Get out of the gutter and pay up for guards Q. Some of the gutters on my house are 30 feet off the ground. How do I keep leaves out of them? Steve G. of Auburn. A. Steve, ol’ buddy, on Friday nights it’s easy to find gutters a lot closer to the ground SQUARE than 30 feet. Don’t spend time trying CORNERS to over achieve. If you insist on Fred Kreigh doing home maintenance as instructed by your wife, let’s try to keep you off a 30-

foot ladder. Bottom line, as long as there are trees around your house taller than 30 feet you are going to get leaves in your 30-foot-high gutter. You will either need to start a campaign to top all trees at 29 feet or protect those open gutters. There are lots of different styles of gutter guard you can buy for a do it yourself job or call any seamless gutter contractor and he will sell you the farm. These products range in price from $1 to as much as $13 per foot. As is always the case in life — you get what you pay for. If you spend a dollar on a piece of plastic webbing or $14 on the Cadillac of leaf guards — i.e. if you buy

something cheap or something outrageously expensive — you are cheating yourself. Find a product that will allow the heaviest of rainfall to still enter the gutter without running over and allows dried leaves to blow off and you won’t have to get on that ladder. If you miss climbing up and down, help the family get the Christmas decorations out of the attic.

Where to store those off-season items THE ASSOCIATED PRESS It’s that time of year again, when we pull out the blankets andsweaters and stash thelast of the warm-weather items until spring arrives. Many homes lack the space needed to store everything right where we use it. So seasonal things get shuttled around and sometimes even misplaced. If the serving dishes you use only at the holidays are stacked way up at the top of your pantry, “you may find yourself running out and buying something you’ve already got, because you can’t remember what you have or you can’t get to it,” says Atlantabased interior designer Mallory Mathison. Many of her clients struggle with insufficient closet space for storing items that are only used for a few months each year. Here, Mathison and interior designers Brian Patrick Flynn and Molly Luetkemeyer offer advice on creativelystoring off-season itemsin ways that maximize every inch of space and make it easy to retrieve what you need.

Find double-duty furniture All three designers love furniture that offers hidden storage. A bench with storage space inside is perfect for boots, and bins containing scarves, gloves and hats. Or add a large coffee table/ottoman combination to your living room: “They’re an easy way to sneak a bit more seasonal storage into a room, without having to add extra closet space or add pricey, big-ticket furniture pieces,” says Flynn, founder of the design website decordemon.com. “You can find a ton of storage-ottoman-coffee tables on websites like overstock.com or hayneedle.com.” For families with pets, Flynn suggests creating a sleeping space for a small dog or cat that doubles as seasonal storage. “To do this, I take a flea-market dresser, usually a highboy with four to six drawers, then remove the bottom two for use as an open lounge space for pets, complete with a removable cushion,” he says. Use the remaining drawers above for seasonal items like off-season clothing.

Maximize under-bed spaces Many people use the space under their master bed for seasonal storage. Luetkemeyer suggests doing the same with every bed in the house.

Tuck clear plastic bins under children’s beds (and a guest bed, if you have one), labeling each one clearly. You can rotate items in and out of these bins during the year — one holding swimsuits all winter might hold sweaters in summer. If you know that all under-bed space is designated for seasonal items, it will be easier to track down the once-a-year items you’re seeking.

Try creative carpentry Mathison suggests having built-in cabinets added along the walls on both sides of your bed. Creating this architectural niche for your bed “is totally cozy, and it also creates great concealed and/or open storage,” she says. Another built-in option: If your kitchen cabinets don’t go all the way to the ceiling, add extra closed storage on top for seasonal serving dishes and table linens. Or have a row of very shallow shelves (no more than 3 or 4 inches deep) added to one wall of your kitchen or pantry. You can prop up dishware or serving pieces you rarely use, creatively storing them while adding some beauty to your walls.

Get hooked “Seasonal things that inspire you should be left out as much as possible,” Flynn says. “I use a ton of wall hooks in my spaces, mostly to be able to hang up favorite pieces of clothing which add decorative flair to a room.” In a bedroom, a cluster of favorite flannel shirts can look great on decorative hooks, and the same goes for winter jackets. In summer, hang your favorite T-shirts or swimsuits on those same hooks while the winter items are put away.

