KOSHER, Miter ud Manager Beauty of Entrance Meant Much to Horn* Some one has aptly called the entrance "the smile on the face of the bouse." It may convey the friendly welcome of the little cottage, the dignified reserve of the stately dwelling, or even the forbidding coldness of the prison. The doorway, my* Joseph Everett Chandler, the architect, is certainly a good index to the family behind it. It is a far cry from the stones and skins that formed the entrance to oar ancestors' caves and hots to the modern charming doorway, with its vine-covered trellis casting lacy shadows across the sturdy panels of tiie door at the end of the flagstone path. Modern entrance doorways and porcli entries, reflecting the period, which governed the various architectural styles now popular in this country, are available In standard nnlts, which may be used In a variety of combinations to suit Individual taste. Quantity production has brought their cost down to a point where they are available for all types of homes; whether modest or pretentious in size and price.

"Whatever the skyscraper may become in the future, it will be a development governed and regulated by economic principles." "No subdivlder has any moral right to accept payment from a lot purchaser unless he knows perfectly that he can convey the lots when called upon to do so." / 'If you mar a landscape with a 'building that is a house and not a home, you have In some measure marred the soul of the child playing around that home." These are some of the principles brought out at a state-wide conference for real estate brokers and sub dividers held at Ann Arbor, Mich. The conference was notable in being held under the joint auspices of the Michigan Real Estate association of the school of business administration of the University of Michigan Highway Markings Local efforts In the marking of roads are made in almost every community with particular reference to directing tourists and travelers into and out of that particular community. They are helpful, of course, and many communities have wished that it was possible to carry on the work to an even greater degree than is possible for them. The past few years, however, have shown marked development along the lines of the marking of trunk highways and have taken from traveling much of the wrongroad worry. The masking of Alabama highways to the greatest extent possible should go along with the building of these highways, and the availability of these state manufactured road signs for that purpose should prove a great help.--Tuscaloosa (Ala.) News. Pure Bred Doctrine Has Been Given Big Setback Perhaps the pure-bred doctrine has been handicapped somewhat at times by making it too general. A man unfamiliar with good sense in feeding and dairy herd management has no business with an extra good bull any more than a baby has with a costly watch or a motor car. Pure-bred cattle are excellent for those who understand how to handle them, but they may prove of no particular value to the careless manager. With the right management, the pure-bred dairy sire Is the greatest single factor In Increasing production and profit*. The states which are high in percentage of pure-bred dairy sires are also high in average milk production per cow. As the percentage of pure-bred siree decreases In the list of states the production tor the group becomes less.

James Hunter, R-2, McHenry.' Phone 617-J-2. 48-tf During the past seven years the | Diamond T. Truck, production of milk In the United j and box States has shown a steady and fairly Ford Chassis uniform increase, but the production of milk products, although showing increases in most Instances, has not been uniform, according to Prof. H. A. Ross, milk marketing specialist at the New York State College of Agriculture at Ithaca. Since 1920, the manufacture of condensed and evaporated milk has shown the least increase of all important milk products. The combined production of these commodities has Increased at the rate of only 2 per cent each year. The production of canned sweetened condensed milk has actually decreased at the rate of 10.5 per cent a year, but this decrease has been more than offset by an Increase In canned evaporated milk. Cheese, also, has shown only a relatively small Increase during this period. Creamery butter and Ice cream, on the other hand, have increased fairly rapidly. Both of these products are probably more sensitive to Industrial conditions than are canned milk and cheese, and the demand for them has been high because of the general prosperity of the urban population during the last few years. Professor Ross says. Approximately two-thirds of all the milk handled In New York state plants Is now marketed as fluid milk or cream, largely in the metropolitan area Including New York city. The demand for the semiluxury, cream, has increased more rapidly than has the demand for milk, but both axe increasing at a sufficiently high rat®, however, to Insure a good market FOR SALE--Woodstock typewriter, ' • like new. $50 for quick sale.

Real property has been always the basis of all security, and property ownership the most dependable form of financial credit," says a noted Hew York realty operator, In a recent article. "Every Inch of land, regardless of Its location and environment has a basic value that Is determined by the laws of supply and demand and the use to which the land may be put. On the whole, real property is subject to a lesser degree of fluctuation than any other commodity Involving the investment of capital." More Intensive Work in Tuberculosis Control (Prtptnl by tk* United States Department of Agriculture.) A number of states enacted legislation during the past year enabling them to conduct much more intensive work in the control and eradication of tuberculosis of cattle. New states obtaining helpful legal authority were Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Tennessee. Among the states obtaining additional legislation, Indiana passed a law requiring that wherever a county adjoins two counties working or having completed area work, such county shall provide operating funds upon the request of the state veterinarian. This is in effect a complete state law, as under it all counties in the state will eventually be required to make the necessary appropriations. At present 50 of the 92 counties In Indiana are either classed as modified working to that end. 1922 Studebaker, Calif. 1923 Ford Coupe 1924 Dodge touring, winter enclosure, excellent condition throughout $195 Easy Payment Plan We have a complete line of tracks MISCELLANEOUS HAULING -- Have you rubbish cleared away this spring.

But gtnee they are simple chronicles of fact, those who read for a moral must be disappointed. Consider the case of Capt John Bo wen. He did not die on the gallows. His pirating was profitable, Immensely so, and so long as history has any record of him he was enjoying his gains. Ill-gotten though they were. Perhaps there was a certain element of poetic justice In this, for he started on his career by the capture a French vessel, the Speaker, owned by an English company engaged in the Infamous stave trade. After taking this prise Captain Bowen and his "merrle com pan ye" began raiding In the South seas from Bengal to Madagascar. Then his vessel went on the rocks off Mauritius, but the shipwrecked pirates found an unexpected friend In the Dutch governor of the island who supplied food and medical supplies for the marooned freebooters. For three months they enjoyed his hospitality and then Bowen sailed away. Whatever else he may have been, Bowen was not ungrateful, for his parting gift to the Dutch governor was 2,500 pieces of eight and the wreck of the Speaker with all Its guns and stores. Upon arriving at Madagascar, which by this time (1701) was a notorious rendezvous for pirates, he ^built a town and fort to protect It Soon afterwards two ships. Ignorant of the character of the place, came Into port and you may be sure that Bowen took advantage of this providential visit. He seized the two vessels and again went "a-pyratlng." Bowen held a strategic position in his headquarters at Madagascar, for the trade upon the South seas was rich. A quick dash from his town to intercept some clumsy merchantman laden with a valuable cargo and then he and his fellows were back enjoying their loot. It is estimated that In a short time this pirate had taken more than a million dollars In money as well as great quantities of valuable merchandise. Then he wisely decided that It was time to quit So be and his men settled down among the friendly Dutch (who no doubt enjoyed their share ef the captain's loot) on Mauritius and there died In peace.
