For tho Farm.

Now la the time when farmers gen.
orally look after their their sranar-
les and fix the old ones or build new
ones. T&t
One OF the principal things in
building 4 Rranary is to build it 80
as to protect the grain from rats.
mice. etc, but a great many Of them
in this country do not fill the pur-
pose. 1t might, therefore, not be
out of the way to say a few words
concerning the matter.
There probably is not one farm
where there are not more or less
rats or mice, and everybody knows
how hard it Ia to keep them from
destroying everything In reach.
II the loss in grain only for one sim
gle year caused by said animals
could be estimated, it would certain
~ surprise many farmers who do
not pay any attention to it.
Can you afford to raise grain and
feed an army OF rats, and may be
half starve your domestic animals?
Certainly not. To keep those ami
mails away from your grain Is very
simple, yet it must be done with
care.
A granary should stand by itself
and not join any other building.
Stand it on posts dug down in the
ground, SO that two feet of the
post are above the ground, and
the number and size Of posts should
be according to the size of the build
ing. On top of the posts, nail on tin,
old stovepipe, or anything thelike, let
it run three or four inches all around.
Be sure not to leave any weak spot
where they can climb over or crawl
through. +
That ia the main thing, and now
you can make your bnilding t" suit
yourself. with granary in the middle
and a small corn crib on one or both
sides under one roof. . ...s5 r.
The stills ought to be Of white oak
II possible, and pinned or spiked to
the posts, and studdings spiked to
both jOists and stills. The building
ehould not be very high, as the wind
might blow it over when it is emp
ty. Make a stairway with two or
three steps 90 that it can be turned
from the building when not In use,
and never stand any thing against
the building, that would serve as q
stairway for the ones you aim to
keep out. Il
1t may cost a trifle more either in
material or labor to build this way,
but 1t will more than pay for the
extra cost In one year.
