A PRACTICAL TANK HOUSE.
The Protection Of the Drinking Water

Some farmers strive TO have .Le best

think so and put enough of the right
kind OF effort into our work. There is
a whole LOT in having a strong. healthy
determination not TO give up until our
purpose is accomplished. We frequent
ny observe farmers who are getting a
good start, and evidently making good
headway. who all at once become dis
couraged and give up and are ready
to try something else. thinking they
can do better. Those who do not con
slider life more serious than this never
accomplish any great purpose. simply
because they relinquish their hold be-
fore the hardest battle is won. 1t has

work that IL things were worth doing

laid the piping and gotten things in
readiness TO have things convenient
for supplying water 10 his farm stock

farms. all possessing good qualities and
serving the purpose admirably. We
have two different designs in use at
Forest Grove" farm. says n CORE
spondent OF the Michigan Farmer,
which serve a good purpose. The
photograph here shows a design for
tank shelter having some excellent
qualities and those who have never
used shelter and contemplate build
ing one will profit by giving this
structure careful study before building
Before settling upon any design of
tank shelter Il is very important to
fully consider the requirements Of a
building OF this nature. II must. OF
course. cover and protect the tank
during all seasons OF the year. II
must be building in which Il is pos
sibie TO maintain a temperature above
freezing in winter. Then, too. the re-
verse is equally as important during
the summer. Stock OF all kinds relish
cool drinking water during the hot
summer months. II is nearly impos-
sible TO make n shelter sufficiently
tight to keep water from freezing in
the coolest OF winter weather without
artificial heat In some form or other.
II q tank heater must be employed for
the purpose OF maintaining an even
temperature. then IL is essential in de.
signing a tank shelter that it be ar
ranged for convenient heating. The
tank must be occasionally cleaned. II
the shelter is inconvenient for accom-.
plishing this work IL will be sighted

BOTH BODIES FOUND IN BAY
Rich Retired Merchant and en- En-
gineer, Old Friends, Drown Them
selves to Win Money-No Other
Cause for Self-Destruction.

New York.-There is under investi-
cation by the Brooklyn police the re-
markable story of a suicide wager be-
tween two men whose bodies were
found in the lower bay within a few
days of each other, and who disap-
reared from their homes as If in &C
cordanee with their grim plan OF self
destruction.
The men are Henry Schwanwedel,
80 years old, a wealthy retired mer-
chant of Brooklyn, and Adam Hill
man. SO years old. a night engineer.
They had been intimat- friends for
several years, scarcely a day passing
when Schwanwedel failed TO call to
see Hillman.
The engineer lived with his wife
and one child. and during all his mar
ried life was a model father and hus-
band. He was of a quiet disposition.
Schwanwedel. who owned real estate
in Brooklyn valued at $500. 900. lived
alone with HIS sister. Regina Schwan-
wedel. and had no intimate friends ex-
cept Hillman.
Hillman left his home one night re-
Gently at the usual hour he started
FOR work. He kissed his wife and
little girl. and started down the road
whistling. He was never again seen
alive by his family, and his body was
recovered from the bay the next day.
At tne time 0f bis disappearance
Hillman had his gold watch and
chain. locket containing miniatures
Of his wife and daughter. and $40
The money and jewelry were intact in
his clothing when his body was
found.
schwanwedel disappeared three days
before, and II was on that day that
the strange bet is said 20 have been
made. After leaving his home he

slipped into the breach the nose OF the
hollow block Ats snug up against the
shoulder IN the bore OF the gun and
the whole Is held In place by a heavy
metal key.
II Is q crude. but ingenious. affair.
The charge must have been half q
pound or a pound OF powder and the
gun ought to have been good for q
high-snBle fire OF about 200 yards.
Probably the smoke and fame OF the
piece scared the Inoians worse than
the projectiies hurt them. And II that
was the case. II was a very humane
sort Of weapon
The gun was cast IN Spain In 1880
and may have been used In some of
the last nghts against the Moc-s be-
fore IL was shipped to the new world
There Is somewhat similar breech.

navy yard IN the museum at Fort Mon

make. or rather Korean, in the naval
academy at Annapolis.
The guns all work on the same nr,n.

should be mentioned that the charge
was nred by a match applied to the

probably was an awful flare back q,

packing OF some sort was used. But
II this was used. 1t was OF some perish.
