   If the house has a enough room, dig a trench a few feet back from down hill wall and lay in a telephone pole or steel member (dead men). Attach several chains with large turnbuckles up to the wall at an angle. Fill in the ditch. tighten the turnbuckles. This will anchor the wall.
   One way to level a floor is to cut several pieces of pipe about 6 inches below the floor joist. Weld a plate foot on the bottom. Weld small plate, with nail holes. on top of a 1 inch all thread rod. With a nut on the all thread and a washer this makes a jack. Set in place and tighten the nut to lift the floor. A couple of nails will hold the jack in place.
   A small welding shop can easily make these for you.
    Good Luck.
