A farmhouse without plenty of room for a large laundry. vegetable store room and modern heating plant, is not worth while and certainly not practical.
 Across the entire front extends a wide, open porch, an ideal recreation place for the family in the warm weather and cool evenings. In the summer it can be screened in to keep out pests and dirt.

Windows in front and side provide plenty of light. It Is also important to note in these floor plans that all electrical fixtures and outlets are indi- cated.
 From the living room, one enters the dining room through door opening rather wide and plain. In dining room provision is made for a central light ing fixture over the table, and small CT wall fixtures around the room. This room gets light from triple side win dow.

In this way much of the dirt that used to come into the farm kitchen Is left out. or the din ing room to the rear is a bedroom for those who have to wash early. There Is also lavatory in connection with the washroom.
 This arrangement leaves the upper floor entirely to bedrooms. of which there are four in this plan. with a rear screened-in sleeping porch and balcony. The two front bedrooms are B feet square. while the two rear ones are F by l3 feet. They all have clothes closets.

 ''Let there be light"
 For years and years the practical meaning of this Biblical expression was lost to the farmer. True, he may have got some spiritual consolation from 1t, but there was significance that had not dawned upon him. He kept hard at 1t, working his long hours each day and far into the night with

little of the comforts of home that make 1t a solace and comfort after the days work is over. His first consid- eration was barn. And after he had built structure that was not to be excelled in the neighborlng country. he built hoghouse or sheep barn. All the while he was living in makeshift shelter which he called home.
 But the light was coming, coming to show the way in the darkness. The light tha. showed the real value of home, the absolute economy of the Idea, and Its influence on the future of the boys and girls who were grow ing up. As they began to desert the farms. to leave their parents to go to the lights of the city, the farmer be- gan to think, and as he thought, he began to see the gleam that was to |enlighten him. He realized that to keep his boys on the farm, to get the |haximum joy out of life. he would have to build a regular home as well as a substantial barn.
 And with the home came many of the conveniences that are now avail able in the city. With the home came running water. bathrooms. and cleo tric light. the light that was to lead the farmer down the road to ideal home life.

rrock of last season real success. It has the straight line. It has the coat dress opening. It has the em- broidery And it has the short sleeves, But. how differently all of these fine points are arranged. The embroidery is distributed in quite Il unique way. The sleeves, while they are short, are still very much more loosely fitted than were those in the old days. The waistline Is long and the belt is but loosely attached and fitted. Then, too, the lines of both the skirt and waist are ample and full and left to go their own sweet way rather than being held tight enough to outline the figure in any radical way.
 The fact is that this dress Is an ex- cellent example of the serge dress that is popular and good in style just now. There are many of them to be seen no matter where you turn your head, but the best of them have the long lines that are characteristic of thls model and always they are as simple as can be in all of their expression.

 Of capes there are many, and even more than that, 10 be seen upon the streets. The newer wraps have sleeves of some sort, either set Into their meshes or cut as parts of the wrapping material When you see the wrap ap- preaching you on the street, you can hardly believe that 1t is not cape, but when you come close to 1t you will realize that the sleeves which happen to be concealed miraculously in it's folds are the portion of the thing that give 1t its style.

 With the all-black or all-blue suits there are any number of red hats in all shades of vividness to be seen. Then there are some bright green hats for those who can wear them, and, in truth, no shade or color has been neglected by the spring headgear if you are to believe your own eyes as you see the new fashions assembling. For the dresses of brighter colors there are, perhaps, hats that are more neutral in tone. And often the hats are made to match the costume, being made either from the material which composes tho dress or coat or being composed of some other fabric that exactly matches IL

On Broadway their skirts are short way to the knees, writes a fashion correspondent in the New York Times. The college girls around Columbia wear theirs, toe, at this high stopping place. But, take walk on Fifth avenue any of these afternoons, anG you will not fail to see the skirts de- scending and descending. And. when you do see the newer and the smarter things as they are actually worn then you are forced to confess that you like them.
 Their smartness lies not alone in the fact that they are distinctly new, but they shine because they are so beautl- fully proportioned and designed. It IS not only that the skirts have descend ed, but the waistlines have done the same thing in n totally harmonious fashion, and the sleeves are just as long in proportion, so that the smart wOman's figure becomes something with new appearance rather than of any heightened appearance. In other words, before you know it, your skirts will be long, too, and you will hardly know the difference.
 A certain comfort lies in these newer and more formal clothes in that they are notably suited to the more mature figure. The girlish stuff of the last few seasons looked all right on some of the older women, but if we are honest on the subject 1t did not superlatively become all of them. And the scant straightness of the gowns that are passing into fashions discard lad many unflattering ways with them when they adorned the lines that were more plump.
 Now these newer frocks with all their fullness and draping and pieat- ing offer many little subtle tricks by which a figure that is more than or dinarily large or of unlovely propor- tions may be so softly obliterated that the dress walks right into the class with the leaders of fashion. Really the newer dresses are more artistic things than were their predecessors. They have kept the best from the older styles and have added new points that make them absolutely fascinating

CROPS and Profit
PROBLEMS JUST NOW PRESS.
ING on AGRiCULTURISTS
Farmer on Low-PrIeed, Fertile Lands,
Still to 30 Had, 10 In Best
Possible Position.

The economic problems connected
with the advantageous marketing of
farm crops and the financing Of the
movement Of those crops are pressing
upon agriculture most severely. They
will be solved, however, and while
that solution is being worked out 1t
Is simply good sense on the farmers
part to make his efforts toward pro-
auction tell to the very maximum, as
best carrying him through the period
of depression and hard times and
placing him in the best position to
take the greatest possible advantage
of the better times to come. We may
repeat that the cheapest farm crop,
whether from fields or from live stock,
Is almost invariably the largest crop
which can be obtained. Or In other
words, the greater the crop, the
greater the net profit. To attain such
crops and to place himself in the ad-
vantageous position referred to above,
the farmer must study, and must apply
the results Of his study to such prob.
lens as soil fertility, its conservation
and Increase; soil moisture, its con-
troll; cultural methods, suitable and
productive varieties, etc, etc.
The question Is how can you best
accomplish and secure these thlngs7
Can they be done on high-priced lands,
by paying high rents, with the prices
you get for your produce no greater
than may be had from that grown
and raised on much cheaper lands,
whose production is fully as great rs
that Of the high-priced lands? The
answer is unquestionably In favor of
the low-priced lands, when they are
selected because Of their soil fertility
and the other requirements necessary.
1t is not the purpose here to point out
merely that the lands of Western
Canada would prove a splendid and
ready solution, but to emphasize the
fact that in order to overcome your
present difficulty, to remove some of
the burden that you are laborng I'M
der. you must secure some line of
cheaper operation, whether it be re-
moval to other parts in your own
country where such opportunity may
offer, or take advantage of that which
Western Canada affords.
For information regarding these
advantages apply to any Canadian

Norman Davey, In "The Pilgrim of

er who took the impresarios place
one night and thrilled London with
his violin. Apropos of which the sue
cessful manager gives his ideas about
genius:
IF he's genius he'll push his
way; and when he's pushed his way
and made stir I'll pick him up. Aw,
you don't know what genius is; you
