Magazine Editors Find
Magic Under the Rafters
"Many older homes waste thousands of cubic feet of space in tho
attic while rooms on lower floors are straining at the seams . . . That
unused space can easily be transformed into one or more very
useful rooms—largely by yourself, too.”
So said HOME MODERNIZING magazine’s editors in their first
edition. Now, they feel they have proved the point—with an attic
modernizing project that created two bedrooms, a playroom, and a
compartmented bathroom in a mere 25x23 feet of floor space.
The roof was literally raised on one side, permitting inclusion of a
dramatitf window wall an the boy’s bedroom.
Wooden folding doors increase efficiency, close off the tiny bed
rooms when they are in use. With doors open, bedrooms are m effect
'part of the play space for the boy and girl sharing the attic. Folding
doors also divide three bathroom, compartments.
Plywood built-ms make the best possible use of space. Most
notable is the built-m bunk arrangement used to divide the bedrooms.
' The lower bunk is on the girl’s side, with a bulletin board above.
On the other side of the bulletin board is the boy’s bunk. An electric
tram table pulls out from underneath the girl’s bunk into the boy’s
room. A movable storage unit at the end of the bunks is shared.
Under-the-eaves cabinets and closets store clothing, playthmgs and
-other equipment.
Phofo shows general view of
HOME MODERNIZING editors’
attic from far end of playroom.
Wooden folding doors close off
the sleeping cubicles when they
are in use. With doors open,
bedrooms become part of play,
area, Attic walls are finished in
plywood, with panels of differ
ent textures used fpr accent.
Wallpaper is also used for dec
oration. In floor-plan drawing,
note how folding doors are
placed to compartment attic
proper and .multi-use bathroom
to secure privacy.

-8 Million Acres
Signed for Soil
Bank Reserves
WASHINGTON (USDA)
More than eight million acres
of cropland had been signed up
by farmers under the 1956 Acre
age Reserve program of the
Soil Bank through July 20, ac
cording to reports for that date
which have been received by
the U. S. Department of Agri
culture from State Agricultural
Stabilization and Conservation
offices.
The amount of cropland listed
for the Acreage Reserve during
the third week - for which reports
have been available almost
doubled thp previous week’s
figure. During the week ended
July 6, slightly under two mil
lion acres had entered the Soil
Bank Acreage Reserve. Last
week’s total, which covered the
period through July 13, was
4,400,000 acres. Deadline for
producers to enter land in the
1956 Acreage Reserve was July
27.
According to the July 20 re
port from the State ASC offices,
368,296 Acreage Reserve agree
ments were signed. If the signa
tory producers comply w/th re
quirements of the program, they
can earn nearly $165 million on
the eight million acres entered
under the program.
