HOMEMADE DOG BISCUIT

The wholesome treats that Barbara Saliek-Shaffer makes are certainly good eating, but Bowser Biscuits are created especially for canine consumption. The bone-shaped morsels are made right in Barbara's home from chicken, whole wheat flour, soy flour, cornmeal, safflower oil, and nutritional yeast . . . with no artificial coloring or flavoring, preservatives, salt, or sugar. Your dog will gobble these healthful biscuits down without a thought about how nutritious they are. A two-pound box is $4.00, and a five-pound one goes for $10 (add $2.00 for shipping and handling). Order from Shannon Enterprise, Dept. ME, 1911 Hillside Dr., Delafield, Wis. 53018.

INFLATABLE WATER HEATERS:

Now, you can heat water in black, flexible sacks called Sun Bags. Made of heavy-duty material, they're designed for active or passive hot-water storage and hold from 10 to 500 gallons. A small bag can be carried on camping trips (lay it in the sun, and have a hot-water washup in the evening), while larger ones can heat water for pools or for domestic use. Write the Solar Sense Division of Inflatable Technology Corp., Dept ME, P.O. Box 9307, Providence, R.I. 02940 for prices and information.

WHAT IS THIS FRAGRANCE?

It's easy to cover up troublesome odors with a spritz from a bottle of Skunk Stuff. Eliminate smells of urine, manure, raw fish, diaper pails, and a host of other unpleasant aromas. This mint-tinged spray was designed to get rid of skunk odor, so you know it can handle offensive household smells. Four and a half ounces of this fragrant cover-up cost $5.95 plus $1.00 for shipping and handling from Miracle Produces Company, Dept. ME, P.O. Box 144, Iron Mountain, Mich. 49801.

PUMP NOW, FEED LATER:

Breast-feeding mothers are discovering the benefits of pumps that allow them to store breast milk for baby's use when Mom isn't around. This particular pump by Nelkin/Piper International (Dept. MEN113BP, 811 Wyandotte, P.O. Box 807, Kansas City, Mo. 64141) is conveniently angled for easier, more comfortable filling and less spillage. Furthermore, the pump converts into a feeding bottle that can be sterilized repeatedly. For $24.95 plus $2.00 for shipping and handling, the kit includes pump, two different-sized breast shields, storing cap, nipple, extra suction ring, cleaning brush, and instructions.
