observation-disclosures will get great satisfaction from the
survey of local housing conditions made by the Federal
Housing Administration and the Department Of Com
merce.
ACCORDING TO THE SURVEY APPROXIMATELY
FIFTY THREE PER CENT OF ALL RESIDENCES
IN THE COMMUNITY ARE OWNED BY THOSE
WHO OCCUPY THEM.
There is nothing that giUes greater stability to
city than large percentage of OUner-Occupiers OF
resident properties and it can readily be seen from
these Government figures that Washington is city
firmly established in this regard.
There is tendency to regard Washington as city
with transient population in which large groups drift
into and out of the city on political tides.
Even among WashingtonianS who have lived here for
considerable time this tendency is noted and there Is
inclination to accept the belief.
This housing survey, however, gives ample basis for
casting this long held belief into the discard.
PEOPLE WHO OWN AND OCCUPY THEIR OWN
HOMES DON'T DRIFT OUT OF A COMMUNITY
WITHOUT SUBSTANTIAL CAUSE AND WITH THE
SURVEY SHOWING FIFTY THREE PER CENT OF
OWNER OCCUPANCY 1T IS OBVIOUS THAT THESE
FOLK FIND WASHINGTON SATISFACTORY
PLACE FOR INVESTMENT IN THEIR DOMICILES.
Moreover the survey gathered figures on the length
of time these owners have owned and occupied their
homes and they show that in than per
cent of the cases the residents have occupied their
homes for ten years or more
On the whole the survey porrays gratifying situa-
ton in regard to home ownership and occupancy.
It shows to be goundless any fear that anyone may
have had that this community is not continuing grow
ing and developing city of substantial folks.
The recent wholesale increases in population
shown by Census Bureau figures and these ownership
occupancy figures confirm the communltys faith In
itself.

The English magazine, "Tatler," publishes the

of ladies playing polo:
'Polo in it's origin was a definitely masculine

ISTANBUL

Recent years have brought great
changes to many lands. In sew.
eral countries the physical changes
have been tremendous, so great
that some towns, especially prin-
cipal cities, have been practically
rebuilt.
One Of the outstanding exam
pies Of this is the city that was
once. Constantinople, now called
Istanbul. True, it still stands by
the Bosporus, it still has a harbor
that is second to none, it still ex,
ercises a potent fascination for
those who care for the exotic, but
it is to all intents and purposes
an entirely different city.
Tourists who steamed up the
DardanelleS years ago and saw the
glittering panorama of CONSTANT.
nople will rejoice to know that
the same enchanting picture may
be seen today. The first view of
the Golden Horn still has all the
bewitching beauty that makes SUI
perlatives seem inadequate. The
same domeS of San Sophia rise
like rose-colored clouds above the
lovely green cypress trees. The
minaretS of the great Mosque OF
Suleiman, white, slender, proud
and graceful, still CLEAN against
the incredibly blue sky. The walls
of the palaces still glitter in the
sun and are reflected in the linn
pid waters.
But within the city all is
changed. Wandering again
through the streets of Istanbul,
one can study a nation in transi,
ton and see what marvellous
changes can be wrought by one
determined man.

STATE LEADING
ENTIRE COUNTRY
IN COW TESTING

One-sixth of all the COWS under
production test in the United States
are in California; more COWS are on
test in this state than in any other
state. These figures are made pub
lie by G. E. Gordon, dairy special
ist in the University of California
Agricultural Extension Service, who
has just received them from the
Dairy Industry Bureau of the Unit
ed States Department of Agricul-
ture.
In the United States there are 404,-
412 COWS on test; in California there
are 66,630 New York is second with
50,863 and Wisconsin third with
41,641. Pennsylvania is the only
other state with more than half the
number under test in California.
California has 10 per cent of all COWS
in the state under test. Rhode Is
land is second with "a per cent and
New Jersey is third with 81 per cent.
The report shows that California
has had an increase of 4,817 COWS
under test in the last year Since
January l, two new associations for
testing have been organized.
The testing work is being carried
on to furnish basis for culling out
low producers, feeding according to
production, and for the development
of constructive breeding programs.
The increase in number of COWS
under test in this state, according
to Gordon, shows dairying men
have found the work helpful
