STORE COTTON AID STOP LOSSES

Clemson College, October Tt is
estimated that cotton growers in
America are losing every year about
$30,O00,000 from weather damage to
cotton left unstored and unsheltered
The estimate is conservative, for every
bale left in the open ,oses enough
picking" to represent $3.50. Great
er losses are frequent.
An instance that is not far from
typical concerns bale that was left
exposed to wind and weather for six
months. The bale lost 76 pounds,
which at 20 cents is $17.48. South
ern farmers are urged to store their
cotton and stop this unnecessary
and inexcusable waste.
There are now licensed and bond
ed warehouses under the United
States Warehouse Act, in which cot
ton can be stored and receipts ia
ken, these receipts being good for
cash at banks. Such storing of cot
ton carriers cheap insurance and
good service.
But, whether stored In govern
ment warehouses or not, cotton
should be protected. There are
commercial warehouses available,
and it is possible for farmers indi-
Sidually or comparatively to have
privately owned storage facilities at
reasonable cost. Store your cotton
now.

In spring young mans fancy NAV
turn to thoughts of love, but to the
man of family, after a winter of more
or less discomfort in his old house,
barren of many of the modern con-
veniences, thoughts of a new home
are more engrossing. During the win
ter evenings that new home that has
been in contemplation for several
years now has been discussed by the
whole family and many ideas Of what
That home should be, both as to exs
terror appearance and interior ar.
rangement and Of what materials it
should be built, have been advanced.
However, the head of the family
the man who provides the money
for the new home-is the man who
has the last say. To him there en-
tiers the idea of practicability, cou-
pied with cost. He is in favor of
the new house; in fact, has decided
to build, but to him there are things
of greater Importance than a nook
here and an angle there. There is

the question of how he can get a
good, substantial, comfortable and
convenient home for his family, if he
be city man, or his family and the
hired help, if he be farmer, for
the amount of money he has avail
able for the house.
To such a man, the house shown
in the accompanying illustration will
appeal. For here is combined all of
the things that a practical city or
town man or farmer wants in his
home-convenience in arrangement
of rooms, provision for the things that
will make the work of the house
keeper easier, and house that ex-
ternally will compare with the best
Of them in that community.
Cutting the Corners.
Corners cost is an axiom among
contractors and builders. The
straighter the walls, the less expen-
sive the building. The house shown
herewith is a substantial building,
with no frills, and at the same time
is good to look at.

The two bedrooms in the center of

upstairs also has a closet.
This is substantial home that

house. There are no frills about it,
/ yet it is an attractive appearing house
and one in which all the modern farm
cOnveniences, running hot and cold

and electric system, the cost Of put

will be small, but they will add
much to keeping the boy and girl
on the farm and making the work in
the house as easy as it now is in
the modernly equipped barn.

err and lumber and material dealer
will soon disclose the cost of such
home, either in town or on the

The house contSins ten rooms ana
bath, six bedrooms providing sleep
ing accommodations for at least that
many persons. Five of the bedrooms
are on the second floor and one on
the first floor.
The front entrance door opens into
a hall 4 by 10 feet. To the left

right through double glazed doors lis
the living room. Being the gathering
place of the family, this room is
large, II by 10 feet. At one end is
an open fireplace with spaces for

i9y The dining room is Immediately

The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1919-03-21

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. T. j.
Perkins of Bennington, on the Yerkes
farm, was considerably damaged by
fire Friday morning. 1t is believed
that the fire had been smouldering in
the roof for several hours when it was
discovered at about 10 o'clock. A
bucket brigade was formed and did eff
ficient work in extinguishing the
flames. Two large holes were burned
in the roof. c. S. Baldwin, a men,
Der of the bucket brigade, was seized
with an attack or heart trouble, the re-
suit of over exertion, and for time
was in a serious condition.

Query have 4 quantity Of old paint
On hand. Can use 1t for the first coat In
repainting my barn?
Answer.-On no account should old
paint which has become fat be used
for printing either old or new work.
Old paint in that condition Is best used
on a fence, brickwork or tinwOrk. II
you value your barn sufficiently to
paint 1t, do 1t the justice Of good job.

Query-what do you think of paint as
an investment. astie from the sppsarsnss
1t lends? Does 1t really PAY to paint .
house regularly. say. every three or four
years?
Answer.-Good paint properly APP
piled when needed 10 the main thing In
making a house last long and well. A
house worth $500 can be painted at a
cost Of about $125. In 90 years that
house will need about IS paintings,
the total cost Of which will be 81 ,895
Left without paint, such house would
fall into complete ruin in 30 years. So
taking 60 years as a basis for our ny
ures we find that with paint a home
will last that time in good condition
and will cost, plus paint, $4,37o. With
out paint the house would have to be
rebuilt at the end of 80 years and
would be ready for another complete
renovation when the sixtieth year ar
rived. Cost, without paint, $4,000 for
a home ready to fall to pieces. Does
regular painting payl As the old
Dutch adage says:

QUE STIONN ARE
ANSWERS WHICH WILL SOLVE
PERPLExiNG PROBLEMS OF
THIS RECONSTRUCTION ERA.

Query.-The government has launched
an educational campaign to encourage
building In order to put more men t.
work. Would not a similar movement ia
show how the old structures can be best
and most economically repaired and made
good as new also help?
Answer.-It is learned that such a
plan is in effect and IS linked directly
with the Washington propaganda.
Industry must be turned back from
works Of war to the ways of peace.
Employment must be found, In the
meanwhile, for those whose occupa-
ton has been interrupted. There Is no
real surplus of labor In the United
States. Rather there is shortage,
which would be acute If normal condl-
ditiOns were already restored, and one
step towards restoring them will come
with resumption Of repair work.
Government restrictions, imposed by
the necessities Of the war program,
have for many months past retarded
or altogether prevented construction,
Improvement and repairs. These re-
strictiOns are now OF, and there is
scarcely town, a city, factory, a
dwelling or farm that does not reveal
crying need for prompt attention.
Nothing delays such instant action eI-
cept the feeling that prices are high
for the time being and may be lower.
That is not logical. No matter what
1t costs to repair, the cost is less than
the cost Of neglect. Ne matter what
the cost Of paint, the wind and the
weather will collect a higher bill in
deterioration and decay.
