A Vanished Phase of New Year,

II was very, very sad this last New
Years eve," said the impecunious man
"New Years eve is not for the poor
any more. It's for the rich now. 1t
used to be that you could take dol
lar and break into nearly every cafe
in town, buy a 10-cent drink at each
and paint the town, but not any more
Now you must engage a seat at a ia
BILE five weeks in advance and pay
all the way from SO to $40 for the priv
ilege of sitting in it, whether they
give you a bite to eat or a drop to
drink or not while you are there.
Some of them do, 1 understand, but a
lot of them don't. No. The day of
the poor mans New Years eve of wild
hilarity in New York is over and
gone"

wire or rods are used the ends should
be bent over to prevent slipping
Twisted or barbed wire may be used
the former being the most easily han
died. Galvanized wire is not neces
sary as it is protected by the cement
from rusting. A reinforcing member
in each corner of the post is probably
the most efficient arrangement. These
will give the desired strength.
In using a mold similar 10 those il
Illustrated, it is necessary to provide {
perfectly smooth and even platform
of size depending upon the number
Of posts to be nodded. A cement
floor, if accessible, may be used to ad
vantage. The molds when in place
are given thin coating of soft soap
the platform or cement floor serving
as bottom of mold, being treated il
same way. About one and one-hal
inches OF concrete are spread evenly
over the bottom and carefully tamped
SO as to reduce to a thickness Of
about one inch. A piece of board GU
as in illustration will be found usefu
in leveling off the concrete to a de
sired thickness before tamDing. Or
top Of this layer two reinforcing
members are placed, about one incl
from the sides of the mold. Tht
molds are then filled and tamped il
thin layers to the level of the othel

members are adjusted as were the
first two and the remaining one incl

molding is concerned. To avoid SHARP
edges, which are easily Clipped
triangle strips may be placed at the
bottom Of the mold along the sides
and when the molds have been filled
and tamped, similar strips may be in
serted at the top. The top edges may
be beveled with trowel or by run
ming an edging tool having triangu
lar projection on it's bottom along the
edges.
The ends and sides of the mold may
be removed after tWenty-four hours
but the posts should not be handled
for at least one week, during which
time they must be sprinkled severa
times daily and protected from the
sun and wind. The intermediate
strips may be carefully withdrawn a.
the end Of two or three days, but il
is better to leave them in place unit
the posts are removed. Although {
post may be hard and apparently
strong when one week old, it will mo-
attain its full strength in that time
and must be handled with the utmos
care to prevent injury. Carelessnes:
in handling green posts frequently re
suits in the formation of fine cracks
which, though unnoticed at the time
give evidence of their presence later
in the failure of the post.
Posts should be allowed to cure a
least six days before being placed il
the ground, and for this purpose it is

Feeding Cattle a Science.-Growing

Feeding Cattle a Science.-Growing
proper feed for cattle is as necessary
as growing the cattle that are to be
fed. The finishing of cattle for mar
ket has been almost reduced to a sci
ence and the feeders who are success
full are painstaking and make a close
study of everything pertaining to the
business. When practical farmer buys
a. machine he selects one that has
proven the most reliable for his pur-
pose and that will do the most work
in the shortest time. The same rigid
selection should be made when we are
selecting feeders for the purpose of
manufacturing our products into beef.
The improved animal that has inherited
fixed characteristics is the best machine
for converting farm crops into beef.
The mixed or poorly bred animal is
like a machine of less capacity and in
ferior quality of production. When a
farmer draws a load of grain to the
elevator he exacts the last quarter from
the buyer. He should conduct his feed
Ing on the same business principles.

the molding platform they be placed
upon a smooth bed of moist sand and
protected from the sun until thorough,
ly cured During this period they
should receive a thorough drenching
at least once a day.
The life of the molds will depend
upon the care with which they are
handled. A coating of mineral oil or
shellac may be used instead of soap
to prevent the cement from sticking
to the forms. AS soon as the moIds
are removed they should be cleansed
with a wire brush before being used
again.
The cost of reinforced concrete
fence posts, Of course, depends upon
the cost of labor and materials, and
must necessarily vary in different To-
calities.
