How And What to Build

The question What kind of a
house shall build" is one that comes
up at least once in the lives of al
most everyone. ia this cold north
ern country there are three essential
features: Build your house warm,
build it of good material and build
it of a neat design, no larger than
necessary, thereby saving fuel.
The locality of your proposed house
should be taken into consideration,
as it makes difference in the sell
ing of property. An expensive res
idence in a neighborhood of poor
houses is as much out of place, as a
cheap house would be in neighbor-
hood of costly residences
Build a neat house What looks
better in going along through the res.
idence section of a city than to see
nice we'll kept lawns, fine shade
trees and shrubbery and good houses,
all of different styles of architecture.
Do not build cottage, unless it be
a gable cottage with upper rooms.
The same roof will cover more than
a one story cottage.
Build your houses warm. Use moth
ing less than good shiplap for out
side boarding and flooring is better.
Air spaces make warmth and what
will keep out cold also will keep out
heat. Put on two thicknesses of
building paper outside, also under all
frames and cornice. If you put paper
between studding have space be-
tween paper and outside boarding
and again between paper and inside
plaster Fill in between joists to
the top of them with rock and NOR
tar. Put on roof sheathing tight and
put paper under shingles also put
paper between all double floors Build
warm house and you will never re-
greet it. Inside boarding is also a
good thing and you can strip and latf
the same.
Build a neat house and always use
crown and bed mould base board and
drop and moulded window caps
Never cut off ten dollars in cost of
house and decrease it's value one hun
dred dollars. Work for your own
pocket, as no one else will and in
building always figure on how you
are coming out should you have a
chance to sell.

At the parents meeting held in the

ming the city schools as follows:
THE school is the institution that
is most open to criticism, and in this
city the criticism relates mostly to
the financial condition 1t is said
that we are using too much money
to run our schools Is this criticism
just? In order to determine this a
comparison must be made with
schools in other cities of about the
same. size" First Mr.. Carow COM

Danger In Secondhand School Books

The February number of ''The Cru
Sader," the organ of the Wisconsin
Anti-Tuberculosis Association, calls
attention to- the danger of spreading
contagious diseases by the use of sec
ond-hand school books, especially
such as are imported into the com
nunity Books, it is said, cannot be
effectively disinfected, since in order
20 do so it would be necessary to flu
nigate each leaf The almost uni
yersal habit which children have of
noistening their fingers in turning
the leaves greatly increases the dan
ger of promiscuous use of school
books, and it suggests that the ap
apparently inexplainable appearance
Of an epidemic of scarlet fever Or
diphtheria among school children
could be frequently traced to germ
aden books There is but one way
to treat filthy books and that is to
burn them. In districts supplying
Tree textbooks this can readily be
lone, but where pupils supply their
own books these are often handed
down from child to child and are
traded or bought and sold among
children of different families and the
problem of getting rid of dirty books

educations is apparently needed
which shall insure clean books for Il e
children of Wisconsin, such a cam.
paign as that which has banished the
common drinking cup. So far as i'm
ported secondhand books are con-
.cerned, THE Crusader" suggests
the enactment Of a law forbidding inn
portation.

In conclusion Mr.. Carow stated
that any criticism which he had in
mind was surely not on the board OF
education but on the deplorablee con-
ditions existing in the general finan-
cial situation of this city, conditions
which should be righted at once.

The Electric Light for Farm Home

The Electric Light for Farm Homes
Taking the average of summer and
winter days, artificial light is needed
| in the majority of homes, not more
than four hours per day. This is for
the kitchen and living room; in bed
rooms it is needed not more than two
hours per day For the whole house,
and for the barn, an average of three
hours per day for each lamp would
seem to be ample, and five lamps will
afford much more light than now
suffices for all purposes of the
farmstead. If the householder, then
can divest himself of the idea that, if
he introduces electric light at all. he
must have clusters or festOons OF
flashing bulbs all over his premises:
and if, in addition, he can-through
cooperation with his neighbors OF
otherwise-secure current" at a cost
no greater than that at which it is
supplied in most American towns,
then the electric light would seem to
be within his reach at comparative
ly small expense. Where no power
plant or storage-hattery is to be in
stalled, the initial outlay is confined
to the wiring of the premises and the
purchase of bulbs. the cost of which
is SO small as to be within the means
of almost any householder
Recent tests at the Colorado Ex-
pertinent Station, with current fur
nished by the Electric Light Company
of Fort Collins. at charge of Is
cents per kilowatt hour, showed the
cost of burning 20-candle power
Tungsten lamp for / 900 hours to be
$3.50 This includes the cost of the
lamp itself the life of which averages
900 hours. The cost of burning a
single lamp for a year, ; hours per
day, is thus seen to be only $4.16, or
little more than cent a day 1t
is to be noted that the lamps used in
the Colorado experiment were of 20
candle power; the cheaper 16-candle
power is ordinarily used in cities.
Five lamps would cost $1,000 year.
Few improvements in the home are
attended with so much satisfaction as
that which comes from the subStitu-
ton of the brilliant and convenient
electric light for that afforded by the
kerosene lamp. In the barn the safety
and convenience of the electric bulb,
as compared with, the old time Lantern
win instantaneous appreciation. So
great are it's advantages, that many
weH-to farmers have, at cost of
sRMal hundred dollars, installed a
plant for the production of the needed
current for their individual use alone,
-and now regard the light as indispen.
sable. What they have gained indi-
vidually would seem to be within the
reach of any community of farmers
through co-opertaion.-C. r. Barns,

OF Nature, Has Been Prixed for
Many Centuries.

The fame of the ermine as q crea.
ture ~"patronized by royalty" dates
back to the reign Of King Edward LII.
of England, who made 1t a punishable
o1ense for any person except those Of
royal birth to wear the fur Of this
handsome little animal. This tyran-
nous restriction has been long re-
scinded.
The metamorphosis Of the ermins
from dull reddish brown to purest
white is among the greatest wonders
OF nature. According to Bell, the
change Is effected mot by the loss Of
the summer coat and a substitution Of
a new one for the winter, but by che
actual change Of color in the hair"

Obediently she came. "Why, Hiram,
