To clean glass and glass wares.
For washing windows, looking glasses etc. a little ammonia in the water saves
much labor, aside from giving a better polish than anything else; and for
general housecleaning it removes dirt, smoke and grease most effectually.
Moths in carpets.
Persons troubled with carpet moths may get rid of them by scrubbing the floor
with strong hot salt water before laying the carpet, and sprinkling the carpet
with salt once a week before sweeping.
To clean the inside of jars.
This can be done in a few minutes by filling the jars with hot water and then
stirring in a teaspoonful or more of baking soda. Shake well. Than empty the
jars at once, and if any of the old smell remains, fill again with water and
soda. Shake and rinse well in cold water.
