Caring For Your Silver

A simple way to clean your silver is to put it into an aluminum pan with sour milk and let it stand for a few hours.  Then rinse in hot water and polish.  If your silver is going to be stored for any length of time, then put a piece of camphor with it or rub the silver with Vaseline or sweet oil.  When possible to do so, stand the flat silver in large glass top fruit jars with a pad at the bottom.  Cover the top with cotton and place a piece of camphor in the jar.  Then screw the lid on the jar. This makes an airtight container and keeps the silver perfectly without tarnish.
