Easy to build and “gives lots for your money"—that is the reason
many farmers in Oregon's newly-irrigated sections are putting up com
bination house-machine sheds such as this.
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.
