New plastic chains lie flat on the tire on bare roads, turn sideways on snow for traction. Can be used at highway speeds, too. r A dirty air filter can cause loss of engine pep, flooding, and then starting problems. Dry - paper -element type of filter should be cleaned after 5,000 miles and replaced after 10,- 000. Petroleum -base solvents or lubricants can damage tire rubber. Be careful where you store your tires. A soft, spongy brake usually indicates airin the hydraulic system. Unless the fluid is con- taminated, a good mechanic can draw off air through bleeding valves at wheel cylinders. You'll be pleased with the safe, sure brake systems on the fine cars at Larry Sniders.

One solution for the owner with thirsty plants is self watering planters. There are now available at many plant and garden centers in a wide range of sizes, shapes and colors to enhance any home. "Self watering containers conte with a detailed set of directions to nraI<e house plant care easier, " says Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food horticulturist, J.H. Hughes, The majority are mark from rigid plastic and are cons- tructed so that plants can be potted straight into them. Watering is done through capil- lary systems that draw water up from the reservoirs below. Low r cost at t This is 1 Ontario today has more houses and more new housing programs than ever before. We are, unquestionably, among the best housed people in the world. put the cost of housing, for both owners and renters, has increased sharply in recent years. With this in mind the Ontario Government has developed many programs to ease cost pressures and help make more housing available. Four such programs are: 1. Ontario Home Renewal Program (OHRP) offers grants and loans for home improve- ment through local municipalities to low and moderate income homeowners. It is particularly directed to the rehabilitation of sub -standard dwellings, with emphasis on faulty structural and sanitary conditions, is r� Is 1� and the up -grading of plumbing, heating and electrical systems. 2. Community -Sponsored Housing Program supports the development of reasonably priced housing through non-profit housing corporations operated by groups or munic- ipalities. Grants to these groups—which may include labour unions, churches, wel- fare agencies, educational and charitable institutions, and service clubs — cover up to 10% of the value of a housing project. In return, the group makes available up to 25% of the project units for Ontario Housing Corporation's rent supplement program. 3. OHC'S Assisted Rental Housing for Fam- ilies and Senior Citizens provides accom- modation for the elderly and for families, on the basis of rents -geared -to -income. Its purpose is to subsidize rental payments for people 60 years of age and older and for low-income families. 4. Home Ownership Made Easy (H.O.M.E.) Plan brings home ownership within the reach of many moderate -income earners. Houses are built on serviced lots which are then leased by Ontario Housing Corporation to new homeowners who have the option of buying the land after five years. This com- bination makes lower -than -normal down payments possible.
