It is pointed out that when the indus

crease their stocks as a result Of an in
crease in business they will not have to
seek outside financial assistance. Not In
several years have the inventories Of the
large industrial companies been SO low.

BUILDING CORN sHAcKs.
Little Care Only Is Necessary to Make
Them Substantial

A little care in one or two points
will enable one to make shocks that
will stand and keep the corn in good
condition. The tops of four hills
pulled in and tied together form all
the framework needed if the corn Is
set up firmly and evenly as it is cut.
Just a little slant toward the center
should be given the first armfuls put
up, as the slope will increase all the
time.
The corn should be put up all
around the shocks as the work goes
on, not one side built up and then an
other Even when there is only one
man at work he can by a little care
prevent the leaning or twisting of the
shock by piling too much against one
side. When the corn is planted in
drills the stalks for tying together
should be far enough apart to make
the frame about square, and any that
may be between them should be cut
out.
After the shock is put up tying must
be attended to, says Farm and Home
Irvine should be used for this, al
though cornstalks make a fair substi
tute when two men do the work anC
do it carefully. Put the band on near
the top of the shock and draw it tight:
that is all that is necessary.

FEEDING NEW OATS.
Better Results Are Obtained When
Mixed with Old Oats.

AS a general thing, horsemen prefer
TO feed old oats rather than new. This
Is not only true of oats, but Of all
kinds Of grain as well. The reason for
this is that new oats, as rule, are not
thoroughly dry, and consequently
weigh more than the old grain, so that
II they are purchased at the same
price per bushel, the purchaser does
not receive as much for his money
When fed to horses they are some
what laxative in effect, and because of
this have more or less of a serious in
duence on working horses. They also
have tendency to cause them to
sweat freely. While this is true of
oats every season, it is especially true
this year, as the oats crop matured
very slowly, and even after the crop
was harvested, in many localities 1t
was very difficult matter to dry it
properly. Where the crop has been
threshed, the grain was frequently wet
or damp, so that in many instances it
never was dry.
Some farmers have been forced to
use their new oats, On account of not
having any old grain left over. But
where both old and new oats are had,
1t is much better to mix and feed them
together than to feed the old cats IN
til they are all fed and then feed alto
gether from the new crop.

RUTs IN THE ROAD.
How the Work of Repairing Them
Should Be Done.

With earth roads there is a pro.
nounced tendency to rut, and when
ruts begin to appear on the surface.
great care should be used in selecting
new materials with which they should
be Immediately filled, says bulletin
of the department of agriculture.
Every hole or rut in the roadway if not
tamped full of some good material like
that Of which the road is constructed
will become filled with water and will
be made deeper and wider by each
passing vehicle. A hole which could
have baen filled with a shovelful of
material will soon need a cartful. The
rut or hole to be repaired should be
cleared of dust, mud or water, and
just sufficient good fresh earth placed
in it to be even with the surround
ing surface after having been thor.
oughly consolidated with the FOUNDER.
Sod should not be placed on the sur
face, neither should the surface be
ruined by throwing upon it the worn
out material from the cutters along
side. Ruts and holes should not be
filled with stone nor gravel unless a
considerable section is to be so treat
ed, for If such material is dumped into
the holes or ruts it does not wear uni
formly with the rest of the road, but
produces Jumps and ridges and in
many cases results in making two
holes for every one repaired
Reversible road machines are often
used in drawing the material out of
bitches to the center of the roadway,
which is left there to be washed again
into the bitches by the first heavy
rain. A far more satisfactory method
when the roadway is sufficiently high
and where a heavy roller cannot be
had, is to trim the shoulders and
ridges off and smooth the surface with
the machine. This work should begin
In the center of the road, and the
loose dirt should be gradually pushed
to the bitches and finally showed off
the roadway or deposited where it
will not be washed back into the
bitches by rain.

But where was the girl? Was all their

Where is she? Which is her

And as the flames ragged with an
ever-increasing ferocity, the waiting
crowd of soldiers felt the premonition
of death in their hearts.
Suddenly a cheer broke from some
one in the burning building. They
had found her! The hoarse, smoke
choked cheer ran through the men on
the stairway, swelling louder and
louder, until the outsiders caught it
and sent it back to the rescuers-a
roar of applause for their bravery.
Ever so gently the sweaty arms on
the stairway stretched out to receive
the unconscious form, thoughtfully
wrapped in wooden blankets; carefully
yet quickly, they passed her down.
Was she burned? Where was the

And another cheer was given, a
cheer for E company. And to their
