Pretty Houses Attract
More to Neighborhood

One beautiful home of assured per-
manence attracts others Of the same
value and hereby increases its own
value as well as the real estate values
Of the community.
This attraction Is made stronger
when the construction Is Of type
which increases the fire-safeness Of
the locality. The better residence Sec
lions of most communities recognize
this in their building restrictions.
Furthermore, the wise home-builder
looks forward to the possible time
when he may want to sell his house.
Will it depreciate heavily with the
passing years, or will II show In
creased value? The homes covered
with portland cement stucco will, as
a rule, increase in value as the years
go by, because they are permanent in
construction and their appearance i'm
proves with age.
Old but well-built houses may be
rejuvenated and their appearance
changed at a minimum cost with port
land cement stucco. Excellent exam
plies of such work are found in almost
every community.
An exterior envelope of stucco, a
new porch, a sun parlor, perhaps new
windows. will bring about complete
transformation.

BY w. A. RADFoRD

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 ac-
count of his wide experience as editor
author and manufacturer, he is, with
out doubt, the highest authority ON the
subject Address all inquiries to VIII
liam A. Radford. No. 1897 Prairie ave-
nue., Chicago, ILL.,, and only inclose

Illinois farmers lose 1887, 500 an
nually through their failure to house
farm machinery and protect It from
the weather, according to r. I. Shawl,
member Of the farm mechanics de-
partment at the college of agriculture,
University of Illinois. Ten per cent,
or 100000 worth, of farm machin-
cry in the state Is left out In the open,
he says. AS result the average
life Of 1t is reduced from sixteen years
to eight years, as shown in statistics
gathered by agricultural colleges.
Since this $22,2OO,O00 worth of ma
chinery lasts only eight years. the
annual depreciation on 1t is $2.775,O0O,
whereas if 1t were properly housed
and protected it would last sixteen
years and the annual depreciation
would then be reduced to $1,3S7 500.
Similar results could be obtained in
oil sections Of the country.

Lime Mortar Stands
Test After Years

Cement was not used in this coun-
try In the earliest work as it had not
been at that time rediscOvered, but the
lime mortar used in buildings that
stand today was of wonderful qaui-
lty. Great care was used In procuring
proper sand and the lime was slaked
and allowed to cure in pits for months
or even a year before 1t was to be
used. Evidently, too, the relative pro-
portion of lime to sand was exactly
right and the result was that the walls
were more waterproof at the joints
than are those Of today and the NOR
tar still retains its tenacity.

In order to give full value, the
machine shed should be properly de.
signed and built. A good roof Is Inn
portant and it Is desirable to- have
the shed built tight and equipped with
close hitting doors TO keep out sum
light rain, snow and dust and to
prevent chickens from getting into
the building. The design of the shed
should be such that machinery can
be put I'm and taken out easily. LII
addition, the she'd should be so located
that NO time and labor will be lost
in getting back and forth between
1T and the fields. A third. point is
that the shed must be. used by the
farmer, since NO money will be- saved
IL the implements. are left standing
outside the building.
Aside from saving machinery. good
implement sired adds to the efficiency
of the farm by providing favorable
working conditions so that repairs,
'overhauling and adjustments can be
made in the winter when both time
and cheap labor are available to do
such work. Indirect advantages which
add to the value of shedding machin-
cry are the saving in time required
to timber up the machines and the
fewer delays at critical times from
the breaking of part rusted or weak
ened By exposure.

Small House of Brick
Has Low Upkeep Figure

' BY disseminating the information
among small wage earners that the
small brick house actually costs, no
more than house of less durable CON-
struction, If the upkeep costs are
taken into account for a period of
ten or twelve years, we feel that this
industry is rendering a real service.
And not only the wage Garner, but
people who are In. easier financial cir.
cumstances do not always realize the
truth of the economics of home build
ing, taking one material as against
another. And In the long run building
the walls of homes with brick does
not work a hardship on the lumber
industry.
Government experts and others
have pointed out that the forests of
tho country are diminishing at an
alarming rate, and the present pro due
ton of lumber cannot continue for a
great many more years. To build
homes Of brick Is to- conserve lumber.
Just as much wood is used In the IN
terror OF the house for partitions,
floors and finish as would be used In
frame house. the only difference Is
that the outside walls are built OF a
material that VIII protect the inside
lumber from decay and give It a life
three to four times as long as IL the
whole house had been constructed Of
wood.

Queer Industry

In Japan company is engaged in
exploiting the use of volcanic ash in
combination with Portland cement
mortar. This combination is said to
be particularly valuable i'm the con-
structiDn of works submerged in salt
water. 1t is claimed that the cement
thus formed possesses great tensile
strength and is Genser than ordinary
Portland cement. 1t is also more re-
sistant to- the percolation of water.
Attention is called to the fact that, IL
this industry expands, the Philippines
contain a great deal of volcanic ash
which might be available.
