1t is a certainty that Business and
Western will line up in basket ball
scrimmage again this winter. The Stenog-
raphers have had something on the boys
across the creek for the last two years
and it will be their aim to make Business
go some in order to take their scalp.
Western has some promising material out
for the five, but Business has the ad-
vantage on all the high schools by getting
in great deal of preparatory practice.

THE WEALTH OF DELTA COUNTY.

The following abstract of the assessment OF Delta
county for the year of 1908 contains a wholesome
story, touching the prosperity and increasing pro-
gress of the county. The total assessments
by the table is So 093 S25, which is $780,
600 more than the year previous. and is the largest
in the history of the county. The value of orchard
and farming lands has increased very rapidly the
past few years. and Is increasing rapidly with
each added year by the growth of the orchards.

assessor is the annual form required by law. and

When the walls OF the first and second

always be an open space on the inside

Something About Cement Construction

There are two things in which home
builders are interested in today more than
anything else. One of them is the design
ing of bungalows and the other is the
different ways in which a home can be
constructed of cement.
The difference in cost between a frame
home and cement constructed home has
not come to the point where 1t is advisa-
bic to build a home entirely Of cement,
although there is no doubt but what that
will be the eventual solution of the prob
lem. While lumber dealers have been
placing their prices really higher than has
been necessary, they are not entirely I'm
warranted. for our lumber supply is GER
tainly growing less every year. Brick is
always a favorlte form of construction
and probably will always remain so. but
the labor of laying each brick separately
is considerable. The price, therefore, for
masonry walls is in favor of concrete and
there is not the slightest doubt about the
equivalent in strength, in fact, a concrete
wall properly made is the strongest wall
that can be used. You will note stated
properly made" for here, unfortunately,
is the one great drawback to ement and
concrete construction. There is such an
open opportunity which is too often taken
advantage or for a builder to put in con-
crete work in anything but the proper
manner. In a brick wall, however, the
owner can pick up the bricks and examine
them, passing his judgment on them just
as well as an experienced builder or archi-
tect. Unless he is a practical builder,
however, he cannot tell what is going
into the concrete wall. Even If the proper
proportions are being used in the mixture
Of its aggregates, he is no judge of the
quality of cement used. The cheapest, best
and most practical foundation wall is a
solid concrete wall varying from twelve
to eighteen inches in thickness, according
to the size Of the building. The concrete
should be of proper proportions. as sneci-
fled by the architect, well tamped to the
forms, using as much water in the mixing
as possible. 1t is the water which brings
about the chemical action of the cement,
and the more of ii that is used up to a
reasonable quantity. the more thoroughly
