Rob1r's Making Concentri: Movement Upon

New York. Sept. 14.-News from the
seat Of war in South Africa is indecis-
i've but it is clear that Lord Roberts
is making a concentric movement upon
k0matip0ort. and has left Pretoria in
order to direct ii personally, says the
London correspondent of the Tribune.
Lydenburg has apparently been aban-
doned as soon as captured and the Brit
ish forces are in hot pursuit Of the rem
rart 0f the Boer army and driving It
eastward to the Portuguese frontier.
These tactics are bold. but in accord
with Lord Roberts strategy since Feb
ruary. KomatipOort is the new objec-
tive point. and when it is captured Lord
Roberts Will be credited with having
taken possession of the last Dutch rail-
way line and closed the door into
neutral territory. The work Of pacif-
cation will not have been thoroughly
worked out, but the main object will
have been secured. as was done when
Bloemfontein and Pretoria were occu-

tration shows an excellent plan. Dig
trench close to the barn, and then
dig in under the barn to the required
distance to accommodate the founda-
ton stones. Exactly under the edge Of
the barn, at the bottom of the wide
trench, drive stakes and put down a
rough board. Now fill in behind the
board with loose stones, put on another
old board and continue to fill in the
loose stones until they stand level with
the surface of the ground. The part of
the trench outside the boards can now
be filed in with earth, packing it down
solidly, leaving the old boards where
they are. The fiat stones above the
ground can then be put in and cement
ed. Perhaps they can be put in more
conveniently before filing in the out
side trench.-Orange Judd Farmer.

KEEPING STABLES CLEAN.
A Vermont Dairyman'a Idea Which
Seems to Possess Many Really
Valuable Features.

An article concerning the cleanliness
of COWS confined in stables, leads me to
submit an idea which have followed
with much satisfaction in my own sta
bles, thinking some of your readers
might profit by the same.
The platforms on which the cows
stand have gentle slope, are four feet
five inches long, terminating in rather
deep gutter. The hangers are cut low
and each animal is fastened by strap
around the neck, which is attached to
short bit of chain running up and
down an iron rod fixed to the back of
the manger. A partition extending
about one-fourth the width of the plat
form effectually separates the animals.
In front of the managers runs long
wooden trough Qined with galvanized
iron), eight inches wide and six inches
deep, having slight pitch. Water is

PERMANENT T ROADS.
They Should BE introduced Wherever
Big Sums Are Now spent for Tem-
porary Improvements.

Report is current that more than $780,
100000 are spent annually in this coun-
try for the temporary improvement ct
The public highways. A significant
sum, when it is considered that it's :x-
penditure leaves the country in no bet
ter condition than before its use. The
money spent in repairing the roads is
practically waste, for it gives no per-
manency to the improvement. A bridge
may be put in tomorrow, and next
week it washes out; a manhole may be
filed this week and next week a rain
transforms it into the same old mud
hole. A rut may be corrected, and in
less than "a hours the work is made void
and hence has to be repeated.
There is need for improvement and
repairs which shall be permanent and
substantial-not only of value to-mor-
row, but for all time to come. It were
better and more economical thorough
ly to improve one mile of road than to
throw up dump in the middle of 20
miles of road and call it improved. The
lack of permanency in the betterment
of our thoroughfares is the feature of
the good roads question to which large
importance should and does attach.
We have no definite plan for the i'm
provement of the roads, that at this
time would be universally adopted
with good results, but. in the absence
of plan we are in the midst of so many
bad roads as to compel the recognition
of vast need of feasible and prac-
ticable method. We allknow the pres
ent system is failure, costly blunder
and unsatisfactory everywhere, and be-
lieve that new system is bound to be
ushered in at an early day. In Sec
tions of Indiana and some other states
macadam roads have been constructed,
and the service is perfect. Where the
materials for macadamizing are at
hand, there is no better way of perma-
nently improving the highways. 1t is
not necessary to argue the value of i'm
proved roads to farmers, how they
would enhance the value of land, i'm.
prove the social conditions in the coun.
try, and enable farmers to get better
prices for their products in that they
could get them to market when prices
were high. Everybody believes we
should have good roads, but the people
are not active enough in their demands
and not agreed as to methods which
will insure effective action. There
needs to be concentration of effort, es.
pecially among the farmers, and agita
ton and thought should be constant
since both precede action. What prop
erly may be called good road is one OF
which the farmer can haul heavy loads
during rainy weather; one in which
there are no ruts, washouts and bumps
one that is good when the weather i!
bad, and over which team may pul
an empty wagon without experiencing
that fatigue so common on the rough
| rutty, ragged roads which annually ar<
worked at large aggregate expense ant
improved in general unevenness.-

AN IDEAL cow STABLE.

introduced at the upper end and kept
constantly though slowly running
throughout the day. After milking, it
is shut off and the trough emptied
through two-inch lead pipe leading
into a hopper-like box, for the purpose
of catching any particles of feed that
would otherwise tend to obstruct the
waste tiling pipe which cares for the
regular overflow. The trough is then
scrubbed out with a stiff brush and
flushed with clean water, so that it is
always sweet and clean. The overflow
pipe is also two inches, so that any or
dinary piece of fodder will slip through.
BY this arrangement the animals
have clean fresh water three times
daily in quantities that satisfy but do
not chill them, without the expense and
labor of heating, or using the rather
expensive individual tubs, with their
complicated valves, that from time to
time have appeared on the market.
At regular intervals of about Is feet,
near the back of the managers, are the
upright posts supporting the upper
stories of the barn.
To these I bolted, at right angles,
pieces of two by four-inch sticks, one
bolt in each stick, which permits it to
play easily up and down. To these
sticks are fastened lengthwise strips of
seven~eighths inch spruce four inches
wide. By means of pulleys in the cell
ing, through which run sash cord, these
frames are easily raised and lowered.
When they are down, the free end rests
at an angle on the top of the manger,
forcing the animal back so that any ex-
crement is deposited in the gutter and
not on the platform.
The end of the frame, which is holted
to the upright barn post, is placed at
such height that while it admits OF
the animals stepping forward SO as to
reach all parts of the manger, on rails
ing her head she comes in contact with
the frame and naturally steps back.
With the arrangement of the pulleys
before mentioned, it is no trouble to
raise the frame work for feeding and
watering. The water trough is supplied
with a sectional cover which is kept on
at all times save when watering. The
illustration may make the idea clearer
