they would like to stop at :icwfOund-

public here today the official log of the
worlds greatest airship on It's voyage
from East Fortune. Scotland .tc Mincola.
The story OF the flight follows, in part:
"l:42 a m. Wednesday. July 1.-The
R-34 slowly arose from the hands Of the

possibly on account OF the darkness.
there is always feeling OF loneliness
Immediately after leaving the ground.
The loneliness Of this occasion was &C
centuated Zy the faint cheers Of the
landing party coming upwards through
the>mist long after all signs OF the earth
had disappeared.
TT should be borne in mind that when
an airship sets out on long-dtstance
voyage, carrying her maximum allow
ance Of petrol she can only rise to
limited height At the outset without
throwing some Of il overheard az ballast
and that as the airship proceeds on her
voyage she can, il 50 desired. gradually
increase her height rs the petrol Is con-
sumed by the engine.
IAN airship of this type. when mast
OF her petrol is consumed. can rise to
a height Of about 1900 feet.
For this reason the next few hours
were one Of the most anxious periods
during the flight for Major Scott. IN"

MANY WORKMEN DESIRE HOMES
 OF THEIR OWN
Government Is Encourag- ing Building of More
 Homes This Year.

Workmen and employers in al! parts of the country are much in terested in the plan of the Depart 1 ment of Labor to encourage home building and home owning. The In. formation and Education Service of the department from the Govern ment committees established in in- dustrial plants designs to aid men who wish to own their own homes.
 Keep industry going and have working conditions pleasant, so that a man may be willing to remain per- manently in his present employment. A home is the first thing a man wants after he has good steady pos- ition," is a suggestion i'll Kansas City letter to the Department of La- bor. Guarantee against unemploy- ment; pay adequate wages to insure paying for home; make longtime loans through Federal reserve banks. Industrial workers should be given the same privileges as rural workers" 7" reads letter from Columbus, Ohio. 1 Many suggestions urge that the Government build homes, under the supervision of the Department of La bor, or that it take an active part in financing home building. There are many suggestions that the Govern ment furnish plans for small homes One man urges Government building and loan associations in every city of 100000 or more population, to loan money to prospective builders.
 A Pennsylvanian on the other hand gives the names of three banking ln- stitutions in his home town as the best means of encouraging home build ing.
 A Detriot manufacturer suggests: Organize building and land com pany; money to be subscribed by in- dustrial corporations; land to be pur- chased near plants with employees needing housing: houses to be built according to the building code, and to be sold at low rate of interest, on monthly payments, in keeping with employees wages"
 "The best plan l know of is to let the building contractor keep on build ing homes. The home buyer fares better than if he builds for him self" is a suggestion from Philadel- phia.
 Government loans for home bulld- ing, just as loans are made to farmers and assurance that there will be no in justice to labor in the reconstruc- ton of business will, with coopera- tion between employers and employees whereby the latter may be encourag- ed and aided in home building, do much to solve the problem, Maine man believes.
 "Start a mutual building and loan association with shares limited to each member. Have weekly dues paid in on shares, and when sufficient money, is raised to build houses on owens lots and let the purchase price be paid

as rentals. This plan secures the
 home, with little expense, and the
 home is occupied while paying for it. /"
 This suggestion comes from Michi-
 gan.
 A building and loan association, help from the employer, and the sell ing of homes on the installment plan,
 are suggestions that figure id many
 letters. Cooperative bank financing
 and methods whereby workmen can start home accounts with their conn., panies, are also urged.
 "We expect to build some homes and sell them to our employees on
 easy and satisfactory terms" Writes one employer, who is adopting prac- tical method. Lend money to de-
 serving men without interest; keep
 up the price of labor and reduce the
 price of goods; show workmen that it is good investment to own their own homes," is another suggestion which comes from an employer. Many expressions of appreciation for the aid fthe information and Education Service is giving home builders through the Government committees have also been received.

ONE PIG BRINGS SMALL FORTUNE
 TO LITTLE GIRL
,(By Helen Robo ago 13)

.(By Helen Bobo, age 13) ----
 bought a pig from my uncle when 1t was ) weeks oldand paid $5 or it. 1 brought it home and put it in a pen. At first I fed it table scraps and sweet milk for about one month while l was weaning it TO mits moth- CT. By that time the bermuda and clover pasture was green and 1 made a little wire pen that I could move. When she ate the grass where the pen was l would move it to another place, and kept this up until she got so large that the pen would not hold her. Then I turned her out in the pasture but still fed her table scraps, butter milk and very little grairl. By this time she was about six months old. After the potatoes were dug We turned her in the potato patch. She grew to be very large hog and weighed about two hundred pounds. On January the twentieth she brought a litter of nine red pigs, she being on- ly ten months oldst But it was zero weather so they all froze to death. But the following May she brought litter of eleven pigs. They all lived except two which fell in a post hole. l. sold them for $8 apiece at six weeks old and they amounted to $72. In the following November she brought an other litter of thtrten fine healthy pigs. l sold thesAf for ten. dollarsd apiece. l sold four and kept the rest for our own use. In all have made $112. She was two years old the thirteenth of this March and weighs about 400 pounds. I have been member two years and have joined again this year
