PREPARING FOR CLOVER CROP

If the aim is to get clover and

plan to break the ground the preced-
ing spring and to grow fertilizing
crop during the summer that can be
cultivated and then disked into the

and frees fertility. The vines are

RAISING STANDARD OF LIVING
Must Tend to Improvement OF
Town Where They Reside.

A suggestion regarding wages, made
in the Civic Federaton's report on
working conditions In department
stores, is of special interest. 1t is that
employers pay the fare Of employees
living In the suburbs This is done to
some extent in England
The plan is essentially one for rails
ing the standard Of living among its
beneliciaries. But it is more than
this. 1t Is a subsidy for efficiency, II
you care to put 1t that way What the
employer spent for this purpose he
and his customers would receive
again in the form OF better service,
even without any reduction in hours
In addition. the report points out that
a better class of employees could be ob.
tanned since they could be found
among persons already living in the
outskirts of the city. But all other
considerations yield to the meaning OF
such an arrangement for the lives of
those concerned One manager in
Philadelphia is reported as intending
to try the plan.

KEEP The MACHINERY OILED
Usefulness of implements Is Greatly
Increased and Amount of Labor
Greatly Reduced.

One of the little things that is lack
ing on majority of farm implements
is good and convenient system of lu-
bricatipn. The common oil cup with
open top or loose cap is sure to get
filled with dirt and grit, which cut out
the bearings, largely increasing the
power required to operate the ma
chine and greatly reducing its period
of usefulness.
The hard oil cup, which holds
enough oil to last week or more,
always is tight, and can be screwed
down little each day, thus nsurng
clean bearing and regular supply
of grease. Many of the common i'm
plements could be vastly improved by
replacing the common oil holes with
hard oil cups.
The Gil holes can easily be reamed
out and threaded to the proper stand
ard and the hard oil cups screwed
into them. The amount of work and
expense required will be returned
many fold in the saving of horsehesh
and the increased life of the ma
chinery.

NEW YORK FACING PROBLEM

To sum up, million and a quarter

the rest will be. Have we, then,

No, we have not We have not real.
lied the ideal of the little house with
cheap rent, and we never shall real
ize it. Instead, rents have risen, and
crowding, but more. We know now
that the cliff dweller in New York has
come to stay, at least in the old city.
The problem now is how to bar the
cliff dweller from crossing the bridges
into the New York of the future.
Since the point OF saturation was
reached in the crowded region south
of Fourteenth street and the exodus
thence began, the tenement builder
has been busy In the boroughs 1t Is
easy to foresee that the time may
come when the conditions of Manhat
tan will be reproduced in the newer
regions, without the defense of Man

nightmare of social reformers of con.

Town Planning in Universities.

At the international congress OF
town planning held at Client last sum
mer, NJ Jules Brunfarst architect OF
Brussels, and member OF the Royal
Academy of Belgium, communicated
report on the value OF universities,
academies and schools of art establish
ing definite courses of instruction in
town planning under its dual aspect OF
technique and esthetic. He gave it as
his opinion. which was generally in.
dorsed. that all architects, engineers
and people intrusted with the admins
tration of public works, both for gov
eminent districts and towns, should be
required to have followed course Of
instruction In civic design and to hold
a diploma for It. This, of course, was
making very bold claim for educa-
tonal work in the subject, but there
can be no doubt that sooner or later
it will be looked upon as a part of the
necessary equipment OF the municipal
constructor and engineer.
