Precaution Needed in
Vanishing in Winter

The drying of varnish Is retarded
by cold weather, extremely hot wealth
er and damp, muggy weather. Conse-
quently, it should be applied, for besn
results, at an average temperature, R
possible, of approximately 20 degrees
Fahrenheit
In reality varnish dries by oxEesa,-
tion, and consequently plenty of cool,
dry air is necessary to make a varnish
dry properly. Therefore, after doing.
inside work open the windows an incfn
or two top and bottom so as to give
the room plenty of ventilation. It's
a mistake to close a room tight after
it has been vanished
If vanishing is done in cold weather
it is advisable to heat the building
properly during the work 1t Is also
important that the varnish itself
should be near 70 degrees Fahrenheit
Chilled varnish should never be-
used. Watch this point carefully, aS
it is liable to become chilled in a cold
shop. or room, or even in carrying it
outdoors for distance in cold wealth
er. In this case, it should be warmed
up before used.
Always be very certain that the un-
dercoat of varnish is thoroughly dry
before applying the following coat.
This is very important, for if another
coat is put on partially dried varnishy
the finished job will be very liable to-
turn out badly in the following ways
1t may crack, as the undercoat win
continue to dry, and in so doing pull
the finishing coat apart, as all var
nishes contract when drying.
1t may lose its gloss in places, due
to the finishing coat sinking into the
soft undercoat.
1t may form very minute wrinkles;
in places, giving the appearance of a
cross-cut file to the surface.
Never use cheap or adulterated
varnish for an undercoat, as it is La
BILE to cause the finishing coat to crack,
Never add linseed oil to varnlsh, as
it retards and even prevents it from
drying.
Never add turpentine to varnish, as
it tends to destroy the gloss of the
varnish and make the resulting coat
of varnish so thin that 1t will not wear
properly Always remember that OH
and turpentine in the proper amounts.
are added when the ingredients are
boiling hot, and these ingredients be-
come thoroughly amalgamated while
the varnish is cooking and aging.
However. after the varnish has become
cold. nothing can be added without
materially hurting the qualities of the
varnish.

Bird Migration

In certain parts of the ocean are TO
be found "bad atmospheric belts" In
which atmospherics of great intensity
are experienced at all times OF the
year. and it has been noted that these
belts nearly always coincide with a
route of bird migration. 1t is an In
teresting problem as to how far the
birds in their passage are able to
sense these magnetic disturbances.

Dark Rooms

Light, warm colors make a dark,
cold room appear just the opposite.
For rooms on the sunny side of the
house use the cooler colors. Blue,
green and gray make rooms appear
larger; yellow. red and orange make
them appear smaller. Large areas
should always be III subdued tones.
Horizontal panels of WOOD or color ap-
