The Next Attraction.

New Ulm is one of the few towns in
Minnesota that will be favored this
year by that much talked-of Booth
Harrington play, The Man from
Home: = play that has set over
million people Laughing in New York
City alone. It will be presented here,
at the Turner Theatre, next Sunday
evening, by an Incompatible cast
under the direction of those high-class
producers, Liebler & Co. of New
York.
1.-THE Man from Home'' has to deal
with the foolish practice of American
girls with money marrying foreign
snobs with titles. It is written IN Mr..
Harrington s happiest vein and liter
ally bubbles over with humor through
every act. The central character. a
droll lawyer who halls from Kokomo,
Indiana, is one of the cleverest con-
captions N the dramatic literature of
the day, and if he fails to please New
Ulm theatregoers it will only be be-
cause New Ulm theatregoers are
different from theatregoers anywhere
else
A crowded house should be the re-
ward of the management for bringing
to our city one of the really great
shows Of the year.

petitioned the railroad and warehouse
commission for a reduction in the
freight rates on cream when hauled
distances greater than 100 miles.
Dairymen of the state, including prac-

elimination in favor of the centra-
lizers, they claiming that, if long
hauls were permitted, the quality of
the butter would be injured and event

to secure cream at any price they
choose to pay. A similar petition was
sent to the railroad commiss toner's
last spring, but was denied by them.

The kinds Of buildings needed on the
farm, their arrangement and location
and the kind Of material to make
them of are problems that often per-
plex the farmer who Is just starting
out to improve his place. No attempt
will be made here to give any specific
plans, since the buildings must be con-
structed to meet the varying require
ments of different farms and the still
more varying ideas Of the owners. A
few suggestions, however, may help to
solve some Of the most troublesome
building problems.
Aside from the house, which will be
considered in the next article, the most
important farm building Is the barn.
This is usually built as a shelter for
the COWS, horses and young calves and
to provide a storage place for hay.
The barn should not be located near
enough to the house 80 that the odor
will be Objectionable nor too far away,
as this makes too many extra steps.
About 300 feet Is a good distance, II
the yards and manure piles are on the
side, away from the house, as they
should be.
The basement type of barn, though
in use to some extent, Is not very
popular, even on farms where it can
be easily built. The lower part is damp
and dark, and it is difficult to secure
proper drainage. These disadvantages
make 1t desirable to construct the
barn entirely above ground on a solid

sunshine. Where the building facea
the south the north row Of pens does
not receive its share Of sunlight, and
the outside yards on the north Of the
house are almost always shaded and
cold.
The floor, like that Of the barn, should
be of cement. It is a good plan to ex-
tend it out about twenty feet on each
side to make feeding floors where the
hogs can be fed and watered without
getting in the mud. BY having all pen
and yard partitions movable they can
be arranged for sows and itters or Tor
fattening swine, as needed. A reeo
room in one end Of the building Where
grain can be stored and feed mixed up
Is a great convenience.
A corncrib should be located close to
one end Of the feeding floors, so as to
save work when hogs are fattenlng.
If steers are fed another crib should be
built with one end next to string OF
feed hunks, so that the feeder can walk
right out into them with the corn when
feeding. A double crib with a bin for
oats on one side should be placed near
the barn. In the winter the driveway
may be used for grinding feed.
A good weather proof machine shed
should be built on very farm. 1t may
be located almost any place where 1t
will be out Of the way. There should
be a row of wide doors all along one
side so that 1t will be possible to take
an implement out or in without NOV
ing everything else in the shed.
All wooden buildings should be kept
well painted. Painted wood will last
three times as long as that not so
treated, to say nothing Of the gain In
looks.
A little attention to some of these
points in locating and arranging the
buildings and yards will cut the work
Of doing chores in half.

young cattle close to the silo they can
be fed from 1t with little extra work.
A silo sixteen feet in diameter and
thirty feet high is about the right size
for a 100 acre farm. The diameter
should always be small enough 80 that
two or three inches can be fed of the
top each day. This insures fresh silage
all the time. The greater number OF
silos in use at present are made OF
wooden slaves. These are cheap, and
IL a good quality of wood Is used they
will last q long time. Cement and
brick silos are practically indestructi-
BILE, but are rather expensive. A new
type Of silo that is proving very satis-
factory is made Of hollow building tile.
This material is as cheap as slaves and
lasts as long as cement.
For the young stock, fattening cattle
and sheep cheap sheds furnish ample
shelter. These can be made Of COM
mon boards well battened, with strong
cedar posts for framework. The roof
should be water tight. A twelve foot
opening on the south will answer the
purpose Of a door.
These sheds should be on high, well
drained ground and must be kept well
bedded. When this is done they are
fully as good as a more expensive
shelter. A separate lambing house
will, of course, have to be provided for
the ewes as spring approaches.
For the man who Is making spe-
cialty Of hogs the colony system" OF
hog houses is probably the best. For
the average farmer, however, the extra
amount Of work which this system in
wolves more than outweighs its advan-
tages Of cleanliness, freedom from dis
ease and keeping the hogs in smaller
punches. On most farms the central
hog house comes nearest to meeting
the requirements. Along with 1t a few
individual houses are convenient for
hauling around to the stubble and clo-
yer fields or other places where the
hogs may happen to be located.
Little pigs need great deal Of sun
light, and this, together with the la
bility Of hogs to become diseased,
makes 1t imperative that the hog house
be provided with plenty Of windows
BY running it north and south and
having a row Of pens on each side each
pen will receive an equal amount OF

