" ' * Value of Landscaping' Planned planting of trees and shrubs may control climate on a good-sized lot by as much as 10 to 15 degrees.

The home can be made cooler in summer and warmer in winter and at the same time the home owner etfi save on fuel bills. . Cats as Mansers 'v;-'. Reputation of the cat as a mouse killer is strongly disputed by Prof. W. Robert Eadie of the conservation department at Cornell, who says that a good dog can kill at many as 75 field" mice in an afternoon while a cat is playing with the one she killed. SOIL-CEMENT today's biggest value for light-traffic roads COIL-CEMENT makes taxpayers' dollars go farther because about 90 per cent of the required material is usually native soil on the site. It's easy to transform high-maintenance cost dirt, gravel or stone roads into strong, longlasting pavement good for years of all-weather service with spil-cement. The first soil-cement road, built in 193$, is still giving excellent service. Soilcement's superior value and durability for light-traffic paving is fhbrtMgfllf dtmon-* strated and established by thousands of miles of such pavement now in use.
