WE’RE sure you’ve noticed that
the most delicious food served
on chipped china reposing on a
slightly grubby tablecloth arrests
your appetite as nothing else will!
You’re too fastidious a woman to
make these mistakes —but your en
tire dining room should match the
sparkle of your china, your linens,
your glassware.
For this reason your window
shades should not Jar on your eye
sight or that of your guests! Shades
should be clean and fresh as a
spring daisy! The simplest way to
achieve this is to hang good cloth
shades at your windows. You can
order them in tones to match your
spring draperies, and blend in with
your curtains.
Whatever color you choose, see
to it that you get first quality cloth
shades. Then you won’t have to
worry about April showers—for
these shades won’t crinkle. You
can forget about dust —for good
shades help to keep out dneL
You can be assured that they’re
hung on seasoned wood rollers. And
if all this isn’t enough, you can stir
worrying about “pin holes.” ’CI
shades keep their fiaa. appears

Cold Weather Hints
For Motorists
By C. R. Strouse
Director, School of Automobiles,

Schools
WTEVER run an engine in which
alcohol is used as the anti-freeze
agent, after steam starts to issue
from the overflow pipe. The steam
will cause the radiator solution to
run out of the overflow pipe until the
radiator is empty. Scored cylinders,
burnt pistons, etc., are likely to be
I the result.
When an automatic shutter, or
winter front, fails to open at any
temperature, the thermostatic unit
is probably defective and should be
replaced. When the shutters open,
but will not close, the trouble is
probably due to a broken closing
i spring.
Check the generator charging
rate. Because of the heavy demand
on the storage battery during eold
weather, it is often advisable to in
crease thu generator output during
the wader months.

Flower Pests and Disease’s
AN effective way to defeat certain
flower diseases is, of course, to
plant disease-resistant strains such
as rust-resistant snapdragon and
wilt-resistant aster.
But the only way to combat insect
pests is to spray or dust plants with
insecticides, a
An early season pest is leaf beetle,
a chewing insect whose presence is
indicated by holes in the leaves. It
is found most often on alyssum, zin
nia, marigold and annua! phlox.
Leaf beetles can be successfully con
trolled by using stomach poisons in
the form of sprays containing arsen
icals or pyrethrum. a-
Snapdragon, aster, petunia ami
verbena are the principal ■victims
of the cutworm, a chewing insect
which cuts plants oft at th* ground.
To combat it, place about a spoon
ful ot poison bran bait around the
base ot each plant
Aphis, sucking insects, bother al
most all the popular flowers with
the exception ot zinnia. They pro
mote wilting and cause crumpling
and discoloration of leaves. A con
tact poison (pyrethrum or nicoti;»e>
sulphate base) should be sprayed er
dusted on the plants.
Downy mildew is a disease found
almost anywhere flowers are grown.
It shows up white all over the plant
and discolors to black, killing leaves
and causing stems to rot Zinnia is
its particular prey, although pe
tunia, phlox and others also are
affected. *As a remedy, flowers of
sulphur may be dusted on very
lightly, and the treatment repeated.
Take a big step toward elimina
tion of all pests generally by burn
ing garden waste and trash, espe
cially any diseased stalks or leaves,
aX t the close of the season. ®
