The man or woman who wishes to pre-

else. It matters comparatively little
what form it takes, SO that it is rational
and is pursued steadily. One more
qualification it must possess. 1t should
be taken, as much as possible, out of
doors, or at least in the fresh air. This
is one of the drawbacks to such games
as ping-pong, excellent as they are in
other respects. They are played in
doors, and usually in closed room.
Half as much time spent in the fresh
air would be of twice as much value.
Because of the growing appreciation
of fresh air exercise among physicians
and students of hygiene everywhere

Form for Building Round Concrete

Form for Building Round concrete
SiIo.
A, inch boards making form; B, half
inch bolts; c. concrete wall; d. bolt with
four nuts; E, band iron In wide and
three eighth inch thick
and each circle is divided into four
sections (see plan). The sections
consist of six-inch boards two feet and
a half long, bolted with small bolts
on two bands of SKI inch iron; the
top band is within four inches of top
of the boards and the other two four
inches from bottom. The ends of the
band iron should turn out where they
join each other in order that they may
be bolted together. The bolts should
have a continuous thread cut on them
and four nuts on each, two between
the band iron and one on each end of
the bolts. These nuts are to tighten
or loosen the form when desired.
There must also be half inch bolts
put through the wall, three in the
bottom and three in the top OF each
section and through the band iron.
When the form is raised these bolts
AOOoSAASO
by stacking the nuts on the bolts
where the sections join.
At the joints where the sections
meet there must be one-eighth inch
plate of iron twelve inches wide
screwed on to the form, letting the
other side lap under the form; this
holds the concrete to it's place and al
lows the form to loosen or tighten as
desired. s.
To raise the form, stand four up
rights on the inside Of the silo where
the sections meet, and about six or
seven feet above the wall nail on a
plank. allowing the plank to project
over the wall; fasten a small pair OF
blocks to the ends of these planks.
There must be four Of these planks
so as to raise the form up on all
sides alike. Take short whiff1etree
and fasten the hooks to both the out
er and inner form and the lower block
to this whif1letree. A man at each
rope will raise the form easily; then
tighten up the bolts again. If care be
taken any one can build silo as true
and smooth as crock.
There are about fifty feet Of unset
tied ensilage or forty feet Of well set
tied ensii&ge IN a ton, therefore it
would require silo ten feet in diane
ter and thirty feet high to supply your
cattle feeding them thirty-fiye pounds
per day for the housing season.

Everyone recognizes the power of dict
in preserving health. Diet is much, but
it is not all. 1t must be supplemented
by a variety Of other things. Among
the most important of these is regulari-
ty of habits.
I once heard a man who made much Of
himself physically, after starting with
very poor natural equipment, say that
he attributed great deal of his sound
condition to be fixed periods at which
he took food. Il find it better" he said
''to break my fast at dinner time, by
sandwich, when | cannot have full meal,
than to wait for an hour or two for my
regular dinner. The stomach is crea-
ture Of habit and if you take liberties
with it you are bound to make it I'M
comfortable sooner or later.
Another man of similar experience
later, in my hearing, that there was
nothing worse for one than irregular
exercise, "These women who start out
and walk seven miles in one afternoon
and then take no more vigorous eXer-
else FIR week, do themselves more
harm than god" he declared. "The

which leaves no track or trail. l have
set traps and shut cat in with the

how to get rid Of the depredator.

Ans.-It Is probable that the enemy
is weasel, a blood sucking animal
that can travel through a very small
opening and is very difficult to entrap.
In addition to the precautionary
measures which have been adopted it
would be well to tack very fine mesh
wire poultry netting over all holes
which would admit even a large
mouse.
