THE HONE ITS PROBLEMS <4VD ITS INTERESTS
CLEAN CELLARS.

Cellars that are coated with white
wash, in which there is a small percent
age of chloride of lime. have q disin-
fectant strong enough to counteract the
damp odor so noticeable In most base
ments, and If kept well cleaned, properly
ventilated and water tight, will be as
sanitary as living rooms.
All cellars should be whitewashed at
least three times a year to keep them
clean and make the walls light. A 5 per
cent solution of chloride of lime as dis
infectant viii help purify the air and
make 1t sweet and wholesome.
Every woman has her own idea Of
cleaning a cellar, but safe plan TO fol-
low is TO sweep it thoroughly with a stiff
broom twice OF three times in a week
and have all the windows open at the
time. SO the dust win not settle again
on the floor or walls. Any rubbish or
waste from vegetables should of course,
be taken out as soon as ii is made, for
II left for several days when the wealth
er is hot It will fill the rooms with OF
II the floor is of dirt a corn broom
should be used. and is then easily clean
ed by brushing; but with cement,
asphalt brick or stone sweeping three
times a week is not sufficient, for there
is dirt in the corners and on the floor
that nothing but hot water will clean.
On every side one hears complaints
from persons about damp, bad smelling
cellars and when they are inspected we
usually find the foulness is largely be-
cause of improper ventilation. The win
dows should be thrown open and left so
for several hours each day to let in all
the fresh air possible. So little sunshine
ever creeps IN a basement an extra
amount of fresh air is required TO keep II
wholesome. If necessary to get rid of
the tfampness- a fire should be started in
a stove put in the. basement or in a
damp autumn in the furnace and should
be kept burning until the floor and walls
are dTV
The Washington times., 1905-08-17
Windows Screened.

The windows and outside doors, If
there are any. should be as carefully
screened as in living rooms during the
summer season To prevent insects from
destroying any vegetables or fruits that
are stored there, and with the openings
well protected no woman will hesitate
to have plenty of ventilation. The most
important point of all, however, is to
have a cellar water tight, and no person
should rest until the basement walls
and floor are as dry as the rooms up
stairs. For besides the damage a damp
ground floor does TO the rest of the
house, it endangers the health of the
occupants.
Continually living in damp rooms low
ers the vitality and reduces the strength,
producing q physical condition that
invites rheumatism, cold, pneumonia,
dIphtheria, and occasionally typhoid
\ damp cellar is considered so detri-
mental TO health that If, after a certain
Leriod, the basement is not put in
proper condition, the residents are or
dered to vacate and the house is closed
Until such time as the cellar is dry.
DamDness in basement is either
caused by bad sewerage, leaks in the
walls or because the basement has rot
been properly built. If water is seen
here il leaks through should be found
at once and cemented or If little de-
presSions in the floor are damp or
filed with water they should be re-
paired. If beads of water appear on the
walls and no leak can be found, il is
usually because the water in the earth
surrounding the walls is not carried
away To prevent this Gampness on the
inside and TO make the rooms water
tight, il IS often necessary TO dig q
trench about the house on a level with
the basement floor, and drain the water
into Il sewer, but as this Is expensive,
many persons will live for years in un-
healthy. houses rather than do il.
Where the tidewater backs up and rush
IS into cellars, as ii often does in houses
built naar the sea, the best plan | know
o. TO keep a dry cellar IL 10 fix il like q
tOat. and make Il practically water
pi oof and entirely water tight with tar,
tar paper and cement.
On the outside OF the inner wall put
tar paper over this put a layer of tar
two nr three inches deep, then a coat
ing Of cement at least six inches wide,
and f.ish with an outside brick wall.
With the floor made n the same wa
anyone wilt have a Waterught cellar
whether on a waterfront or constructed
Cn rocks.
No matter how damp cellar is, it
can be made water tight and dry If per-
siStent!y worked with.

being portion Of personal letter
received by me from j. G. Hayter,
who Is mayor of Dallas, Polk county,
Oregon, and editor of the Polk Coun-
ty Observer. Mr.. Hayter was our
guest last year while attending the
press association, and knows whereof
he speaks:
81 note with much pleasure the
steady Development of the famous
Hood River valley. The excellence of
its products has indeed won for it
world fame, and yet its era of
prosperity has only just begun. A
railroad circling the valley will prove
of inestimable Importance in hasten
ing the progress of development, and
your people positively cannot afford
to be without. | am sure that the en-.
terprising business men of Hood
River and the wide-awake farmers
and orchardists of the valley fully ap-
preciate this fact, and that the i'm
provement will be carried forward to
an early completion with the same
zeal and enthusiasm that have char
acterized every undertaking of Hood
River people in the past That such
a road win pay from the first day that
a train is run over the line, no one
who has ever visited your fertile and
populous valley will doubt. As one
who is interested in the development
of every portion of our grand state,
| am greatly pleased to hear of the
bright prospects for the completion of
the Hood River railroad this coming
summer. "

The Careless
ness of Man

Is often the cause of bitter disap-
pointments. The modern man
looks after the future welfare OF
his family by buying life insur-
ance, Government bonds or some
other safe investment, and neg
lects one thing that possibly
would be more consolation and
comfort in case he was called
away. And that is a modern pho
tograph; 900 of our business is
women and children. The men
are always putting it off until
finally a black gowned woman
brings in an old tin-type taken
when John was 20, and has it cop
led. Not much comfort, but it's
all she has. Don't you think a
small investment in photography
would be a good one for you?
