RAT EXTERMINATOR IS SURE DEATH Powder Causes Rodents to Die Out of Doors. During the last few years the menace of ever-increasing number of rats has brought grief to property owners. One way in wrhich this menace has proved obnoxious to home owners through the damage to shrubbery. Investigations have proved rats are mak ing their way from the country into the cities and becoming fat on the tulip bulbs and other flower garden delicacies. Albert Maas. 31 Virginia Ave., handles an exterminator that has worked successfully. This remedy is much less poisonous to the human than the usual exterminator. “Another advantage our remedy has is that we absolutely guarantee none of the rats will die between the walls or under the flooring.” Maas said. “This powder causes a. great depletion l in oxygen in the blood. Consequently 1 the rat seeks access to the air. “The exterminator has been sucI cessfully used by the Government. Notable examples of this work tire found in the cane raising districts of | the Hawaiian and Philltpine Islands, where millions of rats have been i killed.*’ HOUSE SHOULD HAVE BESI PAINE Marion Company Provides High-Grade Product. Changeable weather conditions prevalent in Indiana have made it necessary to have paint prepaied accord ing to certain specifications. For many years the products of the Marion Pain Company. 358-6tj y. Meridian St., with a branch at 123 X. Alabama St., have been demonstrating their protective abilities. They have proved when they are properly applied they will not lose their original color, nor will they flake, check, blister or chalk. According to C. E. Utley, manager of the company, the severe test imposed by the varying weather conditions. has made it imperative for the purchaser of paint to consider quality ami be certair no fillers or adulterants are used, and that only pure carbonate of lead, oxide of zinc, and pure color pigments, properly mixed and ground, are employed The policy of the Marion Paint Company of selling direct from the factory- to the consumer enables the i purchaser to get paint of guaranteed j quality, eliminating at the same time i middleman's profit

FIRMS ATTENDS TO CONSTRUCTION FLANS ANO WORK Local Corporation Will Finance Building and Complete Job. Realizing every one wants a home, not just an apartment, nor a rented house, but something of his own, something that will reflect his personality, the Indiana Builders' Cor poration, llul-02 Eetncke building, has come to assist those who intend building. This company seems to bridge the gap between the builder and the expense of engaging an architect, for its work includes drawing plans by competent and experienced draftsmen employed by the company, incorporating the ideas the builder wish. s. The plans are made and submitted to the prospective owner and definitely decided upon and from then until the house is finished the company takes full charge of the work. “Statistics have proved," said Mr. Kimmic.k. president of the corporation, "that the fewer concerns involved in the construction of a house the less the house will cost. This is true simply because everybody interested must come in for a share of profit. “We try to work for the best interest of the client in arranging for the construction of the house. We take m any property the client wishes to turn in on the new house and pay him ap praised value, thus relieving him of the worry anil delay necessitated if he had to turn the property himself Wo find this has been a feature much appreciated by builders. “The average builder _ wants his home to lie just as attractive, just as convenient, just as near a perfect combination of comfort and beauty as possible, yet he must have it at a comparatively moderate >-osi. lie comes to us and it is our business to servo him to the best of our ability The average man cannot Jrivo knowledge needed in the proper planning of a home an,d needs the help men experienced in the an of draftmansliip can give.” To Entertain Rare Drivers May of the drivers in the Speedway races will be entertained by the Exchange Club at a "race day luncheon" Friday, at the Eirieoln.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Substantially built of red brick, the home of Mr. and Mrs. William J. Callahan. 7t'2. N. Riley Ave , typifies the dependability and strength the average American likes to have his home embody. The depth of the bouse indicates sufficient room, the wide porch bespeaks friendliness and comfort and the square plan is one the average person pictures to himself as just the kind of a house he would like White trim accents the general outline without becoming too ennspicious. A drive leads from the street past the north side of the house to a garage. As is tiie plan of houses built at the present time, one outers a long living room from the front jsirch. The length <>f tho room is somewhat broken by the stairway at the north of the room. One attractive feature of the living room is the woodwork; beveling of the same lustrous dark wood outlines the ceiling. A fireplace takes up a great deal of the south end of the ropin, while a music alcove In the northern end seems to greet the guests there. The furnishings of the room are harmonious in character and color. Most unusual is the at tractive ness of the dining-room opening out of the living-room with windows taking up

IMPROVEMENT IS MADE TOFURNACE Heating Plant Should Correspond With Home, There are few products used m the construction and the equipment of a home not manufactured in Indianapolis. An Indianapolis product recently improved by its manufacture is the Escol furnace, named after the men responsible for Us perfection, Hyman Escol, pioneer in the: local furnace business. The improvement is a reinforcement in the pail of the radiator exposed to the most intense heat, this inset being of cast iron and less impervious than steel. Jri this climate, where it Ls ne<-es sary to have a furnace running over so much of the year. it. is important that a builder gives careful thought to the furnace he installs and sees that it ts installed by experienced people. The first cost of a furnace is not the greatest. Unless the furnace is high grade find properly placed the upkeep wi|l be greatly increased and satisfaction will lie low ered. Care should be. given to the slz of a furnace, for if the furnace is too small the jtouse will be insufficiently heated and the furnace, due tc over loading, will uot last and not givo the mechanical satisfaction it would in a smaller house. If the furnace is larger than needed, the expense, both initial and upkeep, will be greater than necessary. NAMED BUREAU MANAGER Ralph Bales Goes to Louisville Botvcr Business Body.

COCO PLUMBING IST IMPORTANT Buschmann Company Has al New Payment Plan, The advantage the average Amur! i can home has over homes m foreign | lands lies principally in perfection of j the plumbing. Builders realize a house is only as comfortable as his plumbing is per feet. To insure best results it is nee-1 according* to A. W.

IRE HOIS ARE NOW BUILT OF FACED BRICK Stujxo Also Comets Into Popular Use in Construction of Houses. I’r* snt price of materials, together with tlie costV'Of labor „i make building a question to which -one ipust give considerable thought. One must decide whether We can afford to build, j and if so just !•** much the can spend. 1 what kind of material will be used in its constructictn, and where he will! build. The permanency of vthe house, its I b unity and comfolrt, and the expense! of constructing it> are items of pri- j mary importance Because of their durability and longevity, their fireproof qualities and thetir minimized upkeep, brick and stucco have become j popular. The display room* in tho offices of j tin Inti, imipoiis <’> viJ Company, 2323S Bankers Trust building, is particularly interesting. Here different colored bracks in different finishes have been put together with different colored mortars in siach a way as to gt : ,i great number -of walls of en tirely different, appearance. The type of brick used in the construction of tin- house, according to Ernest Horn, is largely dependent on the character of the house and its location. “It is our si tin to take care of jobs in such a way the builder receives ! maximum value, 'the said. “We carry I only materials of the highest quality: i we render every possible service in taking care of tno order and wo sell i at prices that are right. “The stucco on the market several years ago was more or less a risk, but the formula has been so perfected w'> give an absolute guarantee with our Elastica- stucco; great development lias been made in its artistic possibilties as well.
