Cost of Feed.
According to the New York agri-

on ground grain, is three cents; on
whole grain. three and seven-tenths
cents. After making repeated tests in
feeding, this station says the ground
ration proved considerably more prof

in both the hall and the bathroom.
The basement is entered from a
nook off the kitchen. 1t may be made
very useful part of the house. Rooms
should be divided off to provide for
the furnace, coal bins, vegetable stor-
age and laundry. The location of the
laundry is preferable under the
rear bedroom, since the clothes chute
should terminate in this room. The
floor of the entire basement should be
of concrete, which is also an excellent
material for the foundation of walls. If
the entire substructure of the house is
made of poured concrete it is certain
that the basement will be dry and easy
to keep clean.
The bungalow is, of all the build
ing types used for homes, most easy
to make comfortable because of the in
herent coziness which is a part of the
appearance of the house itself. In case
the family is not too large the bunga-
low is most satisfactory type Of
house. 1t is possible to preserve the
appearance of the bungalow and it's
style in room arrangement and still
furnish second-foor space in the So
called "story-and-a-half'' house; which
is simply the bungalow altered to pro-
vide more space. This type is ex-
cellent for the larger family.

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer

Il has been said that one way to
judge the character of a man is to ex-
anime the house he lives in. AL
though liberal discount must be al
lowed in the application of such
principle, there is undoubtedly some
truth in the statement, especially when
1t Is applied to a man who lives in a
house built from plans of his own Sc
lection. The least that may be said
in this respect is that the foresight of
the man is indicated by the manner
in which the house meets the needs
of his family. Comfort and conve-
nience are the qualities which are
most appreciated, but there are vast
number of considerations which af
feet these qualities and which must
be accounted for in the selection of the
house design.
One of the most common errors
made by the man who is undertaking
the task of selecting design for his
home is that of overestimating the
size of the house which he requires.
In the first place, the larger the house
the harder 1t Is to make it seem cozy
aud homelike. The man of moderate
income who must ask bis wife to keep
up the house without assistance is not
taking her into very deep considera-
ton if he builds a house which is
great deal too large for the needs of
the family. Further, with the same
investment the smaller house may be
fitted up with number of features
having convenience and comfort as
their direct purpose, the cost of these
features being absorbed in the cost of

the growing chicks; and the same Is
true of capons of equal weight from
these chicks, and from others of equal
weight and age, fed alike before ca

Glover hay, or clover clippings dried,
or green clover growing on the lawn
or in the field is a great help to egg
production for two reasons: 1t fur
nishes the green food necessary for the
fowl, and it furnishes the nitrogen that
goes to make the albumen, which is
large part of every egg. If hen is
fed corn all the time, from what source
Is she to get the material for making
the large amount of albumen that must
be elaborated by her? The corn in
deed supplies small amount of this
material, but clover hay is worth much
more for this purpose, pound for
pound.
