Roofs 1i,l. farm Buildings.

There are various ways Of forming
roofs for farm buildings, depending upon
the requirements of each. A barn
protects valuable and perishable proper
ty, and the roof of it should be tight and
durable as well US light, because of the
size of it and the necessity for frame to
correspond with the weight of it. There
is nothing better than shaved pine OF
cedar shingle roof for barn, as it is
light, weather-proof, and will last long
time. For hay barracks, wagon and tool
sheds a less expensive roof will answer,
and such one may be made ofhalf:inch,
dry, seasoned boards, eight inches wide,
placed up and down from cave to peak,
and the joints covered with battens of
the same thickness, three inches wide.
also we'll seasoned. The battens should
be nailed with clinch nail or annealed
wrought nails clinched on the under side.
The pitch of the roof should be at least
one-half, SO as to shed water and snow
easily. It will not pay to use tongue and
grooved boards or stri ps Of tin for the
joints.

The quality of grain, especially wheat,
is much affected by the season. In a dry
season, as last year, the wheat is hard
and dry and makes very superior -four,
while in q wet season, as the present, it
is soft and makes interior flour. Com
plants are already made about the quail
ity of the new flour, and the markets
hade been affected thereby to some ex-
tent. Upon this account it would be wise
to defer thrcsl,ing until the grain has
gone through its usual sweating stage in
the straw, during which when III the
straw it takes no injury. but becomes RI
pened and improved in quality. Wheat
that is threshed before this sweating in
the barn occurs..is in danger Of sweating

tainted by gases from the sewer, and
that some Of the pipes in the wall must
be leaky. She could not convince him

called in she went to the upper story,
and pouring quantity Of valerian into
q set wash-bowl, let it trickle down.
Soon there was smell of valerian in
the parlor, upon which she brought in
her two cats. The felines shifted the vale
rian with evident delight, and quickly
found their way to an adjoining closet,
and then to shelf, where they seemed
to find the smell to be the strongest
The landlord sent for one Of the maligned

bowl with the sewer. That woman ought
