THE NATIONS NEWSPAPERS
There Were 22,312 Publications Of All Classes Issued Last
 Year.

The growth in newspaper publishing in the United States has been one of the wonders of free and untram- .meled press. According to the latest authoritative information there were 22,312 publications of all classes issued in the United States last year, or one for about every 3,00O population. This includes weekly, monthly and quarter ly periodicals as we'll as daily news papers. Of the latter there were 2,377 while of weekly publications the number was 16,152 and of monthlies 2.550. The gain for the year Vas 30 dailies. 34 weeklies and, one monthly. The total gain in number of publica-l tions was 89, or four -tenths of one per cent.
 In New York and the middle stateg there were 67 fewer publications than in the preceding year; in the southern! states 49 more, and in the western states a gain of 79. The loss in the older sections was pretty evenly dis tributed between the various classes of publications, as was the gain in tho south and west. Many thousand years ago the wise man wrote "of making many books there is no end" Tn this
 latter day. he would have included
 newspapers and magazines.

BUILDING IDEAL DAIRY BARN
Indiana Farmer Tells of His New Combination Dairy Barn
 Believes It Best.

My new combination dairy barn is designed along lines calculated to make it an ideal structure of it's kind. It is 50x70 feet with corner posts 22 feet high. I had an old barn with 12 feet corner posts, but times have changed. What used to be considered high barn Is now too low. says c. P. Newsom, of Marion county, Ind, in the Orange Judd Farmer
 We ran 12-foot drive about 19 feet from the north end of the barn. Cow stalls are placed south of this drive. as indicated by the drawing on page l70. The stalls are 12x3h feet each, with a concrete gutter 6x16 feet run ming just behind the COWS about feet from the cement feed troughs at one

THE.QUEEN's DISCOVERY Q
TT is a little marked" muttered Count Arnim
By W. H. KoEBEL

T is a little marked" muttered
 Count Arnim.
 Arnim bowed stiff1y as lady in full court mourning smiled brilliantly toward him in passing If Otto VI. had failed as a monarch he was worthy Of respect as a man. The dawn of 8 bitter smile rose upon Arnim's lips, for he had loved the dead man.
 In the meantime the tone was set by the young duke of Hexel Sur round by small group of brother Of ficers he had taken up his position close by. The men about him were all young. From the group came an audible litter now and then that drew the eyes of the two officers who stood sword in hand on guard by the bier
 He had retribution in his power, for he was also cuirassier of the guard, and as major the senior of the rest But it was poor homage to the dead the wigging of subordinate. And as for Hexel, he could not touch him.
 Gathering up his sword, he made toward the door. Suddenly he halted, pricking up his ears. From behind him came the sounds of a rustic of smothered exclamations. He turned sharply upon his heel
 Kneeling at the foot of the bier. her head bent down to the masses of white flowers. was the figure of woman. The face was heavily yelled, but the form was slim and graceful

The unknown had glided to Arnim'a side. The action decided him.
 Make way, sir!" he called sternly From without came rolling chatter oi aoofs.
 Hexel's face grew lived. '"The gentle Count Arnim is pleased to be gallant. Is it that he sees ths means of obtaining thus cheaply that which I-".
 "Ah!" cried the lady. "Stop!"
 A chasseur, with features aghast, was at the side of the group. Off swung his green-plumed hat. Hexel still had his 1 back to the entrance. You shall pay for this, Arnim!" He broke off. Arnim had sprung to attention. His comrades, white-faced, were at the salute. The sound of nasty footfall broke the sudden silence. Hexel turned. Then he, too, grew rigid. At his el- bow stood the king.
 From without sounded the clash of accoutrements, the trampling of horses hoofs and feet and the impatient hum of the multitude. But within all was as still as death.
 The kings eye roved from one figure of the group to the other. It was an eye that carried a flash within it---there would be no want of firm hand here. As it rested upon the figure of the lady the king controlled himself with a vis- ible effeort. He bowed low.
 "Those-who followed-tell me that 1t is your majesty?'
 Ere he had finished the lady had flung aside her veil Deadly pale, the features were those of the queen. The gaze of her consort softened, for he adored her.
 Tt was a whim. had wished to see for myself"
 Her voice trembled. She paused. The kings eye famed again as it searched the white faces before him. Arnim gazed stonily to where the two aids-de-camp stood farther back in the doorway.
 'Ah!" said the king, "and the experi- ment-"
 The queen would have drawn Arnim gently forward. but sinking on his knee ae kissed the hand she had extended.
 "I have found one, your majesty, who nas served me as queen and--as a woman." 
 The king nodded briefly. Then the storm cloud was upon his countenance again. He pointed to the straining fig ares of the rest of the group.
 And these?"
 For a moment her eyes swept over the white faces.
 And these-?" the growl had risen.
 The queens gaze lighting upon each once more rested upon Hexel. She was | woman-satisfied.
 Would doubtless have behaved as nobly. your majesty. had they been in Count Arnim's place."
 Her eye met the kings with meaning. He beckoned to Arnim, who followed in company with the aids-de-camp as the royal pair swept out.
 There was surge of voices and the clash of arms from without, answered by the rattle of single sword upon the floor of the Cafe Prenne. The young Duke Hexel had tainted.

