rather than to conform with the old

has become very popular the last few
years to move the large elaborate
porch. that used to grace the front
Of the house, around to the side or
even to the rear. This Is In accord

porch is good thing to really use,
not simply pretentious ornament for
the street front.
The large porch today-is very apt
to be screened In In the summer time
and surrounded with glazed sash In
the winter and made comfortable for
real use as a living room or a dining

For these purposes It is Obvious
that the location at the street front
would very seldom be satisfactory, ex-

large grounds where the house can be

The proper maintenance OF farm

which the work Is performed. The
equipment Of the average farm can
be divided into about three more or
less distinct classes. as follows: First,
and most important, are the build.
ings. fences. implements. machinery,
wagons. and all appliances used In
the more important farming opera

used In connection with the dairy,

BIG RAILROAD TIE-UP
Is Imminent on the Border-Actior
Likely Against Mexican National.

Ell Paso, Texas, Jan. 3.-The Tor
reon (Mexico) Enterprise today says:
Trouble between the National Rail
ways of Mexico and their American
employees, which is expected to culmi
nate on January Is, may result in a
complete tie-up of traffic at the Amer
lean border.
The Mexican railways may sever re
lations with American railroad men
on that date Because of liability to
arrest and prosecution by the Mexican
courts, the men will not declare a
strike, but there is no law that pre-
vents man resigning who is not
under contract.
American unions in the United
States, it is said will declare the Mex,
lean railways to be unfair" and tie
them up by not allowing engineers
firemen, conductors or brakemen on
American roads terminating at FL
Paso, Eagle Pass and Laredo to
handle any shipments delivered by
the Mexican railways.
