The Call of the Suburbs
Its Effect on the Real Estate Market

The beginning OF great residential
drift to the suburbs is here Adequate
transportation, schools, stores, churches
and amusements have brought it about.
There are many other reasons for
such concerted drifting to the outlying
districts; briefly. we have found that
the suburb offers an opportunity to
really enjoy home life; the city is for
business, not homes.
This large demand can mean but one
thing-eventually prices will be almost
prohibitive in the more desirable Sec
tions
Anticipating this, we have put upon
the market the best available land in

Everybody who has had anything to
do with vacuum tubes has from time
to time had them do unexpected things
and give results that at the moment
seem beyond explanation.

teristics Of these miniature giants
which are met with in daily operation

the amateur. In cases where the ac-
lions Of the tube are not understood
these peculiarities have sometimes
frightened people.
One instance Of newborn fans
fright was brought to attention In q
letter of inquiry. The instrument had
Just been set up and was being oper-
ated for the first time. The tubes had
been firmly adjusted and were Just at
the splitting point and lover they went,
giving vent to the most unearthly
sounds. The embryo enthusiast who
looked upon the audion tube az an
electric light. thought It was going to
explode. He jumped away from the
instrument and out Of the room, and
did not venture near It for several
hours, and then only after reaching
round the corner Of the door with q
long stick and pulling the battery
switch of.
Similar instances have come to at
tention when bulbs generate vari-col-
ored vapors in the vacuum chamber.

CAFETERIA PLAN

Plan for Feeding Stock Is Being
Used on Many Farms in
Corn Belt and Elsewhere.
'R0GGING DOWN SAVES LABOR
Keeps Hogs in Good Condition., Dis.
tributes Manure Uniformly and
Provides for a Simple Rota-
ton Of Crops.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
! Thirty or forty years ego some
shrewd farmers fell into the habit Of
letting their hogs run in the cornfield
In September and October and allow
ing them to eat ears and stalks until
all that remained could be plowed un-
der.
Some also turned hogs into the rye
in the spring and let them range on
the tender and succulent stalks until
they became too woody to be palat-
able. This process was termed "hog-
ging down."
Labor Shortage Changes Methods.
Then came crusade for "clean
farming'-typified by harvesting and
shocking the corn stalks, husking the
yellow ears and piling them into the
cribs, later to be fed to the same hogs.
"Hogging down" was decreed to be
shiftless evasion of honest toll. The
"hogging down" farmers fell into dis
favor and dropped the practice to 9
large extent gag ~''~''"''' '
Meantime, the labor market was
tightening, and days work came to
be regarded not so much as something
to be gotten out of the farmer or his
sons or a hired man, but as period
to be paid for in money that could
be used for other purposes.
The United States Department of
Agriculture and some Of the expert
mpnt stations in corn states have of
late years given careful attention to
the possibilities Of feeding stock on
the cafeteria plan. Today it is in use
on hundreds: Of corn:hslt farms and
in many other localities in all parts
OF the country where corn is grown.
Hogging down corn saves labor,
while causing no more waste than
when the corn IS harvested and hand
fed. Properly managed, it keeps the
hogs In better condition and adds
weight more rapidly. 1t distributes
manure uniformly. 1t leaves the
ground in fair condition for the next
crop. and it fits in with a rotation sys-

it will take a week or ten days feed

may be expected to live entirely in

generally found best not to permit the
hogs range Of the entire field, but to
erect temporary fences. These can
easily be built Of 25-inch wide wire
mesh, fastened to anchor posts at the
ends and tied to cornstalks instead Of
line posts. If supplemental crop
such as rape, cowpeas, soy beans, or
even pumpkins, has been sowed
among the corn, it will provide protein
feed which the corn lacks.

Fired 20 caliber rifle shells
make good switch points for tun-

A single wire aerial 100 to
100 feet long is sufficient for

Of broadcasting stations.
Do not string aerials across
