NEAT POULTRY HOUSE.

The Building Here Described Has Many
Points in Its Favor.
There are many plans for houses useS
in keeping laying hens. Each one has
its points in value. The building shown
in this illustration has the practical
points in it's favor-the part for laying
is separate from the part where the
fowls roost, feed and seek outdoor eXer-
else. There is no doubt of the advan-
tage of seclusion and quiet for all lay
ers.
Figure 1 shows the exterior view.
The place for cooking the food is To-
Gated outside in the small shed afford.

Candidate Mckinley not long as

candidate Mckinley not long ago
declared that "our foreign trade, so
precipitately cut off by adverse legis-
;ation. must be reopened for our sur
plus agricultural and manufacturing
products" Now that the reports of
exports and imports for the full fiscal
year have appeared, we have an oppor-
tunity to see how our foreign trade has
been SO precipitately cut off. How
careless a man may be will be seen by
comparing the candidates statement
with the official report that our exports
for the year just closed exceeded those
Of every year except one under the Nc
Kiniey tariff, while the imports were
less by 81, 5O0,000 than the annual aver
age of the four Mckinley tariff years.
and less by nearly $50, OOO, 900 than the
average for the first three years q
that tariff.-Boston Globe.

that he can take care Of to be nomI-

that the two Democratic sheets are OPP

Lieut.. N. E. Mason, the officer in charge
of the naval proving grounds at IndiaI

elaborate report to the Navy Department
In regard to the many important tests Of
modern arms. armor and high explosives
that were made during the past year. Since
the last annual report, he says. the brick
magazine. high-explosive magazine ant
filling house have been entirely completed
and are now in use. These buildings are OF
ample size for the uses required, and are
we'll ventilated and protected from fire, anG
also from sudden changes Of temperature
and moisture, the trouble with the ex
tremes of temperature and moisture expe
rienced with the old magazines having
been entirely remedied.

erected, to be built of brick made on the
reservation.
Inc hydraulic pumping machinery, the
accumulator, ETC., are only protected by ar
old, tumble-down building, erected from
scrap material obtained from the old shiI
house at the navy yard. This pumping
plant should be housed in, and under The
same roof there should be built a room fol
armor- piercing and other projec tiles mo
ioaded). and tool house. and also black
smith shop. This building could be readil,
built at a cost Of $1,000, the brick to be
made on the reservation. A small carpen
ter shop. not to cost more than 500 is
needed very much. and should be erected
at some convenient place. sufficiently dis
tant from the machine shop and store
house.
"a forage shed should be erected at tn,
stable in order to cover and protect the
forage. The barn on the Irwin farm should
also be repaired for this same purpose.
The old wooden bomb proof at the range
battery Is fast rotting out and falling te
pieces and should be replaced by a suit
able brick bomb proof as soon as possible
AS this Is the largest shelter on the sta
tlon, and the one generally used by the
employees working near at hand durinl
tests, 1t should be placed in good condition
at once.

Opposing Estimates Made by Party
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
BALTIMORE, Md. October 29.-Messrs.
William B. Clagett and Fillmore Beall of
Prince Georges county were callers at the
democratic headquarters this morning.
They stated that Bryan would carry the
county by substantial majority, and that
Robert Moss. the congressional nominee.
would run considerably ahead Of the ma
tional ticket
State Senator Chas. c. Crothers of Cecil
county was in town today. He told The
Star correspondent that the democrats
would carry Cecil by 80 majority GER
tainly, and that he was prepared to see
Bryan and Mr.. George NJ. Jewett, the con-
gressional nominee, get as high as 900 ma
]or1ty over their republican opponents
Senator-clect Wellington when shown this
estimate said: Senator Crothers ought to
know his own county. but 1 believe his
estimate Is very erroneous. I have been
informed by our own managers there that
we shall carry the county by $50, at least,
and the tremendous enthusiasm for Nc
Kinley displayed at all the meetings 1 have
addressed there leads me to accept our
estimate, which is conservative as cor
rect
Mr.. Wellington also reiterated his asser.
tions that Mckinley would carry Maryland
by 5000.
