Nelsonville area shows growth in lumber building trades in 1934
A Nelsonville survey by PHA workers covering Nelsonville Buchtel and Chauncey finds 1934 gains in lumber and building trades over 1933 with several remodels and new homes. Optimism hinges on a housing repair program under the Federal Housing Act and possible $80000 to $100000 in housing expenditures.

Know Your Mixing To Produce Colors
Mixing primary colors yields most colors and creates neutrals when all three are combined. Secondary colors arise from two primaries, with blue and yellow making green, red and yellow making orange, and red and blue making violet. Lighten with white or darken with black, and add a complement to subdue brightness. Local repairs include Pearl Seaman re shingled, Hall Brothers business room changes, Mac Chevrolet Garage updates, and residences on Oak and St Charles Streets undergoing remodeling with porches and foundations redone.

Lumber Joint Problem Almost Entirely Solved
Modern timber connectors and plywood gussets nearly double or more the strength of joints. Tests show plywood with timber connections yields high load capacities, prompting further engineering data work. Light color painting of oil tanks could save about $20 million yearly by reducing evaporation.
