Seriously interfeerd with the raove
fnent of all building materials and
added to the shortage in basic com

April indicate that the amount of
Contracts awarded will exceed the
figures for March. It is well to re
member at this time, when the mov
ing season is at its height and when
evidences of social unrest, as a re
sult of . constantly increasing rents
are being manifested, that one of the
conditions that will bring about per
manent stabilization is a vastly in
creased supply of. residential struc
tures. So far during the current
year only about 20 per cent ofthe
total construction of the country has
been devoted to. residential types,
which is fully 10 per cent below nor

,.. Fosters Unrest.
"The shortage of homes through
out the country not. only add to
;th,e financial burdens f many
classes of people Who are least able
to stanH them, but it has a general
disturbing effect which fosters un
rest and contributes to the general
lack- of production. In recognition
of this fact some of the country's
large industrial concerns have, dur
ing the. past few weeks, undertaken
to solve the housing problem among
their, employes through the inaugu
ration of installment mortgages.
"In one of the most notable of
these plants, it is announced that the
employes are to mawe an inmai, pay
ment of 10, per. cent of the cost of
the home and then pledge them
selves to pay the balance in. month
ly installments covering a period of
10 years, the total cost being just
what the cost has been to the cor
poration. . ,
Helpful Effects
"Such plans cannot fail to have a
helpful effect on general industrial
"conditions throughout the country,
for it must be recognized that noth
ing will have a more stabilizing in
fluence on those who perform the
pation's work than, adeqa&te and
comfortable homes. As long as the
cpuntry's quota of homes., is below
normal we shall be subject to the
dangers of both underproduction
and unrest.

Cultivating Corn mat 1 . . Tr
' to,'- III EE I : ,0 Hi 'if
!
. The fight ag;v -st weeds and grass
must be started early if popcorn and
sweet corn grown are to be kept
clean. Cultivation not only is nec
essary to keep down weeds and
grass, but it aids the soil in retain
ing moisture and facilitates the pene
tration of water when ft rains.
Hoeing or cultivating should be
gin as soon as the plants are a few
inches high. While the soil should
be worked to a depth of at least
eight inches before planting, the
stirring of the surface after the
plants come up should not be more
than two or three inches deep. Deep
cultivation is strongly favored by
some gardeners, but tests have
shown results in favor of shallow
cultivation for popcorn , and sweet
corn. - '
In general ultiv"ation, "should be-
gin as soon as the plants are about
two and a half inches high) and re
peated once every week. - Cultivat
ing the corn every week or ten days
should keep down, the weeds and
maintain a constant loose soil
mulch on the surface. It should be
kept up until the corn has attained
its full growth. v
More frequent cultivation may be
needed when it rains every few
days, causing the surface soil to run
together. '
IHs vitally important for the gar
dener to be prompt in restoring the
mulch after rains. In a good sized
patch it is often advisable to use the
wheel hoe instead of the ordinary
hoe. Avoid breaking the roots of
the -torn plant as much as possible.
The roots radiate in" all directions
and 6re dily a few inches below the
Surface. y Deep cultivation even in
the middle of the tow after the corn
reaches a height of three feet will
injure the plants. '

Salad Gardens
- Mark off a small space'about 10
feet square along one side of your
garden and fill it with salad, crops.
The small gardener in the city,
where plenty, of water is available,
has excellent facilities for a good
salad garden. ' . 1
, The salad grdenfits in well with
ibe vegetable garden and fits in nice
ly in one corner of many yards
-Where there is a space 10 cV IS feet,
square that is not shaded. It can be
started to advantage in a corner or
along a fence, for the fence may be
used to train the tomato vines-on
when they are large enough to
stake, and to support cucumber
.vines. . '
,' The list of crops may include sev
eral vegetables and fresh, crispy
vegetables may 'be had throughout
the summer. Gardeners will prob
ably always list lettuce among their
best salad crops, but it can be sup
plemented by others, some of which
Sre not well known in this section,
or instance, the endives, both the
French and curled varieties, are
worth space. . J - , ... t
t Lettuce may be planted along
,ivith tomatoes, for ft will be out of
,the way before the tomato plants
are large enough to shade the
ground sufficiently to interfere with
the lettuce's growth. A comVnon plan
i to set two rows of tomato plants
about 24 inches apart along the fence
(and raise between the rows an early
.crop of lettuce. A row of the cresses
'and corn salad should be planted
. -to take the place of lettuce when it
is out of season. A late planting of
lettuce should be made.
Turnip rooted celery may be start
'ed in boxes and transplanted later
to the row where lettuce was raised
early. Its cultural rennirements are
.'about the same as celery, except
Handling is omitted, as the root is
t edible portion.
tV.s French endive will need all
'summer to make its growth. Its
roots are taken up and placed in
'boxes in the cellar,' and the leaves
that come from the roots after, they
are placed in the cellar are used for
salads. Curled endive sown jn June
majces good salad material in the
i fall. The upright cress also is at its
best in the fall. . y
, Setting the Nut. '
; Castellated nuts have a way of
tightening tip between notches. If
.the nut is screwed up to the notch
'ahead it is too tight, while the notch

