the dining room. Built along the lines
of the present day, in other words,
small and compact, 1t is only a few
steps away from the dining room, a
feature which means much to the
housewife who must serve the meals
in the dining room and carry them
from the kitchen.
The garage Is large enough to hold
two cars, being II by 10 feet @ inches.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms,
bath room and two storage rooms.
The essential feature of a farm home
is plenty Of with ample sleeping
quarters because the families are, as
a rule, large, and there must be space
for the help. This house has not been
neglected In this case, having six bed
rooms. The bedrooms on the upper
floor are about the same size with
the exception Of the one over the
garage which is rather long. This
bedroom Is not connected with the 9TH
err rooms on this floor.
Certainly II there were more homes
like the n shown here on farms in
many parts Of the country, the farmer
would not be worried over his help.
1t would be a prominent factor in
keeping his own sons satisfied because
it affords them all the comforts and
conveniences of a home in the city.
Home life Is essential to contentment.
If the home surroundings are made
attractive there will not be such a
strong desire to leave them. More
over a home Of this type is a real
blessing for the farmers wife. II will
do much in eliminating the ~drudgery
which Is so frequently found I'm homes.
Her share Of work, which Is at the
best considerable, can be lessened and
made easier, by homes of this caliber.
Washing machines and other appli-
ances have worked wonders In this
direction.
The home on the farm is too impor-
tant to be overlooked or passed over
1t should get the attention OF every
who will find his time and ef-
forts well spent.

IMPROVED
ROADS
ENTRANCE ROADS FOR FARMS
Engineers Of B~ureau,of Public Roads
Recommend Use Of Bituminous
Material.

Owners of large farms and rural
estates seeking a more satisfactory
type of entrance roads have applied
to the bureau Of public roads of the
United States department of agricul-
ture for advice regarding the applica-
ton Of bituminous material on main
entrance and m~uch-traveled farm
lanes.
The bureaus engineers point out
that such applications may be made
successfully on any farm road which
has already been constructed of stone,
gravel, or other similar material and
Is in a thoroughly c0mpacted and rea-
sonably smooth condition. A coal-tar
preparation applied cold, or an as
phaltic oil, can be used, and if applied
by the farm employees, the cost should
not exceed 7 or 8 cents a square yard
for materials. The compacted gravel
or stone road should be thoroughly
cleaned of dust and the bitumen
applied with ordinary sprinklins
pots from which the perforated nOz-
zle has been removed and the spout
carefully iattened into a symmetrical
rectangular opening about one quarter
of an inch wide, so that the material
may be poured in a broad, fiat stream.
If a large amount of work is to be
done, a specially designed pouring can
may be purchased of dealers in road
equipment. Care should be taken to
have an even distribution, and the
quantity, applied should be approx
mately one-half gallon to a square
yard OF road surface. After applying
the bituminous material, clean gravel
or stone chips should be spread even
ly owe the surface, and, If possible,
rolled with a lawn or field roller.
Where gravel or chips are not avail
able, clean, coarse sand will serve as
covering material. 1t should be spread
in sufficient quantity to prevent the
bituminOus material from adhering to
tires of passing vehicles. Attention Is
called to the fact that this treatment
should not be made where drainage

NEW ABSORBENT OF VALUE
Material Used During the World War
Put to Practical Use In Many
Industries.

A new type Of absorbent has come
into use for gas masks I'm chemical

Its efficiency was explained before

ert f. Wilson, director of the research
laboratory of applied chemistry in the
Massachusetts, Institute of Technology.
This material, known as soda-lime,
was extensively used as an absorbent
for poison gas during the World war.
Doctor Wilson, profiting by his pre-
vious extensive work on soda lime for
military purposes. made an intensive
study of the efficiency of this alb
sorbent against the various acid
gases used in manufacturing. As a
result, it was found that the soda lime

tanned far more caustic alkali than
