EAST GOT
An Iowa Sheep Barn.

the trough, then passes over pulley
up about feet on the post, then
down and once around three-Quarter-
inch gas pipe, and then a 15-pound
weight is tied to the end of the rope
The gas pipe is one straight line tight
iy screwed together and placed In
brackets SO that II is free to turn.
There Is crank on one end of the
pipe. The iron weight balances the
weight OF the trough SO that by turn
Ing the crank the trough can be raised
or lowered very easily. Boards ~
inches wide are then nailed on each
side of the post, leaving space of
about ten inches through which the
trough can be raised and lowered. The
inner one of these boards is part of
the hayrack. The grain is fed first
and is put in while the trough is up.
AS the sheep cannot get to the feed
while the trough is up, one can take
plenty of time in putting out the feed,
and then place 1t all in reach OF the
sheep in few moments by lowering
the troughs. AS soon as the grain is
eaten. the troughs are raised and the
sheep reach through under the trough
for the hay. The lower part of the
hayrack comes out even with the out
side of the trough. SO that the hay
rolls out where the sheep can reach 1t
easily. The troughs along the outside
of the barn are made In the same man
ner except that they are placed be-
tween two upright pieces. They are
just inside the line of posts
These troughs have been in use for
four years. There is no danger OF
catching sheep under them and cho-
king them to death. but after the
sheep become accustomed to being fed
in them there is practically no trou-

The hive should be just the right
depth SO that when the frames are
hung In the rabbets they will hang
with the bottoms just on a level with
the bottom of the hive.
cheap bottom-board may be made
by mailing four strips together. leav-
ing one of the ends an inch lower
than the sides and the other end.
Set this on the ground and fill with
sawdust or clean sand and you have
a bottom board that will serve the
purpose just as well as a more ey.
pensive one. A very good cover may
be made by cutting a wide board Just
the right length and mailing strips on
each end to keep II from splitting. I
do not advise such hives for general
use. but. as | said before. as make.

The Elbert County tribune., 1911-04-28

Generally speaking. cheap contrap.
lions are an abomination in the bee
yard. but there are times when some
thing which can be gotten up in a
hurry and at small cost will be
appreciated.
In preparing such hives, however,
one should see to it that spacing is
kept right and nothing but standard
frames should be used. Then when
you get around to it you can simply
transfer your frames to another hive
and nothing will be lost, writes l.. c.
Wheeler in the Michigan Farmer
The hire body can be made by sim
ply mailing four boards together. leav-
ing the ends threequarters inch low
err than the sides. Then form a rab-
bet by mailing on strip three-quarter
inch wide and three-eights inch thick
on the outer edge of the end boards.

open-Air Schools Increasing.

Since January l. 1907. sixty-five
open-air schools for children afflicted
with or predisposed to tuberculosis
have been established In twenty-eight
cities. according to an announcement
made by the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis. The first open-air school in the
United States was established on jan
uary 1. 1907. by the board of educa-
ton OF Providence. R. l., at the in
stance of DR.. Ellen A. Stone. The
next school was established in May
of the same year at Pittsburg, and
the third at Boston in July. 1908. Ac-
cording to the reports received by the
National Association, the result of the
open-air class-work has been to re-
store most of the children to normal
health and efficiency. One of these
open-air schools or classes should be
established for each $4,000 popula
ton, especially In cities.

We built a sheep barn IN 1905. 1t
Is 60xs0 feet. standing north and
south. The doors are all at the ends.
The feedracks divide the lower floor,
all Of which is used for the sheep,
into four spaces about twelve feet
wide in the clear. There are doors nine
feet wide at each end OF each space
to allow driving through with a ma
nure spreader. The end section of
each feedrack is left out so that the
sheep may pass freely to any part of
the barn, writes Lee Colony of John
son county, Ia, In the Breeders Ca
zette. The hay is stored over the cen
trail portion of the barn. The haymow
is 80 feet wide. leaving space of Is
feet on each side where no hay is
stored. Hay is taken in at each end of
the barn. Large gates are fastened by
hooks to the posts at the side OF the

The feed racks are constructed of
boards IL inches wide placed hori-
zontally. The lower portion is feet
wide and one board high. The next
board is set in 6 inches and raised up
or 8 inches to leave a space for the
sheep to reach the hay. The upper
part is sloped outwardly. The feed
troughs are a unique feature They
are inches wide and 2 inches deep
inside. They are made of 1-foot
boards. They are not fastened rigidly
to anything. but are made to raise and

feet long. Those on the hayracks are
made right in the line OF parts; that
is. the bottom Of the trough is cut out
where the post goes through and the
sides of the trough pass up and down
on each side of the post. Then at

RARE OLD PRINTS
BOUGHT BY MORGAN
Said TO Have Paid 100000
for Them.

Paris, Oct. 2S.-The finest collection OF
old manuscripts in Paris will be on its
way to J. Pierpont Morgan within two
days. The collection was bought from
Edmond Foule, the most erudite and
celebrated collector in the French me-

spent practically his whole life collecting
manuscripts and objects of art. Most of
those bought by Mr.. Morgan are If
eenth and sixteenth century manu-
scripts. Many of them are in Latin,
and Illuminated: some are in French.
The price paid was 100000. NJ Foule
has also a splendid collection of bronzes
and sculptures, particularly a fine
church stall and a Virgin and Child, by

the whole collection, but Mile Foule, the
daughter of the collector, would not con-
sent to part with them.
