I have just moved back to
Washington after spending z
years in Los Angeles.
Cost Of groceries and meat
is comparable but fresh fruits
and vegetables are always
available at all seasons and in
general, much cheaper than
they are in Washington. Fro
zen foods and juices are
cheaper, If bought in quanti-
ties at the very frequent week
end competitive sales at the
super market grocery stores.
Heating bills are Of course
much less than here. Clothing
costs are less because there is
little seasonal change in cloth
ing requirements. Whether
you rent or buy you will very
likely have to furnish most of
your own major appliances.
Very few rent or buy houses
are equipped with either stove
or refrigerator. Furniture and
appliances cost about the same
as here.
Climate and location and
cost Of renting or buying are
all tied together. I will ex-
plain the climate first because
the weather is my profession
and ! have answered many
questions on the variations
of climate in Los Angeles.

QUERIES?


mrs. w. M. r., Siluer Spring.
I am wondering If any one
can tell me where I can pur-
chase the handmade rugs that
are woven Of felt. A friend Of
mine has q pair Of them and
she purchased them from
some one who was selling
them from door to door. I
would very much like to find
out where I could buy some,
or would even be interested in
finding out how to make them.
/ am also wondering if any
one could tell me how to clean
the aluminium drip pans under
the burners on an electric
stove. I have tried all kinds
Of cleansers and it seems to
be an all-day job, and all the
burned, stubborn spots won't
come of at that. ! have tried
covering them with aluminium
foil, which looks fine, but still
the drip pans need securing
some and I just can't seem to
find the proper cleanser.
I have the plug-in type de-
froSter for my refrigerator.
The defroster works fine, but
I find that the water goes all
over my refrigerator. Is there
q pan on the market made for
this job? My refrigerator is
about 6 years old. I have
stopped using the defroSter
because the water goes in my
food, etc. I would love to be
able to use the defroSter. 1t
would save a messy job and
lots Of time.
CHROME CHAIR PROBLEM.
mrs. H. E. H., RockDille)
I had the same trouble with
chrome kitchen chairs. AS a
temporary measure ! put mar
row adhesive tape all around
under the rung. then waxed
and polished the adhesive. The
tape does not show and the
wax keeps it from sticking to
the floor. This tape has been
on for almost a year, and does
not show any sign Of wear. I
would think the same would
work on metal rests, just cut
q small disk. My chairs do
not get too much use. If chill
dren use your chairs it would
be easy enough to change the
tape when worn.
