CAFETERIAS FOR PIGS
is LATEST WRINKLE

The cafeteria system, according to
Popular Mechanics, is being applied to
young pigs in the corn belt section.
These pig cafeterias," it says, are
based on the discovery that small pigs
are competant to select the menu best
suited for them; they consist of a
little house with feed hoppers, pro-
ducts, salt and other delicacies. A bar
fence keeps the big pigs out of the caf-
eteria.

BUILDING BEHIND
NORMAL DEMAND
Stabilized Conditions Mani
tested Everywhere Indicat-
ing Time For Action.

Reports from all parts Of the
country indicate that building con-
dftions are at least one year behind
normal demand" says S. w. Straus.
THAT these estimates are conserva-
tive may be judged from the fact
that total building work in the
United States in 1916 was $3.50, 00O,-
900 and in 1917 500. 600, 900. while
various canvasses of the situation
indicate a present building deficit
far in excess $1,000, 100000. With
this strong pressure back OF the
market, and the accepted cut in steel
prices for the balance Of the year.
stabilized conditions are being man
ifested everywhere in the country.
Although structural steel represents
less than 20 per cent Of constr dction
costs. the determination OF a definite
price basis has placed the whole sit
uation on a solid footing. 1t was
quite generally felt that after-war
prices would be much lower. as this
commodity advanced more in price
during the war than other building
materials.
Meanwhile there are indications
that lumber may be expected to ad-
vance in price eventually. This eX-
pectation is based fundamentally on
a tremendous demand as a result or
the building shortage and largely
decreased production. In 1918 there
was a shrinkage Of 5000, 900, GOO feet
as compared with 1917 production.
Furthermore all indications point to
a vindication of the views of those
who have been contending that there
will be no general reduction IN
wages. In the steel industry. for ex-
ample, il is announced that price re-
auctions will not be made at the ex-
pense of labor.
Current reports indicate that
pending building projects through
out the country have reached more
than $500. 900. 600, which amount
will be greatly increased within the
next few weeks under the Stabillzed
conditions that now are being rapid
lv brought about. In the metropoh-
tan district OF New York, new pro-
iects have been increasing at the
rate of S5,0OO,OO0 a week since the
first OF March.
"A tremendous SnOIld6c VI hNA1lOS
exists in Canada as well as in the
| United States. The Dominion ana
Provincial governments are working
on a plan to lend 100000 to
! prospective home builders. This
sum would provide housing faeili-
ties for 100000 people. In New
| York City there Is an estimated
bo,,sino, shortage equal to the nor
NAL requirements of city OF Soo'-
600 population.
F, General conditions, therefore, IN
dictate that nothing is to be gained
by holding off for lower prices now
and that the unsual building activl-
ties which must continue over
period of many years before normal
requirements are met, has definitely
begun"

State Chemist Says Most

The appeal of the president read:
THE church organizations Of the
country having generously united in

ignated Sunday, May 4, as employ

nest and united support to this and
every similar movement.
Il hope that the people Of the coun-
try universally will observe employ

dedication to the mutual helpfulness
which will serve to work out in the
months to come the difficult problems
of employment and industrial organi-
cation.

make no better offering than that of
service to men and women who have
won the war.

Mindful of the endorsement by res
