Adapt Architecture to
Stvle of the Locality
First Floor Plan.

Can America adopt modern architec-
tEre and, at the same time, preserve
those distinctive features that have
seen developed through centuries in
the colonial mansions of the South, the
red brick homes Of New England, the
Spanfsh-infiuenced buildings of the
Southwest, and in other widely scat
tered regions?
The answer, unlikely as 1t may seem,
is EYES," according to Walter Il. Kill
ham. widely known architect, who
points out in the American Architect
Magazine that the feat is being accom-
plished in New England.
At Westborough, Mass, the recently
completed town hall has followed de-
sign of clean modern lines and strik-
fnely effective angles without rejecting
the deep red brick walls or slate roofing
which has marked New England archi-
lecture for centuries. In conservative
Boston an outstanding industrial build
ing has similarly adapted the modern
idea to local atmosphere and materials.
Mr.. Kilham warns American archi-
tects and the public interested in arch
itecture that America, because OF its
wide range of climate, topography and
other regional differences, cannot ex-
pect to create single nationwide
style of modern architecture, or to bor-
row one bodily from any European ma
ton. A building effective in fiat Kan
sas would seem entirely out of place
In rolling New England or among the
oaks of Louisiana, he points out.
"Modern design, if it lives, must pos
sess the element of appropriateness,
he saws. "The Gothic, for example,
with its large windows and pointed
roofs, was appropriate in northern
countries, but did not flourish in the
South. Similarly, modern design can
not confine itself to fiat roofs and cor
niceless walls if it is going to survive
In America. If it is able to assimilate
pitched roofs, double-hung sash and
local materials, its great principles of
clean lines, lustrous surfaces and free
dom from useless decoration should as
sure for it a brilliant career, and one
which will take full advantage of the
decorative possibilities latent in the
play of light and shade on clean walls
and the projection Of colors on flat or
curved surfaces.

Large Number of Lambs
Marketed Never Docked

i considerable number of the
lambs produced in Iowa and The
surrounding states are grown and
marketed without having their
tails locked. According to counts
made at some of the Midwest live
stock markets. as high as 20 per
cent of the native lambs sold dur
ing the summer and fall months
have full length tails.
Failure to dock is source of
loss in two ways. The long tails
covered with wool collect dirt and
filth and invite flies of various
types to lay their eggs here. AS a
result, maggots hatch and cause
unthriftiness and sickness and
even death. The second source OF
loss is lower selling price received.
This lower price is. partly due TO
less desirable appearance, and
partly due to lack of uniformity
in size and condition, due to handi.
caps coming from failure to dock.

Stops Floor Vibration

When floors vibrate, causing china
and glassware to rattle, it Is an indi-
cation that the joists are not deep
enough for their span. For instance,
perhaps 8 by IS We're used when 2
by los would have been better. The
joists cannot be removed; therefore it
is necessary to shorten the span. This
can be done by placing 4 By at
right angles to the joists and support
ing this by two by 6 columns from
the ground. These should be wadged
tightly so that the joists may be well
supported. q

Use Cod Liver Oil

With dark, gloomy days at hand
it is time to provide the laying hens
with cod liver oil to take the place
of sunshine. The value of this vita
min D is that ii stimulates better
utilization of the minerals in
the feed, enabling the birds to use
the surplus materials not needed
for body maintenance and for pro-
duction of egg shells. The best
method Is to add two quarts to each
100 pounds of feed, or to use good
commercial feed that already con-
tains the vitamin in proper proper,
ton. If mixed at home. put the oil
with small amount of feed and
then mix this in the larger supply.

Rot-Proof Woods Best

Decay attacks indoor as well as ex-
terror wood trim, so for that reason it
is well to use those woods that are
decay-resistant.
White pine. sugar pine, chestnut, cy-

woods that fall in this class. Other

Fowls for Breeding

Only the most vigorous fowls
should be used in the breeding
pens. The vigorous bird has a
well-curyed beak. prominent clear
eyes, a relatively deep, broad head,
with bright color In comb and wat
ties. The back is broad and car
ries level to the tail. A full breast
and well-developed abdomen give
the body a rectangular appearance.
The legs are squarely placed and
stand wide apart at the knees. This
description applies to both males
and females. The appearance alone
may be deceptive. however, and it
cannot always be relied upon to
measure vigor. The number of
chicks that hatch and live to three
weeks of age from 100 eggs set is a
better measure of the inherent
strength of a pair of individuals

On the same date the price paid
farmers for the things he sells av-

On the basis of these two index fig

listed at 48, or So per cent below pre-

Farm prices improved slightly during

index rating of 10l. Purchasing power
then was listed at so, exactly one
half of the 1909-14 period.
The bureau found prices paid by
farmers in mid-April were exactly
equal to the average from 1909 to 1914,
being indexed at 100, further drop
from February and March. But the
squirt in farm commodity prices moved
that index to SO, with purchasing
power also listed at SO, gain of five

New Faces in Congress

Mich, 'an ordinary business
L man elected to Congress with
very little knowledge of con-
80 years experience in business in the
community in which he has lived all his
life-since May %, 1873"
He was engaged for about IS years
in the amusement business with three
theaters in Lansing and an interest
in other theaters throughout the State.
He has also been engaged in both
the wholesale and retail mercantile

porations and institutions, and so have

tions from that angle"
