tions now in sight will gradually
bring a genuine revival to all trade
interests throughout the entire coun-
try. Locally the moving of the to-
bsceo crop (Which is conf IDENTIFY
looked for at an early date) will re-
vive business and start something"
to the advantage of our merchants
and farmers, speed the day. The
fact that hundreds Of wagon loads
are already being unloaded here and
will be priced bv the association,
proves the wisdom Of its manage
ment and its ability to handle the
situation to the benefit of our farmers.

Railroad Travel In Japan.

Two girls relating their experience
in Japan. in the Wide World Magazine,
give glimpse Of travelling by night by
rail in the country Of the chrysanthe-
mum. They write: 1.-The train was
crowded with Japanese. and when
night came the long seat was divided
up into portions. the upper berths were
pulled down. and We all huddled into
our respective hunks, men and women
mixed up together. II was distinctly
trying to be Obliged to hoist ones self
up into a high upper berth before q
mixed assembly. and more trying still
to descend in the morning with the
very incomplete toilet which one was
enabled to make in a reclining posi-.
ton, but the blissful ignorance of our
Japanese neighbor that there was any
thing unusual In such proceeding con.
siderably relieved our embarrassment.
His attitude and calm matter of fact.
ness were very reassuring. and the
wonderfully cheerful conductor who
brushed our clothes and fastened our
blouses seemed to consider himself
specially suited for the post Of lady's
maid"

Franks Of Fate.

Fate plays some mighty queer
pranks on the railroad" says a vet.
eran railroader. Il remember case
that happened some years ago up In
Michigan. A passenger train ran into
an open switch near Monroe and was
ditched. The coaches piled up and.
although many of the passengers were
hurt, none were killed.
when the rescuers got to what re
manned of the baggage car, a search
was started for the baggageman.
Tommy Grady. He was good man,
too, and the crew hated to lose him.
We finally found Grady wedged under
a pile of broken baggage and mer-
chandise packages. He was apparent.
ly ALI in His head had been
smashed. and his face was covered
with blood and what appeared to be
brains.
I'VE got him out and the doctor be
gan to work on him. After he had
been cleaned up 1t was found he had
got of with a broken arm and several
nasty scalp wounds. The brains that
we saw were the contents of a pail OF
oysters that had been smashed when
he dove head-foremost into It."

following plan then should be fol-
lowed:
The outside dimensions are: Length.
feet; width. 3 feet: height, 2.5 feet.
The lumber for the form must be
cut to accord with these measure
ments. At the corners of the mold
and also along the upper edges of the
uppermost pianks triangular pieces of
wood must be placed SO as to avoid
any sharp corners when the trough
Is completed. This provision prevents
the chipping of the corners, SO com.
mon to sharp angular cement work.
When the mold Is in place. the sides
should be reinforced by two or three
pieces of 2x4 inch uprights at equi-
distant intervals. These uprights
should then be strongly braced to pre-
vent bullying out of the concrete while
It is being tamped into eompactness.
A brace at each end of the form will
be also necessary. This form is
erected directly over the eobble stone
or grout foundation. When the mold
Is in position the concrete mixture
consisting of one part cement. two
parts clean sand and four parts fine
gravel is shoyeled in and tamped
down we'll in layers of at least six
inches in thickness until the mold
is half full. At this point in the
operation the inside form must be
placed for providing the water holding
space.
This inside form is also made of
lumber planned on one side and on
both edges with the smooth side out.
The part of the mold should be made
strong so as to resist inward pres
sure when the walls of the trough are
being shaped. The core mold should
have the following top dimensions:
Length. feet: width. feet: vertical
| depth, les feet or Is inches. Bottom
measurements: Length. 7 feet. width
IL inches. Thus II Is seen that the
mold has dimensions providing for a
| 6-inch interior slope from the top OF
| the trough to the bottom. These slop
ing walls are to guard against rup
ture In case water should freeze in
the holder during cold weather
This interior mold must be fixed
| carefully in such position that its
upper edges will be just six inches
| from the top edges of the outside
form. Cross pieces are nailed across
the entire width Of the form to hold
the inner form in position. The ce

A PAGE FOR THE FARMER
DETAILED PLANS FOR A
GOOD CONCRETE TROUGH
Watering Place for Livestock
by Following Instructions Given Below
III S. Chamberlain

A good watering trough Is one OF
the necessities on every farm. The
best OF wooden troughs are good
for only a comparatively few years at
the farthest and the steel troughs.
even though galvanized. will in time
rust through and become worthless.
The ideal trough is one that Is al
ways in good shape and one that does
not rot away like wood nor rust away
like steel. Such farm necessity can
be very readily constructed Of con-
crete just as many other necessities
and conveniences in the economy Of
the farm may be, says writer in the
Farmers Review. The main feature
of a concrete watering trough is its
durability, point that appeals to all
farmers.
Herewith is given plan for
making durable and satisfactory
concrete watering trough. The first
essential in building such a
water holder for the use of live stock
is a suitable foundation. An excava-
ton OF at least three feet In depth
and a little larger in area than the
dimensions of the trough is needed to
prevent heaving of the structure by
frost In the winter. This opening Is
then filled with cobble stones or grout,
pounded into place by means of a
heavy block of wood. Upon this
strong setting the concrete trough is
70 be placed.
The next step in the process is
making the mold for the trough. Only
good stout planks. free from knots
and planed on one side and on both
edges, should be used for this pur-
pose. The smooth sides of the planks
