CHOOSING PROPER WOOD QUESTION: We have just in- herited an old house, in fairly condition, with a lot of land around it. This has always been used by the family for vacations. We want to improve and repair it so, we can use it for all-year 'round living, and do most of the work ourselves. CLOSE LOUVERS IN ATTIC? QUESTION: Our newly built home has louvers at both ends of the attic area. But the attic floor has no insulation on it. Should we keep the louvers closed during the winter? ANSWER: Louvers should be kept open all year 'round, to provide the ventilation and air circulation needed to prevent condensation, which can cause serious trouble. I highly recom- mend insulating the attic floor, to save fuel, and keep heat in the rooms below.

Using borax: Borax may be used instead of sand. The type of box and procedure are the same. The main difference ts the timing. With sand an eure period of time will not harm The flowers, but with borax, too much exposure will result in their deterioration. Borax has one advantage over sand which is the rapidity of the operation, Whereas the sand procedure requires several days to two or three weeks, the flow- ers in the borax will be ready in 24 to 36 hours. Cleaning the flowers, however, is more diffi- cult, because they must be gone over with a damp soft brush to remove the white powder.
