The farm mortgage situation is
one o f
the serious
ecnomic pro
blems confronting th,, country. Due
to the sharp drop in farm income,
this problem is perplexing a great
many farm owners and mortgage
holders in Oregon.
Based on preliminary doty», the
Orogon cash farm index is given
at 43re o f the 1926-1930 average
This compares with around 55 for
1931. 84 fo r 1930. and 105» fo r 1929.
Most o f the decline in incom,, is
due to low prices, as gross
pro
duction has been fairly well main
tained.
The report points out that
the
payment o f fixed charges fo r in
terest on indebtedness out o f farm
income is now
quite a different
matter than it was threP or four
years ago when income was much
greater.

DIRT IN HEATING
PLANT BIG CAUSE
OF FUELWASTE
Giant £ action Cleaner Take*
22 Bushel* of Soot From
Single Sy*tem.
Many a housewife, ruefully looking
at the smoked walls and smudged
drapes in her home during the cold
months, makes up her mind never to
go through another winter of house
cleaning drudgery, occasioned by a
soot-clogged furnace. Investment of
the price of one ton o f coal, or
less. In a thorough cleaning of the
heating plant before the heating sea
son starts will save the price of sev-
eral tons of fuel during the winter,
the Holland Institute of Thermology
o f Holland, Mich., ao rises. And If
will save the housewife the worry,
drudgery and extra cleaning expense
that are caused by a dirt| heating
plant.
In support of this statemeut the In-
sUtute's heating engineers cite tests
recently completed by the United
States Bureau of Standards which
revealed that one-eightb o f an Inch
of soot In the heating clumber ana
other parts of the centra! heating
plant reduces the net efficiency of the
system 28 per cent, and a quarter
Inch coating of soot. 48 per cent
The removal of these snot coatings
means a corresponding increase In
the heating efficiency of the plant,
with resultant fuel savings. Also, a
dirty heating plant means Just so
much more grime to be tracked up
stairs am, extra work for the house
wife In sweeping and cleaning mgs
and other fabrics. The extent of this
house cleaning burden where the heat
ing plant Is not clean Is Indicated by
the fact that as much as 22 bushels
of soot snd dirt have been extracted
from the heating system of a single
home.
In times gone by, cleaning the heat
ing plant was always a messy Job. but
todny It Is a Job that Is done quick
ly, quietly and effectively by a vacu
um cleaner that comes to the house
on an automobile truck, equipped with
a fan driven by » motor, a huge can
vas ung und several sections of flex
Ible piping. The powerful suction of
the fan ss effectively cleans out the
heating plant. Including the chimney,
as the household vacuum cleaner
cleans the nigs.
