Try placing door horizontally over wood horses, with ends extending at least a foot be- yond support points. On these ends, place heavy weight (pails of water, large rocks, piles of| thick books, etc.) and allow to) remain for at least a week. Fre- quently, this is effective in straightening warped wood.

How can I make them fit tighter 7I'm afraid they may fall out otherwise, "ANSWER: Putty alone can't be used on glass in garage doors, for the slamming will jar it loose (as it apparently has). Usually, the glass is held by etrips of wood molding which ig held with finishing nails. Bed the panes in putty, then attach the molding to hold them in lace. 'ARI-COLORED FLAMES QUESTION: We collected a 'mass of pine cones to burn in our fireplace. How can these be treated so that the flamse ere in different bright colors? ANSWER: For vari-colored flames when burnmg pine cones; for red, spray with a sat- urated solution of strontium gitrate in alcohol; for blue, copper sulphate; for green, berium nitrate. Before using the cones, be sure they have dried. Chemicals can be obtain- ed at your druggist's, or at a 'chemical supplies house. WEED-B-GON gets rid of weeds, roots and all!
