SUGGESTS REMEDIES FOR
ICE-COATED WINDSHIELDS

Of all the difficulties that confront
the motorist in winter, few are more
exasperating than the ice-coated
windshield says w. w. Cook, Jr.
Secretary of the Marshall Automobile
Club.
"Alcohol, salt, and glycerine are
three substances that deal very effec-
lively with the ice-coated windshield
he says. "If salt is the substance one
decides to use, it should be applied
when the windshield begins to col
lect ice. This creates brine solution
that will not freeze. It will be nee
essary to apply additional salt from
time to time as the original coating
washes off, but handled properly, the
remedy is one of the most effective.
"Glycerine rubbed on the wind
shield forms a film to which water,
snow and ice will not cling. In some
ways, it is the best of the substances
that may be used as an ice preventive.

BULBS AND ROOTS IN
BASEMENT NEED CARE

Care at this time of bulbs and roots
stored in the basement will have
much to do with the size of the gar
den flower crop of the summer and
fall. Keep them as cool as possible,
says Louis Sando at University Farm.
If dahlias and Gamma roots are dry
and kept too warm great deal of
damage will be done. To prevent
shriveling cover them with more sand
or ashes.
If bulbs now Towering in the home
are intended to be kept for planting
out OF doors do not dry them too rap
idly, he says. Give them water as
long as the foliage remains, but when
the leaves begin to turn yellow re-
duce the water supply gradually,
then store in a cool basement, after
all the leaves have died, until the
summer. After that time plant the
bulbs in clumps.
