Prospective home buyers are giving increasing attention to this question when they go house shopping this year, according to the National Lumber Manufac turers Association. Actually, the package doesn't have to be impressively large if the wrapping is, well chosen ? If you think in terms of the house Itself as the "package", and its wall construction and exterior finish as the "wrapping." The point made by the NLMA is that many of today's buyers are already planning for later expansion, and so are taking, a realistic interest in the way the average small house of today is NOTICE OF CHANGE OF ZONING ORDINANCE Upon request for a chango of the Zoning Ordinance on High way No. 29 and Wells Street, a public hearing will be had for all parties interested at the reg ular meeting of the Board of Commissioners for the City of Kings Mountain on Thursday night, September 3, 1953 at 8:00 o'clock p. m. to change from a residential district to a business district the following: BEGINNING at the intersec tion of Wells Street with' High way No. 29 and runs thence with Wells Street Bast 150 feet to a stake; thence North and parallel with Highway No. 29 100 feet; thence West and parallel with Wells Street 150 feet to a stake in the edge of Highway No. 29; thence with Highway No. 29, 100 feet to the BEGINNING. All persons, opposed to this change may appear before the Board of Commissioners on the above date and register their op position. This the 7th day of August, 1953. J. R. Hendrlck City Clerk Aug. 13?5-3 More Milk Per Cow Urged By Dairyman "More milk per cow is what really pays off in the dairy busi ness," says I.ee Williams, who operates a small dairy farm near Marble in Western North Caro lina's Cherokee County. Williams firmly Relieves "it takes just as much feed to main tain a 1,000 pound low-producing cow as a liOOO pound high pro ducer." And he's trying to select his foundation s'ock from the high producers. G. H. Farley, county agent for the N. C. State College Agricultu ral Extension Service, says Wil liams' small farm nestles in a warm valley between two tree covered mountains. The previous owner had beer. to make eno'ugh money oh the place to pay the taxes. But with the assistance of the Farmers Home Adminis tration, Williams has transform ed the valley and hillsides into an area of lush, green Ladlno clover and grass. Williams started producing Grade A milk for sale commer cially four years ago. He only had two cows. Now he has a herd of nine high producing purebreds and grades. All along he has em phasized high production in build ing his herd, says County Agent Farley. Two of his co\Vs have been milking around eight gal lons each per day. At present milk prices, Williams figures each of these cows are bringing in more than $100 per month after the haul bill is paid. Williams is continuing his herd improvement work. By taking ad vantage of the proven sires of the artificial breeding program, he figures he will "get the far thest in the shortest time." "If you happen to be around here in the next few years you will really see something." says Williams, pointing to his fine hei fer calves. put together and finished off. A small well-designed home of frame construction, finished with wood siding or shingles, is a good choice for young householders who expect both their income and the size of their family to be lar ger in a few years. Both builders and architects have recognized that a home built of wood may be so planned in the beginning that later additions may be made economically and with attractive effect. Alterations and improvements can be made least expensively if the home is built of_ wood. Walls may be moved more easily, win dows converted into doorways and new windows opened as re quired. Also, with the use of wood parts, there is no problem in mat ching trim, siding, cornices, shut | ters and other details. And part of the work -r- sometimes all of it, in the case of today's "do it yourself" enthusiast ? can be done by the home owner. In any case, the finished addi tion can have a "we planned it that way" appearance instead of the patched-up effect of an ur gent aftei thought. Mount Vernon and other early colonial homes have long been cited for the pleas ing results possible when a house | built of wood grows along with family requirements and ambi tions. j If the lot is ot good size and I the neighborhood pleasing, the home owner can find much sat isfaction in "adding on" with the result of creating a home of char acter and individual expression. Meantime, while the family bud get requires great economy and while the family is small, there !is the advantage of paying less for heating and other maintena nce and for interest on the mort gage on a small house.

Research Center Makes New Fibers From Cotton, Designated T-7 Series CHARLOTTESVILLE. Va. Successful development of a new family of fibers from cotton, con. sidered potentially significant to the textile industry and Ameri ca's cotton economy, was announ ced today by L. H. Hance, presi dent of the Institute of Textile Technology, the textile industry's center for cooperative research and education. The new fiber series, designat ed as T-7, Is produced by reaction of ordinary cotton fiber, yarn or fabric with a chemical during a basic process called cyanoethyla tion. By this process, cotton is transformed into a structurally different type of fiber. The resultant fiber family, T-7. retains the appearance, "feel" and other familiar characteristics of cotton but takes on important added properties: 1) It has permanent resistance to micro-organism attack such as mildew and bacteria. 2) After exposure to wet and dry heat, it retains strength to a greater degree. 3) It is more receptive to all classes of dyes, including J^cid dy?s which normally are unsatis factory on cotton. Dr. Jack Compton, technical di rector of the Institute of Textile Technology, who initiated and supervised the development of the T-7 series over the past three and one-half years, stated that one of the most prominent fea tures is that T-7 products are "very versatile." As a base ma terial, they can be easily altered by subsequent treatments into products having even more de sirable qualities. "For the first time," Dr. Comp ton observed, "textile manufact urers can engineer their own fib. ers from cotton ? using their own equipment ? to meet the demands of the end product. They can thus build into a textile pro duct many of the specific proper ties their customers desire." Feasibility of the process has been demonstrate* by commer cial scale runs^ in conventional yarn-treating equipment at Stan dard - Coosa - Thatcher Company. Chattanooga, Tenn., according to Aubrey A. Hobbs, vice-president of that ITT member mill. Plans are nearing competion for larger volume production in pilot plant facilities of certain other member mills. Further treatments of the T7 products. Dr. Compton said, hav't produced in certain instances fib ers and yarns which are consider ably stronger and possess increas ed stretch and greater abrasion ? resistance than either the original cotton or T-7 products. The basic chemical used in pro ducing T-7 was identified as aery lonitrile. This is produced in large volume by American Cyanamid Company, Monsanto Chemical Company and Carbide and Car bon Chemicals Company. It is an important constituent of many synthetic rubbers and the acrylic textile fibers such as Orion, Dy nel, Acrilan and X-51. The interest of the acrylonitrile manufacturers is shown by the student fellowship given to the Institute by American Cyanamid, in effect for the past two years and renewecKfor two additional years. Monsanto has recently es tablished a similar student fel lowship. ITT staff members imported their findings have aroused keen interest among textile mills and the chemical industry. They listed the following significant aspects of the development: The ITT process is the first to achieve chemical modification of cotton in conventional yarn pack age treating equipment. With this equipment, both yarn and fiber can be processed. The process is described as "relatively simple. ' By cyanoethyiation. cotton manufacturers are given new fib ers that can be handled on the same machinery used for spin ning, a^d. weaving cotton, with whirh they are familiar, while gaining many product qualities attainable to date only with syn thetics. Since cotton is the basic mater ial, the T-7 products pose no new competitive threat for the cotton ? farmer and, instead, would even ! tually expand his market. This marks the first time that j the textile industry, through its own cooperative research facili ties, has created a new fiber. Tex tile manufacturers own and fi-' nance the Institute of Textile Technology. Rites Conducted For J. L.
