Twenty-four by thirty-nine and one
half feet is foundation enough for
good-sized house. By following this
plan a house like this may be built un-
der favorable circumstances for about
81, 500 or $1,000. There is no expensive
finish about the house, but everything
is plain and neat. A hollow brick wall
is intended for the cellar and the cellar
is 70 have a brick floor, properly
drained, and the drains connected with
cesspool constructed in a scientific
manner
There are three good-sized bedrooms
on the second floor, and a splendid at
tic room over the kitchen for storage,
and an attic for ventilation over the
whole house. The arrangement of the
rooms is somewhat different from the
, ordinary house plan, but it is a good
arrangement where there are a number
of children in the family, or in some
cases where hired help is boarded in
| the house.
A distinguishing feature is the large
kitchen. There is ample room for
COOhluS lOI large ldIIllly anu tue CelldI
and pantry accommodations are in
keeping with the kitchen. The kitchen
in this plan is 13Rx16 feet, with corner
windows and an outside door in one
corner.
New houses without the furniture
and belonings of the family are deep
tive. A family can manage perhaps
with a parlor and living room without
any business arrangement about the
house at all, but it would be a hard to
mouth existence. 1t would be after
the tenement district plan in some of
our large cities, where they send the
children to the corner store every 10
minutes for five cents worth of pota-
toes, a piece of beefsteak the size of
your hand, and an onion. They have
not sufficient storage to keep a dozen
eggs in stock.
The most comfortable homes I have
ever seen have storage in the cellar

for apples and potatoes, carrots, pars-
nips, beets, onions and very often with
fresh earth in which to store away
punches of fresh dug celery in the fail
for use during the winter. Such houses
in the fall have a supply of hundred
glass jars filled with fruit that has
been bought at the lowest summer
prices and carefully preserved for use
during the year. There is dry store
room somewhere for jellies, MARINA
ladies' and rich preserves. and the PAN
try is big enough to hold barrel of

ODD COIN IN SLOT MACHINE
Wartime Pocket-Piece Finds It's
Way Into Cigar Store Re-
ceptacle.

A strange piece of coin was found In
a slot machine in an lola cigar store the
other day, reports the Kansas City
Journal. 1t is small metallic plate
about the size of nickel, but of copper.
On one side is a likeness of the Amer
lean flag, with the words, THE Flag of
Our Union" On the other side are the
words, "If anyone attempts to tear 1t
down, shoot him on the spot" The CEN
ter of this side contains the word.
DIX" The date 1863 appears on the
coin. The banks knew nothing of 1t.
During the civil war, when Gen. Ben
Butler was holding New Orleans in line,
an American flag was floating from the
city hall. There was frantic talk Of
tearing 1t down, and Maj. Gen. Dix is
sued the order printed on the coin, eff
anyone attempts to pull it down, shoot
him on the spot" Butler was the man
to execute such an order. and Old Glory

city unmolested. How the pocket piece

REAL VALUE OF SPRAYING.
In Fighting Disease and Insects One
Should Not Depend Too
Much on Tt.

So rapid has been the advancement
of spraying as a means of CONTROL
ing insects and diseases, that there
is a tendency to greatly oyerestimate
its value. 1t was only &c years ago
that Paris green was first used for
the cooling moth of apples. Not I'M
til about 1885 was the Bordeaux mix
ture used to any extent When we
remember that practically all of our
modern spraying-its tools, mixtures
and methods, has been developed or
made of practical utility within the
past Is or 20 years, until 1t has come
to be an almost universal practice
among the most successful fruit
growers, we can readily understand
why greater Importance. is some
times ascribed to 1t than 1t really
merits. Spraying is new idea, says
Farming, and like most new ideas, 1t
has been accomplished. There are
some old and few new ways of solv-
ing the insect and disease problems.
Sometimes these other ways may be
better even than spraying, sometimes
they may supplement it very advan-
tageously. We should not forget
them in our enthusiasm over a new
and valuable remedy.
