Lumber Demand
Continues Brisk
Bookings of Orders Are Lin.
tied to Capacity to
Ship.

The demand for lumber continues
cannot take all the business offered
to them. It is impossible to, say ex-
actly how large the demand is" ac-
cording to the American Lumber
man. Bookings are limited to the
ability to ship. and inasmuch as
most manufacturers have good
sized order files and are getting
very few cars, the volume of new
business which can be accepted Is
very limited. In the South particu-
larly car shortage is being keenly
felt. many mills not receiving in
excess of 20 per cent of the number
of cars needed. While on the Pacific
Coast the car shortage is severe.
the mills are able to ship more stock
largely because they use the water
route to the Atlantic Coast. Some
Southern pine producers who never
before shipped by water are be-
ginning to do so.
Retail lumbermen as a rule re-
port good business, though here and
there slumps have been occasioned
by cessation of manufacturing ac-
tivIties brought about by the fuel
shortage. Alert retailers are lay
ing plans to push aggressive cam
paigns this fall for the sale of storm
doors and sash. which when proper
ly fitted materially cut down the
consumption of coal. and this
winter can help people combat the
fuel shortage. Lumber prices" ac-
cording to the American Lumber
man. remain firm with here and
there an upward tendency"

AUTUMN IS time
TO DOCTOR GARDEN
Attention to Sail Now Will
Yield Results Next II
Summer.

One of the many pleasures Of
home ownership. especially during
the month of October. is found in
the garden. October Is one OF the
busiest months for those home own
ers who happen to possess gardens.
The practical outdoor enthusiast
will have TO WOO his kitchen gar
den earnestly and persistently VI
this time If he wants success. For
the garden is a coquette at heart.
and may smile enchantingly the FIRST
year only to jilt the gardner shame
fully next spring, unless proper at
tention is paid her this autumn.
There will be weeds to clean up,
which should be burned. unless by
chance the seeds have not ripened,
In which case they may be carted TO
the compost heap. The asparagus
bed should be cut in the latter part
of the month and burned and a good
coat of manure put on. Or a new
asparagus bed may be started at this
time in case the old one is giving
out. That Is a task which involves
considerable work and must be done
very carefully. The reward is that
welI-set bed will last Is or 20
years. Asparagus Is a gross feeder
and the land can scarcely BE too
rich: in the small kitchen garden II
spot on one side of the plot should
he selected where II will not inter-
fere with the plowing of the garden.
The old-fashioned idea was to have
asparagus beds, but today the usual
custom is to plant il in rows as one
plants corn or rhubsrb. and for a
modest sized family a row rs or 100
feet long should be ample.
The roots OF asparagus take kind
ly to a moist, cool soil. and their
habit Is to run horizontally rather
than perpendicularly. The plant
should be set deep. double-trench-
ing the furrow (Which should be
about ten inches deep) in which they
are to be set, working in a heaIy
coating of manure. The crown of
the plants when set should be COW
cred with fine. loose earth, or old
compost, to a depth of two or three
inches As the plants grow the
trench or furrow is gradually filled
so that the trenches of the plants
set out in the spring should be filled
by autumn. Three feet apart is the
rule for setting plants.
Rhubarb roots may also be set out
now, or, where one has an estab-
lished bed which needs attention
the roots may be lifted. divided and
reset in a new. well-prepared bed
Small fruits. such as Strawberries
| raspberries. blackberries, currants
and gooseberries may be purchased
and set out now with advantage
Their canes should be cut back Wig
orously when the planting is done
and. in the case of a small garden
a bed along the fence makes an eN-
cellent place for them. Be sure
however. to provide plenty of ma
nure and see that the soil is in a
good state Of tilth before setting ou,
the fruit canes and bushes.

GOTHAM ELECTRIC
SHOW OPENS TODAY
Museum of Edsonia Will Be
One of Most Unique
Features.

Disclosing the result of forty
years effort in finding new tasks
for that never complaining servant
-electr. .city-New York's fifteenth
annual electrical show will open
today at the Grand Central Palace
The show will continue afternoon
and evening until next Saturday
Not only will the show tbs year
include exhibits of the latest cleo
trio appliances for use in the in
dustry, but there will be a remark
ably Interesting display of stOric
electrical apparatus. This will be
shown in the Museum of Edisonia
and will include primitive labora-
tory generators, experimental in
candescent lamps and other devices
used by Thomas A. Edison forty
years ago when he invented his
central stat on lighting system.
The three exhibition floors of
the Grand Central Palace will be a
blaze of light and the 100 exhibition
booths will be especially decorated
in honor of Edison's great INVENTION.
By means of model apartments
the use of new electrical devices
for housekeeping will be demon
strated. A laundry will show the
easiest way of washing, ironing
and drying clothes: a kitchen will
have the latest electrical aids to
the culinary art: a living room will
disclose all the comforts of cleo
trical table cookery and a pantry
VII show how the drudgery has
been taken out of dish washing
Besides those model apartments
there will be spec: al exhibits by the
various manufacturers.
The Industrial exhibits will show
how electricity is used in printing,
envelope working, candy cooking,
soap wrapping. cigar manufacture.
elevator operation, soda bottling
and water ster.lization, tool max
ing and in the preparation of
dairy products.
The various types of electric
trucks. passenger cars and indus
trial trucks will be demonstrated
and on Tuesday there Will be an
electric truck parade with more
than 100 trucks in line. Radio will
make up another important section
Of the show with exhibits by TWEEN
ty-two manufacturers and dealers
in wireless equipment.
The radio telephone, however. has
by no means crowded the CONNER
cial telephon out of service, as a
demonstration by the New York
Telephone Company will prove.
For the purpose OF showing tele-
phone users just what goes on be-
hind the scenes in a telephone Of
fice the company has set up a sec
tion of switchboard by means of
which the whole system may be
studied.

For Maximum Service
To Be Studied.
PLAN FEDERAL. AID
u. S. Will Help in Maintenance
Of 100000 Miles Through
out Country.

The Highway Education Board.
composed of government officials
and executives from industry in
terested in the education of the
highway engineer. have sent out a
call for a national conference of
leading educators. State highway
oficials, highway engineers, motor
car producers and others, to be
held here October rs to IS. Con-
ference headquarters will be the
New willard Hotel.
The prime purpose of the confer
ence. as set forth by DIR. John j..
Tigert. U. S. Commissioner of Edu-
cation. chairman of the board, is
to discuss methods of educating the
highway engineer in order that he
may render maximum service to
the State and nation in the con-
struction Of suitable and durable
roads at minimum expense. This.
il is believed can be accomplished
only through a campaign of educa-
ton.
Plan Federal Aid.
Government and State officials are
now planning a system of Federal
aid highways covering the entire
United States and including 100000
miles of the most important roads
in the country. The need for trained
engineers to build this mileage is
urgent. and it is the purpose of the
conference to discuss all phases of
the highway engineers educarrou
with a view to aiding schools of
engineering in providing the most
useful coursese of training possible.
The highway engineer of today
Is virtually a new product of the
rapid growth OF motor transport
and the resultant necessity Of suit
able highways. Road building In
the United States is progressing.

According to official figures re-

were built by local authorities and
public utility societies and 1855
houses were built by private build

In addition there were. on July 1.
1922. 35.971 houses still under con-
struction by local authorities and
public utility societies, and state
aid had been authorized for the
construction of 1922 other houses
not yet begun. The health minis
try estimates that the capital cost
of the assisted housing schemes,
when completed, will reach 190.-
100000 pounds.
In June 66,651 workmen were
employed in building houses the
