Architecture for comfort and con.
venience has progressed more apidly
in this nation than in any other. The
poorest American home generally has
it's bath tub, electric lights, gas or
electric water heater and telephone. A
great percentage Of the homes have in
addition, gas or electricity for cooking
the house is wired to plug in vacuum
cleaner in every room; the dining
room is provided with fixtures to oper
ate an electic coffee pot, waffle iron,
toaster or other convenience for table
use In the Mushroom will be the cleo
trio washing machine, the electric and
gas operated ironing machine and
probably an electric clothes drying
outfit. In the kitchen will be the cleo
trio dishwasher and the electric re
frigerator This latter article is just
coming into more general use and
in conjunction with the laundry equip
ment will be the greatest money and
labor saver for the housewife that has
yet been devised.
The gas furnace controlled automatl
cally and lit by an electric push button
has made the old days of wood chop
ping largely a thing of the past For
comfort, the electric fan keeps a
breeze going and for beauty and util
ity the modern electric lights and
fixtures transform a house of gloom
into one, of cheer and nominees Elec,
tricity plays an important part in mi
lady's toilet and does WORK which
many hand maidens would have beeLi
unable to accomplish in the days of
the Roman emperors. The electric
servant does work in the American
home for few dollars a month which
could not be accomplished in any
other manner by numerous servants
at hundred times that price.
The home with the interconnected
telephone to the different rooms saves
countless steps for its occupants,
while Egyptian tombs are being open
ed to dig out relics of monarchs of
past ages, it is interesting to note that
they contain no conveniences to COM
pare with those which the commons
laborer in the United States can en-,
joy today.
We have read about the Roman
baths and seen pictures of big fat Ro

it is pretty safe to say that they were

FARMING AND FINANCE

out as easily the most important
business development of 1924 For
three years agri-
READJUSTMENT cultural and in.
OF PRICES dustrial prTc q G
have been out of
balance, and everyone has suffered
more or less. Going back to 1913 we
find prices in good balance, or for
matters of comparison we may as
sumo this year as normal with agri-
cultural prices at 100 and industrial
commodity prices at 100 Under
these circumstances goods change
hands freely and business is active.
By 1920 we find that the prices the
farmer got for his products had gone
up 200Gc or to an index figure of 300.
Industrial prices for the things the
farmer must buy rose 1907 and
stood at $50. The farmer here had
the advantage and business was
good The following year, however,
prices tumbled to 1913 levels. In
other words they lost all they had
gained and stood again at 100. In
dustrial products also suffered, but
the prices for the things the farmer
had to buy only went down to $50.
Here the farmer was getting his 1913
income but had to pay 500 more for
everything he needed. Naturally he
didn't buy any more than he had to
and general business suffered. In
1928 the situation was somewhat bet
ter with the farmers income from
his crops up to 40 and industrial
commodity prices at IT'S, but the
farmer was still at disadvantage.
During 1924, however, a further re-
adjustment took place and we
closed the year with farm prices at
15S and industrial prices down to
15G. In other words. the farmer is
getting $50 more than he did in 1913
and the things he must buy are only
$50 higher than they were then.
The farmer has the long end of the
bargain.
