GOOD DESIGN IS DESCRIBED — Several Features Make the Interior Especially Inviting to Persons of Discrimination—Closet Room Is Abundant. By WILLIAM A. RADFORD. Mr. 'William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects pertaining to the 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, No. 1S27 Prairie avenue, Chicago, 111., and only enclose two-cent stamp for reply. The popularity of brick porches on frame houses lias been growing for a number of years. The brick porch has been used to add the finishing touch to frame construction over a period of years reaching back beyond the in fancy of the face brick. Its rapid adoption is no doubt largely explained by the development which has taken place in the brick Industry during re cent years. The term “brick” has lost some of the definite meatfing which it. at one time, possessed. Even a generation ago. when this word was spoken it called up the image of an uninterest ing, dull colored block of baked clay. The man who said. “I am building a brick porch.” had given a complete meaning to his words and his audience would at once understand just what material would go into that porch. Let a man today make such a statement and if he has an audience which is at 1 house which needs a touch of modern ism, gives a tangible increase of value ro the property which is very accept able in ease of sale. The brick porch is not. however, to be considered as merely a means by which old houses may be modernized. The new house design may call for a brick porch which will be one of the most attractive features of the exte rior. It is usually the case, when tlais type porch is used on the new house, that the foundation walls above grade are built up of brick also. This in sures good substantial construction since, in keeping the wood up from the ground, the rotting effect of moisture is eliminated. In case an outside chim ney is used, the effect is pleasing in that all of the brickwork is connected by the foundation walls. The house shown in the accompany ing illustrations is of frame construc tion. having the sides finished with beveled siding and the hip roof broken np with small dormers. The porch, foundation walls above grade and chimney are built of brick trimmed with white stone. In carrying out the decorative scheme for the exterior, ac count should be taken of this fact so that the wooden part of the house will harmonize with the brickwork. This will probably require that the house be trimmed in white, but the body color will depend somewhat upon the kind of brick selected. A novel decorative feature is ob tained in the rail of the porch by lay ing up the brick in checker-board fash ion. the surface being divided into squares formed by placing brick with their faces together in groups of three, adjacent squares having the brick placed at right angles. Panels are formed by bordering a double horizon tal row of these squares with a single course of straight-laid brick. The stone coping is placed above the upper bor der and a stone sill below the lower border. There are two entrances to the house from the street. One Is from the front porch and the other is by a side stoop leading to the kitchen. The front door is placed near the end of the porch. It opens into a little vestibule off of which a large closet fitted with a shelf and providing generous space Brick Porch Bungalow. all interested, he will then be forced to go into a lengthy discourse on just how that touch of bluish gray blends In with the graded browns in each brick and how the effect is further brought out by the “texture"—well, before the appearance of the brick is fully realized, the sample from the building material dealer’s stock has passed the rounds and even then the story is only half told. The man who used to build the old type “brick” buildings didn’t find much inspiration in his work. It didn't make much difference how well he did his work, the appearance was about the same in every case. That condition is changed somewhat now. The ma son today has the chance to show something of his work. The beauty of color and texture found in the brick itself calls for a harmonizing scheme which will bring out the beauty through the use of the most appropri Floor Plan. ate color and form of mortar joints. There are many possible ways of lay ing brick in the walls of a building and the subject it now a matter of im portance with both the architect and builder. This greater flexibility of architectu ral expression which is possible in brick construction, as has been said, seems to be a logical explanation of the Increased popularity of brick porches. There is the fact, also, that the addition of a brick porch to a for wraps is built. French doors lead to the living room. At the far end of this room is a bay in which three windows are placed. These windows, together with one front window and the glazed doors, provide an abun dance of light in the living room. It is certain that if this is to be made ' the pleasant part of the house which is should be, there must be plenty of windows to make the room naturally bright and cheerful. French doors are placed between the living room and the dining room. • The kitchen occupies an extended cor ner of the house to the rear of the din ing room. This kitchen is arranged with convenience as the discriminating factor. There -are three windows and a glazed door to brighten the room. Beneath the two windows in the rear walls there is a work table at one end of which is placed the sink and along the wall at the other end of which the cupboard is built. Plenty of space is provided for a gas stove and range along the other wall. A handy little closet with shelves on two siues opens off of the kitchen near the dining room door. The other side of the house is reached from the little hall which is entered from the dining room. There I are two bedrooms, each of which is | provided with a large closet. The i front bedroom is especially well fitted with exceptionally large closet lighted with a single window. The bath robm is placed between the kitehen and the rear bedroom. It is fitted with a built in medicine case and a clothes chute. This latter feature is a great eon ! venienee and saves many steps, since it is very handy to the bedroms. There is a linen closet at the head of the hall. The basement, entered from the ! other end of the hall, may be divided off into a furnace room, laundry and ' vegetable room. The laundry should be placed at the rear of the house so that i the articles thrown into the clothes j j chute may be caught in this room. Classifications of Leather. Leather for shoe manufacturing pur- I poses comes under two broad classifi- j cations, upper leather and sole leath I er, these, as their names irnplj being ■ used respectively for the sole and the j other portions of the shoe. The upper ’ leathers most commonly used are calf skin, coltskin or horsehide and kid. Calfskin comes in various finishes, pat ent, wax, bright, dull, boarded and vel vet. Coltskin and horsehide are used principally as the base for patent leather, but they are also employed in dull finish for men’s high-grade shoes. Kid may be glazed, patent, pebbled or morocco, according to the tanning process. HID i ML Of M In Six Years He Was Well Off An Alberta fanner, who had bor rowed from a loan company, in re mitting to them the last payment on his mortgage, decided to give them the history of his experience, on a Mani toba farm. It was that of many anoth er fanner, and for the benefit of those who contemplate a change the liberty is taken of reproducing it. “I will give you here a brief sum mary of my experience since coming here six years ago. I was a new hand ] at farming, my trade being meat-cnt ; ting and butchering. My capital was | $400, which was a first payment on my quarter section (160 acres). Most of my stock, harness, implements, etc., were bought at sales, all “on time,” necessarily. The buildings on the place were about as good as nothing and had either to be rebuilt or replaced entirely. There were 26 acres broken, and very badly fanned, bringing poor returns the first year.” After mentioning a number of mischances, he says: “In spite of all these drawbacks, I have done well. I consider my farm worth 53.500 to $4,000. I have four head of horses, 12 of cattle, over 400 purebred Buff Orpington chickens and 125 tur keys, besides implements, harness, etc., to run my piace. I have a well 170 feet deep with an inexhaustible supply of water. The well with pump cost me $400. I have built a $125 chicken house and put up nearly $50 worth of poultry fencing; have built root cellars to hold over 3,000 bushels of potatoes and other vegetables. As to income. I raise about ten acres of garden and roots annually which net from $600 to 51.000 total. I generally sell from 20 to 40 tons timothy hay which brings from $6 to §14 per ton. My grain is most all used on the farm except a few hundred bushels sold to the neigh bors for seed. My four milk cows bring in from $50 to $80 each (counting calf). Last year 80 hens laid 600 dozen eggs which averaged more than 25 cents a dozen (I always work for winter egg production). The surplus hens were sold in spring, dressed at §1 each. My turkeys average §2.50 each in fall. By having vegetables to feed my young cattle, the two-year-old steers bring $75 each in spring.”—Advertisement. Husband’s Soft Answer. She was waiting for him.

When his honor had finished the defendant exclaimed generously: “Your honor. If the band had played the tune as you whistled It, I would not be here today.” “Discharged I” interrupted the well pleased judge. “But the hand would.” concluded the man in an undertone as he hastily re tired from the courtroom.—Christian Herald.
