This is a two fiat building of six
rooms each, and it represents a style
that is popular at the present time in
some of the larger cities
Such buildings are generally built
and owned by men who live in the
lower fiat and rent the upper. In
case the building is fitted with
steam heating plant the owner man
ages the boiler and the hot water heat
er, thus supplying steam and hot wa
ter for the whole building.
1t costs very little more to heat two
fats than one when steam is employ
ed; SO as II is matter of economy to
have one heating apparatus, and as
for hot water the same rule applies.
The hot water heaters in fiat build
ings are little round stoves, either
with water jackets or lined with coils
Of pipe through which the water cir
culates. Sometimes in winter the wa
ter is heated from coil of water pipe
inside the furnace of the boiler, but
FOR the better buildings the hot water
heater is entirely separate from the
steam heating plant
A six room fiat like this on a good
street in the city of Chicago will rent
from $4,000 to $4,000 per month, ac-
cording TO the size of the rooms, cost
of the building, and the janitor serv-
ice that goes with it, In the better
resident sections a great deal of work
is put on the lawn, in washing the
front and back steps, front hallway,
cleaning the plate glass and a thou

than the upper one because the front
stairway generally spoils one room.
but in this plan a reception hall is Sc
cured which may be used as an ad-
junct to the parlor on the first floor
1t is always important to have one
bath room over the other so the
plumbing pipes may be as short as
possible and grouped SO as to include
both bath rooms and both kitchens.
Flat buildings have undergone con-
siderable evolution during late years
The new ones are a noticeable i'm
provement over older buildings, from
the fact that most of the more pre-
tentious new fiat buildings have good
porches both in front and at the back,
they have large windows, ventilating
shafts, light Railways and wide easy
stairs, they have heavy hardwood out
side doors. generally with large pan
ell of plate glass in front.
The porches are heavy with cement
floors, especially in front, and notice
that more attention is being paid to
back porches every year. Families
living In fats like to get outside at
every opportunity. usually one porch
or the other Is sheltered from the sun
or the wind SO that 1t is possible to
get outside In one direction or the
other. Builders are learning that 1t
pays to cater to the wishes of renters,
and they are paying more attention to
such accessories.

BUCKWHEAT AS WINTER FEED
Grain Is Both Stimulating and Heat
ing, But Should Be Fed in Mod
eration-Rich in Protein.
(By NJ. X. BoYER)

(By M. Is. BOY En-
Buckwheat is both stimulating and
heating, which renders it an excel
lent grain for winter feeding; but.
being of fattening nature, it should
be fed in moderation.
1t contains more protein (egg-pro.
ducing materially than does corn, but
the percentage of digestible matter is
not so great, buckwheat having about
62 per cent. and corn 81 per cent.
Buckwheat contains 7.S per cent. of
protein and 54.S per cent. of carbo-
hydrates and fat, having a nutritive
ratio of IT; and corn, 6.3 per cent. Of
protein and rs per cent. of carbohy-
drates and fat, and has a nutritive
ratio Of 1.12.
This proves that buckwheat is a
slightly better egg producer than
corn, being more evenly balanced, but
it must be fed in larger quantities to
gain that effect.

POUITPYNOTEs

Straw and hay make good nesting
material.
Pure bred poultry means uniform
ity Of products.
Allow at least two square feet of
floor space per bird
Be sure that the male at the head
Of the flock is pure bred.
Use insect powder freely to EXTERN
mate lice when necessary.
Food has its effect on the quality
Of both the flesh and the eggs.
You will find the eggs not as fertile
IL you let the ducks grow thin.
Ducklings should not be allowed to
bathe until they are well feathered.
II is cheaper for the farmer to eat
spring chicken than to buy fresh beef.
II several hens are set In one room
1t Is desirable to confine them In good
nests.
It costs no more to feed q hen that

BIRDS FOR AVERAGE FANClER
Rhode Island Reds Are Rapidly Gain
ing in Popularity Among Poultry
men for Meat and Eggs.