MORE USE OF STEEL.
Will Replace Wood In Railroad and
Other Construction.

VIII Replace Wooo III no"ees e'S
Other Construction.
There are about 315,OOO miles Of track
owned by the public railroads, says the
Iron Trade Review. Ultimately, sub
stantially all will have to be laid with
100 pound rails, which will put into
service just 5OOOO,O0O tons Of steel
rails. At an average life Of ten years
replacement alone will call for 100000
tons a year, and while say 100000
tons Of worn rails will be taken up to
be reworked into other forms the re-
uuirements for new track Will help TO
balance this. To lay this trackage In
steel ties Of the most accepted form
now in use would require some 60,-
900 900 tons. Only one important OBJ
lection has been made to this tie, and
that Is that 1t Is too light. The obvious
remedy is to make it heavier, 80 that
we may count upon 100000 to 10O,-
900 900 tons Of steel for this purpose
The only reason the tie was made too
light If it is so, was because wooden
ties were relatively cheap and steel
relatively dear.
The cost Of wooden ties Is increasing
year by year, and IL the steel industry
needs the tonnage it will meet the pro-

fT Dick Jones Of Prague, Okla, says
the Tulsa World. has the d stinction
of catching the first white"footed fox
in this section Of the countrr. While
out hunting recently in Okfuskee
county, he jumped a red fox in the
field. He fired a shot out Of his shot
gun and Mr.. Fox went head over
heels. Jones walked over and picked
up his game, and. to his great sur
prise, found 1t to be white-footed
red fox. The animal Is very rare,
and there have probably not been
more than half a dozen killed In this
country. The white-footed fox Is as
scarce as white quail or a white squir-
rel, a specimen Of both Of which have
been killed in eastern Oklahoma this
fall. Its front feet are marked with
white. The right foot has a white
stocking to the knee, while the left
foot Is white nearly to the shoulder
The fox was shipped to Graham Burn

position half way and sell the steel
more cheaply. so that this problem will
solve itself. There are nearly 100000
wooden freight cars in existence. AL
lowing for the iron and steel in them It
will require 3O,o00,000 tons of pig iron
In addition to replace them with steel
cars. There are nearly $4,000 passen-
ger, mail, express and baggage cars,
to replace which with steel cars will
call for 100000 tons Of pig iron in
addition, and this work will be Of es-
pecial benefit to the steel industry be-
cause a considerable part Of the steel
will have to be worked UP into the light
forms of sheets, small angles. etc.
About three billion board feet Of shin
giles are consumed annually in the
United States. Ultimately this use
must be supplied by metals in which
the plate must take prominent place.
Lath take about billion board feet
a year, and will be r 7laced by sheet
steel or wire lath. More than billion
board feet go into cooperage stock,
and for much of this use wood will
have to yield to steel These bare fig
ures show the possibilities, but they
do not furnish an adequate conception
in tons Of steel. A rough idea Of the
possibilities Of steel replacing wood
may be gained by the following state
ment: The United States forest SER
vice estimates that railroad ties COM
prise only about per cent Of the total
wood used in the United States. yet our
estimate just made shows that the re-
placement Of wood by steel in this work
will mean between 100000 and l00.-
100000 tons Of steel As large build
ings are now constructed Of steel or
steel and concrete, 1t may be expect
ed that small buildings, even dwelling
houses, will ultimately fall into line.
The form Of structures will be some-
what different, small shapes being
used, with fastenings designed to be
handled by the ordinary contractor,
without rivets and perhaps without
bolts. These small sections and fasten-
ings, with metallic lath, and perhaps
with steel sash, and frames, will make
much more work for the rolling mills.
proportionate to tonnage, than the
heavy forms such as rails and large
structural shapes. Altogether It is not
difficult to see hundreds Of millions Of
tons Of steel demand for the next few
decades, and the principal governing
element will be the relative cost Of the
competing materials. As the present
rate Of drain on our forests points to
an ultimate life Of only from 10 to 25
years, and as concrete construction,
generally requiring steel, is constantly
being made cheaper, the drift is quite
clear.
