Dickson, Illinois, “and would like to know how I could secure 300 copies, one for each patron of our creamery.” “Duck Dollars is the best book I ever had on duck-raising,” says F. M. Warnock, Penna. ‘‘lf your other booklets contain as much valuable information, as the Egg-Book, I would consider them cheap at double the price,” says F. W. Mansfield, New York, T. F. McCrea, a missionary in China, writes, ‘‘l found Garden Gold a great help in my garden this summer. I lost my health in the great famine, trying to save the starving Chinese, and I am trying to get it back by getting near to the soil. After a long tussle with the Chinese language’and mission problems, it is a great rest to get out with the vegetables, trees, chickens, etc. I am saving money and regaining my health. My wife and I both find Farm Journal indispensable.” tJThe Farm Journal beats them all,” writes T. H. Potter.

Mr At llhara A. Radford will answ-ei questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects per-al—-ng- to subject of building, for the readers of this paper On account of his wide experience as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he is. without doubt, the highest authority on all these subjects. Address all inquiries to William A. Radford. Na IT? West Jackson boulevard. Chicago. HL. and only enclose two-cent stamp for reply. The great antiquity of concrete as a building material would justify a search for early examples of its use in architectural expression. , But apparently this remarkable material, which, after all. is only just beginning to reveal its ultimate possibilities, wu used by the ancients only for the baser purposes of piling up masses of masonry, or at best as a backing for stone and marble facings. The first suggestion of its fitness for architectural expression came when builders took the idea of constructing architectural features of cement mortar. There is undoubtedly a fascination about being able to mold so thoroughly a plastic material as cement mortar into any desired form, or even to shape it by hand, while still soft, and so produce creditable work of idecoratrve sculpture. But one invariably suffers a shock on discovering that beautiful stately collonades or arcades and porticos well designed and in style, are not built of stone, but that we are looking at a thin veneer of cement iportar, in short, that they are a mere sham. During this period of development, while architects were being led to adopt new materials, they did hot con cem themselves with the evolution, of design in conformity with their new materials, and it followed quite naturally that no progress was being made toward the realization of a real concrete architecture. In fact no attempt was made in this direction. It would be difficult to estimate
Ruskin’s influence in bringing about a restoration of truthfulness in design While it cannot be said to have extensively effected immediate and tan* gible results, it did set men to rhinking, and in recent years—within the present generation, in fact—this subtle influence is gradually asserting itself, and naturally bringing about a revival of artistic inspiration. It is hard to depart from beaten paths, and men as a rule will not and dare not till some genius carves the way. It is hard to give up the old familiar forms that have become a veritable architectural alphabet, which seems to most of us sufficient for the
expression of our architectural ideals. And now that we have entered on an era of concrete construction with a suddenness that is characteristically American, we cannot expect to throw aside all tradition and make for a new style. That will take time Nevertheless they are coining to recognize in concrete a material that will afford abundant opportunity for originality and individuality, and accordingly bold excursions have been made into the new field, with creditable results. Some of the most pleasing work with this new material has been done in the construction of small bouses. The small cottage or bungalow hae about it something that appeals to the hom-
mg instinct, and when the little house is well designed this Is intensified. Here is displayed a design of a little house that is to be built of frame and plastered on the exterior with cement mortar. We know that houses built in this manner axe cooler In summer and warmer in winter than those I of other construction, and the cost is very little more than that of frame construction. The effect of this design is artistic and it is of such a character as to attract attention, although there is nothing pretentious about it. Such a house will always be salable, and that is something to be considered when settling on a design. It is a one-story house, the width being thirty feet and the length twen-ty-nine feet six inches. The porch is six feet nine Inches by twenty-seven feet six inches. You enter the house by a cosy vestibule and find yourself in a central hall on each side of which are wide doors into the living room on the left and the dining room, on the right. Directly ahead is a, passageway that leads into the bedroom, while access to the kitchen is had through the dining room. Between the bedroom and the kitchen is a bathroom, while in the kitchen a pantry of ample size is provided. This house will look best if built on a corner lot and surrounded with flowers and shrubbery.
