Rain Poor Substitute for Irrigation

And irrigation is better than rain,
infinitely better. That also sounds
like a paradox. but instead it is almost
truism. What is better-to give a
plant just as much and no more water
than it needs and just when it needs
it; or to parch it or drown it accord
ing to the whim of the clouds? The
rain falls upon the just and upon the
unjust alike; upon your strawberries
that cry for 1t and upon your sugar
beets that want uninterrupted sun
shine Rain is all right in its place.
but it is a very poor substitute for ir
rigation. Otherwise why would the
lawns of our cities be sprinkled or irri-
gated, instead of leaving them to the
tender mercy of the clouds? No. Arid
lands are more fertile than ordinary
lands, and irrigation is better than

vases with these tools there should be
no difficulty in dating the latter and
thereby getting standard forms.

relate to the community and the home
town, it is Iatent to the man of intelli-

Of the community. The patriotic man
who would be a model citizen will
make it his rule to put forth every
effort to build up the local community
This effort should be directed to the
patronizing of every home industry;
to keep within the community as far
as possible all the earnings OF the peo-
pie; to invest surplus capital in home
enterprises; to improve the schools,
the churches, the roads, develop every
resource of the place; and with in

within Is years build up business
amounting to more than 100000, 900
annually This is the record of the
managers of the worlds greatest mail
order house. There is no secret about
this great success. 1t is simply mat
ter of judicious advertising. The mil
order house is an example of persist
ency, of careful, shrewd and highly
attractive advertising. The mail order
field is the world. The field of the
local merchant is comprised within APP
proximately hundred square niles.
The mail order houses attract trade
from the local merchants hundred
square miles wherever the local mer-
chants are found lacking as wide
awake advertisers But in the dis.
.tricts where there are live storekeep-
ers, who realize the value of printers

large rooms and high ceilings CT 20
or 80 years ago and the little narrow,
contracted, close communion affairs
that are being built now in order to
save expense because of the high
price of all building materials.
The size on the ground is 26&
feet in width by 441h feet long, which
is six or eight feet longer than most
new city houses that are built on this
general PLAN
There are fashions in houses, the
same as in other things. Some of
IAC Olu IdoIiUlIS are oil FISAl, puL
some are nothing but silly fads One
of these late fashions is the dining
room extension which is built some
thing after the fashion of a bay win
dow, but it is very much wider and it
has square corners. Sometimes these
extensions have windows in the ends,
but in such cases have the appear
ance Of being overdone. Such an
addition to dining-room is intended
to let in an abundance of light as
well as to add to the appearance of
the room, and is one of the most COM
mendable new building features. 1t
never fails to add an air of elegance
and refinement when the proportions
are right and the work properly done
In some of these extensions tbs
windows are placed high up, but there
is an advantage in the deep window,
especially if you want to use the space
