Leaving from Lyons Tuesday to at- them. Summer is almost here, and with all its easy outdoor living which homeowners look forward to, it also brings some discom forts. High on this list of discom forts is the damp, clammy cellar, that encourages rust, mildew and rot. Another is the dust from (driveways and unpaved streets, ¡that makes housecleaning con stant and breathing distasteful. This is the story of a homeowner who decided to do something about these two summer bugaboos, and tame up with an amazingly sim ple solution for both. A thirty-year veteran with Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company’s Chemical Division, Frank Troha experimented with some of their calcium chloride to keep his base ment dry. This chemical draws moisture from the air. He rigged up two or three containers for the chemical using burlap sacking supported by a broomstick rack, similar to the one shown in the • ketch. He then placed them around his basement and waited. In a matter of hours the cellar twa» noticeably drier. He had the High School in said school dis trict, for the purpose of submitting to the legal voters of said district the question of increasing the tax levy for the fiscal year 1950-1951 over the amount limited by section 11, article XI, of the Constitution of Oregon. The reasons for Increasing such levy are: Grounds $500 00; Alteration of Buildings $100 00; found an easy, economical way to keep his cellar moisture-free all summer. In doing so he made the cellar a more pleasant place to work, and saved the loss of rusting tools, mildewing cloth materials and rotting window and door frames. As calcium chloride draws moisture out of the air it liquifies. To catch this liquid Troha placed containers under each bag. In ex perimenting with the liquid he discovered by putting it on his gravel driveway with a sprinkling can, it held down all the driveway dust, even on the hottest, driest day. For larger driveways, roads or playgrounds it may be applied as shown below. In addition to the dust binding qualities of the liquid, Troha fur ther found that if properly ap plied it would kill weeds. And if that isn't enough to qualify cal cium chloride as a cure-all for the homeowner, this same solution spread on walks and driveways in the winter will prevent ice frsm formine New Furniture and Equipment $3,800.00 The amount of tax, in excess of the 6% limitation, proposed to be levied for said fiscal year is $4,400 00.
