Montana farmer-stockman., 1956-08-15

when I step outide the door in order
to enjoy the sight of setting sun and
coming night, then must forget the
scene because a hundred squadrons
start to buzz. From ev'ry angle they
descend, each one of them inserts an
end into most ev'ry inch of space
upon my tender arms and face; be-
fore I can retreat inside, I've got
burning, itching hide.
The world has many kinds of pest,
but 'cept for skeeters all the rest
at least can offer some excuse for
why Ma Nature turned 'em loose.
For instance, worms stir up the
ground and snakes eat insects by the
pound; our scientists make tests on
rats, and mice are meals for hungry
cats. My neighbours value isn't
great, but he's good debating
mate; and though Mirandy makes
me fuss because she's so obstreper-
Gus, at least she keeps me fed, it's
true, and does a lot of choring, too.
So I'll admit that even she beats
skeeters, for utility. 49,.

can't take daylight. but beware
of storing things away without
proper protection or else you may
be like q certain female acQuain-

Paint For Ping Pong Table
What kind Of paint should I
use for a ping-pong table top?"
Mrs. c. C. w. asks.
Answer-Excellent results can
be obtained by using any good
grade sernigloSs enamel. This
should be applied over an enamel
Iundercoater that has been
Isanded smooth. It Is customary
to paint the table green with q
white border. If the white and
green paint are allowed to over
lap, it will form q ridge that
will defect balls that strike it.
For this reason, masking tape
should be used to prevent the
Overlap.

BY HERMAN BAUM

During the heavy rains we
had last fall, the window wells
around my cellar windows filed
with water. Then they over
flowed into the cellar, running
Everything stored there. This
does not happen with normal
rains. but I want to be pre-
pared for the next flood. Can
you recommend a cure for this
condition." o. j. K. asks.
Answer-You had plenty of
company. I did a little baling in
my own cellar where water came
i in through the wells at the
gable ends of the house. In most
cases where water reaches the
cellar through the window wells,
it is because there are no gut
tiers on the house or else the
downspouts empty the water
where it can flow into the wells.
I had this problem, too, and
corrected it by installing cutters.
The downspouts should lead
to dry wells dug at least ten
feet away from the house, but
If this is too much of a project.
be sure that they are installed
in such a manner as to defect
the water away from the house.
The ideal way to correct flood
ed window wells can only be
accomplished where the house is
built on high ground. It then is
possible to construct a drain
from the bottom of the wells
with the pipe leading to a dry
well or a low spot on your
property. On level ground this
plan would place the dry well too
far below the surface to be
practical. Four-inch terra Gotta
pipe or agricultural tile is used
for the drain.
In my own home, rains Of this
size occur so seldom that I did
not consider it worth while to
make extensive alterations to the
wells at the gable ends of the
house. took care of this prob
lem by building portable wood
covers to place over the wells
when the weatherman recon-
mended that we drop the anchor.
If the condition is more serious
at your home, you might consider
making a permanent installation
of these covers. Attach them to
the side of the house with hinges

and hold them in the raised po-
sition with q length of plumbers
chain running to q hook on the
window sill above. You can then
lower them without getting
drenched and they will be easier
to find after a high wind.
Protection From Moths
"Is 1t necessary to protect
woolens from moth damage dur
ing the winter months? have
never done it but people tell me
that I should" Mrs. c. C. F..
writes.
: Answer-It would be nice If
moths went somewhere else dur
ing the winter. 1t would be even
better if they went somewhere
else permanently, but unfortu-
nately, they do not and the cold
weather just whets their appetite.
