Carolina Peaches Finest Grown
BY n. S. MOSHER

CAROLINA peaches are the Finest
0grown,' according to W., NJ. Scott,
director of peach marketing for Amer
lean Fruit Growers, who looks for a
yield of peaches in North and South
Carolina this season which will be with
ing Is per cent of last years produc
ton. Except for spots here and there,
where there was some cold damage early
in the season, the peach crop is about
normal The frost damage was spotted.
Consequently, expect we'll harvest
almost as many peaches as last year. To-
tai production should not be less than
IS per cent of the 1895 crop" is the
way Mr.. Scott explains the peach out
look.
The main crop OF Carolina peaches
is harvested between mid July and mid
August, although some peaches of the
earliest varieties ripen before that. The
standby, however, is the late crop Two

collects in droplets and also keeps
the air Of q colder temperature
from coming in contact with the
pipes. Moisture then doesn't have
a chance to start them rusting.
You will also need to have one
of the new gadget automatic regu-
lators installed for moisture con-
troll. This is called a humidiStat.
1t controls the moisture content of
the air.
For extra luxury there is also a
control that concentrates on the
moisture near the window paneS.
If the humidity near the window
paneS gets too high a mist forms,
and the window panes and the air
near them even in the best regu-
lated house is apt to be cooler than
that in the center Of the house
near the humidistat. So with one
of the new gadgetS this mist form
ing on the window panes can be
checked.
If you have the type of house
for installing this winter air-con-

kept many happy home owners
Observation-Disclosures" No walls
need be ripped out. The registers
are of the floor type and all the
duct work is on the ceiling Of the
basement floor.
If the house is small, only two
registers are required. The air
from the first floor is circulated,
filtered, and humidified. But
moisture added to the air in one
part Of the house quickly pene-
trates to other parts and to the
upstairs. This moisture content
of air is self-leveling so to speak.
This, in a nutshell, is the way to
have your winter air conditioning
installed with this type Of furnace
at a minimum cost. The only
connection between the air con-
ditioner and furnace desirable is
a lead pipe same size as those
going to the radiators that ITEM
pers" and takes the chill from the
outdoor air that comes in.
The Secret
Air in the major part of the
house can be recirculated but the
bath, kitchen, maids room are the
exception. The fans, of course,
are the secret in circulation.
The cost Of the winter air con-
ditioning depends on the size Of
the house. If you are considering
the installation, do choose a re-
liable dealer and get his advice.
He will base judgment on the re-
port made by an engineer trained
to analyze heating problems.
Not all old furnaces are of the
proper type to connect with win
ter air conditioning. If your fur
mace is of this type then money
spent for this equipment is
wasted. Other solutions may be
presented or you may find it
economy to select one Of the new
combination units for both heat
ing and air conditioning.
If your home already has a syS-
TEN of duct work installed but
they are of a metal type that will
rust if moist air is circulated
through them, then he may sug-
geSt to you a new lining for them.
This lining is of corkboard that is
put on the outside of the ducts.

were carefully studied. Only those
houses were considered that were
new and Of type that possessed
sufficient architectural interest to
indicate good taste on the part OF
the designer. All were one-family
houses, ranging from the preten
tiouS home to the modest cottage
One of the purposes Of the SUI
vey was to determine whether any
trend was evident in the selection
OF color and its application to spe-
clf1c portions of the exterior
whether the colors were bright or
dull-whether any one color pre-
Observation-Disclosures the use of
upper and lower body colorS was
prevalent and whether a single
body color appeared to be pre-
ferred. Finally, whether color in.
terest was we'll distributed or con-
centrated on some specific area.
Survey Results
When the surveyors came in
with their reports the results were
tabulated and it was discovered
that So Of the houses had a single
material used in the construction
OF the body-Such as clapboard,
shingle, stone or brick. while SO
OF the houses had more than one
material employed in the body con-
struction.
Fifty'Six per cent Of the houses
were Of a Colonial style of archi-
lecture, revealing the fact that the
trend in architectural develop
ment Is more along this line than
any other.
1t was also discovered that white
was the favored body color for the
houses, as this was the choice Ill
81 per cent of the structures.
Other colors followed in this or
der: Ivory, cream and warm gray,
light tan, silver gray, light gray
and light buff, pale lemon yellow,
light yellow, buff and pale green.
Quite interesting to notice, also,
is the fact that the use Of the
favored white was not limited to
clapboardS. but was applied with
equal favor upon brick, shingles,
stucco and even on some houses
Of stone.
The observers learned that, in
contrast to recent custom, the
trend is away from using trim
colors that contrast with the body
color of the house. In So per cent
Of the houses. the trim was
painted white.
The Washington times., 1936-10-17

4uGlS are Two ways OF dp-
preaching the matter-one is to
go on a tour of inspection of at
tractive homes and pick out
houses that are similar to yours
in architectural style. See what
colors have been used on them
and what combinations you like
best.
A second way to help determine
how your house would look with
a new color scheme is to take a
good snapshot of it, have the
photo enlarged if you wish-you
can get a better idea from the
larger Size-and then color several
photos with the different color
schemes you have in mind. If
you aren't nimble with an artists
brush yourself, you can have the
photos colored at the place where
you have your Photographic work
done. You can supply the artist
with color chips of the shades you
are considering to aid in making
the colored photo as near to the
desired picture as possible.
Some Suggestions
It's decidedly worth devoting
time and attention to the selec-
ton of your exterior color scheme.
You're taking it on, you know
for better or for worSe-for the
life Of the paint coating, so give
careful thought to the matter.
Be guided. Of course, by the
color of your roof and the houses
of your neighborS. No matter
how attractive your home may
look by itself, if it clashes with the
colorS of adjoining houses you'll
be disappointed.
Certain color schemes. also,
have become associated with GER
tain types of architecture, and
these accepted notions are helpful
in determining your color Selec-
ton. Just as there are some colors
that seem to belong" with Eng
lish half-timbered houses, and
there are color traditions that
cling to the rooftreeS Of Colonial
dwellings, so are there color com.
binationS that have become aSSo-
ciated with other distinctive types
of structures.
In spite Of these color traditions,
however, there are also definite
trends and styles in house paint
ing. Recently a survey has been
made to determine just which way
the color winds are blowing. Ono

it should be a distinct part Of the
