very pleasant, il it? Under these condi-
tons do you think you could get up in
the morning in a fit condition to do a
good days work Nevertheless. there
are thousands of dairy farmers who
house their cows in just this sort of
fashion, and then, after time, when the
business is failure, tell their neighbors
that there is no money in the dairy BUSH
ness. Whyi Because the cows cannot,
under the adverse conditions, with con
sequent short and poorly balanced feed,
produce the maximum amount of milk
which they would if they were cared for
properly.
Many OF our farmers have developed
the idea that to keep your COWS healthy
and comfortable, and to produce sanitary
milk, it is absolutely necessary to have
expensive barns. This idea has been
gathered through some Of the stories in
the metropolitan magazines of farm
buildings erected on the estates Of mil.
lionaire farmers AS matter of fact,
many of the dairy barns where santa.
tion is the primary object are quite mex
pensive. Any of the state experiment
stations or the department Of agricul-
ture win be glad to furnish dairy farm
er with plans Of sanitary and, moreover,
inexpensive barns.
II wholesome and sanitary milk is to
be produced, the farmer should realize
that the cows must be kept out of the
mud as much as possible Conditions in
and around the barn can, in many cases,
be greatly improved by draining and
grading. Draining is not OF itself sufii-
Gent. as the tramping OF the cattle soon
puddles the surface, thus practically pre-
venting the water from reaching the tiles
below. The barnyard should have good
slope, such as will insure good surface
drainage, and should have rood ton
layer of gravel or cinders. In many
places, this may involve great d,,4 ii
work, but even if the grading cannot
all be done in one year, arrangements
should be made by which at least a part
of it is done every year.

Gumption On the Farm.

The following aphorisms appear in the
January Farm Journal;
DO not try the patience of the good
wife by giving her green wood to burn.
Many man wears himself out trying
to keep up with his good intentions.
Whitewash your barn, but never I'M
dertake to whitewash crooked pol
itieian.
You are better than you seem; better
than you believe yourself to he, So
don't give way TO Encouragement.
There are more people dying for the
lack of kind word pat on the back
and little encouragement, than there
are from disease.
Hot water OF the grindstone will spoil
II after q little so that it will have no
grit. Use warm water, not hot, for tax
ing the frost out OF your stone.
What lot Of strength there is wasted
ehopping wood with dull axes! Spend
few minutes at the grindstone, and
see how nicely the world will 90 after
that.
Some folks make themselves so lame
kicking about things that they tire
themselves all out, and never make any
thing out of life. 1t doesn't pay.
The boys and girls get enough hard
knocks out in the world without your
being stern and harsh with them. Let
your home be to them shelter and a
refuge from the storms of the world.
Gets pretty slippery around the house
and barn sometimes. Get barrel Of
sand, coal ashes OF sRwdust and when
such days come, scatter some on the icy
spots Easier TO save bones than it is
to mend them.
II helps the wagonmaker to let the
mud freeze to the wheels when YOU come
in from a trip. You don't need to do
it, though BY taking little pains you
can get most of the mud Off while ii Is
soft, and 50 save the wagon many years
longer
Do not track mud into the house.
Provide seraper and mat outside the
door, and do not forget to use them
before going into the house. Scrub
bing floors and sweeping carpets are not
easy tasks, and the thoughtful man will
not add to his wife's burdens.

Come Along. Fellows. and Make a Sled


Every boy can make his own sled or
toboggan," says the Woman's Home
Companion for January For a sled,
saw off your runners, making them five
inches deep and two feet long. Cut
front ends the shape of ordinary rum
ners, rounding oil with penknife. Screw
two cross pieces on runners, using large
screws. Use iron rod and bolt to brace
runners and to keep from spreading. Tin
cans with solder melted from them and
cut in strips and tackled on may be used
to nail on edge of runners, but rounded
iron strips which can be had OF any
blacksmith are better These should
have holes in them and should be
screwed on aad the screw-heads filed
down to exact level OF the iron Have
blacksmith bend runners for you, al
lowing a good arch extending beyond the
wood
ITO make toboggan, get two maple
boards 4 feet long, So inches wide, u
inch thick. Place the boards side by
side and join by means of round cross
sticks These are fastened to bottom
boards by thongs passed through holes
bored for them. Cut grooves in bottom
boards, underneath, so that cords will
not wear Fasten two bars on top of
the cross braces Now curl the front
end of bottom boards To do this, fiji
wash boiler wits boiling water. Put in
it the front ends and allow to remain
until soft enough to bend Bend and
lash securely to the side pieces and your
toboggan when dry is finished.

CORN DAY AT MONTPELIER.
Good Exhibits, Enthusiastic Meeting, In
teresting Speakers.

The second of the agricultural pro-
gramme given under the auspices Of the
Montpelier board of trade was held yes
terday ct the Kellogg Hubbard library
hall. The meeting was largely attend
ed and very enthusiastic, and corn
day" was equally as successful as apple
day" the first agricultural meeting.
The exhibits were many aud interest
ing. w. w. Holden Of Mortified showed
an ear Of corn raised at Whiting, which
measured 1914 inches long also wheat,
which won second mention in all New
England at the Worcester corn show.
In the afternoon, @. /. Martin of
Plainfeld addressed l75 farmers and
business men, making the Worcester
corn show the subject Of his talk. He
was followed by w. f. McSparren Of
Furnace, Pa, who spoke on Selection
and Growth Of Corn for Seed and Feed"
He stated that corn is the most val
liable ground plant in America and that
the only drawback in its cultivation is
our own carelessness. With the under
standing OF lands and crops, which ii is
possible for everyone to possess, plenty
of corn might be raised in this section
Of the country for all purposes.
Prof. j. T. Hills, director OF the ex-
pertinent station at the agricultural col.
lege in Burlington, gave an address on
Corn as a Silage Crop" He went into
the construction of silo in detail, fav-
oring the round one rather than the
square. He said that, as corn is pos
sessed Of great heating power, it should
be given the cow with alfalfa or clover
Ernest Hitchcock Of Pittsford and A..
NJ. Vaughan Of Randolph were called
upon and made brief addresses. Other
speakers were State Highway Commits
sioner G. w. Gates Of Franklin and Sec
rotary Fred Z. Gleason Of the board of
