tions are clean, coarse sand or sand
and gravel mixed, and thorough mix
ing. Earthly matter or Jumps Of clay
are likely to cause soft, crumbly spots
in the concrete and insufficient mixing
Will result in the same defects.
In foundation walls, walks, floors,
etc, | used a mixture of one part
portland cement to seven OF gravel,
and for tanks a mixture of one to five.
When crushed rock and sand are
used, mix in the same proportion,
using one-half as much sand as rock.
In mixing use long box. an old wag-
on box will do, and fill with three
fourths of yard of gravel, leaving a
space at one end. On top of the grav.

land cement. Begin at one end and
hoe down and mix until the whole

When putting in a water system on
the farm. It is advisable to build a
storage tank In addition to the drink
ing tanks. Where considerable live
stock is kept, large amount
Of water is required, and as there is
frequently a week or more at a time
when the windmill will not run, a
scarcity OF water will result unless
provision has been made for a reserve
supply.
A very handy arrangement for
drawing water from the storage tank
IS made by placing an inch pipe about
2la feet long through the forms high
enough above the ground to permit a
pail or tub to be placed under the out
'er end The inner end should be an
inch higher than the outer and project
into the tank about IS inches.

MAKING OF CONCRETE TANKS
Not Difficult Matter for Farmer to

Little Experimenting.

Concrete is rapidly taking the place
Of lumber for many uses upon the
farm. While its first cost, in some in.
stances, is higher, It is not only cheap
er but very satisfactory when dura.
bility is considered. II is not at all
a difficult matter for any farmer, after
a little experimenting, to do his own
concrete work and thus save a consid-
erable part Of the cost Of construc-
tion. The price usually charged In this
locality for making a circular tank 10
feet in diameter is $40 | have been

short brown hairs in addition to the
long ones, ..'Ht -sI. ..r-tg1.
The full.grown larva changes to a
pupa within cocoon which II pre-
viously makes with silk and leaves.
These cocoons may be in groups or
singly in some secluded spots or at
the tips of branches of trees on
which they have fed. The cocoon is
so loosely made that the pupa may be
seen through II.
The moths Of both sexes are pure
white with the exception of the abdo-
men, which is dark brown. The tip
of the abdomen of both sexes. more
pronounced in the female, bears a
small tuft OF brown hairs, from which
the insect gets its name. The female
moth has an expanse of about one and
one.half inches while the male is
somewhat smaller. The moths are
strong fliers and are readily attracted
to lights.
In addition to the severe injury that
this pest will do TO fruit, shade and
forest trees, and the consequent cost
of fighting II, there Is another feature
connected with its presence that is
very troublesome, II not alarming,
that is, danger to the health of
people.
The larva or caterpillar bears tiny
hairs which are barbed and when the
insect molts these hairs are shed
with the skin. Upon drying, these
skins and hairs float about in the air
and are source of constant trouble
to persons living in an infested dis
trict. When the caterpillars' skins, or
even loose hairs come in contact with
the skin they cause a severe irrita-
ton. A large part of the popular
feeling in New England that the
brown-tail moth must be exterminated
is due quite as much to the preva-
lence and annoyance of this rash as
to the loss OF vegetation from the
work of the caterpillar.
With this pest undoubtedly the
easiest and practically the only effec-
tive means of artificial control where
established is by cutting of the over
wintering nests during the late fall,
winter or early spring and destroying
the tiny larvae within, This, of course,
can be supplemented by spraying with
an arsenical mixture, when the larvae
appear on the foliage In spring.

HARMFUL BR0WN-TAIL MOTH
In Addition TO Injury II Does to the
Trees II Carries Disease
Germs.

There is but one generation Of the
brown-tail moth annually In New
England. The insect winters as a
tiny larva or caterpillar within a
web or nest made of silk and leaves
woven together tightly. The nests
will vary in size usually from three
to four inches in length and will con
tain 200 or more caterpillars.
These nests are securely attached
to the tips of trees or plants on which
the caterpillars we're working before

In early spring, as soon as the buds
of fruit and shade trees appear, ac-
cording to Howard, these one-fourth
grown caterpillars emerge from their

mence feeding upon the buds and
blossoms and later the foliage. The
young caterpillar is Of blackish
color and covered with very small
hairs. The full-grown larva is about
two inches long, reddish brown In
color, with a broken white stripe on
each side and two red dots in the
back near the hind end. The body
is covered with numerous tubercles
bearing long barbed hairs. The tuber.
cles along the back and sides of the
abdomen are thickly covered with

ABOUT THE HORSES HOOP
Really the Same as the Toe or Finger

Grows Without Cracks.

A horses hoof is really the same
thing as the toe or finger nails OF
human beings, or of animals having
toes. The hoof grows Just as a toe
nail does, and more rapidly on un-
shod horses than on horses wearing
shoes. It's growth is much faster on
horses that are we'll groomed and
well fed. upon an average of a third
OF an inch a month. The hind hoofs
grow faster than the fore hoofs. The
toe of the hoof being the longest part,

there than at the heel. The new
hoof grows without any cracks or de.
fects In the whole. gradually working
