"What can I do with these dingy
old floors? Until this year they've
been carpeted, but l know that the
house would be more sanitary and
easier to clean with finished floors and
every week. I'd like to get the floors
fixed while the boys are home from
school to help, but l don't know how
to start"
This problem is p%erplexing many
housekeepers who want their homes to
look we'll and at the same time to
make house cleaning easier.
Dull Neutral Color is Best.
The most durable and attractive
finish for a floor depends on the kind
of wood and how it has been treated,
says the United States Department of
Agriculture. Unfinished pine, spruce,
or other softwood floors can be var
nished, stained and vanished, or
painted, depending somewhat on the
condition of the wood and the rest
of the woodwork in the house. What
ever finish is chosen, a dull neutral
color that tones in with walls and fur
nishing is best.
First of all, make the floor as level
and smooth as possible. Plane or
sandpaper rough places, and draw out
all remnants of tacks or drive them be-
low the surface with a nail set.
Then scrub the wood with hot soap
suds or securing powder, and rinse
thoroughly with clear water. Ink
stains and similar spots can often be
bleached out with a solution made by
dissoIving one teaspoonful Of oxalic
acid in one cupful of hot water. This
solution is poisonous and must, OF
course, be carefully handled, also all
traces of it and of soap suds or scour-
ing powder must be removed with
clean water, otherwise they will in
jure the finish used on the floor.
Homemade Stain for Floors.
When the wood is perfectly dry the
stain, paint, or varnish can be APP
piled.
For a pine floor, a good brown stain
can be made by dissolving an ounce
of permanganate Of potash in a quart
of warm water. This liquid is violet
colored, but when applied to wood,
chemical action results and the wood
is stained brown.
Another brown stain for either hard
wood or softwood is made from IL
o,7pooc Of puIvoriznd pi1conita dissolved
in a quart of turpentine.
Apply either of these stains with a
clean brush or 4 sponge. taking eve

the air In the room free from dust De-
fore vanishing. Also, II possible,
have the temperature Of the room ~
degrees Fahrenheit Or higher, and
apply the varnish in the morning, be-
cause it dries better in the daylight.
Brush the varnish in a thin coat with
even strokes parallel with the grain
Of the wood. Allow the floor to dry
for at least two days and apply one or
perhaps two more coats in the same
way.
Painted Floors Easy to Clean.
Good quality paint Of neutral color
also makes a good finish for softwood
floors. At least two coats should be
applied. After the last coat of paint is
dry, a soft lustrous finish can be
given with equal parts Of linseed oil
and %turpentine. Rub this on with a
soft cloth, and polish the floor with
a wooden cloth.

Use Best Quality Of Varnish.
Varnish is generally preferred on
soft floors, and the best quality of
shellac varnish or that especially rec
commended for floors should be used.
Some varnishes are unsuitable for
floors because they leave a hard, brit
tie coating that is easily marred and
wears off quickly. Shellac varnish may
be mixed at home as follows:
Two pounds gum shellac.
One-half pound castor oil.
One gallon alcohol denatured according
to United States revenue formula No. 1.
Put these ingredients into a well-stop-
pered bottle in a warm place, and shake
the mixture frequently until the shellac
is dissolved. The alcohol should not
contain more than 5 per cent of water,
and care should be taken not to drop any
water into it as it is being mixed with
the dry shellac. The castor oil aids In
making varnish flexible and less brittle
when dry, but may be omitted. In thai
case the quantity of gum shellac should
be increased to 2a pounds. If too thick,
this varnish may be thinned by the addi-
ton Of more alcohol.
Have the surface of the wood and

A growing paper has the power to help you sell
your merchandise-always reaching out for new
territory, new prospects for advertisers. The
paper that holds the interest of the public and is
read from beginning to end is the paper that links
