Rembrandt's Home.

Within a short time Amsterdam will
possess a new attraction to lovers OF
art. The house where Rembrandt lived
from 1859 to 1868 and where he passed
the most happy years of his married
life with Sasha van Uilenburg, is be-
ing restored and arranged as a small
Rembrandt museum. The historical
building long much neglected, became
the property some time ago of So
ciety. and Is now being restored under
the direction OF famous architect.
One would have gladly seen the house
restored as II was when Rembrandt
inhabited 1t. but that could not be, as
1t was quite impossible to obtain again
all the works OF art which It once con
tanned. and thus II is now arranged as
a small museum. where chiefly etch'
ings and drawings, about seventy in
all, by the great painter will be on
view London Globe.

THE ROOSEVELT DAM.
One Of the Remarkable Engineering
Feats Of the Age.

The Roosevelt dam. in Arizona, the
most important masonry structure yet
undertaken by the reclamation service,
was formally dedicated on the after
noon Of March 1S by former President
Theodore Roosevelt in the presence of
the prominent territorial officers. the
government engineers and citizens
from all parts Of the southwest.
This dam is one of the most impress
sive irrigation structures in the world,
and its construction Is one Of the
great engineering feats Of the age.
From foundation rock to top Of para
pet walls It is 2Si feet high. its length
on crest is 1850 feet. and Its cublcal
contents are 100000 yards. Its base
covers approximately an acre Of
ground The first stone was laid on
Sept. 20. 1906. and the structure was
finally completed on Feb. 5. 1911.
The Roosevelt dam serves dual
purpose-arst as conserver of floods
and. second. to develop power. The
storage reservoir created by the dam
is one of the largest artificial bodies
of water in the world. Spread out a
foot deep. It would more than cover
the entire state OF Delaware.
With the water supply now guaran-
teed by the Roosevelt reservoir near
ly a quarter OF a million acres will
soon be in cultivation. The annual
income from this land when fully de-
veloped will be greater than the en-
tire cost of the whole project. which
is estimated at approximately S9,0O0.-
600. So rich is the soil and so assured
and abundant are the crops. 1t is con-
servatlve to estimate that the irriga-
Bile area is capable of supporting in
comfort and in homes of their own
not less than 1900 families on the
farms.-American Review Of Reviews

Substitute For Rain.

While It has not been found possible
to make 1t rain. something even better
has been discovered. Moisture can be
bottled up in the soil. When soil is full
of moisture, as in the spring. the evap-
grafton is rapid; If the soil is compact,
amounting to about an inch a week
By stirring the surface. thus forming
soil mulch. this evaporation is
stopped and that moisture saved In
the soil. This is better than good
rain in the growing season and has
the further advantage OF warming up
the soil.-W. G.. Palmer. North Dakota.

Milk In Poultry Rations.

Skimmilk has always been known as
a good food for chicks, but its value as
an egg producer is not so generally
known. Experiments at the poultry
plant of Kansas Agricultural college
show that hens fed on skimmik laid
more eggs and made greater profit
than hens that were fed on beef scraps
in the same ratio. Skimmilk also dem
onstrated its superiority over curd in
these experiments.
MIX fed poultry brings the highest
price on the market. A fowl that is fed
milk from the time 1t is hatched until
marketed makes high class product.
1t Is well to remember these three
things when feeding skimmilk.
Never force the hens to drink the
milk. Always have a supply Of fresh
water before them.

Among the letters which recently
reached England by the Indian mail

PLANTATION of this postmark is that
the Indian postal authorities recently
granted permission to Captain Wind

of demonstrating the possibilities Of
an aerial service for the use of n be-

cheaper to build, and in other ways
more economical than a two-story

floors and roof counterbalance, how
ever, the low expanse Of the walls.
Plumbing and lighting are but little
cheaper If any, and because the struc-
ture is spread out it is not as easy to
heat as its advocates would have us
believe. Moreover, the bungalow
takes up more ground than a two
story house of the same number Of

In India the bungalow proved to
be the best solution Of the heat prob

produces cool house by any means
but because the wide oVerhang of the
caves broke the glare of the intense
sunshine. Bungalow rooms are not
likely to be as cool as the first floor

Only the Drug Stores May Sell Drugs

law prohibits anyone but a registered
pharmacist selling drugs except in ru-
raj districts, where any merchant may
sell patent medicine If he is five miles
from a drug store and obtains a prop
er license.
But department and dry goods stores
have been building up a big business
selling hydrogen peroxide, vaseline,
carbolic acid preparations, fly paper,
face powders, tooth paste, witch hazel
and dozens of other household articles
But these are drugs. They are sold
as drugs and to be used as medicines,
hence they come under the prohibit
ton Of the law and the state board
which has charge of enforcing the law,
says that the sale of these things,
and the patent medicines by others
than druggists, must cease.
The state board is serving notices
on all department, dry goods and gro
Gerry stores that sell fly paper and face
powder that they must cease this
profitable business. Some of the de-
partment stores are preparing to fight
the order on the ground that the state
has no right to prohibit selling use

its real purpose in the general scheme
of American home building.
The term bungalow is one which is
variously applied to rustic camps, to
one-story seaside cottages, low, broad,
extended lines with a low pitch to the
roof. 1t is not, however, properly used
when applied, as is so often done, to
houses having living rooms in the
second story.
This authority does not believe in
general in the One-story house for an
all-year dwelling 1t is a fad which,
like mission furniture, is being much
overdone 1t is supposed to be the
up-to-date fashion in many localities;
but as with many so-called fashions,
there is little reasonable excuse for its,
prevalence. Like many fads it is
bound to run its course, and there is
nothing so dismally out of place as
a fad that has ceased to be.
There is another fact regarding the
bungalow which has become current
and that is that a one-story house is
