this year for their crop planting.
The smaller sum was given the de-

agricultural portion of the billion and
half in debentures which the corpora

from the Treasury.
! The reconstruction unit may not
need to raise this money at all, and
is certainly unlikely to go after 1t now.
The Agriculture Department may have
immediate use for its entire share. The
question is whether the farm share of
the fund may be raised independently
or only in proportion to that needed

Farmers in every State are entitled to

has been set up to handle the farm

Inventor Has Idea of
Houses by the Quart

Buttons collar studs. the backs of
hairbrushes, and all kinds of things
are already made from milk, and
now comes an inventor who proposes
to turn the COW into provider Of
building materials for houses. He
claims that casein, or solicited milk,
Is an ideal substance for the purpose,
since it is easy to work and would
make it possible to erect soundproof
and draught-proof buildings.
His villas are to be planned on
novel lines. Instead of digging down
for the foundations, he is going to
erect large mast. The house hangs
from framework erected round this
and provided with ball bearings.
The idea is that you can turn it just
as you like in order to bring any
room at will into the sunshine or the
shade.
1t isrto be doubted, though, wheth-
er the new idea will catch on, for
few people desire dwellings in which
they will be permanently "up the
