Wave you noticed the scarcity of houses in Decatur? We are getting- three to five calls a day from people who tell us they have searched the town over for suitable dwellings and without results. The f yrty-eigM new houses to be built by the government will help but we'seriously doubt if they will provide all that is needed. We expect a building boom of safe dimensions during the next few months. _____________ Two hundred and forty-eight men have been assigned to the homestead project here and the sum of! $22,212 to pay them for their labor has been apnropriattd. This does not include the building of the homes, which will be let by contract and will cost about $125,000. The work is to start immediately, to tile information received and this community is steppout of any depression that may j hare hovered about the past few weeks.

will cooperate, and we are sure most of them will, there is no reason why every one able to work and who wants to can find a place. , Demands from factories and from other sources, highways, bridges, new buildings, etc., should more than take up any slack in the unemployment sitnation, which is rapidly vanishing. The unusual interest manifested in tills years election is evidenced by the fact that a total of 10.975 have registered, a splendid record tor those who attended to the work I ind to the voters in general. This Is 2,258 more than the votes cast for the candidates for secretary of state, for the candidates of the two major parties, in the last election, when the total was 8,717. If all of these vote in the coming primary, •he decision should at least represent the will of the people. The selection of delegates to the state conventions is one of the Important jobs of the voters this year and should be done with the greatest interest. These men and women i will represent Adams county at j these meetings which will select I candidates for United States seni ator and most of the state offices. • excepting governor. Send dele- ' gates to these conventions who will I remember Adams county's importance and who will use good judgment in the selection of nominees who will render good service. Dr. Wirt has tagged them and a i fellow named Todd, whose racket lis the publication of the Soviet Tass News is the wild-eyed bird whom he charges as having referred to President Roosevelt as the “Kerensky" of the American revolution. Wirt also named six I others as having talked the matter! over at a dinner which he attend | ed. Todd holds no position with the government and the entire mat-1 ter is apparently far fetched as I every one has suspected. So that's I that and the country still lives. It is worth while noting that during our long period of depression the strong life insurance companies of the country have carried on in an admirable way and have been an important factor in stimulating the morale of both financiers and the people. Since the business of the life insurance companies is exI tended to all classes of people and ■ their investments are widely diversified, it is clear that the wise handling of their business does much to stimulate business in general and to provide employment. Last year one of the large companies paid out $11*0,000,090 in benefits of various kinds to its policy holders and their dependents. This distribution was made as a right, and not in the form of doles or charity. Other companies made ■ large distributions and at the same time increased their own assets, this constituting an important factor in the financial stability of the nation.—Elkhart Truth. — o • TWEN'Bw’years * AGO TODAY From the Dally Democrat File April 11—The Amos Yoder barn destroyed by fire which threatens nearby buiiuings for an hour or two.

(WAT IS 1 .ejQjRF I HOME /WTH 1 The New Type of Broccoli

One of the old-fashioned vege-! tables that has yielded its difficult culture to the scientific methods | of the seedsmen is broccoli. Orig-1 inally, the white, or cauliflower- i like broccolis were grown only on the Pacific coast to any extent be-' cause ot the peculiar crimaticj conditions required by them, mak- ] ing this useful vegetable almost ] unknown in the rest of the coun-! try. With the development of the new Italian green sprouting variety, this situation was reversed to allow anyone with a taste for this delectable vegetable to grow it in his own garden. The old types of broccoli were almost identical with the cauliflower. They had the same white curd, and the same taste. The newgreen type, however, is distinctly different, with a new appearance and a new flavor. Dense heads of green flower buds spring up from the thick, faseiated stems, and unlike the cauliflower and white curded bro' ] eolis, these heads are of perfect, flowers, and not the degenerate | forms such as the “curd’’ of the white types. They cannot stand! too long in the market or in the! garden or buds will begin to open j into yellow mustard-like flowers, j The leaves of the broccoli plant ] are somewhat too tart tor the

The thick stems near i the flower heads, however, are edible aard have r flavor as excel-: ' lent as the heads themselves. j , Garden culture is comparatively i simple. Broc.olis are grown ini much the same manner as cabi bages. One advantage over the , cauliflower is that the heads need , not be tied up, and when cut, a ] new growth of side branches is • ] developed which are almost as i delicious as the first crop. Set them out in rows about 2 feet apart, with th-> individual plants a foot or 18 inches apart. Seed should be sown new tor an early ■ crop in the garden. The green sprouting broccoli 1 will not only prove an interesting i novelty- for the garden but will furnish a tasty addition to the table. It may be boiled with ] Hollandaise sauce or merely serv-' ed with a dressing of melted but-1 ter. The solidiiy of its stems necessitates slightly longer cook- j ling than cabbage or cauliflower.] I but do not overcook. 0 IVANTED— Gfxwi. clean, big Rags, suitable for cleaning machinery.
