THAT EXTRA DIME 
AMONG the minor horrors of war is the 
/y_terrible fact that, beginning with this 
issue, House & Garden will cost 35c on 
the newsstand. 
You have enough to bother you without 
being given a detailed explanation of why this 
is done. It seems that, in the interests of 
paper economy, the Government has forbidden 
unsold copies of magazines being returned by 
the newsdealer. And as the newsdealer has 
to live somehow and his chance of sales is 
being cut down and the price of paper and ink 
and cuts and electrotypes and printers’ devils is 
going up, the price has been advanced. 
And that reminds me of my shaving soap. 
I’ve always used one kind of shaving soap— 
ever since I was sixteen and took the first fuzz 
off my face. It is a good soap and has served 
me faithfully. Since 1914 the price has stead¬ 
ily been going up and every now and then I’m 
tempted to give it up and get something 
cheaper. But just about that time I recall 
how long I have used it and how good it has 
been and is—and I dig deeper into my jeans 
and stick to my old faithful. 
Unusual doors will give character to a 
room. Types of them are shown in this 
issue 
Doubtless, to a great many readers, House 
& Garden is just like that. They have always 
had the magazine and it has served them 
month in and month out with practical ideas 
and inspiration. Now the price has advanced 
ten cents on the newsstands. If you value the 
magazine it will be worth ten cents more to 
you. If you are wise, however, you will sub¬ 
scribe for a year and save $1.25. 
This doesn’t leave much space to talk about 
the November issue. It is the Fall Planting 
Number and contains some keenly practical 
material for the gardener—planting tables, a 
discussion of bulbs with planting charts, a 
group of pictures showing how to store vege¬ 
tables over the winter, and several other timely 
subjects. The interior decoration pages in¬ 
clude priced dining rooms, wall papers, French 
fabrics, and linens. You’ll like the houses, 
too,—the Italian house in New England and 
the Southern Colonial house in Oregon, and 
the little white house on the hill. 
You will notice in this September issue the 
beginning of a series of articles on equipping 
the kitchen. In October the arrangement to 
save floor space will be shown.
