Attractive new flooring, ceiling tiles and • "in- door" furniture combine to make . the porch an extra root* enjoyable year-round. •1}: ,J. hh {.}'.LL•-J.�J{.

NowPorch Can Be Extra Living Room Is your home so spacious that you can afford to close off one room for the winter? Few homeowners could an- swer this question, "Yes. " But that's what happens with a' screened -in porch. In warm weather, a screened - in porch is a pleasure --a fine place to relax, to entertain. The children use it as an out- door playroom. When cold winds start to blow,. the porch goes off limits. That convenient extra room is winter -bound and useless until spring. Turning a •screened -in porch biitoa glass -enclosed room isn't difficult. The roof, support posts and floor are already there. What's required are the right Windows,. insulation and -heating. 'Stock awning or hopper win- dews serve well for an enclosed porch. • They open at a 45-dea gree angle (awning out,hop- pers in) for free air flow, have a large, glass expanse for good visibility,. and open and close eilsflY• • :They...can le banked .moi p„, series across the wall, or used in combination with fixed -glass Windows to give the wide-open effect of glass walls. Porch windows should have insulating glass for maximum comfort . Double panes of in- sulating glass, combined with the natural insulation of wood sash and effective weatherstrip- ping, cut heat loss in winter and help prevent heat gain in summer. Insulating glass --now avail- able in all window styles --also prevents condensation and elim- inates the need for stoim sash. Even though an enclosed porch is weathertight and gets lots of sunlight. it does need some - form of heating. If feasible, • simply extend the present in- door heating system. Or, use electric -baseboard heating, gas or electric space heaters, or onerof the heat pumps that heat in winter and -cool in summer. It's also wise to install insul- ating batts in the roof and wads If the porch floor is wood, it may need just a resanding or paint job. • Concrete floors can be tiled over with an easy -care , resilient flooring. . The glass -enclosed porch. will provide extra -living space • all year 'round and may even become the most popular room in the'house. Quality garden toils economical Don't look for bargins in gardening equipment. Horti- culturalists tell us you g e t only what you pay for, as a poor tool or an improper one is sometimes worth less than noth- ing. Check the wood in the han- dles to make sure it is a high quality hardwood that isn't likely to split or splinter under stress. Select a water-resistant finish so that equipment will be protected if inadvertently left in the rain. Be s e t h e handle and metal portion are firmly fastened together. In some small tools the handle is merely squeezed into a metal tube and aging of the wood will cause it to loosen. - Any metal parts should be of good duality. Hoes and spades must be able.to hold an • edge and be fairly chip - resistant, Be sure the teeth in rakes are strong enough to resist bending while having enough spring to avoid damaging the lawn, Buy tools only as the need for them arises. The man who buys a complete set of garden tools befere he starts to garden is often wasting his money. TAKING, TIME EDGE OFF GARDENING CHORES IS the aim of a • wide variety of products now available to assist the green - thumb set. Here, the work -saver is steel lawn edging, being in- stalled around a flower bed to prevent garden washouts and unwanted spread of grass. "It's Car.Mac Color -Clad, from Carey -McFall.

This home- maker chose to fit her portable dryer with casters -.arid' stogy it in the closetwhen it's not in use. It can be bung on a wall or set on a counter just as eabfily. ter long service as a retreat from, the workaday woiid, are ^ . its four walls starting to close in? It's only human nature to want to replace drab, outmoded interior space with a fresh, new environment which seems more roomy and cheerful. One way of remodeling an indoor area to give it added sparkle and a feeling of greater spaciousness -is to. bring the out- doors indoors --to open the liv- ing room, kitchen of other area to the light and color of nature. PAYS EXTRA DIVIDENDS In 'other words, knock out the exterior walls, or at least part of them, and replace them with floor -to -ceiling expanses of glass. The remodeling -with - glass technique not only can . make the interior seem larger and more visually .pleasing; but also can pay extra dividends by giving the exterior a more modern and appealing appear - ance. ' The key is to make a glass remodeling project fit the pock- etbook. ° Pick out the most at- tractive view-, and -bring it into the home with glass. Renovate with ,glass first in rooms which are used most of= ten and then, w1i'en economics permit, branch out Into other portions of the home. Sliding glass doors are a par- ticularly popular means of unit- ing the home's natural and man- made space because they serve both as a door and'a window. They provide both visual and physical access to a patio, court- yard or lawn, turning it i n to another "room" in the home and making it enjoyable year-round. SOFTENS BRIGHTNESS • Using insulating glass in these sliding doors is a practical means. of making such a remodeled home work with the weather. Insulating glass is made of two panels of glass, separated by a sealed -in -air space for an add- ed margin of protection against inclement weather and for low-. ering of heating and air-condi- tioning costs. INSTALLING CARPET Installation of wall-to-wall carpeting enters the do- iv- your- self class with a new product by Ozite. The "tiles" are 12 -inch squares of polypropylene carpet with a latex foam rubber back- ing. They can be cemented to the floor with a rubber -based ad- heaive. How To Plan Your Fencing Si 1 i�.
