HORSES
Sixteen Victims Of n Fire of an I'm
known Cause.

Minneapolis, July 2.-Serious loss of
animal life attended a fire In the
northern end Of the city last evening,
when the barn of john. nubay, 912
Twelfth avenue north, went up in
smoke, as did also the contents, while
sixteen horses persisted in the flames.
So quickly did the fire spread that it
was found impossible to remove the
animals, with the exception of three,
which escaped with severe bruises.
The neighing Of the imprisoned beasts
was painful to hear. They jumped
around and rushed furiously against
the sides of the stalls in frantic en-
deavors to escape from the heat and
flames, but to no purpose, as no as
sistance could be given. A few min
utes only elapsed before the falling
Of the building and, the animals were
crushed to death.

is not strange that the true Office and
use of open bitches should be under
rated. The objections to the open ditch
are several, some of which are the fol-
lowing: 1t takes a strip of land which
with an underdrain would be valuable
for cultivation, and makes 1t of no use
except for q water course. It divides
fields into shapes inconvenient for cul-
tivating. 1t requires considerable work

objections? In many cases. none; in
others the single advantage that the
large open ditch will carry the drainage

desires to drain, while tile, of reasona-
BILE size and cost, will not.
In accomplishing successful drainage,

desired end. Farmers are finding that
they are trying to force more water
through their tiles than they are capa-
BILE of carrying, though many cases Of
failure are owing to inaccurate laying
and DISTRACTED outlet.
The use of open bitches is to carry
the excessive flood water that sometimes
falls on our land in short time, and
above all, to give a ready and free out
let to all tile drains which are dis
charged into it. A farmer once re-
marked to the writer: "The trouble
with tile drains is that must have a
place for the water to jump off and get
away at the outlet" He stated the ini-
tial truth Of undertaking. We must
get the water away from the outlet.
Carrying out this precept often makes
the open ditch a necessity. Especially
is this true in fiat prairie lands. Sloughs
are the water courses for the natural
drainage of surrounding higher lands,
and when deepened in the center by
means of large open ditch, they
afford an excellent outlet for tile drains,
and also give ready exit for surface
water which gathers in large quanti-
ties from rapidly melting SHOWS; from
rains that fall when the ground is fro
zen, and from excessive rainfalls.
