I am wondering what ex-
perience you readers have
had with carpet Sweepers. I
have a small child. a puppy
and many crumbs. It is neces-
sary to haul out the vacuum
cleaner many times a day, so
1 wonder if carpet sweepers
would be a good substitute.
Do they work well on braided
rugs and on bare floors?
I have another question.
Our house has a tile drain
board in the kitchen sink.
1t has a definitely sour odor,
and the cleansers I have
tried do no good. Is there
any way I can get rid of the
odor without replacing the
tile? Thank you.

For years both my wife
and I have found that the

The earlier in the life of the

I would suggest also that
you look at Leaflet Number

You might also investigate

Aid Planned
For Business
Hit by Ban

The State Roads Commission
of Maryland has established a
policy to aid individuals and
businesses along roads on which
vehicles carrying axle-loads of
certain weight are restricted.
John B. Funk, Chairman-Di-
rector of the Commission, made
this statement:
winter weather of a severe
nature is endangering many of
our older secondary highways.
Pot holes and frost boils are ap-
pearing at an alarming rate.
'In order to hold damage to
minimum and, in some cases,
to prevent total breakup of a
road, we are keeping heavy
loads off them.
"These restrictions can save
heavy repair bills in the future.
However, the Commission
realizes that many individuals
who live along these posted
roads and firms doing business
on them sometimes have to haul
loads heavier than allowed.
"The Commission does not
want to cause undue hardship
on farmers or other individuals
on these roads and does not
want to hamper business activ'
ity which could lead to employees
being furloughed.
"In order to help in situations
like these, the Commission has
authorized its district engineers
to consult with affected individ
uals and firms.
Perhaps alternate routes car
be worked out and, in some cas-
es, the district engineers will be
able to permit limited use of the
roads by affected firms and in
dividuals."
