EFFL0REsCENCE ON WALLS.
Publication Explains How Social
ed 'Saltpeter" May Be Removed.

Answering the query of corre-
spondent who wanted to be informed
how the eff1orescence on brick and
rough cast walls commonly known
as "saltpeter'' could be removed and
prevented from appearing after re-
moval. a recent issue of the Painters
Magazine contained tine following sus-
gestions:
Before the so-called saltpeter can
he removed successfully, il is neces-
ssry to investigate the cause of it's ap-
pearsnce. The crystalline effior-
escence rs composed mostly of water
soluble salts. that may have been
present in the lime mortar. in the sand
or in the water. The salts are often
also present in bricks that are i'm
perfectly burned or composed of in
ferior clay. Finally. il is possible
that these salts may find their way
into the walls through moisture in the
foundation. In every case. it is the
rule that after a short period of dry
warm weather. the salts come to the
surface and form whtsh deposit or
granular nature. Tee remedy must
adapt itself to the cause OF the trou-
BILE.
II it is caused by moisture arising
from the foundation of the wall the
remedy lies in the isolation of the
foundation from moisture by proper
drainage. because if this is not done
the efhorescence will appear again
during the first wet spells after its
removal. The effiorescence in any case
can be removed by brushing off with
very dilute muriatic acid, to be follow
ed by thorough washing with clear
water. This done, the surface should
be protected by a. least two, If not
three. coats of good oil paint. II the
walls are of brick the joints should

FARMERS LARGEST HOLDERS.
Possess More Acreage Than Any
Other Class of Realty Owners.

FROM National Real Estate Journal
II suppose no one will deny that by
far the largest holders of land are the
farmers" says New York realty deal
er- "in all probability they hold not
only more land in acreage, but also
more in value. than all the rest of the
community combined.
The second largest owners of land
are. without doubt. made up OF home
owners. The majority of these are la
borers. mechanics. small saiaried per-
sons. many OF whom have either built
their home with the assistance Of
building loan associations or have
purchased them on the installment
plan In either case they have invest
ed their hard-earned savings in their
title homes and are fighting hard to
retain them.
The third largest class OF real es-
tate owners to my mind is made up Of
small storekeepeers and trades people
who have laid aside sufficient to pur-
chase their places of business in the
many cities. towns and villages
throughout the country. These include
merchants and mechanics. such as
plumbers. contractors, builders, ETC..
and in some cases private bankers and
professional men.
Lastly. we come up to the holdings
OF investors who have purchased prop
ertY merely TO obtain satisfactory re-
turn from the rentals thereof. 1t is
quite natural that SUCH buildings as
the Singer building. the Woolworth
building and the metropolitan and
Eauitabl Life buildings should attract
attention with their many towering
pinnacles Not only this. but they
touch the imagination of the average
citizen and lead him TO forget the large
holdings of farmers. iaborers and
storekeepers. and to think of the real
estate interests plutocratic. Per.
haps this attitude is emphasized owing
TO the fact that we have here in New
York few very large landed estates,

the crew of the American steamer
Ramos, which founded in a gale on
July 81, about 800 miles north OF Wat

their ifeboat for a submarine. They
advanced their theory after reading
that the crew of the Terrier. upon ar
rival at Colon, reported having sighted
a submarine near Waiting island.
Officers in their report to their
owners here declared that a steamer
passed close to their lifeboats on July
13, and steered away in a zig-zag
course as if she had mistaken the
