erty a crowded, built-in effect. The
final finishing up OF the grounds and
general surroundings of the house has
not received as much attention at the
hands of builders as it should. Ordi-
narily architects and builders are sat
isied to design a good house, and see
that it is properly built, while leaving
the surroundings and final embellish-
ments entirely with the owner.
Now, the fact is, houses are built
for the most part, by men who have
spent the early years of their lives in
business; and their attention has been
taken up with matters entirely differ
ent, and they are 10 qualified to ar
range the many details that properly
go with a wellarranged home. They
may know what they want in a gen.
eral way; but when it comes to fitting
a house 10 a lot in a community in
(Which they would like to live. a little
assistance from a man who under
stands such things is a great help, and
will be appreciated in after years.
Many mistakes have been made by
putting unsuitable houses in certain
communities; and a great many more
mistakes have been made in neglect
ing to fit the house to the lot, or in
not buying a lot to fit the house that
the man wants to build.
One Of the commonest mistakes in
building is to place the house the
wrong way. There are house plans
that are perfectly satisfactory when
fronted south, which would badly AZ
a northern outlook. The direction in
which a house fronts means a good
deal to some people. which others care
very little about it. North. south. east
and west-all have advantages, and
they all have disadvantages. 1t very
much depends on the likes and dis
likes of the inmates, but a great deal
also depends on the plan of the house.

The day grew dark and murky as

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKETS
Continued From Page T..

from that of last year that an accurate
estimate of the proportion of the new
crop sold is largely guess work. Per-
haps from one-third to one-half of the
crop would be a fair estimate of sales
to date.
This years buying is characterized
by decided matter of fact procedure.
Buyers are looking at crops carefully
before making offers. Last year, on
contrary, thousands of acres of stand
ing tobacco were bought by large
houses without so much as a glimpse of
the fields, let alone anything like a
critical inspection. Thus far buyers
have in most cases sought only the bet
ter crops. There is no disposition to
bid up prices and none to beat the
grower down. Both buyers and grow
ers are fully aware Of market condi-
tons and neither side is disposed to
dispute the fact that crops held until
spring must sell on their merits.
AS result, if buyer cannot get pos
session of tobacco at what he considers
a fair figure he is not likely to raise
his bid, and on the other hand the
grower, who feels that the price offer
ed him is less than his tobacco is worth
can decline the same with every reason
to believe thot he will find market
for his crop before spring at fair
price, governed by the condition of the
general tobacco market.
Late sales of tobacco have been made
at practically unchanged prices. Some
Of the poorer crops of Havana Seed
are said to be moving at as low as
thirteen cents pound. Good Havana
Seed crops are in demand at from six
toen to twenty cents in the bundle, and
fancy crops at even higher prices.
