The newest equipment to fight
fire and incendiary bombs is a stir

Grated easily by one person. The

Of a new plastic tubing. The pump

As the fakes spread as they dis
solve. they should be carried only
to within about a foot and = hall
OF either side Of the driveway.
The amount OF fakes to be ap-
piled at one time depends on the
clay or earth content Of the sur
face. Two applications each sea-
son usually are enough to maintain
a dust free driveway. The first ap-
plication should be about three
quarters to one and one-quarter
pounds a square yard. When dry
ness appears after the first treat
ment the second application should
be administered.
These fakes. which are harmless
and nonstaining, may be applied tt
gravel, bluestone, shell, cinders ano
earth. The two applications gen
orally cost only Z or ; cents a square
yard each season.

LOW-CoSt WOODWORK.
You often can make a house more
attractive and livable with only
slight changes in the cabinetwork
and the Government recommends
improvements of this type up to $500
over = period OF II months.
Cabinetwork is now available at
low cost because OF large scale pro-
duction by well known manufsc-
turer. This manufacturers line in
cludes many items to improve the
home. Beautiful doorways are a
problem. If you need more places
to put things consider a china closet
for corner or side wall, with shelves
above for displaying china and
space below for linens. There are
commodious kitchen cabinets, nicely
detailed, with space for everything
Windows also are featured.

Railing an the Paint,


Brushes are not the only devices
that can transfer paint from cans to
walls. There is a tool which rolls
the paint onto the surface. With
the paint brush bristle situation
serious this new roller may offer an
answer to the problem.
The tool consists Of 4 wooden
roller covered with a resilient fabric
cushion. The cushiony surface OF
the roller can take up and hold 4
lot of paint and distributes 1t evenly
without tapping or streaking when
rolled over the wall.
Effortless to use, the roller was
designed especially for the applica-
ton of the new resin-emulsion wall
finishes which hide most surfaces in
one coat and dry rapidly to a mat
finish. 1t can be used to apply the
paint to wallpaper, brick. vallbosrd,
plaster or painted walls.

marily for incendiary bomb fires,
also can be used against japanese
