TO FARMERS THERE
is NO DECREASE
IN COST OF LIVING

Frank Heiser, well known farmer of
The town of Sigel, has taken exception
to the general impression that the
cost of living is on the down grade
and to prove his theory has presented
a list of figures to show that his con-
tention is right. The farmer is the
loser by the present drops, Mr. Hell
ser says as he claims the cost of ma
chinery for the operation of the farm
are still up and the prices they are
receiving for their commodities are
going down fast,
Compares Machinery Prices
Comparing the price of machinery
in 1919, when prices were supposed
to have reached the crest of the tidal
wave, with the prices on the same ma
chinery in 1921, Mr.. Heiser says that
the prices now are much higher. A
potato digger which was SIS in 1919,
he says, is now $3.50, while manure
spreader has jumped from $115 to $3.50
in the two years. A wagon was $45
in 1919 he says and is now 800; now
ers jumped from $50 to SS5; binders
from s125 to $240; plows. $1S to $35;
drag. IS to $22; sleigh, $50 to SIS;
SteueT, POO 10 piV, Wnlle tue taxes oh
his own farm had gone from $79 to
$144.
Income Goes Down
In spite OF these advances. Mr..
Heiser says the farmers income has
gone down and to show how much he
has lost, Mr.. Heiser has presented
some figures showing that wool which
in 1919 brought rs cents a pound now
brings Is cents; pork dropped from
22c to &c; beef from 1Sc to 10c; sheep
from 15c to &c; hides from 23c to &c;
potatoes from $1.00 to 36c; veal. 22c
to 10c; oats s1.00 to 45c; rye, $3.50 to
s14s; corn. 75c to 40c: wheat. $500
to. s1.60; clover seed. S0c to 12c.
The figures which Mr.. Heiser pre-
sents are his own and are not verified
by the Tribune, but according to him
he has investigated the costs and they
are correct, he says.--Wood County
Tribune.

DEMAND FOR HOMES
PROMISES ACTIVITY
IN BUILDING TRDAES

Wausau may be a city of homes, but
just at present there are some people
who claim it is city without homes"
without available ones. Real es-
tate men declare so scarce are rented
properties of every description that
people are no longer listing them.
Instead rumor spreads the fact that
properties are available and, presto
the next minute they are disposed of.
Leases are being sought and pur-
chased and there seems mad rush all
the time for desirable residences.
This acute shortage exists not only in
the field of homes, for stores and ma
nufacturing concerns are cramped
They have not built and they cannot
expand into completed buildings be-
cause these don't exist.
whats going to be the result of
this? How do your contractors stack
up in regard to work for spring."
Pilot reporter asked several of the
yesterday The invariable answer
was I'VE are going to see a fifty
per cent, perhaps more, increase in
building activity during 1921 over 1920.
Materials and costs of labor have both
uecTeaSeu duu THESE ldCtOTS are sOiIlB
to be great encouragement to many
persons TO do the work they have
planned for the past three years or
longer" Estimators declare that
house costing $4,000 last year can now
be erected for $4,000. The cost of
materials for interior decoration has
decreased averagely forty per cent,
and lumber. lath. shingles and other
materials have decreased about thirty
per cent
An inquiry was received at The
Pilot only Tuesday asking for a list
of rooms or apartments for rent. The
family expects to move to Wausau in
a short time. If there are any de-
sirable places available. The Pilot will
be glad to furnish the address of the
party.

