Small Homes For
Suburban District
Waahington, Oct. 18.?Forty plans
for inexpensive small houses, designed
especially to accommodate families in
rural and suburban areas, were dm-j
closed today to have been drawn by
federal subsistence homestead officials
to spur the decentrnhtfation of
industrial populations.
Officials expert this architectural
ervice, scheduled to blossom next
week. to encourage hundreds of famto
build new home;* of their
own on small tract* of land where
they '-.i r. rno?! of their food.
.**'jgg'--'.:or.s for the plantir?g of sub
r. e gaieien- over a three-year
period w... he s.'i'.jd^d in a booklet
containing tr.e r:'?u*e plan. The movewill
tie in with President Koo-sevelt's
hou-ir.g and decentralization drives.
Hear, Bo.- ton, chief architect in
the subsistence home-tead division,
told the As-(m liiti-d Press that plans
for three, four, five ar.d MX-rooin
hou-es would be presented.
An\one ^w.terested in a particular
plan -h iwn in the booklet, he. said,
could write ;n ar.d obtain a blue print
sheet shewing the four elevations of
the hou-e, the floor plan and a construction
section.
"That is as far a- we <i-re going
with detailed pans nr.fi specification.-,"
Bob-ton said, "because we
don't think it would he fair to the
architec t- of the country to do more,
font/actors in different localities
would not follow one universay. .set
of specifications anyway. Building
materials and conditions vary widely.
"We are suggesting in the booklet
that, unless they build exactly ac- '
cording to our plan, owners had bet- 1
ter consult an architect to supervise
const ruction."
Experience in subsistence homestead*,
which the government was
building ir many states, he -aid, had
established that the suggested homes
couid b?- built "under g'oup construction'"
at a cost i ar.g.rig from $1,300
no $3,000.
Mm-* of the- 10 planv he disclosed,
had followed the Ne w England farm
he, ii -I- type ?"a .-irnp.e, straight-forward
d?-sign"?but one-story bungalow
p<-- "founded or. Southern architecture'*
were offered for that section.
"The big problem," h?- added, "has
been to p reside sufficient proper
sleeping quarters for large families."
The indiviejual building encouraged
by the distribution of these plans
will be apart from gove rn rnent
financed activities, such as subsistence
home-Mead?. rural-industrial communities
built with relief funeis, slum
clearance by relief and I'WA fund"
and low-cost urban housing with public
works money,

Last Call For Oats
Made By Clemson
Clemson College, Oct. 22.?A last
call?^but an urgent call?for the
planting of oats is made by I>r. W. W.
Long, director of the Extension Serjvice.'
The call is made particularly
1 to thdke farmers who have not planted
as much oats as they might have
! because of uncertainty regarding the
Agricultural Adjustment Administration's
cotton acreage plans for l'J.'io.
Now that Secretary of Agriculture
H. A. Wallace has stated in a preliminary
announcement that the cotton
control plans w,i 1 continue into
with an a reage redy :t>on of
per cent or lo-i.v of t-hc ba-e ft'Tt*agc,
Dr. Long -ugge-ls that farmers
proceed to plan other crops, including
oat", for the acres taken out of
cotton.
The best planting time for oat.??
September ar.d October?is practically
gone, but oats planted now on
good land, it is pointed out, will still
make satisfactory yields. Fair yields
are sometimes made from spring .sowings,
but spring planting results in
lower yields and does - not~ mature
eariy enough for land to be most
profitably used the following summer.
These facts about oats may be well
ronsidered by farmers: Oats will oc(upy
to advantage acres taken out
of cotton; oats will help meet the
greater consumption of feed because
of western cattle; oats are adapted
to practica.iy all soils of the state
and are surer and safer as a crop
than corn and car. be grown at much
lower cash outlay.
Personal Belongings

Pasadena, Calif.?The popularity
of the late Marie Dressier was shown
recently in spirited bidd.ng at the

belongings.
Three small dolls were sold for $10.

Miss Adeie Muehlenfordt, Chicago
debutante, and Mrs. William Butler,
young Boston society matron, hurried
their visit here to bid on a bedspread
and a pillow cover which Miss Dressier
made in her illness. Neither of
these articles has been put up for

A crowd of l,o00 persons attended

Building Burned
At State Prison
Columbia, October 21.?The old
federal building, situated in the west
side of the penitentiary grounds,
?arly yesterday morning was almost
:omp)etely destroyed by flames which
started on the ground floor and, fanned
by a draft from an open elevator
shaft, quickly made their way upwards,
gutting the interior of the
building.
The building was used as a warehouse
and also Housed the grist mill,
trarpenter shop, paint mill and auto
repair shop. The damage was estimated
a? between $15,000 and $20,000.
rhe building was insured for $15,000,
iccording to the secretary of the
;tate sinking fund commission and at
the time it was insured it was valued
it $20,000.
The origin of the fire was un

Protect Our Forests
Do "unto others as you would have
them do upto you. Would you set
fire to your neighbor's timber ? Be
careful with your matches and camp
fires.
I have no right to burn off your
land.
Insure against fire and little pir?e
trees will bring money.
An acre well set in pines ar.d protected
from fire will grow 1 to 2
cords of wood or 30 to 500 board feet
of saw timber yearly.
Timber is a savings bank. The
trees are the capital or principal, r.ew
growth is the interest. Each day the
interest is added?and the cashier
cannot run away. Start a fire and
you may lose both capital and interest
and assume a mortgage.
Little fires kill little baby trees,
Grass and birds, but no ticks nor
fleas.
Big fires kill big trees,
Keep the fires out, please.
Our boys and girls will hold us
responsible for the destruction of our
forests by fires caused through carelessness
and indifference. Shall we
take away what rightfully belongs to
them.
Stop burning the woods and wealth
will grow!
