Much Of the expensive aud in every

BUILT A STRAW BARN.
How q Dickinson Farmer Has Fur.
nished Cheap Shelter.


TALMAGE, Oct. 2S.-The high price
Of lumber in this section Of the coun.
try has put the farmer to thinking as
TO whether there could not be found
some cheaper material by which
buildings could be erected. A few
farmers In this section have solved
the problem which will demonstrate
the usefulness OF the Kansas straw as
a factor in building material.
J. L. Book, prosperous farmer, is
the first to try the experiment. He
proposes to bale straw to the extent
OF about six tons and will make a cat.
tie shed 32xl0x7 feet. The roof will
be matched with slough grass, making
it warm, comfortable place for
stock. Mr.. Book says the cost Of
material will not be over IS and 1t is
claimed the bales Of straw will last
about eight years. The structure can
easily be changed to another place.
The vast amount OF straw which is
not god enough for feed could be
utilized in this manner and make a
great saving for the farmers.
Mr.. Book is very enthusiastic over
this0project and thinks all farmers
should so use their straw. The idea,
il a good one, will be. followed BY
many who are DESTROYS of providing
shelter for their stock during severe
winters.

pAsTUR1NG THE WHEAT.
Cattle Have Been Turned on Many
Fields.

The splendid growth Of wheat in
this county has given the farmers
quick pasturage. Many farmers
have already turned their cattle on
the fields and the wheat being six
inches high is furnishing an abun.
dance Of feed. The pasturing will do
the wheat good, say experienced
farmers, because by eating it off the
cattle will prevent the stalks lodging
the hessian fly which warm weather
has made very numerous and active.
With reasonably open winter the
cattle will be carried through much
better than was anticipated.
