Second-FIoo Plan.

year period will be greater by the
amount borrowed than they would be
If the money was all in hand at the
time of building.
Having determined as nearly as pos
sible the amount which is to be in
vested in the house, the final expenses
should be estimated. These will in
clude probable taxes and sewer as
sessments and principal with interest
on any money borrowed. This amount
should be added to the original
amount computed.
Regarding the house itself, there
are two principal things which should
be remembered: The first is that
quality materials and quality work
manship should be given preference
over size Of structure and fast con.
struction. The second is that there
is always a certain amount Of ex.

A rough balance may here be estab-

A rough balance may here be estab-
lished. There is a certain amount
which may be spent in the construc-
ton Of the house so that the expenses
before the house Is built will be equal
to those after the house is built. Ordi-
narily, when this condition exists the
total cost of construction must be
paid from a sum in the hands of the
owner at the time Of building. In
case it is necessary to borrow a por.
ton of the money, the expenses over
the f~ve-year period will include the
amount borrowed, plus interest up to
the time Of payment. Of course, If
the house is paid for out Of a sum
which has been earning interest, this
interest will cease coming in. The
interest amounts will probably balance
one another, since in one case an
amount ceases to come in, which
is practically equal, for a like prin-
cipal, to the amount which must be
paid out, in the other cas- The diff
ference in the two cases, then, comes
down to a matter Of the principal

Expert Advises Against Big Debt
Running Over Long Period
of Years.
TAKE QUALITY BEFORE SIZE
House Described Here Will Satisfy
Most Discriminative If Plans Are
Followed Carefully in All
J. Details.
By WILLIAM A. RADFORD.

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
'paoer. On account of his wide experience
as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he
IL, without doubt, the highest authority
on all these subjects. Address al inquiries

There is little satisfaction gained
by the man who goes into the building
of q home blindly. In most cases such
q man oversteps himself, gets hope
lessly In debt and condemns the home
building idea because Of his own folly.
Most people obtain such pleasure out
of owning their own home that they
are willing to make some sacrifice to
obtain it. However, If this sacrifice
takes the proportions Of a burden
which must be carried for too long
q time, it's oppression will over
shadow The pleasure which should be
obtained from the home.
This does not mean that man is
wrong in going into debt to obtain a
home. 1t means that he think well
and figure carefully before taking &C
ton. If he can easily clear up all In
d%ebtedness in three or perhaps i've
years, he is justified in going into the
matter Of ; home with his architect
and builder.
His first step in the analysis of the
problem should be carefully to figure
his probable over the period
which he is willing to give to pay
ing for his home. The mar who has
formed the habit of recording his
current expenses accurately is very
much better able to handle the prob
lem than the man who has only his
memory to help him. Suppose the
prospective home builder decides that
he is willing to build if he can clear
himself in five years. He should look
over his expense account for the pre-
,ceding five years and determine as
closely as possible what his yearly ex,
pense has been for food, clothing,
pleasure, sickness and all other such
items, exclusive Of rent.
If his expenses have shown an in
crease over the f~ve-year period, it is

Cincinnati Man Tells How to ShriveI
Up Corns or Calluses 30 They
Lift off With Fingers.

Ouch ?!?! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town
if people troubled with corns will fol
low the simple advice of this Gin
cinnati authority, who claims that a
few drops of a drug called freezone
when applied to a tender, aching
corn or hardened callus stops sore
ness at once, and soon the corn or
callus dries up and lifts right off
without pain.
He says freezone dries Immediate
ly and never inflames or even lrrl-
tates the surrounding skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very lit
tie at any drug store, but will posi-
lively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. Mil
lions of American women will wei
come this announcement since the
inauguration of the high heels. If
your druggist doesn't have freezone
tell him to order a small bottle for
you.-Adv.

calculations accurately, the prospect
i've home builder may reasonably ex-
pect to obtain the fullest measure Of
satisfaction out Of his investment in
a home.
The accompanying Illustrations
present a type Of house which Is at
the same time attractive and SUBJ
stantial. 1t is not very often that the
combination Of stone masonry and stuc-
co is used in house construction, and
It Is a peculiar fact, for the appear
ance Of a structure built in this way
is altogether pleasing and satisfac-
tory.
The m~assiveness Of the masonry
work fits we'll into the design and the
stucco carries along the general idea
TO the smallest detail. Stone is used
in building the porch walls and the
chimney. The porch columns are built
Of wood with stucco finish. The floor
Of the porch and the steps are made
Of concrete. The large roof surface
Is relieved with small dormers. Raft
ers at gable ends are supported with
wooden brackets.
In the room arrangement, notice the
large living room. This room occupies
the entire forward half Of the frs,
floor. An open stair is built along
n end Of the room with a landing
at the bottom which is two steps
above the level Of the living room
floor. At the other end Of the room
is q large fireplace with a bookcase or
each side. The small closet directly
opposite the front door will be handy
for wraps.
The dining oom layout includes
three-window bay, which makes thii
ROOF well-lighted and pleasant. A
buffet is built under the window II
the rear wall. Notice the handy ar
rangement Of the kitchen. The two
cupboards will be forld very convea
lent. The second flo Z contains twt

amount should not include any doubt
full resources, and it should not in
clude interest on money which is need
ed in the building operations, unless
it is possible to borrow a like amount
at q lower rate than the income rate.
The next item is the money on hand
or available in sums due the prospec-
tive home builder. This item will de-
termine largely the kind and size Of
house to be considered.

