What fuses under dash of 72 F-100?

OK, another question from a rookie:

I have a '72 F-100, and I'm trying to fix some of the little things for right now. There is a fuse box under the dash board. It has about 4 or 5 slots for fuses, but only one fuse. The others fuse slots seem to be shorted with tin foil! I guess the previous owner is resourceful.

So, my question is, what are these fuses for? And what size fuses do I need to install? Can someone give me a quick rundown from top to bottom (like 1-5 = so and so, and such and such)??

Thanks in advance as always!

Take a bright light and take a lookie around the edge of each fuse holder, there should be a name to what it goes to and the amperage of fuse to protect that circuit.

Well if it is the one I am thinking of.

Starting where the wiring comes into the fuse box and working away from there:

Closest is the 20 amp heater fuse
below that is 14 amp B-U Lights,Turn signals,Windshield washer fuse
Below that is a 3 amp instrument lights fuse

now where Two fuse sockets are beside each other:
the left one is a 15 amp dome light,cigar lighter,Courtesy & Cargo light fuse
The right one is a 20 amp Hazard light & stop light fuse.
