are skillfully designed and we'll con-
structed, and, most important of all,
that properties are scientifically man
aged, for after all 1t is satisfactory net
profits that are going to hold the in
terest of the investor and these are de-
pendent largely upon the competent
operation of his investment.
And finally, it would seem that pres
ent conditions are a challenge to the
realtor, himself. Through fortunate
circumstances the general investing
public has become interested in the
purchase and financing of desirable
properties in a bigger way than ever
before. This trend should mean I'M
paralleled opportunity for the entire
real estate business.
But this movement has Just started.
It must be fostered. Thousands OF IN
vestors who have never been interested
before in real estate securities can be
induced to join the ranks Of those who
now are. The investing public will stay
in the real estate game just so long as
they get attractive financial returns
and fair treatment. The personal re-
sponsibility Of the realtor Is TO see that
the field Of real estate investment is
made attractive, and that it continues
to be so. Unsound projects should be
discouraged: attempts at over1nancing
and dishonest appraising should be
frustrated If possible, and competent
management Of properties should be
advocated. One losing venture UNI
loaded on a public whose confidence
has been gained will destroy more good
than the promotion of dozen sue
cessful operations will create.

Sthat many new types of securities are

,,that an increasing number of large in

Stzhe prevailing periods; and that funds
sare being obtained from the public for
I'd larger variety of purposes, connected
with the real estate business, than at
sany time heretofore.
!, Probably the most important conclu-
>edon of all is that the public Is invest
ling in real estate securities on an in
SCreasingly large scale, and that there
SIS a marked tendency for the investor
Ito take his place alongside the owner,
back of the first mortgage. Interest
states have increased slightly, as has the
scost of securing capital, and, for the
slime being, issues are more difficult to
%arrange. But this is due, in large meas

first Of all, that with the public as a

imposes certain responsibilities. Part

nrojects in which they are investors.
IS Is quite natural therefore, that much
Saoser scrutiny will be given new I'M

HOUSE DECORATION.
Architects Work Declared Not
Ended With Plans.

Ended With Plans.
BY WILLIAM HARMON BEERS.
Many people think that the architect
has fulfilled his work when he has de-
signed the house with its bare walls and
that the finishing of the room calls for
different talents than he possesses
This, to me, is an entirely erroneous
idea and exceedingly hard on the archi-
tect. Many a beautiful house has been
entirely ruined by execrable taste in
finishing the rooms.
Unfortunately, most persons are
proud Of their own taste and think they
should be permitted to make the room
they live in exactly as they wish. OF
course. that is their right, but it is
also their right to make the second
story of their house Louis XIV and the
first story Gothic. Why should they
not avail themselves Of the experts
knowledge in finishing their rooms as
in planning and designing the house?
Take an example where so many
people 90 wrong-that is, the colorS
used In the various rooms. Color is a
subtle thing and should be handled
with respect. A room which opens
into another should have color
scheme which more or less harmonizes
with it. Curtains. hangings, rugs and
chairs should all form part Of the en-
semble.

Mere Milk From, Fewer Cows

Mere Milk From, Fewer Cows
The number OF mix cows on the
farms Ct the United States has chang
ed only slightly in recent years. Tie
number Increased from 21,40s,000 in
1921 to 22,523,Ooo in 1925, and then
decreased to 21,824,0oo last year and
81, $4,000 on Jan. /, 1929. Production
has kept up, largely because of better
breeding and feeding OF the smaller
number CT cows. The number of year.
ling heifers and heller calves kept for
milk cows is now larger than fer last
year, hut is less than one per cent
larger than the number ordinarily re-
CURED to maintain the present number
of milk cows. Changes in the number
Of cows MIXED during the next two
years will depend, says o. E. Reed,
chief of the Bureau of Dairy Industy,

the price OF beef and the price OF
