Home builders are preparing for
busy season. Prospective home own
ers are actively engaged selecting the
plans for their new homes. This year
promises to be one of the greatest from
building standpoint, as the prices Of

second. Included with the rooms are
the conveniences found in the modern
home, such as toilet and Mushroom
on the first floor, a bathroom on the
second floor and plenty of closet room.
The entrance door opens off the
porch and into a vestibule, adjoining
which is a coat closet. To the left is
the living room that is larger than the
average-14 feet inches by IS feet.
This is a light, well-ventilated room,
and has an open fireplace in the out
side wall at the end. Back of the liy-
Ing room is large dining room, IA by
10 feet, with an attractive bay win
dow which will be just the place for a
window box. To the right of the din
ing room is the kitchen, also a corner
room, which insures good ventilation.
Between the kitchen and vestibule is a
hall, off which is the toilet and wash
room mentioned. Adjoining the kitchen
is a good-sized pantry.
An open stairway out of the corner
of the living room leads to the second
floor, which contains four good-sized
bedrooms, all Of which are on corners.
Between two Of the bedrooms is the
bathroom.
The basement extends under the
whole of the house, with the exception
of the porch. Here is plenty of room
for the heating plant and fuel; the
laundry equipment and storerooms for
fruits and vegetables.
In both exterior appearance and in
terror arrangement this is the type of
house that insures comfort for the oc-
cupants and exceptional value for the
money required to build it. Also. 1t is
the sort of house that will appeal to
the average family, which makes It
readily salable.

A Convenient Arrangement for Feed
ing Cows Which Saves Much Labor.
pectin pulp was fed the COW made
1868 pounds of milk and 1888 pounds
of fat. Although this test showed
that the pulp produced lat per cent
more milk and IL per cent more but
terfat than the corn silage, the re-
suits can not be considered conclusive.
In the second and more extended ex-
pertinent the pectin pulp was COM
pared with dried beet pulp, a feed that
1t resembles more closely than corn
silage. The 6 cows were fed for 80
days on beet pulp soaked with three
times its weight Of water, then, after
transition period of 10 days, they
were fed for 80 days on pectin pulp
soaked with a similar quantity of
water. The soaking was from one
feeding time to the next, but in warm
weather the pulp should not be
allowed to soak for more than one or
two hours. The pectin pulp contained
approximately per cent crude fat
(not all of which is true fat), z per
cent crude protein, and % per cent
crude fiber, as compared with O.5 per
cent crude fat, 8 per cent crude pro-
TEN, and 20 per cent crude fiber in
beet pulp. The two feeds are similar
In being able to absorb water readily,
The cows while on the ration CON
tanning the beet pulp produced 1865
pounds of milk and 171.S6 pounds of
butterfat; while on the pectin-pulp ra-
ton they produced 1887 pounds Of
milk and 1928 pounds Of fat. Forty
pounds of the wet pulp were offered to
each COW daily. The palatability Of
the pectin pulp did not appear to be
80 high as that of the beet pulp, since
the cows did not eat 1t so readily. It
seems that pound for pound of dry
matter the pectin pulp is superior to |
corn silage and perhaps intermediate |
the silage and beet pulp.
The loss of appetite for the pectin
pulp by some of the COWS may be at
.ributed to the fact that it was the
ess familiar feed and that the second |
est was conducted during the summer
when cows are more apt to tire Of
Iuch feeds.

Farmers Picnic Field Sports

The field sports given at the far

noon at Gentry field, drew a large
crowd and each event was exciting
and interesting. Promptly at 80
the program was opened, and from
that hour on till about $50 there
was something doing all the while.
Perhaps the most exciting combat
of all was the potato race on horse
back. Two teams Of FIVE mounted
on good steeds and armed with point
ell poles for spearing the potatoes
were opposed to each other. The
teams were from Blackhorse and
Rhea Greek. A box in mid-feld con-
tanned the potatoes and the riders
raced up to this box, speared their
potatoes and flew away to the goal
box placed at each side of the field
not an easy thing to do, but exciting
all the while. Rhea Creek won in
the count at the end of FIVE minutes

Presbyterians in
Big Increase, Say
Detailed Figures

Local Presbyterians are part of
an army Of 1,767,0 900, according to
figures on present membership based
on reports from most of the presby-
teries of the country. The official
figures will not be released for sew
eral weeks, but the above estimate
Is furnished by Rev. W. A. Roach,
pastor of the local Presbyterian
church.
This total, together with the fact
that the denomination has grown
about $4,000 during the past year,
was announced in connection with
the meeting of the General Assem-
bly, at Des Moines Iowa, the third
week of May. The number added
on confession of faith was 100000,
nearly 1000 every Sunday for the
denomination. Deaths and other
causes cut the net gain to $4,000.
= The total Sunday school member
ship is over 1,497,OO0, an increase
for the year Of G4,OO0. The local
school had part in this, increasing
the enrolment during the year ma
terially.
Benevolences for the denomination
Increased slightly, the total being
nearly double what it was three
years ago
The eVery-member canvass and
habit of Fresbyterians OF giving to
church support and to beneyclences
weekly under the stimulus of the
New Era movement is credited with
the big increase in gifts.
