'THE OREGON STATESMAN. SALEM. ' PREGGNV SUNDAYMORKIKG'ULY 8,192, 1 11 'A HI 1 ! ! . A Homo Whoso Appeal Is Instantaneous THE TUSCUMBIA DESIGN A470 THIS home was added to our collection in rather an unusual manner, typical, however, of the house itself as it ap pears amid its sister residences of frame ". construction in Shaker Heights, Cleveland. The man who discovered it, or, more properly a- speaking, to whom it reached out compell l ingly and stopped, was driving around on a tour of construction , inspection, really seeking ideas for a proposed home of his own. : At sight of this house he '.stopped. That is the sort of house it is. It hits you right be tween the eyes with its impressiveness.. It has variety far above the usual in a home so small. There is stone tossed randomly into the common brick walls and, adding to the interest, there is patternwork in the paneling, and stucco with English timbered treatment to complete the very effective pic ture. And no monotony. The brick used in this particular home were run of kiln common brick, varying in colors according to their exposure to the fire in the burning, with here and there a few clinkers, and all of them enlivened by the delicate touch of fire flashings. The house stood i ut in its surroundings like a fire bush in a thicket and sold long before it was com pleted. One can readily see why. Its interior ar rangement is just as delightful as its exterior appearance. There is consider ably more living apace than one would expect In a, home of its size and the arrangement is . mo3t convenient. An exceptionally large living room, well lighted dining room, break fast nook and kitchen, with a sun room off the living room, comprise the first floor. On the second floor are four comfortable bed rooms, an ample bath and a dressing closet over the sun room, v.hlch, if desired, might easily be converted into a cozy sewing room.

An Every Day Affair KEEP WINDSHIELD CLEAN DUSTRY lumber ir: Kin ui Importance of Campaign to Oregon and Washington Found Very Great The lumber industry of the Portland district ha enlisted in tbe trade extension campaign that has been worked out for tbe West Coast Lumbermen's association by Colonel W. B. Greeley. Its secre tary and manager. Colonel Gree ley in tbe brief time he has been associated with the lumber indus try of tbe Pacific northwest has taken hold of its problems ag gressively. He lays stress upon the necessity for better merchan dising of this commodity wh so vital to the prosperity of gon and Washington. The Industry Itself has felt in the past that there hare been many weaknesses in its selling op erations. There has not been the same organized and persistent campaign to open new markets and enlarge existing ones that other lines of manufacturing have promoted, Xor has there been any real system of control so lumber would be distributed to the greatest advantage. In slack times production has vastly ex ceeded consumption. Tbe desire to. liquidate surplus stocks has of ten influenced shippers to surfeit their best markets, and sales were made at a loss. Of the association's annual bud get of $700,000, trade extension ha been assigned $409,500. Ap parently a large amount, it is small in comparison with funds being spent for similar purposes by other industries. It is but a beginning toward the campaign of education that should be waged for the wider use of Douglas fir and other western woods. In eon- n.Hn ti. nmnilrB the InmDer- men have the advantage of real- Ixlng the sound merit of their pro duct and the assurance that mar kets once built op will be perma nent. ' Th ImDortanee of the lumber inrinatrv to Oregon! and Washing ton cannot be mentioned, too of- tmn. Colonel Greeley rinas inn the annual production of lumber In these two states ' exceeds $280, 000.000, and that this figure Is increased to more than $338,000, 000 when all forest products are included. It is the keystone in me prosperity ui; m 4 mmv. . northwest and any effort to Im- . ill n f prove it siaius wm reuuuuu w tbe benefit of all.

While the current West Coast Lumber men's barometer reflects a some-, what smaller volume of new busi ness, this is due In large measure to the nearness of the holidays i and the unwillingness of mills to I take on much new business.

But considering the ACTUAL exceedingly small difference in first cost, there is little excuse for any home builder to accept the heavy obligation of upkeep which will be a burden as long as he occupies the house.

The accompanying design unites these elements in a pleasing design that has proved pop ular with many builders dur ing the 1924 season. Treatment of the entryway is excellent and the two coat closets are a conven ience which will be appre ciated by the housekeeper. I me ramus aiuug ms toy ui the poreh adda an orna mental touch to the front facade and the two dormer windows fit pleasingly, into the design. Wall plantfngs will add materially to the exterior appearance. The ground floor Is nicely portioned and the position of the fireplace will compen sate in extra heat for the space occupied. The living, room is of ample size and is well lighted. Arrangement of the dining room and kitchen is ideal. The downstairs chamber is large enough for o dinary use and its windows afford cross ventilation. The central hall ties in all the rooms on the ground floor and a stair- ' way leads to the upper story. The upstairs bedrooms are of excellent dimensions and well supplied with light, ventilation and closet space. The sleeping porch shown in the plan is located directly above the bath room and if the owner desires this space may be easily altered for use as an upstairs bath room. Cost of this house should be well within the means of the average family. 1 LUCHU 1 I CUMVL1 i s " DillXG L-l " MLL C UO imsG iLooai T r run JJ 0 0 L P ilk I W O 9 I 4 1 I -lu.

There m.y be manufacturers who will disre gard this suggestion for reasoiM which seem adequate, but t!i' West Coast Lumberman believe the great majority of manufai Hir ers will heed the experineces of the past and operate cautiunsly during the last hair of tbe year. It now appears that there will be a sharp reduction in the output of logs on Puget Sound and Grays Harbor during the next six weeks. The red cedar shingle and lum ber markets are firm and higher. There are two explanations for tl upward trend of cedar prices, first, the great scarcity of cedar loss, with higher prices and secondly, a brisk demand for red reilur shingles. Rather restricted produc tion has also been a feature in strengthening the shingle market.
