use the columns of the REGISTER to
call your attention to what is fast be-
coming the abuse of a privilege. The
sidewalks of our village belong primarily
to pedestrians, and if we make bicycle
paths OF them, the responsibility is ours
to avoid not only hurting but frighten-
ing people who are walking. Coasting
and all fast riding must thus be done
away with when there is room for a
doubt as to the prOpriety Of either.
Particular precautions should be taken
in coming up behind pedestrians; the bell
should in every case be rung in ample
time for dismountng without collision if
the warning is not needed. Nervous
people are as liable to step in front of
the passing wheel as to one side if
startled. The roads of our village being
heavy and rough, it behoOves US, if we
wish to continue to use the sidewalks, to
cOncila.e by our polite and considerate
behavior our fellow-townsmen; il we
carry our reckless Indifference TOO far,
a law may be constructed which will
permanently curtail our privileges.
At present we have only to keep of
the sidewalk between the public school
and railway station and in using other
walks to remember that it is for our
interest not to prejudice people against
bicycists.

ting and injury from rats, which al
ways harbor under granaries that are
too near the ground. The height Of
the corner posts should be from 10 to
IL feet, depending somewhat upon
whether it is desired to use the space
above the bins and driveway for stor-
ing implements, etc.
In order that the building may be
used for storing wheat and oats as well
as corn, it is sided as tightly as may be
with ordinary 12-inch siding. How
ever, the sides of the bins next to the
driveway instead of being made tight
are simply fixed for holding ear corn.
being sided with 4-inch strips nailed
on the outside of the studding. The
strips are placed several inches apart.
Several narrow doorways lead from
each bin to the driveway. 1t is best to.
make these doors near the strong posts
which occur at intervals along the
driveway as shown in the illustration.
Let these doors extend to the floor OF
the bin. Whenever it is desired 20 fiji
the bins with small grain the 4-iuch
stuff need not be taken Off. Simply
make that side Of each bin tight By
siding it with ship-lHp, placing it on the
inside of the studding and mailing it
lightly. Or one size Of the driveway
can be made tight in the first place and
the other left for corn. There are tight
floors in the bins and also in the drive
way. The driveway is closed with
large double sliding doors. Good
strong bridges lead up to the doors
so that loaded wagon can be drawn
in without difficulty. The building is
rooted with shingles. BY making a
few alterations in the foundation the
floor can be left out of the driveway;
but in all cases it has been found to well
repay the extra cost. as it furnishes
an excellent place for cleaning grain
or for drying damp or wet grain. Be
sides being of value as place for shell
tering wagons, carriages, etc, it saves
much grain which would otherwise
he wasted in unloading wagons. Such
q building as shown in the cut can be
erected for about $3.50 or $500 and win
be found the handiest building on the
farm.-Farm and Home.

USEFUL FARM BUILDING.
Combination Corn Crib and Storage HOUSE
for Small Grain.

coordination Torn LTD ana Storage hOu80
for Small Grain.
Among the buildings needful to the
farmer, and yet of which there are COM
paratively few in existence, are those
for storing grain. The chief reason
why more of these are not built seems
TO be that frequently the amount Of
grain raised is not sufficient to justify
much of an outlay for this purpose, as
the corn crop can be stored in cheaper
cribs. A building which can be used
both as corn crib and for the storage
of small grain should do away with this
objection. In our illustration we pre-
sent a substantial structure, which IL
properly erected will answer a number
of purposes. The unusual size OF the
1895 corn crop means that something
must be done for its shelter. and the
above plan is submitted to the careful
consideration of corn growers. 1t may
be enlarged or elongated as needed.
The building consists of two long
cribs or bins with wide driveway be-
tween them. The width is 26 feet,
which is very convenient, as il allows a
width of feet for each bin and 10 feet
for each driveway. The length, Of
course, may vary according to the
means and needs of the builder, the
one shown in the illustration being 80
feet long. The foundation is of rock
piers placed at frequent intervals be-
tween the main sills and the numerous
cross sills. Have them of sufficient size
so as to place the stills at some distance
from the ground and thus prevent rot
