Luminous House Numbers.

one of the most disconcerting ex-
periences of the city dweller is that of
searching in the dark for house num-
ber. If the hour is late, the situation
is especially embarrassing, for the in
nocent visitor is liable to be mistaken
for prowler.
But thanks to science, the old days
are past, and the time is not far dis
tant when probably every city house
will be numbered with figures which
are easily readable on the darkest
night and at considerable distance.
A Chicago concern has adarted the
use of luminous radium to house num-
bering signs, and the idea is being re-
ceived with great favor by the public.
The first cost is reasonable, and there
is no upkeep cost, the sign being self
luminous and requiring no attention.
The product is guaranteed to show
light in the dark for five years. al
though the actual life is much longer.

Plant at Once.

To make sure that the planting of
shrubs, trees and plants is well begun,
we must so back to the time when the
delivery man brings in that Interesting
looking box or bale and you begin to
open IT with ill-concealed excitement.
If nursery stock is not to be planted
at once it is better to leave it in its
package after partially opening it and
wetting the roots thoroughly. If sew
eral days must intervene before it can
be planted, it is advisable to heel" in
trees and shrubs, that is, dig TEN
porary trench and cover the roots thor
oughly, so that the air will not reach
them. Remember that the natural
place for roots is in the ground, and
the shorter the time between digging
In the nursery and replanting in the
yard the better. When possible, the
beds for shrubs and flowers should be
prepared well In advance In order to
allow the soil to settle.

"HOME TOWN" WORTH while
Where the Citizens Pull Together on
All Things That viii Benefit
the Community.

The real home town, on the broad,
helpful basis, isn't far to seek.
There are many of them here, at
home, as elsewhere-towns of com
munity interest, where the people pull
together on all worthy lines, such as
the Hartwell (Ga) Sun describes in
the following paragraph:
"Our town is the town of happiness.
We strive for something more than
business. We strive for friendliness,
one with another, which makes life
worth while. We have family circle
in which every inhabitant counts one.
Our motto is One for All and All for
One And we want to play the same
game with our neighbors everywhere.
Life is the game OF brotherhood, and
our town Is building on that basis"
There could be no better basis upon
which to build; for, by striving for
something more than business, bust
ness itself is served and benefited.
The motto, zone for All, and All for
one" takes in all that contributes to
the growth and prosperity of the real
home town-the town of happiness"
The best advertisement any town
could have is to say of it: 1.-The people
pull together there"
That is the real progressive home
town.-Louisville Courier-J ournal.

HOUSE SHOULD BE INSULATED
From the Standpoint of Health and
Comfort, Proceeding Ought to Be
Considered Imperative.

Besides being most effective insu-
tute for lumber in outside sheathing,
as a plaster base and as an interior fin
ish for rooms. Taking into account the
materials displaced eliminated and re-
duced, there are many cases in which
the cost of insulation is fully offset and
the home with Insulation can be built
as cheaply as one without it.
An important advantage of insulat-
ing houses, not expressed in dollars
and cents, is the uniformity of temper
ature they maintain. Obviously, if
the walls and roof offer effective re-
sistance to the escape of heat, the tenn
perature of the room must remain
more nearly constant than when heat
is rapidly passing through the walls.
Uniform temperature means comfort
in every part Of the room without the
necessity of "Augging" the radiator.
Uniform temperature prevents ill
ness and gives comfort. 1t is obvious
that properly insulated buildings pro-
viding such economies and comforts
during the winter months will prove
exceptionally cool in the hot months of
the year, as insulation effects more
evenly regulated temperature, keeping
the heat out in summer as it keeps the
heat inside in the winter.
Failure to insulate a house, built at
this time, is wasteful and inefficient.

Nine-day Pickles is an old

Nine-day Pickles is an old
country recipe, and even though nine
days are necessary for making them,
the result is worth the time spent. Pre-
pare brine of four quarts of water
and one pint of salt. Soak large,
whole cucumbers in this for three days.
Drain, then soak them in clear water
for three days. Drain again, cut the
cucumbers in slices one inch thick and
simmer for two hours in weak vinegar.
For seven pounds of cucumbers, use
three pounds of brown sugar, one pint
mon, allspice and celery seed. Boil su-
gar and vinegar to sirup. Drain the
cucumbers from the vinegar and cover

