IiHlde tho initial equipment, the road entail an expense of about ?.r0 weekly for the employ of two opera torn and probably half that amount for electricity.

The room Is finished throughout In marble and has Immense crystal chandeliers. It has the largest seating capacity of any room in the capltol except the hall of the house and the Henate chamher. Yet the acoustic properties of the room are bo bad thnt It Is never used, and It stands there as an expensive monument to some one's mistake In planning the senate office building. Of course a person would ordinarily pay no attention to such a thing as bad acoustic properties, but in this room It cannot help but be noticed. HUMOROUS Thoae Amateur Muaiclana.

Law Forbids Hoarding. Persons who have sought to excuse their violations of rules nnd regula tions of the United Stntes food ad ministration on the assertion that there Is no law requiring it," are warned thnt there Is a law governing such cases. According to the law, persons who willfully hoard any nec essaries shall, upon conviction, be fined not exceeding $5,000 or he Ira- prisoned for not more than two years, or both. The statute sets out just what "hoarding" Is nnd Includes, not only the act of hoarding, but the with holding of necessaries to gain a high er price for them. Hoarders will be prosecuted In the federal courts. (Prepared by the United Stata Depart ment of Agriculture.) There may be nothing In a name, but there Is a lot in a brand, especially In the export trade. Practically all ex port business of food products Is han dled on a basis of branded goods. To a much greater extent than the Ameri can producer realizes foreign buyers make use of brands In purchasing products by cable, and Importers In foreign lands depend upon brands In judging the quality of the products they handle. There are three ways of buying goods for export. One way Is by the use of samples of standard products, another by orders, often cabled, giving Instructions to agents to buy specified quantities of certain branded prod ucts; the third method, by far the least used, Is for an Importer to visit foreign countries In person and select products wanted. Advantages of Brands. In the United States the use of standard and of many copyrighted brands on domestic products has helped sell goods of various kinds and trade-marked goods of quality have en- Joyed wider distribution than non standard, unbranded products. Many concerns that have .not developed any export business own copyrighted trade marks on products sold In home mar kets which they value among the chief assets of their business. Of course It Is not enough merely to use brands, but their use today Is com ing more and more to be backed up by quality In the goods so labeled. Es pecially Is this true where products are widely advertised. There are some commodities for which a brand Is In Itself an advertisement and when this brand becomes known among buyers as a guaranty of quality or grade. It serves to expedite the sale of the product. Take butter, for example, of which the United States exported over 30,000,000 pounds during the first ten months of 1919. A large amount of American butter Is shipped without Inspection or grading; it Is not han dled so that foreign buyers know what they are receiving and as a result It does not sell as well In foreign mar kets as butter from countries where inspection and branding are practiced. Investigators In the dairy market ing division of the federal bureau of markets has found that unbranded but ter from the United States, while sell ing freely during the present scarcity of butter In other countries, Is not like ly to retain a hold on foreign buyers, after other countries resume exporta tion. In this fact is an important les son not only for dairy Interests but other producers desirous of expanding their trade abroad. Creamery men cannot expect to develop a foreign market for their products unless they establish reputations for their goods just as manufacturers in other lines have done4 nnd standards or brands are a great aid in such business devel opment. Building a Foreign Trade. j Before the war Denmark was a large j factor In the international trade in butter. She has been famous for her dairy products for years, not only on the continent, but In South America, where even in out-of-the-way corners of the tropics travelers found the only butter available came In cans with a Danish label. New Zealand has built up a trade with Europe In butter through a government Inspection serv ice, and butter must measure up to certain stnndnrds before the Inspectors will place their stamp upon It. Inspection Service. This Idea oi Inspected and branded butter Is not new In the United States, for the federal department of agricul ture has been Inspecting interstate and Canal zone shipments of butter for some time. This Inspection, however. Is not compulsory, and has not as yet been applied to export trade to any great extent.- Recently a large purchase of butter for export was inspected by a United States government inspector at the request of the purchaser who bought the butter subject to inspection. This is said to be the first time that inspection by any government has been asked for on any large amount of but ter exports. Exporters In the United States whq ship to Central America usually us brands on their) butter and have developed some trade there In re cent months. If the United States Is to keep Its present export trade In dairy products and aot suffer from possible competi tion In home markets, It Is necessary to pay more attention to the quality of its products and make fuller use of brands and scores in handling its but ter production. What applies to dairy products applies to many other lines as well. SMALL HOUSES BEST FOR CHICKEN FLOCK Size of Building Should Be Gov erned by Number of Hens. Smaller Breeds Being More Active and Restless Require About as Much Space as Larger Ones Make Structure Square. The size of the hen house should be governed by the size of the flock. From 40 to 50 seems to be about as many birds as are Bafe to keep together. With flocks of this size from four to five square feet of floor space should be allowed to each bird. This will suffice In most cases where careful at tention Is given to cleanliness and ven tilation. If the fowls are kept In smaller flocks more floor space to a bird will be needed. In sections where the climate Is so mild that It Is unnecessary to keep fowls confined, except for a few days at a time, less space to a bird should be sufficient. The smaller breeds, being more active and restless, require about as much room as the larger breeds. For the greater amount of floor space for the least cost a building should be square. Other things being equal, the nearer square a house Is the less lumber It will take according to poultry specialists of the United States department of agriculture. How ever, it Is sometimes out of the ques tion to build a large house square. A building Bhould not be so wide that the sun cannot reach the back of the t house, otherwise it will be damp. Fourteen feet Is convenient width. Build the house as low as possible without danger of attendants bumping their heads against the ceiling, for the low house is more easily warmed than a high one. POOR HATCHES ARE COMMON Condition of Eggs Previous to Hatch ing Is More Apt Than Incuba tion to Be Cause. Poor hatches are common with poul- trymen, but what causes them is a much discussed question. The answer depends on a great variety of circum stances. The condition of the eggs previous to hatching Is more apt than the incubation to be the cause, al though improper handling in either case will produce the feame results, says the United States department of agriculture. When eggs fail to hatch, first see whether the breeding stock Is kept under conditions which tend to produce strong, fertile germs In the eggs ; next, whether the eggs have been handled properly before incuba tion; and lastly, whether the condi tions were right during incubation. When an incubator is used a daily temperature record should be kept of each machine. The operator can then compare the temperature at which the machines have been maintained. This may prove of value in the fu ture, especinlly If the brooder records can be checked back against those of the Incubator. NEVER PLOW UNDER MANURE When Seeding Field to Clover Ferti lizer and Disking Leave Much to Conserve Moisture. Never plow under manure or fer tilizers when seeding a field to clover. The manure and disking leave an ex cellent mulch on the surface of the ground which conserves moisture, es pecially during the hot dry , weather in midsummer.
