By GEORGE E. CREED

When you think Of tulips,
you usually think Of Holland.
Strangely enough. they didn't
originate there. Tulips came
from Turkey. where they were
first developed.
The Turks introduced them
to Southern Europe by way Of
military invasion. The bulbs
later found their way to Hol-
land. At one time the Dutch
were seized by a mania for
growing and breeding tulips,
This mania reached its peak
in the year 1880 when as much
as $4,000 was paid for a single
bulb!
Thanks TO the Dutch, who
have always maintained an in
tense interest in tulip culture
we have tulips today undoubt-
edly far more beautiful than
the one that sold at such a
fabulous price centuries ago.
Fortunately. too. they are
much cheaper today.
You can get q wealth Of sat
isfaction from tulips. provided
you follow q few simple rules:
/. Always buy top quality
bulbs from q reputable firm.
(These should measure from 4
to 5 inches around for best
f1rst-year results.)
2. Plant them carefully In
good. well-drained topsoil.
8. Don't forget to take care

HOUSE DOCTOR
BY HERMAN BAUM

1.-THE development house that
I bought has no cutters to
conduct rain water from the
roof, Estimates that ! have
received for installing them
seem high and so / am think
ing Of doing the work myself.
What would be your sug-
gestion?" p. L. r. writes.
Answer-Our job is to help
homeowners help themselves.
But before you condemn the
contractors for oyerpricing the
work, determine the quantity
Of material that you win re-
quire and get q price on it.
If you decide to go ahead
with the job, an easy material
for you to install is the alu-
minum gutter that is made for
do : 1t yourselfers. This has
slip joint fittings that make it
possible for you to do the en-
tire job with no soldering or
riveting and its light weight
makes it practically q one
man operation.
Two. styles of cutters are
available. The formed, or ogee
gutter, is higher in cost but it
has the advantage Of blending
IN with the architecture of
most houses. The half-round
gutter is a trifie easier to install
and it may be to your advan-
tage to use 1t on the back Of
the house. Separate slip-joint
fittings are made for both
styles. There are also inside
ana outside elbows and sections
having connections for down.
spouts. Rectangular down.
spouts are used with the
formed cutters and round
downspouts are used with the
half-round cutters.
When you purchase the gut
tiers, get q can Of aluminium
colored caulking compound.
This material is pressed into
the slip-joint fittings when the
gutter is assembled so that the
connection will be watertight
Hangers are also attached al
this time. There should b.
one hanger about six niche:
From each end. intermediate
hangers should be spaced three
10 four feet apart. The closel
dimension is desirable fol
heavy ice loads. The hanger
IS attached to the roof under
the second row of shingles 81

Own Roof Cutters

SpoutS Of one inch for every
10 feet. One downSpout ordi-
narily serves no more than Is
feet Of gutter. As an example.
suppose the gutter that you
are installing is 40 feet long.
The high point should be 90
feet from either end and q
downspout located at each end.
Each downspout requires
three elbows. These are in
stalled to bring the leader back
against the house. where it is
fastened with two straps. one
placed near each end. A two
story house viii require four
or more straps.
A concrete splash block Is
an important part Of the in
stallation. This should be not
less than three feet long and
sloped so as to direct the water
away from the foundation.
Care Of Bamboo Curtains
Il have some painted match
stick bamboo cafe curtains.
How can they be cleaned? The
tapes and loops at the tops are
also quite soiled." z. E. 7.
writes.
Answer-n these curtains are
of good quality, they probably
are painted with q material
that will Withstand mild wash
ing. The best idea is to put q
few inches of tepid water into
the bathtub. Add laundry de-
tergent and then swish the
curtains around in this. You
may have to use q brush on the
binding. Rinse under fresh
water and hang in q shady
place to dry.
WIN Cork Buckle?
II am considering using cork
title instead Of wood parquet
flooring for the top surface Of
q concrete floor. Do you think
that the cork win buckle as
badly as / understand the wood
floor does?" Mrs. J. E. E. wants
to know.
Answer-Installed under the
proper conditions, either floor
should give good service. But
neither is recommended for in
stallation over concrete that is
! apt to be damp. The floor
should be at least IL inches
above grade and the ground
sloped away from the build
ling. There must be no visible
evidence Of dampness on the
concrete at any time. Since
cork tile is relatively expen-
sive, 1t is not recommended for
Ia do-it-yourseh project when II
is to be installed over concrete.
Better leave it for an expert
With lots Of experience at the
.ijob.
