A—No, if the fireplace is not in the line of traffic between doors. If it is in such a line of traffic, it is in the wrong place anyway. A raised hearth in many rooms is an attrac- tive and useful feature. Q—Would it be advisable to have | weatherstrips installed in the mid- dle of winter? A—Yes. Of course, you will be in- convenienced for a day or two while {the work is going on. But the added comfort you will get from such pro- tection for the balance of the winter will more than make up for the momentary discomfort. Q—I want to paint my shingle roof, but I am advised that I should not do it.. What do you advise? A—It would be better to use a good shingle stain for roof shingles. you contemplate covering the shingles on the sides of your house, paint is an excellent medium. Q.—The water dripping off the edge of the roof washes all the dirt away from the beds around the house. What can I do about it? A—The most logical thing to do would be to put gutters, or eve troughs, at the edge of the roof and carry off the water through downspouts. If you prefer, you can put a bed of clean gravel pr broken stone about 12 or 16 inches wide and about the same depth along the base of the house on the line. of the drip. A tile line should Tun off from this bed to some’ low point to carry the water away from the foundation. Q—Can you suggest a way to make a closet rat-proof? A.—Line the closet with heavy half-inch galvanized metal mesh. If the closet is just being built, this can Will be glad to explain to you how the concealed type of radiator may be set in the wall of the bathroom where it will be entirely out of the way. If you do not wish to have the radiator set in the wall, you have the option of choosing one of the small free-stand- ing radiators which come in a variety of sizes. Still another alternative is to use @ very thin walltype radiator. Q—Would it be advisable for me to insulate the roof of my house and what type should I use? A—In the ordinary house, about one-fifth of the heat lost in winter will be through the roof, while dur- ing the summer outside heat will enter the upper part of the house. Adequate insulation will overcome both of these difficulties. The kind of insulation to be used as well as the method of application will depend on the design of the house and the roof. When an attic is open and usable 1f| 95 storage space but need not have @ finished surface, insulation can be Placed between the rafters or sup- ported by a @ wire network, depending on the type used. For a finished room, plaster board or wall board may be nailed to the under edges of the rafters and loose insulation poured or packed into this space, or insulated wall board used. If the attic is not used, insulating material can be laid between the floor beams. There are many different types on the market, and you will readily be able to determine the best for your particular condition. Concerning the cost, you may take competitive bids | and make final choices from the lowest dependable bidder. Q.—The location of my hot-water | tank seems to cause the water to cool in a very short time. Can I remedy j this?

Seed Disinfectant Urged by Experts Disinfecting of seed to increase its ability to withstand decay and blight is being recommended strongly this season by the North Dakota Agricul+ tural college. “Treating the seed for protection against these troubles will not insure & 100 per cent stand,” says W. E. Brentzel, plant disease authority of the college experiment station, “but it undoubtedly will improve the stand.” Formaldehyde as a disinfectant for the seed did not show up favorably in trials carried on at the college. It lowered the number of plants to emerge and reduced the apparent vigor in all the tests. “With the already severe ot shriveling and low-vitality held over our seed, this is no time to in- duce further trouble by using an in- jurious treatment,” Brentzel declared, Ceresan, a commercial seed treat- ing compound, tried by the college not only increased the number of plants to push through to the sur- face of the soll, but it also added vigor, enabling the plants to emerge quicker and develop faster in the early stage. This was particularly noticeable when the lightest and most ER, DRESS HAS LOST ALL ITS NICE MY, HOW BRIGHT THIS NEW DRESS WASHED, Turns hard water into lively, creamy suds Wr BOTHER with soaps that give flat, weak suds in hard water?

Entomologists have noted that the large, clumsy fellows, which were un- able to get far in a single flight, have been supplanted by small, strong- flying migratory hoppers. Fred D. Butcher, extension ento- mologist of the North Dakota Agri- cultural college, says that this migra- tory, inch-long, reddish-brown hop- per, with a black patch on its collar, is the most numerous of all spécies throughout North Dakota. They are Present in larger numbers in the northern and western counties than in other parts of the state.

AAA CHECKS WARE LARGE PORTION OF 1995 FARM INCOME Total for Year Put at $16,854,- 837.05; Three-Year Figure is 65 Million Quite a sizable slice of the income received by North Dakota farmers in 1935 came in the form of rental and benefit payments from the Agricul- tural Adjustment Administration. This is evidenced in information re- ceived by the agricultural college ex- tension service. The total amount recived was $16.854,887.05. - Of this total payment, $18.751,371.77 went to wheat producers of the state. Approximately 64 per cent of the en- tire state wheat acreage was under the adjustment contract. To corn and hog producers in 1935 went §2,- 763,230.56 as rental on corn land t: en out of corn production and as an adjustment on hogs. Sugar beet growers of the Red River Valley and McKenzie county received $340,234.72. Between $7,000,000 and $8,000,000 remains to be paid on existing con- tracts. Payment of this final install- ment is provided in a bill now pend- ing before congress. During the three years the agricul- tural adjustment programs were in operation North Dakota farmers have received in the neighborhood of 65 million dollars,"an amount which in- cludes the 13 million dollars paid for cattle during the 1934 drouth.

The leaflet is available to anyone interested in conducting such germination tests, The three plans described are the soil method in which the seed is act- ually planted in soil, the plate method whereby the small grain seed is gér- minated on cloth, and the familiar Tag-doll method for testing corn. These tests are explained by O. A. Stevens, college botanist and Edith C. Higgins of the State Seed Depart- ment. It is pointed out that a germina- tion test simply shows the percentage of seed that can grow under favorable conditions. While important, a ger- mination test is not the only basis for judging seed value. This year there is a distinct difference in the size and vigor of the sprout and young seed- lings from light, shriveled seed as com- pared with those growing from heav- jer, plumper seed. This extreme difference should be considered carefully, as seedling plants from light, shriveled seed will be less likely to recover from severe freezing temperatures, especially under drouth conditions.
