in Flats.
CINCINNATI, Jan. 26.-How flats
may be made smaller and still be hab-
itable-that is to say, rentable-is the
question now engaging the attention
of Cincinnati architects. Too much
space is being wasted, in the opinion
of owners, and the architects will
meet this week to discuss economy in
design. There is a proposal to abolish
bedrooms, in the larger sense of the
word, but this does not necessarily
mean that the new. style of architec-
ture will murder sleep. The plan is
to provide facilities for sleeping. cook
ing and eating by means of cleverly
designed closets surrounding a central
living room.

Severn pleaded guilty to the charge
at a trial before Judge Woods. He
was sentenced to pay fine of $25

months Imprisonment. The imprison-

Severn's good behavior.

Mr.. HENRY A POWER TELLS
CAUSES OF FOOD COSTS

That the wholesalers are not re-
sponsible for the sensational advanc-
es in prices of foodstuffs following
the war scare in Europe and that the
advance in the cost of necessities is
wholly due to natural causes, is the
opinion advanced by Mr.. Henry A.
Co., of Paris. Mr.. Power says. NAT
ural causes led to an advance of one
half to one cent a pound, the people
all seemed to go crazy on the subject
of sugar. Wholesale grocers tried to
buy train loads. Retailers who usu.
ally by a barrel or two, bought car
load. Many people outside the regu-
lar grocery channels began to spec
ulate in sugar. They borrowed mon.
ey and strained their credit to buy
sugar before it went higher Last,
but not least in influencing the mar
ket, was the American housewife,
who crowded the grocery stores in
the large cities and smaller centers,
ran over each other, tore the clothes
off each other to get to the sugar
counters to spend their money for
sugar.
1.-The consequence was that the
American sugar refiners found them
selves unable to supply the demand
and advanced the price from day to
day. If the people had bought salt
the same way, it would have adranc.
ed in proportion. There is plenty OF
sugar to go around and 1T is a use.
less expense for President Wilson tc
spend the peoples money investigat
ing the cause of the advance. IN the
end, the law of supply and demand
will regulate the price.
I'VE will have a large crop of beet
and cane sugar in the United States
and Cuba has a large crop of sugar
20 market this fall.
"On the first of next March one
third of the tariff will come off and
after March 1, 1916, sugar will be on
the free list. What goes up must
come down. and one of these days we
will see the decline as sensational as
has been this advance.
England at present is compelled
to seek her supply of sugar in Cuba
or the United States until her mer
chant marine can operate with safety
in other sugar producing countries
OF the world.
eff this state of affairs continues
we can't expect much lower price:

DECREASE IN OUTPUT OF

Kentucky is to make very little

This is the understanding reached at
a meeting of Kentucky distillers held
recently in Louisville.
AS matter of fact, each individual
present notified the chairman of the
meeting, d. l.. Johnson, of Cincin-
natl, that he proposed to produce this
season so per cent. or less of his av-
erage crop for the five seasons from
1910 to 1914, inclusive.
1t was estimated that perhaps 80
per cent. of the States capacity was
represented at the meeting, which
was an enthusiastic one.
