TOADOIOGICAI. LORE

Did you know the best bird on the
farm has neither feathers nor wings?
He is the common old American toad,
surnamed frog. He is positively HARM
less every way you may handle him.
The old belief that he produces warts
is unture. He works at nights and
if you will leave him a hole to get un-
der the house in day time he will re-
main there all day, but late in the
afternoon he will hop out and go to the
well where he drinks and when night
falls he goes bug hunting. If you
do not believe this put lantern
cut ard watch the frogs gather AROUND
K aid catch the bugs as they fall. H
is a good antidotc to many ailments.
Remembering my efforts in the first
legislature 10 protect the American
toad. the United State Minister to
Venezuila, South America, said to me
two years ago: 'By thr way, find

WHO WRECKS MARRIAGE"

If Il young roup.t can get thru t."
first five years of married life sue
cess; fully. ,hr marriage lik.l. 10
endure. Tiii is the opinion of
Judge Thnmn. +. Graham, famous
divorc" judge, rcputcd to have heard
more divorce cases than any other
Judge in America, and known as tie
Great Rcconcilcr." because Of bis
success in rcuniting cstranged couples
" 'Divorcritis' is Il disease Of mod
ern marriage" says Judge Graham.
More consideration on both sides is
suggested by Judge Graham as The
solution. Cleanliness OF home, body
and mind, an understanding on money
matters. the hanishmcnt Of jealousy.
and making a wife a pal, are some Of
the means Judge Graham suggests u
avoid the divorce courts.
THE trouble with so many Ameri-
can marriages is that they belong TO
the order of leap before you look ~
he continued.
81 think women are most to blame
for unhappy marriages. Women are
too much inclined to emphasize the
petty details of life. Very many
young women today believe that their
whole duty in life is to look pleasant
wear clothes well, spend husbands S
income. There were many more hap
py marriages in the pioneer days when
a man and a woman and their chill
drcn, not child-faccd life together,
all working together for the success of
the family, companions ar! friends 70
each other.
81 think that !c'r city would be
better for most marriage But prin-
ripa!ly. believe that mot wlvc@ hold
in their own hands the success, or
failure Of their own marriages

SHORTAGE OF HOUSES

Estimates placing the shortage Of
houses in America at more than l.
100000 will be placed before the Ma
tional Council of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States at q
meeting to be held in Washington,
January q and 2S which will discuss
measures to relieve the situation.
The housing shortage, according to
John lhldcr, manager of the National
Chamher's Civic Development Depart
mcnt. has reached n point where four
million persons are inadequatciy hous-
cd. Mr.. lhlder is helping in the pre-
raration of program for the con-
ference, which will bring rcpresen-
tativcs Of the 400 industrial and
commercial organizations making up
the National Chamber'., membership.
lie has made close study, Of the
housing problem.
For number Of years prior to the
World War, said Mr.. Ihlder today.
1T is conservativcly estimated that
there are erected in the United
States between 100000 and 400, 900
family dwellings in q year. This in
cludes homes and apartments. Dur
ing the war construction Of houses
was practically at stand still with
the exception Of what building was
done by the Government. As a re-
suit of this we came out of the war
far behind our regular building pro-
gram. The situation has not improv-
ed great deal since the signing of
the armistice except for brief squirt
early in 1919, because those who con-
templated building homes put it off
until prices should become stabilized.
"While it is true there are many
houses for sale, these are nearly all
now occupied by tenant. The num-
Der of houses for rent in most COM
munities is practically nil and the ma
Jority of these houses are not suitable
for the needs Of the average wage
Garner. A man with an income Of
$4,000 year or more doesn't have as
much trouble getting desirable quar-
ters as the wage Garner who cannot
afford to pay high rents. The wage
Garner and those earning small salar-
les are the one who are hit hardest
by the housing shortage. 1t is for
these folks that decent homes must L,.
built
Meanwhile they, as we'll as many
with larger incomes, are doubling up
or taking in dodgers. Increased rc,lt,
too have caused many families 20
share their quarters with outsiders. 80
we have the anomaly Of block or an
apartment house containing Il larger
number of pcoplc than it ever did in
the past, Yet with an occasional
hous" or an"rtment vacant, because
those needing better quarters can t
afford t" uay any higher r2rts. This
Overcrowding of rooms is viewed wit
anxiety by the public health off
cials who realize how infectious d.
seascs spread under such conditions

WHY TRADE IS SLOW

Unprecedented observers declare that
retail merchants have been slow to
take their losses in the financial de-
preston and slow trade resulted.
Farmers were hit hard but kept their
courage. They have been compelled
to buy carefully, but are good judges
of value and as soon as general COM
modify prices reach level that COM
pares favorably with the prices of
farm products, then they will buy with
their usual liberality.
The recent cuts in prices made by
implement manufactures as soon as
replacement costs could be estimated,
are excellent business stimulants, the
effects of which will reach far beyond
the merchant. They will affect the
manufacturer and all his helpers as
well as the material men from whom
he gets his supplies. Activity in one
line always extends it's good influence
to other lines and SO everybody will be
in step and general business pro-
sperity will prevail. AS the Ohio
Farmer says, prosperity is almost al
together a matter of everybody agree
ing to go ahead with business.
