(ConUniMd from Pago B 16)
ANSWER In answer to Clark Whitleather, who
wonders where to buy bittersweet vine, Anna News
wanger writes that the vines are available from Gur
ney’s Seed and Nursery Co., 110 Capitol Street,
Yankton, .South Dakota 57079. She also has the
answer to where to find a fake pie dough recipe, a
question posed by M. Burkholder of Ephrata: in the
Sept.-Oct. issue of the Country Woman. „
ANSWER—A reader writes to answer Helen Phil
lips of Camden, N. Y. about where to buy a few crates
of heavy chickens or roosters. There's a poultry and
small animal sale at Root's Country Market and Auc
tion every Tuesday night. The address is 705 Gray
stone Road, Manheim, Pa. 17545, phone
717-898-0755 or 336-2560. If they can’t help, they
might be able to suggest some of their New York
dealers.
ANSWER The same reader who knew where to
buy the chickens and roosters knows how to remove
rust from an iron skillet and how to keep it from reap
pearing when not in use, a question posed by Rose
Diehl of Bloomsburg. Use steel wool, not soap at
least 5-10 minutes. Rinse with very hot water and
repeat if necessary. Hang to dry completely. After 20
minutes spray with cooking spray. The reader also
uses a copper pot and pan brush she gets in the groc
ery stores.

ANSWER Scott Sheffer responded to Charles
Mason of West Decatur who wanted to know who
manufactures expansion tanks for hot water heater.
Sheffer says to contact Amtrol, West Warwick,
Rhode Island 02893. He says that his was purchased
at York Corrugating Plumbing Supply in Shrewsbury,
Pa. Their phone number is 717-235-4733.
ANSWER C. Robert Holmes, Sr., writes about
one reader's problem with windows that have excess
moisture. He says that as a contractor and remodeler
he never saw this problem until last year when one of
his customers complained about the problem after he
installed vinyl replacement windows in her home,
which was built in 1956. Holmes has had a represen
tative from the window company and one from the
lumber company where he purchased them. They
have tried various ways to correct the problem by
using a better grade of caulking, then a vented soffit
and recently a vent in the ridge of her roof.
The condensation runs down the windows, and
even her walls are now mildewing in some places.
Apparently this customer has the problem through
out the year only worse in winter. She heats her
house with forced hot air.
Holmes has also contacted a Penn State Exten
sion agent, who is also puzzled.
Holmes has questions for the woman who asks the
question In You Ask, You Answer and requests that
she contact him; C. Robert Holmes, Jr., 291 Mitchell
Road, Airville, Pa. 17302, or by calling him and leav
ing a message if necessary at 717-382-4169.
Another reader responded about the problem of
condensation. Her home, too, had this problem. She
says the likely cause is either the house is too airtight
and/or woodburhing stove is drawing moisture out of
wood stored in the basement. This moisture goes into
the air, and due to airtightness in the house, it has
nowhere to go. She also says the moisture problem in
her house was on the second floor ceilings and first
and second floor windows, where moisture met the
coldest air.
For a solution, she says to vent the house. At her
house they drilled small holes in the frames of
wooden storm windows. They also learned that if
storm windows were not put on the second floor win
dows, the moisture is able to vent there too.
She adds that airtight homes and woodburning
stoves don’t work well together. The stove needs air
circulation to burn efficiently. However, with some
adaptions, you can solve the moisture problem. Ven
ting the moisture may cause you to have to burn more
wood.
