OF the ] arger cities, Philadelphie
increased in home ownership from
26.6 to 39,5 per cent, which repre-
sens a distinct advance in city
which added some 10000 people to
it's population in the decade. In New
York City, with layers of apartments
spread over acres of land. individual
home ownership increased from H.
to 1877 per cent for the million and a
quarter families listed.
In part, undoubtedly. the small in
crease of renters from 54.2 per cent
in 1910 to 54.4 per cent in 1920 is
due to the multi family plant which
requires considerable capital to pro
duce. But the increase in renters
may also be traced to a typical
American attitude of mind. We rent
because we do not want the re-
sponsibility nor the anchorage of
home. We want to be free-free to
move from apartment to apartment
Like the printer who had a good
loose trade" we want a good. loose
business and freedom from perma-
nent ties to a community. As city
renters we like that status best in
which managers of new and modern
apartment houses bid for us as ten
ants offering us inducements to come
and live in the latest-built structures
Thus we leave our outworn shells
each time, to pass on to those who
find the alabaster lining newer and
more brilliant than that of their
last domicile All the way from the
duplex apartment de luxe to the still
surviving cold water tenement, ar
over supply of abiding places" per-
mits this endless procession of fam
ilies.--Reviews of Reviews.

SOLDIERS FARMERS HARD HIT


Australasia's s effort to settle her re-
turning soldiers upon farms have not
been altogether successful partly be-
cause the settlers have been faced by
falling prices for their products and
general agricultural crisis precisely at
the time when they most needed quick
and ample returns from their crops
The New Zealand settlers have ask
ed the government to relieve them of
part of their mortgage liability, but
this was promptly refused. Some of
these young men work fourteen hours
a day, seven days week, rather than
admit failure. Farm wages are very
low Two immigrants at Sidney, both
married men, were offered shillings
week and board. One of them
accepted.
In fact, wages are reported to be
falling rapidly in both New Zealand
and Australasia, and Mr.. Hughes, the

FARM BUREAU OF GREAT 6ENEr
FIT TO FARMERS.

Baton Rouge. La.-Since the laSt
report of memberships, 571 new mem
bers have been added to the farm
bureau. This gain has come largely
through the signing of rice and cot
ton contracts. 1t is expected that
steady growth will continue
An intensive campaign was con-
Quoted during the last sixty days to
procure by August l the minimum
number of contracts to make i. possi-
BILE to handle the 1922 rice crop for
the contract signers. Owing to Pc
culiar conditions in the rice territory
the minimum sign-up has not been
procured. Hence the sign-up will bS
continued as the contract provides
that growers will have until January
l, 1928, to procure the necessary 1900
signatures. A canvas of the rice ter
ritory reveals the fact that IS per
cent Of the rice growers favor the
farm bureau rice commodity contract
and will sign it as soon as financial
matters are cleared up.
The cotton contracts were sent out
to the various farm bureaus and mem
bers of the cotton organization COM
mittee recently. One hundred and
eighty-five signed contracts are now
in the state office on file. The num-
Der Of bales per individual vary from
one to 500 The total Is about 5000
bales at this date. The leading par
ishes are Caddo-Bossier, zoos bales;
Franklin, 1866; Ouachita, 1878; Winn,
24s; st. Landry, 1873.

OF the best known and most success
ful selling agencies Of fruit, truck
and vegetables in the United States.
1t has definite distributing organizA-

1t Is another evidence OF the value

NEARLY 100000 WORTH OF

BUILDING ELECTRIC LINE
Most Complete Electric System Out
side OF New Orleans For Use or
Industrial Plants, Cities And
Farmers.

Amite. lathe California veterans
Of '49 no doubt were any more sue
cessful in turning up gold than farm
ers around Amite in turning strawber-
ries to gold.
What the strawberry crop Is doing
toward building UP Tangopahoa parish
and making this section one OF the
most prosperous in the country is
shown by the financial returns from
the berries marketed the past season.
The total amount received from the
crop this year was approximately $2,-
10000. This large sum was distrib-
uted among about 5000 families en-
gagged in the production of strawber-
ries in what is known as the Tangi-
pahoa district.
Out OF their receipts the berry grow
ers paid their labor for picking. pack
ing ETC., which amounted to about
100000 for the season In addition
to that, the producers bought shipping
crates from four veneering plants in
this parish. 1t Is estimated that L.
600, 900 crates were used in moving
the berry crop this season.
And along with their prosperity
comes ease and luxury.
Within a few weeks every town and
0very industrial plant and farm house
situated along the Illinois Central rail
road between Ponchatoula, La, and

miles, will have the benefit OF cleo

low rates.
When complete it will be the long
est electric Night and power line in
Louisiana outside OF New Orleans.
Poles are being put in place, wires are
being strung and the work will be fin
ished at an early date.
The Central Light and Power Com
pany OF Amite is building the line,
which traverses the highway parallel
ing the Illinois Central railroad from
Ponchatoula to Osyka
The line runs through the center of
the strawberry belt, one of the most
densely populated rural sections of
the state. High tension wires, cap
aAle Of carrying enormous voltage,
are being used.
The Central Light and Power Com
pany owns the plant now in operation
at Amite and has contracted for sur
Plus current from another large indus
trial corporation. When the line is
completed from Ponchatoula to Osyka
the company will put on a campaign
