A disposable cleaning article for removing particulate matter from various materials especially clothing is disclosed. The cleaning article comprises two similarly shaped and aligned plastic sheets which are affixed to each other along the periphery of the sheets, thereby forming a pocket area between the plastic sheets. The affixed first and second plastic sheets have at least one opening to provide access to the pocket area in order to allow for manual direction of the cleaning article along a surface to be cleaned. One surface of the device is coated with an adhesive suitable for collecting particulate matter such as lint. A cover sheet is detachably secured to the adhesive material to protect the adhesive coated surface prior to use of the cleaning article.

A tow bar assembly for converting a two-wheeled wheelbarrow into a garden or industrial type trailer includes a bar of metal box tubing with horizontal holes at the wheelbarrow end and vertical holes at the tractor end. The wheelbarrow end is slid onto the axle of the wheelbarrow, keeping the bar between the tub of the wheelbarrow and its toe plate. Grommets positioned on the axle on either side of the bar center the tow bar assembly on the axle. A threaded post is inserted into the holes in the tractor end of the bar and locked into place by nuts. In use, the handles of the wheelbarrow are raised and the post inserted into the aperture of the tractor's draw bar from the underside of the aperture. The cantilevered weight of the wheelbarrow will keep the wheelbarrow from becoming disengaged from the garden tractor or towing vehicle. The legs of the wheelbarrow are kept off the ground and the trailer-barrow is now ready for use. Where the wheelbarrow conversion to a trailer is intended for heavy loads, a piece of flat iron is attached to the topside of the rails of the wheelbarrow close to its dumping end. In this way, when in use, the tow bar will rest on the flat iron instead of the wheelbarrow's toe bracket.

摘要:
A container and method for transporting finely divided coal in rail cars or other cargo hauling vehicles, the container having a generally flexible and substantially oxygen impermeable barrier defining an encapsulated cavity. A port, including a coupling adapted to substantially prevent exposing the finely divided coal to oxygen, is positioned in the container for passing a flowable material through the barrier. The container also including a cap for sealing the port, a one-way pressure activated valve positioned in the barrier preventing gases in the cavity, and a harness for supporting the barrier and defining the shape of the cavity. The method generally having the initial steps of removing most of the oxygen from the cavity of the container, and adjusting the shape of the cavity to conform to the type of rail car that is being used to haul the finely divided coal. The method having the additional steps of filling the container with finely divided coal at a centralized collection site; sealing the container to substantially prevent introducing oxygen into the coal; loading the filled container into a rail car; hauling the container to a location where finely divided coal is used; unloading the container at the coal burning facility; and emptying the finely divided coal from the container at a location where the coal is used.
