RUN THE HOUSEHOLD
ON BUDGET SYSTEM
Keep Careful Accounts and Divide
Family Income Wisely
Suggestions for Vari-
GUS Salaries.

A budget is absolutely necessary TO
the wise and well-proportioned running
of household. No budget can be made
TO fit all families, even families of
similar size locality. etc, but the we'll
proportoned budget provides fair
financial basis, a starting point from
which TO begin the work of wisely di-
vidng The family income.
The main thing is TO get the budg-
ct started, to keep careful accounts
in way that will permit analyZation
of eXpendltures-for at least several
months; year, if possible. Many
people keep accounts, personal and
household, only in way that balances
cash and shows how it has been gem
orally expended. A budget should do
better than that.
An exact budget Is difficult to pro-
vide at present, with all living prices
in state Of flux but with a prevailing
upward tendency. Figures differ great
ly in various sections of the country.
frequently in various sections of the
same state. But In strictly industrial
centers, it has been authenticity com
puted, food usually consumes about AZ
per cent of the ordinary income, shell
ter IS per cent, fuel and light per
cent and the various "sundries" so
grouped because so difficult of more
exact classification, 20 per cent In the
following suggestive budgets Tor vary
ing incomes the Saving" item has
been placed first as most necessary
where the family income is not too
large and Is practically inelastic.
This item may include life insurance,
savings bank accounts and such inev-
hahie incOme-bearing governmental Sc
curities absolutely necessary with the
kind of incomes noted-as Liberty
Bonds ID War Savings Stamps.

Unusual Economic Conditions
Existing in the Lumber Industry

Lumber experts who are coopertng with the In
formation and Education Service of the Department
OF Labor, at Washington, predict that the prices of
lumber now Ill effect will remain at the present level
or, II any change is made, it will be an upward
movement rather than drop i'll prices Factors ia
vonng advance Ill prices are given below. 1t will
also be seen that the upward movement in prices of
lumber is not SO much one of sympathy with other
commodities as an economic necessity These are
the facts indicating advance:
/. Low stocks held by retail yards throughout
the United States
2. Curtailed production of mills during the last
few years.
5. Recent restricted building operations
4. Possible increase i'll foreign trade
5. Decreased ocean freights; these having al
ready been reduced COS per cent.
6. Decreased supply OF available timber and its
distance from markets.
l. Large amount of capital and uninvested
money which may be made available for investment
builders under proper financial direction
s. Conscious effort on the part of wealthy op-
orators to maintain price level that will enable them
to secure an equitable profit
g. Announced policy of the Southern Pine As
ISOLATION and other large lumber associations of main
tanning wages at their present level as long as the
high cost of commodities continues.
TO- Untitled orders actually held by mills
H. Small probability of decrease in western
freight rates which will enable western woods to COM
pete extensively with wood from other sections
r. Lack of intelligent reforestration by the
Government.
