In the Enquirer of Sundlyiappeared
the following telegram from c ,lnm bus.
Professor Andrews. of this city,
authorizes US to state that the article
is entirely wrong that. there never
was a promise out from Pro-. Bone
brake, nor a suggestion of such a
thing.
Columbus, Ohio, September 4.-The
app pointment Of Prof. William Neck, of
Dayton, as d member of the State
Board of School Examiners, bids fair
to stir up a storm about the head of
Prof. Bonebrake State School Commits
sioner. 1t is claimed that Mr.. Neck
does not hold a certificate from the
Board of School Examiners. to mem
bership in which he has just been ap-
pointed. The law does not require
that member Of the board shall hold
certificate, but the fact that he does
not is teing vigorously commented on
by the tea chers of the State.
1t is further claimed that in the ap-
pointment of Neck Prof. Bonebrake
broke a promise to Prof. Andrews, of
Marietta College, which gained for
him his nomination. At the time of his
nomination Bonebrake is said to have
pledged the place on the State Board
to Andrews in return for the support
of the Fifteenth District, where his op-
ponent, S. P. Sharkey, OF Eaton, hailed
from. Andrews delivered the goods,
and the break in Sharkey's strength
made Bonebroke's nomination certain.
Now it is claimed that the promise was
broken at the behest of DR.. Loves, of
Dayton. to whom the place was farmed
out by Bonebrake later.

AN OCTAGONAL BARN.
This style of Architecture Saves Con-
siderable Space and Is Just the
Thing for Dairy Farms.

The octagonal shape has been used
here and hereabout the country for
barns and other buildings, and with
generally satisfactory results. 1t
seems, therefore, somewhat strange
that with these few satisfactory ex-
amples before them our barn-buildcrs
have not given more serious thought
to this style of building, especially as
an octagon presents no difficult prob
lens in construction, and lends itself
admirably to giving very large
amount of available space for stock
ard for the storage of fodder.
AS an illustration of this idea a cut
and an indoor plan of an octagonal
dairy barn are presented herewith.
BY this plan large amount of space
is afforded for cattle stalls, while still
giving space for calf pens, box stall
for cowssand grain and implement
room. IN the ordinary barn the silo
must come out of space that might
otherwise be utilized for stock Here
1t occupies the center of the barn, and
is Itself octagonal in shape-a style
that highly commends itself to the
dairyman, since ii does away with the

PLYING THE POOR.
A Tramp Who Would Not Take the
Crust from n Needy Wom-
ans Mouth.

Sometimes the tramp gets the better of the
thrifty housewife. The mistress of pretty
little cottage at Sausalito-she only inherited
about 100000, and SO is obliged to be frugal
is the object of a little criticism from her
friends because of her reputed parsimony.
Last Saturday, as she was sitting on her pi-
azza, overlooking the water, and waiting for
Ted to come home, a passing knight OF the
road humbly solicited bite. The young
woman could not withstand the petition, so
she went herself to the bread box, which was
filed with freshly-baked loaves and brought
out to the waiting vagrant two slices of
boardlike consistency which had been baked
many days earlier. As she presented her
bounty she felt just trihe ashamed of it.
I'VE are very poor ourselves" she said, in
muttered apology.
The outcast received the crust with a
courteous THANK you, and turned away
A moment later he returned and handed
the young heiress the crusts and also a
nickel.
II am very sorry for you," he said, in gem
tie tones Of genuine sympathy.-San Fran
cisco News Letter.

time II is wiped of daily. After IL
days 1t is thoroughly scraped and
washed in limewater, placed on shelves
and kept clean. II layer Of Shiny
mold should again appear, the cheese
must again be scraped and washed
with lime.

Objectionable corners that in rectan-
gular silos give so much trouble. The
silo, being in the center of the barn,
can be carried up as high as may be
desired, and is most conveniently stu
ated with reference to feeding the
stock. In fact. this is one of the strong
points of the octagonal form for q
barn-the ease with which the stock
can be fed.
In the plan illustrated the feed floor
is lighted by large window in front
and by the light that is admitted in
great abundance behind the cattle.
The silo in the modern dairy barn is
expected to supply great part of the
bulky food, but some provision must be
made for the storing of hay and other
The space over the stalls
and peEs, entirely around the barn,
is given up to this. The hay is hauled In
at the main doorway and carried
about to its destination by fork, or
it can be put in from the outside
through the windows that are shown
under the caves. Where the building
is located upon sloping ground cell
lar for the storing of manure can be
had.
The barn plan shown here is about
SO feet in diameter. The stalls could

WEIGHT OF ROLLERS.
A Problem Which IL Calculated to
Puzzle md Annoy Inexperi-
enced Road Builders.

