Help Prevent Fires
On Farms for Victory

One OF the best means OF fire
prevention on the farm is running
water under pressure. At this time
when the nation is facing material
shortages, and when requirements
of farm buildings must be kept at
minimum. the electric water
system is an important factor in
the conservation of equipment
necessary for the Food for Vic
tory" program.

There has also been a consider
able number of farms sold in the
last few months. More buyers are
Investing in farm as a place for
future independence.
Real estate continues 10 be the
ISoundest investment that can be
lmade, and with the continued talk
of probable initiation more buyers
are beginning 10 think this way.
II is therefore the duty of the real
estate broker to advise his client.
1t is dangerous TO be an adviser,
but yet that is one duty the
broker must assume.
Properly chosen, real estate,
vacant or improved, can be bought
today on better terms, or more
equitable values. than at any time
i'm the last decade. 1t is the
brokers' duty to know his mer-
lchandise. With this knowledge
there is reason to believe that 1913
will be a good year for all real
estate brokers who conform
strictly to the high ideals of
lrealtors.

FILA Offers Suggestions
For Keeping Value of Home

The need for keeping up repairs
on the home is greater now than
ever before.
However. do not interpret that
statement TO mean you should go
out and hire a contractor and have
your house gone over completely.
That isn't the case, and the
chances are you wouldn't be able
to get it done anyway.
But 1t is important, extremely
important, that all repairs neces-
sary to keep your home in good,
sound condition should be attended
TO without delay. Repairs that are
grow -rapidly.in size, and
so does the mending cost.

Strain the Paint

After thorough stirring, paint or
enamel should be strained through
cheesecloth or an old silk stocking
to make sure of it's freedom from
any undissolved particles, if a flaw
less finish is essential for the
painting job.

Homes
Old Commercial Buildings
Used for War Housing

The search for additional hous-
ing TO take care of war workers
in crowded production centers has
uncovered many commercial build
ings which are standing idle or
which are Improbable in their
present use. Because these build
ings are already standing and
usually have some water and
plumbing facilities, they can be
converted into dwelling units with
a minimum of critical materials.
Changing these structures into
dwellings is principally a matter

new wall and ceiling coverings and

Three new developments in the

board instead of steel.

Modern Radiators
Are Space Savers

Modern space-sSyingJ radiators
not only are more compact when
installed but also save valuable
shipping space. At this time, when
transportation facilities are at a
premium, attention is called to the
fact that there is $500 feet of
radiating surface in a carload of
slender tube radiation as compared
with only $500 feet in a carload
of large tube radiation.

Thawine Pipes

There are only two safe ways TO
thaw pipes. These are by the use
of electricity or steam. Another
method which, while safe, has the
disadvantage of being very slow, is
the wrapping of hot cloths around
a frozen pipe.

Well Finished,
Insulated Attic
Saves Money

O1f properly done, finishing the
attic will reduce fuel bills as well
as create a new source of revenue.
Building the. walls and ceilings
with a board that insulates as it
builds will cut the heat loss
through the roof by as much as
SO per cent
The material comes in three
types. Building board, in large
sheets, will cover large areas
quickly and with little carpentry.
Narrow units, known as planks,
come in varying widths and can
be formed into many attractive
designs. Small square or rectang-
ular units, called tiles. are
especially suited for patterned
ceilings.

GROW IN SIZE
These are just a few of the.
many repairs necessary TO keep.
a home in good working condition
They are just a few of the places.
where trouble can develop. And.
they should not be neglected. Me-
elected repairs quickly grow in.
size and the cost of making them
increases in greater proportion.
1t is the duty of every home
owner to keep his property in a.
good liva6Ie condition. When they
are neglected, properties soon
begin to run down and decrease in
value. So it is up TO every home
owner to protect his own equity
in his home, and also TO prevent
real estate values from falling.

WOULD GUARD
AGAINST POST
WAR BREAKDOWN

How to guard against a post
war breakdown of society among
both military forces and civilians
was the central theme of spe-
cial service held at the Seventh
day Adventist Church recently
1t was urged that 1.-THE confla-
grafton of war leaves in its wake
broken bodies, broken homes,
broken cities, and broken ma
tons, with the inevitable break
down of moral standards.
The relation of liquor drink
ing to these conditions of the
future was strongly set forth by
F. C. Carrier, of Washington,
D. C., in a special temperance
sermon prepared for this occa-
sion. Mr.. Carrier is the execu-
tive secretary of the American
Temperance Society, and is lead
ing Seventh-day Adventis
churches in nationwide vigor-
Gus educational campaign against
liquor.
Having served overseas in the
first World War, he warned that
the man in uniform should be
fortified against the drinking OF
alcohol in any form. If not, he
said, he is very likely to turn to
intoxicants for solace when meet
ing the horrors of war. Unless
fortified by deep religious mo-
tives and a thorough knowledge
of the danger of intoxicants
there is little then to keep him
from going off the deep end, .
said Mr.. Carrier. Looking for.
ward, he added, Alcohol in all
its forms will wreak havoc in
our postwar civilization.
