TO ASSURE YOUR BOTTLE BEER
SUPPLY ALWAYS RI'RN YOUR
EMPTIES TO YOUR DEALER
MENUS
L, IKE tea, coffee, milk and other beverages, beer is almost
universally found on the menus of good sates. As a
zestful appetizer, as an ideal companio n o tas !0qds, and as
an aid to good digestion, beer has a wel[-kuown and long
established reputation. No beverage is more democratic thpn
beer. It enlivens the workman's ]urlch, accompanies the busi-
nessman's noonday conference, and called for by bankers at
their dubs, truck drivers at road-Side stands, and housewives
for thdr '!shopper's snack." Light, cheering and rdreshig,
beer is a bevmg of good living, fTjendly compani0h!, and
sensible moderation. To enjoy it at home pr wh,, dtag out
is one of the accepted pleasures of temperate people.

First Step for llousing . . .
Once a week, for five years, I
wrote an articte on housing. To
put substance in each piece I had
to do a heap of studying, survey-
lng and such. Even a half-wit
should know a few primary facts
about a subject after giving that
much time and work to it. I am
claiming to be no more than that.
Anything but an expert! Any-
thing!
Around a year ago I ventured
the first of a couple of lame-brain
COlumns on the proposition tirol
most young married veterans
want to rent; that they are un-
able to finance home ownership;
that they are too uncertain of
What they may be doing, or where
they Will be doing it for more
than a short period; and that,
therefore, the individual for-sale
home on any terms whatever
should be secondary in the veter-
ans' emergency housing program.
What was suggested, with the
backing of painfully gathered
faets, was an all-out drive for the
or frozen out by the political
housers. They had to stand aside
and watch the average young vet-
eran with an everyday job, his
small family parked on
or in shacks, tents and trailers.
Now tim building supply dealers
and their cooperating contractors
are free to work on that problem.
'They are taking the only practic-
able first step toward a solution.
And that is the production of ren-
tal homes within existing homes.
Here the outside walls, the roof
and the floors already exist. Here
the Water. plumbing, electrical
and heating systems are already
installed. What is needed is the
malting over of the interiors of
one or more roolns and the in-
stallation of a few items of
equipment and new laterals to the
main systems already in the
]lOllS(?.
Only comparatively small am-
ount of scarce materials is re-
quired for each housing unit so
produced. And only a comparative-
ly little building labor, which

in for a very small field ranging
fee.
The first part of the fall season
after having served their owners
with a useful summer season as
farm, pleasure, pack or more often
as rental horses, these animals
fare well as the .grass is quite
high and still nourishing and the
weather is gentle.
However. as winter sets in with
its heavy rains, freezing weather
and snow. I have seen thesoesame
horses that had served their oWn-
ers faithfully the past summer
standing in open fields with no
shelter and only the feed they
could scratch out of the frozen
ground often having to resort to
dried ferns, even bark off stumps.
Then often a snow comes "along
completely covering the ground
and then they are at the mercy of
how long the snow lasts, often
standing knee deep in the snow
for weeks, no shelter to get nnder
and nothing to eat. Some die, the
hardy ones pull through mere skel-
etons until mother nature is kind
enough to provide fresh grass with
the coming of spring and the
horses gradually build back up to
become useful for another summer
season.
It seems taat owners could pro-
vide some s6rt of shelter for'these
animals to get under when the
weather is rough, also that their
gross diet could be bolstered by ad-
ditional feed to help them over the
few bad months each year. Years
ago the public used to get indig-
nant about some Indian that
wasn't feeding his horse properly
during the winter months and
would notify the sheriff. The In-
dian would be brought into town,
fined or put in Jail for abuse to
dumb animals. Now this condi-
tion goes on every year with the
white man and nothing Is done
about it. Let's remedy this de-
plorable condition in our county,
it doesn't fit in with our American
way of life.
