it seems from the best atlainable facts
that there should be at least two-thirds
of the pigment lead for best outside

GET READY FOR WINTER QUAR-.

The time Is not far distant when h
farmer must get his stock into winter
quarters and the weeks will pass with
srent rapidity. Every spare minute

porary buildings to repair or perman-
clt ones to build toward having quar-
tcrs ready for the stock when the Tina
comes. The growing price of lumber
makes substitutes necessary to take
it's place and much cement is being
used. Where the farmer will do this
work himself he can build floors and
walls AZ cheaply as can be done with
lumber and they Will be much more
