The condition. OF the steel and metal

For over year jobbers in all lines but

How to Use Some Stains For Pine
Floors.

How to Use Some Stains For Pine
Floors.
How can the ordinary pine floor be
made presentable without covering II
with carpet2 This IL a problem which
is perplexing many housewives.
A number OF stains and varnishes
which have proved satisfactory for
such floors have been worked out BY
students In household management In
the home economics department at the
college OF agriculture, university Of
Wisconsin.
Before applying the stains the floor
should be carefully smoothed with
sandpaper or steel wool. II the floor Is
soft or very old Ill the pores OF the
wood and all cracks with filler. A
good paste for this purpose may be
made from whiting or starch mixed
with either oil or turpentine. Shellac
varnish liz often sufficient IL the larger
cracks are first filled with the paste
mixture. The floor should dry for
twenty hours and be sandpapered for
second time before the stain is APP
piled
Here is a good method for giving
pine floor a pleasing finish with a
slightly yellow maple color: Apply
two coats OF mixture Of one-half
ounce burnt lumber. one quart OF raw
linseed oil and two and oDe-half
ounces Of yellow ocher. Allow the floor
to dry well and then wax.
TO give floor good brown tiDse
make a stain Of one pint boiled lin
seed oil. one tablespoonful burnt UNI
Der, one pint Of turpentine, one table
spoonful sienna and two tablespoon
fuls chrome yellow. This stain will
serve as a filler as well as finish Oh
a smooth floor with no cracks. Apply
two coats and then wax.
For a light finish for pine floor APP
ply ammonia before the filler 10 pene-
trate the wood and darken II slightly
After the filler IL dry sandpaper and
apply two coats Of yarnisb, rubbing
each coat with powdered pumice stone.
