luton of the problem Of living
within his earning capacity.
A wise selection of home is
ten steps forward on the road of
successful. matrimony. If it is at
all possible the purchase of
home is infinitely better than rent
paying. In many cases small
houses on the outskirts of a town
may be secured at the same rate
and paid for in the same manner
as rent.
The satisfaction of knowing
that at the end of the time of pay
ment the house will be your prop
erty is fundamentally less import
ant to the young couple than their
joy in knowing that they have
truly home of their own which
they may arrange for their own
pleasure and convenience.
Putting the cart before the
horse may seem the height of
folly to the very poor people who
select the furniture for their
home and then seek a place for it.
One young couple, recently con
fronted with the problem of find
ing an abiding place for the furrli-
ture of seven rooms for the rental
price of four, had to put some of
the mahogany in storage to keep
their rent within their income.
For the usual young couple a
kitchen, dining room, bed room
and living room constitute a
household which may be kept |
with the minimum of care and
the maximum of comfort.

staples as flour and sugar may
not vary much in different neigh
borhoods of the same city, the
cost of various other articles of
food does vary sufficiently to
make distinct difference in the
monthly accountings.
Another important considera-
ton in home finding is the trans
portion facility for the husband.
While the distance from his
place of work should not be such
as to cause unnecessary and I'M
healthy fatigue, every man should
be forced into sufficient outdoor
exercise by having half-nile
from his. home to the car line or
a mile walk if he be within walk
ing distance of where he works.
At this distance rental is usual
ly lower than for a similar home
closer to transportation service.
The distance serves as an aid to
health and makes possible a far
better home than. young couple
could afford if they believed
themselves restricted to certain
neighborhood closer to the heart
of town.

business men at the end of the day.
This recreation, however, should be

White Butte for a side track and pas

serious study and time by the COM

on a tree in her yard in this city this

the same as the imported California
stock and Mrs. Bartlett says there are
several dozen Of the apricots on the

This tree has been planted for several
years and all along it was supposed
to be a plum tree, as the leaves resem-
bled those of the plum very much.
1t has never borne fruit heretofore
and the owner was very surprised TO
find the fruit ripenins so early TINS

MARCUSE, CALIFORNIA,
LAND FOR PROFITABLE FARMING.

Marcuse Colony, located in Suffer
County, which is in the heart OF the
Sacramento Valley, is last coming to
the front as a farming community in
which nearly every agricultural prod
uct known may be successfully raised
without irrigation.
The soil is a dark, sandy loan,
sedimentary in character, level and
we'll drained. 1t has the advantage
over other soils in that it is loose in
character and superior to heavy soils.
With this wealth of soil, abundance
of water, unexcelled climate and long
growing season, Marcuse Colony is
the ideal place for the homeseeker
with limited means, the worn out pro-
fessional man, or tie young man look
ing for a small farm in a h%ealthful
climate.
The proximity of Marcuse Colony to
Sacramento, furnishes a ready market
for vegetables, poultry, eggs and
dairy products. Fruits, vegetables,
alfalfa, grains and grasses and poultry
yield large returns. The rainfall is
certain and drought is unknown.
Land is yet moderately priced, but
crop failures in other sections of the
United States will bring new settlers
in rapidly. This, together with the
holding of the Panama Pacific Expo
sition in San Francisco during 1915,
is bound to raise the price, and wheth.
err for a home, or for an investment,
now is the time to purchase. Land
may be had in tracts suitable to the
means of all and the results obtained
are almost beyond belief. Further III
