the Russian peasants in their variC
activities in these lands, and ha
come to regard him with respect
"How is it," one of the Russ
Interpreters was asked, That
though these peasants cannot re

master the intricacies of the r,

stand perfectly even the new ba
notes in which those marked

West Africa Experimenting
In Cotton Production

Cairo, Egypt, July 28.-Steady
progress is being made in the estab-
lishment of the Niger River Valley
cotton experiment station, located in
West Africa. The work is being done
under the auspices of the French col
onial authorities of Occidental Az
RIGA, who have selected DR.. Herbert
X. Forbes, former dean of the Col,
lege of Agriculture of Arizona, to
report on the proposed irrigation pro-
iect.
The French Consortium Committee
has allotted the money for the station
and definite installations will be be-
gun as soon as the credits are in
hand
Cotton seed and selection of cot
ton plants have been sent to the sta
tion from the United States and
Egypt. Cultivated lands in the vi
cinity of Kulikoro and Ell Ouabadji
on the Niger and Timbuktu and bor-
dering on French Senegal, are to be
used for the experimental work. The
first cultures will be given returns
dun ,n.; the winter of 1922-23 These
will be used to secure sufficient
stock of pure cotton seed for the
l923-24 season
The irrigation work contemplates
ultimately an irrigation dam SINH
lar to the Assouan dam on the Nile.
Temporary pumping stations to care
for the 1923-24 crop already have
been installed. Every means of pre-
venting cotton plant diseases and
worm invasions will be adopted

London Not Yet Ready
For American Skyscrapers

London, July 28.-The London
County Council has made some con-
cessions to the demand of West End
Business firms that they be allowed
to erect loftier and more commodious
stores, but these concessions fall far
short of permitting the construction
in London of buildings modelled af-
ter American skyscrapers.
"The concession as to height asked
for was 100 feet maximum on fav-
orable sites, explained the secretary
of the Retail Distributors Associa-
ton which had been the prime NOV
ers in the matter. we have been au-
thoriZed to put up buildings that are
so feet high to the ceilings of the
topmost floor, and on favorable sites
the municipality may permit build
:ngs to be erected that are 100 or
even 140 feet high.
1.-The London County Council has
conceded greater space for depart
ments. The old regulations restrict
ed cubic capacity to 100000 feet.
This was imposed because the old
fashioned methods of displaying new
materials in buildings of a congested
nature increased the risk of fire.
1.-The concessions of cubic capacity
of 100000 feet which has now been
made, or limit of 10000 square
feet floor space for any one depart
ment, will lenable us to secure floor
space equal to that of any of the
magnificent stores in America, with
one or two exceptions"
How far London is from having
attained the skyscraper stage will be
realized when it is understood that
the highest building in London is
Whitehall Court, the home of the
National Liberal Club, which is 10
feet high. The highest building in
the country is in Liverpool, and is
42O feet high to the top of the tow
er, but the actual main building is
only 2l0 feet high. The next highest
rs a steamship company building,
also in Liverpool, and is 14O feet
high.

