Like using a paper coffee filter to wash a glass top or mirror when I'm in a pinch for paper towels. Or using a paper towel to cre- ate a coffee filter when I discover at the worst mo- ment we're out of filters. You're going to feel like a genius, too, once you read today's tips from ingenious readers about ways that they save time and money every day. "OPEN FIRST" BOX. As a military family, when- ever the movers arrived to move us to the next as- signment, I always had one box I marked "Open First." In it were bed sheets, tow- els, soap, coffee maker and toaster. No matter how late we arrived at our new home, we didn't have to spend another night in a hotel. We could make our beds, get cleaned up and start the next day with coffee and toast, without having to open multiple boxes looking for stuff. — Cindy, Ontario, Canada SAFE LOCK SPRAY. So as not to damage your locks for the long term, use only a graphite-based spray to keep your locks from stick- ing in all weather condi- tions. We use Lock-Ease brand after finding that many other brands can cause damage at greater cost. — Kathie, South Car- olina DOGGIE BAGS. My hus- band and I love to host din- ner parties for our family and friends. I like to send leftovers home with our guests in repurposed gift bags (from birthday par- ties, etc). The bags add a bit of charm and are much more tidy and pleasant- looking than a plastic gro- cery bag. — Maggie, Ohio SHOUT IT OFF. Even after trying oven cleaner, stove door cleaner and other products, we could not get rid of the crud on the glass front of our wood stove. Finally, we found the solution! We place newspapers on the floor under the open doors and spray full- strength Shout Triple Act- ing laundry stain remover on the glass. Let soak for 5 to 10 minutes. Using a single-edge razor blade, scrape the black off the glass. Spray again lightly and wipe with a paper towel. Works like a charm. — Lyle, email BREAKFAST RICE. Leftover cooked rice serves as a wonderful hot cereal. Steam the rice with a little bit of water, and then serve with milk, chopped nuts and raisins or some other dried fruit. My children love it and frequently ask for breakfast rice. — Gigi, California VACUUM CORD SAVES TIME. I save a lot of time vacuuming my large home since purchas- ing a 50-foot extension cord that I keep coiled up in an attractive wicker bas- ket. Now I can vacuum al- most the entire house with- out retracing my steps or taking time to unplug and replug my vacuum cleaner. — Linda, Michigan Wouldyouliketosendatipto Mary?

EVERYDAY CHEAPSKATE Ingeniouswaystobeatfrustration,savemoney Mary Hunt BUTTE COUNTY BILL HUSA — ENTERPRISE-RECORD Pete Cuming of Stirling City talks about the Diamond Match mill model he built, which will go on display starting this weekend at the Diamond Match Sawmill Room of the Stilrling City Historical Society. By Mary Nugent mnugent@chicoer.com @ER_MaryNugent on Twitter STIRLING CITY Pete Cum- ing spent six years building a replica of the long-gone Dia- mond Match Sawmill in Stir- ling City. When it comes to accu- racy, it is true, he says. "It's within a human hair as far as scale goes." It will be displayed for the public at the Stirling City Museum beginning Memo- rial Day weekend. Since history is one of Cuming's interests, it was al- most natural for him to take on the project. He is knowl- edgable about the sawmill, which closed nearly 60 years ago, and about the Stirling City area. In fact, Stirling City itself was founded when the mill was developed. In 1903 the Diamond Match Co. of Bar- berton, Ohio, started it as a center for processing cut lumber from the surround- ing forests. Stirling City's name came from the boiler used at Diamond's Barber- ton plant, made by Stirling Boiler Co. Cuming spent hours re- searching the mill's history. "The plant ran from 1903 to 1958," he said. "It was where they turned logs into boards that were sent to Chico," he said. Shortly after it closed in 1958, the mill in Stirling City burned. Cuming owns a sand, gravel and trucking com- pany, and is fire chief of Stir- ling City's Volunteer Fire De- partment. He and his wife live in the original Diamond Match su- perintendent's home in the heart of Stirling City.