THINGS TO BE REMEMBERED
One in the List of “Must Nots” is the Use of Poison or Poisoned Weapons. ' Few persons know how many restrictions hedge round the privileges or the warrior under the regulations of modern international agreement. Some of these have a grim touch of humor. A spy, for instance, is exempt bov from the dishonorable death of
hanging, and is entitled to be shot. Similarly, while poisoning streams and weapons is against the code, dead cattle may be left in them to cause them to be poisoned. Mr. Acland pointed out that a question to be settled was as to the use of airships for dropping explosives Great Britain, the United States, and Austria had agreed not to use explosives from airships, but France Germany, Italy and Japan had all claimed that it was fair to do so. That would be one of the most important things to be settled at the next peace conference, and he hoped that, while it was perfectly fair to use airships for Information, it would be declared unfair to use them for dropping explosives or firing projectiles. As citizens may legally take part in warfare in defending their country, providing they do not conceal their weapons, the following list of “Must Xota” laid down by the international rules may have an interest to our readers: You must not use poison or poisoned weapons. Wound or hurt by the employment of treachery. Kill anyone who surrenders. Threaten that no quarter will be given. Use projectiles which cause unnecessary suffering or explosion. Use expanding bullets of any kind Destroy any of the enemy’s properties, except for the sternest military necessities. Make peaceful subjects of the enemy’s country take part In operations against the enemy.
Stung.
A clerk had been in the employ of a notoriously stingy company for six months, and had received no raise of salary. Going to one of the clerks who had held his job for several years the youngster registered a tremendous kick "Oh, be patient,” said the veteran patronizingly “Don’t lose your head boy. Just keep plugging away. You haven’t been here long, you know Look at me—lt was months before I got a raise. Now take the advice of an old stager, and Just grin and bear it- By the way, how much are you getting for a starter?” “Twelve a week,” snapped the discontented youngster. "Wen, forthe love of Mike!” rrmrod the veteran, Tn getting tanl*
The KITCHEN CABINET
■ RRORS like straws upon the surface flow; He who would search for pearls must dive below. —Dryden. OMELETS.
To make a good omelet requires skill and deft handling. A good omolet is a work of art of which one may be justly proud. Eggs are reasonably plentiful now, gmd omelets of various kinds are in season. Fruit Omelet.—To the yolk of ono large egg beaten until very light, add one tablespoonful of fruit juice; if orange is used, add a fourth of a teaspoonful of the grated rind and a teaspoonful of sugar; beat well together and fold in the beaten white. Cook very slowly in a well-greased omelet pan. Caramel Omelet.—Take two eggs, separate the whites and yolks and beat well. To the beaten yolks add two tablespoonfuls of caramel sirup. Beat until well mixed, add more sugar, if needed, a half teaspoonful of vanilla and one teaspoonful of lemon. Fold this into the beaten whites and cook in a greased pan. Cheese Omelet. —Cook together a cup of milk and four tablespoonfuls of cornstarch. Pour this when cool over the well beaten v’olks of four eggs. Stir into this four teaspoonfuls of bread crumbs and the same amount of cheese. Fold in the whites, which have been beaten stiff, and bake in a moderate oven .fifteen minutes. A ham omelet is prepared as for a plain one. and minced ham is sprinkled over the top just before folding it over. A delicious sweet omelet is prepared with almonds and maple sirup. Into a hot buttered omelet pan turn a handful of blanched almonds; then pour over them a plain omelet, being careful net to have the heat strong enough to burn the nuts. Fold and pour around it a hot maple sirup. This makes a very nice dessert. Tomato Omelet.—Make a plain omelet, and when ready to fold, pour over it half cup of thickened tomato, stewed down. Add a teaspoonful of butter and two of flour cooked together, season with salt and pepper and serve hot. The family may wait for the omelet, but the omelet should never wait for the family. An omelet kept waiting has a most discouraged, down-atdhe-mouth sort of an expression.
Looking for the Best of It.
"Cluggins is fearfully selfish since he got that new motor car," said the critical friend. “In what way?" “Every time he honks to warn a pedestrian he thinks he ought to have a life saving medal.”
Still in Fancy.
'Didn’t you tell me last summer that you were going to build a concrete house?” asks Miggles. “Yes,” answers Gluggims, “but after looking over the architect’s estimates I left the house in the abstract” Life.
Greatness.
“Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them" said Dibbs. ‘ “Yes, and some appear to become great by merely parading on the slightest provocation,” said Dubbs.
POP KNEW.
Tommy—Say, pop, what’s a >diplomat? Pop—He’s a man who, when he, can’t have hie own way, pretends that! the other way is his.
Cause and Effect.
