EMPEROR WILLIAM has only portraits
of bismarck and Won Molke in the mu-

CUEET VICTORIA has sent q splendid

was admitted into the Eardic Circle at
the recent Welsh Eistedfodd and given
the blue ribbon of the order. She didn't
have to ride the goat, but was compelled
to listen TO the singing of large num-
Der of Welsh poems.
BISMARCK is not good conversations
alist and is worse orator. While MAX
ing public address he sways himself
backward and forward, twirls his
thumbs, occasionally looks at scrap of
paper upon which he has written some
notes, and altogether is a very good i'm
itation of a man who is embarrassed if
not intimidated. Still Bismarck always
manages to say something worth while.

stalls running across the barn. Each has its
special advantages.
AS cattle generally thrive rather better on
tepid than on ice-cold water, it is well where
practicable to bring the drinking supply from
spring, under ground, and into the stables at a
temperature of 20 degrees or more above the
freezing water in open streams.
Long barns may have 4 floor passage through
the whole length and with double doors at each
end. the passage being just wide enough for
loads, which may thus be unloaded at any part.
Platforms or poles over this floor will utilize
the space above.
As d general rule farmers never get room
enough in their barns. usually from a want of a
full previous estimate of capacity. They
should. therefore, ascertain nearly prac-
ticable what they will probably want to store
under shelter of all the products of the farm, in
addition to the space for domestic animals and
for tools and machinery.
Allow 5x14 feet for each horse 4x12 feet for
each COW, 20 feet square or more for tools and
machinery, twice this space for SilO 600 cubic
feet for each ton of average hay, about or near
ly the same for unthreshed grain, threshing