Use closets well Maximize closet space by adding shelves up high if there aren’t any, then keep a small step-ladder in the closet for accessing high items, Luetkemeyer says. Add inexpensive, battery-powered lights to dim closets, and increase shelf space by adding a row of canvas hanging shelves. In a guest room closet, if you have one, Mathison suggests using two rows of hanging canvas shelves — one filled with items your guest may need, such as extra towels and soap, and the other left empty so your guest can put out some of the clothes they brought. Then use the rest of the closet

This photo provided by Brian Patrick Flynn and Diynetwork.com shows a seasonal storage space and a sleeping space for pets created out of a piece of furniture by designer Brian Patrick Flynn. Flynn takes a used dresser from a flea market (often a highboy with four or six drawers) then removes the bottom two drawers to create an open lounge space for pets complete with a removable cushion and then uses the drawers for storing seasonal items. for your seasonal things. It will be clear to the guest what space is theirs and what isn’t. If winter items will be hung in a closet, Flynn opts for “thick wooden hangers or sculptural modern aluminum hangers to keep the structural integrity of coats or heavy pants.” For lighter summer items, Luetkemeyer recommends slim, foam-covered hangers that take up less space and won’t let items like camisoles slip off. Consider splurging on rebuilding your closets with exactly the shelving and hanging space you want: “This way, every closet in the house can work for all seasons,” says Flynn. “We spend a ton of money on our cars and have garages built for them, right? Well, we spend just as much on our wardrobes, so why not invest in a space to store that investment?”

Preparing roses for winter All roses need some attention going into winter. Winter weather in our zone 5 can really challenge rose bushes. Low temperatures and drying winds can cause canes to dry out and die. Fluctuating temperatures can cause the freeze-thaw cycle that is especially dangerous to rose KNOWLEDGE bushes. TO GROW Unprotected plants may lose the grafted top leaving only the rootGail Daniels stock which produces an undesirable plant. However, a little T L C should get your roses through the winter nicely. After killing freezes in late fall, plants become dormant and this is the time to put on the winter protection. Pick up and remove debris such as leaves and dead stems on and around plants to prevent diseases from

â&#x20AC;˘

overwintering. If soil is dry, give it a thorough soaking. Plants underneath overhangs of buildings often are very dry, even during wet seasons. You can reduce breakage of tall canes from winter winds by cutting them back to 30 to 60 inches. Secure bush canes by tying twine up and around the plant in spiral fashion. This will make winter covering easier and prevent excessive whipping in the wind. Mound the soil up around the base of the plant about 12 inches high and 12 inches wide to protect the graft union. Take the soil from another part of the garden to prevent injuring the roots. Add mulch such as bark chips, chopped leaves or cornstalk and straw on top for greater insulation. A bushel basket with the bottom removed or a wire cage placed around the plant will hold insulation in place. Styrofoam cones are a popular way to protect roses, but should not be used as a substitute for mounding. Mound 6 to 8 inches deep before applying the cone for best protection. Some cones have a

removable lid that allows heat to escape on warm sunny days. If not, punch or slice holes in the top to prevent heat and moisture build up. Canes will need to be pruned back to fit beneath the cones. Tie canes together and secure the cone in place with rock on top and soil around the base. In early spring, as soon as plants show new growth, remove soil mounds, cones and twine. Be careful so you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t accidentally injure old canes or new growth.

As wallpaper evolves, old patterns retain appeal With today’s interest in vintage interior design concepts, wallpaper featuring old style imagery is making a huge comeback. Wallpaper has developed as a decorative art form which is easily changed as the styles change. Many of us are interested in sprucing up the place ART & around the holidays so installing new or even ANTIQUES old wallpaper can be a fun redecorating Dr. Lori project. Dating as far back as the early days of decorative papyrus paper making in ancient Egypt, wallpaper has evolved over time. The Chinese first glued rice paper to walls around 200 BC. By the 12th century, wallpaper had spread throughout Europe. Some believe that wallpaper’s imitative character — trying to look like something it is not such as a fine textile like chintz, tapestry, or velvet — makes the use of wallpaper a cheap option. Others embrace wallpaper’s easy and transitional quality. Many folks enjoy the fact that wallpaper can bring a desired look or new feel to a room at little expense. Some of the most popular wallpapers have been decorated with repeated images like the wallpaper produced in 1481 for King Louis XI of France featuring angels on a blue background. The engraver JeanMichel Papillon invented wallpaper as we know it using block designs in a continuous pattern in 1675, but it would take another 100 years for the wallpaper printing machine to be introduced. Wallpaper was introduced to Americans by a Philadelphia printer in the late 1730s. By the end of the 1770s, wallpaper print workshops were established in the original 13 colonies.

