RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES
WORTH SIS, 600 ARE SOLD
Five Sites Exchange Hands in
Sales Reported by One
.Concarn.

Announcement of the sale of five
| residential properties was made today
by the firm of Boss & Phelps. The
value of the premises totaled $4,000.
Alfred P. Thorn. jr., purchased a

This house is detached. of frame con :
struction: and contains nine rooms
and two baths.

of their undertaking in all its details.
which are many. and hope to intro
duce it into practice in the near 'fu-
ture.
One of the deficiencies of the lum-
Der business that 1t is hoped to rem
edy by a system of simple. uniform
and unvarying grades is the mis-
sional buyers by the nomenclature
of the present grades. The unac-
customed buyer thinks that IL he
buys "A" or NO. 1" lumber he is
getting the highest quality. Proba-
bly,, bly, he MAS. WAS fifty years age but since
grades. such as select. fancy, prime.
etc. have been erected above "a"
and r. to meet new conditions of
demand and manufacture. AS about
40 per cent Of all lumber is In grades
above "a it is obvious that the anna
teur buyer is disappointed when he
examines his purchase.
Guarantees Against Substitutes.
Another shortcoming that will be
eliminated through the branding of
the grade on each stick and board
at the mill is that INSCRIPTIONS deal
ers will not be able to substitute an
inferior for superior grade. which
is rather easy trick under present
grading. shipping and selling condi-
tions. Another feature contributing
to the maintenance of integrity of
transactions in the lumber business
will be the requirement that every
shipment of lumber must have at
tached a complete tally of pieces by
grade
While carpenters. builders. con-
tractors and dealers are accustomed
to present intricacies and complex
ties of grades. dimensions and trade
practices generally, and have little
difficulty in adjusting themselves to
them. II is different with the general
public. About 80 per cent of the
entire lumber production of the
United states is taken by the farm
ers. but. as a rule, no individual
farmer does enough buying to famil-
iarize himself with grades. with the
result that farmers often buy too
good a grade for some purposes, re-
ceive too low a grade for others and
are sometimes deliberately imposed
upon.

ELECTRIC AGENCY
IN INDUSTRY TOPIC
Its Part in National Develop
ment and Construction
Stressed at Convention.

The part to be played by the cleo
trfcal industry in the national de-
Velopment and construction program
was outlined this week at the annual
convention in Atlantic City of the
National Electric Light Association
The Potomac Electric Power Company
Of this city sent half a dozen delegates
to take part in the deliberations.
Four thousand leaders of the cleo
trical Industry. from all parts of the
United States and some from other
countries. attended the five-day meet
ing. which concluded yesterday.
Substance of Reports.
Reports from electrical men in va
rious sections of the country were to
the effect that demands for industrial
power are increasing. which is~re-
garded as a sure indication of i'm
proving business conditions. 1t was
stated that at least $780, 100000 must
be spent by the electrical industry In
the next twelve months to meet de-
mands for increased service
Standardization and elimination OF
waste in industry were among the
main topics discussed. The associ-
alton is working in conjunction with
Secretary Hoover's program along
these lines. Superpower projects, to
tie the electrical resources of the
nation together into powerful dis
tiiuulius Sloups, cicClTINCatfOu Oh
the farm. national water power de-
velopment and the fuel situation OF
the nation were among matters con-
sidered by the delegates.
Among the reports received was one
which set forth the necessity of main
tanning the electrical industry on a
high standard of efficiency and pro.
duction from the standpoint of ma
tional defense. This came from the
committee now collaborating with the
ONCE of chief Of engineers of the
United States Army in collecting cleo
trical information which would be OF

These trees will be transported by

Electrical development in rural re-
gions came in for considerable atten-
ton. 1t was forecast that farming
will follow the course of the many
industries which already have become
electrified. Lighting of country high
ways also has become an important
development. Interesting adaptations
of uses of electric lighting in con
trolling trafic in large, cities were
described and a program of accident
prevention and health promotion in
industry outlined.
The radio played an important part
in the convention. Aside from fiRur-
ing in the exhibition. which Illus
trated the latest developments of APP
pliances in all branches of the in
dustry. 1t was used to broadcast the
news of the convention. Radio news
was sent out from the convention hall
and also from four stations of the
Westinghouse Company at Spring
field, Mass: Pittsburgh, Newark and
Chicago. Included in the radio pro-
gram were addresses of Secretary
Hoover, Attorney General Daugherty
and other speakers. and musical fea-
lures of the convention entertainment
program.