The average American poultry
keeper needs fowls that combine the
qualities of good laying and good
meat production and that are hardy,
writes A. S. Wheeler in Outing. He
does not want Leghorns, because
Leghorns make poor roasters, nor
Cochins, since they amount to little
as layers. The Orpingtons, big,
handsome birds, have white skin and
legs, whereas the fixed Ameican mar
ket demand is for yellow.
The flesh of the Plymouth Rock.
which is an excellent winter layer, is
OF coarse texture and Rock hens go
broody too hard and too often. Wyan-
dottes don't give quite enough eggs,
and those that they do give are ir-
regular in color and shape.
In fact, the absolutely perfect COM
bination fowl has not appeared; there
is always some fault in evidence, or

As yuo know, I have been excecti-
ingly anxious that the Department
should let the contracts for the build
ing of a substantial fence to inclose
the park. I know that $4,000 will
not be enough to pay the cost of
building the fence and for that reason
I am anxious to have the contracts
let because it will give me valuable
information and I will be in a position
to show that an additional appropri-
alton of at least $4,000 more will be
required to complete the fence and for
the building of headquarters and
sheds or barns for the animals:. ] am
quite sure that l shall be successful
in securing sufficient funds to inclose
the park with a substantial and orna-
mental fence and as soon as that has
been done we will have accomplished
our purpose. We will then be entitled
to annual appropriations for its main
tenance.
I have done a great deal of work
in order to get this appropriation and
I hope that the good citizens Of Devils
Lake and vicinity will not refuse to
accept it because it is too small; it
means that as oon as this appropri-
alton has been used up it will be pos
sible for us to get more.
DR.. T. S. Palmer, Assistant Chief
of the Biological Survey, called on me
today and we discussed the Sully's
Hill National Park. He informed me
that the Department would advertise
for bids not later than the 18th Of
January. He also informed me that
a representative Of the American
Wire Co., had called on him and
that they had practically decided on
what kind Of wire to use, but that
they were undecided as to what kind
Of posts should be used. I have rec
commended that they use steel posts
because they r stronger and also
more ornamental. The question of set
ting the posts along the edge Of the
lake was discussed and I suggested
that they should be set in cement.

CIVIL SERVICE
ABANDONED

The breaking up of the civil service
under which merit and not political re
ward has been the basis of appoint
ment for years, has become almost a
national scandal. This has been done
by a Democratic Congress with the
knowledge and approval Of President
Wilson. Republican Senators and
Representatives are astonished at the
c%omplacency with which Mr.. Wilson
is permitting the disruption Of the
merit system, built up through sue
cessive administrations regardless of
politics. A statement by Senator
Jones, of the State of Washington, ex
presses the situation:
"This administration came into
power upon a positive pledge to OBJ
serve and maintain the Civil Service"
said the Senator. ut has attacked
that system at every opportunity by
express legislative enactment, deputy
marshalls, deputy collectors, income
tax collectors, commercial attaches
and other officers have been taken
out from under the Civil Service and
have become a part Of the spoils Of
politics.
"This has been done with the con-
sent and approval of the President.
Attempts were made to put all post
office employees and the employees
of the new currency system under the
spoils system and these attempts were
frustrated only by Republican oppo-
sition. In the light of their Demo-
cratic profession of devotion to the
Civil Service in the conduct Of the
business Of the government is a farce
and a sham"

Rumor has it that on Dec. 81, there
will be some radical changes made in
the passenger service over the Great
Northern, but nothing definite is
known at this time. It is reported
on pretty good authority that trains
No. 1 a nd2 will be put back on the
main line to run on their former SEIZED
ule, and also this will be the case of
Nos. 3 and 4. Citizens of Devils Lake
and this section of North Dakota hope
this may be the case, as it will be
the means of giving US much better
service.
