In a state of extreme degradation
And to man, the stern tyrant, her services

Never dreaming of emancipation.

OF Feminine Franchise and Freedom,
And will shortly arrange
A most radical change:

With tyranny, almost inhuman;

A Word About Corn Fodder.

Iowa farmers, it appears, are awak-
ing to the Importance Of the value Of
corn fodder. AT the last Iowa stock
breeders convention the subject Of corn
fodder excited much interest. Every
body present agreed as to it's value and
also that moro than ever was saved this
fall. There was disagreement in regard
TO the best way to save and feed it.
Some advocated cutting Oh shedding,
while others maintained that the cheap
est cutters and shredders We're the jaws
of steers. This may be true if the fod-
der is to be led outdoors, but cutting is
advocated for barn feeding not because
it helps the cattle i'll masticating, and
will induce them to eat more of it,
though this is probably true, but be-
cause, everything considered, it is a SAL
ing of labor.

Live Stock Points.

One cause of weak hogs is said to be
that swine are bred too young.
Norwegian ponies are not yet much
known in this country, but they are
thoroughly appreciated by travellers in
Norway. They are small, but the most
hardy and sure footed of their kind.
They are dun in color, with a black
mark along the backbone. There are few
good roads in Norway, and these ponies
must climb mountains, pass around the
edges Of precipices and convey loads
along the narrowest and most dangerous
paths. Our pony breeders in America
would do we'll to look into the matter of
introducing these animals into the Unit
ed States. They are almost equal to
goats for climbing.
Make your land produce bigger crops,
keep a better class Of farm animals and
treat them we'll, learn economical meth
DDS of doing things, and you will pros
per and be happy in spite Of being a
farmer.
The good stockman always takes the
best care of his corn fodder and has
winter shelter for his stock wherever
they need it.

HIGH SCHOOL GAN
The Trades Council Committee Talks
Back to the ~Stonemasons' Union.

Tie Trades Council COMMITTEE Talks
Back to the Stonemasons' Union.
GREAT FALLS, Dec. 20, 1894.
To the Editor Of The Tribune:
The report submitted to the public by
the committee from the Stonemasons
union as to the condition of the work
performed on the high school building
was a ray of hope for those who have
attempted to defend the contractor, the
architect and the school board. 1t was
a sweet morsel which they rolled under
their tongues and chewed on it to their
hearts content.
Well, the stonemasons' committee
labored and they brought forth a docu-
ment which, if carefully read, goes to
show that they know the work has not
been done according to the plans and
specifications, but they wanted to give
the contractor the best of it by saying
that the foundation is all right and, like
! Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet
ut is not so deep as a we'll,
Nor as wide as a church door,
But it is enough"
And, it might be added to the above,
the report of the Trades and Labor COM
| mittee "hurts.'
it appears from the stonemasons' re-
port that the committee was composed
of men who had worked on the job
men who were not Dan Mckay's dis
charged employees; and they i~nsinuate
that no one knows anything about d
foundation but the committee. The men
who composed the committee are honest
men and they mean well, but they made
a mess of it in that report.
Now, no one has ever charged the
men who worked on the school house
with being to blame for the bad work in
the construction of the foundation.
When a mechanic is workingon a build
ing he goes according to instructions
from the bosses, and if anything goes
wrong the mechanic is not held respon-
sible. If the architect accepts the
work-be it in line with the speciica-
tions or otherwise-the workmen cannot
be censured.
The stonemasons' committee did not
find anything in the trades council COM
mittee report to contradict. They simply
raise the cry that the foundation is good
enough, regardless of the specifications.
One peculiar thing that is noticed in
their manifesto is that part referring to
the east wall. They admit that it is out
Of line, but attribute it to the wind,
which blew 80 hard that it was impossi-
Bile to keep the lines straight. As q ,
natter Of fact the wall is bowed toward !
the west, and generally the winds in

as to the stone used in the school build
ing and that in other buildings in this
city. 1t makes the assertion that the
stone is not of the quality called for in
the specifications.
To condense this matter into a nut
shell, the Trades Council committee
stands by its assertion that the work
has not been done according to the
specifications. 1t might be stated that
if as many defects are found on the ex-
penditure of between $4,000 and S15,-
600, how many defects would have been
discovered on the expenditure of $780,
600? The people do not want a repeti-
ton of the work on the South side

o STORING ICE.
How to Build an Icehouse and How and
When to Fill 1t.

How to Build an Icehouse and How and
When to Fill 1t.
The simplest kind Of a structure will
keep ice. A cheap board building with
cracks battened will answer the pur-
pose. For a permanent house it is we'll
to build q brick or stone foundation
and to bed the stills in mortar. The
walls should be double and can be
made SO by using ? by s lumber for
studding. Line both sides with n
and board up tight, but do not fill in.
Let the roof project on all sides or build
under the shade of a tree Or on the
north side of a larger structure. Always
leave plenty OF ventilation at the gable
ends. Have a drain at the bottom ex-
tending out a considerable distance.
Cover the mouth of this drain in the
house with n wire screen and then cover
the whole bottom with a layer of saw
dust a foot thick.
The keeping of ice depends quite as
much on the packing as OH the house in
which it is stored. Sawdust or dry tan
bark furnishes the best packing material.
The ncxt best is chatf or cut straw and
after these uncut straw.
In a structure such as we have de.
scribed ten inches of sawdust on the
sides is sufficient or 13 or 10 inches Of
cut straw. Do not put a thick layer of
sawdust on top Of the ice-six or eight
inches is enough.
Fill the house in freezing weather
only for the best results. Have the
cakes as nearly uniform in size as posi-
BILE and pack closely, filling cracks with
pounded ice to make the mass as solid
as possible. The advice is often given
to pour water on after filling, but The
Farm Journal says this is unwise advice,
SO don't do it. Forty cubic feet of ice
will make about a ton. The size of the
house wanted can be figured on this
basis.

In the Poultry House.

A few lice in the henhouse now mean
thousands later. Poor hens and few If
any eggs will be the result. Do you
think it will pay to feed wheat to lice?
That is what many do without a muir
mur-at the lice. The hens are only
the go betweens and get all the curses.
Clean out everything-nests, roosts,
partitions-and scrub them with kero-
sene. Paint everything with strong lye
made of wood ashes, convert the pests
into soap and then scrub the building
with them. Cut new poles for roosts and
hang them with wires fastened to the
roof. Dig out the floor with a hoe and
wash it. When dry, whitewash every
part. 1t will pay to do a good job while
about it. 1t will be too cold by and by,
and then those pullets must begin lay,
ing before cold weather, or they will
hold off till spring. To succeed you
must give them meat, not make meal
of them for parasites.
The pullets may, with care and com
fort, pay a profit on their cost before
spring. They will not if they are ami
mated vermin factories. A supply o
leaves packed away for use on the floor
will make a cheerful sound as the hen
''rustle" for wheat among them on coll
days. Several loads of buckwheat hull
will be a profitable investment. TIL
