| *"Blue horse" answer - On "Laundry Day" your Great grandmother and grandmother | |
| had a special way to make white shirts and linens come out of the wash clean and a bright white. | |
| They added a liquid dye called "Bluing" to the shirts during the wash. | |
| "Bluing" contains a blue dye or pigment taken up | |
| by fabrics in the wash or rinse. "Bluing" absorbs the yellow part of the light spectrum, | |
| counteracting the natural yellowing of many fabrics. | |
| Today competitors exhibiting their white horses at fairs and parades | |
| use "Bluing" to make the horse coat a bright "show stopping" white. | |
