I1 AUTO Cbmimmi A GIGANTIC SALE Tbe wooden toy industry is booming In Aiuericu, tbe World wur having given it a big lift, because It temporarily discouraged German manufacture, formerly tbe chief source of supply for tbe Amerlcun market. Tbe tariff now In foree sealed the fate of German competition in woode-toys in this country and since that time several large centers of toy have sprung up. Winehendon, Mass being the largest in tbe East, says tbe New York Times. Tbe only wooden toys of any prominence that escaped the tariff embargo Is tbe urtir flclal Christmas tree, which bus been reclassified and transferred from tl) wood product class to tbe feather schedule, as a large portion of artificial Christmas trees are made of feathers. Some German toys are on the market at high prices, according to tbe New York State College of Forestry, which says: Tbe mechanical toys manufactured In Germany are superior te the American product aa a general rule. Many of these are made of metal, aucli aa battleships, locomotives, trains, railroads, automobiles, fire engines, mills, snd pianos, although a large portion of the pianos are made of wood. German doll are In many cases preferred to the American product." American manufacturers excel In the construction of the larger toys, such as sleds, skis, carts, toboggans, etc. says tlie college. "The kind of wood often depends on the byproduct of tbe lumber manufacturers near which tbe toy factories are usually located. For this reason, one manufacturer uses pine, another chestnut and another various hardwoods.

On With Home Owning The register of deeds of Wyandotte county says Kansas City, Kan Is in a fair way to become the leading city of the country In tbe percentage of home owners. That affldul has been noting tlie unusual number of realty transfers, and the fact that many working men and others with limited means bare been buying homes It will be greet for Kansas City, Kan of course, if that city gets in a fere-moa-t place In this important matter; but building permits Indicate that Kansas City, Mo and many other places are going right ahead In this home ownership business. Few movements of greater possible value ever went forward In the country. A city or a community of any kind with a high percentage of home owners is bound to be made up of a good class of citizens; families with children; men and women of settled habits, and persons who, because of a proprietary interest, ere likely to show more than the usual concern with community affairs. The home owner Is the least likely convert to bolshevism or any other Ism that doesnt grow out of sanity and common sense conditions of living. One way to promote home owning Is to attract capital Into the borne owning business. Substitute for Wood The development of asbestos lumber has come at n time when grave concern la being expressed aa to the possibility of our nullonitl forests being exhausted by present-da- y building needs. Combined with cement, asbestos fibers produce a wood" which can be sawed, nailed and shaped and fnbri-cate- d In any size from a strip to the heaviest timber. It can be pulnted, sanded, stained snd treated In any wny In which ordlnury wood can be treated for decorative effect. Rut, unlike nrdlnnry wood, It requires no treatment for preservation and need never be replaced, because It Is Indestructible. Small houses and warehouses already have been constructed successfully of asbestos wood, and It baa been used with equal success In the partlul construction of Inrger buildings.
