This publication reports in detail the methodology and findings of a study made to establish basic dimensions of commonly used kinds and sizes of household textiles as they are stored and to determine the measurements of storage facilities needed for the kinds and quantities of household textiles owned by specified portions of farm families in all regions of the country. The project was a unit of a coordinated program of research in farm housing conducted by the Agricultural Research Service and State agricultural experiment stations. It made use of information obtained from four regional surveys of farm family housing needs and preferences, which constituted the initial aspect of that program.
