GRAIN PLANTING For best results with grains in Georgia plant October 15 south of the tain area of the state, and to four weeks earlier in mountain sections, E. D. ander, Extension Service THE w. II SMITH HOUSE PLAN Well, here is that article on a warm hut I said I’d write for you. I must say to begin with that for twenty-six years I’ve been poring over house plans. I love ’em. To me they’re not just marks on paper, but real places where folks live in com¬ fort or misery. Ever since I be¬ gan to cut out pictures of houses as a girl I’ve been mad because it costs so much tc put together r. house of any kind to live in. Only recently did something come up which I thought was a real sure enough bargain. This happens to be an idea of my ole man’s, so I call it the W. H. Smith house plan. Over the sea in the old world you will find huts similar to this one I want to tell you about, and in the old countries these small houses grow simply wonderful looking, to me, that is, after they’ve stood two or three lifetimes and old ivy half covers their walls. The W. H. Smith house plan was concrete blocks, 528 in a 16x16 room with walls seven feet high. If you make ’em they cost 6c each. Around thirty-six dol¬ lars for the complete walls of a 16x16 ft. room which can be plastered on outside and inside, making walls beautiful as a dream. Of course you subtract 18 blocks for each door and 8 for each single window 32x32. To this 16x16 ft. room a 12x16 lean- to is added. It requires 320 blocks, not subtracting any openings. Now let me tell you something new—to begin this hut you smooth off a place as big as the house and dig down 8 inches, filling it with rocks and cement, thus making a level concrete floor on which to build the block walls. The whole house has onepiece cement floor over which a wooden floor can be fitted if you’re able to do so. The only timbers needed are the ones which hold up the roof— you can put wire over the gable ends and plaster ’em making ’em fire proof and permanent. In a house such as this no ants, rats, fire, or rot can molest or dam¬ age. There is no crazy corner settling, it stays “put.” You can add a block chimney and fire¬ place to the large room but they must be fire-proofed with brick and tiles for inside of fireplace and chimney as the strong black creosote whiich collects inside chimneys which are built on outside of buildings might eat through the block, creating fire hazard. The heat in the chimney contrasting with the cold outside causes this harmful neys exposed to bad weather The chimney will never settle crazy-sided if you dig below frost line and start your foun¬ dation for chimney. Another thing, run it at least 2 ft. above the house top—higher if many trees are about. Never put the lower side of windows lower than 4 feet from floor, as the cold air ends four feet up and warm air begins. This house never has a cold floor or drafts to freeze your back. It will take about— sacks of cement to make floor and set blocks together for the two rooms. My ole man has just finished a beautiful nine-room house for Dr. Ralph Martin here on Signal Mountain out of blocks plastered a natural pale grey— you should see it. You could use a long square bottle with water in it to lay on each block as you set it to see if it was level. See you later. Mrs. W. H. Smith. Let us serve instead of rule, knock instead of push at the door of human hearts, and al¬ low to each and every one the same rights and privileges that we claim for ourselves—Mary Baker Eddy.

The Southern Railway System carried him hundreds of thousands of miles ... to camps, to embarkation points, back home on furlough. Because of the vital job he was doing, we thought of him as the“Boss” ... and we still do. You see, this young man is now doing mighty im¬ portant things ... as a civilian. He’s building an even greater, stronger, and more prosperous Southland. And we’re still right alongside him ... helping. SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM - i —i Abundant Foods For Month Listed By PMA Official According to T. Hughes, assistant State of the Production and Administration, Market - Georgia housewives will do to keep one eye on their onion and potato bins in weeks ahead. Mr. Hughes listed Irish toes and onions as top "best buys” among bles, since supplies of throughout the country, and pecially in the southeast, better than in many He “tipped” housewives and er food buyers also on an ance of sweet potatoes, ed to hit the markets by ber. suggested this week. to be grazed should be two weeks earlier than he advised. One or more grain crops are grown in section of Georgia, he These crops protect the furnish food and feed and be substituted for corn or other grain crops grown for food feed. BROILER RAISERS In spite of feed shortages and a scarcity of labor, north farmers and poultrymen are still producing enough broilers to keep Georgia among the leading states in the Nation in this feild. Heaviest broiler production is concentrated in several northeast Georgia counties. While this state produced only 6,000.000 broilers in 1941, production jumped to 29,500,000 in 1945. Let us decide honestly what we can do, and then do it with all our might.—Amelia D. Barr. Georgia farmers may lose as much as $7 to $35 per bale this year if cotton is picked green or damp, according to State Ex¬ tension Service. “For real nutritive and ener¬ value,” Mr. Hughes “these three vegetables are to beat. Moreover, during period of abundance when, are relatively low, pota¬ and onions should be a- the most economical buys meal planners. He also urged housewives not overlook the possibility of quantiies of these veg¬ for storing. Quality cotton is needed if is to meet the competi¬ of synthetic fibers, cotton of the Agricultural Service point out. WANT ADS PIANOS TUNED, REPAIRED, regulated. Factory errors corrected.
