Titled "The Field and Forest Handy Book," this volume has been justifiably in print since 1906. Written by Daniel C. "Uncle Dan" Beard, the founder of the Sons of Daniel Boone and one of the founders of the BSA, it's a compendium of eternally relevant woodland lore, from building cabins, sleds, boats, and bridges to camping in swamps. The only part we skipped was on how to cook a muskrat. (We know a place that delivers.) Loaded with illustrations. In soft cover from David Godine's Nonpareil Books, 428 pages.

Or sort-of-locking. Push the plunger down and they lock in place, but push the 1/8" nipple down on a hard surface and they'll unlock for re-use. Handy in the shop or craft room for oil, grease, paints, and glues. (Also quite useful for getting liquid medication into the dog.) They measure 3-1/2" long x 9/16" dia and hold 5ml, are graduated in .2ml increments, and have threaded tops. Note the throwaway price.

Black is the new black, and this is the solid black plastic HDPE dispenser bottle (think hand-lotion style) that the cognoscenti will be putting their dishwashing detergent and other nonfood liquids in, so they don't violate the aesthetic of the loft. Holds approx 12 oz and measures 7-5/8" tall x 3-1/16" x 1-5/8" oval, with a flip-up spout. Has a slight countersink nearly the full length of both the front and back if you want to add a tasteful label. Very sleek.

These perfect little clear-plastic canisters have snug pull-off tops. They fit into die-cut circles in a black or white foam pad for display or shipping, with the cut-out foam placed inside the canisters. The foam makes them ideal for safe storage and artful display of individual coins, seeds, insects, stones (precious, semi-precious, or gall-), baby teeth, locks of hair, or any number of tiny treasures. Or toss the foam and store small amounts of anything that doesn't need a screw top. You pick (50) small canisters at 1-1/4" dia x 11/16" deep, or (12) larger canisters at 1-3/4” dia x 5/8" deep.

If they saw this color map eight times a day, they'd know where every place is-and its capital. Snap this tough, 8.5" x 11" laminated sheet into a school notebook and eventually they'll have to read it. It's a very nice world map with capital cities on one side, a U.S. map with state capitals on the other. It includes other major cities plus partial Canadian and Mexican bonus areas. Current, barring a coup since we got our latest shipment.
