Save Work in Removing Corn-Silk

From a farm woman who was preparing dinner for a harvest crew, I learned a quick and successful way of removing the silk from ears of corn. She used a whisk-broom. First she removed the husks, then brushed the ears toward the stem end, and all the silk was removed with but a minimum amount of work.-M. P., Ithaca, N. Y.
