THE BUILDING OF HOMES.

The housing and peallinC of prop
erty will be given more attention by
the present legislature and some
wholesome legislation may result from
the consideration of the subject.
AT the present time there is no
general law relative to housing ex-
cepting those that are enforcible by
the state and local health officers.
If man wants to become land
lord he should make his property
sanitary and healthtul. If it does not
pay to do this il should not be rented.
Oyercrowding and the housing OF OBJ
jectionable classes in districts not in
harmony with such tenants will all be
included in bill to be offered.
When West Ottawa was laid out
there was very little order or arti.
chectural taste used in the laying out
of lots or the building Of houses. As
matter of fact, architects were few
and far between in those days. No
uniform distance from adjoining prop
erty or curb lines were followed and
as result there is not street in
West Ottawa but what Vim. Steven.
son could greatly improve by moving
few houses either backward, for
ward or sideways
The observance of these lines are
moi altogether intended to satisfy the
critical oye, but to promote healthful
conditions. Crowded houses shut out
the sunshine, obstruct the circulation
of air and the proper airation of the
ground surrounding the properties A
law to give thoughtless and indiffer-
ont people rules to follow in the
building of houses would be a good
law and welcome one.

MORE TAXES.

an ambitious program outlined for
the present session of the legislature.
Nearly every municipality is short of
funds. They always have been and al
ways will be. They are allowed to az.
sess at the rate of $l.20 This is not
enough to conduct an up.to-date city
and provide all modern convenience>,
including hot and cold water in the
public rest rooms and ice in the sum-
mer time. The League believes the
rate should be increased to $500 and
the Legislators will be urged to pass
such measure. There Is no que,-
ton but what the city authorities can
spend the money, but no such increase
should be granted unless a referendum
is provided for cities which seek such
additional funds

Peasants on the slopes of Mount Aetna can stlu boil water over the lava that flowed from the volcano during tho eruption of 1910. Lava. according Co Walter WOodburn Hyde of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania. writing in the Geographical Review, often reaches temperature of 2.OOO degrees F.
 Even the ancient poets recorded the tenacity with which lava retains it's heat. and BOrelh. describing the great eruption of 1889, says the lava took eight years to cool It is related that steam was still rising in 1880 from lava elected in 1TS7. And this is not astonishing when we remember that the stream of molten lava which reached the sea at Catania on that oc- casion was at least 600 yards in breadth, forty feet deep and contained S,532, 100000 cubic feet. It banked up against the walls of Catania, which were sixty feet high. until it flowed over the top and destroyed large part of the city.

The British soldier when fresh bread is not available is supplied with what he calls ''dog biscuit" It looks like just that, being a thick cracker four inches square and weighing three ounces. Of whole wheat flour pressed solid, it might be described as con- densed loaf of bread.
 The French have a "war bread" somewhat similar, which when put into hot water or soup swells up like a sponge.

 There is a growing crusade against the Fahrenheit thermometer used In all English speaking countries, and the plea is made that the Centigrade ther- mometer be employed in its place. The Centigrade Is used for nearly all scien- tific purposes and Is decidedly superior to the Fahrenheit, but the latter is in familiar use among the great mass Of people who use heat measuring instru- ments.
 Practically all English speaking peO- pie use the Fahrenheit scale. even with all its incOnveniences, and people who imagine that they can effect a change by an act of congress reckon without authority. Nothing is more difficult than to change the established habits of a people, truth which will slowly dawn upon the enthusiast who undertakes to change the meteorology of a nation.

Walmuka aa Rood.

The ancients held the walnut in high esteem. Mortals could and did exist on acorns, but walnuts were so de- hciOus in taste and flavor, so palatable and nutritious, that they were revered as food only for the gods to dine upon. Modern investigation and modern GUS toms have popularized the uses of the walnut to such an extent that it is now regarded not only as luxury, but as food of great nutritive value. A chemical analysis of the nut shows that it is six times as nutritious as meat. No vegetable or fruit, with the possible exception of the olive, can be compared with the walnut as a strength giving and fat producing food. All nuts are possessed of elements of nu- triton, but the highest in rank is the walnut.-Manchester Guardian. a.

Monster Anystaeks.

On the first approach to a ROumanian village one is startled by the largest haystack that the American will prob ably ever have seen. Rod upon rod this monster stretches upon the horizon. The explanation Is a simple one. Hay is one of the largest articles of prOdue- tion in ROumania. Landed proprietors and peasants, one and all, raise It and depend upon 1t for their support, When, however, a peasant feels grievances in- tolerable, 1t is a matter of no great difficulty to set the proprietOr's hay afire-and no peasant in the district would think of assisting in the detec- tton of the incendiary. So the law per mits the proprietor to force all the peasants in the district to place their hay with his, a record of the weight of each mans contribution being kept by both sides. In the event of fire-and it now behOOyes both sides to guard against all this-all contributors suffer in roportion.-Exchange

About Tamnaratura.

The best authorities on the science of meteOrolOgy tell us that without the various changes in the temperature there would be a perfect calm at all times in all parts of the globe. A uni form and unvarying barometric pres sure would everywhere prevail, and there would be no change of seasons, no evaporation or condensation, no clouds and no rain. In short, without changes of temperature, which we sometimes think so uncomfortable, the atmosphere would soon become poison ous, stagnant and incapable of sus- taining human life.
