Ore July 2)1 tf The rush of rural workers to the cities, the gigantic expan sion of industry during the war period, has finally about ended home life in our chief cities for the great middle class. Rents have not only ciimeu until an adequate family home is impossible to the average professional man, but the demand for flats and tenaments has so exceeded the supply that only adults are received in apartments and fiats. No landlord wants children in his appartments if he can avoid them, and these days he can pick his tenants. All over the country the demand for houses in which to es­ tablish homes exceeds the supply, and more o f the nation is dwel­ ling in hotels, in tent houses, in shacks: more families are decided with mother and the children in the country, and dad working in the city, than ever before. This hits at the very foundations of our national security; and it is a nation-wide problem. And those who seek to solve the problem by building their own homes find construction costs well nigh impossible, with car­ penters getting more than $1 an hour, and all building materia! more than 1U0 per cent advanced over last year’s prices. Certain­ ly the average middle class citizen can’ t build now . And this hits most the great middle calss: the skilled me­ chanic, the professional man. the teacher, the public officials and employes: the intelligent American families, whose children must guide the nation aright if guided it is to be. Hovels and holes and tenements for the swarming lower stratas will alwavs be found in abundance, but the sinew and sense o f the nation is becoming homeless and tending coustantiy the more to become childless. Here too is a problem of reconstruction that will take some straight thinking to solve.

A ateady market for small fruits for years to eome will increase land values and distribute money among families. Thousands o f acres of logged-otf lands will be brought under cultivation in small tracts, the only practical way it can be done. The rains w ill set millions to tips o f loganberries, blackberries, and produce million of canes o f raspberries and strawberry plants. Growers of small fruits should look after plant production as there will be an unlimited demand for plants this w inter and next spring. With a little attention, like turning a furrow on each side o f the row plant production can be accelerated and good money l made.