PLAN OF DAIRY BARN.

end of the row of stalls and AZ feet at the other. Our feed troughs for cows are so low the animals can lay down with their heads over the troughs and will not be tempted to lay east side of the barn, parallel with the rows of COW stalls. They are 14x41a feet, facing west. There is a 5-foot feeding alley running between them and the COW stalls. A hay chute is located at the south end of this al- ley and stover chute at the north, the same as in the COW feeding alley.
 All grain must be carried across the 12-foot drive. Hay is thrown down through ! chute at the south end of the feeding alley and corn stover at the north end.
 A silo 15x24 feet is placed so that we can throw silage from it to car that is pushed down the alley, feeding silage as we go. Another silo 10x24 feet may also be built by the side of this one. These silos are south of the barn, so as to be protected from the cold north winds.
 The separator room, Sx.0 feet, is sit- uated in the northeast corner of the barn. Our location of the separator room removes 1t as far as possible from objectionable odors, and yet still has it in the barn. A well is dug be- tween the separator room sand the drive, and a trough for watering horses placed near. A concrete trough with g concrete floor several feet around it makes 1t easy to keep the grounds clean.
 Water for cooling and washing pur- poses can be run into the separator room from the well. In very severe weather when stock should not be out of doors, cows may be watered there also, although another source of water supply will be provided for them for nice weather

MOTHERS DouoHNUTs.
If you think there's no use trying To do anything of worth;

If you think there's no use trying To do anything of worth; If you think you're but a cipher
 In the multitudes of earth; Just remember Mothers doughnuts And press onward to the goal Finest doughnuts in creation.
 They were made around hole. If the patch is on your garment
 Where 1t never was before; If your pocketbook is empty
 Of it's hoarded little store; Just remember Mothers doughnuts When the clouds of trouble roll-- Sweetest doughnuts manufactured, All were built around mole. If you think your next-door neighbor Had a better start than you; If perhaps you made failure
 And success is hard to woo; Set your teeth the way you used to, Lay the comfort to your soul Recollect the grand perfection
 That was circled round a hole. -McLandburgh Wilson, in Puck.

 A knot of indignant humanity sur- rounded Arnim.
 "A scene like that. Here in the very chapel. My dear count, how did she get in?"
 Effect; it was done for effect, my friend. Tempting. surroundings and the dramatic instinct, you know"
 Without the chapel he saw the slim figure threading its way through the waiting masses of people. He knew not what it was that impelled him to follow her.
 AS he drew toward the outskirts of the crowd the young duke of Hexel passed him with hurried steps. With out the radius of the crowd the street was comparatively quiet. In a mo- ment the younger man had overtaken the yelled woman. To Arnim's aston ishment they turned together after word or two down the broad avenue that ran at right angles with the pal ace.
 They were right then. It was a light wench, theatrically disposed, after all" muttered Arnim.
 He watched the two as they halted before the subdued grandeur of the Cafe Prenne. The woman wavered; a gesture of her cavalier decided her. They entered in company. But the movement of hesitation had not escaped Count Arnim. For moment he remained pondering with knitted brow. Then he hastened forward. Hardly had the doors swung 10 behind the pair ere he was mounting the broad staircase.
 Within an alcove all but secluded from the large hall by heavy pair of curtains stood the woman. In semicir- cle above her the officers that had formed the group at the Chapelle Ardente stood at the salute. Midway between Duke Hexel. bent in exaggerated hom- age. extended hand to left and right in mute introduction. The figure of the lady was very erect.
