pipe leading TO the stock trough on
the outside. Then for convenience In
occasionally enptying and scrubbing
the tank, it must have a drain pipe
near one end. and the cement floor of
the whole Don should gradually slope
toward this point, where ii must have
connection with a tile drain, the
trough pipe opening into the mouth
Of the larger floor drain.
The position of the tile drain must
depend somewhat on the lay of the
land, but pipes from the pump trough,
from the milk room floor, and from
the cistern overflow into which the
cistern pump trough is also drained,
may be conveniently brought together
into a single drain, at no great dis
lance from their starting points.
From the pump a heavy tin conduc-
tor with an elbow at each end, the
one turning downward inside the up
turned steel elbow mentioned above,
the other turning upward and falling
just under the pump spout when in
use, carries the water to the tank.
When not in use, it is swung around
against the wall, where it lodges in a
hooked support and is out of the way.
All the water for cattle and horses Is
pumped through this tank and serves
to keep the milk and butter cool dur
ing the summer. A cupboard in this
room is also the summer receptacle
for all quickly %perishable cooked
things.
Few of these double-walled rooms
built entirely above the ground are
absolutely f~rost-proof in the severest
weather. They could doubtless be
made SO by sparing nc expense in
making thicker walls, but with few
exceptions the rooms as described are
sufficiently warm. When, however,
there is reason to fear the cold, a
thermometer is placed in the room
and If it is likely to become too cold
a fire Is built in the wash room
and the connecting doors kept open
until the temperature has been raised
10 a safe degree, when they are again
closed. This is necessary only when
the cold is very severe or long pro-
tracted.

MOTOR CARS MADE IN INDIA.
Factory at Bangalore Turns Out Cars
Made Entirely by Native
Labor.

Hindu philosophical genius has long
been famous; Hindu mechanical genius
Is now developing. A company Is
about to be foated for the purpose of
introducing a service OF motor omni-
buses in the neighborhood of Poona,
India. India is also in a fair way of
placing itself beyond any position Of
dependence on cars made by foreign
industry, since motor cars are now be-
ing successfully produced by native In
dian labor. The seat of this Indian
industry Is situated at Bangalore and
employs some $50 hands, who have
been engaged in turning out cycles,
and, latterly, motor cars. A signal
demonstration of the company's abili-
lies In this direction has been recently
afforded or the occasion OF the visit
of the prince Of Wales t. Mysore.
where a motor car, constructed entire
ly by native Indian labor, was placed
at the disposal of his royal highness.
The car in question Is described as
three seated and of six and a half
horse power, with water cooled en-
CINE. The finish throughout is equal
to the higher grade cars imported into
the country. while the cost is about
$3.50 less. Its speed has been regis
tered at 80 miles an hour. The same
company is also stated to have insti-
tuted a record in native bicycle on
struction, turning out on one occasion
three fully plated machines with spe-
cial requirements in Sc hours.

DAIRY WISDOM.

Never allow the milk to sour in the
swill barrel.
no not let the cows dry up on ac-
count of short pasture.
We have all the trouble with COWS
whether they pay a profit or not.
Never allow a little milk to remain
in the barrel from day to day until it
is rank with putrefaction.
The fresh, full June pasture will not
last into July and August, so be sure
and be ready when the pinch comes
The noon feeding should be warmed
to the same degree. The milk should
not be held over, but fed the same day.
Calves should have the milk warm
from the separator, and the pigs should
have their share sweet and in the same
way.
See that the water supply Is pure
and abundant. With a shortage in
the water supply there will be disap-
pointment in the results of the dairy.
Don't forget this!
II any COWS that are large mixers
are about TO calve, keep them in from
the pasture and feed hay for a time,
so that the udders will not become too
much observation-disclosures Journal.
When cows are sailed only once a
week, tn ,y eat too much at a time, and
it causes looseness Of the bowels. They
will eat "A little salt nearly every day

o CARS c o
Data Showing What Was Accom-.
plished by a Lengthy Run
on Rails.

