sides. The cows can be run In and out
handler and be MIXED more conven-
iently. The manure can be easily
cleaned out with wheelbarrow or an
overhead litter carrier. The floors
should preferably be made of cement,
with fairly deep, wide cutters of th"
same material. Plenty of bedding
should be used to soak up the liquid
manure.
Ventilation.
Provision for some sort Of yentila
ton should be made. The plan of hav
ing the windows placed high and SO
arranged that they swing in at the top
provides good ventilation, especially II
there are windows on both sides. Tri.
angular pieces OF board at the sides OF
the windows prevent drafts and cause
the air TO be forced upward toward the
ceiling. where II is distributed all over
the room. The King system OF yentila
ton works well where the barn is
tight Fues for impure air open at
the floors and extend up TO cupoas In
the roof The pure air iues open near
the ground outside and al the top OF
the room inside This secures con
slant circulation Of air without drafts.
In frame barn these nues can be
made by boxing In the space between
two studdings.
Iron swing stanchions cost very little
more than the old fashioned wooden
ones and are a great deal more con
venient and durable. The managers
may be made Of cement. in which case
they may be used for watering the
cows In extremely cold weather. II
the farm is provided with some sort Of
water system pipe can he laid To
one end OF the manger, so that water

WRECK KILLS EIGHT
 ON SCOTCH EXPRESS. Twenty five Others Injured When Train is Deraled and Burned.

Kir1by Stephen, England, Dec. 25.- Eight passengers were killed, some of them instantly and others burned to death and twenty-five more injured in the wreck of the Scotch express near Hawes Junction yesterday
 The express carried 300 persons bound for their homes in Scotland to spend Christmas. It was running at it's ordinary speed when near the june tion it collided with a pilot engine and was derailed Fire started in the wrecIage and the whole train. with the exception of the locomotive and rear baggage car, was reduced to ashes.
 It was thought at first that but two persons had been killed and that the others had had time to escape before the flames swept through the coaches. A search of the debris, however, result ed in the discovery of charred bodies and by the time that the whole wreck age had been gone through eight bod ies had been recovered. Most of the bodies were burned beyond recognition.
 Among the dead was little girl who perished in the flames before the eyes of her parents, who were helpless to save her.
 The scene Of the accident was high up in the Pennine hills, the loftiest sec tion traversed by railway in England. The isolation of the wreck caused some delay before physicians could reach the place.

The court was told that Mir. Mclaughlin left town after he had received summons to appear in court.
 After making inquiries regarding the circumstances, Judge Stearns severely censured Mclaughlin. He was released without paying a fine, but was required to pay the costs arising under the writ of attachment.
