To make a camp broom get a
smooth stick three feet long with a
crotch four inches from the end.
Lash a. double handful of small,
tough twigs about the crotch; if you
have no heavy cord. tie the twigs
with bark of willow elm or hick-
ory. A stiff branch bent in a thin
oval around the brush end, about
10 inches from the tips and dashed
through and through, will hold the
brush fiat and cover more surface.
Trim the tip ends to make an even
brush.
A rake Is made OF a pole with a
cross bar that has eight or 10 anger
holes, through which short, tough
wooden pegs are driven. The cross
bar should be reinforced by a stiff
branch lashed firmly to the handle
and ends of the bar.
You can make a wooden shovel
by splitting a piece out of the heart
of a good-sized stick of stove wood
and trimming it down to the shape
desired, the shovel and handle be-
ing in one piece. The cutting edge
car be hardened by seasoning, and
by slightly charring the edge in a
fire.
Make a dish mop or scrub brush
by %splinting the end of a. tough,
green piece of witch hazel, hickory,
ash, or ONE other straightforward
wood, an inch and a half in dia-
meter. Then turn back over the
splintered end carefully cut shavings
trimmed down to leave a smoothly
finished handle. The length should
be 10 to Ii inches, the brush end
being three to five inches. Firm
ly bind the bent over ends with a
heavy cord Or tough bark to hold
them in place.
For a wash basin, take a log 10
inches in diameter and two feet long,
split 1t in half and hollow-it out by
hewing with a hand ak. It won't
be handsome, but it will be service
able. When you want hot water
bend a slender stick into the shape
of fire tongs, which can be used to
lift hot rocks out of the fire and
drop them into the wooden wash ba-
sin to make the water boil.
