'V - *;y<;y if*. < fifeT** THE MoHXNRY PUL1NDEALML -*WrN^ V'August 3, 19111€ FIRST-AID to thm AILING HOUSE ^ By ROGER i. WHITMAN ^ Roger B. Whitman--WNU Feature*. MUSTY SMELL Hll15 CHURCH SERVICE i; '.--vi. • Question: We live in a very old garage flat over a clean private garage. The woodwork, however, is very old, and the windows high and not suited to cross ventilation. There is a musty smell in the house that is present in some old houses, although the place is not damp. We have a gas furnace and there is nothing to cause this odor except aged woodwork. Can you suggest some deodorant to overcome this condition? We have more trouble in summer 'than in winter. - Answer: Where there is a musty aipell of that kind you may suspect rotting wood somewhere. It would be well to make a thorough examination to see if any of the timbers or parts of a building are damp, or if there is leakage. In the meantime you can clear up much of the odor with special preparations that are or the market for just this pur- Spose. Inquire at you*- hardware or i drug store. One or two saucers of i household ammonia would also ,eweeten the air. You can help the ^ventilation along by placing an elecftric fan on the floor, blowing toward Ian open door or window.

What causes it and what can 'we do to remedy it? Answer: The piping connections may be faulty so that when a large IjPClume of water comes down the I pipe from the bathroom above it • creates a suction, causing the water • in the sink trap to gurgle, and, in •some cases draws it down. Some- ! times an accumulation of grease will icause this trouble. If youlr plumber 'can furnish you with an anti-siphon • trap under the sink this should relieve the gurgling. If none is available, a large trap with a deep water aeal may help. All septic tank installations should have a grease trap connected to the line from the sink. | ' ' * • !

Keep the burner clear of dirt and sediment that may hamper its operating efficiency. If flue piping becomes rusted it should be replaced. & ' 2. Storage heaters shoul^ be flushed once a inonth. Flushing is done by opening the drain •live at t£e base of the heater and allowing a few quarts of water to run off. Qose valve when water runs dear. not carry water at temperatures higher than 150° F., as this may cause leakage around your hot water faucets.
