The idea being that he need not fear a dead tree blowing over, shinglea flying off the roof or she'd doors banging. Of course, this is fine in theory but sometimes the farmer simply doesn’t have time to do everything he knows he should - do. So on a recent night with a cold wind howling,-Allen got up at 3 a.m. to put a cement block in front of the storm door at the milkhouse as the latch was broken. Everything was fine until 10 a.m. that same morning when the wind managed to catch the door and break the glass again. I hope I’ve finally become wiser and tired of my many trips to the hardware store. I’ve ordered plexiglass in the hope that this will answer our problems. P. L ROHRER & BRO., INC. Smoketown, Pa. Ida Risser On that same cold and wir..y night, I should have been up and moving houseplants off the win dowsills. But, I didn’t think clearly at 3 a.m. and even though I put them on the floor the next morning most of the impatiense, or namental vines and my caladuim froze. Those on the west and north windows were hardest fait and my consoling thought is that Fd sooner lose them in February than in November nothing lasts forever. For 24 years we managed without a toaster in our kitchen. When all the children were home, they would lay half a dozen pie£es of bread under the broiler in the oven and brown them. Now that we have an automatic toaster, it is the most used small appliance. I have -an ample supply* of homemade jams and jellies for after school snacks. 717-299-2571
