adequately represent Mississippi in

That this correctly summarizes the
situation is shown by the fact that
very few of the legislators who have
thus far arrived are willing to express
their preferences. The lawmakers
are extremely reticent. 1t is their
undoubted intention to play a wait
ing game. Micaber-like, they want
something to turn up.
The favorite sons, of course. have
their following. Each and every as.

able to get hold of them and have
heart-to-heart talks. But a decisive

IMPROVED AND ADEQUATE
VENTILATION FOR STABLE
Illustration Shows How Air Is Pumped From Building at
All Times, Regardless of Direction in
Which Wind Is Blowing

The usual method Of stable ventila-
ton is to place f1ues with outlets ter
minating in a shaft through the roof
and surmOunted by q plain cupola or
owe with a cap a foot or SO above
the opening. The idea in the latter
case is that the wind will blow be-
tween the cap and the top of the shaft
as shown at B in the illustration here
with, says American Agriculturist.
This method tends TO increase the
flow of vitiated air from the stable
and thus aid the ventilation, pure air
coming in from inlet flues placed at
somewhat remote points from the out
let's.
Whether this method is fully salts
factory is not certain, for at times
when the wind is gusty the vitiated
air is forced back into the stable in.
stead Of being drawn out, and often
snow and sleet are drawn down the
shaft. To overcome the uncertain
working of this kind of shaft, as well
as other disadvantages of the plain
cupola, the style Of cupola shown al
c with sides opening in the direction

ventilat:on Is concerned. the principal
point Is the retention of wind force to
assist in ventilation when only the ami.
NAL heat in the stable is available to
produce ventilation. The assistance Of
the wind is of great service and should
be taken advantage of as much as pos
sible. A method of securing this ad.
vantage is shown in the large picture
herewith. AS the ventilator shaft ter
inmates in a square,, rather high GU
pola twice the size Of the shaft. Open.
ings of reasonable size are made oppo'
site each other in the walls of this Gu
rola and in line with the prevailing
winds, as shown at a. Doors are made
to fit these openings. connected as
shown at b and hung from a crOsspiece
below the roof of the cupola. Near the
bottom of the cupola are two or three
holes about 2 inches in diameter de
pending on the size of the cupola. The
ventilator shaft as shown at c extends
| above these openings but terminates
slightly below the larger ventilatol
! openings.
In operation, the door closes a:
shown at a on the right, and opens OF

the left; at the same time a current OF
air passes in IN the right at e and as
shown by the arrows passes out on the
left, at the same time drawing a cur.
rent Of air through the ventilating
shaft at c. The same object would be
secured if the wind blew from the op.
posite direction. 1t is important that
the cupola be divided into two sections
as shown at d SO that the wind can.
not pass directly across from the hole
e to the opposite side. If desired, four
compartments may be made as shown
at e SO that the wind may be admitted
on two sides of the cupola so that
there would be suction to this draft,
no matter from what direction the
wind might come.
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1910-09-02

Of the prevailing winds and covered
with doors hinged at the top but
swinging freely, has been used with
success. When there is no wind the
doors hang so that the cupola is partly
open on each side, but as shown in the
illustration, when the wind blows from
the right, the door on hat side is
closed by the force of the wind. The
other side, however, is open and there
is always a chance fo" the stable air
to pass out and no chance for rain or
snow to blow down the shaft. If de.
sired, doors can be placed on all four
sides Of the cupola.
Though this arrangement is salts

f1uences from the interior system of
