The sides and roof are built alike,

a more pleasing effect. The spacing

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject OF building, for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience
as Editor Author and Manufacturer, he
is, without doubt, the highest authority
on all these subjects. Address all inquiries

two-cent stamp for reply.
Neat, attractive, 6ve-room bunga-
lows are in great demand in towns,
villages, and in the outskirts of large
cities.
American ingenuity has met all diff
f1culties and adjusted this type of
building to the satisfaction of build
ers and owners and the public in gen.
eraI, with the exception only of covet-
Gus neighbors who are not fortunate
enough to own bungalows.
The perspective and floor plan here.
with illustrated shows bungalow
type of residence intended for a com
paratively narrow lot that has consid-
cradle depth.
The general arrangement is to place
the house about twenty feet back from
the street to look well on the lot
The depth of the house is Al feet G
inches, which brings the rear of the
building about sixty feet from the
street line.
A bungalow setting requires consid-
cradle garden at the back and neat
ly-kept grass plot in front to carry out
the idea Of coy home comfort. A
pretty house needs beautiful flowers
and handsome shrubbery to complete
the picture.
The construction of this bungalow
Is concrete up to a few inches above

The gigantic amusement purveying organiza-

lion dollars in studios and factories in this coun-

expended annually for the making of films. More

DEATH OF SIXTH BRIDE DESCRIBED
Murder Trial of George Joseph Smith
Continued in London.

London, June 29.-The crown present.
ed its last witnesses yesterday in the
trial of George J. Smith, charged with
drowning three of his six wives in their
bathtubs.
Mrs. Louisa Blatch, landlady Of a
roominghouse at Highgate, where Smith
took his sixth wife, Margaret Elizabeth
Lofty, on her honeymoon, told of the
young brides mysterious death the day
following her marriage. Smith glared
at her defantly.
"They had been out walking in the
forenoon, just like newly married cou-
ple,7 said Mrs. Batch. "When they re-
turned at noon, the girl said she wanted
to take bath, and | drew some water
for her. | came downstairs, and then |
heard the front door slam as if Mr..
Smith had gone out. | didn't look to
see if he really went out.
In about half an hour he came into
the kitchen with his hat in his hand and
some tomatoes. He said he had Just
been to market. Then he went on up
stairs, and in minute we heard him
yell:
"'Come up quick She's dead--in
the tub

holding the girls head. T.
thought she was dead, but he told me to
go for a policeman and a doctor. He
said: Better get DR.. Bates; she was
sick last night and | took her to him.

A Short Memory.

Uncle Jed was a trife slack about
quitting the bottom when the levee
broke and had to take to tree. Morn
ing came and there was sixty feet OF
Mississippi food water between him
and shore. The preacher happened
along on the high ground and saw Jed.
but there wasn't any boat Moreover,
Jed's suspicion that there were al
ligators about was we'll founded.
The preacher besought Jed TO swim.
but in vain. Finally he called out:
Jed, have faith. Remember how
Jonah was cared for In the whale and
saved after three days"
Jed spoke earnestly.
"Yas, sub, remember. l ain denyin'

tive power being a horse turning a wind
lass at the top of the mine. They said
that the coal in the seam they were at
work in was all of 90 feet thick and it
was nice hard coal. They said nearly
every ranch here had a coal mine of its
own and that they were too far from a
railroad to ship coal to the outside world,
SO they worked the mine in small way,
supplying Meeker and a few renches
that had not opened a coal mine for
themselves. They said that coal under
laid the whole country here in veins
thicker than ever found in Pennsylvania.
When railroad gets in here there will
be business in coal, but they win have
to climb mountains and go through can
yons to get here unless they find bet
ter way to get here than we did. They
say we shall soon come to better road.
Hope so.
We have Travelled nearly 500 miles in
Colorado, or about twice the distance we
have travelled in any other state. As
general thing we have found the auto
roads in the state excellent. / think they
do not try to call the road we are now
on an auto road, but am not sure, as
few auto fools like us, | guess, 60 over
the road occasionally.
Last night, about % miles east of here
we stopped at the top of rock on which
was printed, Water" and an arrow
pointing the way, We investigated, but
found no water at this time; but We
found cave under the rocks where
horses and cowboys had made home for
and 30 feet beneath, in a gull |
", was where they usually found water, |
but none now. The water here at this
ranch is not much better, if any, than |
usually found in Vermont mud puddle.
We are out of potatoes; have been
buying new ones on the railroad for some |
time. So inquired at the ranch this |
morning if they hadn't some to sell. They |
,aid there was not an old or new potato /
On the ranch. So we will have to go
without until we get somewhere.
One thing more about Colorado.
hink Colorado must be healthful state,
or we have seen no cemeteries outside
II cities. and those in the cities are very
mall and not much occupied. So per-
APPS il is best to revive the old
tory about Colorado. The climate
Iere is so very dry that when PEG.
lie get to old age they all dry up to al
most skin and bone and as they grow
lder seem TO get very tired and want
o sleep a good deal. So when they get
90 tired and sleepy, they put them in a
az and lay them on an upper shelf near
he fireplace and keep them there till
riends from a distance call to see them,
hen they are taken down and soaked in
arm water until they awake. when they
ill talk a short time, but soon get
eepy. and want to be put back on the
helf to rest until the next time.
SO good bye, Colorado, we are about
, enter Utah state. +. ID. Camp.

