Wyoming Develops
New Dat Variety

SHORT, STRONG STRAW, high
yield, and resistance to disease
those features have been incorpor-
ated into Cody, new white oat.
Tested by the agricultural expert
ment station of the University of
Wyoming since 1914, the new va
riety has been found well adapted
to Wyoming's growing conditions,
according to Dale w. Belmont, as
sistant agronomist in charge of the
tests.
1t has been released in co-opera-
ton with the u. S. department of
agriculture under the accession num-
Der c. I. 1916.
Cody is the result of crossing Ban
mock with Observation-Disclosures cross,
Belmont points out in a bulletin
just issued by the experiment sta
ton. Richards excellent grain
characters, short, stiff straw, and re-
sistance from stem rust, and Vic
toria's resistance to crown rust and
smut, were combined with the good
qualities of Bannock, high-yield-
ing, smut-resistant midseason oat, he
states.
In comparison of yields at four ir-
rigated sections of Wyoming, Cody
has constantly outyielded Bannock
and Markton. The Swear average
of Cody was $50 bushels per acre,
compared with 81.1 bushels for Ban
mock and 77.2 for Markton in the
same period.
Cody was equal to Markton on
four dryland stations with yield
of 50.4 bushels per acre. compared
with 44.9 bushels from Brunker.

D. T.. Area Builders
Set January Record
With 1,4OO Homes

Builders in the Washington area
broke all previous January records
by putting 1,400 single-family
homes under way, the Bureau of
Labor Statistics reported today.
This was 10 per cent more than
the number started in December,
and SO per cent more than those
started in January a year ago-the
previous high peak for that month
in the metropolitan area.
High contraseasonal activity
also was experienced in February
and can be expected for March,
since the volume of building per-
mits issued during January ex-
ceeded that for December by over
40 per cent and that for January,
1850. by the same amount, BIS
said.
The increase in activity for
January, 1851, over December,
1850. was particularly notable
in single-family dwellings to be
built in the District alone, the
agency pointed out.
Multifamily dwelling construc-
tion was off sharply in January
from the December level to one
of the lowest points in many
years.
Work was started on only 90
apartment units during the month.
The total of both single-f family
dwellings and apartment units
started in January, ,490-was
only slightly above the number
for which construction began
during December.
BIS pointed out that the high
volume Of new single family
homes started in January was the
result largely to the great num-
ber Of "easy-credit" applications
filed with FHA and VA just be-
fore strict down-payment curbs
were put in effect.

New Booklet Assists
In Planning Proper
Wiring for Homes
By D. M. Derwin

An excellent guide for designers
and builders to use in the plan
ming of electrical kitchens, laun-
dries, heating, health features
lighting and wiring has just been
issued.
The 19-page booklet presents
ideas on electrical planning
through photographs, diagrams
and sketches which, when used
either all or in part, will make
that house not only better today,
but increase its value in the fu-
ture market.
In covering the planned kitch-
en-, the booklet deals with the
range, refrigerator. garbage dis
posal, dishwasher and venJilating
fan. Electric outlets should be
conveniently located for use at the
kitchen counter surfaces, and fuse
less loadcenters should also be
conveniently placed. the booklet
says. Lighting should be good
at the ceiling, over the sink and
at the counters. Such a kitchen.
scientifically planned to save steps,
saves time and saves work, is also
cooler and easier to clean.
Automatic laundry equipment
has completely changed home
laundries. Now each unit. COM
pletely modern in appearance. can
be located in the open. on the
first floor, near the kitchen or
combined with the breakfast room.
Health features are more in de-
mand because today's buyers-like
the American public-is health
conscious. Several electrical
features which can be considered
in the plans are sunlamps, germi-
cidal lamps for killing bacteria.
and an electronic air cleaner.
Proper lighting also adds dis
tinctive character to a house.
This booklet shows the detail Of
cove and recessed ceiling lighting
and presents several schemes for
valance lighting installation. It
also covers. closet lighting. cornice
and pinhole spot lighting. and
kitchen lighting.

Solve FeltiuG Problem

LaundrieB have solved the felt

Of washing equipment that uses
only a circulation Of the soap Solu-

has a very slowmoving cylinder
(about 8 to 10 revolutions per min

PIeo To Service
Men For LEGION

Every veteran of World War II

big debt which he can repay with
only a token" installment once a
year. It is the debt of gratitude
which he owes the American
Legion for all of the innumerable
benefits, rights and privileges
which are his today under the ex-
isting state and federal legisla-
ton. He can discharge this debt
by paying his annual membership
dues in the American Legion"

pay! 8.2l6,O3i drew unemploy-
mcnt compensation Other mil
lions got schooling, home loans,
business loans, medical care, pen
sions and dependents benefits"
Didn't just Happen
Commander Blackburn empha-
sized that all these benefits didn't
happen They were fought for,
labored for, bitterly and unceas-
ingly by the American Legion"
1T has always stood on the
