The further we get Brooklyn, Aug. 31.—The kitchen of the future, if any, will be an assem- bling plant only, according to Samuel Slotkin—there will be no actual cook- ing or baking done there, and home cooked meals will be as obsolete in the next 50 years as home-knitted socks or home-cobbled shoes. Slotkin is head of a large cooked meat concern that has recently ation of several million dollars, and he is one man who does not deplore the delicatessen dinner, yearn for home grown, home cooked chickens, !or sausage ground up in the family ‘away from the home-cooked idea, the | better he is going to be pleased. He believes that the pies mother used to make were one-fourth senti- ment and three-fourths hard work, and that mother had better go out and play golf with dad, than wear herself out cooking for him. “It's the day of big business, con- olidations, and mergers,” he said. “Small businesses are being crowded out, and the kitchen is the last stand of the little business. It has got to 0.” Home in 1979 Here is the home of 50 years from | now, as Slotkin sees it: “The apartments will be compact, with mechanical contrivances to do! all the housework. All furniture will | be built in and most articles of furni- | state to popularize its usc. Many land Mrs. Theodore Serr and H. K. Jenson, ! ture will be double duty. Apartment owners have advised the association that they will sell farms on ths plan set forth in the association's contract. In brief the contract provides for the purchase of a farm with a small payment down, the balance to be liquidated over a period of 12 to 15 years by the payment on the part of the purchaser, of the cash return on 25 per cent of the farm. In this contract the buyer and seller agree upon a four-year plan of crop rota- tion, which is one of the essential features of the contract. The seller reserves the right to direct the farm- ing operation on 25 per cent of the; acreage each year, which is to be pre-; pared for a cash crop in the following | year, and he also reserves the right to designate the kind of cash crop that shall be planted and from which his cash return is to be made. The purchaser would pay the taxes and the extent of his annual payment would be the cash return on the particular quarter of land, average yields and prices in the past indicat- ing that such an arrangement would permit the purchaser to liquidate his indebtedness in from 12 to 45 years. He would be permitted to speed up the liquidation by supplementing the crop payment with cash payments from time to time, with due allowance made for such payments in interest | charges. Ownership Is Solution The contract is the result of aj study by the committee, headed by! B. E. Groom, which was appointed at the first land sales conference held by the association in 1928. It was the viewpoint of the conference that the average owner operator is making real progress toward better farming methods. It was felt, however, that the gencral progress in this direction throughout the state, is being re- tarded by the large amount of land being operated by tenants. In a few cases an arrangement has been work- ed out whereby owncr and tenant have met the demand for increased farm efficiency but the average farm operated by a tenant is lagging | Motorists of Chicago start out ef the city on 40-foot highways at the permitted speed of 45 miles an hour—and drive inte 18-foot roads that slow them down considerably, as the two photos show.

The Greater North Dakota associa- tion has no land for sale. Its inter- est is the interest its several thou- sand members have in seeing North Dakota push forward. It believes the interest of the state as a whole is served when tenants purchase farms on a basis that is entirely fair to the purchaser and the owner. It is anx- jous to see the progress being made by owner operators extended to more of North Dakota’s land and for this reason proposes to spend some effort in encouraging tenants to buy. New Settler Drive Continues This effort is really a continuation of the association's immigration work which in the past has included an appeal to North Dakota tenant farmers to buy before the period of present low prices ends.

Decides to Sell Food Further using his head, he decided that for every family who bought a $25 masterpiece from an itinerant ar- tist were hundreds of thousands who bought food, so he decided to sell food.
