On acgount of his wide experience as 'Editor, Author and Manufacturer, ha is, without doubt, the highest authority' on all these subjects, Address all inquiries to Wililam 4. Radford, No. 1827 Prairle avenue, Chicago. Ill.. and only enclose two-cent stamp for reply. “Better homes on the farms” is an excellent slogan that is gaining tre- mendous impetus throughout the coun- try. The old-fime, long-accepted idea that the farm home was merely a roof and four walls-is losing a footheld | because of the development of the A building enterprise ao® individual am- b bition. ! acquainted with the beautles and con- veniences of the city home and she in- sists. that her nest shall be justias modern as any. Moreover she has be- ‘come tired of the back-breaking drudgery that kept her tied to “the 1imits of the house and made her work-, ~ing day one long, endless, monatoneus " grind. The effect is apparent in all seec- tions of the country. The farin home is no longer subordinated to the dairy | barn, the implement shed or the poul- \trychouse. Today it §s first in the mind of the farmer, certainly first in the eyes of his wjfe.and of tremend- ous importance to the children. Un- less home surroundings are made at- trictive they will leave the farm for the cities - where attractions abound. As a result the farm home is as at- tractive, convenient and modern as most houses in cities. Electrie light, running water, bathrooms and laun- dries are no longer something to be dreamed about; they are actual real- ities in'the farm lome. " That this is true is borne out by the picture and floor plans of the farm- home shown here. This house could very easily grace the streets of a high- ; 1 - a large class residential section .in town or city. © When a THan i$ building a house, which in most cases he does only once in a lifetime, he is inclined to con~ sider all angles very carefully. And to rthe average farmer there is 1o stronger appeal than economy. . With no large sum of money to expend on a home he wants to get as\benutiful a dwelling @s possible at thé lowest possible cost. designed for that purpose. .Because of its square lines which eliminate any special orders for material, it is one of the most economical types of home that can be built. As is the general rule in homes of this type, the " .roof is hipped. 8 In this home the broad open front porch s particularly inviting. The wide tapering bulkheads and pillars painted white are yery impressive.

H The front door leads into the living room, a large, comfortable room, 19 feet 6 inches’ by 13- feet, with win- dows on two sides. A small’bedroom adjoins the living room. In the read of the lower floor is the dining room, also ample for ll}e needs of a large faily and well lighted by windows on two sides. It opens into a hall by one door and into the pantry by another. The pantry joins the ¢ kitchen. The kitchen ' is Alesigned . along modern lines wdich call for a small compact, well-equipped room.