MODEL SIX-ROOM HOME
BEING BUILT WITHIN SCHOOL

oldest being a local millwright. aged
81.
Six Courses
Seven hours is the time spent at
work by the students of the institu-
ton in all of the six courses. the Ma
chine Shop, Cabinet Making, Sheet
Metal, Federal Board, Domestic Sci
ence and Drawing. A majority of the
students, however. spend eight hours
week at study and the remainder of
the time are employed by. local con-
Germs.
The millroom which is equipped
with every kind of wood working ma
chinery, is as complete as any in Wis
consin, according to Mr.. Holm, and
just across the hall is bench room.
Many conveniences have been con-
trived by the students themselves to
assist them in their work. A lumber
heater, electrically operated, contains
eighty wires and does it's work effec-
lively and rapidly. AT present the
students are making a lumber steamer
Of simple character but which will
serve them satisfactorily.
The machine shop department is
equipped with $4,000 worth of ma
chinery and students do work which
is of practical value. Every attempt
is made to correlate the work of the
drawing room and the machine shop,
SO that very frequently boys make
their own drawings and then later
work the drawings out in the machine
shop. To assist machinists, mathe-
matics class is held each afternoon.
The tool room is soon to be turned in
to an addition to the machine shop and
one of the new features to be added is
Stewart Blast Furnace for the tenn
pering of steel and. case hardening.
Saves Money
The machine Shop has saved the
city an outlay of considerable money
since its installation. Recently some
twelve vices were needed by the Lin
coin school. These sell on the market
for $1,000. Made by Vocational school
students their actual cost was $400
apiece. The woodworking department
has also served and about $3.50 was
saved recently when thirty-siX school
chairs were made.
Among the additions to the Facilities
the school now posses are a. foundry
which will enable casting in plaster
paris, a reading room for the use of
students during the noon hour, and a
further development of both sheet me-
tai and plumbing departments. Many
other desired extensions are in mind
but cannot be carried out for some
time to come A forge is now in oper-
alton in the basement.
Academic work must be taken by
every Vocational school student. and
those attending the school during the
day spend two hours in this depart
ment.
Instructors
The instructors in the Vocational
school are as follows: Eiffel A. Holm,
director; c. P. Schlitz, machine shop;
Fred Steinke, sheet metal and draw
ing; George Ronek, cabinet making;
Miss Emma Kummerow, academic; /;
Miss Louise Bates, sewing; Miss Hell
ser, home nursing; Miss Beatrice
Jones, cooking and home making.
One of oun well known citizens de-
clares that not only is splendid work
being accomplished in the Vocational
school by the instructors but that the
students are displaying an unusual
interest in their work and are full of
zeal in their efforts to improve in
workmanship and increase in know
ledge.

CHRISTMAS IN
PORTO RICO
MISS RUTH MOODY, FORMER
TEACHER, DESCRIBES
EXPERIENCES

Miss Ruth Moody, former teacher
in the high school, recently wrote a
letter to a Wausau friend, describing
the way in which she spent her Christ
mas vacation in Mayaguez, Porto Rico,
where she is teacher in the School
of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts
The following interesting descriptions
OF her Christmas experiences. The
Pilot takes pleasure in publishing:
christmas Eve is called 'Noche
Beunde, GOOD Night and everyone
sits up, and the people are on the
streets all night. A big dinner is
served at midnight. We went first to
call upon Mrs. Alemar The family
is American; so Santa Claus came
there. lThe Three Kings come to Por-
to Rican children on January 81. The
tree was shapely but the leaves were
I'of siciSly greens Mrs. Alemar served
us a plate on which were dates,
pruaes, raisins, kind of cracker and
Spanish candy. :.
Christmas Dishes
From Alemar's we went to the home
OF Isabel Grant. She insisted that we
have supper. We had pastales, great
Christmas dish made of banana paste
or of corn meal or rice. There are
three kinds but all contain chicken.

thinks of also ate bread and lie

thing else under the sun on the table.

come in bricks like ice cream and are
Eonly little harder. One kind is made
of ounces.
1T was almost twelve when we
reached the home of the Picos. They
have car so we rode along the beach
in the moonlight and it was just like
day. | wore my white Swiss dress and
little pink silk scarf
When we returned to the house,
the older members were at dinner but
could not eat a mouthful 1t was
long after midnight then, very nearly
two O'Clock. We admired one anoth-
ler's presents and then went to bed.
TT all seemed very Christmasy even
though it is warm.
Serenading
About four | woke up hearing the
greatest noise. Right in front of my
window was a crowd yelling and
lpounding on pans and on skin
stretched over barrel. | got a little
| frightened, for after pounding about
ten minutes they held consultation
and then redoubled their efforts for
| five minutes. | thought they were
coming right over the balcony but
they finally went off yelling, 'Vive. Don

and Dona Sofia are my host and host

saw men and women standing on the
streets, laughing and yelling.
THE day went most rapidly.
slept all the afternoon In the even
ing some of the young people got up
a dance. Several of my college boys
were there. To furnish the music we
had mandolin. an accordian, and a
guitchero. A guitchero is made from
kind of long gourd, followed out. 1t
is carved in ridges and is played with
fork. The dance closed my Christ