faxe of the nuf so that it can be
'screwed to ttrc -otch ahead.'

The Hessian fly has started its de
structive work in the wheat fields of
southern Illinois. It is the worst
wheat insect pest, causing serious
losses nearly every year. Entomol
ogists are at. work trying to gather
information on the Hessiarifly.
The early spring brood is the one
causing trouble just now. W. P.
Flint, chief field entomologist, and
his 'assistants have been keeping a
close watch on the fly since it first
appeared in LifTle Egypt ' a few
weeks ago.
"In the extreme southern counties
of the state the flies laid their eggs
on thi blades of. the vounar -wheat
plants several days ago," Mr. Flintl
says. the eggs nave natcnea ana
the maggots or larvae, are living on
the tender plants. As we come north
the season is later, and they are not
4o far along."
' It will be aUbut another week be
fore they appear in the northern part
of the state, depending, of course, on
weather conditions. The cold, rainy
weather this spring has not been fa
vorable to the flies. ...
Mr.- Flint feels 'rather optimistic
about the situation.
"Indications, so far as we are able
r. inHcrp" he said, "are that the
damage done-to wheat by 4he .Hes
sian flv this season will be only
mnArrxte. but it is too early to make
any definite predictions The late
spring has been an advantage so far
as the fly is concerned. In the cen
tral section of the state only about
SO per cent of the flies are out, and
the cold rains have prevented thetn
troni lavincr their eggs.
Th lira are still in their winter
quarters, the flax seed stagein the
northern counties, ana is i n
section that serious losses may oc
cur, as weather conditions proDaciy
will be more favorable for the fly to
lay ns eggs. . . ' . '
Where tne spring orooa appcm
tti farmer is practical Iv Helpless.
Mr. Flint explained that nothing
could be done to check the work of
the flv aftfr it 'once gets into wie
wheat in the Spring. If the farmer
knnwa thev are in his wheavana xne
infestation is heavy enough to cut
the yield to such an extent tnai u
would not pay to harvest th grait
then the field should be plowed up
and some other crop planted. .

Grain and other . concentrated
feeds have increased in pricC so
much that dairymen are trying to
make some change in their cropping
system so more green feeds may
be used. Dairymen are beginning
to realize the value of the soiling
crops as a source of comparatively
cheap and, satisfactory feed for
heavy producing cows. These crops
will be found ofparticular valueufi
keeoinz down the cost of producing
milk during the hot and-dry pertod.J
Dairv fanners and experiment sta
tions have been checking the results
of soiling crops fed to dairy cows.
Amongvtye leguminous crops that
have been put to the test alfalfa has
rantted at the top of the list. Dairy
men find that after it is once well
established in a good soil it will lives
a long time and produce high yields
of palatable feed -that .contains a
high pcrcentageof . ash and protein.
Next ' to aitaHa come-; soy Dean,
sweet, alsike, and red clovers. Many
are using the Canadian field , pea,
and occasionally the cowpea.' ;
Amber cane, sweet corn, and fox
tail millet are used as soiling crops
to some extent Amber cane seems
to be the favorite with .most darry
men, .because it is succulent and
cows are fond of it v
These ( crops can be? raised to
gether to advantage.' In localities
wnere tnejare aaapiaDie sucn mix
tures of leguminous crops as cow
peas and corn, oats and Canadian
field peas, and cowpeas and 'cane
may be raised. '
Where these crops are developed
a great deal more feed is produced
than where the sairnTland is irpas
ture. The production of milk is
stimulated and kept tip when -the
grass is short in the summer where
soiling crops are used, and the heavy
grain ration is not needed. Where
these crops are fed during the hot,
dry season, dairymen do not have
trouble with disagreeable flavors in
the milk that 6ften come from weeds
eaten by covs running in pastures.
In 'planning" soiling crops labor
must be considered this year. More
labor will 'be needed at seeding
time, and, erf course the daily cut
ting of the feed when it is ready for
use must be provided for. The time

