Mother's kitchen today com bines beauty with utility. Her work areas are planned to save steps and her storage spaces seem to hold more utensils than the hotel kitchen. The same casy-to-clean surface finishes that have become com monplace on refrigerators, ranges, metal cabinets and other kitchen equipment have climbed up the walls and covered the ceiling in recent years. The development of prefinished wallpanels has made this possible, and today's housewife needs spend but little time keeping her kitchen walls and ceiling spotless. Prefinished wallpanelling ma terial is a thin, flexible hardboard finished at the factory with baked enamel in a wide variety of colors and textures including wood grain, plain colors, tile pattern, horizontal lined patterns, leather, granite and marble. It is adaptable 10 new construc tion or remodelling since it can be applied over any flat dry sur face by means of a special adhesive. HOMEand GARDEN HARRY R.

The roots then have an oppor tunity to become established in their new home while the plant in its annual resting stage demands scarcely any food. Simple instructions on how to plant roses are contained in the new leaflet, "Beautify America WHAT'S NEW wiih NEIL & GERRY More Herman Miller furni ture in this week. Plastic shell lounge chairs in Red. Very neat and comfortable. Charles Earns did a fine job when he designed these chairs for Herman Miller. They fit the body, are light and strong and are very easily cleaned. They are the answers to the problem of comfort and easy upkeep in a small space. A beautiful pair of three branch wall sconces of brass ar rived this week also. These are Rococco in design and very graceful. Many people have asked us to stay open until later, so, starting tomorrow, Monday the 22nd, we will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. six days a week. We hope this will make it easier for those who work to get out to our shop. To us, lovely lamps, furniture and decorative accessories change a house into a home. Having nice things around us makes for enjoyable living, and it is our belief that truly beau tiful and different articles make it easier to express one's indi viduality and dignity as a per son than merely mediocre items will do. We have found that in most cases it costs no more to express oneself originally than to follow along in beaten paths. For this reason, we have have unusual and strikingly beautiful decorative and useful merchan dise at NEIL & GERRY'S, 1760 West 11th Ave., Eugene. Eve nings by appointment, open un til 6 p.m. with Roses," recently published by the All-America Rose Selec tions. Select Good Site First step is to select a site that receives at least four to six hours of sunlight each day. Don't plant roses too close to trees or shrubs whose roots will compete for soil nutrients. When the soil is unusually poor, dig out the beds to a depth of 12 to 15 inches. Mix the soil six or eight inches below this with well rotted manure or compost. Mix the rest of the soil with 25 per cent peat moss. If neces sary, install a layer of gravel or stones at the bottom of the bed and leading away from it, to carry off excess water. With the bed prepared, the pamphlet outlines the six simple steps to assure a successful rose garden next season. They are: 1. Plant as soon as possible I after arrival. After unpacking, soak root in a pail of muddy water about the consistency of syrup to cover the roots with damp soil. 2. Dig holes large enough to accomodate roots without crowd ing and deep enough to set them at the proper height. The bud un ion or crown of the plant should be level with or slightly be!ow the surface of the ground after soil has settled. 3. Spread roots so they pointi downward at a forty-five degree angle. Cover the roots with loose soil, working it well underneath so they are in a firm position, 4. Fill the ho!c three-fourths full and tamp soil down (irmly: pour a half bucket of water and allow to soak in to eliminate air pockets. Fill hole with soil. 5. Prune any bruised or spind ling stems. 6. Mound excess soil around base; remove soil carefully in spring as soon as growth has started. Label all plants. It is hard to convey in words the beauty, grace and symmetry of these extraordinary trees. They must be seen to be appreciated as they are too large to get into a photograph. They look exotic and foreign. Not Oregon Natives They are not native Oregon trees. Even the cones on the de odora have a look reminding the observer of a Hindu turban. For Lane Couty folks who are interested in learning more about Oregon trees a newly published booklet, "Trees to Know in Ore gon," can be obtained at Mr. Fletcher's office in the Public Market. This is a 1950 extension bulletin from Oregon State College. Home Building Is Old Process How long have we been build ing houses? In the United States, most peo ple regard log cabins as the oldest type of house, although the Pil grims built frame dwellings. in Europe it is common to find houses still being used that are six or seven hundred years old. But now comes a Chicago scien tist with a Gciger-type counter who analyzed some birch wood taken from the remains of a Dan ish house. His findings? The Danes wore building houses almost 10,000 years ago! Looks like building a house has been a favorite activity of man kind for a long time. FHA Volume Off In the first six months of 1951, FHA insured home loans amounted to 13 per cent of all recorded mortgages. This is the lowest percentage of FHA loans in any half-year period since 1947 Weatherstrips Can Save Fuel Bedroom Heat Losses Examined Looking for a chance to sa money on fuel this winter? Then consider the advisibility ( of weathcrstripping the bedroom; doors. If you like to sleep with, your bedroom windows open at ' night, and if the bedroom doori does not fit tight, a lot of your: fuel dollars may be escaping at' this point. That's what the Engineering Experiment Station of the Uni-. versity of Illinois has concluded after a study of the effects on fuel consumption of open bed room windows at night. If you insist on sleeping with your bedroom windows open, you : will not save any money by turn-! ins off the radiators in your bed-! room at night, the university's re search experts found. Consider able fuel will be used to warm the room in the morning. The tests were made with a forced circulation hot water heal ing system. The university found that room air temperature varia tions are affected by the length of the operating cycle of the burner and circulator. To get maximum uniformity in air temperatures, short and fre quent cycles of operation are pre ferable to longer, less frequent cycles.

Million New Homes Needed The United States will need another million new homes next year if a housing shortage is to be averted, a leading building official said this week. Frank W. Cortright, executive vice-president of the National As- socation of Home Builders, re ported that the home building in dustry is capable of keeping up its present production pace, pro vided it can secure the necessary building materials and adequate mortgage funds are obtainable for home buyers. Cortright pointed out that the housing market is far from satu rated. He said demand is strong and will grow steadily over a long period of time.
