For those who like the New
England colonial type-and this
type is rich in possibilities for re-.
fined houses along simple lines
the house shown herewith will at
once offer strong appeal
The broad straight front, un.
broken roof, delicate entrance porch
with benches and lattice, large
windows divided into small panes
with heavy muntins, and last but
not least, the finely detailed en-
trance doorway all reflect the old
colonial spirit.
The walls are heavy shingles laid
wide exposure and finished in the
old "whitewash" effect, while the
roofs which are also single, are
stained q rich moss green. The
blinds and shutters should be fin.

His Lack Of Judoment.

Bud Buckover hain't got no sense
worth mentioning" said citizen of
Sandy Marsh. Ark. "Tuther evening
he got into fuss with his wife and
b'cuz suthin' or nuther didn't suit him,
he began to yell and slash around with
his revolver. Then he boolged out of
the door and fired his gun in the air.
Prob1y he ffggered his wife would
think he'd shot himself, aud be sorry
But, about that time, Hamp Sockery
came in at the gate and, nacher'ly s.
posing Bud was shooting at him,
pulled his gun and let drive and shot
Bud through the shoulder. If Bud had
had any sense he'd a-recollected that a
family row is like the feller said of
charity-it begins at home, and ort to

DAIRY
FACTS
MUST KEEP HElFER GROWING
Larger She Is GreNer Will Be Her
Capacity to Consume and Turn
It Into Milk.

To get the best out of our dairy
cattle we must grow the heifers out
and develop them WELL because the
heifer of today is the COW of tomor-
row, says j. p. LaAlaster, chief of
the dairy division, who states that the
majority of the dairy heifers in South
Carolina are undersized. The dairy
heifer is future milk producing ma
chine, and the larger she is the great
er will be her capacity to consume
feed and therefore to produce milk
other things being equal.
The question often comes up In
feeding heifers as to whether they
are making good growth, for their
age. How big should a six-months-
old heifer be? What should she
weigh? Normal growth for Jerseys
Holsteins, Ayrshires and dairy
Shorthorns have been worked out
by the Missouri experiment station.

TRACE EARLY Man.
Much Is Being Learned Of De.
velopment Of Humanity.
Scientific Discoveries Seem to Give
Point to Idea Of Evolution
From the Early Apes.

Within fifty years great discoveries
bearing on mans development from
his apelike ancestors will be made,
DIR. Ales Hrdlicka of the Smith
sonian institution predicted recently.
Just back from an examination of the
known sites of ancient man in Europe,
Doctor Urdlicka declared that the de-
posits of early skeletal remains are
vast, and emphasized the Importance
of organized, systematic research In
bringing their precious contents TO
light.
"The surface has hardly been
scratched" he said, "by discoveries of
early man so far made in west central
and south Europe, while nothing has
been done to explore the tropics for
evidence of early man and his prede-
cessors, which are probably present
there. Expensive expeditions are con-
stantly being fitted out to dig up pot
tery and other recent relics of man,
but the development of man himself
from more primitive forms. the very
essence of mans history, is largely
neglected.
"At Ehringsdorf, near Weimar and
Obercassel Germany, at La Quina,
France, at Predmost, Moravia, and
elsewhere" Doctor Hrdlicka said,
primitive cave-dwellers of the Mean
derthal or later type lived one hun
dred and fifty thousand or more years
ago. and the accumulation of various
cultural remains left by them Is very
striking.
"At La Quina the talus containing
remains Of ancient man extends along
the low cliff bounding the valley TOR
nearly two miles, with a strong prob
ability, that there are caves in the cliff
in which man of hundred thousand
years ago found shelter, and of these
accumulations not one f1ftieth has yet
been examined. They abound in
worked stones and bones of long
extinct animals hunted by the ancient
human beings who here and there
have left the remains of their own
skeletons in these refuse heaps and
clays."
| The skulls of these early inhabi-
tants of Europe, though probably an
cestral to those of man of today, are
distinctly different from those Of any
modern races, Doctor Hrdlicka eX.
planned. They are heavy and low
browed, heavy jawed and the lower
jaw has as yet no chin prominence
the chin in fact is often markedly re-
ceding, as in the great apes. While
we speak of these people as cavemen
several of the specimens recovered
are probably women, while recently {
complete skull of cave child was
found. the first so far revealed.
In the ten to hundred thousands OF
years represented by these remain:
there are noticeable differences in the
earlier and later skulls. There is g
gradual progression toward the mod
ern type, but all the stages are mo-
yet known by well-preserved speci
| mems.
"These people represent various
links in the chain of mans evolution
from early apes. Man did not develoy
from any of the present-day apes,
Doctor Hrdlicka said, but represent.
separate line of descent from the
pre-human form which in turn arose
from long extinct simian forms."-

Standardization is the only way that

E. C. Peck. works manager of local
drill company.
In an address before representa-
tives of six engineering organiza- =
ttons Col. Peck told of several ex-
emples of standa rdization and con-
sequent industrial saving, including
the reduction on the number OF styles
Of milk bottles from forty-nine to
nine and a considerable reduction in
the number of styles of furniture
castors, the original number of which
he said, was $500.
Life would be much happier If mems
pockets, women's hats and bank
checks could be standardized, Col.

ut probably will be long time
before women's hats are standard :
casters, the original number OF which,
make them up are already standard

to be made the same size as our