•

Patriotic wallpapers were popular in the late 1700s as were those with repeated images of fruit and flowers for dining rooms and living room walls. The installation of wallpaper changed significantly and so did design tastes in the late 1880s. The first ready-to-use wallpaper paste would come onto the scene in 1888. Design innovations of the Art Nouveau period produced wallpapers featuring organic forms from nature, scroll work and embellishments sparked by the aesthetic ideas of art innovators Louis Comfort Tiffany and William Morris. By the early decades of the 1900s, the golden age of wallpaper was in full swing and as many as 400 million rolls of the printed decorative papers were sold worldwide. During this era, high class wallpapers typically feature exotic locales, lush green landscape vistas and images of social events like polo matches and hunting scenes. In fact, animals of all kinds were among the most popular features on wallpapers of the early 20th century. Dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish made wallpaper imagery all the rage. In the mid 1900s, wallpaper was popular with young American families setting up housekeeping in new Levittown homes after World War II. Printed and playful images on wallpaper would provide an inexpensive and long wearing interior design solution. New materials of the day, including plastics and resins, changed the wallpaper industry as midcentury modern wallpapers boasted durability and strength. However, in the market today, collectors have been known to feature even small pieces of antique and vintage wallpaper as framed works of art. Full rolls of wallpaper dating back to the 1800s rarely come onto the collectibles market yet there have been some wallpapers sold on the antiques market dating back to the Victorian era and to the

Roaring 20s (that is, the golden age of wallpaper). It is rare for large pieces of antique wallpaper to come to market so large supplies of old wallpaper command high prices for their rarity when sold at auction or online. Recent advances in digital printing techniques have allowed the replication of historic images and the production of decorative papers. Large scale vinyl cutout decals and silhouette images are adhered to walls along with life size fullcolor photographs of football and baseball players. These new images have ushered in a new generation of wallpapers. DR.

Imagine warmth: Dream about adding a greenhouse THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Now is not the time of year for sowing, unless it’s sowing an idea: As the weather turns colder and the landscape becomes washed in grays and browns, imagine a retreat, an oasis of lush greenery and brightly colored flowers suffused in warm, moist air.

Greenhouses run gamut Home or “hobby” greenhouses run the gamut from lavish, Victorian-style conservatories to primitive structures cobbled together from discarded window frames. Each creates its own oasis. Even my coldframe — nothing more than a large wooden box with a clear plastic cover — hints of the tropics each time its cover is opened. For most of us, the greenhouse of our dreams would be a spacious conservatory, cozy for its abundance of lush, tropical greenery, with enough space among the 6-foot-long banana leaves and fragrant citrus blossoms to accommodate a small dining table and chairs. But let’s float back down to reality. That greenhouse is beyond many a gardener’s budget, and it’s hard in these environmentally aware times to justify heating a space enough to keep tropical plants happy in winter. Fuel needs rise dramatically with each degree you ratchet up greenhouse temperature. Then again, newer greenhouse coverings, coupled with innovative methods of storing excess heat generated on sunny days, can go a long way to dampening heat losses. Before letting your imagination run away with you though, consider whether you’d prefer your greenhouse to be freestanding or attached to your home. A freestanding structure offers the most flexibility in design and siting, and is bathed in light from all four sides. Also, there’s no need to integrate it with house design, or for it to look anything

This image taken on June 10, 2011, shows a greenhouse on the property of a home. Home or “hobby” greenhouses run the gamut from

lavish, Victorian-style conservatories to primitive structures cobbled together from discarded window frames.

