This state-ment, he lidded, was bused upon his personal inspection of Washington's alleys. The general discussion of the entire subject resulted In the adoption of a program of which the sulient features are: 1'ubllcatlon of the names of ownen of alley properties that ore In insani-tary condition; district commission-ers, acting under existing law to noti-fy owners to clean up or tear down property that hns gone beyond possible repair; residents of alley houses and owners of vacant lots used as dumping plnces for rubbish to be notified to place all refuse material by a specific date where it may be removed; dis-trict commissioners to work out a plan for the removal of this refuse; senate committee to use Its influence for an appropriation that will enable a thor-ough cleaning up of the capital ; wood en fences dividing dooryards and along alleys, constituting a fire menace, to be removed and wire substituted where necesflary. Senator Copeland, who, as health officer of New York city has had con-siderable experience in municipal bousecleanlng, made It plain lie was not advocating the ejection of cceu-pnn- ts of alley houses. "1 do not be-lieve In paternalism or In the govern-ment going out and building houses," he suld ; "but we can have regulations and enforce them regarding decent liv-ing conditions." Engineer Commissioner Bell sold the owners got a return of from 15 to 30 per cent on their ramshackle houses. He reported that 271 build-ings, valued at $58,000, had been con-demned, and that better work In that direction could be done If there were an adequate number of Inspectors. In the course of the discussion of one phase of the situation when the commissioners pleaded lack of author-ity, Senntor Copeland replied grimly: "Sometimes It Is a good thing to go ahead and do these things and get the authority afterward." Mrs. Magnus Johnson at Home in Canital In a doll's house, cooking LIVING gas, paying milk bills, breud and getting letters from the farm these head the list of thrills which Mrs. Harriet Dorman Johnson, wife of Sen-ator Magnus Johnson of Minnesota, hag experienced since taking up her residence in Washington. The magnificence of the capltol, the beauty of ths White House, the splen-dor of the Lincoln memorial none of these has delighted Mrs. Johnson as much as the simple Joys which come to her day to day In her little bunga-low out Takoma park way. In fact, since arriving in Washing-fu- n about the middle of November, and with the exception of the week spent at the Hotel Portland In the city, Mrs. Johnson has spent most of her time "getting settled" In her 175 a month doll's house and hasn't both-ered about seeing many of the sights. Harriet Dormnn Johnson, native Mlnnesotan, who had never been more than 100 miles from her birthplace In her life, arrived in Washington In as calm and knowing a mood as If she had been a native daughter of the District. "I saw no need of getting excited s about It," says Mrs. Johnson. "I had seen so many pictures and 'movies of Washington and read so much about It that I felt like It was a sort of old friend. Of course, it Is a beautifully laid out city and filled with Interest-ing historic spots and buildings. Some-time I shall go on a sightseeing ex-pedition, but not until I finish fixing up our home. The senator and my two girls come first." Her sons, Victor, twenty-on- e years old; Francis, twenty, and Magnus, Jr, aged fourteen, together with the eld-est of the family, Lillian, now twenty-fou- r, are running the farm while their mother Is in Washington making a home for the senator and their two younger daughters, Agnes and Flor-ence. Contrary to general belief, Mrs. Johnson Is not Swedish. She was Har-riet Dorman, and was born and reared on the next farm to the one on which she went to live when she married Magnus Johnson. Mrs Johnson's father, Samuel Dor-man, a widower of eighty-tw- o years, keeps bachelor quarters on a little farm not a mile from where the Mag-nus Johnsons live. Parking Space at Premium in Capital now has WASHINGTON as against an Increase of 23.7 per cent. The question of parking space "downtown" is rapid-ly becoming a far more burning Issue In the capital than home rule for the District, taxation, soldiers' bonus, or the amount spent by Edward Bok In promoting his peace plan project Eleven thousand cars are pnrked every morning in the congested area, according to a survey made recently by Colonel Sherrlll, chief military aid to President Coolldge and superinten-dent of public buildings and grounds. In addition to his duties nt the White House and the War department Colonel Sherrlll seeks to find parking space within walking distance of their offices for the thousands of automo-bile owners. The majority of these are officers and employees of the gov-ernment, who come to work every morning In their cars ranging from limousines to flivvers and from homes within the city limits to farms and bungalows In Maryland and Virginia. In Washington the horse and car-riage has pretty well passed Into his-tory. From President Coolldge all the way around the official circle automo-biles have replaced the carriage and pair of former days. Every cabinet officer and all other high ranking off-icers of the administration use cars to-day, their own or those provided for them by the government. According to statistics compiled by the B. F. Goodrich Rubber company, 1023 was a record breaking year in the automotive Industry. Every state In the Union registered an Increase In the number of cars in use. The total registration for the United Sates amounted to 13,221,183 cars and trucks, which Is nearly 00 per cent of the total world registration of mo-tor vehicles. Today there is a car for every seven people in the country. Ten years ago there was one car for every seventy inhabitants. Farm Families Larger Than in Cities INTERESTING fact has AN dragged out from its hid-ing place in a maze of census report figures and presented to the American people for considera-tion. This fact Is that the farms, which are responsible for most of the nation's food supply, ha-- the added burden of being a main source of the child supply. In other words, while the city fam-ily tends to dwindle to proportions that fit a city flat, the farm family con-tinues to fill an entire farmhouse. This contrast has been noted for some years, but statistics on farm popula-tion were not tabulated until the last census, and the country has not real-ized how great a proportion of the farms were supporting. To put it Into plain figures. If you compare the .'