Hicks home Ugly House Costly as Attractive One "It's no more expensive to build an attractive house than an ugly one, while there is no economy in cheap material," Is what Rhys North and Marcia Mead declare In explaining adventures In home building In Mc- Call's Magazine. However, they say: "The architect's wide knowledge of construction often enables him to select materials which are less expensive, although thoroughly satisfactory. Stock sizes for doors and windows and local stock patterns for trims and moldings could be used throughout. All these factors would help to keep the initial expense at a minimum, while Insuring low upkeep cost and long life to the house. "The contract Is a very simple document. It explains in full what services are to be performed. This agreement, the Standard Form of Contract Between Architect and Owner, published by the American Institute of Architects, signed In duplicate by both parties in the presence of witnesses, is to the effect that for 6 per cent of the total cost of the building, the architect will draw all necessary preliminary sketches, working drawings, full-size details, and write specifications covering the work to be done and the material to be used by all the Public Service Company to Build Model Electric Farm Miss Ruth Hapke of Chciago spent! gliding trades concerned In the opthe week-end here. eration.

Miller American Steel & Wire Company's Banner^Posts "Tfc* Post with a Backbone" in Community Service An illustration of what can be accomplished by an American legion post when it earnestly takes up community service, the major objective of the Legion for 1927, Is shown by the Nels T. Wold Post No. 20 of Crookston, Minn., Howard P. Savage, national commander, said recently upon receiving the following report of the post's activities: . Sponsored a campaign for hiring a play supervisor for tho summer period in the public parks and playground. Purchased medal to be awarded to the best student athlete to be graduated from the city high schools. Purchased pennants to be awarded to winners in an interschool athletic contest. Purchased medals for winners of declamatory contest among schools of the county. Appropriated $250 to county agricultural agent for promotion of boys' and girls' club work on farms. Erected permanent speakers' rostrum In local cemetery dedicated to the dead of three wars. Mrs. Kaiser does not improve so fast these stormy days but is "able to sit up a part of the time. Mrs. Clara Harris who had her tonsils removed recently, is reported improving nicely and feels much better than before the operation. S. B. Kelly of Battle Creek, Mich., has been spending some time visiting relatives and friends at Wood 'stock and Ringwood. Bud Sherman rode his pony up and spent Monday night in Hie home of his grandparents. Bud is a pupil in Bull Valley school where Miss Theress Kaiser is teacher. A Ringwood physician was called Monday to the Kaiser home to prescribe fat Mrs. Kaiser. . Several ton of sugar that had been hauled out from Chicago to the farm formerly owned by Ben Brown, was loaded on two trucks and hauled back to Chicago. This farm is not in Bull Valley, it is Nunda township, while all of Bull Valley is in Dorr township. The heavy loads that have been hauled over the dirt roads when soft have made them almost impassable in some places. One of the trucks with sugar and had to be unloaded to get out of the soft places. Easter was a very quiet affair in this neighborhood, very few ventured out to attend church or for any other purpose. Both Shad* and Crop Planting of nut trees Is comparatively new in this country, says the American Tree association of Washington. Until within the last ten years, except In the regions where commercial nut raising had become •etabltshed, the Individual's proposal to plant trees for the raising of nuts was usually met by scornful comment. In some European countries nut and fruit trees along the roads are Qpurces of material profit. These trees are owned by the public, and the sentiment of the community has been sufficient to protect the crop* against marauders. il? : You Save Money when You Build Qood Fence The dollar yon put into good fences re- « turns its inveetment many times over.First you save work, time and labor when building fences with Steel Posts.

