FREE PLANS FOR DWELLINGS
United States Housing Corporations
Scheme to Assist Own Your
own-Home Committees.

The fact that plans for dwellings,
prepared by the United States Housing
corporation during war time for vari-
GUS government projects, are to be
made available for general public use
by the own-your-Own-home section,
information and education service,
United States department Of labor, will
serve to stimulate the interest of wom-
en- in all parts of the country in this
movement.
Several types of houses have been
selected, and the plans for these will
be given to own-your-own-home COM
mittees which are now carrying on
campaigns in more than 40 cities.
These plans are for dwellings that will
best serve the needs of average fami-
lies. Beauty and utility have been
combined in the most practical manner
and the plans are capable Of many va
riations. It is explained that the pur-
pose is not to interfere in any way
with the work Of local architects by
thus providing government plans, free
Of cost, but it is expected that when
the estimates in widely separated
states are compiled the information
will be Of value to prospective home
owners, while it will afford compare
sons Of the varying cost Of construc-
ton in many parts of the United
States. The employment Of local arch
fleets is advocated.
Requests, that local own-your-own-
home campaigns be started without
delay were sent out by the United
States department Of labor to 400
cities. Letters were addressed to
mayors, labor organizations and the
clergy, as well as to clubs and other
associations that have expressed will
ingness to aid the campaigns. While
there are now 40 cities conducting we'll
advanced own-your-own-home cam
paigns, nearly 200 others have started
the work of stimulating building.

SEES NEED FOR z0NING LAW
Writer Points Out Why Exclusively
Residence Districts Should BE A.
forded Proper Protection.

Chicago is asking the Illinois legisla-
ture for a coming lava law that will
permit cities In Illinois to say what
part shall be reserved for residence
purposes. This is thing that every
city in the country has some inter-
est in because 1t is step in the right
direction, asserts the Davenport Times.
There must be factory and commercial
districts, Of course, and there must
also be residence districts. But it isn't
fair to- man who has developed a
residence property, beautified the
grounds, and arranged the house to
suit him, to have all Of sudden. some
sort of business concern established
next door, to the deteriment of his
home. Every city in the country has
numerous examples Of just that sort Of
thing. Restricting residence property
is going to become more and more the
thing as the years go by. We have a
few districts In Davenport that are
thus protected, but there are many
other districts where the people who
own homes have no protection ut all
from the possibility Of undesirable
construction and business enterprises
on the lots next door.

Building a House for Sunshine.


One of the problems of modern city
planning is to get sunshine. For ex-
ample, to quote a Canadian city
planner propounding what almost
sounds like conundrum: "How shall
a detached building be constructed and
oriented so that not only the exterior
wall surfaces, but also the surface of
the ground around them shall have the
direct rays of the sun for as long a
time as possible on December PIP" The
problem, it appears, can be worked
out, and has been, in the case of at
least one town, in which each house,
and even each building in the bust
ness section, is solution of this tech
meal problem. 1t appears also that
the way not to do 1t is to follow the
long established custom of many build
ers in the north temperate zone and
square the walls Of the building with
the points Of the compass. The town
that gets all possible sunlight has no
north and south or east and west
streets, and the walls Of its structures
stand at various angles with the
weather vane. II there Is one, on the
church steeple.

PREVENT HORNS ON CALVES
Either Caustic Soda or Caustic Potash
Without Other Substances Is
Satisfactory.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
When circumstances are favorable,
as in the case of farmers who build
up their herds by raising the progeny,
the horns may be prevented from
growing by simple and practically
painless method, and the custom Of
preventing the growth of the horns is
becoming more popular and more gen.
orally practiced under all conditions
except in the case Of calves dropped
on the open range. The calf should
be treated not later than one week af-
ter its birth. preferably when it is
from three to five days old. The agent
to be used may be either caustic soda
or caustic potash, both of which may
be procured in the drug stores in the
form of sticks about the thickness of
an ordinary lead pencil and inches
long. These caustics must be handled
with care, as they dissolve the cuticle
and may make the hands or fingers
sore. The preparation of the calf con-
sists in first clipping the hair from the
parts, washing clean with soap and
warm water, and thoroughly drying
with cloth or towel. The stick of
caustic should be wrapped In a piece
OF paper to protect the hands and fin
gers, leaving one end of the stick un-
covered.
Moisten the uncovered end slightly
and rub it on the horn buttons or little
points which may be felt on the calf's
head, first on one and then the other,
alternately, two or three times on
each, allowing the caustic to dry after
each application. Be very careful to
only. II it is brought in contact with
the surrounding skin it will cause pain.
Be very careful also not to have too
much moisture on the stick of caustic,
as it will remove the skin if allowed
to run down over the face. After treat
ment, keep the calf protected from
rain, as water on the head after the
application of caustic will cause it to
run down over the face. This must
be carefully avoided.
Either caustic soda or caustic pot
ash alone, without the admixture of
other substances, answers the purpose
satisfactorily. Some years ago, how
ever, certain preparations or "dehorn-
ing compounds" composed largely Of
one or the other of these caustics,
were generally used, and as inquiries
are still occasionally received concern
ing such preparations, the following
formula is given: Combine in an
emulsion 80 per cent Of caustic soda,

Custom Of Preventing Growth Of Horns
10 Becoming More Popular.
IS per cent Of kerosene, and rs per
cent of water. The caustic soda is
dissolved in the water and heated to
the boiling point, then removed: from
the fire, and the kerosene added grad
ually, while the mixture is vigorously
stirred. This emulsion Is applied In
very much the same manner as the
stick caustic, except that it is neces-
sary to employ a short, stiff brush.
Sometimes meat skewer Is used, the
large end being mashed to form a
stubby brush. Two or three applica-
tions should be made to each horn
button, as in the case of the stick
caustic. with intervals to allow it to
dry.
In the very young calf the horn
button, or point that will ultimately
develop into horn, has scarcely any
attachment to the skull, and may be
felt as small button embedded In
the skin. In this early stage 1t may
be easily removed with sharp knife
or a pair Of curved scissors, but even
then caustics should be applied to kill
any remaining cell life belonging to
this germ point; otherwise there may
be some subsequent irregular horn
growth, which IL more or less OF Q
Disagreement.

that 10 addition 10 federal aid already provided. and
our e'sn road building provisions We will have nine

Several plans have been proposed for raising

a direct tax levy. That would prove q very heavy
immediate burden. The Legislature has the power
70 impose Il. but members very properly hesitate 10
impose any such additional tax burden without first

Undoubtedly the soundest plan yet suggested is
that proposed IN the Barnes resolution which would