!O.OtH),000 of our farm population with an equal amount of city population, you find that the farms hsve 2.0n,(X0 more children under ten years than those cities have. This statement Is made by Ir. C. J. Calpln, who Is In charge of farm popu lation studies In the Department of Ag-riculture. To make his figures more vivid, he shows that 2.UO0.00O Is, rough-ly, about the population of Oklahoma. If you lmngtne the task of feeding, clothing and educating a group of peo-ple of this size, you have an Idea of the situation. Then think of the farm-ers supporting their excess burden of young children and trying to keep up with the rising standard of living. Children between ten and twenty years are more numerous on the farms than in the cities In almost the same proportion ns those under ten. So, al-together, tiie farms have an excess burden of nearly 4,000,000 children, as compared with the same amount of city population. It Is true thnt the farmer can feed n large family almost ns cheaply as a city man can feed a small one. Some other expenses are lower, too. In rural districts. And the child on the farm helps In the work. In Its surveys, the United States children's bureau find that farm work Is an Important fort of child labor.

(Br ERW1N OREEB, President Oreer Col-lege ot Automotive Unflneerlng". Chicago. ) If you want to obtain low cost of battery service on your car you must do three things: You must have a standard battery, you must see that It Is serviced properly, and you must give it a certain amount of attention. If you consider the cost of a battery and the work It has to do, you will readily realize that It needs exactly the enre thut you give the engine. There are now on the market more than 100 different makes of storage batteries. Out of this number a good percentage are virtually worthless when compared with topnotch bat-teries made by responsible concerns. The worthless ones are sometimes called "back alley" batteries, because they are made in burns, garages and shops that have no recognition. It does not take any particular skill or experience to make such batteries. The plates are purchased from one source, boxes, Jars and electrolyte from others, and so the parts are put together and the resultant called a storage battery. , Gets "Stuck'' Either Way. If the parts were properly made and correlated a good battery could be pro-duced, but such a battery would then have to sell at such a stilt price as compared with the reputable makes that the alley builders could not com-pete. So the motorist Is asked to buy these batteries at a low price, sometimes at a high price. It does not matter much about the price, for the motorist gets "stuck" either way. If you need a bnttery, buy one made by a reputable firm. That does not necessarily mean a large manufactur-er who advertises his wares all over the country, because there nre many smaller battery makers who haven't the distribution nor the advertising volume. The battery business is one that must be studied In order to pro-duce a good unit at low cost. This study calls for const nut experimental work In every branch of manufacture, and this Is something the "back alley" hnlldprs do not enre to do. Once you possess a good battery the next thing to do is to give It the care It deserves. All you have to do is to add distilled water once each week in summer and once every two weeks In winter or at such Intervals as found necessary to keep the cells tilled to level. Aside from this simple procedure see to it thut the terminals are clean and tight and the hattery as a unit Is mounted solidly In place. Distilled Water Only. Never add anything but distilled water. There are some garages and even battery service stations that will try to sell yon some special electro-lyte to "revive" the battery. These special solutions should not be used, for while It is perfectly possible to add chemicals temporarily to revive any battery It harms tLe b.ittery In the end. If the battery Is so f:ir gone that It will not take n churge or hold a charge, special electrolyte will give only temporary relief at great cost. See tj it that the generator charg-ing rate Is low or high enough to keep the battery up . to clmrg . Some drivers do little continuous driving with the resu't the battery Is under-charged. Others do constant driving and little starting nnd stopping with the result that the battery Is usually overcharged. It Is difficult to antici-pate driving conditions, therefore the wise owner occasionally has the bat-tery charged nt n service station. If possible go to n reputable station where the shop equipment Is adequate and where an honest opinion will he given. Thp station can make certain tests to determine the condition of the battery and If the stntlon Is not hon-est the owner Is told anything at till in order that a new battery sale may be made.

If, through the accumulation of seill men: or dirt, these outlets becom clogged and don't fulfill their func-tions, the result Is that the Internal pressure generated will follow the line of IcH.ti resistance and force a leak at n point where the radiator Is weakest Therefore, It Is absolutely essential that these outlets be open at all times. . In order to reach a man's intelli-gence, you may sometimes have to coach It for a long time beforehand.
