This age in which we live is all
age of specialization. Our forefa
theirs found it necessary to be able
to do a number of things paSsably
well. But now one who would at
tain any measure of success in life,
must concentrate upon learning to
do one thing supremely well. And
as we approach our goal of ex-
treme proficiency in our chosen
line of endeavor, we will probably
find that we are becoming CORE
spondingly less proficient in other
lines. There is a natural law of
compensation which works both
ways.
Probably most of us have had
the experience of having some one
whom we considered quite intelli-
gent make some comment or ask
some question about our work which
struck us as being unutterably
dumb. Our first reaction is, why
anybody ought to know better than
that! But upon second thought we
will probably realize that we are
just as dumb about their work as
they are about our own.
Recently l had such an expert
ence when man who stands high
in his own Profession asked me,
I'm planning a park, what is the
customary number of trees to plant
to the acre?" For a moment I was
at loss for an answer. had never
before thought of planting parks
in terms of SO many trees to the
acre, as one would plant an orange
or grapefruit grove. Landscape de-
signing just isn't done that way.
And then it occurred to me that no
doubt there are a great many peo-
pie who have as little idea about
how landscape designing is done
as this gentleman had.

Funds Available
To Finish Homes

1t is possible to carry out all of
the work needed to make the un-
used space tenable. Flooring may
be laid, wiring completed, heating
and plumbing fixtures Installed, and
the room partitions built.
A somewhat common practice
among home builders of moderate
circumstances has been to erect a
story-and-one-half or a two-story
house and leave the top floor in an
unfinished condition, the idea being
that as the space was needed and
money to carry out the work could
be obtained the home would be
completed.
The Property Improvement Cred
it Plan, which operates under the
Title 1 of the National Housing
Act, now makes funds available for
this type of completion work. A
loan of as much as $4,000 may be
obtained and repaid in equal month
ly installments over maximum
period of five years and thirty days.
Imperial Valley press., 1938-04-10
Increased Credit
Offered Farmers

WASHINGTON, DC. - Opportu-
nifty for extensive farm moderniza-
ton has been greatly increased by
the authority granted under the
newly amended National Housing
Act. Under the old Modernization
Credit Plan, as it operated under
the original Title 1 of the Act, a
limit of $4,000 was set as the maxi
mum amount of credit insurable
for farm improvements.
A farmer may now, under the
provisions of the Property Improve
ment Credit Plan of the amended
Title I, obtain maximum of $10,-
600 for repairs, additions, altera-
tionS to existing farm-houses and
auxiliary buildings.
In addition to funds for repairs,
the farmer is offered an opportu-
nifty of obtaining as much as $4,000
for the construction of new build
ingS. Eligible for this financing are:
Farmhouses, barns, hennerys. silos.
garages, wayside stands, gasoline
stations, and tourists cabins.
These funds are not loaned by
the Federal Housing Administra-
tion. 1t acts as an insuring agency
for banks, building and loan asso-
Citations, finance companies, and
other lending agencies.
Imperial Valley press., 1938-04-10

eagain, as in 1920, prove to be the
Noses to lead general business up
out of hard times.
Many will recall that back in
1920 and 81 it was home building
that pulled the country out of a
major depression. Late in 1920,
business in this country went into
a tailspin with one of the worst
depressions in history in immediate
prospect. Late in 1921 it was appar-
rent that despite general business
conditions, home building was
moving very rapidly ahead, and
by 1922 this country was out of
this depression, having been pulled
up from the depths by reason of
unprecedented home building.
History apparently is about to
repeat itself.
Mortgages selected for appraisal
by the regional offices of the Fed
eral Housing Administration have,
since the start of the FHA mort
gage lnSuring program, proved a
most reliable barometer of current
and future residential building &C
tivity. The week ending March 26,
1898, established an all-time high
of Individual home projects, having
total mortgage valuation of $22,-
568,2l9. This was the fourth con-
Secutive week that new all-time
high records have been set, and
the fifth consecutive week that
1888 volume exceeded that of the
corresponding week of 1887. This
five-weeks period showed a total
of. over $94,000,000 in mortgages
submitted to the FHA in 1898, a
30 per cent increase over ST. ,0OO,-
600 for the same period in 1887,
a period then considered gratify-
ingly active.
These encouraging reports of the
rising tide of Small-home FHA
mortgages preliminary to construc-
ton are further confirmed by cur
rent reports of residential con-
tracts let, as compiled by the F. w.
Dodge Corporation. The figures
from this source show that the
slump in home building contracts
which started last June ran itself
cut in the last half of the year
and reversed the downward trend
with a 10 per cent upturn in Febru-
ary over January. Then in March
that upturn has gathered momen-
tum.
The growing volume this spring
OF home building contracts let and
OF mortgage commitments on new
homes clearly indicates that the
buying public is well satisfied with
the values, terms and prices now
prevailing in the new home field.
Ihey indicate widespread eager
ness on the part of families of
small and moderate income to gain
the independence of home owner
ship under present favorable con-
ditionS.
If there was any question as TO
need for easier home financing.
or as to" the probable response
from the home-hungry public to a
proposition for a smaller cash
down payment with a longer time
10 pay off the balance monthly at
a low interest rate, that question
is being conclusively answered by
the people themselves in their
response to the new F'HA 90 per
cent, 25-year finance plan.

BEAUTIFICA CATION AND
BUILDING q
F. H. A. INSURES
.LOANSFORFARM
WATER SYSTEMS

Increased activity in the modern
ization of farm dwellings is fore
seen as a result of the revival of
Title I of the National Housing
Act. Included in the amended act
are provisions for the insurance of
loans made for the purpose of re-
pairing and undermining existing
farm houses.
Among the Improvements that
may be financed with funds insured
by the Federal Housing Admins
tration are the purchase and in
stallation of water systems. This
type of improvement is one that
is in great demand by rural resi-
dents. 1t is estimated that slightly
more than one-tenth of the 6,792,-
462 farm homes in this country are
equipped with running water.
The foremost reason for this ap-
parent neglect has been the inabil-
ity of farmers to purchase the sys-
TENS on a deferred-payment plan.
Such terms have been needed be-
cause of the lack of ready cash in
agricultural areas.
The revised Title I permits the
farmer to pay for a water system
in convenient monthly payments,
or seasonal payments, extended
over period of as long as five
years. he charges are the most rea-
sonable ever made for this type of
loan. The loans are granted on a
character basis. No collateral or
mortgage is demanded.
Private Funds
The funds are not Government
funds. The Federal Housing Ad-
ministration does not lend any
money but it encourages private
lending institutions such as banks,
building and loan associations, and
finance companies to make funds
available for this purpose by insur-
ing them against loss.
The installation of an adequate
water system IN the farm home
will make it possible to add a
bathroom. install hot Watfc heat
ing, and equip the kitchen with an
p-to-date sink. Aside from the
convenience, a water system will
also eliminate considerable druid
gerry formerly neceSsitated by hanc
pumps.