There are sections of the country
which pride themselves on their ma.
cadam roads but which fail to con-
struct them in a scientific manner, ani
do not get the results that should fol-
low such heavy expenditures as they
make. One serious fault is the lack OF
proper rolling, light rollers drawn by
two or four horses being employed.
They carnot compact the stone by
such methods and, consequently, re-
sort TO free use Of clay for binding"
purposes. \ smooth surface is secured
at the outset, but it soon wears and
ruts, and gets muddy with every storm.
In considering the best weight for n
roller the Municipal World states the
case fairly, as follows: "a heavy road
roller is without question an indis-
pensable implement in the construc-
tion OF macadam streets. Macadam
roads were, of course, built before
steam rollers were invented, but crops
were harvested before self binders
were invented. The effect of roller in
road making is as great an advance on
the old results as is the use of the self
binder on the work of the cradle.
There are different kinds and
classes of rollers. The horse roller
weighing six or eight tons, will do fair
~ well If steam roller cannot be at
forded, but the horse roller is not suf-
ficiently heavy and has to be used
much longer on given section than a
heavy steam roller to produce the~be
results. The feet of the horses. in ex-
erting sufficient strength to move the
roller. sink into and disturb the road
metal, and thereby injure the shape
and quality Of the roadway. There is
a danger. on the other hand, of having
a steam roller which is too heavy. A
very heavy roller will sometimes sink
into loose soil and create a mound over
which,it cannot pass. The same result
viii sometimes occur with an excess
lively heavy roller on layer of loose
stone. The heavy roller is more liable,
too, to injure underground pipes,
catch basins, culverts. bridges, or dis
turb sidewalks.
"For these reasons, a roller exceed
ing ten or twelve tons in weight is fire.
quently not desirable. In districts
where the natural soil is gravelly, or
of stiff clay, a heavy roller may gen.
orally be operated successfully, but
some municipalities have made the mis-
take of purchasing too heavy roller
and have found it necessary to use a
light horse roller in consolidating the
subsoi and first layers. Nor If the
stone used in the construction of
macadam streets is of soft nature. is
n heavy roller. say of 90 tons. desira BILE
even in the finishing courses. as the
crushing effect has been found in some
cases to crumble and pulverize the
stone, rather than merely consolidate
It.
"For new work, in which the dirt
foundation must be rolled, a weight Of
IL tons is generally the most service
able; but for picking up an old road
way and consolidating it or for fin
ishing new work. IS tons is better.
Where a town owns only one roller ii is
generally advisable to consider very
carefully the work to be done before
purchasing a roller of over 12 tons
weight"

LESSON FROM ABROAD.
How the Work of Forest Preservn-
ton Is Carried on systemat-
icnIly In Germany.

A correspondent of the Chicago Rec
ord tells about the way trees are
guarded in Germany. The German
government tries to keep about 25 per
cent. of the land in trees, and this re-
suits in beautiful park-like forests, es-
pecially along the hills and mountains
and other rough lands that could not
be agriculturally cultivated.
There is q minister of forests in the
cabinet. and the whole empire is di-
vided into districts. each one presided
over by director, who ranks the same
as colonel in the army. This man
must be a graduate of one of the four
established schools of forestry in the
empire and must hold degree from
university. Each of these districts is
again divided into smaller areas, over
which is an Inspector, who ranks as a
captain, his rule extending over sew
eral townships, in each Of which is a
head forester with several assistants,
all Of whom must be men educated for
this service.
These officers have charge of all the
forest growth of the country, public
and private. Parks, gardens. pleasure
grounds, streets and boulevards are
all under their jurisdiction. and not
tree in the empire but is subject to
their dictum. They see that all public
grounds are kept in order, direct what
trees may or shall be cut. and II any
man fells tree without being given
permission to do so he is subject to
heavy penalty.
Every land owner must keep a cer-
tain proportion of his land in trees,
which must be planted and cared for
under the supervision of the head for
ester. Fruit trees on public or pri-
vate grounds are subject to the same
close supervision.
1t might be well II some such super.
vision were possible in this country.
but our only hope for forest preservu-
tion is in making II popular by con-
tinued agitation and higher education.

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

Scarlet flowers are said to withstand
drought better than those of other
colors.
Mimulus is very nice for the window
garden, and does not require a great
amount of sunshine.
There is probably no better goose
berry for this country than the Column
bus. 1t is very prolific and is claimed
to be absolutely free from mildew.
II is said that the odor Of flowers
is antiseptic, and that during epidem-
ics those who are employed where they
constantly breathe the perfume are
exempt. :.

KEY WEST, March 25.-Miss CLARA
Barton, who has just returned from
Havana, said to the Associated Press
correspondent:
81 wish to say to the whole world
through the Associated Press that the
published statements regarding inter-
nal disSension in the Red Cross, tar
diness Of Supplying relief and stories
Of my own feeble health are utterly
without foundation. The statement
that my health or mental powers are
impaired is cruelty false. Dissension
emanates from outside and not in
side the Red Cross"
Continuing she said:
"During the six weeks 1 have been
in Cuba the condition of thousands Of
starving people has been much i'm
proved, thanks TO the generosity Of
the Americans But much more re .
mains to be done, and it seems hard
that work of this description is
hampered by external criticism and
interference, am going to my home
in Washington, and expect to return
to Cuba shortly"
Miss Barton's departure from Ha-
vana was unexpected. 1t is presumed
in Washington she will take some
steps concerning the "interference"
referred to.
