ton for many weeks to come

bring together many facts deal
ing with the history and the So
cial, economic and residential
aspects of this dynamic region.

Homes is the only comprehensive
list available that shows the To-
cation of projects now under
way in the Washington Metro

most needed as the work went
along" he said.
The Thornasons lived in their
small house only a short time
after completing it, meanwhile
having started a second house.
BY the time the second house
was completed. they had started
a third. Each decision to build a
larger house was prompted by
the birth of an additional child.
when the twins arrived. we
knew we'd have to have a bigger
house." Mr.. Thomson said.
The first house had one bed
room. no basement. and an attic
only for storage. 1t had dimen-
sions of 20 by 81 feet.
The second had two bedrooms,
"a basement. two porches, one of
them screened; and no upstairs
rooms. 1t had dimensions of %
by rs feet.
The third had a basement and
second floor. and included four
bedrooms. 1t had dimensions of
"a by % feet.
The original tract bought by
the Thomasons was large enough
to provide a spacious building
site for all the houses. as we'll as
a fourth which Mr.. Thomson
has just built and rented. The
first two homes that the family
outgrew were also rented.

The Thomasons live at 69ll

the Work. So much did he acquire
the habit of home building. that
he has just completed a fourth
which he has rented.
Mr.. Thomson is 80 years old;
his wife 81. His oldest child
Terry, is 7 years old. Other chill
dien are: Mary Ellen, s; Jack
and Jane, 3-year-old twins; and
Ann, 2.
Mr.. Thomason's theory was
simple: Fit youl home to your
family's needs.
The couples assets when they
got back from their honeymoon
in 1947 amounted to several
hundred dollars. They lived in
apartments for about year
then used all their savings
about 81 100 to buy boat.
Lived on a Boat
For the next two years, they
lived on the boat, docking it at
the BuzZard Point boatyard, at
the foot of First street S.W.
Meanwhile, their first child
was born and another was on the
way. So Mr.. Thomson borrowed
$1,000. added it to additional
funds he had saved, and bought
several acres adjoining District
Heights. in Prince Georges
County, Md.
Almost at once, he started
construction of a sewage dis
posal system for the house. With
in about a year. he and his wife
had finished construction of "the
outside shell" of a house.
1T didn't contain anything
much at first. but it gave us
shelter" he said.
They dug a we'll just before
moving in, and then worked for
the next year to complete and
equip the interior, spending
money as he earned it.

side line" flOcks. The bigger COM
mercial poultry operations are not so
much troubled with it because they
practice regular culling and replace
ment. In small farm or backyard
flock, this disease can become. a seri-
Gus business if it is allowed to get a
hold. !
tuberculosis is usually seen only in
birds one year old or older. It is. rare
in pullets. The disease is brought into
flock by an infected bird and is spread
by contamination of floors, yards, feed
and water with infected droppings. The
disease is slow to develop and results
in symptoms of lameness, progressive
loss of condition and weight, and often
persistent diarrhea An autopsy of
an affected bird that has died from this
cause shows yellow or white nodules
along the intestine and also in the en-
larged, muShy liver and spleen.
Treatment Impossible
Treatment is impossible. Once the
disease has become active in a flock,
the best policy is to eradicate it by
slaughter and follow this up either by
thorough disinfectiOn of the house or,
if the house is of little value, by aban-
doning those premises and establishing
a clean flock elsewhere.
It is a serious mistake to try to ''cut
the losses" by holding over So-called
healthy birds from the old flock.
Though these birds appear well, they
are almost certainly affected and will
develop the disease later. This even
applies to young pullets, if the disease
is not discovered in the flock until late
summer or fall.
Keep Only Pullets
The best way to prevent tuberculosis
from becoming a problem in a flock
is to keep only pullets, rather than
birds of mixed ages. Even if the
pullets become affected they will very
seldom spread the disease before they
are over year old. Remove the older
birds each year in the summer or fall
before they have a chance to cause
trouble.
Poultry tuberculosis can also affect
hogs and causes heavy losses each year
because of condemnation of hog car.
casses in packing plants This type
of tuberculosis is of little danger tC
man.
@. What is the best way to prevent
gOitre in farm animals?
A. Goitre is an enlargement of the
thyroid gland in the throat due to de
ficiency of iodine in the soil, water anC
feed The thyroid gland regulates tn,
growth of young animals and is con
cerned in the proper formation of ski
and hair. Iodine deficiency results il
hairleSSnesS or woOllessneSS and weak
ness in the newborn. Most young an
mails with goitre, particularly youn
pigs, die within a few hours of brit
or are born dead. Goitred calves, how
ever, quite often survive and may b
come entirely normal.
The condition is prevented by supply
ing the mother with iodine during pres
nancy. This can best be done by til
use of iodized salt (OO2 per cent p
tassium iodide). One ounce of pota
