The dish in question was Boeuf Bour-

My defense was hinged on the fact that the
night before had been to dance that ended
at 800, had run out of gas on the way home and
had a cold, hence no taste buds. Moreover,
didn't feel like cooking.
My hostess had no lard, so used oil to
brown the salt pork and onions, and forgot to
add orange peel and nutmeg to the bouquet
that goes into proper bOurguignon. The end
result was a watery beef stew.

It takes a heap Of living to
make a house a home, and it
takes q good deal more than
just putting up the storm win
dows and turning on the fur
mace to get that home ready
for winter.
MANY homeowners spend
more time and money win
terizing' their cars than they
do their homes" says Dennis
Fabian, housing authority for
Allied Chemicals Barrett d.
vis:Jn. But the smart house
holder knows that a little care
and effort now can return big
dividends in fuel savings and
comfort once those winter
winds begin to blow"
To help the hOmeowner get
started on his "winterizing
program, Mr.. Fabian offers a
list Of the more important
projects that viii help make a
home weathertight:
l. II the house Is not in
sulated, serious consideration
should be given to having
this done now. A properly In
sulated house is cheaper to
heat and q good deal more
comfortable. New develop
mentS, such as urethane foam
insulation boards make 1t easy
for any handyman to apply
insulation to an unfinished
attic floor or exposed roof
beams. Insulating the walls
Of an existing house presents
somewhat more Of a problem
and should be left to a pro-
fessional contractor. He will
drill holes In the outside Of
the house and blow insulation
into the space between the
walls.
2. Weather stripping around
ell windows and doors will cut
down on drafts and help con-
serve fuel. This, too, Is a
lob that can easily be done by
the homeOwner himself.
8. The small vent valves
situated at the top Of each
radiator in the house should
be opened until water beings
to slow and then shut imme-
diateIy. This bleeding" lets
any air that has accumulated
in the radiator escape so that
the heated water can flow
freely through the system.
4. All outside repairs should
be made while weather per-
mits. Remove and replace all
dried out putty and calking to
keep rain and wind from en-
tering through cracks. Check
the shingles and replace any
that are broken or warped.
While up on the roof, inspect
cutters and downspOuts, clean
out any leaves that may have
accumulated and make sure
that downspouts are firmly
connected and secure.
S. Water supplies to outside
faucets should be cut off from
the inside source and the
faucets should be thoroughly
drained to prevent freezing.

The two principal reasons for

hurt real tile. Second, the $50
