Treating Closets with Cedar Oil
Apropos of the article in a recent issue of Popular Mechanics Magazine entitled “A Cedar-Lined Oak Chest,” readers who desire the advantages of a cedar-lined box or closet may accomplish it by the use of cedar oil. Painting the interior of a box with this oil will to all intents and purposes convert it into a cedar chest regardless of the kind of wood used. The cost of the oil is not great. A closet treated in the same manner will likewise keep out insects.—Robert E. M. Bain, St. Louis, Mo.
