Removing Spots
On Oak Floors
Simple Method Listed;
Job Is inexpensive

Spots and stains similar 10 wa
ter stains may be removed from
an oak floor without going TO the
trouble and expense OF scraping
the entire floor. Wax can be re-
moved with turpentine, cleaning
the wax down 10 the bare wood, II
the floor has not been vanished,
and then rewaXing the bare spots.
If the stains are in the wood itself,
the spots should be treated with a
solution of oxalic acid after the
removal OF the wax.
After permitting the acid "a
stand over night. all traces of il
should be washed away, and the
floor rewaxed. II the floor has
been vanished and waxed. the
wax should first be wiped off with
turpentinc, and il the stain ex-
tended through the varniSh, the
varniSh should be removed with a
good NarniSh remover. after which
the stain, If II has extended into
the wood itself, can be given the
oXalic acid treatment. with the
acid thoroughly washed off after
wards, the same as in the case
Of an unvarniShed floor, and then
revarnished and rewaXed. If pores
are apparent in the wood, a coat
of wood filler should be put on
and allowed TO dry thoroughly be.
fore the application OF the varnish
In most cases, the best results
are achieved by cleaning off and
rehnlShing the entire floor board
10 its ends and edges. rather than
by confning the job 10 the stained
spots, for in this way a much more
uniform result will be obtained.

.HomeOWners
Are Saving Fuel
With Insulation

Detroit homeowners are respond
ing to the governmen is rec-
ommendation that homes be
insulated before cold weather sets
in, to save every possible pound
of coal and gallon of oil formerly
wasted by heat leaking outdoors.
Lowell T. Smell, local representa-
tive for Johns-Manville, reports.
"a check up OF local insulation
companies showed that almost
seven times as many rock wool
insulation jobs have been COM
pleted this year than during all
last year-and this buying Inn
petus is In large measure n
result OF government endorse
ment of rock wool as a vital war
economy measure" said Smell.
Foreseeing the shortage which
has already brought about ration-
ing Of fuel oil. the Bureau of Mines
of the United States Department
OF the Interior prepared An in
formation circular which em-
phaSizes the need for rock wool
as a conservation measure.
In this circular. Paul M. Tyler,
chief engineer of the non-metal
economics division states:
"It has been estimated con-
servatively that fuel 10 heat the
average home In accordance
with modern standards OF COM
fort would cost about SIS n year
without insulation. With insula-
tiOn. the cost for this same
house would be only about $40"
The circular shows that study
Of 200. 900 defense houses proved
insulation could save at least
SIS, 100000 If properly installed
"And now. with credit restric-
tions removed by the Federal
Reserve Board, every Detroit
homeowner no matter how
modest his budget--can purchase
rock wool on terms often liberal
enough TO allow payment To he

Neglected Roof Repairs

old shingles are obviously in too

The cost Of applying now roof

IS quickly paid for both by the
money saved on interior repair

The saving on fuel Is par
