Wherever you go in Colorado or any

will find the word ''locoed" applied both
to animals and to men, to indicate that
something is wrong with the subject men

Perhaps you start from livery with a fine

The tendency to-day is bad enough in that direc-

altogether too much 1t is to be forgotten
that the less marriage is respected and revered the less

lows therefore that there Is quite an

three styles of houses. The first 10

The second shows the same houses

shows the useless air space above the
dotted line Of a single slope roof, an
well as the wasted lumber In front.
Estimating the distance from dotted
line to roof to be three feet, then In
a coop 100 feet long there would be
800 feet of lumber wasted. This is the
type of henhouse commonly found on
farms, with q front nine or ten feet
high, making such a large air space
inside that the hens can never warm

of lumber.

So last fall I changed them to per-
