THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1946 FARM and GARDEN Pajre Three a YOUR hOMt OF TOMORROW slope, it requires no basement. Laundry equipment and an automatic coal-fired, air-conditioning system for heating are located in the utility room which also provides enough space for household storage and gardening equipment. Exterior treatment of the house is as simple as its architectural lines. The walls are of hollow-clay tile, sandy-colored to blend with surroundings, set on poured tioned, ranging in size from 10x14 feet to 8x14 feet. By placing bedrooms on two floors, the designers made economical use of space and provision for a large 13x23 foot living room on the top floor to take advantage of a sweeping mountain view.

An outdoor terrace off the living room provides cover for a porch adjacent to the kitchen. Either the porch or another uncovered terrace at ground level JWTj TERRACE Dick Tolleson and Helen G. Bennett, Clerks. OWASSO PRECINCT NO. 2.

P. Rumsey, Judge; PRIME example of contemporary architecture is this modern home of functional arrangement and simple maintenance. Casually blended with a woodland setting and situated on a steep slope, it reflects the latest trend in home design Created by a husband-and-wife team of architects, Mr. and Mrs Alfred Clauss, the streamlined six-ioom house has the benefit of both masculine and viewpoints. Mr.

Clauds i oas become associated with George Daub, Philadelphia architect, since the home was built in a mountainous section near Knoxville, Tenn. One of the most novel features the home is its entrance at -ezzanine level. Entering the ont door, the visitor comes in a broad landing on the stair-ray leading up to living and leeping quarters on the second oor and to the functional on the ground floor To give daylight to the strangle stair landing and to add a nodern decorative touch which blends with the homes interior and exterior treatment, the architects installed a large panel of glass block beside the entrance. Besides adding a safety measure (of daylight, the 4x7-foot block partition protects privacy because it is not transparent. When view- ed from outside at night, the Ulrtr'k- hnc a Hrnmntirallv lumin- ous appearance.

Glass Block Saves Heat Another consideration dictating the use of glass block at the landing, which also serves as a small reception hall, is an economy in winter heating bills. The block, having an exceptional insulating quality equal to an eight-inch brick wall, keeps heat from escaping and presents no opening for the chilly drafts which usually sweep down a stairway. The home, built especially for a family of two adults and two children, has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. One bedroom and bath is on the ground floor, isolated from kitchen and dining activities, while the master bedroom and a smaller chamber are adjacent to the bath op he second floor. All are nropor- Fight Boll Weevil By Plowing Under The Cotton Stalks By C.

P. STILES, Extension Entomologist Wherever cotton can be picked out before frost, it is of great practical importance to destroy the stalks by plowing them under. The primary purpose is to eliminate the food supply of the weevils and cause them to use their strength in search of food or force them into early hibernation in a half-starved condition. This practice is most beneficial in the southern portions of the state where the season is longest, cotton matures earliest and weevil damage is usually heaviest. Where properly done, it is the cheapest and most effective method of weevil control possible for the next seasons crop.

Proof of the effectiveness of this kL TPORCHi. iPv- GROUND FLOOR can be used for outdoor dining or entertaining. If desired, the porch could be enclosed for use as a den or recreation room. The dining room, which measures 11x14 feet, is placed convenient to the kitchen and at the rear to provide privacy and access to the mountain scenery. Windows on two sides give it cross ventilation, a feature that is also built into all three of the bedrooms.

A 9xl2-foot kitchen, scientifically arranged to save steps and work, a large utility room and an integral garage complete the home's unusual layout The kitchen and utility room windows are set rather high in the interior walls and open on the exterior elevation almost at ground level. Since this house is built on a method of weevil control has been clearly demonstrated in the Lower Rio Grande Valley where early destruction of cotton stalks is required by law as a control measure for pink bollworm. Texas state regulations requiring destruction of stalks by September 1st became effective in Cameron and Hidalgo Counties for the first time in 1945. The weevil infestation in the 1946 crop was greatly reduced and practically a full crop of cotton was obtained without the need for poisoning, except in comparatively few instances. Experiments have shown that about three times as many weevils survive the winter when cotton stalks are allowed to stand in the fields until November 1st, as when destroyed by the middle of October.

Community cooperation and action in plowing under cotton stalks is desirable and most effective, but concrete foundation walls. The flat roof and square outline add much to its modern appearances. Interior walls are plastered. Floors are of hard wood. Like many contemporary designs, this Tennessee home is less expensive than it looks.

By using economical materials and eliminating unnecessary frills, the architects kept the well within present government restrictions. This home, featured in a recent issue of Progressive Architecture Magazine, is built on a lot which measures 120x240 feet, but could be placed in less space. An important feature of the design is that it makes use of sloping ground W'hich only a few years ego was believed unsati' factory for a home site. a single farmer will get much benefit from his own efforts because his neighbor who does not bury stalks will have his own weevils and part of those from the field where the stalks have been plowed under. Wherever conditions may permit, the early fall destruction of cotton stalks is the last step in making the cotton crop of 1946 and the first step in making the 1947 crop more economical and more profitable.
