KING PLAN OF VENTILATION
Arrangement by Which Foul Air Of
Barn ls Removed by shaft-IlIuS-
tratlon Shows Flues.

The King system Of ventilation Is
an arrangement by which the foul air
OF the barn is removed by a shaft
called a ventilator. 1t is built upon
the same principles as a chimney to a
fireplace. The fresh air is admitted
to the barn by ducts made in the wall
that open on the outside near the base
OF the wall and on the inside near the
ceiling, says Hoard's Dairyman. This
construction prevents the warm air
at the ceiling from passing down and
out and permits the cold air to be
tempered more or less before 1t reach
es the animals. The ventilating fiue
takes the coolest and foulest air from

than we can use and so have
a surplus for export. But the
tariff might mean a great deal
if there were a failure in the
potato and wheat crops. In
that event-that is to say, when
our farmers had no potatoes or
wheat to sell-the tariff would
be really protective" That is,
it would raise still higher the
price of these products that are
essential in every home in the
country. The tariff would then
become a very real tax on food.
Is it that for which insurgen-
cy is fighting? Is the making
of food still harder to get in
time of drouth and famine-ls
that their holy cause? Is a tax
on a wooden coat or blanket an
outrage, while it is statesman
like and altogether righteous to
impose a tax on the widows

bowl of potatoes when famine
stalks across the land.

Canada's Potatoes

Anent the reciprocity discus
sion the Kansas City Star, in
surgent, prints the following
editorial:
Canada raised about IS mill
ion bushels of potatoes last year,
little over a forth as many as
were produced in the United
States. This year with the crop
a partial or complete failure
over a large portion of the
United States, and potatoes So
a. bushel or more, it is to he
hoped that Canada will have a
big yield and that the reciproc-
ity treaty will become effective
in time for consumers in this
country to get potatoes free of
DUTY from canada.
What have Senators La Fol-
lette and Cummins to say to
that?
Is it a reasonable hope to
which our Kansas City contem-
porary gives expression?
Or, even if potatoes in the
United States became so scarce
that they went to $40 a bushe !,
would the brave and devoted
insurgent leaders in Washing
ton still stick up for a tariff on
potatoes in the name of the
American farmer?
1t requires no argument to
prove that a tariff on potatoes,
or q tariff on wheat, means
nothing so long as we raise
more potatoes and more wheat
