Known as the “Agency Plains I Special” this type of temporary . . ’ . , . . house is popular in newly-irrigated areas because it reduces investment in housing and outbuildings to the lowest possible figure while the fanner and his family become es- tablished. Oregon State college rural hous ing specialists, however, urge farm- ers building this type of structure not to make the mistake of putting it on the site for their permanent home. After a permanent home is built, living quarters in the “spe- < lai” are intended to become stor age space for grain or other crops, or they may be opened into added machinery storage. Some farmers use theirs to house harvest or per manent hired help. The building shown is designed — DIAMONDS, WATCHES, JEWELRY — Bell J Hourii Cameras and Projectors— to take standard 24-foot trussed rafters. This makes it suited for construction with war surplus tnisse€t rafters which are still avail- able. Building length may be varied to fit needs of individual farmers since it is readily extended in 12- foot lengths. Living area in the lan shown is 24 feet square. A building of this size, 25 by 60 feet, will cost between $2.000 and $3,000. It is suggested that builders to not “over-build” the living quarters to a point where their investment will postpone con struction of a permanent home. Complete plans for the “Agency Plains Special" which include two sheets of drawings and a bill of ma terials may be ordered from the Oregon Farmhouse Plan Service. Oregon State college.
