1t nowadays is likely to put up concrete barn
with slate roof-and in some localities the cost
is very little more than frame structure TO say
nothing of the saving in upkeep, as for instance
the expense of frequent paintings. or course
the great argument in favor of the concrete struc
ture is its fireproof character. The oldtime farm
er with no frehghting facilities always contended
that he might as we'll put up frame barn, be-
cause II the contents caught fire 1t was unlikely
that the structure could be saved even II 1t was
built of brick or stone. This may have been true
to some extent in the old days. but 1t is not the

farm in this generation has some fre-fght equip

more by rural telephone. The chances are ten to

much less danger of fire in the barn than there

Whereas the new-fangled barn with all its fancy

The semi-centennial of Pauline Kuezalska has

rights movement in Poland. AS a young girl she
taught poor girls at home. Her pupils num-

and five each. The second step in her work was
to found the committee of the third sewing school,
which soon outgrew its narrow bounds and be-
came the Society of Womans Work This be-
came the Woman's Mutual Aid society.
Shortly after attending the Woman's Rights con-
gress in Paris in 1889 she began to collect in her
little drawing women from all sections Of
her country. Here she started the Women Land
Owners association the Association of BOokkeep-
ers and several other organizations of women.
