Are you prepared for winter?

will you be able to put another
log on the fire and say, Let 1t howl,

Despite all modern Improvements,
a systematic fall checkup will save
annoyance later when streets are
icy and delivery and service are at
a premium. If you are coal user,
it might be wise to have the size
of the coal bin doubled this fall so
that you may not have to worry
about delivery in the midst of
snowy spell. Also have the heater
all f1ues and drafts checked for
worn-out parts, rust and ease of op-
Grafton
Any cracks or breaks in the fur
mace surface should be mended with
cement, if yours is an oil burner,
so that the fuel flow is correct and
ready to go. If yours is coal stoker,
see that it is properly oiled and
remove any ash or coal Jumps in
the hopper. See that gauges and
water level register properly, and be
sure that radiators do not have
rusted valves.

spouts in good condition so that you
will have no roof trouble with i'm
proper water run-off. Check around
the flashing at dormer windows,
over doors and on the sun deck
A leak after a thaW in winter may
start SO quickly and do so much
damage before it can be checked
that it will pay you to go over
things and check carefully now
Plan to cover your lockwood and
brace your fine evergreens so ice
will not harm them. Remove all
distractions to snow removal to
your garage, service entrance, or
basement entrance, and be sure that
cellar windows and areaways have
proper drainage. If you have an
underground garage, see that it has
a floor drain in working condition,
or you may find it necessary to
chop your car out of the ice some
winter morning.
Watch for Insects.
Ants and termites have the same
idea about tucking themselves in
for the winter. Look around the
foundation of your house and see
if you can discover the tubes that

year, we thought it was from the
dry season. Now we are wondering
if it is from blasting for new road
500 feet away. We drilled II feet
through solid rock without getting
water. The well cannot be dyna-
mited because it is in our basement.
What else can be done?
A Blasting for the new road may
easily have disturbed the under
ground watercourses that formerly
supplied your well. Drilling new
we'll in a more favorable location
would seem to be the remedy. Get
the opinion of a local well driller.
Broken Ivory.
@. The ivory handle on my pocket
book has broken off. How can fix
it back into place?
A. If the broken pieces of the ivory
are thin and Spindly no kind of
cement will hold If they are fairly
thick, use a kind of cement that
looks like varnish and comes in a
tube; get it at hardware store.
Holes Around Pipes.
@. Water pipes in the bathroom
of my top floor apartment project
about three inches from the wall.
The hot water pipe of the bathtub
has large hole around it. Various
filings crack and fall out How
can we close the hole?
A. At a hardware store or at a
plumbers you can get metal fange
to be snapped around the pipe to
cover the holes. Flanges of this
sort are used to cover holes in floors
around steam pipes. An alterna-
tive is to cut a piece of heavy oil
cloth like a doughnut to fit around
the pipe and to be stuck to the
wall, being painted or otherwise fin
ished to match. Being flexible. this
will not be affected by expansion
and contraction of the pipe.
@. Would you recommend alum
mum foil backed with felt for the
insulation of an attic, between the
rafters and in the floor? Is the foil
likely to lose its efficiency by becom-
ing dull?
A. Aluminium foil has been proven
to be excellent for attic insulation.
Reports of tests indicate that dulling
of the surface by dust or otherwise
has little or no effect on the insulat-
ing quality.

Checkup Of Heating Equipment Now
May Prevent Annoyonces Later

Another way of feeling tucked in"
for the winter is to install inSula-
ton. A cold wall or floor or a draft
down the stairway from the top
floor often indicate where you might
use insulation with economy and
protection. Almost a third of your
houses heat may be lost through
the walls and another IA per cent
through the attic and roof. You
can cut heating bills if you insulate
your house. There are types that
can be sprayed into walls and others
to be laid between rafters in base
ment or attic.
Windows Can Waste Heat.
Windows. too, may be great heat
wasters. If you need new ones, or
are building, investigate the new
double-glass kind with the dead-air
space which serves as insulation.
Otherwise, reputty around the panes
of glass, fix sash cords and be sure
the catches hold the windows tight
to the frame. If you have windy

of storm windows will help ma
terially.
