Providing the convenience of a
bungalow on the ground floor and
two additional bedrooms upstairs,
this roomy 11 -storey design by
architect Earl R. Dunlop, of
Toronto; will appeal to the larger
family. • •
The living room, with its fire-
place and large window overlook-
ing the street, has doors rather
than an archway making it pos-
sible to elese the room off from
the rest•of the house. This increas-
es privacy which is an important
consideration in small houses. Of
particular interest to the housewife
is the kitchen with its convenient
U-shaped working area andspace
for a dining table. -The-bedroom on
the ground floor and its adjoining
washroom is another noteworthy
feature.
The total floor area is 1,315
square feet and the exterior dimen-
cions are 33 feet, eight inches, by
24 feet, eight inches. Working
drawings for the house, Design 320,
may be obtained from Central
Mortgage and Housing Corporation.

FRAMED AND READY FOR. ROOF --Roof framing should be solid enough to withstand
the heaviest snow load without danger of collapse. Quality workmanship in framing the roof is
essential to iliapp
cod a -'
g -appearance of a house.
ADVENTURE IN BUILDING
Ceiling and Roof Assembly
Helps Brace Exterior Walls
This is the nineteenth in a
series of articles • hy Central
Mortgage and Housing Cor-
poration, Federal housing ag-
ency; on building a house.
The roof of a conventional house,
whether supported by masonry or
frame walls, is built in the same
general fashion. The framing mem-
bers of the ceiling. and roof as-
sembly are the ceiling joists and
rafters. Ceiling joists are the hor-
izontal members; rafters give the
roof its slope. Where the roof is
flat, or has only a gentle slope,
rafters and joists may be combin-
ed, with one member serving both
functions. In this case they are
called roof joists.
Ceiling joists generally do not
have to be as heavy as floor joists,
as they normally carry less weight.
The main purpose, besides support-
ing the Ceiling, is to provide lateral
bracing for the walls.
Ceiling joists are sometimes de-
signed to carry part of the roof
load. Under these conditions the
lumber selected for the joists has
to be wider than would otherwise
be necessary. However, if the roof
space is used as an attic storage
space, the ceiling joists must be
designed as floor joists. and cross
briding or other bracing. should be
provided.
The ends of ceiling 'joists rest
on the top plate of the walls and
bearing partitions. In stud frame
construction the topplate is part
of the wall assembly itself. In
solid masonry construction, the top
plate is attached to the top of the
wa111 either by nailing ft to the
furring strips, or by anchoring it

crete) as isdone with the sill.
Sometimes, the interior ends of
the ceiling joistk are stispended by
resting of

gpI teas bis al
often the • ease when the central
partition is . not continued across:
the house to the opposite wail. The
plate is then replaced by a beam,
and the ceiling joists are attached
to it,
Where there is a roof space, a
hatch or opening in the ceiling.has
to be provided. The hatch should
be wide enough to allow' ample
room for a person to get through
comfortably.
Roof Rafters
In the gable roof, Which has two
opposite slopes, the top ends of the
rafters lean against the ridge board
where the slopes meet. A hip roof
has four slopes, converging to a
peak like a pyramid if the house
is square, or capped by a ridge
board if the house is broader than
it is deep. The framework consists
of four hip rafters to which the
shorter rafters, or "jack rafters" as
they are called, are nailed.
At their lower end, rafters usual-
ly rest on the top plates which cap
the interior walls. If the roof pro-
jects beyond the walls the rafters
may be notched over the top plate.
But rafters may also rest on the
joists them,selves when the rafters
and the ceiling joists have the same
spacing. A gusset, or tie, between
the rafter end and the joist is re-
commended in such cases.
A table of allowable spans for
rafters that can safely be used
with lumber of a given dimension
is provided in the book, "Housing
Standards", which may be obtain-
ed free froth any Central Mortgage
and Housing Corporation office.
The allowable span, incidently,
does not refer to the length of
the rafters, but to the horizontal
distance between the rafter sup-
ports. G
A dwarf wall may also be used
to give additional support to the
rafter. This method is often em-
ployed when the rafters are too
long to be made from •a single
pleee of lumber. When a dwarf
wall is used,' part of the roof load
is transmitted to ceiling joists.
Dwarf walls .should have a plate
at the top and bottom.
Collar ties can also be used as
rafter supports. They consist of
members nailed across two op-
posite raters, providing rigidity
and strength to the roof structure,
since they act as a truss. A pro-
perly trussed roof can carry a big-
ger snow load and offers more re-
sistance to wind pressure than a
roof with rafters of the same size
which are not trussed. Designs for
standard trusses, prepared jointly
by the Division of Building Re-
search, NRC, The Forest Products
Laboratories of Canada and Cen-
tral Mortgage and Housing Cor-
poration, are available for the ask-
ing at CMHC offices.

