Holbert, is now at the Mansfield
Stock Farm, ready for the season.
Insurance, $50.
This horse by st. Thomas 1861.
out of Queen of the East 1923. by
Carton Duke of Connaught 5000,
stands l64 hands and will weigh
when fat 1850 pounds.
He Is superb, powerful-goine
horse, on short legs, with fine back

Mansfield Farm for Square-dealing
and courteous treatment will be
maintained at all times.

How 10 Prevent Typhoid.

During the next few weeks many
people in Virginia will develop
fever. All Of these people will
have to undergo q long illness and
about one in ten will die as result
of the disease The summer cpl
denies of the disease usually begin
to appear about the first of July.
showing that the germs are taken
into the system ABOUT this time.
While some cases of typhoid will
develop in a climate like that of
Virginia, in spite of all preventive
measures, yet a large majority of
the cases can be prevented by the
observance of 4 few simple pre-
cautions. To prevent the disease.
the real causes must be understood.
In plain terms no person can con
tract typhoid fever unless he swal-
lows in some manner some of the
eXcrement of a person who has or
has had the disease.
This Is most often done in water
or milk that has been contaminated
with the germs from a typhoid
case, but the excrement may be
carried to the food. or even directly
to the mouth on the feet of flies
that have fed upon it. Sometimes
the disease is contracted by eating
raw fruit or vegetables that have
been soiled with the germs, or
oysters that have come from pol
luted waters. Those who nurse
cases of typhoid often contract the
disease by carrying the germs into
the mouth on the fingers. which
they have failed to wash after
waiting on the patient.
The two danger points in the
country are the well and the dry
closet. If these are safeguarded
She danger is rendered much less

Concrete Structure at Partland, Me-,
Which IL Well Spoken OF.
Cement Age describes a concrete
bungalow at Portland, Me-, in which
the exterior of the house is Of con-
crete panels. The concrete panels are
but one inch in thickness, and besides
being remarkably light, are strong
enough to bear an immense weight. The
panels are REINFORCED with strips OF
steel wire, and in the tests applied to
they withstood the strain of three
heavy men jumping up and down upon
them and showed nc sign Of injury.
They are ornamented on the outside
from steel ceiling designs. The panels
were modelled in wooden frames on a
base consisting Of a strip of steel cell
ing, by means of which the decorative
design vas transferred to the cement.
giving the panels an attractive appear
ance. The wooden frames were made
of three-inch stuff and the exterior of
the concrete panel comes flush with
the wood, while the recess in the side
which forms the interior affords two
length and width Of the panel, the &C.
ment concrete being one inch thick.
This is accomplished by filling the
forms partially with sawdust or other
material before the cement concrete is
poured in, then turning the form over
SO that the concrete can be pressed
against the steel ceiling design of the
mold. After sufficient water has been
poured upon the composition to insure
~compactness and perfect settling in the
mold, the sawdust filling is removed,
the interior smoothed off nicely and
the completed panel is left to dry and
harden.
