The Rest Windows

In general. windows look best, both
inside and out. if they are grouped.
An occasional bay breaks the Elonor-
ony of walls. both inside and out, and
even in flat wall the group of ;hro e
or four windows separated only by
thin mullions is far more effective
than scattered windows.
There is no doubt that the case
mcnt type of window. preferably
loaded. is far more interesting than
the double hung, two-sash type, or
that small! panes are moe pictures
que than large ones. Of course,
small panes are harder to clean, but
the question resolves itself into
whether or not one is setting COLL
vcnicnce above architectural charm.
To be thought of in connection
with windows are shutters. Eoi :
tunatcly, the battcncd- wood or panel
type is growing increasingly popular.
There is always the chance TO make
the solid shutter individual by in

Coconuts Gain in Popularity in the United States

ns - N..".sl cn,s

More than a billion coconuts
grown under the American flag are
among the 1922 Contributions of
our tropical islands to the comfort
ard convenience of the people OF
continental United States. Some
of these came in the natural form
but a large proportion in manu-
featured or partly manufactured
state. Most of these contributions
to Our food supply came. from the
Philippine Islands as result Of
large investments of American cap
ital in the coconut industry, with
much smaller quantities from our
other islands, Tutuila, Guam, Ha-
wall, Porto Rico and the Virgin
group.
The American taste for the CO.
conut. which was developed dur
ing the war period. still fingers. and
our 1922 importation of that ar
ticle in its various forms shows
bigger totals both in quantity and
value than in the corresponding
period of 1921, but of course less
than during the war period when
Europe was demanding such
large proportion of our meat sup
plies. Curiously. too, the share
which our own islands are con-
tributing to this large Importation
OF strictly tropical products is
steadily increasing, due in large
part to the development of the CO.
conut indsutry in the Philippines
during and since the war. The
millions OF American dollars in
vested in this industry in the
Philippine Islands about the be-
ginning of the war period are now
making these islands the chief con-

The coconut and coconut prod
