CULTIVATION OF VACANT LOTS
Has Proved Beneficial and
Profitable.

In 1909 Charles @. Grout, of the In
dianapolis Charity Organization So
ciety, thought gardening a good thing
and from that time until 1t was taken
over by the Patriotic Gardeners asso-
citation, the first year of the World war
"a period of IS years-the plan was
kept in operation as a branch of the
charity organization work, being desig-
mated as Vacant Lot Cultivation and
Home Decoration" The "home dec
oration" part of it meant cleaning up
and Identifying Of yards by whatever
means would accomplish the purpose.
Franklin Vonnegut was long the chair
man Of the al lots committee, and
to him and Mr.. Grout in particular was
largely due the good that was accom-
pllshed In those Is years. The source
of support was an annual campaign for
subscriptions. These rarely IL ever
ran over $500. The returns, as far as
the money value could be figured, were
estimated at from $1,5on to $500.
while the improvement Of surround
ings and the effects upon character
were not to be estimated in dollars
at all. Many schools. especially in
parts of the city where land could be
easily obtained, took up the work with
zeal. In his report of 1910 Mr.. Von-
negut says that the neighborhood about
Chrlstamors settlement was trans
formed by the work of as many as
forty families that had painted or
whitewashed their fences and turned
their yards into gardens, and that the
most direct benefit had accrued to fam
lilies that had been depending on char
ity. The land thus cultivated that year
amounted to 800 full-sized lots that
would otherwise have been waste, and
many of them dumping grounds for
trash. The first blowing and the seeds
were furnished free and the gardeners
did the rest.-Indianapolis News.

earag. Should Conform to Home.

Architects and builders, as well as
developers of subdivisions OF class are
giving serious consideration to the
problem OF the garage, now that we
are rapidly becoming a nation Of au-
tomoblle owner
Rising costs have simpllled building
design and people have awakened to
the fact that the simpler this design
and the freer from gewgaws, the pref
tier II Is.
In this improvement It is imperative
that the garage shall conform to the
architecture OF the house and that an
owner who puts real money into his
home is very foolish II he permits the
unsightly "woodshed' type Of garage
to be built. 1t is as much out OF place
as the practice OF some builders who
use Spanish tile on a colonial house.
The owner should see TO It that II
his house is Dutch colonial his garage
shall be Dutch colonial, too. and II
Spanish that he gets a Spanish type
garage. But whatever the type, II Is
TO be hoped there will be a rapid dis
appearance of the ''woodsheds."

ADVICE FOR HOME BUILDER

Profitable One.

To the young couple Just starting
out in life a home Of their W
means, in the first place, a definite
goal towards which to work, without
which people are apt not to get any
where In particular, writes a banker
in the Kansas City Star.
Statistics will show that where a
family is to be located permanently in
a city 1t is cheaper to own a modest
home than 1t is to pay present-day
rentals.
The home builder will find plenty Of
money offered him by banks and loan
companies at a very nominal interest
rate. providing he Is able to furnish at
least one-half OF the amount needed
to buy his lot and erect his residence.
Any banker or reliable loan COM
pany would be glad to discuss plans
and methods Of financing with the
prospective home-owner.
II Is a good idea to use caution In
attempting to buy a home beyond
ones means. Sometimes the monetary
enthusiasm occasioned by the chance
to obtain a beautiful home at a bar
gain will cause the buyer to assume
contracts which will be impossible for
him to meet later.

al that regulates the grazing of sheep

perative. In carrying out this work

Germany would abide by the decision
rendered. In his note the chancellor
suggested that Germany could pay an
nuities not In excess of 500.00Q000
gold marks and named these guaran-
tees to be placed back of such an
nulties:
First, monopolies on tobacco and
brandy and a tax on sugar and luru-

tent Of 4.OOO.000 gold marks (S1.0O0,-

Second, a pledge OF 50o.oO0.OOO gold

Cuno's note made no mention of the
Ruhr or passive resistance and said
nothing Of politics. International guar
antees or a moratorium.
To this note Frances reply. at this
writing unofficial. is that the new Ger
man proposals will not be even ex-
amined by France until passive resist
ance In the occupied regions has
ceased, and that the Ruhr Will not be
evacuated until Germany pays the
reparations. Belglum's adherence to
this was obtained by Premier Polncare

Premier Theunis and Foreign Minister
Jaspar Induced Polncare to try hard
to have a combined and Identical re-
ply to Cuno made by the allies. Poin-
care also outlined new coercive meas
ures to be applied In the Ruhr and the
Rhlneland, and Belgium agreed to
these with the understanding that she
should send no more troops. These
measures include the establishment OF
an alright Gordon cutting of the oc-
cupied areas from The rest OF Germany,
the Wholesale expulslons OF persons re-
fusing to work or interfering with the

the creation OF new money. the coniis-
