A SUGGESTION for Farmer Boys.

The opportunities for young men Of
training and experience in agriculture
grow better each year ) arcely a
week passes that we do not have calls
Tor one or more young men who have
grown up on the farm and have had
some training in a college of agricul-
ture, to take positions of trust and
profit. The whole system Of agricul-
ture in this country Is being reVOlu-
-ioniZe1, and the men who understand
he fundamental principles upon which
he new agriculture is based are in con-
slant demand
A young man should reflect well be-
fore deciding to throw away all the
valuable experience he has accumulate
I'd during his life on the farm and en-
Ter some profession where his expert
ance will not be of special value to
aim. AS valuable, however as this
experience is. no man should attempt
10 rely upon it alone in his farming
operations. He should add to this eX-
pcrience at the very least short
course in agriculture.-H. J. Waters, in

A Ventilation Plan.

| All farmers realize, or should realize
1t least, that good ventilation in the
stock barns is as important as in
5he dwelling house. The animals need
sIesh, pure air as badly as human be-
ngs do and will suffer as quickly from
| he want of it. Therefore. the careful
and up-to-date farmer will give no lit

| Jarn ventilation. A writer in the Farm
Stock Journal suggests the following
simple plan of ventilating the farm
buildings. 1t is practical and should

In the rear of the NOISE near one

Joining at the edges four boards eight
inches wide. Set this into the ground
or fasten to the floor if of the boards

wall of the building and about a foot
Up from the floor cut out a piece SO as

hole corresponding in size Cover these
holes as well as the hole in the top of
he shaft with wire netting. so that

This is the shaft by which the air en-
ers the building Then build another
shaft long enough to reach from about
eight inches to foot from the floor up
through the roof so that it will come
out through the roof foot or fifteen
inches. The top OF this shaft must be
capped so that the opening will be pro-
tected from rain. The lower end is to
