Clean Up Nails, Etc.

A CONTINUOUS cleanup campaign
should be made in every farmstead to
keep down nails, sharp pieces of iron
and tin, and such materials as are
likely to puncture tires, bare feet and
so on. I have pretty well solved this
problem by mailing gallon cans on the
buildings and fence posts where I pass
by frequently. When see a nail or
something dangerous I pick it up and
toss it into the nearest can and then
empty these at frequent intervals

Working Under Car

WHEN I WISH to grease or change
oil or work underneath the car, I use
my tractor loader or scoop to lift one
end of the car the desired height for
greasing or working. / fasten one end
of log chain to each end of the car
bumper or axle front, or back as de-
sired, and then to the tractor scoop
so it cannot slip sideways. Also, I put
a box or small drum under each lifted
wheel and chock the other wheels as
safeguard in case the scoop clutch
might slip. This saves lot of time
and avoids working in close quarters.

depending on the size of the rock. I
fasten these together at the rear with
log chain, and fasten them with an
other log chain at the front to the trac-
tor drawbar as shown. The posts crowd
under the rock and serve as runners or
slids and keep the rock from digging
into the ground. The posts can be cas-
lily removed without moving the rock.

The spacious dining room,
considered an essential for gra-
cious living a generation ago, is
not entirely a thing of the past.
Large dining rooms still are
found in older homes, and even
in some Of the newer houses
more space is being allowed for
dining.
A large dining room should
not present a problem from a
decorative standpoint: 1T can
easily be made into one Of the
most useful, lived-in rooms in
the house.
There are many ways in which
this room can serve as dual
purpose room. With plenty of
easily pulled-up chairs, it makes
an ideal space for television
viewing. A sofa-bed in the room
provides extra seating facilities
as well as comfortable sleeping
quarters for an overnight guest;
the dining table also can be used

The first step in decorating

scheme from the draperies. This

leries is an essential factor with
