It is marvelous, but true, that upon s0 little as one acre the average industrious man, wotking under the right conditions, can make a better provision for his fagiily than half of the citizens of this country are doing now. your outing— take a VICTROLA with you!

A money panic doe more than scare people, it sets them thinking how they can protect them- selves against a recurrence of this thing.” Note that Mr. Hall does not speak of lands which men buy for speculation, nor does he speak of lands which men cultivate in the hope of get- ting rich in a hurry. He refers to the land from which one can make a living. Do you get the idea? and a Living” himself without waiting through weary years for something to turn up. When these facts are understood—when they have entered fully into the national consciousness in the length.and breadth of America, there will be neither a homeless man nor a hungry child. Little Lands at Alderwood Manor point the way to the home in a garden—the actual family roof tree, and show how to build it with the maximum of comfort, convenience and beauty, at the mini- mum of cost. In a word, the Little Lands at Alderwood Manor come t&meet a genuine need which exists in Se attle, with the hope and expectation that it will meet the approval of our_thoughtful men and women. “A Little Land Keep it always in mind that Alderwood Manor is dealing with land from which a man may make oye will ha TROLA outfit PRESS DE hich we are an entirely a combinat LUN binet will appeal to f being ¢ tof the house; fit eature « Go on Auto Ride | After lunch at the old Commer celal Club roome, at the Arcade building, the boys’ congress were taken for an auto ride around the efty, and will leave for the island at 3:30 Wednesday afternoon.

A French genera! pinned the wi cross of France to the folds of th flage and pronounced a giowin, eulogy on the two Americans BY SHELL a living, and not with the frenzy for sudden riches. The future is to be better than the past, just be- cause men are beginning to take this saner view of things. The City of the Future The city of the future will not be all anartment houses and cafeterias, nor even 50-foot lots. It will largely consist of beautiful homes in the midst of small acreage resting upon the foundation of eco- nomic security, with every opportunity to provide for social and intellectual satisfaction of the high- est order. It is vastly inspiring to us, as evidenced by the hundreds of people who have visited our offices the past week, to see them looking in the right direction toward little lands as their savior. It is the very great distinction of the movement to little lands that it enables each individual to act for The man who feels the burden of the high cost of living, the man who senses the peril of advanc- ing age, the man who yearns for some measure of individual independence, this man or woman can go to work where he or she is if he but owns a little land. A Demonstrable Plan The object of the Puget Mill Company has been to create a plan, a demonstrable plan, where a man and woman with enterprise and energy, can make their home and make a comfortable living upon ‘a small area of land by followipg the practical demonstration as taught in the edfcational depart- ment at Alderwood Manor. Today you can meet those who are interested in this wonderful development, those who are teachers of this “New Life of the Land,” by going to Alderwood Manor, ‘el The two ambulance workers were) killed by a ehell which struck their loaded ambulance Sunday morning.

Filbert trees begin to yield in three or four years, and increase their productivity very rapidly. At six years you have a really profitable orchard whose yield will continue to increase and whose life will go on for generations to come. The company is indeed fortunate in having as head of the Filbert and Horticultural Department a man as eminent as Mr. A. A. Quarnberg, for Mr. Quarnberg has made a success of Filberts in West- ern Washington for the last quarter of a century, introducing almost fifty entirely distinct species of Filbert trees, and he stands today as undoubt- edly the greatest authority in America on the Fil- bert industry. There’s a wonderful exhibit of Western Wash- ington grown nuts in the offices of the Puget Mill Company, Second Floor of the Walker Building (Seattle). Guarantee that all dental operations are performed painiessly by my own painless system, without causing the slightest pain, and with your hande folded and your eyes wide open: For matured filbert trees the average annual yield is 1,000 to 2,000 pounds of nuts per acre, and during the last few years Northwest grown filberts have retailed at prices varying from 25 to 30 cents per pound, according to variety, size, etc. H1S may seem like an absurd statement, but | am prepared to prove that this Is true, by extracting any number of teeth without cost to you.
