Modern dishwashers promise labor saving and gentler care
The article argues dishwashers relieve tedious kitchen cleanup and protect hands from scalding. It notes many women sacrifice dresses to hire help and warns against older machines. Features include galvanized iron cylinders, a fitted basket, boiling water rinse, and simple crank operation. It emphasizes cleaning up before washing and careful scraping to avoid sink clogs.
Sand soap and brush to ease dishwashing
A printed household tip advises keeping a half bar of coarse sand soap within reach for right handed dishwashers. Rub the soap on the bottom and inside of all saucepans, then scrub with a higher placed five cent sink brush. Regular use of sand soap and a special brush is said to lessen the dislike of washing pots and pans. An occasional dip of the pan brush on the soap cake removes grease residuals.
