GREGORY, Agricultural TitUion, loiva Staf Co'.ttg Copyright, 1000. by American Pres Association THE farmer la more important than his farm, and the most important crop he raises la not corn nor hogs, but boys nnd girls. The success of a farmer is not measured so much by the money he makes as It Is by the happiness be brings to himself and to hut family. One of the surest ways of accomplish ing this end .Is by making the Lome surroundings attractive. There Is no place on earth where It Is easier to have an attractive home than on the farm. Yet In spite of tbls too many farm homes are located In the middle of a weed patch that roes by the name of garden or are nnuen behind such a thick jungle of trees that It Is Impossible to see in or out. - The first thing to consider la the 'louse itself. It should be situated on the highest part of the hill on which the farm buildings stand. A house wed not be expensive to bebomellke and convenient. Indeed, the most ex- (tensive houses are often the least homelike. The starting point is the cellar. With but little additional expense this can be made the full size of the house. In tbls case the foundation walls should extend to the bottom of pio. xxxin-rAitnt hohb babbanddrao. LATH FKOIf LACK OF TBKES, 8HHU11S AN1 LAWN. the cellar. The first course should be of hollow brick, luA end to end, and connecting with a tile drain on the lowest side. In this way seepage water will be kept out of the cellar. A cement floor Is a great advantage and Is Inexpensive, since the ceraeut need not be more than two or three Inches thick. The cellar should be divided Into about four rooms. Hollow brick make good partition walls and at the same time help support the floor. One of the rooms may be used for vegetables, one for fruit, milk and butter, one for a laundry and the fourth ce mented on the Inside and used as a cistern. If the furnace is used an other room will be necessary, or the cistern can be located outside. For an ordinary sized family a hun dred barrel clHtern Is about the right size. A partition of a double layer of Alter brick, with gravel and charcoal ...... i. n i i . .. . . I imi-at-u wi ctu, buuuiu exienu across It The water Is drawn out from the opposite side of the filter from that to which the pipe from the roof empties. In this way the water obtained Is pure enough for cooking or drinking. A plentiful supply of soft water Is a luxury that cau be obtained so cheaply that no one can afford to do without it Wood Is Btlli the cheapest and modt satisfactory building material. In building the house the two extremes of size should be avoided. If the house Is too small It will be crowded, while If too large It costs more and Is harder to keep clean. In arranging the rooms, convenience and ease of keeping lu order are the chief considerations. The large r.ud solemn "siwre room," which was opened only on state occasions, has largely given way to the bright, cheer ful living room with Its bookcases and work and rending tables, which Is used every day and evening lu the year. This room, together with the dtulng room, kitchen and bedroom, with a wash aud bath room If possi ble, will comprise the flrst story. A wash room, with a sink and a place fur overshoes, coats and hats. Is a great help In keeping dirt out of the kitchen. A bathroom Is also a great convenience. A cupboard In the wall between the kltcheli and dining room Is handy, as the dishes can be reached from either side, A spring door between the two rooms keeps out the flies and at the same time opens easily. A bedroom on the ground floor la almost a ne cessity, especially lo the case of sick noes. The upstairs will of course be largely devoted to bedrooms, although it Is often convenient to have one small room fixed up for a library. The attic make a gojod storeroom for seed corn. Probably the most satisfactory way to heat the house Is by a furnace. This Is cheaper and cleaner than stoves. If the furnace room Is made large enough to hold a load of cobs and several tona of coal the work of Ore building will be greatly reduced. A register la the hall upstairs will be enough to take the chill off the sleeping rooms. It U a good plan to have a furnace pipe run to the kitchen, too,' and use a gasoline or kerosene range for cooking. This Is cheaper, handler and cleaner than a Cook Stove, and the kltrhtn ran H I kept much cooler In the rammer time. Most farm homes are very poorly lighted. A kerosene lamp ia dirty, smells bad and does not give very much light. A gasoline lamp is much better. Best of all Is the acetylene gas system. After this Is once installed It can be operated cheaply and will fur nish an abundant supply of light. The water system Is another thing In which farmhouses are behind those In the city. There Is scarcely a house lu a town of any size but that ia provid ed with water and sewage systems. In tho country there ore the exception rather than the rule, yet they can bo put In ut a small cost. An air tight tank In the cellar is sometimes used to supply the pressure for a farm water system, but Is rather expensive. The water can also be drawn from the elevated tank at the barn, If one Is used there, the only dis advantage In this case being that cis tern water cannot be used. On the whole, the most satisfactory plau is to have a small galvanized tank in the attic. A little covering In the coldest weather will keep It from freezing, and a few minutes work with tho cistern pump each day will keep It filled. By having a heater attached to tho furnace or to the kitchen stove and making the proper connections hot and cold water can be supplied to the bath room, the wash room aud anywhere else that It Is wanted. The laundry room downstairs Is the place. where the convenience of such a system will be appreciated most. In this room the washing machine, tubs, wringer and other utensils can be kept. An opening In the floor con nected with the tile drain will carry off the waste water, and hot and cold water from upstairs will be always on tap. Such n room, together with the entire water system, can bo fitted up for less than $100. Another convenience that can be in stalled at small cost Is a sewerage sys tem. This can be connected with the bathtub aud sink, and with a small additional expense another luxury that Is seldom found on the farm, an In door closet, can be added. Drain pipe well cemented nt the joints should be used In constructing the sewer. The cheapest form of outlet It the "septic tank." This Is a small underground tank divided ' Into four compartments, so arranged that when the first of these becomes full It will overflow Into the second, aud so on. The tank should be covered and pro vided with a ventilator. The action of bacteria in the septic tank will de stroy all the solid matter, so that the , water which flows out the lower end I will be clear and have no objectlon I able odor. With an occasional clean i Ing out such a tank will last forever. I The house should be provided with plenty of porches. These Increase the : expense somewhat, but also add much ! to the comfort and appearance of the 1 house. Vines trained up over them to I keep out the sun and screens to keep out the files make them still more comfortable. Nothing adds more to the external appearance of the house than a neat lawn of ample size. Do not make (t no. xxxnr a oornbb op a rbatlx ah banuku lawn. - too large, however, of the work of mowing will be likely to be neglected. A lawn Is not Lard to make. A little work leveling and prepariui; a One seed bed aud a liberal application of blue grass seed that will grow will almost certaluly result la & good lawu. Do not make tue common mistake of planting trees too close to the bouse. They detract from the appearance aud make the house close and stuffy. The opposite extreme should be avoided also. A few trees about the edges of the lawn furnish grateful shade and provide a flanking for the picture of which the house Is the central figure. - The decorative value of shrubs la of ten not appreciated as much as It should be. A climbing rosebush over the porch or a few dwarf varieties in out of the way corners will add to the color and beauty of the yard. There are many other flowering shrubs, such aa snowballs, syrlnglas and lilacs, that can be used to fill In empty spaces and corners. A row or two of hard maples or elms along the driveway, wtth a thick ever green windbreak to the north, will fin ish the supply of necessary trees un less there are corners or tmre spaces about the yards that will be better for a tree or two.
