Telephone Location
Important to Family
Convenience and degree of
puvacy a family needs usually
deteimine the location of the
telephone in the home However,
different locations may be se
lected in different types of dwell
ing units, says Mis. Cecile P.
Sinden, extension housing spe
cialist of The Pennsylvania State
Umveisity.
In an apartment, the telephone
line probably is alieady install
ed so it’s difficult to change the
position of the instillment In a
small one-stoiy house, there’ll be
a little moie choice
K a family needs only one
telephone, it’s a good idea to put
it in a central place so all mem
bois can leach it fiom all parts
of the house, including kitchen,
living 100 m, and bedrooms.
Ideally, the telephone is best
placed where privacy is avail
able, Mis. Smden points out Ira
a small house, this may be ob
tained by putting the telephone
in a hallway if there is enough
100 m.
In a large one-floor house or
a house with moie than one
floor the family may wish to add
an extra instrument or plugin
outlets This will save steps if
the telephone is convenient to
work and recreation areas and
to the second floor and bed
100ms However the telephone
should be centrally located ora
each floor, reminds Mrs Smden.
Some families may wish to have
one telephone that is complete
ly private. It may be put in the
den or guest room.
For a table telephone, a sturdy
table with space large enough
foi a note pad and the directory
is a must. When placed near the
outlet, a long line is avoided and
no one can trip over it If space
is not available and conveniens
for a table, a wall-hung tele
phone would be a wise choice,
Mrs Sinden adds
FARM REPORT
By Max Smith
Silo filling time is approaching
for many local livestock produc
ers and we must recognize the
great contribution this method
nf feed storage is making to our
livestock industry. On the other
hand, a word of caution regard
ing the filling and managing of
the silo is timely because of the
hazards involved. At filling time
the danger of poisonous gas
should be recognized and all
members of the family instruct
ed of the details. With larger
silos and the greater use of com
mercial fertilizers, the presence
of these gases in larger amounts
is more common Growers are
urged to secure Special Circular
#BO titled, “Silage and Silos”
from their local Extension Of
