state enabling act of 1920. II
stands, rather, as a separate and
distinct legislative measure
Boston, therefore, probably is the
only city in the United States
which has been zoned directly
by a state legislative act. 1t is
a matter of record that the near
est approach to a coming law
thus adopted was the appoint
inent by the Congress in 1920 OF
| a special commission with coming
powers for Washington.
In Massachusetts cities and
towns other than Boston, it is
possible under the enabling act to
adopt coming measure or ordin-
ance through action of the city
or town government. 1t was
originally hoped that Boston
might be so zoned, but it was
found necessary eventually to
put it through the Legislature
rather than to the mayor and
council, because the Boston
building code, which is so closely
related to coming is a state act,
and it was held by the best legal
opinion that the city government
could not change specific action
already taken by a higher au-
thority.
Zoning, then, is action by a
state or a city under authority of
the state, to control, under police
power: A
Cd The heights to which
buildings may be erected;
(2) The area of lots which
must be left not built upon:
and
(3) The uses to which
buildings and land may be
put.
Or, more in detail, coming is a
conscious, intelligent effort to di-
rect the future development of a
community by means of reason
able regulations based on health,
safety and convenience, and the
welfare of the inhabitants.
Good housekeeping seeks to
provide a place for everything,
and to keep everything in its
place. Thus does coming. And
like wise business management,
it makes provision for orderly
growth and industrial expansion.
Existing buildings and existing
uses are not affected by zoning
laws, for coming laws are not re-
troactive in any regard whatever.
But all new construction must go
in an appropriate district.
In the words of another writ
er, "zoning stabalizes and pro-
tects property values and invest
ments. 1t divides a community
into districts for residential, bust
ness and industrial uses. 1t pro-
tects the homes in residential Sec
tions from loss of valuation due
to encroachment of business or
of industry. 1t affords districts in
which industrial and commercial
enterprises may safely locate
without fear of protest and with
every facility to do business. II
ensures permanence of character
of districts when once establish
ed, permitting and encouraging
the orderly growth of residential

through. Two weeks later a 20
year private restriction ran out or
a row of apartment houses next
to the Aldermen's home. In
.stantly an application for the
right to build stores in two front
porches came into the office of
the Building Commissioner. Be
cause a temporary zoning ordi-
nance was in effect, the blot
never stained the escutcheon.
And since that day the under
taking Alderman has been one of
the city's strongest adherents of
coming and city plan.

Steady Egg Production
Key to Poultry Success

Manage the laying flock to keep
production above the SO per cent
level every month of the year.
That's new years resolution rec
commended TO Minnesota poultrymen
by Cora Cooke, extension poultry
specialist, University farm, ST.
Paul.
The flock that was highest in the
1888 record flock project sponsored
by the Minnesota agricultural ex-
tension service proved that steady
production is safe from the stand
point of the hens and builds produc-
ton that means profit. The top
placing flock of 189 hens averaged
22l eggs per hen during the year.
Most significant, however, was the
fact that the flock placed among the
10 high producing fiocks in of the
IL months.

The Oldest Code

Hammurabi, the king of Babylon,
formulated his code about 1900 B.
c., much earlier than the laws OF
Manu- or of Moses. The pillar con-
tanning the code was unearthed in
1902 in the acropolis mound at Susa
It contained about 5000 lines OF
writing in 40 columns, some five of
which were practically erased. The
code was divided into about 280
clauses and opens with the words:
Law and justice | established in
the land. | made happy the hui
man race in those days" Exact
laws were laid down governing la
Dor, wages, witchcraft, sanctity of
oath, requirement for written evil
dence, public duties of officials,
moral laws which were exceeding
ly strict, protection of legal and per-
sonal rights of women, laws of di-
vorce and alimony and practically
every human activity.

EAR-TAGS REVEAL
DAIRY CRIMINALS
Is Equivalent to Finger
Printing in Humans.

Equivalent to finger-printing in
humans, is the "ear-tagging" sys-
tenn that reveals dairy cows and
families that are enemies to profit
able dairy farming.
New York state is one of the
states cooperating with the United
States bureau of dairy industry at
Washington in permanently identi-
flying all animals in dairy herd i'm
provement associations, according
to Professor S. ]. BroWnell of the
Cornell agricultural extension serv-
ice.
The purpose of the identification
and permanent records is not only
to apprehend the dairy criminals,
he says, but to eliminate the UNI
favorable influences in breeding flu
ture dairy cattle. Every cow is put
on her own production record and
farmers get complete analysis of
breeding efficiency which reveals
the value of every bull in every
dairy-herd improvement association
breed.
The system locates and Identifies
outstanding brood cows for selec-
ton of breeding stock and provides
a means of tracing family strains.
The records are analysed to identify
an inheritance for high ability in
producing milk and butterfat, and
the influence of these superior ami
mails may then be disseminated
throughout the general dairy cow
population.
The same principle applies in Off
cial testing with breed organizations
which record the "fingerprinted"
cows and bulls. Both purebreds and
grades need more of it, says Pro-
lessor BroWnell.

Natural Caves in France
Are Bomb-Proof Shelters

Few countries are so fortunate as
France in the matter of ready-made
AFRAID shelters.
Particularly in the north and east
are these dugouts to be found. They
are a relic of the war-like Middle
ages when almost every village
was provided with such a refuge.
Often a natural cave, which had
been carefully enlarged. would re-
ceive the villagers and their cattle.
The most famous of these hidden
refugees is the underground city
Of Naours, near Amiens. 1t con-
tains a great number of chambers
SO arranged that their entrances do
not face each other-private apart
ments, as it were. There is also a
large hall, and one chamber shows
traces Of having been used as a
chapel
Not far from this lis another ref
uge, this time a tunnel SO yards
long with rooms ON each side.
To-day census OF these caves is
being taken This is part Of the
local anti-aircraft precautions. Be-
fore long the dugouts will be fitted
up for use if needed
The cave of Naours were well
known to the Australian soldiers
during the Great war. On the chalk
walls of the caves, almost as fresh
as when penciled 20 or more years
ago, are the names Of hundreds of
Australians, often with drawing OF
the regimental badge. Answers.
