The house shown in the accompany
ing illustrations contains many fea-
lures which will please all of the
members of the average family. Its
exterior is distinctive and homelike.
There is brick porch, and the walls
of the house are finished with shin
giles. Details of trim are carefully
handled throughout. The room arrange
ment is especially well taken care Of.
A coy little nook is most desir-
able feature to have in house if it
is at all possible to include it in the
plans. 1t makes quiet and attrac-
tive corner in which to read or just to
sit and think. These little hooks are
sometimes built merely as small seat

times they are alcoves and other times

The young sons Of the house require

The young daughters must be consid-

love for home must be cultivated and
made to develop in the most health
ful and pleasant surroundings. The
grownup sons and daughters divide
their interest between their own rooms
and the living rooms. For obvious
reasons, the daughters desire special

than any other member. 1t also falls
to her duty to keep the house in order
and make it q place which will be
sufficiently attractive to hold the fam
lily at home. The preparation of meals
is the most persistent Of duties. The
housewife cannot be expected to sue

the house is arranged to help her car

Special attention is required in the
living room to enable her to make this
room the center of attraction. The
kitchen and it's connected rooms must
be arranged to eliminate lost motion.
The dining room must be fitted so that
she may make her cut glass and other
dining-room furnishings as attractive
as possible.

STOCK DESTROYED ON TRACKS
More Than 100000 Paid Out by
Southern System for Animals Killed
on Right of Way.

During the twelve months ending
June 30, 1917, the Southern railway
system alone paid out more than $780,
600 in judgments to farmers for ami
mails killed on the railroads right of
way, says Popular Science Monthly.
President Harrison, of that system,
Joints out that if the farmers would
prevent their animals from straying
over the tracks they would help solve
the war problems. In the first place,
the animals killed are a total loss as
far as the food supply is concerned.
Then, the sum paid by the railroad in
recompense, even at the present prices
of equipment, would buy more than
one hundred standard boXcars capable
of handling at single load more than
three thousand tons of freight, thus
tending to relieve the freight conges-
ton. Here, then, is chance not only
for the chuckling farmer but for the
comic artist and the jokester to relin-
qush source of income for patriot
ism.

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer

subject of building, for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience

Every home owner who has an op-
portunity to spend very considerable
part of his time at home desires in
his house as many features which will
contribute to his comfort as it is pos
sible to include in the design. The
arrangement of the rooms and the
character of the special features will
depend upon the personal taste Of
those who select the, design. There
are certain features, however, which
are appreciated by almost anyone who
is interested in homes.
There are features which must be
included for each member of the fam
lily. Undoubtedly the most important
member of the family to be considered
is the ''lady Of the house." If the av-
erage family is considered, she will no

one wall under the windows. On the
opposite side of the fireplace is a
small bookcase. This nook will either
serve as a coy, secluded corner or it
can be considered as a part of the
large living room.
The living room is very attractive
and is well lighted so as to be bright
and cheerful.
The basement is a very important
part Of this design. In house as
large as this one, good basement is
necessary for several reasons. In the
first place, it is desirable to have an
efficient and satisfactory heating plant /;
and this cannot be accomplished I'M
less there is plenty or head room. The
basement under this house should also
be large enough so that it can be used
for various purposes. A laundry
should be built and careful attention
to its design with regard to conven-
fences will be time well spent In some
corner, as far from the heating plant
as possible, a storeroom should be pro-
vided for fruits and vegetables. A
small workshop could also be provided
in some part of the basement that Is
not being otherwise used.
The basement is reached by stairs
that open into the back hall on the
first floor. All the rooms on the first
floor, with the exception Of the dining
room, can be reached through this hall.
A back hall such as this has a marked
effect in preserving the privacy of
each of the rooms, as it Is not neces-
sary to go through other rooms to
reach any one room.
One bedroom Is provided on this
floor and also bathroom. The den
or sewing room can also be pressed
into service as bedroom If the &C.
caslon demands. This will hardly be
necessary, as there are four more bed
rooms on the second floor. Another
bathroom is also located on the second
floor.
On the opposite side of the house
from the bedroom, on the first floor, Is
the dining room and the kitchen. The
dining room Is connected to the living
room by double swinging doors. A
large convenient buffet is built against
one wall of the dining room opposite
the windows. There are three fairly
wide windows along the wall and also
smaller one that opens to the front
porch. There is also another small
window opposite this.

FUEL is POWDERED
Railroads in West Experiment
With Substitute for Oil.
ADAPTABLE FOR LOCOMOTIVE
Most of the Material Used in Prepa-
ration Is Known as Screenings or
Buckwheat, and Sells at Maxi

Oregon-Washington Railroad and
Navigation company officials will
make immediate exhaustive expert
ments with powdered fuel as a sub
stitute for oil and the ordinary grade
Goals on all locomotives in the North
west.
The Oregon-Washington has turned
over to the Pacific Coast Coal COM
pany one of its locomotives used on
the Seattle-Portland run to be rebuilt
to use powdered coal as fuel. The Pa
cific Coast corporation has made
more exhaustive study of powdered
coal than any other producer or user
in the West and will have free hand
in demonstrating that the fuel is
adaptable for railroad uses.
Probably with the intent of making
experiments along it's own lines, the
Spokane, Portland and Seattle rail-
road has take a carload of powdered
coal to its Portland shops. The new
fuel has been adopted by the Pacific
Coast Coal company for use in it's
Renton briquetting plant and will be
used exclusively at the Black Dia-
mohd mines.
Adaptable to Railroad Uses.
IF the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES expert
ments demonstrate powdered coal is
adaptable to railroad uses it is unoffi-
cially announced that the new fuel
will be used exclusively in the North
west by that road. The company prob
ably would use very largely the cheap
er fuel from the Centralia field and
would curtail it's purchases Of coal
from mines in the bituminous districts.
The Puget Sound Traction, Light
and Power company is to use pow
dered coal in it's Diamond Ice company
plant and ultimately will make over
the steam power plants in Seattle for
the use of powdered coal. Other
Northwestern plants considering the
experiment include the Rainier Prod
ucts company, Pacific Coast Steel
works, Everett Pulp and Paper com
pany and a cement plant at Belling-
ham.
Blown Into Furnace.
The powdered coal Is handled in air
tight containers and blown into the
furnace by light air drafts. The heat
produced is intense and far superior
to that of any crate coal or oil, it is
asserted.
Coal operators declare that the sue
cess Of the powdered coal experiments
would release large quantity of
bltuminous coal for heavy steaming
purposes.
Most of the coal used in preparing
powdered fuel Is known as screen
ings or buckwheat at the mines and
under Fuel Administrator II. A. Gar
fields ruling, sells at maximum price
of SO a ton at the mines. AS matter
of fact great deal Of this class of
coal sells cheaper than this price, and
the powdered fuel experiments prom"
lse to give a far wider market for a
much cheaper coal.