JONES. PAYS THE FREIGHT NOW.

With bad roads the farmer pays all the freight,
with small loads of fertilizer, broken springs,
broken harness, broken wagon, strained mules,
children kept from church and school. Picture
the sick baby, a worried mother, raining, doctor
stalled in red clay roads. Who pays then? For
a small road tax the baby's life might be saved.
Ask any doctor in Abbeville county how many
suffered pain and sickness last winter because of
bad roads. How many children died that a small
road tax might be saved? Are funerals cheaper
than good roads? Is the Almighty dollar the big
thing in this life, or do you feel it is worth some
thing to get to church, to Sunday School, to visit
the neighbors, for the children to attend school,
to receive the mail, to have the doctor come
quickly? You cannot have good roads without

PICHER MINES.
A. E. Bendelari, Agent. Pieher, Ok

A. E. Bendelari, Agent, Picher, Okla
Among the most remarkable devel'
Opments Of zinc mines in the world
are the Picher group Of mines ~
Picher, Okla, owned and operated BY
Eagle-Picher Lead Company, with
Mr.. A. E. Bendelari agent.
There are five mills in active oper-
alton, and four others nearing COM
pletiOn. The fourth mill completed
is known as the Meta" 1t is the
largest and most complete concentrat-
ing plant in the entire southwestern
zinc field. 1t is Of 1,200 tons capacity
and is equipped with the very latest
and finest machinery that money can
buy. A very brief mention Of the
equipment Of this gigantic plant will
be of special interest, not only to Op-
orators in the Kansas Oklahoma field,
but also to others who are watching
zinc mine developments.
Among the special milling methods
peculiar to the Meta is the double
crusher department, which can be Op-
Grated entirely separate from the jigs.
There is an 1S-inch breaker, one set
42-inch rolls, two sets 36-inch rolls
and 24-inch dirt elevator. There is
one 6OO-ton hopper next the main
building, and dirt elevators can empty
the crushed materials into second
hopper Of 800 tons capacity. Much
Of the delay in milling occurs in the
crushing department, but it thought
all Of this difficulty will be elmin-
ated by the plan Of operation in use
at the Meta mill.
The jig equipment is built somewhat
higher than at most mills. The
sludge plant is large sized building
with space for % tables. There are
two 36-inch thickners, with concrete
tanks. Electricity is the power used.
There are five shafts at this mill, two
close by and three some distance
away. Two fve-tOn gasoline engines
are used to haul ore from the distant
shafts TO the mill. The capacity Of
the entire five producing plants 10
about 5000 tons Of dirt each "a hours
and the concentrates saved is more
than 1000 tons weekly. Mine Offices

ADMIRALTY ZINC COMPANY.

Among the foremost mines operat-
ing in the Century field Of the Miami
district is the Admiralty Zinc Com
pany, with mills at Century, Okla.
The plants are located about three
miles south and one mile east Of the
famous Meta mill Of the rich Picher
developments. The lease embraces a
tract of 100 acres, lying almost two
miles east and one mile south OF Tar
River postoftice, and this was the first
mill in operation east Of the Cardin
holdings.
The l2O drill holes on the lease is
evidence of the thorough work done
by the management in determining
that large ore bodies did exist under
the entire surface Of the lease. Such
Thorough testing Of the extent OF the
hidden mineral wealth, before sinking
expensive shafts and erecting costly
mills, shows the ability Of the manage
ment to care for the detailed work
Of zinc mining. There are six shafts
into ore at present time, three OF
which are in active operation, with a
weekly production Of about 1000
pounds Of zinc blende and 100000
pounds Of lead. Recovery Of zinc is
around IL per cent and lead grades
the highest. Such. results show the
richness of the mines and the wonder
full possibilities Of the holdings Of the
Admiralty Zinc Company. A number
Of Tulsa capitalists, headed by MessrS.

Gently purchased this property. Ex-

men live in Baxter Springs, Kans.
Messrs. Brinton and Clifford are in full
line and accord with safety First"

we are calling attention of the readers
Of the Baxter Springs News In this

ter, healthier, and more desirable
working conditions for the men in his
employ, careful attention has been
given to the introduction Of the latest
