The register of deeds Of WyandOtte
county says Kansas City, Kan, is in
fair way to become the leading city
Of the country in the percentage of
home owners. That official has been
noting the unusual number Of realty
transfers, and the fact that many
working men and others with limited
means have been buying homes. 1t
will be great for Kansas City, Kan,
Of course, if that city gets in fore
most place in this important matter;
but building permits indicate that
Kansas City, Mo-, and many other
places are going right ahead in this
home ownership business.
Few movements of greater possible
value ever went forward in the cOun-
try. A city or community of any
kind with high percentage Of home
owners is bound to be made up of a
good class Of citizens; families with
children; men and women of settled
habits, and persons who, because Of a
proprietary interest, are likely to show
more than the usual concern with CON-
munity affairs. The home owner Is
the least likely convert to bolshevism
or any other ism that doesn't grow out
Of sanity and common sense condi-
tons Of living.
One way to promote home owning
is to attract capital into the home
owning business.

AGRICULTURE

The potato is foremost in value a.
mong our vegetables. 1t is the chief
money crop Of large areas, an inn
portant staple in many others, and is
grown for home supply and local
markets in almost every farming dis
trict. The wise or unwse marketing
of the potato crop may easily mean a
difference of millions Of dollars in
the farmers income in year, &C.
cording to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. This is particu-
uarly true of the late or main crop Of
potatoes, which comprises about four
fifths of the total production.
Potato crop and market news sup
pied by the United States Department
of Agriculture includes crop and mar
ket reports and summaries of many
kinds published at eight field stations
located in the prominent shipping
sections and at about dozen market
stations, including the Washington
office. These reports contain the
necessary facts Of production, condi
ton, shipment, prices, demand, and
quality. By persistently using and
comparing reports from day to day
and season after season, they become
more and more useful in showing the
potato holder when, how, and where
to sell.
The general condition and course Of
the market is best indicated by the
leading grades of the most important
commercial varieties in the largest
and most active markets. Among
the regular price developments to be
looked for in average seasons is a
comparatively low price at digging
time with some gain as shipments de-
crease or when winter conditions be-
gin, then several months of moderate
ups and downs, and then another
swing, upward or downward with the
opening Of spring activity. The pro-
portion of stocks held by dealers on
January 1, has often proved an in
dication Of the course Of the late
winter and spring markets.

Wooden Toy Industry
Boor,s II, United States

The wooden toy industry Is booming
In America, the World war having
given it q big lift, because it tenn
porarily discouraged German manufac-
ture, formerly the chief source of sup
ply for the American market.
The tariff now in force sealed the
fate of German competition in wooden
toys in this country and since that
time several large centers of toy man.
ufacture have sprung up, Winchendon,
Mass, being the largest in the East,
says the New York Times. The only
wooden toys of any prominence that
escaped the tariff embargo is the artl-
fetal Christmas tree, which has been
reclassified and transferred from tn"
wood product class to the feather
schedule, as large portion of artifi-
cial Christmas trees are made OF
feathers.
Some German toys are on the mar
ket at high prices, according to the
New York State College Of Forestry,
which says: "The mechanical toys
manufactured in Germany are superior
to the American product as general
rule. Many of these are made of
metal, such as battleships, locomotives.
trains, railroads, automobiles, fire en-
gines, mills, and pianos, although
large portion of the pianos are made OF
wood. German dolls are in many cases
preferred to the American product"
american manufacturers excel In
the construction Of the larger toys.
such as sleds, skis. carts, snowshoes,
toboggans, ETC." says the college. "The
kind Of wood often depends on the by
product of the lumber manufacturers
near which the toy factories are usual
" located. For this reason, one man
ufacturer uses pine, another chestnut
and another various hardwoods.
Toy factories are an excellent outlet
for the by-products of many working
mills and go long way toward max
ing the operation of the lumber and
coarse products mills profitable. Ow
ing to the growing scarcity of wood
and the increase of the cost of labor,
wooden toys have increased in price
in the last ten years about 100 per
cent. RefOrestatiOn and scientific for.
est management will tend to reduce
their cost.

When possible, cool days should be
selected for the operation, and cold,

should be kept on light diet for the
"a hours preceding the operation. The
digestive tract should never be dis
tended with feed at the time Of oper-
ating. A thorough washing of the
scrotum with an antiseptic solution
of liquor cresolis compositus, or
cleaning with soap and water is a
part of the operation which should
not be neglected. Extremely irritat-

cause rubbing of the wounds and SO