GOOD WATER FOR FARMS.
Clear, Sparkling Water Is Not Always
Pure Water

Clear. sparkling water is not always
pure water. A refreshing draught from
"the old oaken bucket" may be the be-
ginning of long and possibly fatal ILL
ness from typhoid fever, dysentery, chol-
era or other disease.
The subject of pure water supplies for
drinking and cooking purposes is dis
cussed in bulletin just issued by the
United States public health service under
the title, "Good Water for Farm Homes"
The germs of the so-called water borne
diseases come from the bodies OF persons
afflicted with those diseases. They do
not live long outside the body and do not
originate spontaneously in nature. A few
diseases are communicated from animals
to man, but for the most part the germs
which get into drinking water and pro-
duce disease come only from human be-
ings. If we keep the waste products
from the bodies of human beings and
animals away from our water supplies,
we keep the water free from disease
germs.
The usual sources of farm water sup
plies are wells, springs and cisterns.
Running streams are so seldom free from
dangerous pollution that without purf
cation they cannot often be considered
safe for domestic use.
The most common form of supply is
the shallow well, reaching into a layer
of earth saturated with water. Few of
these are fed by flowing streams, except
in limestone formations, and they are
really little more than reservoirs for
Surface water" Since they drain the |
surface for radius of sometimes sew
eral hundred feet, their location with |
reference to stables, outhouses and stock |
pens is matter of prime Importance.
Other possible sources of pollution are a
leaky or loose well casing, defective
curb, or a cover that is not water tight.
The best methods of constructing such
wells and protecting their contents are
set forth in this bulletin of the public
health service.
Artesian wells, driven wells, csterns
and natural springs are also discussed in
this publication, and safeguards against
pollution prescribed. IL is sometimes inn
possible to secure pure water for drink
ing and cooking, and methods of purifi.
cation must be adopted. Ii should be
borne in mind also tnat once a safe sup
ply is obtained, its purity is insured Only
by the continued observance of the prin.
ciples of common sense and common
cleanliness. These are neither difficult
nor expensive.

HANGED BY A GHOST.
Curious Story Of Murder and the
Discovery Of the Crime.

Discovery OF tne CRIME.
An old volume of the Quarterly Re-
view mentions crime discovered In a
most extraordinary way in Australia
IN the year 1880, Of which public rec.
ord Is preserved and which figures
with full details In the journals Of that
period.
The confidential steward of wealthy
settler near Sydney stated that his
master had suddenly been called to
England on important business and
that during his absence the whole Of
his immense property would be In his
exclusive care.
Some weeks after an acquaintance Of
the absentee settler riding through his
grounds was astonished to perceive
him sitting upon a stile. He strobe
forward to speak when the figure turn
ed from him, with look of intense
sorrow, and walked to the edge of
pond, where 1t mysteriously disap-
peared
On the morrow he brought a number
of men to the water to drag 1t, and the
body of the man supposed to be on his
way to England was brought up. The
steward was arrested, brought to trial
and, frightened at the story of his mas
tsr's ghost, confessed the crime, stat
Ing that he did the murder at the very
stile on which his masters ghost had

Cottonseed Industry in Foreign
Countries.

Washington, ID. c., June 29.-ln 2.
the value of American cottonseed prod
ucts has risen from $20,000,000 TO Sl36,
0OOOO and many people in the cottor
districts can remember when the cottor
seed accumulated in huge piles about the
ginneries, Just as sawdust does near the
sawmils. And it was just as worthless
as the sawdust. To-day the cotton fields
of the United States have to large
extent replaced in our economic system
the olive groves of the Mediterrean
district. The oil is first-class edi.
bic product and the cake left after crush.
ing the seed constitutes an equally val
liable cattle feed.
The cottonseed products have entered
largely into our export trade, and the
fact that there was a falling off in ex.
ports from Si2,0OO,0o0 in 1913 to s25,.
100000 in 1914 has led TO an inyestiga-
tion OF the entire foreign field by the
bureau of foreign and domestic COM
merce, of the department of commerce.
The results OF the investigation are
embodied in monograph entitled. Got
tonseed Industry IN Foseign Lands, I"
which is a compilation of information
from consulate reports and other sources
by DIR. Thomas II. Morton, commercial
agent Of the bureau.
Outside Of cotton growing lands. Great
Britain and Germany are tbe only coun-
tries in which cotton seed is regularly
crushed on a very large scale. Egyptian
cotton seed is employed In Germany:
Egyptian and Indian chiefly in Great
Britain. More success has been obtain.
ed IN Germany in producing an edible
oil, fairly rivaling the best grades Of
American oil. than has been the case
with British crushers. The German man
j. under the control Of lead.
ing American firm in this country.
The monograph deals entirely with the
question Of cottonseed crushing in the
countries where cotton is grown-espe-
cially India, Egypt, Asiatic Russia.