FARMER PUTNAM ON SILoS

A silo is hole entirely surrounded
by wall fur STORM COW feed. Some
times the hole is in the ground; some
times it is up in the air. To build a
silo, first select nice spot fur the
hole, then build a wall outside of the
hole if you build up, or inside of the
hole if you want a pit silo. Either
kind is good, but you got to go about
it different If you CANT put up
silo, put one down, but don't put it off.
All kinds of material is good fur
silo buildin' exceptin' hot air. Good
ones is made outen cement, concrete,
cement slaves, or slabs, holler tile,
brick, stone, wooden slaves, steel or
two-by-fours. We has 1000 silos in
Colorado made of them above materials
and about 10000 outen hot air.
Most of the farmers has got the spot
fur the hole picked out, but they ain It
never begun to commence to build yet,
fur some reasons or others. Some hahn t
got the money, some cain t decide on
the kind of silo, some sez it s too much
work to haul the crop in and cut it up,
some sez silage makes the cows teeth
fall out, some seq it gives 'em holler
horn and holler tail, some sez it makes
milk turn green, some saz the butter
from silage milk won It churn, some sez
it makes steers scour, hawgs howl and
lambs limp. Anything to put off silo
building.-Thomas jefferson Putnam.

with the sirup. Pour off and reheat
sirup for three days in succession, and
after the third time add covers to lars
and seal.
Apple Conserve tough apples
may be prepared in this way, but Ben
Davis apples seem best for the purpose:
Wash, pare, remove blemishes, and cut
the apples into eighths. Into a shallow
saucepan put quart of white corn
sirup, few shreds of orange peel and
sufficient red vegetable coloring to
tint nicely. When the sirup boils, put
in the apples and boil until transparent.
Pack in sterilized glasses and when
cold cover with paraffin and put on
the lids. The transparent, red slices
look like rubies and are very appetiz-
ing when served with meats.

Plant Trees Now.

With the gigantic road-building pro-
gram before the states plans should
certainly be made now for tree-lined
approaches to every town. First i'm
pressions are everything with an in
dividual, and so with n community. 1t
Is all very well to put up the welcome
sign at either end of the town limits,
but why not look the part with some
inviting trees? The American Tree as
sociation Is making every tree planter
II member. Why not have the entire
community join in this tree-planting
movement?

Amateur Athletic Union To Try For Rule Barring
 Aliens

NEW YORK, Dec. 29-The incl dent surrounding the decision of Will lie Ritola. distance running star, to return to Finland and compete for his native country in the 1924 Olym- pic, was closed officially today so far as American athletic authorities are concerned.
 Frederick W. Reubien, secretary of Amateur Athletic Union and also of the American Olympic committee, an- nounced today that he had taken the final step in Ritola's case by formal ly notifying Finnish athletic author ities that the runner is in good amateur standing in this country. MT. Rubien also briefly reviewed Ri- tola's career here. pointing out that he had been here about ten years last few years. Ritola has held the national 10-mle and cross-country titles for two years and also is the indoor record holder for three and four miles.
 MT. Rubien's action followed his suggestion that to prevent such instances as that of Ritola who ac- quired his prowess enirely through American competition American ath- letic authoroties might consider bar ring aliens from registered compe- tition until they have taken out first citizenship papers and withdrawing such licenses if he athletes fal to obtain final papers. MT. Rubien pointed out, however, that this was merely his personal view.
 Ritola already had taken out first citizenship papers in this country but this will not affect his restora- tion to Finnish citizenship. which he could lose only b application to the Finnish state departmen tor it's null lification Ritola expects to sail next week for Finland

 when 1925 rolls around. Dempsey and Leonard seem to be about the only ones fairly secure in their titles And with Wills and F'irpo in the of flng. even MT. Dempsey's crown rests none too certain.

 You cannot speak of champions and leave out one Zev, king of all three year old horseflesh in spite of what motion picture cameras may have to say to the contrary. Zev has victories over Papyrus, the English horse; In Memoriam and My Own.
 Strangely enough, the name of Sarazen figures in two champion ships. A two -year-old horse named after the great little golfer is the undisputed two-year- old champion.
 The New York Americans, other wise known as the Yankees under the leadership of Miller Huggins and with the aid of the great Babe Ruth, won their first worlds series last fall, when they beat McGraw' 8 Giants. The winning of the series carries with 1t the worlds baseball championship.
 Last spring a magnificent crew was sent east from Washington uni versity, on the west coast. Entered in the intercollegiates at Peughkeep- sic, they swept the river. defeating the crack Navy crew. Columbia was third. Thus the rowing champion ship once more goes back to the west.
 The mythical eastern football championship has been divided be- tween Yale and Cornell. Each went through the season undefeated.
 We may have left some one out in this symposium. In fact we quite suspect we have. We hope no one will get wrought up over it.