HURON COUNTY FEDERATION NEWS
By CARL HEMINGWAY
cwt., an increase of 40c, and lambs
$19.35, down 20e.
As opposed to Bill 86 in the prov-
ince we find the Federal Govern-
ment has introduced a new bill (C
58) controlling combines. Under the
new Bill, companies that would be
prosecuted under present legisla-
tion because they control prices,
may be exempt under the new Bill
if the group of companies show
they do not operate against public
interest. If Ontario packers ot
together and reduced the price for
hogs to $2.00, but also reduced the
price of pork • one dollar, would
they be working against the public
interest?
On the whole, the new Bill opens
the way for some lessening of com-
petition and for somewhat greater
difficulty in prosecuting collusion
and combining in trade:
Storage of canned pork is about
half the peak of 115 million pounds.
Pork cuts have moved slowly but
sales are expected to increase.
With the equalization levy to the
Stabilization Board down to $1,19
this week, and the exchange prem-
ium on Canadian dollars down, and
with U.S. hog prices. up, exports
will be better. ,
At this time of year many farm-
ers try to adapt their program in
the direction that looks best, so
you may find some of the informa-
tion that comes to my desk help-
ful.
• From the Wheat Growers' bulle-
tin I find that prospects for the
present crop are not as good as
was previously expected. Flooding
has caused serious damage ,and it
is felt that the Board will not lie
forced to purchase for export. How-
ever, the latest report states that
Alberta has more than average
supplies of moisture and this could
affect Ontario prices.
From the Ottawa report we find
that, as a result of the U.S. sur-
plus disposal program sales of Can-
adian wheat to India will be cut
by 8.3 million bushels, and in gifts
by 7 million bushels. India's repre-
sentative stated that India could
use more Canadian wheat if loan
or barter could be arranged, e
From the same report we find
that farm income in Canada was
down in -'59 from '58 but it is sig-
nificant to find that in Saskatche-
wan and Alberta, where income
was down the most, the farm pro-
duction showed the greatest in-
crease. This seems to be typical
of agriculture in Canada—produce
more to get less.
In asking for'equal duty on im-
ports df broilers from the U.S. as
on Canadian exports to the U.S.,
Agricultural Minister Harkness
stated that the question would be
discussed at the. International Con-
ference on tariffs and trade at
Geneva in August. Seems strange
that this must go to Geneva when
Canada was able to restrict Japan-
ese imports of textiles and U.S.
was able to cut off Canadian ex-
ports of poultry by refusing to ac-
cept our health inspection stand-
ards without going to Geneva.
As of the lst of April the sup-
port price on cattle is $18.20 per

SEAFORTH : ONTARIO
(By C. A. DEAN, M.D.)
MEDITORIAL: Anxiety and ten-
sions are an essential part of our
life. Our emotions respond to ev-
ery .happening in a different way.
When emergencies occur, tense-
ness can be helpful. As the adrena-
lin pours out into our system, the
heart beats faster, muscles tighten
up and we are ready for the occa-
sion.
The ability to become tense is a
means of protecting oneself from
the hazards around us. Since there
are many threats toto our well-be-
ing, we will have o endure many
tensions.
Tensing only when there is ade-
quate reason and to control our
emotions before they jump out of
hand is not easy to do. In fact
there are few of us who can con-
trol our emotions to this extent.
Most persons go through many
emotional upsets in their lives and
have the capacity to bounce back
after each one. Several factors in=
fluence our ability to recover: past
influences (usually childhood ex-
periences), an extreme situation
(several tragic deaths in the fam-
ily, etc.) and extreme fatigue.
Since occasional bouts of anxiety
and tension are normal' they need
not be cause for additional con-
cern. When these bouts become
frequent'and prolonged and the
ability to recover is slowed, it is
time to become watchful.
, (Q): "Can a person with a
small spot on the lung have
tuberculosis if all tests are neg-
ative?" A. C.
(A): Yes. However, if the tests
are repeated after awhile and they
are still •negative, then it is safe
to say tuberculosis is not present.
