PAGE 3-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1972 GEES Ul.ltMJ'IAI'H'MJ' By Anne Ashley Q. How can I make my own paint remover? A. Use two pounds of sal soda and one-half pound of lime in one gallon of hot water to remove old paint. Stir together and apply to the paint while still warm. This solution loosens the paint, and it can then be scraped away. v Q. How can I remove oil or grease stains from brown or tan shoes? A. These usually yield to lemon juice. Q. How can I remove catsup stains from materials? A. Remove as soon as possible, because age makes this a hard stain to deal with. Flush as much of the stain as possible out in a fairly con­ centrated solution of neutral detergent and water. Lubricate the remaining portions of the stain with glycerin, working it in with the blunt edge of a knife. Then flush again with the detergent-water solution. Q. How can I make my own brass polish? A. Put two tablespoons of salt into a cup of vinegar, add just enough flour to make a smooth paste, then dip a damp cloth into this paste and rub until the stains on your brass disappear.* Rinse with cold water, then dry. Q. How can I remedy slightly scorched woolens? A. Wet the blemish, then rub some dry cornstarch over it. Brush off the cornstarch when the article is dry. Q. What is a good general cleansing agent for bathtubs? A. One of the very best is kerosene, a little of this on a damp clo^h,working wonders in removing dirt and soap scum. Afterwards, the tub may be rinsed with soap and water to remove the odor, although this soon disappears by itself. Q. How can I remedy the inside of one of my aluminum vessels which is beginning to turn black? ' . A . S l o w l y s t e w s o m e a c i d food (rhubarb, tomatoes, etc) in the vessel and watch the sparkle return. And the food itself won't be harmed, either. Q. How can I remove ink spatters from wallpaper? A. These should be blotted up immediately, but carefully, with cleansing tissues. After that, apply fuller's earth or French chalk, brushing it off as it soaks up the ink. If the ink is not entirely removed by these methods, ink eradicator may be used, although this is very likely to take the color out of your paper, too. Q. How can I renovate some dented table tennis balls? A. Try pouring boiling water over them. The heat of the water expands the air inside the balls, and usually the dents pop right out. Q. How can I remove rust stains from a sink or bathtub? A. A mixture of one-half cup grapefruit juice and one g uoumy PTO PROGRAM Do you believe your child's behavior is typical for his age?

Sold under a variety of b r a n d n a m e s , M e r i o n Kentucky Bluegrass is avail­ able straight and in mixtures, tablespoon of salt makes a good rust remover. Q. How can I add longer "burning life" to candles? A. Candles will burn con­ siderably longer if given a coat of shellac, which tends to retain the molten wax around the wick, instead of its running down the side of the candle. and the1 best mixtures have at least 40% Merion. Any amount of Merion makes a mixture better The green color of Merion is outstanding for a longer period of every year than any other grass, and because of its deep root system, Merion is very drought resistant. Unless you are so expert as to know which other varieties of seed should be in the mix­ ture to meet the needs of your own lawn's conditions, you'll be wise to choose a well tested mixture with quality ingredients. It's wise to buy from a lo­ cal retailer where the people want your return business and are experts at what they sell for the home garden.
