HOME By April Rhodes It's time to repot plants to bring indoors for winter. Water thoroughly the day be­ fore repotting to loosen the root ball. One cup of dried beans or peas (an excellent pro­ tein substitute) will make two and one-half cups cooked. When you need an extra large hot dish mat, solve your problem by covering a magazine with kitchen foil. Let your small children enjoy eating soup by putting the vegetables and meat in a bowl and the liquid in a cup to drink. As leaves begin to fall, rake them around the base of shrubs and trees to form a protection blanket as the weather gets colder. Fall is a good time to plant evergreens. They'll have time to establish a good root system before next summer. • • • • If advice is all you want, you can get it without ex­ pense.