Narrow roads do not take care of the traffic and besides they are more dangerous than roads of wider types. i£KV«€ Architect's Conception of How Model Electric Farm WiU Look When Completed A model farm on which practically words, the methods and practices to everything will be done electrically is be used on the model farm will not being established by the Public Service Company of Northern Illinois on an 80-acre tract about two miles directly west of Mundelein in the central portion of Lake county. "The company has felt for some time," said Vice-President John G. Learned, in announcing the project that application of electricity to farm practices has passed the experimental stage. The things we propose to do with electricity on this model farm can also be done in the same manner on any other farm in this region. The farm will be operated by a practical farmer, whose knowledge of electricity is comparable with that of the average layman. In other be such as to require special mechanical or electrical ability." Farm buildings will include a residence, barn, garage, hog house, chicken hous, implement shed, farm office, brooder house, model dairy house, farm workshop, well-house, and silo. When completed the farm will serve both as a model electrical farm open for inspection and study, and as a practical farm to be operated on an efficient business basis. Cows of gooG grade will be purchased for the farm, and horses will be kept for the comparatively few field activities not done mechanically. Both the house and the barn will be wired according to Red Seal speci fications which provide for a definite i number of convenience outlets for th( attachment of various appliances. If is believed that this will be the firsl barn ever wired under the Red Sea] plan. Lee A. Huson, formerly of Volor and until recently connected with the Lake County Land association, will operate the farm and take up residence there with his wife and tw® daughters. Mr. Huson is a practical farmer of broad experience. "Consttuction of the buildings will proceed as rapidly as possible," sai* Mr. Learned, "in order that actual operation may be started at the earli* est possible date." Short Talks by Thoughtful Mothers Says a Virginia Mother: "Use a cough medicine that contains 'dope'? Oh, never. To our children we give Foley's Honey and Tar Compound, as my own dear mother used to give it to me. It so quickly relieves coughs, colds, croup, whooping coughs and those disturbing night coughs." Heartily endorsed by Mothers everywhere. No opiates, no chloroform, contents plainly marked on package. Once tried, always used. Ask for it. Thomas P. Bolger, Druggist. Right Community Spirit Anniston Is the finest place under heaven In which to live, and if we will but give to It that intelligent promotion, burying our petty sectional jealousies and looking only to the development of the town along broad, symmetrical lines, It can be made a much better place In which to do business. Viieietoie, let us make as our resolution that we shall give to the community a larger measure of cooperation, realizing that he profits roost who serves the. best.--Anniston (Ala.) Star. A priest offered 25c to the boy who could tell him who was the greatest man in history. "Christopher Columbus," answered an Italian boy. "George Washington," answered an American lad. "St. Patrick," shouted a Jewish boy. * "The quarter is yours," said the priest, "but why did you say St. Patrick?" "Right down in my heart I knew it was Moses," said the Jewish boy, "but business is business." --Sample Case.

They will last a good many years and will bring an Interest and loveliness to your garden nothing else can. One does not wonder, when looking upon them, why the lily has long since won Its place In Uteruture as the symbol of purity and virtue. Buy the best bulbs. Deacon Mullins was taking his wife out for a drive with their new horse and buggy. Coming to a neighboring town he saw a sign, "Speed limit, 15 miles an hour." "Here, Ma," cried the excited Deacon, "you take the lines and drive, and I'll use the whip, and maybe we can make it." -- Stone Cutters Journal.

Millions of are still in FOR nearly twenty years, lb* Model T Ford led the motff industry and it still is used by more people than any other automobile. Mor^ than eight million Model T Fords are in active service today--an indication of their sturdy wortl| reliability and economy. Because of the tremendous investment Which people have in these cars and because so many of them will be driven for two, three, and even five more years, the Focd Motor Company will continue to make replacement parti until, as Henry Ford himself "the la* Mo<M J, off the road." ; „ For the Ford Motor Company has always believed that its full duty consists not only in making a good automobile at a low price, but also in keeping it running efficiendy fat you as long as possible at a minimum of expense. No matter where you live, therefore, you can still bffP Model T Ford parts with the same assurance as formerly, knowing that they will give you the kind of service you have a right to expect, and at the same time protect the money you have invested in your car. All Ford replacement parts, as you may know, are made of the same materials and in the same way as those from which your car was originally assembled, and are low in price because of the established Ford policy.- So that you may get the greatest use ftpm your Model T Ford over the longest period of time, we suggest that you take the car to the nearest Ford dealer.and have him estimate on the cost of any replacement parts which may be necessary. You may find that a very small expenditure will maintain the value of your car and will be the meant of giving you thousands of miles of additional service# FORD MOTOR COMPANY Detroit, Michigad I 'Iff*' :-'A -
