ATTRACTIVE HOUSE DESIGNED
TO MEET NEEDS OF FARM FAMILY
General View
The Clemson Extension Service
calls attention to this attractive
house designed to meet the needs
of the farm family. It’s tailored
to meet every need. It's designed
to save steps, to cut down house
work, and to reduce traffic through
the kitchen. It's pretty as a pic
ture—and roomy, with accent on
comfort.
The workroom with benches,
sink, and built-in closets oilers a
place to do the messy jobs that
used to be done in the kitchen—
canning, wasiung, and cleaning
chickens.
Menfolk coming in from chores
can hang up their wraps in the
workroom closet and wash up in
the lavatory nearby.
The kitchen is a handy U ar
rangement where everything is
within reach. It is large enough
to provide ample room for a din
ing table and has plenty of built-
in cabinet Space.
The bathroom is close to all
three bedrooms. Cross ventlation
in the two large bedrooms offers
maximum comfort in summer. And
there is enough closet space to
satisfy any woman.
Walls of hollow concrete block
help keep the heat out in summer
They are strong and durable and
offer low upkeep expense. The
floor is of rotproof, termite-proof
concrete.

plans for this house may be or

Termites, the “cancer” of build
ings, now can be controlled. Through
all the ages the tiny insect that
feasts on wood in homes, farm build
ings and other structures has been
a constant destroyer. Annual prop
erty losses run far into the millions.
Ordinary control measures could
not get at the intricate tunnels hid
den away in difficult and impossible
to reach places.
A new device, hailed as an effec
tive means of combatting the de
structive pest, was demonstrated at
the annual convention of the Nation
al Association of Home Builders in
Chicago by W. B. Hill of Memphis,
Tenn., nationally known as a termite
expert.
His method consists of installing a
series of slotted pipes at the time of
construction in all inaccessible
areas, Including dirt-filled porches,
sun parlors, stoops, steps and fire
places. Annually a perforated pipe
is slipped into the allotted pipes and
all hidden areas are treated with a
powerful chemical toxic blown

the tiny insects.
through openings in the pipes.
Hill, who has spent 20 years figur
ing ways of waging war on the ter
mite^ also has devised a display
showing live termites at work. En
closed in glass, his small scale mod
el home has an army of hungry ter
mites actually at work constructing,
their intricate network of mud tun
nels or shelter tubes. It shows the
worker, the soldier on guard and the
Immature, young potential queen
who swarms in the spring.
Beware the ‘New Look/
Crop Specialist Advises
Beware the “new look,” espe
cially in crop varieties. That is the
advice of Joe Robinson, Iowa State
college agronomist.
“New varieties seem to hold
some sort of magic charm over
many farmers,” stated Robinson.
“I am happy to see the farmer
change to new varieties whenever
they can increase his yield but just
because a variety carries a new
name Is no indication of its value.”
Robinson pointed out that per
formance records are more impor
tant than newsness.
Selection of suitable hybrid com
varieties creates another problem.
Unlike other crops, sorrte hybird
corn varieties are produced by only
one concern. Eligibility of both the
private hybrid lines and the experi
ment station lines for certification
depends on the performance rec
ords in a corn yield test.
Mosquito Control
Use of DDT, 2,4-D and other
newly-developed weed killers is
aiding efforts for mosquito con
trol. Cost of some of the new in
secticides, however, makes their
use prohibitive on large mosquito
breeding areas. Ditching and
other more permanent methods
still must be resorted to in those
areas.

agricultural experiment station,

tion commission.
Income From Poultry
Increases in Nebraska
Sale of poultry and eggs has been
accounting for 9 to 12 per cent of
the cash farm income in Nebraska,
according to figures compiled by
J. H. Claybaugh, extension poultry-
man. •
Yearly egg sales have been more
than 50 million dollars and as high
as 57 million for the past five years.
Sales of poultry have averaged
more 'ban 20 million, reaching a
peak of 27 million.
