RA 5-1764 | Drudgery Gone From Windows A new development in windows promises to lighten the drudgery and reduce the toll of household casualties attendant on window cleaning and painting. Now the cash of a wood window can be lifted out from inside the house! It saves today's home- owner about 50 per cent of the time required for eleaning a non- removable sash No ladders are needed to reach second-storey windows; screens and storm windows can be quickly installed or removed from/ inside the house. Quality wood windows are a wise home investment, but how do you tell a quality window: Here are several things to look or. Good wood windows are treat- ed with a toxic chemical pre- servative to prevent decay or at- tack by termites. Look for the "preservative treated" seal on a wood window. Windows must be weather-tight, easy to operate, and easy to maintain. Look at the window frame: It should be sturdy, square and true. Be sure to consider the type of Professional Aid For Home Owners Professional advice in land- scaping the home property usual- ly is more desirable for the home owner. However, there are some simple rules which every home owner should know. The purpose of landscaping is to tie your home into the sur- rounding land area in such a way that it will create a pleasing pic- ture to you, and your neighbors. Frame the house with plants and trees. Foundation plants should be low growing in order not to ob- glass wused. Common window glass ranges from grades with imperfections -- waves and bub- bles -- to grades with mo per- ceptible flaws. Premium plate glass, special-ordered, may be tinted to reduce glare, or made heat-absorbing by the addition of a bluish-green dye. Quality pays for itself. Good wood windows will give you a '"'house-time" of comfort, conven- fence, and economy. And, the new removable ones make their care much easier. scure windows as the plants ma- ture.. Trees should be off the corners of the house so that they serve as a frame rather than obscuring the home. Stand direefly in cen- tre front of your house; then look at the corners of the house. Trees should be placed outside the triangle formed by your posi tion on the sidewalk and the two corners of the house. Garden living is a studied way oi life. The garden "living room" should be planted for family dine ing and entertaining with privacy. This can. be achieved with low plants in the foreground and higher plants im the back- ground. Landscape nurserymen are pros fessionally trained in landscaping and perhaps can do the best job for you. Many do-it-yourselfers working together with their nursery men, can achieve proper and good- looking results. It is an established fact that good landscaping helps increase the resale value of the home, | | The Place For All Your GARDENING SUPPLIES To Shee. A twenty-five per cent or more.
