* Comartable and Attractive, Both Outside and In. 'ALL ROOMS.WELL- ARRANGED Layout Will Appeal Strongly .to the Housewife, in That the Building Is Designed to Make the Home Work Lllht as Possible. By VIILLIAH A. RADFORD: ~ “Mr. “Willfam ‘A, Radfc answer estions and give M:lrefl- }“gEE Tliam’A. tvenue, Chic: t ‘stamp There was a time when the home on the farm was the least important - bullding. The dairy barn, hoghouse ‘and other farm bulldings were buiit to last and contained all the latest improvements in the way of equip- ment. The home was merely a shel- ter and could wait. What was the re- sult? The farm wife’ had a whole ll.lm :frl.l w lot of unnecessary work to do with- out any conveniences. Comfort was almost entirely lacking. But times have changed. Today the farm home is one of the blg buildings on the farm. As well as being the most atfractive, it Is the most mod- ern, being equipped with the latest la- bor-saving and comfort producing de- vices to make the lot of the housewife a pleasant one and to make home life in general one that will appeal and keep sthe children contented. One great cause for the discontent of the farin.boy has been home conditions. When the hard grind of the day was done he did not have-attractive sur- roundings in which he could spend his spare time. Electric light and running water have worked wonders with the mod- ern nonic, a splendid type of whiclt 1s shown here. This home is lighted with electricity, has a real modern bath- room, washroom with running water, and all of the latest conveniences in home comforts. ‘Built of frame, It has a large front porch which can be sereened in during the summer mounths. The square, hip-roof style is liked by many. The foundation s sub- stantial, being rough-faced concrete block set on & concrete wall. This howme, which s two stories high, Is 30 feet wide and 40 feet long. It contains seven rooms, four‘on the fitst floor and three upstairs. The front door opens into a small reception hall, fitted with a closet for clothes. ‘-\ This hall leads into the living room, @ large, comfortable room, 17 by 14 féet, lighted by a triple window look- ing out on the front porch, and a dou- First Floor Plan. ble window 6n (hp =ldo.

This home answers the question: ‘“What sort of a farm home can T build that will be $atisfactory In every way and not cost me a whole lot of money?” The square type of house Is economical to construct and always provides plenty of room. Today the modern farm home is pne that com- bines comfort with the least expendi- turd of effort.. The farmer's wife w) ll certainly appreciate a” home of type, because it furnishes her with thn means to do all her work in the most pleasant manner possible. After a long day’s work in the hot sun it is quite a treat for the farmer and his help to be able to come home and take a refreshing bath in-a mod- ern bathroom and spend a restful eve- ning reading or in some other recrea. tion in pleasant ‘rooms well lighted and furnished. ‘Modern equipfient has helped the farm wife Imineasurably in performing her tasks,.and has made possible her entragce into social ac- tivities. Comfort In the farnl homs 1s essens tinl. The old idea of “all work and no play” is no longerheld by progres- sive formers, for they have found by actual experience that happy, content- ed homes increase the efficlency amd earning power of the farm. SIGNED WITH FINGER PRINTS Deed Recently Placed on Record in New York State Is the First of Its Kind. A dced signed with the fln_gerprlntl‘ ot Joseph Steinholtz, who executed it, was offered for record in the Queens county clerk’s office in Javiiiiica. The deed conveyed to Panline Roth a one- fourth interest in a burial plot in )lt.K Zion cemetery and was the first instru. | ment of any kind executed in this manner ever filed in Queens. Clerk Edward W. Cox 4id not know how to transcribe the finger marks upon the recortdl and asked counsel for an opinion. He was ndviséd to record it as he would a deed that had been | executed by signing with a mark, And to make a scroll atethe éng of the rec. | ord Imitating the finger prints and to | write “Joseph-Steinholtz with finger | marka.” ‘ The New York State statutes pre scribe a method of recording a_deed | where 4 mark has been made but do | not mention fingér prints..and the | county clerk is anXious to have a court | decision. It is recognized that a fin- | ger print is a more perfect way of exe ecuting an {nstrunient for an illitérate person than his mark, but thus far the method has no legal sanction.—New York Times.
