Barn Keeps Steadily GROWING.

Tan Cr:wlcy. a farmer of the Coral
Hill country il, Kentucky. had a novel
experience. A few years ago he buit
small BAN, ard in its corstruc
ton used green willow posts at tho
corners and along the sides. For
some time nothing unusual was no
ticed, but after year it was observed
that where he had laid the floor near
the ground it was three feet above tho
soil. He then discovered that the
willow posts instead of being dead
were alive and had taken root and
were growing and that in their I'D.
ward movement they had raised the
barn. Last spring the barn was on
stills nine feet high, and he put in a
new floor and surrounded the posts
with siding, thereby making a two.
story affair. There is now a spacs
of twelve inches between the rev
floor and the ground. Crawley expects
to have thrae-story hara in course
of time.
