Many problems and restric-
tions once associated with use
of lumber have been largely
eliminated. Lumber members
are now available in almost
any shape. any length. any
thickness. Fire and weather
hazards have been reduced.
Here are some Of the more
outstanding developments in
the use Of lumber:
Structural Clues: Modern
adhesives are used to develop
very large structural mem
bers from 1-inch and 2-inch
thicknesses of standard lum-
Der. Straight, ,tapered and
curved beams: "V" shaped.
parabolic and circular arches
are examples. Clues are
stronger than the wood it
self, can be water resistive
for interior structures and
waterproof for exterior ex-
poSure.
Strength Generation: Tests
on strong structural woods
prove that high natural
strength can be virtually
doubled by proper seasoning.
Grading rules give strength
ratings to lumber seasoned

Fire Resistance: Certain
water borne chemicals give
clean. odorless, paintable
lumber. provide fire resist
ance and. in some cases, pro-
lection against decay and in
sect attack. The greatest
assurance against FIRE in
wood structures is good build
ing technique. The United
States Forest Products Lab
oratory reports that modern
heavy timber construction Is
"far safer" in the event Of
fire than unprotected" steel.
Such methods take advan.
tage Of woods natural insula-
ton and slow transmission Of
heat.

Fur-Trin,nled
Clothes Are
Back In Style

Women who sew at home may
want to give their clothes the
1889 look" by trimming them
with fur, according to Mrs. Orena
Haynes, Ohio State University
extension specialist. After more
than two decades, a record fur
trimmed season is expected this
fall. Fur is being used on coats,
suits, dresses, stoles, hats, gloves,
and muffs.
Whether using new or old fur,
care should be taken to match
the flow of the fur at the seams,
says Mrs. Haynes. Then even
small pieces or odd shaped soaps
can be joined to make profess
sional looking trim. When sew
ing two pieces of the fur togeth-
er, use a fine needle and make
close overland stitches. Keep the
pelt sides out and be sure to push
their hair away from the cut
edges you are joining.
A razor blade and not shears
should be used to cut fur, Mrs.
Haynes says. Mark the outline
Of the pattern on the skin side
and cut through the pelt from the
skin side, too, being sure not to
cut the hairs of the fur, she ad-
vises. Loosely sew or tack" a
layer of padding, such as outing
flannel or cotton Wadding, to
the pelt side. This helps fur look
better and wear longer.
The fur will probably be at
tached to a piece of the garment
material or to a lining fabric
that is of similar shape. To fasten
fur to cloth, first sew tape about
one-half inch wide to the edge of
the fur. To do this put the tape
against the fur side, pushing the
hair back from the edge, and
use an overland stitch to sew
| the tape and pelt together. When
attaching the tape to the garment
or lining, turn it over to the
skin side and sew through the
tape close to the fur, Mrs. Haynes
| says.
Improve the appearance of
your finished fur trim by damp
ening the fur hairs-not the skin
slightly with a wet sponge.
Cover the fur with tissue paper
and run a hot iron quickly over
the paper. Then remove the pap
cr and run the hot iron very
quickly directly over the fur. Be
sure to work in the direction the
hair flows, Mrs. Haynes cautions

Here'5How To Gel
Clean (i5tern
Water Into Home

Many rural Ohioans who have
found ground water supplies
limited or so full of minerals
that treatment is impractical
have turned to cisterns for
water.
One problem in using cistern
water is that often it is not clean
enough for bath and laundry
purposes. This is true especially
where roofs collect leaves, SCOT
and dust. Melville L. Palmer,
Ohio State University extension
agricultural engineer, offers
these suggestions for getting
Clean cistern water into the
home:
l. Use screens over the cutters
to keep leaves, tWigs and other
debris out of them. Screens are
available commercially or can be
made by using ha-inch mesh
hardware cloth about 6 inches
wide.
2. Use an automatic roof wash
er at the end of the doWnspout
to trap fine debris before it goes
into the cistern. This can be made
with a small barrel which catches
the first 10 or Is gallons of water
off the roof, then overflows into
the cistern. A small hole or tap
in the bottom will allow it to
drain between rains, and it can
be cleaned out as needed.
3. Place a soft brick or cinder
block filter wall inside the els,
tern SO that water goes in on one
side and is taken out the other
4. Use floating intake to get
the cleanest water out of the els
tern. Such an intake consists OF
plastic pipe or rubber hose
with a screened opening at the
end that is suspended a few
inches below the water surface
with a float. The device is avail
able commercially, or it can be
made at home.
5. Slope the floor of the cistern
to low point and install an
overflor pipe at this point SO the
end of the pipe is about 2 inches
above the floor. This will draw
the overflow water from the
bottom of the cistern instead of
the top, thus helping to make
the cistern cleaning.
6. If the water is to be used
for human consumption, it should
be chlorinated automatically as
a safety precaution. The filter
wall will not remove bacteria
that may be present.

home water supplies can be OBJ
tanned from county extension Of
fices and county health depart
ments, Palmer says.

that producers IN this county
owning 4,2l3 sheep voted for and
producers owning 2,233 sheep
voted against continued deduc-
tions. On the basis of individual
producer voting, the vote was 68
percent for and 80 percent
against the plan.
Nationally Mr.. Carter said,
preliminary results show that
about SO percent of the producers
participating voted for continu-
ing the deductions and 81 percent
voted against. The affirmative
vote represented 81 percent of
the sheep owned by voters.
The national vote in this years
referendum was more than SO
percent greater than IN 1855,
both on a producer and on a
sheep basis. This year, about
100000 producers owning more
than 20 million sheep voted, COM
pared to a total vote in 1855 of
$1,000 producers owning l3 mil
lion sheep.
The referendum was held to
determine producer approval of
a proposed agreement between
the Secretary of Agriculture and
the American Sheep Producers
Council, and organization of
sheep producers. The agreement
would continue deductions from
wool payments made under the
National Wool Act for another
three years. These deductions
provide funds to finance the
councils advertising, promotional
and related market development
activities on lamb and wool.
