From the crop OF recruit pitchers,

three or four. In his task he viii

veteran Joe Sugden.
II will be Hughes duty to per-

aggressive qualities of the team,
missing last year, must be restored.
More important yet Is the decision
which Hughie must make regarding
some of the veterans Of the club.
Has the time come for big shift

In positions now held by the stars OF

TOMMY HUDSON A
DISAPPOINTMENT
Local Scrapper Didn't Deserve Worse

Nevertheless. 5

Poor Little Danny McMahon's long
rest must have been disturbed last
evening while Tommy Hudson, the
star boxers protege was shocking the
crowd at Windsor by some very use

to Johnny Albanese, the Ohio feather.
The result was just as Hudson's

the majority OF those who had packed

Johnny boxed with an uninterrupt-
ed series OF round-arm punches which
seldom landed In the second round
the Detroiter accidentally butted his
opponent and had him groggy from
the effect OF big lump over his left
eye. but failed to follow up his ad-
vantage. Tommy was wide open
throughout the fight, for any OF the
tapping lefts which Albanese sent his
way and the bout closed disappoint-
ingly.
At that, the Detroiter deserved moth
ing worse than draw. He did the
only real damage done during the
fight. carried most of IL and had a
clear margin In the first two rounds,
which we're as many as Albanese
could truthfully he said to have won.
At close quarters Tommy had It all

realize this, apparently, and tried 10

Ground Floor Plan of Barn.

The plan shown IN the accompany
ing figure is for barn 36x60 feet. 1t
will accommodate IA horses. BY In
creasing the length twelve feet it Will
accommodate eighteen head. 1t has
two feed rooms, safe and conven-
lent place for harness, two box stalls
and twelve open stalls.
The barn may be sided with 16-foot
stock boards with battens or with
shiplap. BY making the caves higher
than 16 feet there will be more room
for hay. but barn of the dimensions
given will contain all the hay required,
as 1t will hold about forty tons. In
stead of chutes or the regular man
gers to feed hay there is feedway
three feet wide, with perpendicular
sides three feet high from the floor of
the stalls, and It is floored on a level
With the top of the sill. A feedway
like this is better than managers or
chutes, as 1t allows man to pass
along the entire length of the barn in
front of the horses when feeding;
there is absolutely no waste of hay,
as the horses stand with their heads
over the hay while eating and do not
pull 1t out and drop 1t under their feet,
and the chaff Is not constantly falling
down In their eyes, as when manger
is used that feeds from above.
The feed rooms are situated on each
side Of the driveway and are each d.
vided into two compartments and an
entry SO as to allow variety of feed
to be kept and to be easy of access.
The barn should be lighted with ten
box stall, two to each feed room and
one In front Of each single stall. Com
mon barn sash should be used, having
six 8x10-inch panes to each sash, a
single sash to each window, with the
longest way Of the sash up and down.
They should be put In ON top of the
grit, about four feet from the bottom
Of the sill, and should be arranged to
open by sliding to one side.
Feed rooms should be sided with
nard pine flooring with the smooth
side next to the stalls and driveway.
be put up along the sides of the feed
rooms next to the driveway, which will
be found to answer as well as regu-
lar harness room and more conven-
lent, as 1t will be more accessible.
The box stalls should be sided per-
pendicular, inside and out, from
floor to ceiling, with hard pine floor
ing, except the front, which can be
sided up four feet high and left open,
unless stallion is to be kept, in
which case the front may be finished
out to the ceiling with halfinch rods
set four inches apart in the top Of the
partition or the regular box stall wire
work may be used No manger should
be used in the box stalls, the hay be-
ing fed on the floor None will be
wasted unless more is fed than the
animal should have.
