They are absorbent and lint-free. Want to learn more? Read on as your fellow readers share even more house- hold tips and tricks that will help you to save time and money every day. DISH DILEMMA. One thing I have found so important regard- ing my aged dishwasher is to remember that it fills with water on a timer, not according to water level like the clothes washer. If you use the shower, flush a toilet or use the sink while it's filling, it doesn't get the proper amount of water to clean the dishes. That makes a huge difference in the outcome. -- Peg R., e-mail SOAP SAVER. I buy bar soap in multi-packs. I always remove the bars from their packaging and place them in different drawers and cabinets in my bathroom and linen closet. I enjoy the fragrance as the soap dries out, and the bars last so much longer in the show- er, with no goopy mess. -- Kath- leen L., e-mail THRIFTY STICKY. I am too thrifty to waste money on spe- cialty cleaning products unless they really pack a punch. There is one prod- uct I can't live without: Weiman Wax Away. Wax Away is intended to remove candle wax from surfaces where it has dripped, but by chance, I discovered that it is also the best all-purpose remover of residue left by price labels, tape or hair spray. I simply apply a little Wax Away to a cotton ball and wipe the stickiness away. The best part is that a little dab goes a long way. I've purchased only two small bottles in the past 10 years. -- Ginger, Tennessee PLUMBING MAGIC. I got this hint from a plumber who knows his stuff: Fill your sink with hot water. Then pull the plug and pour dish soap down the drain as the sink empties. Doing that once a week will keep your drain running fast and your pipes clean. The dish soap required costs far less than a bill from a plumber. -- Sharon S., e-mail TOP SWITCH. I save caps from various sizes and shapes of plastic bottles and use them to replace the tops of other bottles that don't suit my purpos- es. I recently replaced a squeeze-style margarine top with a thoroughly washed hand lotion cap because it would allow me to stand the mar- garine bottle on its lid. I routinely replace the caps of shampoo and body wash bottles with lids that have smaller holes. That alone saves at least half the amount of soap dispensed with each squeeze. -- Gayle, e-mail Would you like to send a tip to Mary?

Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate Police reports Rescued horses need flu vaccine COTTONWOOD — Safe Haven Horse Rescue, a non-profit horse rescue in Cottonwood, is asking the public for assistance in vaccinating 60 rescued horses against the equine flu epidemic that has already sick- ened 70 horses and killed 3 in the past month. Safe Haven is getting all of its horses vaccinated against this new strain of equine flu in our area as reported by the local media and would appreciate any assistance from the community. Grandpa Hank is one of Safe Haven's locally res- cued horses that need this vaccine. Many in the com- munity helped Grandpa Hank when he was found starved and abandoned last year in the mountains of Redding, surviving by eating only dirt and pine nee- dles. He weighed only 500 pounds when he arrived at Safe Haven and is now at 1,000 pounds and doing won- derfully thanks to the many generous donations of the community. Please go to www.safehavenhorserescue.net to see pictures and stories of Safe Haven horses and what happens at the rescue on a daily basis. You can also donate to the vaccine drive on the blog. All donations are tax deductible and any size donation is needed and helpful. "The community has been wonderful in supporting Safe Haven and it's so appreciated," said Linda Richards, founder of Safe Haven. "With the down economy and the horrible weather we've had our hands full, and we really need any help you can give to get all our horses vaccinated. Safe Haven survives on the gen- erosity of sponsors and donations." For more information, call Richards at 347-4941. Post Lake Red Bluff planning continues The Sacramento River Discov- ery Center was the site of the third in a series of meetings talking about the future of post Lake Red Bluff. The discussion, led by Zach Whitten, director of the SRDC Summer Camps program, reviewed the progress that has been made since the November meeting and looked to the future of recreation in the area. Members of the audience said they were inter- ested in fishing returning to the river. Ideas were presented that would help aid shad, salmon and steel- head return to the area as the free flowing river returns to a year round status. The potential for the return of fishing tournaments was strongly supported. Improved pub- lic access to areas for steelhead fishing were applauded. The creation of fishing holes where grandparents can teach chil- dren how to fish was widely applauded. Adding additional boat launching facilities on both sides of the river between Bend and Corning was suggested. Ideas and suggestions were added to the growing list of posi- tive things that can occur when the Sacramento River returns to its year round status. Refreshments were provided by Human Bean coffee. The next program meeting is scheduled for Feb. 18, when Deb- bie Carlisi of Red Bluff Parks and Recreation will share some of the ideas from Red Bluff's side of the river on the future of recreation. The center is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is within the Mendo- cino National Forest's Red Bluff Recreation Area, 1000 Sale Lane. The Center is a non-profit environ- mental education membership organization and more information about its programs is available by calling Carlene Cramer, center manager at 527-1196 or e-mailing ccramer@tehama.k12.ca.us.