Early this year George IT. Webb.
chief engineer OF the Michigan Central
railroad, made an inspection trip over
his system with a gasolene car made
especially for railroad work. The
data showing what was accomplished
with this car is interesting, says tho

The total distance travelled was

gasoline used was 231 gallons, or an
average Of 1871 miles per gallon Of gas.
oline. The records show that on the
run from Jackson to Allegan, a dis.
lance Of 175 miles, round trip, only
1l2 gallons of gasoline were used, or
23.3 miles per gallon. The total cost
per mile, including lubricating oil, bat.
terry cells and everything excepting
wages of man in charge, was nine
tenths OF a cent. Most any railroad
man can figure out that this Is quite
a saving as compared with a steam
locomotive pulling a private car.
This gasoline car has It's advantages
also because Of its ability to attain a
high rate OF speed and maintain 1t on
a long run. The trip from Marshall TO
Allegan. 6G.4 miles, was made in one
hour and 40 minutes, or at the rate
of 40 miles an hour. The distance
from Tekonsha to Harris. 29 miles.
was made in As minutes, and the best
run Of the entire trip was made from
South Haven to Kalamazoo, a distance
of 1916 miles in As minutes. or at the
rate OF 52.9i miles per hour. ,

Like many others, We live in a Sec

room, connecting with the main house
by means of a porch which affords a
sheltered passageway from one to the
other as well as covering in the well.
AS a further convenience the entire
porch is screened to keep out flies.
Double walls are used only for the
cold room and milk room. These were
made by using siX-inch studding

The Teachers Religion.

1t was said of a good Christian min
lister that wherever he went he made
people fall in love with the Lord Jesus
Christ. Evidently he had the right
sort of religion. 1t would be we'll if all
Sunday-school teachers had the same
kind. There are some people, Chris
tians too, godly and conscientious, who
live honestly and uprightly, and who
are active in good works, but who do
not make people fall in love with
Christ. 1t was said of a very earnest
church worker the other day, Il sup
pose he is a Christian, but somehow he
never makes me think of Christ" Yet
are there not 200 many such church
members? The teacher ought 10 have
a religion that will make other people
think of Christ. 1t should be a sunny
religion. Christ was the light of the
world. 1t should be a joyous religion,
for Christ was always joyous. 1t
should he Il religion of love. for Christ
was all love.

How the New Rate Law Will
Regulate the Railroads

Washington, d. C.-The Rate bill, if
sustained by the United States Su-
preme Court, will make Governmental
control of the railroads reasonably eff
fective. The measure is not nearly so
drastic as Senators Tillman and La
Toilette sought to make it. 1t is con.
sidered a good conservative step in the
direction of compelling transportation
companies TO desist from discrimina-
ton.
The bill empowers the Interstate
Commerce Commission, comprising five
members as at present, to fix a maxi.
mum rate whenever it is alleged that a
charge made by a railroad company is
unjust OF unreasonable. The commits.
sion may enforce it's orders through the
courts.
These rates, so fixed, may be re.
viewed to fullest extent by courts.
Before rate can be suspended inter.
lOcutory decree notice of five days and
hearing before three judges are neces-
sary.
Rate fixed and passed upon goes into
effect within thirty days and may re-
main in force for two years.
Commission may fix joint through
rates and part rail and part water
rates.
Railroads and carriers are prohibited
from dealing in commodities they
carry.
Pipe lines, private car lines, expire
companies and palace car companies
are made common carriers.
Rebates are punished by imprison-
ment to either party or fines Of from
$1,000 to $4,000.
A person soliciting or compelling a
rebate may also be fined three times
the amount of rebate.
Railroads must keep uniform set of
books, accessible to commission at all
times.
Railroads must also make uniform
reports.
Giving of interstate passes except in
stated cases prohibited.
Commissions may compel switch and
siding connections.
After rate commission made is sus.
pended or injunction made permanent
appeal shall lie direct to the Supreme
Court.
Damage done to goods SEM over a
joint through route shall be borne by
the initial carrier.

90 What Shall Do 90

That Is the problem which frequently
confronts eVeryone-especially parents
with small children. A slight illness
treated at once often saves a long
period of sickness and expense-some-
times prevents death. The trouble is
that so few people can think on the in
slant what treatment to apply, even if
they have the knowledge necessary to
recognize the disease and know what
simple remedies are best. To meet l. is
want at small expense the Book Pub
fishing House, 1874 Leonard street, New
York City, is sending postpaid a doctor
book on receipt of sixty cents In
stamps. The book is Illustrated, con-
tains 59S pages, explains symptoms,
causes and simple means of overcoming
ordinary Illnesses. 1t was written by
the eminent ]. Hamilton Ayres, A. NJ,
NJ. D. 1t is a volume which should be
in every household, as no one can tell
what moment he may require the
knowledge it contains.