Paris, May 15. French society
members of the new poor are turn

A school for chorus girls started
by Mme. Jeanne Ramsey in large
studio in the Grande Boulevard has
a list of over 80 society women who
find the. .high prices prevent them
from living on their prewar incomes.
The Ronsay pupils include 'the

daughters of the old French nobility
who are Hstedamong' those who,
rich before the "war,, are now accounted-
poor. The daughters of
society- are taught their profession
side by side with professional chor-

classes, and - many strange friend
ships have resulted.
In La Grande Pastorale, a fantasy
which has just opened at the Cirque

Cows grazed on pastures with wild
onions or garlic plants now probably
will produce tainted milk. When
cows eat such green plants within
four or five hours before milking
there is imparted to the milk a dis
agreeable flavor and odor.
After the cow has been kept in a
stable or dry lot all winter it will eit
most any kind of green food when
turned out in tine pasture. The gar
lic plant is (ommonly found in pas
tures in the middle west, Particularly
from Iowa-eastward, and is the most
troublesome weed that causes the
tainting of milk.
The plants become so common :n
some pastures that dairymen are
forced to feed their cow hay and
silage, which has been found effec
tive in decreasing the desire of the
cow for greens. Practically the only
way to stop this trouble is to eradi
cate the weeds or keep dairy cows
out of infested pastures. If it is
necessary to graze cows, in fields
where these weeds are present tqey
should be taken out of the pastuie
at least four hours befonj milking
time and kept in a dry Jot.
The earlic flavor can be removed
by Seating milk to a temperature bf
145 degrees rahrenhcit ana blowing
air through it.

GREAT DEMAND
FOR NEW HOUSES
HERE FOR HOMES
Many Builders Are Sell
ing New Structures
Before They, Are
Completed.
Builders of new jiouses have been
experiencing, in the last few weeks,
Ka demand similar to that of last
year, a demand which makes itself
felt by the purchase of new. houses
before they are completed.
Some builders, because of the con
stantly rising price of building ma
terial, refuse to sell, until their
houses are completed. Among these
firms are Beiison & Carmichael and
Payne & Slater Co. Others, how
ever are selling before completion
just s thev did a year ago.
Temple McFayden, in the last 10
days, has sold nine houses, all- under
construction. ' A
C W. Martin this month has sold
14 houses, none of them yet finished.
One of Mr. Martin's purchasers
tried to rent the garage at the Mar
tin home to live in until the house
was finished. ,
A list of 10 sales of tfiouses in
Parkvale addition by C.GJ Carlberg
includes six houses that are not yet
completed. Other builders are hav
ing similar experiences.
' Based upon rates per 100 pounds,
the cost of motor truck transporta
tion between New York and Phila
delphia is 80 cents; by rail the cost
is $1.02, with an added 15 cents per
100 pounds for teaming charges.
Soy Beans
. Corn planting time is the time to
plant "soy beans. They, are being
raised more extensively every year
in the corn belt They were prac-
tically unknown in the middle west ,
a few years ago.
Now farmers are beiug added to
the soy bean list each year, and most
of those who have tried them are
adding a few more acres whenever
possible. Iowa devoted a few hun
dred acres to the soy bean in 1917.
In 1918, according ftxrop experts of
the college of agriculture, over 8,000
acres were raised, and last year there
were nearly 49,000 acres.
Soy beans should becultivated jv
farmers with a silo to fill, for one
of the most palatable feeds for cat- -tie
consists of a silage of a mixture
of two-thirds corn and one-third
s"oy beans. The crop in most any
form is relished by nearly all classes
of live stock. In .Iowa it is prized
as a hog feed. '
When grown for hog feed, the
soy bean usually is planted with s
com and hogged down. It also is
considered one of the best emergen
cy hay crops. For cattle, especially
iu dairy districts, the soy bean has ,
been ranked at the top of the list. 1
When planted with corn it yields
a greater tonnage of feed than' any
other crop, an important consider
ation. Unfortunately all soils do not
contain the proper bacteria for soy
beans. However, the soil is easily
remedied by commercial cultures
now on the market '
Some of the best varieties of soy
beans are: Ito San, Chestnut, Wil
son, Pekin, Medium Green and Min
nesota 166 and 167.
In German automobile factories
junior engineers, with full academic
and practical training, are paid as
little as $17.50 a month. Clerical
workers receive still less.
