HOUSES WITHOUT NAILS.

Many OF Them Were So Built In the South
During the War.
Did you ever see house built with
out nailsP Ihave. and tolerably neat
and comfortable. too. In Confederate
times. in the South. we learned q good
many arts unknown before to US The
women spun and wove their own
clothes. for instance. and the farmers
raised corn and hogs instead of cotton
and were never as independent before
or since. But there were a good many
articles always considered necessities
which we had to get along without
among them being coffee and nails
Fair substitutes were discovered for
coffee. however, and. as l said. we got
SO we could pretty nearly do without
nails. The ordinary farm house was
built Of logs. These were put up in
regular "pen" fashion. The door fac
ings were made Of split timber.

or more frequently by drawing.
knife and held in position by wooden
pins. The inside walls were faced
with the same timber, wooden pins
again taking the place of nails. But.
perhaps. the chef d'eurre of the SELF
taught mechanic was the roof This
was poser for while, but the prob
lem was solved and the roof was built
In this way: The rafters were put up
in the usual way, wooden pins fasten-
ing the tops and the fleet" Tho end
rafters, however. were longer than
the other. being extended over. say two
feet. or whatever distance you wished
to protect the roof beyond the wall.
The lathing was then pinned across
the rafters and you were ready for the
boards. Upright pins in the ends Of
the elongated rafters held a pole in po-
sition which served as a foot rest for
the first "layer' Of boards. elects .
foot long were then placed in position,
feet resting against the first pole. then
another pole was laid on. being held
up by these elects, and answering the
double purpose Of holding the first
layer Of boards In position and serving
as footrest for the next layer. This
process was repeated until the roof
was completed. Ingeniously-con.
structed locks were then placed on tho
doors and your Confederate house was
fnished.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat

How Farmers are Taxed.

1t is not uncommon to hear our
farmers complain Of the taxes they
have to pay. Sometimes they ere too
high and the payment Of them could
be largely lessened by increasing the
productive power Of an acre Of ground.
For instance: . farmer who sows poor
seed, raises scrub stock, or buys an.
tiquated or imperfect implements,
must certainly pay proportionately
high taxes. Not to mention the i'm.
provement he might make by getting
che best seed and live stock, he coulG
buy . Dcering Binder or Mower, and
safe money in the harvesting Of bis
grain and grass crops.
