Drawing Prussia's Fangs.

The creation of Rhine republic is a

nearly destroy Prussia as an industrial
state Essen, Cologne, Dusseldorf, Ell

A HOTEL ON EVERY FARM.
Private Bunk Houses Doing Much to
Solve the Labor Problem.

One of the most serious problems at
tending the farm labor supply has been
to provide quarters for the men and at
the same time maintain privacy and
homelike conditions for the farmers fam
lily. Except where the farmhouse was
quite commodious and planned for the
purpose, this was impossible, ii the help
lived in the farm dwelling BESIDES. few
farmers cared To take casual hired men
into the home circle with their boys and
girls. On the other hand. self-respecting
farm laborers rebelled at sleeping and
spending their leisure III rooms improvised
in barns. tool houses and stable lofts.
To meet this situation the bunk house
has been devised. and because of its con
yenience and comfort for both the farm
er $ family and hired hands il has become
popular IN many parts of the country,
particularly where several unmarried men
| are retained as permanent help. As d
| part OF its effort To aid farmers in pro
viding quarters that will attract more de
sirable labor 10 the farm. the department
OF agriculture has prepared several plans
