House (BTN)

The House is a type of farm building in Harvest Moon: Back To Nature. It is where the player can watch the news, fix a meal (after remodeling) and rest (in order to advance in-game days). Gotz, at the Woodcutter's House, can remodel the player's House two separate times. The default House includes a Bed, Diary, Television, Bookshelf, and Toolbox. Further upgrades allow Cooking, additional storage, and the ability to get married.
The main features of the House include:
*Bed/Diary - End the current day by skipping ahead to the next day, Saving (writing in your diary), Loading a game file (Reading Diary), or Deleting a game file.
*Bookshelf - Basic farming information.
*Toolbox - Stores all of your tools, starting at basic set and then to include other items such as Brush, Fishing Rod, Milker, etc.
*Television - Your television receives four channels. Press the directional buttons to choose a channel. The Weather Channel and News Channel will alert you to upcoming events, but the Farmer Fran show has advice and tips on how to maximize your farming performance.
*Calendar - The calendar on you wall displays all of the important holidays for each season. The shipper won't pick up crops on holidays. See also: Calendar of Events.
