HOME BUILDING FAULTS.

None of us like to be reminded of
our faults, but that isn't saying we
have none Of which we should be re-
minded now and then One of the
greatest faults in this community is
the general assumption that some
body else should provide the houses
which the hundred and one home
less families here need. Nobody
knowns exactly who should build but
somebody else, the need of the houses
money and father the enterprise. And
that somebody else never shows up.
While everybody is looking for that
somebody else. the need of the house
is still increasing
1t may be piece of bad news, but
We have reached the conclusion that
the philanthropist house builder will
never come. The man with means
will doubtless agree with you that no
community on earth needs more resi-
dences worse than Cordelc. He will
wish with all his power that some
good hearted person might come
along and set to work on about a
hundred nice bungalows with a rent,
al value of $500 to $500 month.
He will tell You that the investment
will be safe for life time-but he is
busy on other enterprises is giving
his longest, most serious thought to
the industry where he east his fortun-
es long ago. He wants no side line
not bad enough TO let up on his main
employment. He would thousand
times prefer to pursue the enterprise
with which he is occupied. 1t offers
so many charms that hc is well en-
crossed, He is playing satisfying
part in the effort to make his own
business pay him more.
You should get the impression from
this argument that nobody is going
to be as much interested in house
for you and your family as YOU should
be If you really need home for your
family, you are the person TO make
the start. 1t is part of your business,
not that of the man with larger means

Use Salt to Control FIeas

A great many inquiries are reach
ing the bureau of entomology, United
States department of agriculture, for
methods of controlling fleas. The
work of the department has shown,
fortunately, that the best means OF
controlling fleas in most instances is
very simple. Fleas usually originate
in the basement of the house, or in
some covered place such as wood
sheds and stables, to which hogs,
dogs or other such animals have &C
cess. The remedy is to give the base
ment, shed, or other breeding place
a thorough cleaning, burn the litter,
and then sprinkle the floor or ground
in the building or shed with common
salt. The salt should be sprinkled
thick1y enough almost to cover the
ground and should then be wet down
with water, the specialists say. 1t
should not be wet sufficiently to
cause it to run, however. If there are
about the place any houses, cribs, or
the like built on piles so that hogs
and other animals can go under them,
salt should be applied there. Gener-
ally speaking, it is fairly easy to de-
termine where the fleas originate,
and it is usually such place as can
be reached by the salt treatment. 1t
may be necessary to repeat the oper-
alton two or three times at about
three-day intervals.

Common Course of Market
DEPENDS LarueIV on Supply

The man engaged in either sell
ing or buying perishable produce
will do well to fami1iarize himself
with the usual course of the market
in such lines during a season. The
natural market course, according to
marketing experts of the United
States department of agriculture, is
somewhat as follows:
1t starts high with active move
ment even for inferior stock because
the demand has the sharp edge of
novelty and appetite. The price grad
ually declines and poor stock becomes
harder to sell as the supply increases.
Lowest prices arrive soon after the
heaviest shipments begin, and a glut
may occur, especially if many sec
lions are shipping at once and there
is much poor stock. Then, with -
sometimes recovering much of the
early decline, but usually not reach
ing the opening prices because de-
mand is far less keen at the end of
shipments are inferior, as happens
frequently with many perishable
crops, the season may close at or
near bottom prices.

developments do not always take

frequently superior quality of the
main crop or absence of general COM
petition will bring higher prices in
mid-season. I'm expected shortage
may cause the reserve stock in stor-
age to sell at high prices at the
close of the season, especially the
less perishable crops like potatoes,
onions, apples, cabbage, etc. Careful
study of crop, shortage, supply, and
shipment should enable fairly good
judgment to be made of the outcome
However, quickly perishable short
season crops like Strawberries or
melons are very irregular, so it is
difficult to form a reliable market

The thing which the United States
Department of Agriculture empha-
sizes is the urgent need of keep
counts. The elaborateness of the
records will depend upon what the
farmer wants to know, and the
time he has available for keeping
accounts. The department will be
glad to suggest a system which
will enable him to figure his income

as a whole is making. 1t can also
suggest a system which will en-
able him to determine approximate
production costs on his farm. For
others. particularly owners of very
large farms, the Department of Ag-
riculture is prepared to recommend
a detailed cost accounting system
which may require the services of
a bookkeeper. For the men engaged
in production on a large scale such
a system will supply invaluable in
