Only short time ago you'd see them going down hill helter-skelter on their double rippers, and goodness knows they've had lots of that sport this winter, and HOW you'll see tneh playing marbles, skinning thele knuckles and getting their clothes all dirty. Of course that means mamma must clean them. Well, just now the housekeeper has lots of cleaning to at tend to, house cleaning. for instance and let us say right here the man who will allow the housekeeper to do any cleaning without using our washing fluid should be given ride in the new patrol wagon, and surely some men are getting a ride in the "Black Ma riar" for much less offense. NoW' as far as cleaning is concerned the Wo- man who does the washing or house cleaning without our washing mud IS very foolish person, and if they doubt us, just buy one bottle and see Tor yourself.

NATURALIST WAS At FAULT
Man Of Learning Failed to Identify
Very Common Animal from
Description.

One Of the professors at great university
in Scotland recently wrote to an eastern
university to the following effect:
Walking in the dusk through the grounds
Of the university the other evening, my at.
tention was arrested by low murmuring
sound near me, which was neither hiss nor

on the ground, larger than cricket. Two

venture to turn it on it's back, SO as to count
the legs. On the ground lay small quantity
of snow-white substance, which had evi.

your professors identify the creature from
this imperfect description"
The naturalist connected with the eastern
university fell into the trap-baited, prob.
ably, especially for him. He wrote learn:

The antenna-like protuberances are
used for burrowing in the ground" he
wrote, "and these insects secrete a. fluid
which they have the power of ejecting to
protect themselves in case of attack.
The tutor wrote again to thank the nat
uralist for his information, and to say he
need not trouble him further, as he had for.

closely under exactly similar circumstances,
and was able now to identify it himself a.

Many farmers do not seem to appre-
ciate the difference between ventilation
and sanitation. There is little use OF
spending money for ventilating flues in
an old, filthy. plank-foor barn. Usually
in such places liquid manure has soaked
through the floors for years, while the
ceilings are open and covered with cob
webs. Such stable as this gets change
of air, but the filth is 80 great that 1t is
always offensive. Ventilation is not an
antidote for uncleanliness.
Probably nine out Of ten stables feel
quickly the effect Of strong wind or
q lowering Of temperature. Nothing ex-
cept thorough insulation or double walls
will remedy this trouble. The cement

eventually become a citizen. Astor
was thinking over the proposition. and
dad had asked him IL he was not

dered and said every. day he expected
to be blown sky high. and finally he
smelled something burning and said
the smell reminded him Of an Ameri-

and outside walls, believe 1t q safe
thing. Several years use Of henhouss
so constructed leads me to advise 1t for
q cow stable. With concrete floor and
wall there will be no trouble from rats.
About seven pounds of water are
thrown of daily from the skin and lungs
of an averaged-sized COW. Therefore.
there is large volume of water to carry
out through the flues. The secret, says
H. e. Cook, in American Agriculturist,
is to keep this moisture in the form of
vapor until it reaches the open air. Car
rying, ayemoistufe, is not the only
function Of perfect ventilation. II the
moisture is removed, carbonic acid gas
will go with it.
The principle of the King system of
ventilation Is shown In the illustrations
given herewith. Fig. exhibits the OUT
flow nues, and Fig. 2 the intakes. 1have
this system in use in my dairy Barns.
When these barns were built supposed
that no other form was practical. OBJ
servation has taught me that IL the
principles of construction from the floor
to a point above the highest ridge Of the
barn are followed, it will make little or
no difference whether the flues are
placed outside or inside, providing they
are sufficiently insulated to prevent the
cooling of the air current within them.
Wood, being a non-conductor Of
heat, is the most satisfactory material
for making fues. In constructing them
within the building, used only one
solid wall, made of two thicknesses Of
match boards with tar paper between.
The wall was perfectly tight and no side
air currents could form, interfering
with the circulation. These flues must
be Is we'll built as chimney. In fact
the whole principle works like great
box stove, with perfect draft and pipe.
The size of the flues must depend upon
the animals housed, and not upon the
air space inclos1d. find it q safe rule
to have q square foot Of area for fue
space to each five or six mature COWS.
The openings near the floor and at the
ceiling should be SO constructed as tc
be under perfect control. The tempera.
ture is raised by using the lower open.
ing, and lowered II the upper outlet ie
used. Ihave been able to maihtstn near
ly uniform temperature during the
winter in my barns.
The intake flues should not exceed six
inches in diameter, and can be con-
structed Of any material at hand. They
should be placed as shown in the illus
tration, upon each side Of the building.
Air coming into the sts11e under these
conditions is better circulated than II
coming from one side only. In my e.
perience I am unable to give 4 safe
working rule for these small fues, but
they do the business. The location Of
the barn in its relation to atmospheric
pressure has a marked effect upon the
inflow. Probably about half the area
Of the outflow fiues would be . safe
working rule, and under control. These
dues should not be less than three feet
long to isaure perfect circulation.
