IMPORTANCE OF GOOD
LIGHT AND VENTILATION
One of Common Errors in Building Stables Is Failure to
Provide Windows and VentiIatcrS In
Sufficient Numbers.

One of the common errors in build
ing stables is 10 fail 10 provide win
dows and ve~nti!ators in sufficient num-
bers. In the cheaper barns it is the
light especially that Is usually left out
OF the calculation. This is n of the
most serious mistakes when We stop
to think of how cheap light really is
and how valuable it is as a germi-
eide.
Many Of the diseases Of our live
stock may be attributed to germs. Tu-
berculosis is caused by specific germs.
The myriads of germs that escape
from tubercular animals confined in
a barn are disseminated through The
stables, and sunlight is a factor in the
destruction Of these germs. In fact
light destroys much germ life. Aside
from the health standpoint good light
In the stables makes work more pleas
ant anG provides greater comfort for
the farm animals.
Why not have the barn as light as
the par,ors Of the farm house? 1t

of grass a certain lot Of its plants
will grow and the rest will die soon
after they have terminated.
The les that grow will not inter-
fere with the other varieties and the
yield will be increased.
Practical experience has shown US
thai any soil will be more certain to
yield larger and better crops of for
age and hay when it is seeded with
mixel grasses than when sown to
clover and timothy alone.
Our flocks and herds will thrive
better when fed on mixed grasses,
mo matter whether in a green con.
dition or cured for hay) than they
will when fed on any one or two va
rieties sowed alone, no matter how
nutritious these grasses may be.
We will find it in every way as i'm.
portant to balance our forage rations
as 1t is the grain rations If we obtain
the best results from a minimum
amour Of feed.

In the summer windows and doors
may be left open, but III the winter
time it is quite different. Inlet pipes
for fresh air should be constructed as
we'll as proper outlets for carrying off
odors and bad, air.
Veut1lators should be distributed
about the barn instead OF relying upon
one or two largo one far *part. The
idea should be to equalize the venti-
lation 50 that the entire stable admits
Of proper ventilation.
Statistics show that h amoun OF
pure air breathed by DIFFERENT ami
mails during a period Of "a hours IN
order to supply oxygen needed is as
follows: The horse requires 3.4O1 Gu
bic feet; the COW 2.S04 cubic feet: the
pig l,1O3 cubic feet. Thus it will seem
that the horse will draw into and
force out Of his lungs each hour on
an average 142 cubic feet of air; the
COW III cubic feet; the pig 46 cubic
feet; the sheep 80 cubic feet; the hen
- cubic feet. 1t is therefore very

Railway Men Have Exciting limo
When Switch Mogul Turns Loose.

Glendive.-A new record for auto
mobiles was made here when an au-
tomobile was successfully used to stop
saving the lives of a sleeping train
crew.
Two switch engines were at work
in the yards, when n side hit" the
other. Engineer Ludwig Anderson
shut off steam and he and his fireman
jumped just as their cab was demOl-
ished by the collision.
But something struck the throttle
of the engine, opening it wide, and be-
fore it could be boarded it bounded
away down the main track as a run
away. With full steam up it tore
down the yards. The yardmaster tried
to wave it down. A section crew scat
tered just in time to avoid being run
over.
Down the track a short distance a
caboose had been left. in which a
train crew was asleep. This was
struck, but not with sufficient force to
wreck it. The caboose and an empty
freight car attached to 1t then be-
came part of the runaway.
In the meanwhile the fireman of the
truant engine had jumped into Henry
Mullendore's car and asked him to
chase the runaway, hoping to catch it
! on the long up grade east of the city.
Then began an exc ting race.
Steadily the automobile gained on the
runaway as the grade was reached.
Just at the top Of the hill the Buick
pulled close to the track. the fireman
made a jump and run. managing to
board the runaway engine and bring
it to a stop just before a long down
grade was reached.

SETTLERS RUSHING TO MONTANA
Sun River Irrigation Project Proves
DRAWING Force,

Washington. D. C.-The interest
of land seekers has been recently
aroused in the Sun River irrigation
project in Montana, and the remaining
farms in the Fort Shaw unit are being
rapidly occupied, according to reports
received by the reclamation service.
The favorable conditions OF affairs is
ascribed to the assurance of transport
tation facilities for the project through
the prospective immediate construc-
ton of branch Of the Great Northern
railway up Sun River valley.
The Sun River project occupies an
area equal to that of Rhode Island and
when fully developed, it is said, will
furnish homes for $4,000 people.

however, should be exercised in put

A uniform light should be provided in
all parts OF the stable.
TIE furnishing Of light is an impor-
tant che in the construction of n
farm building and it is not hard to OBJ
tain If a little forelhougCt is eXer-
cised. However, with ventilation it is
different because considerable plan
ming must be required when building
to insure an ample supply of fresh
air in the barn at all seasons of the
year. 1t is important TO have fresh
air IN the barn during cold weather
and at the same time avoid %draughts.

VARIETIES OF
TAME GRASSES
Careful Study VIII Disclose Fact
That F1ocks and Herds Thrive
Better on Mixture Than on
One Kind.
(By S. NJ. NIII.LER.)


There is no one matter connected
with good farm management that is
more deserving Of more careful atten-
ton than the growing Of tame grasses,
and the maintaining of the productive
capacity Of our permanent pasture
land. The successful grass grower
needs to have a practical understand
ing of all the species of tame grasses
that We grow and cultivate on our
farms as we'll as a knowledge Of their
requirements and conditions hat are
essential to their growth. Much of
the success and many times all OF the
profits of our farms are directly de-
pendent upon the amount and quality
OF hay and forage produced.
A cause of the inferiority of our
meadow lands is the fact that they
are supporting numberless useless
weeds.
If we could rid our meadows of
this pest it would add millions of dol
lars to the pockets of our farmers.
How can it be done? By thorough till.
age? BY the use of more grass seed!
Most emphatically no.. That would
be in direct opposition to the laws Of
nature.
We may prepare the soil In the
best possible manner and SOW or

grass will come up as thick as thu
