Beating Heat

Mo LONGER need you put up with
~ bake-oven rooms in summer {.
cold rooms, draughts and wasted fuel
in winter!
! An, amazing heat-stopping lumber
now brings even, comfortable tempera-
lures all year round.
In summer, it stands between the
scorching rays of the sun and the re-
freshing coolness of the rooms inside.
In winter, it stands between the cozy
warmth of your radiators and the biting
cold.
Itmarks theend ofdangerous draugh hts
and dampness :. of wasted fuel.
No wonder home owners everywhere
have eagerly accepted it! That more
than $4,000 families have built this
modern way in five short years. That
architects and other building author
ities urge its use.
This modern lumber is Celotex /.
produced to meet the great need for
building material that would resist the
passage of heat and cold better than
wood lumber, masonry and other wall
and roof materials. s.
Celotex Insulating Lumber is not cut
from trees. 1t is manufactured from the

and stucco exteriors at no extra cost.
Under plaster, replacing lath, Cello
tex costs few cents more per yard at
first, but is a great economy. 1t means
less upkeep expense because of no lath-
marks >. fewer cracks.
With the walls and roof of your house
covered with Celotex a smaller, less ex-
pensive heating plant and smaller radi-
ators will keep you comfortable. And
year after year, Celotex will save from
$3.50 to $3.50 of your fuel bill!
A1EwcoMroRTf for old homes. In houses
IN already built, a big measure Of
this comfort and economy is secured
by lining attics and Easements with
Celotex. That helps lot and costs little.
There are also dozens of other places
where Celotex is the ideal material for
remodeling work.
Took AHEAD! Now that Celotex has
l. made insulation practical, heat
leaking houses are poor Investment.
The authorities say such houses are be-
coming obsolete: harder to sell, rent or
borrow money on. -"
Ask your architect, contractor or lum-
Der dealer to tell you more about Celo-
tex. Leaders in these lines advise its
use. All lumber dealers can supply it.

Scientist Worrying
About Food Supply
In Century to Come

Cambridge, Mass, March 14.-(AP)
The world must turn to science in
its search for food, said DIR. Samuel
c. Prescott in a lecture here today.
DR.. Prescott. head of the depart
ment of biology at Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, said that
unless new sources and more eff
cient method. of production and
preservation we're found, or some
method devised to synthesize food
from abundant cheap materials. the
world would face a food shortage in
the next century.
He predicted that the first great
retrench~1ent in the worlds food
supply would come in meat and that
the present generation might live to
see a great proportion of meat COM
ing from the Arctic region with it's
reindeer and caribou, and tropical
countries where goats and some
types of cattle can be raised
in large numbers.
Soy beans, peanuts and bananas
may come to rank among the most
important food sources, the con-
sumption of fish will increase tre-
mendously and corn will be used
more generally as human food. Land
now used for cattle raising will in
the future be given over to intens-
i've agricultural pursuits.

100000 FEWER
Federal TAXPAYERS
DUE TO EXEMPTIONS

Washington, Mar. IA. - IAP) -
Collection of almost $400 100000 in
taxes for the quarter is expected by
the treasury from income tax re-
turns, which must be filed by to-
morrow night.
Although the new tax rates. most
of which may be taken advantage Of
in the filing of returns now due.
went into operation less than three
weeks ago. internal revenue officials
report that most Of the vast volume
of returns have been made.
Commissioner Blair of the inter-
nal revenue bureau has ruled that
tax payers with incomes of more
than $4,000. and domestic corpora
lions will be allowed to file tentative
returns at this time upon the pay
ment of one-fourth of the estimated
tax. An extension of two months In
which to file amended the final re-
turns will be allowed in these cases.
Midnight tomorrow Is the deadline
for filing of returns. If the return
is in the mails before that hour the
treasury will accept 1t as having
been filed within the limit.
AS result of the increased per-
sonal exemptions under the new law
1t is estimated that 100000 fewer
tax payers will file returns than last
year. The exemptions were increas-
ed from $1,000 to $500 for single
persons and from $500 to $500 for
married persons.
