from the roof, to permit Of ventilation,
but wide enough to prevent rain get
ting in.,issi s,tt2S As8i7 gusf vi %.3tTs
The doors are made of single thick
ness of boards; care should, however,
5be taken to have them tight, so as not
to permit of circulation of air. To
make them more effective, the space
between the door and the boards
placed on the inside of the door frame,
to prevent sawdust or other packing
material used from falling out, can be
padded with straw, when the house is
filled. The accompanying figure rep
resents this house and gives, a good
idea of its method of construction.
The expense of constructing the build
ing above described will depend large
~ on the cost of material, but should
not exceed $25. Often there are waste
timbers or boards about the farm
which can be. made to answer very
well. To protect the house from the
beating rays of the sun, it is best built
under the shade of a large tree or on
the north side Of some larger building.
IT'S effectiveness in keeping ice will
thus be greatly increased. Orange

THE VALUE OF CHEESE.
Il Ia oae - the Most Perfect ana
Wholesonae FooAs, Known to
the Human Race.

Our people are not educated to the
use of cheese, q writer in Field and
Farmer says. They nibble at it and
that is about all. They never UNDER
stood what cheese is for. Their tastes
run more in the line Of ordinary sta
pies, and they have looked upon cheese
as sort Of after-dinner proposition.
something to come in after salads and
desserts. 1t is too frequently served at
the late dinner, instead of being q part
'of the mans meal Of the day, and the
average hotel proprietor knows no bet
ter. He gives it as sort Of knick-
knack-something that had to be given
on the bill of fare. The piece usually
given guest will not average any lar
ger than that required to bait a; mouse
trap. In every other country than the
United States the one item Of cheese
forms a part Of the daily existence.
Take the Frenchman and he will make
meal off Roquefort.. The Englishman
is never without his Cheshire or Still
ton, and the. laborer of old England
will have nothing else in his pail but
two or three slices Of bread and q pound
or more, Of cheese. The German and
Swiss are equally partial to cheese, and
are daily consumers in large. quanti-
ties of the Swiss brands The italian
must have his Gorgonzola and the Hol-
lander his Edam. All these people are
as healthful as the Americans, and I:
have no doubt but that the cheese-eat-
ing laborer Of the foreign countries is
a healthier and stronger man. The
American has never realized what
cheese really is to the line of articles
that make up the daily food. While
cheese is 'by-product Of the cow, It
stands next to butter. The manufac-
ture is very simple and the making up
of a cheese to suit the palate is like
an old granny making a dumpling-
few know how. Cheese is the most
.nourishing article of diet that can be !
imagined. There are more nourish-
ment and more muscle-producing quail
tiles in three ounces of cheese than in
a pound of meat, and there is no waste
to it. 1t is all edible, and while maxi
ing fiber it also produces heat. It is
also less injurious to the system than
meat, especially in hot weather. It
has frequently been said that one rea-
son Americans do not eat cheese SO
much is because of the strong odor pc
culiar to some of the makes. This is
not reasonable excuse for turning
down an article so wholesome as de-
cent cheese. Limburgeri is not the only
cheese made. Others complain of live
germs in some cheese. The American
may be too considerate of possible skip
pers, but they are part of the material
necessary to nourish the system, and
are not at all so dangerous as many of
the canned goods one buys; 1t is the
process of decay that makes the strong
aroma, but in its development it is age
that improves it.

Breeding for Better. Cows.

The cows on many farms would be
considered ffrst-class producersif each
cows product amounted to 200 pounds
of butter per year, yet it is claimed by
some of the best dairymen that 200
pounds of butter per year from, COW
does not pay. Those who aim to make
the most butter from their herds have
the standard up to 300 pounds peryear.
and some fix the limit higher. Every
farmer can have the Individual mem
bcrs of his herd reach that amount by
breeding for better cows every year

EXCELLENT CORN CRIB.
For Ordinary Farm Use No Model II
More Effective Than the One
Here Described.

Corn, unless properly stored, is liza
bile to great damage by rats and mice,
while that which remains may become
SO meldy even as to render it unfit
for use. A good corn crib, therefore,
is of the utmost value where this crop
is raised, and for the generality Of
localities none are better than the one
shown in. the accompanying illustra-
ton. Not only will the corn stored in
it be absolutely safe from the depre-
dations, of all rodents, but it is sure to
keep in splendid condition.
The insloping sides will prevent thu
rain from getting, at the corn, albeit
the sides are. Of open slatwork to let
the air pass through. It can be con-
