CAPITAL ADVANCES
IN ARCHITECTURE
Notable Progress Made in
Apartment Buildings in
Past 5 Years.

Alphabetically, notable advances have
been made in Washington's growing
list of apartment buildings, especially
In the past five years. This is found
by some observers to apply to the ex-
terror of the buildings and their sur
roundings as we'll as to interior plans.
This improvement in apartment
house design, which back in the early
days of its development here was sub
iect to criticism, has been brought
about by two main reasons, some be-
lieve.
One is the rising appreciation of the
beauty that is Washington and the
responsibility that rests upon local
builders to create new structures in
Keeping with the national character
of the Capital City, on which the Fed
eral Government is spending millions
in Identification work.
Another is the demands of apart
ment tenants for pleasing and COM
Portable housing in apartments, a de-
mand which builders in numerous cases
are striving to reach and at the same
time keeping rental costs within the
bounds of prospective tenants.
Apartment architects and builders in
recent years have been giving more at
tention to the desirability of providing
adequate lawns, Fairgrounds and land
scaped approaches to apartment build
ings. This has provided not only an
advantage to tenants of such buildings,
but has served to improve the general
appearance of apartment sections.
Aside from preventing the appearance
of overcrowding of buildings and form
ing canyons of adjoining streets, 1t has
assured more light and air for the
apartment buildings, an advantage from
the health point of view.
Further, it is found by some observ-
ers that more attention has been given
in recent years, generally speaking. to
the actual design of apartment build
ings. This does not mean that some
of the older apartment buildings may
not be better designed than some of
the very newest ones, but taken by and
large, opinion seems to be that on the
whole more consideration is now being
given to appearance than formerly.

CORN SALVAGED
FOR FEED USE

HAGERSTOWN. Md, Aug. 3.
Realizing that the bulk Of the
corn crop in this section has been
killed by the long drought and
intense hot wave, farmers are
Salvaging as much Of it as pos
Sible for use during the winter
to feed to their cattle, cutting the
corn and storing 1t in Silos.
In q checkup made in the
county, it was found that farm
erS are almost unanimous in the
opinion that there is no hope for
the corn, even If rains should
come. The most optimistic esti-
mates only place the crop at
about 20 per cent Of normal.
The sugar corn sections are
also hard hit and this crop has
been reduced to a minimum. The
bean and practically all other
vegetable crops. including toma-
toes, are proportionately damaged
and some of them viii be COM