Subways Under Sidewalks

Chicago, July H.-(By the Associ
ated Press). under Chi
cago sidewalks instead of under the
city streets is the plan proposed by
d. Chase Denison, Chicago .ivil en-.
gineer, who contends that such ar
Improvement could safely be bull, al
less than half the depth of the or.
tiinary type of underground railway
and at tenth of the cost.
Only small portion of such sub.
way systeE. as Chicago needs can be
built at the depth that would be nee
essary if excavation should be made
under the street proper, owing to the
expense, according to Mr.. Derison
who has submitted to U. S. Schwartz
chairman of the Chicago Council
Transportation Committee, a plan for
subway system ten or twelve feet
deep under the sidewalks instead of
20 to so feet deep uEder the streets
1t is understood that application has
been made to the United States pat
ent office for protection of the plan
which Mr.. Denison believes appli-
cable to other cities.
"The city of Chicago owns the
streets of the city including the side
walks up to the building lines" said
Mr.. Denison. "The city has the
right to lease the surface lines, the
space under the sidewalks for the
car lines. This space is now used, if
at all, chiefly by business houses for
coal holes.
"Such deep subway as funds
could be provided for would be in
adequate for present needs, whereas
a subway system built ten or twelve
feet deep could provide for the flu
ture. In ten or twenty-five years the
population of the city will be greatly
increased. At present we are twen-
ty-fve years behind the times in our
provision for traffic; most proposals
are designed only to catch up with
the growth that has already taken
place and are not far-sighted. A
deep subway would be but a tempo
rary makeshift.
"The sidewalk subway could be
built at tenth the expense of a
deep subway, in one tenth the time,
and could extend throughout the
city, as tentimes as extensive a sys-
tenn could be built for the same
money. In addition to it's economy,
the plan offers several advantages.
"In the first place, it would dis
pense with long stairs, inclines or
elevators which many people, espe-
cially during the rush hours, would
not and could not take.
"a deep subway is also dark; hard
to ventilate, and the noise is like the
inside of drum. 1t is also danger
Gus, and in case of accident a trap
for humanity.
"Under the new plan glass in the
sidewalks would supply most of the
light required in daytime; ventilation
could be arranged along the build
ings. 1t would work automatically,
the cars in motion forcing the air out
in front of them and drawing in
fresh air behind them by suction.
"The cars would take on and let
off people at every street intersec-
ton in the loop district and would
make three to five times the speed
made on the surface, run eight to
ten times more cars and carry as
many more passengers.
"The plan provides for such a rout-
ing of cars that no tracks would cross
each other on grade or above or be-
low grade, thus eliminating a cause
Of accidents"

New Realtor Company
Boon to Home Builders

OF real estate is in need of a different
service from the kind usually available
for him. Accordingly, backed by twenty
FIVE years of experience in the real estate
field, building business and practice OF
law, he founded the company OF which
he is the head.
1.-THE foundation Of our business Is
integrity and service" he said. 1T Is
our purpose to give willing, honest and
expert counsel and aid to our clients.
We realize that this Is the only true
basis of a permanent, honorable and
successful business.
Our speciality is the erection OF hlgn
grade, modern homes Of medium cost.
A novel part of our plan is that the own
err has full control Of the Job during
construction. We act as his expert coun-
sci and agent. The owner works hand
in hand with the builder in the selection
of all material, and is fully familiar
with its price and all terms surround
Ing the entire job. The owner may
change plans or specifications as the
work progresses at actual cost to him,
Instead of the customary extra charge
which Is out of proportion to the real
value of the changes made.
Acting for the owner and with him,
we effect every possible saving Tor MIN
and he at all. times sees all bills and
vouchers. We have found that this
policy Of working in conjunction with
the owner and strictly in his interests
has met an enthusiastic response
from prospective home builders, for we
certainly have been able to smooth the
rough spots In the road for them"

1.-THE demand for cars to be driven by
the renter has become very great In the
past few years and is steadily growing.
The average man can drive an automobile
now, and what Ia more he likes to do 1t.
BY our system the customer not only
has the pleasure OF handling the wheel
himself but he saves himself the ex-
pense Of R high grade chauffeur, which
Is a considerable item In the upkeep Of
rental cars.
we have a large demand not only
from local persons who do not care to
maintain a car themselves, but also from
travelling statesmen, representative Of out
side interests. business and professional
men who are IN indianapolis on business
affairs. Our system enables them to have
& machine at their disposal throughout
their visit here and at the same time be
Just as independent as II they were
handling their own automobiles.
The success of a business OF this
character depends entirely on the serv-
ice the customer receives, and we have
the plan worked out to a point where we
really believe that many persons prefer
TO rent our cars TO the Inconvenience and
trouble OF maintaining their own ma
chimes.
we are constantly adding new equip
ment and when spring opens up and the
really fine driving weather comes we
will be pushed to the limit to meet the
demands put upon us"
