WILL THE VOTERS LIKE IT?
Must the Children Be Made to Climb
the Hill !?
Ne School Grounds and Costs $roo Per Front
Foot, Besides Cost Of Retaining Walls,
Grading and Sewers

Tho solid majority of the board of edu-
cation on Monday night recommended
only recommended-that the city council
vote $l2, 900 of school funds for two lots
on the west siue of Olive street, near
Fourth. These lots ara wholly inadequate
in area to furnish school grounds, are
near the top of the hill. and will require
expensive grading. retaining walls and
sewer before they can be occupied by the
school BUILDING. Good judges estimate
that the lots are not worth $50 per front
foot, and that somebody has blundered
$4,000 in this single transaction, which
seems to be pretty extravagant and
wasteful application of school money. but
let it be said at least to the credit of two
of the mem bers that they denounced the
proceedings of the board and clearly
showed that this site is wholly unit for
school purposes.
1t is proposed to build large and COM
modious building, and school grounds
should be furnished similar to the Spring
street school site, SO that the children
would havcfample grounds and under no
cifcum stances would be permitted to
gather in the street and to be exposed to
the danger of passing teams.
The Spring street school building has
q double front. making it convenient of
approach in different directions, thus
saving the children consider BILE distance
in going to and from their homes. This
plan gives school grounds. healthful and
pleasant surroundings, and in every way
is desirable.
The Childs property on Pearl street,
near Sixth, and extending through from
Pearl to Fremont avenue, and consisting
of fo2r very desirable lots, having an area
of So, AIS square feet, and in every way
SIS desirable as the Spring street school
grounds, has been offered for Sl2. 900.
This property is considered cheap for
either residence or school purposes. There
would be no blunder in buying this prop
erJy, there would be no extravaganza or
waste of funds; it would be an honor to
the city. it would be pleasure to the
children, 1t would in every way meet the

Model Poultry House.

A poultry establishment costing over 5000
has Just been completed at Uplands, the coun-
try place Of Robert Garrett, says the Balti-
more Sun. The buildings were all constructed
under the direct supervision Of Mrs. Robert
Garrett, who, like many ladies IN this eoun-
try and in England, has become interested IN
poultry culture. The poultry house rs all
under one root, and Is over $50 feet long. Il
has three tnrret towers. one at each end and
one in the centre. One of the towers viii be
used for choice fowls, a pigeon loft being in
the second story. The feed will be kept in
the other end tower. A reception room, well
furnished and equipped with library of poul-
TRY literature. occupies the first story Of the
centre tower. the second story being the he'd
room of the poultry keeper. On the right of
the centre tower are accommodations for
brooding 1000 .'broilers' at one time. Brood
ers' are devices for providing wirmth for
arti6cially Matched chickens. arranged so that
the chickens may run in and out at will. There
are also outside yards in which the chickens
NAV exercise and obtain fresh air. Compart
ments for brooding pens Of thoroughbred poul-
try stock are on the left of the centre tower.
The house is constructed of wood and the
floors are all of cement. A heavy brick orna-
faented structure for the ineubators is IL the
rear of the poultry house. As soon as the
yorng chicks are well dried after emerging
from the eggs they are taken from the incu-
bator. and in lots Of 100are put in the brooder
aoartments. building especially arranged
for fatten;ng, killing and dressing poultry is
connected with the establishment. Ducks
and turkeys have separate house in the rear
Of the main bnildiEg.
