Homemaker notes from Marion S Harris advise right now as ideal to clean and store the barbecue for winter and then cover it for spring. They discuss cleaning methods with pine oil cleaners or ammonia, and options for enamel spray paint and drying.

It covers electric blankets including thermal weave, water-heated models, guarantees, and care instructions for washing and drying based on fabric.
