This is cleanly, and re- moves any objection that might be raised to plank partitions. Any person contemplating the croo- The latest notion as to stalls is in favor of box stalls. These allow the cows greater freedom. the idea being that cows do best when they are in the most contented trame of mind pos- sible; anything that tends to promote absolute content and mental serenity isreflected favorably at the milk pail. Consequently, it is argued that a box stall for the cows pays better. In the newest barn that we have seen the partitions between the stalls are constructed of two-_inch_ galvanized The floors of these barns for stock are made of wood. cement, or various kinds of artificial stone. In some mangers are built for feeding the cat- tle, while in others they are fed from the cement floor, a concavity having been shaped in the cement. ‘ At the end of the row is a waterpipe, and by turning a faucet running water will flow through the whole of this gutter in front of the cows for watering them, and also for flushing and cleaning the gutter. A similar device is frequently constructed in the rear of the cows for manure. Under this system of caring for cattle the manure must be remov- ed from the barn every day, and in some instances is hauled at once on to the land. Some barns are fitted with a scraper. which runs the whole length for gathering up the manure and depositing it in a cart at the end of the row. i The ell for the stock will be of such ilength as is necessary to accommodate 'all the animals to be kept; there may be more than one if needed. This ell is usually of sifficient width to allow room for the passage of a wagon load- ed with green crops through the cen- tre. with a row of stalls on each side, and liberal passage ways in the rear. These ells are usually built with moni- tor roofs, well supplied with windows which can be opened from the barn floor by rods and gears. It is usually customary to open all on one side or the other, according to the direction of the wind. Each side oi this stock ell has a row of windows, all of which are stationary at the bottom and arranged to swing inward a few inches at the top, thus any air through them will be given an upward tendency on its en- tering the barn, and will not come in a sharp draught upon the cattle stand- ing near the window. In addition to this many barns have ventilating ducts for the admission of pure air from the outside. These ducts are useful, parti- cularly in extreme weather, when it might not be considered prudent to open the windows behind the cows. Ex- cept in the coldest nights, many farm- ers keep the windows in the monitor roof slightly ajar for purposes of ven-. tilation. 9 There are many adaptations of this principle, according to circumstances, the lay of the land. the size of the dairy and the means of: the owner. In a number of instances where these modern barns have been built, the land is of such a slope, as to allow of a light, dry, airy basement under the whole of the main barn which affords and farm machinery. In some in- stances the lay of the land is such that loads can be driven not only on to the main floor of. the barn, but also on to an upper floor. In the latter case much of the grain, etc" can be unload- ed so as to drop by gravity to the bins, saving a great deal of manual labor, Many of these new barns are fitted for the use of a for): for unloading hay. In some cases the silo is built in the barn, the silo being rectangular and occupying a corner of the barn, or being circular and enclosed in the barn, according to the tastes of. the owner. The circular silo seems on the whole to_ be growing in favor. the technical details of the age to‘ which the structure is to be put. The more modern and best artafige‘d Barns that We knew anything of have Been Constructed by practical daiiymen. The chafi’g'ing ideas rehtiv‘e te barn construction in due to a- growth of the feeling that cattle must have more light. more air, and- better‘ air than was formerly supposed; to be necessary.

Mr. Vale explained the various con- stituents of canary seed, and demon- strated that they were in a very differ- ent proportion from that required by nature. Starch is the great enemy of the human race, according to Mr. Vale. If the system was entirely free from starchy foods one would throw off di- sease without effort, and the modern Briton would live, as his forebears, to one hundred and twenty years.

No fixed rule can be laid down, but it is very necessary that the horses be well fed. They must come to the auc- tion with glossy coats, smooth hair and must be well broken. While horses are being fattened for market they must be given an hour’s exercise daily. It is very necessary that they should be taken to town occasion- ally so as to become accustomed to steam and electric cars. No horse should be younger than five years, nor older than eight to bring a good price.

Mr. Stoddard is the old- est American poet alive. Congressman Champ Clark the other day sold for $125 to Frank L.
