10 is gratifying 20 know that the

Prof Irving Fisher of Yale explains
the reasons. The subject Is discuss

There Is. Il Is true. one tiny cloud

heard about the drop yet.
We found that out the other day
when a carpenter and builder in
whom we have implicit confidence
told us that II we didn't get the
house painted this spring II would
fall TO pieces before another year
had passed.
We didn't understand how paint
could hold a house together. but he
explained. Paint, # seems, 10 a
house, is like the cuticle 10 a hu.
man being. II keeps out germs
that would otherwise enter and
cause decay Also II would act as
a. protector Of the nails from rust
Permitted 10 rust, the heads Of the
nails would fall of. and they would
cease 20 function. Then the first
gale that blew would remove the
clapboards one by one and leave rs

ing the house fall down over our
heads. II is the only house we have.

planned and built IL ourselves. and
had all the neighbOrs in 10 help

So we called IN the local painters
and asked them for estimates. They
did little measuring, asked US
about color schemes and whether
the job included the blinds and
went away.
The next week we got the est
mates. I opened them, gave them a
hasty glance and observed 10 the

OF course, we could readily under

why Messrs. Sargent and Parrish
had gone into the house painting
business Even in the DAYS Of J. Z.
Morgan and Henry Clay FriCk they
never could have hoped Of getting
so much money for mere portraits
and landscapes But they were far
beyond our means so we decided 10
do the job ourselves.

RUSSIANS IN MOVE

Union of Intellectual Workers
Makes Appeal That Gets
British Support.

LONDON, June 5.-An appeal is
sued by the Union of Russian intel
lectuaI Workers, asking help and
support in their campaign 10 estab-
lish business and intellectual rela-
tons with Russia, irrespective OF the
existing (bolshevik) regime" has
met with hearty endorsement here.

his enthusiastic support, as against

Prof. Jacks, principal of Manches-

adjustment OF friendly relations be-
tween the Russian intelectuals and
corresponding classes in other cOun-
tries would be 1 result OF the great

Arnold Bennett agrees that intel

Car Showing Space

equipped car can be used several times,
as Is the case under arrangements in
Maine and other potato centers. The
lumber required for standard car 8
by 8h by SO feet, with doors feet
wide, Is as follows:
10 pieces by 4 inches by IA It. long.
8 pieces 2 by inches by 16 feet long.
1900 square feet Of 1-inch lumber l6 feet
long.
$3.50 square feet of building paper.
Place seven-foot studding around the
walls Of the car about three feet apart
with blocks behind so that there Is a
total air space of six inches at the
end and an air space on the sides
four inches at the top, spreading to six
inches at the bottom. Flooring should
be laid on two by six stringers set up
edgewise and run lengthwise Of the
car. 1t Is important that the spaces
should be left open at both ends so
that there Is perfect circulation of the
warm air. The flooring and sides
should be double, with building paper
between the thicknesses.
Air Should Circulate Freely.
The spaces between the studding
should be left open at the top and bot
tom. Do not make the mistake of
mailing strip across the end Of the
stringers toward the stove, as this
will prevent warm air circulation.
A special fire door Is necessary for
the car, with b hole for the stovepipe.
Railroads have special regulations for
the placing and securing of the stove.
The car should be heated for at least
six hours before loading, and longer In
extremely cold weather,
A suitable bulkhead Is to be built on
each side Of the door, to be put In
place as the potatoes are loaded. The
sacks of potatoes should not be piled
closer than eight inches to the ceiling
as circulation of air is essential. The
main principle of shipping potatoes
safely in heated cars is to secure per-
feet circulation of air completely
around the cargo. When the car is
fitted up In the manner described here,
the air flows over the top of the bulk
heads which, Of course. are left sew
eral inches from the ceiling. 1t cir
culates over the potatoes, the papered
ceiling preventing too much cooling
from the outside. and then comes down
to the end of the car and back under
the floor, some Of the air currents al
so flowing down the sides between the
studding.
AS cars thus equipped come more in
to use. better arrangements are being
made with railway companies for pre-
serving the equipment. In Maine the
potato cars with stoves are returned
to shippers free of charge, and In
western states the general rule Is to
return the lumber and stoves free.
Even where full freight rates are
charged on the return Of the equip
ment, the expense is reasonable when
compared with the loss which would
occur from shipping in unprotected
cars.

Most Of the 413,OOO, OO0-bushel crop
of potatoes harvested In the United
States will be shipped by rail, and
large part of 1t will go In box cars at
a time when the temperature Is below
freezing. These cars will remain ex-
posed to the weather for days at
time and even where refrigerator cars
are used the frost will permeate the
thick insulated walls. Experiences
show that to ship potatoes successfully
In winter artificial heat is necessary,
and In sections where the most pOta-
toes are shipped 1t has been found ex-
pedient to install stoves. Few rail
roads have yet come to the point of
heating produce cars. although 1t is
hoped that more will do so eventually.
Studied Car Heating.
At time when the conservation of

of car-heating arrangements for po-
