country than all other diseases put together, and

itectural conception is that of build
ing which has grown up In garden as
pretty as any flower in 1t and the farm
home that Is not made in garden
fails to measure up to its opportunities
always.
Economically the bungalow costs no
less to build than the boXlike house
but it saves steps. In the first place
there is but one parlor or living room
and that is a very large one. Any farm
home that has more simply wastes that
much house and energy. One dining
room and one large kitchen are suf-
ficient. The rest of the house should be
given over to bed rooms and the more
on the one floor the easier for one wo-
man to look after.
In any farm home the open fire place
should always be made one of the fam
ily and this is always the central feat
mum basement for storage Of Nege-
tables. fuel and for other farm pur-
poses is desirable. This the bungalow
style affords and beauty of design or
convenience in arrangement Is not
sacrificed to obtain It,
No farm home is complete until 1t
contains every comfort known to the
most modem city dwelling, First of all
is a bath room with waterworks sup
piled from storage tanks. Windmill
or engine and cistern. They are easily
available and are necessaries. Secondly
comes the heating plant No modern
house in town lacks either a hot air
furnace, hot water or steam heating
plant and none on the farm can ever
be modern without one or the other
form of heating Cold floors. drafts,
cold rooms, hot rooms smoke and
ashes in house from the old fash
toned stove are relics of the past. The
central heating plant should heat every
room and every corner in every room
TO an even temperature and should
keep the home ventilated with fresh,
health giving atmosphere and should
supply hot water to the bath rooms.
Following modern plumbing and heat
ing, comes farm made lights and fuel
gas. then the hard wood floors. oak
finish and careful decoration which go
to make up modern house in town
even more appropriate for the coun-
try home.
At this time of year when the re-
suits of a seasons toll and investment
are known, when the question of new
house on the farm is up for debate, let
fundamentals of modern architecture
be recognized and let size give way
10 compactness in order that beauty
of design and the comforts of modern
equipment may be provided Nothing
has been herein suggested that is not
possible within an expenditure of from
SO 900 to $4,000. Let an architect be
employed and let the charming bung-
allow home with its garden setting come
to the Iowa farm. Let there be such a
picture painted upon the childhood I'M
pressions Of rising generations that no
mower on earth can drag them away
from the farm.

much for the stock exhibit and you
simply couldn't see much of the races
because a big farmer and a fat woman
stood between you and the track. Why
is il that a fat woman or a big man

was the glorious knowledge that you

A NEW HOUSE ON The FARM.

The building Of a suitable home on
the farm has become in this day and
age as much of problem as it has
long been with the town resident The
time in Iowa agriculture has passed
when any four walls will do if they
have roof over them. The new house
with modern conveniences is coming
along with higher price levels and age.
OF what then shall it be?
AS the man of experienced architect
ural eye journeys thru the country
and notes the rise of the farmers man.
sion he wonders why size and huge
ness seems to have impressed so many
successful men when they all lament
the help problem on the farm. Seldom
does a farmer start to build fine new
house that he does not erect huge
building and it is practically certain
/. for it as she would like to do. Besides
its size is entirely unnecessary.
The modern craze among the city
classes who have the means with
which to indulge their tastes is for the
bungalow Nowhere would this style ap-
pear SO thoroughly in it's proper place
as on the farm. The combination of
story and a half bungalow would be
even better. The bungalow requires
plenty of grounds and shrubs and
grounds are cheap on a farm. It's arch

THE DANGEROUS NEuRos1one.

There is neither end nor limit to
"cures"-on paper. Brown-Sequard
pinned his faith to the goat as the
vehicle of eternal youth and hundreds
of savants and scientists have held
the elusive essences Of immortality
Ponce de Leon died at the end of his
search for Bethsedaen pool where
he might wash away the years and
wrinkles and renew the strength of his
youth. The latest is Sir James Grants

Sir James has used it to such good
effect that he has renewed his failing
eye sight and has the vision of an
eagle. He is active with the agility OF

while you wait" by the neurostone: 1t
turns back the clock and continues the
session.
The account of the meeting where
of the new machine were explained
and expatiated upon does not go into
minute, details. It does not tell how
many treatments are necessary to start
an octogenarian seeking young
wife or give an old man eli uncon-
trollable desire for cuffs on his trous-
ers, fancy neckwear and hatbands and
the conviction that every one past 10
years of age is llelplessly ignorant and
out of date. 1t doesn't specify at just
what stage in the course grandma be-
gins to make go goo eyes and glggle
behind her hand on the street cars.
These things are something that one
should know about before rushing
madly from a second into a third child
hood by use of the neurostone.
Suppose Uncle George Perkins
should take treatment, fly back three
of four years in twenty minutes and
start boosting Culnmins and knocking
fossilization? Imagine Mr.. Bryan TAX
ing treatment before dinner and
electrifying his audience with real
free silver harangue in this day when
accumulated property at Lincoln and
common caution combine to muffle
the silver clarion of his tongue. Fancy
LATE Young barking back a decade and
writing political biography of Ed
Hunter and Joe Blythe. Say, this Is
growing serious. The neurostone is as
dangerous as the unloaded gun. Don't
point it at Iowa.
The neurostone is only another niche
cut in the wall of a foreknowledge of
higher, the inches are all on level
thru all the centuries of astrologers,
chemists, savants and scientists. The
dream of the world has been a specific
against natural decay and all the
dreamers have followed each other down
the dusty pathway to the common
goal Neurostone, aqua vitae, life elk
IRIS, are part of the universal protest
against death. Still the reaper with the
scythA-and hour glass does a full days
work every day. But so long as straw
floats before their eyes, drowning men
will grasp at it and float 9. little longer
for the effort The old order changes
and the old generation fades and God
reveals himself in many ways And
death is one of these revelations per-
haps the best of ALL
But it would be interesting to try
the neurostone on Uncle George, and
say Bill Parrott, of Waterloo.
