<STRONG>That is true. . . you CAN add rocks (or bricks) to the tank. Did that myself back in the 70's when I was living in an area that had water rationing. Or, you can go visit the nice young lady at the water Department in Moscow and she will give you a nifty blue vinyl bag to fill with water that will displace that amount in your tank. It all works. But sometimes old toilets really need to be replaced. . . they are only fit to plant petunias in.</STRONG><BR>

<DIV>You know, you can create a half flush toilet simple by placing rocks in your toilet tank equal to 1/2 the volume of the tank. </DIV>

<DIV>Ellen, what did your daughter do with the old toilet? </DIV>

<STRONG>The Natural Abode down on Main Street sells half-flush toilets. I was so impressed with them I bought one for my daughter for her Christmas present last year. Made sense to me. . . . she's on a septic system where she lives and she's conserving a valuable natural resource with every half-flush. The Natural Abode is a great shop with very helpful staff to answer all your questions. Check it out if you haven't already.</STRONG><BR><STRONG></STRONG> <BR><STRONG>Ellen A. Roskovich</STRONG><BR><STRONG></STRONG> <BR><STRONG>P.S. I also have to put a plug in for the City of Moscow's Water Dept. . . they have some great free gadgets for the homeowner who wants to save water. The young lady who works there was so nice putting together a bunch of stuff for me. . . .for my bathroom, kitchen and garden. Check them out, too.</STRONG><BR><BR><BR><BR>