prettier than just functional. An attached greenhouse requires more attention to style but it does have some advantages. Cozied up against your home, an attached greenhouse loses less heat. It can tap the heat-storing capacity of the home’s wall where it is attached, especially if that wall is masonry, and can even tap into the home’s heating system. On sunny winter days, excess heat generated in the greenhouse can be vented into your home. That moist heat is a lot more comfortable than the dry heat of home heating systems, although some caution is needed against venting

too much moisture into your home. And getting back to that table and chairs that might be squeezed into your greenhouse: How likely are you to trudge across the snow with brunch to your freestanding greenhouse? If you have a wall facing in a direction that gets enough light for the plants you want to grow, the attached greenhouse is the one most likely to provide living space as well as functional space. Deciding on the greenhouse’s size and what plants it will house also can help determine heating needs. No need to get into other details just yet. Let your imagination roam.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Sanitize garden to prevent diseases next spring As cold temperatures set in, most gardeners are nestled in their warm homes thumbing through gardening magazines and dreaming of next year’s garden. If good sanitation is not done this fall, the nasty things that are left in the garden may come back to wreak havoc next planting season. Pull on the thermals and get your garden cleaned. KNOWLEDGE I am talking about plant diseases, like TO GROW potato late blight, which can threaten crops next year. This Karen Weiland disease overwinters in the live tissue of potato tubers. Infested potatoes left in the soil and covered with snow are protected from the freezing temperatures that would

•

normally kill it. Make sure all potatoes are dug up. Diseased material should be disposed of but not placed in the compost pile. Compost piles act as insulators during cold weather and throwing diseased material into it will cause contamination. Early next spring check the area for volunteer potato plants and dispose of them. It is recommended to buy clean, certified seed potatoes, rather than planting potatoes saved for seed. Late blight is spread through the air and from plant to plant under favorable weather conditions. It can affect tomato plants and the same sanitation rules apply — clean it up to prevent problems. Clean up any dropped tomatoes. Not only are they a potential harbor for disease but if left in the garden, all those little tomato seeds will sprout next spring causing you to have to pull them all out. Another thing to keep in mind is the possibility of disease carry-over from garden to garden. Let’s say you lend a

helping hand in Madge’s garden for the afternoon and you use some of your own garden tools. Soil borne diseases can be transferred between gardens if contaminated soil is left on your tools. As a preventative measure clean your tools as you use them. When trimming your woody plants clean your loppers and pruners with isopropyl alcohol after every use to prevent the transfer of pathogens from a sick plant to a healthy one. Preventing a disease before it becomes a problem is easier that trying to get rid of it. As always, happy gardening. More information about gardening and related subjects is available online at hort.purdue.edu/ext/garden_pubs. The Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service can be reached at 499-6334 in LaGrange County, 636-2111 in Noble County, 925-2562 in DeKalb County and 668-1000 in Steuben County.

Store potatoes, onions in cool, dark places More of us are growing our own fruits and vegetables and with that comes “what do we do with all this bounty?” Also, you can buy fruits and vegetables in season and store them much more reasonably than buying out of season. Home storage is a good and inexpensive way to keep many vegetables. When stored properly, fresh vegetables keep much of their value and flavor. KNOWLEDGE First and foremost, store only good TO GROW quality, mature vegetables. In most cases and especially for root Gail Daniels vegetables which can take a light frost, delay harvesting. Handle with care to avoid cuts and bruises. ONIONS: Make sure tops are completely dry, then cut the tops off 1 inch from the bulbs. Cure bulbs for another week or two in a dry well-ventilated location before putting in storage. Onions do best in mesh bags or slatted crates. Store in a cool,

