To The Bryan Eagle:
The question has been asked how
long the log piers and "dead men
suKKested by me to be used in coil'
nection with anchoring housea in the
overllow districts would last.
In reply will state that hard wood
logs of the dimensions suggested in
the plans should hist as long as the
houBe. It is a well known fact that
a log submerged in water or buried in
the soil to a depth sufficient to ex
elude the air will remain intact for
many years. Decay would begin right
at the surface of the ground where It
could easily be observed. W hen a
pier becomes weak it may be removed
and a new one put in by loosening the
nuts.
I should have suggested in connec-
tion with the plans that it would be
a good precaution to paint the piers
and "dead men" with a good timber
preservative before placing them in
position. This is done by the rail-
road and telegraph companies in set-
ting posts and poles and Is consid-
ered by them a good- investment
This of course will add a few cents
to the cost of each pier but who cares
so long as he is convinced that it is
an Investment that pays 'well? Be-
fore painting the bark should be re-
moved. Plantation owners are urged to
anchor their houses not only as a pro-
tection to the houses but also to the
lives of the people on the farms. The
purpose of elevating the houses is two-
fold: First to keep them above the
water and second to Improve health
conditions.
If we are to Judge by the many re-
quests which are now coming to us
for these plans there will soon be
thousands of houses In the Texas
river valleys anchored according to
the suggestions we have made. Calls
have been received from several plant
ers in the lower Frnzos valley and
from the Snn Antonio Trinity and
Colorado valleys and tributaries of
the Navnsota and other streams.
Blue prints of the suggested plans
may be had upon application to me
at College Station. We shall he clad
to send them to anyone contemplating
Dullding houses where high water may
oe encountered.
Yours very truly
B. YOUNGBLOOD. Director.

From zero to seventy degrees Fah
renheit is a big jump but it is an easy
stunt for this remarkable heater.
Five minutes in time is all that is
needed.
Think of what that means to you on
a cold morning of the time
you save. No building of a
new fire. You put in a fresh
stick and away she goes.
That isn't all. You get a
steady controllable heat hour
after hour.
Think what this means
to your family in illness
prevented and doctor's
bills avoided.
Think of what it means
in comfort quickly and
cheaply furnished.
Then come in while
it is still in your mind.
An inspection will de-
cide the matter.
