Although the United States Govern
ment supports but one national mill
tary academy it encourages military
training in number of other schools
and colleges by detailing to these insti-
tutions officers of the army and navy.
These subsidiary military schools are
Of three kinds. There Is, first, the state
school which receives financial aid
from the state government and Is re-
garded as a part of its military estab-
lishment. A notable example of this
class of schools is the Virginia Mill
tary Institute, famous as the West
Point of the Confederacy, and now en-
joying the distinction of having more
of It's graduates In the United States
Army than any other school or college.
The second class comprises the agri-
cultural and mechanical colleges which
have received donations of land from

Plan for Feed-Box.

The illustration of a feed box Is
self-explanatory and with the follow.
ing list Of dimensions should be easy
to build: The legs are made from
4x4's 81 inches on the high side, saw
ing bevel at one end OF IL inches;
the sides are 2x12 inches; the length
Of the box is feet. The bottom is
made by joining seven common floor
boards, generally using fence flooring
clear of knots as possible. The best
way to lay the bottom Is to take
16-foot fence boards, laying the two
end 2x4 cross pieces inches from
the end. Across the center lay two
other 8 inches apart, saving the bot
tom In two to make the bottoms for
two boxes. The 2x4 across the center,
which is used for supporting the CEN
ter of the bottom, should be made Of
hard wood. Clamps go around this
2x4 and over the top of the box. Use
16-inch clamp, such as commonly
used for building hay racks; bore
through the 2x4, place the clamp bot
tom side up over the side of the box
and draw 1t up tight. The lower edge