•

moderately dry, well-ventilated room away from bright light and where, ideally, the temperature can be kept near 32 degrees F such as an attic or unheated room When we’re out of the 8 degree temps, put onions in well ventilated containers such as mesh bags or slatted crates. Fill the bags half full and hang them on overhead hooks if possible. Fill the crates half full and stack them on crossbars for good air circulation. Ideal conditions for storage are 32 degrees F with relative humidity of 70-75 percent. Onions should keep at least 2 to 4 months in home storage. POTATOES: Even stored under the best conditions, potatoes lose some quality the longer they are stored. It’s not a good idea to store potatoes in the refrigerator. Cold temperatures convert starch to sugar giving potatoes a sweet taste. The sugar caramelizes during cooking sometimes turning the potatoes brown and an giving them an off flavor. For storage of late potatoes, harvest after potato vines have died. Handle as gently as possible. Potatoes can be harvested at any stage of developments. Because the tubers develop 4 to 6 inches deep, you can use a shovel or spading fork for digging potatoes. Potatoes

January 2013 • Page 61

should be firm, free of soft spots, and free of disease for storage. Cure potatoes in a dark place at 45-60 degrees F for 10-15 days, brush off the soil, then move to your storage area. If storage area temperature is too high, your potatoes may tend to soften and sprout. Store in barrels or crates and store in the dark to prevent greening. Layer sheets of newspaper so if one potato spoils, it will not spread to the entire container. Average storage life is generally 5-8 months. For further information including various types of storage areas, you may want to check out Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service publication 125-W which gives different types of storage suggestions. Just goggle “Publication HO-125-Storing Vegetables and Fruits at Home. Purdue.” The Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service can be reached at 4996334 in LaGrange County, 636-2111 in Noble County, 925-2562 in DeKalb County and 668-1000 in Steuben County.

Now’s the time to get power tools ready for spring THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

You can avoid the silent treatment from your power tools in the spring by providing some tender loving care before storing them in the fall. Gasoline-powered garden gear isn’t guaranteed to start when it’s left idle for extended periods of time, say 30 days or more. A thorough cleaning is essential. “The first thing you want to do is take a blower and clean everything off — the leaves and debris that have built up over the growing season,” said Mike Ballou, a product manager with John Deere. “This is the time for maintenance.” Don’t delay taking equipment to a dealer if you don’t have the time or inclination to do the work yourself, Ballou said. Not only will that extend its working life but it also will save you time and money. “What a lot of dealers do is have service specials in the wintertime to attract customers,” he said. “Otherwise, there’s a two-week backup in the spring because everyone tends to put things off.” Some steps you can take now to ensure your tools are ready when the weather warms up again: • Change the oil and spark plugs in gasoline-powered equipment before storing it away. • Dump leftover fuel into your vehicles. The shelf life for gasoline generally is 30 to 60 days, Ballou said. “Run your equipment until all the old fuel is gone, and then add fresh along with some fuel stabilizer. Let that run five minutes or so, giving it enough time to cycle through the carburetor. That prevents sludge from forming and gumming up the fuel system.” • Disconnect the batteries. “Every two months, put them on a charger and charge them back to full,” Ballou

This Oct, 26, photo shows power tools that are to be winterized for later use in the garden in Langley, Wash. Gasoline-powered equipment that is likely to be stored a month or more needs some looking after if it’s to be ready when the weather warms again. Preventive maintenance also extends its service life.

said. “At that point, you’ve done what you need to ensure they’ll start again in the spring.” Here are some additional tips to ease seasonal garden chores: • Buy an extra set of lawnmower blades and another chain for your chainsaw. “That way you’ll always have one on hand while the dull blades are being balanced and sharpened,” Ballou said. • Clean or replace air filters to aid engine combustion. • Store your equipment and fuel in a clean, dry place, said Randy Scully, national service manager for STIHL Inc., a manufacturer of chainsaws and other handheld equipment. “That helps prevent rust and corrosion.” • Lubricate and tighten moving parts. That includes wheel bearings and throttle cables. Tillers, mowers,

string-cutters and chain saws take terrible beatings and tend to loosen up over time. “Anything that’s not quite right or broken, get it repaired,” Scully said. “Clean away oil that’s dripped onto handles or working surfaces for safety.” • Get to know your product instruction manual, Scully said. “It has complete listings of things in there about what should be checked and how often.” John Deere, STIHL and many other manufacturers have begun emphasizing easier-to-maintain designs for do-it-yourself equipment operators. “For example, no tools are needed for changing the oil in our newer garden tractors,” Ballou said. “We’re trying to make things simple to extend their working life.”
