HOTEL ONCE A CATHEDRAL.
Remarkable Building an Attraction at
Tucson, Arizona.

The leading hotel in Tucson, Ariz.,
is an abandoned Catholic cathedral.
It was built in 1853 by the Augustine
monks of Mexico, who for more than
forty years acted as missionaries
among the NIoki and warlike Apache
Indians. When village had grown
up about the monastery the monks
gave the building over to the faithful
and it became cathedral. To further
carry on the missionary work the
monks built a large mission house
two miles from the cathedral in the
foothills, the ruins of which only re-
main. 1t was burned by the Indians
In 1929.
The old monastery building was
used as Catholic cathedral for over
100 years, when it was abandoned six
years ago for modern brick struc-
ture, and sold. The buyer at once
began putting it in shape for a hotel,
Transforming the large chambers into
f1fty-eight smaller ones, and soon
opened to the public a hotel which
will compare favorably with the best
OF eastern hostelries.
The dining room occupies that part
Of the building containing the altar,
which was left intact, me ly being
hid from observation by a screen and
sideboard. Above the altar, construct
ed in the ceiling, is large, costly old
oil painting by a famous Spanish
artist
Thousands of people stop at Tue
son to see this unique hotel and many
couples are married here simply for
the distinction OF being welded in the
oldest building in the territory.

OPEN RANGE FOR HOGS.
Vital Importance to Pork Rais-
srs Everywhere.

The value OF corn for pork pro-
duction was long since recognized;
but changes In economic condi-
tons have increased the price Of
corn during the past few years
and made 1t necessary for the farmer to
consider what grain crops he can grow
or feed as a substitute for portion OF
the corn so as to cheaper the cost OF
production and at the same time i'm
prove the quality Of the pork, writes
John r. Fain, of the Tennessee Expert
ment station. The cheapness of corn In
the past has in one sense been detri-
ment to the progress of swine hus-
bandry; II has encouraged too gen.
eral use of this cereal for the develop
ment Of the choicest quality OF hams and
bacon or for the good Of breeding AMI
mails. When corn was very cheap, 1t was
a common practice to shut the hogs up
In filthy pen and feed them an unlim-
tied quantity without regard to cost.
This made fat hogs of what is general
ly known as the lard type" Close con-
finement and heavy feeding impaired
the stamina and vigor Of the animals and
undoubtedly resulted in undermining
the constitution of the brood sow, and
this. with the unsanitary quarters.
caused the destruction of large numbers
Of hogs by the dreaded cholera.
Hog breeders now realize that an open
range with grass and forage crops Is q
desideratum of the greatest importance
to them. Under such conditions SUI
perior quality Of pork is obtained with o
better admixture of fat and lean. AS can
be easily understood from these facts
and many others which might be ad-
duced, conditions with regard to swine
feeding have materially changed. Hence
1t becomes necessary to determine what
grains may be substituted to advantage
for a part of the corn formerly fed and
to utilize fully such by-products OF the
farm as slops and skim milk, which
were frequently allowed to go to waste,
and which are now known to have high
feeding value.

small so as to choke. The opening at the
bottom on the face side is made the
shape of an inverted v, running to the
back of the opening. They build two
OF these side by side, only having par
tition between them; then draw one
while the other is burning, and that
keeps the men employed all the time.
One single arch costs about $175, OF a
double one $500. There is wood laid In
the throat sufficient to start the fire;
then put in layer of coal and then of
limestone, continuing until 1t gets to the
top of the opening. This is worked in
this way when 1t Is done for general
business, but If it Is only for farmer
who owns his own stone and wants lime
for his own use he can do II much
cheaper and without building the kiln
by laying upon the ground floor OF
logs and timber, enough to make good
bed; then lay on the wood and stone the
same as in the kiln and build 1t up as a
hay stack but flatter at the top, as you
get In more stone in that way, or 1t can
be built long and not round as wished.
This is the way for home use; 5000 to
10000 bushels can be burnt in heap of
this kind. People use coal (buckwheaO
here for the purpose. but suppose the
same can be accomplished in using wood
and will be cheaper If wood is handy.
The cut shows the mode OF building.
The kiln built as describe will furnish
its own draft and regulate itself. 1t
takes about two or three days and nights
to burn it and needs little attention IL
burned in heap. 1t is saving of the
stone, or burns up more of the stone by
covering the entire heap with clay OF
soil of some kind except the extreme top.
