There are two good reasons why
bungalows are popular. One Is the
air of coziness that the exterior gives,
and the other is that the rooms oil
are on one floor, simplifying the work
of the housekeeper. Bungalows are
popular now, but in California a great
proportion of the homes built follow
this type of architectural design.
The bungalow here pictured is a
good example of an inexpensive home
The walls are sided to the height of
the window stills, and covered with
shakes" or shingles above. Both
are painted green. The porch piers
and the chimneys are constructed of
rough brick, and the roof is of gray
roofing composition. The attractive
porch Is floored with concrete.
The dimensions of the house are 20
by 45 feet, just the right size for a
small lot. The FIVE rooms are the liv-
Ing and dining rooms, kitchen and two
bedrooms; and bath room, Of course.
Additional features are the front
porch, 16 by s feet. and screened-in
rear porch 8 by feet.
The ceilings Of the living and din
ing rooms are beamed, and the walls
Of the latter are finished with a panel

AS a result of high prices Of wool
and mutton and the value Of sheep as
weed and waste utilizers, western irri
cation farmers are keeping more and
larger flocks.. AS rule these farm
fiocks are Of good breeding, many con-
sisting of purebred animals, their own

bred ram lambs to range-country stock
men, who do not reserve breeding
stock from year to year. Several
projects are now operating wool pools,
the main function of which is to con-
centrate the wool in large quantities
and develop keener competition among
buyers. Combination also favors grad
ing and better classifying of wool and
allows q small producer to realize
greater profits from his sheep-farming
operations.

STOCK MAINTENANCE RATION

Cattle to Be Grazed.

prepared by the United States Depart

The greatest obstacle In developing
the grazing industry in many eastern
and central sections is the cost of
wintering the stock. 1t is impossible
to buy young cattle or sheep in the
spring in sufficient quantities and at
price to yield a satisfactory profit
from TIE summer grazing.
One of two plans must be followed.
A breeding herd may be kept to pro-
duce the stock, as is prac.iced on the
ranges of the West, or young stock
may be purchased in the fall-the plan
followed by the grazers in the blue
grass region Of the virginias and Ken
lucky. Either method necessitates the
wlntering of animals.
Right here should be laid down a
hard-and-fast rule. Cattle which are

The floor plan that accompanies the
exterior view Of this bungalow shows
how well the rooms are arranged for
comfort and for the convenience Of
the housekeeper. The living and din

WORK AND SAVE.

While it is gratifying to feel that
Federal and State authorities
throughout the country are under
taking, by every legitimate means,
to reduce the cost of living the fact
should not be overlooked that the
food situation in Europe is even
worse than it is in America, and that
while there is much need that liv-
ing conditions be made more tolera-
bile here, it is also incumbent upon
us to aid as much as possible in the
Improvement of living conditions on
the other side of the ocean.
When we went into the Great War
for the preservation of human lib
erty we knew full well that it would
mean sacrifice, and we did sacrifice
many thousands OF our finest young
men to that great cause. An now, af
ter America has done so much to
preserve the freedom of our Eu
ropean Allies it i'll becomes US to
consider only our own physical ease
and comfort when the call comes to
US from across the sea to aid in the
preservation of human life. This
does not mean that we must jeop-
ardize our own health by sacrifice
of necessary food. but it does mean
that we should work and save
work to increase production and save
to prevent waste-as much as pos
sible in order to complete our task
Of rescuing Europe from destruc-
ton.

Many theorists who are old enough
to know better are advocating that a
man who produces all that he can
on his farm is foolish, because they
have noted at various times that small
crops have sold for more money in
the aggregate than larger crops.
Suppose in crop-failure year that
corn should go to $40 a bushel? If
you have no corn what good would
that do you? Would it be better for
few farmers who have corn to make
big money out of the farmers in the
crop-failure section and others who
have no corn?
Suppose every man should cut
down his acreage of cotton to boost
the price. Would the man with the
smallest amount of cotton get rich
Nobody asks you to grow cotton at a
loss; there are hundreds of things
that can be successfully grown at a
profit. Why he a slave to cotton? But
when you do grow cotton, grow on
each acre all you can proftably pro-
duce, In order to do this you will
have to know the cost of fertilizer,
labor, etc. Then it is a matter Of
arithmetic.
"There are planters who make
money year after year in cotton. They
can make money often when you can't.
Whose fault is it? Many fail in bust.
ness-farming as well as merchandise
ing. If you can't make it pay-get
out Of it.
Make Every Acre Work ProfitabIy.
"The principle involved is the same
as in manufacturing. The student of
economics knows that if a plant is
not used to it's full capacity there is
a consequent loss in the return on the
investment. The same is true on an
acre of land" said Mr.. Frank Baackes,
vice president of the American Steel
& Wire company, when asked about
the cotton situation. "In the press
service of one of our middle states
colleges, the dean says, None of our
instructors are teaching the farmer
that it is either his duty or to his
greater advantage under peace condi-
lions to secure maximum produc-
ton regardless of other economic con-

siderations Exactly so; but such
advice must be made definite In order
that the lay and inefficient may not
take it as an excuse to loaf on the
job.
1T is true that if every factory In
the United States should make moth
ing but collar buttons we would soon
have more collar buttons than could
be disposed of and the same thing IS
true of farming. Do not be misled-
every farmer must produce all Of the
corn, oats, hay, forage, wheat, strip,
Irish and sweet potatoes, vegetables,
milk, butter, fruit and all other prod
ucts of the soil first, to properly nour-
ish his own household, and, second, to
feed the outside world.
Distribution Usually to Blame.
"The trouble is not usually in over
production. Distribution is to blame
for most of the trouble, although of
course there is always the danger
that too many farmers viii manufac-
ture collar buttons, so to speak, when
they ought to be balancing the worlds
ration.
The bureau of markets has under
taken this problem-that is, to advise
so far as possible what to grow, but
the farmer is doing as he always has
done. If the price Of potatoes is high
in the fall he grows potatoes until he
gluts the market. Next year he grows
no potatoes, and the third year DO
tatoes are high again. The wise man
does not attempt to keep all of his
eggs in one basket.

same advice is given to farmers that

turers: You can't make a profit I'M

The first international labor con-
ference, provided for under the
treaty of Versailles, is to be held
at Washington, D. c., on October
20, it was announced by the state de-
partment yesterday. Unless America
has ratified the treaty by that time,
administration officials say, this coun-
try will be unable to participate IN
the conf 1rence.
1t is expected that there will be at
present at the Conference for each
country a representative of labor.
one for the employers, and two ap-
pearing as representatives of the peo-
pie. They will be accompanied by
experts who will sit at the confer
ence but will have no vote. The pro-
gram for the first conference Will
consist of the following four major
question:;
/. The application in each coun-
try of the principle of the eight-hour
dav. In the treaty all powers have
agreed to accept this principle.
2. The qeustion of state help to
remedy unemployment The treaty
of peace establishes the duty of each
member of the League of Nations
to provide for legislation to under
take remedial measures with refer
ences to unemployment. The con-
ference in October will discuss and
develop the definite laws which the
experience of all the world may sug-
gest.
