Vqluoble New Hqndbook ReodY

Professional builders, homeowners, prospective buyersin fact, anyone interested in building, remodeling, or maintaining a homewill find valuable help in a new handbook just issued by the U.S. Departrnent of Agriculture, according to Dr. George M. Jemison, clirector of the California Forest and Range Experiment Station of the U.S. Forest Service. The new publication, "Wood-Frame House Construction," listed as Agriculture Handbook No. 73, was prepared by L. C. Anderson and O. C. Heyer, engineers at the Forest Products Laboratory, Madison, Wis., a unit of the Forest Service.

"The handbook combines the results of 45 years of Laboratory research with practical building experience. It's a down-to-earth construction guide that covers every phase of home building from laying the foundation to applying the final coat of paint," Dr. Jemison said.

The handbook was thoroughly reviewed by representatives of the lumber and building industries and by engineers of the federal llousing and Home Finance Agency before it was released.

"It has something for everybody interested in wood houses," Dr. Jemison said. "And the homeowner, especially the do-ityourself fan, will find dozens of ideas that will help him remodel, add a room, or just keep his present home in top condition."

The handbook can be purchased from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington 25, D.C., for 65 cents.
