NEW YORK, July 29-Fuller ad-
vantage of the innate honesty and
the laziness of the American buying
public is being taken now by mer-
chandiserS than ever before. Scores
OF manufacturers are making a prac-
tice of sending goods unsolicited on
approval" or what amounts to con-
signment, to individual retail buyers
with no more assurance of getting
back their goods or the money than
the fact that Americans are instinc.
lively honest and lazy.
New Sales Method Tested.
One Buffalo neckwear manufacture
er, for example, has flooded the met
ropolitan district with consignments
OF four neckties which he sends to
a wide list, accompanied by a letter
asking the conSignee if he likes and
wants the ties to send him q check for
S1.6O plus postage. If he does not
want to buy the ties he is requested
TO send them back. In many in
stances consignees have sent a check
as less trouble than repacking the
parcel post. This does not reflect on
the quality of the goods. 1t simply
indicates the desire of American buy
ers to take "the easiest way out"
Grocers Urge Phone Orders.
Buyers have discovered that in the
present state of street and transporta-
rfon congestion it is easier to write
or telephone than to shop personally.

GREEKS REPORT BETTER
FINANCIAL CONDITIONS

The Greek legation announces a
marked improvement in the financial
conditions in Greece, owing to the
application of a new additional tax,
an Athens cable says:
Treasury receipts show an increase
of million drachmae daily. The ad-
ditional tax of 10 per cent, whose col
lection is .intrusted to the National
Bank of Greece, gives receipt of one
and a half million drachmae per day.
These results have produced a marked

in all sections that the latter are
adopting the methods of the mail
statesmen.
Grocers. who formerly laid stress on
the cash-and-c plan of personal
buying, now are urging customers to
telephone for their dry goods and
groceries. This has necessitated a
radical change in methods, but the
merchants declare they have found
1t distinctly worth while.
Answer Own Letters.
Box manufacturers here, who make
a practice of mailing quotations to
regular customers have adopted a
system of answering their own let.
ters, thereby Tightening the work of
the executive to whom they are ad-
dressed. They send telegraph blank
attached, addressed and signed by the
firm who is to receive it and SO
printed as to tell the manufacturer,
by striking out one or two lines, when
the customer will be in the market,
whether he considers the quotation
out of line or to list an order.
Public Dictates Prices.
The public is becoming the dominat-
ing factor in trade Enthusiastically. This
has been emphasized to a marked de
gree in the results of the reduction
in woolen and worsted fabrics by the
American Woolen Co.
Dealers are still awaiting the open
ing of the "fancies," which are ex-
pected to appeal most strongly to the
Wearer, and are disposed to disregard
the cuts made in the so-called staples,
which the public has not rushed to
buy. 1t is notable that raw wool
prices were totally unaffected by the
prices for cloth announced.
July department store business has
been slightly smaller than that of
June, but for many merchandisers
1925 will be a record year.

Door Sill Is Homes
Most Neglected Spot

All traffic into or out Of room must,
Of necessity, pass across door stills. If
the doorway Is much used the stills and
floor area adjacent to 1t soon become
worn and unsightly. If neglected very
long these hard spots will shortly re-
quire new flooring. The same Is true
of stair treads and portions Of the
floor in nearly every room; especially
the kitchen and bathroom.
But the unsightliness Of such spots
and the possibility Of annoying re-
pairs are not all. When the grain of
wood is directly exposed dirt finds
Judgment in it, and even the hardest
scrubbing fails to thoroughly clean the
surface.
This extra labor is entirely unnec-
essary. A little paint or varnish ap-
piled as soon and often as the finish
becomes worn and shabby-loOking will
prevent it. A smooth painted or var
nished surface is kept spotlessly clean
with very little effort. This simple
treatment will save repairs and pre-
serve appearance. Such worn spots
can destroy effect Of an entire room.

Eaves Troughs

Eaves troughs which have begun to
leak can be temporarily repaired by
the use Of tar or asphalt-impregnated
building or roofing paper. The troughs
must be perfectly dry when repaired.
Cut the paper into suitable strips,
then coat the inside Of the trough with
hot asphalt and lay the strip upon
this, bending it to shape before it has
had time to harden. See that the edge
of paper next to the roof laps up over
the edge and under the shingles so
that water cannot get down between
paper and trough.

The good sailor was an elephant.

Some of the other animals had been

The elephant had not been Ill. but
had been we'll all the time.
So, when the elephant joined the

been a good sailor.
"That is what they call It," he told
the other animals Of the circus.
when a person feels we'll while
the sea Is rough and the boat pitches

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all problems pertaining to the
subject Of building work on the farm,
for the readers Of this paper. On &C
count Of his wide experience as editor
author and manufacturer, he is, with
out doubt, the highest authority on the
liam A. Radford, No. 1927 Prairie ave-
nue.. Chicago, ILL.,, and only inclose two

There are several reasons why the
modern dairy farm should be equipped
with a separate milk house in addi-
ton to the regular dairy barn. Quail
ity milk depends to a large extent
upon the care Of the milk after it has
been drawn from the cows and 1t Is
quality milk which assures satisfied
customers good price and steady de-
mand.
Besides this, such a building en-
ables the dairyman to handle his milk
in a way which will receive the I'M
questioned approval Of the health au-
thorities where milk Is sold direct to
work in the cooling and separating.
The milk house shown here was de-
signed for a good-sized dairy farm
and is ample for handling large
daily volume. The building is AZ feet,
s inches long, and "a feet wide with
a receiving platform at one side and
a concrete hotbed on the south side.
This latter is valuable accessory
for starting early vegetables which
. can be easily and cheaply built while
the concrete foundation Of the milk
house is being laid.
The house is constructed Of hollow
building tile with foundation and floor
of concrete. The floor Is laid with a
pitch SO that the water used in the
dairy will readily drain off through a
drain trap. This concrete floor and
drain arrangement permits the use of
plenty of water in washing utensils
and equipment without creating a lot
of muss and inconvenience. This is
an important feature for bacteria col
lect quickly from many sources and
absolute cleanliness, which is an es-
sential in the proper handling OF
milk, can be easily maintained.
The main room, as will be seen from
the floor plan, is 293a by 221a feet
and contains a cooler tank. This tank
is supplied with running water so that
cans can be cooled and held at the
proper temperature over night. The
rest of this space provides room for
the separator and the churn where
butter Is made.
Opening off the main room is g
boiler room with coal bin so that live
steam will be available for sterilizine
milk cans and other dairy equipment
The receiving room, with a door to the
receiving platform, also opens off OF
the main room.
The power required for operating
the separator and churn can be sup
piled in any way desired. If there
is a power plant on the farm power
may be secured from 1t by small
motors for each machine or from 6
line shaft installed in the house. Il
such power is not available a small
gas engine may be installed to supply

OVERRIDING Good Job

Some contractors who want to do
special and especially good job have
been known to use copper nails with
galvanized bath. This is, Of course,
incorrect. Zinc-coated nails should be
used if anything other than ordinary
construction Is desired. The reason
is that copper and zinc form an cleo
trolytic action which breaks down the
zinc and it disappears.
