GOOD FARM BUILDINGS

Floor OF Structure Intended for Ac.
commodation Of Live Stock Should
Be Impermeable and Non-Ab-
sorbent az Possible.
CBy w. r. CELEBRITY


Since the introduction Of Portland
cement concrete as floor-laying ma
terial there has been no excuse for un-
comfortable and inefficient floors at
the homestead. To be efficient, the
floor of house intended for the &C.
commodation of live stock must to as
great degree as possible be both inn
permeable and non-absorbent. II 1t be
neither, 1t will be liable to become Of
fensive itself. and will lead to the
same condition In the soil upon which
1t lies as we'll Flagstones of good
quality and finish and flooring tiles
may reach high standard in these re-
spects, but unless they are very care
fully jointed liquid matter will leak
through the seams and polute the soil
underneath. II with such as these it
is difficult to keep the subsoil whole
some, it need never be attempted with
irregularly finished slabs, far less
with small boulders, as paving stones.
Concrete can, however, be laid with

out joint or crack in the whole area
covered 1t is impervious to water;
moisture cannot pass down through it,
nor can ground damp pass up. 1t can
be worked into forms required in such
places, and 1t wears well. A further
advantage Is its comparative cheap
ness. Another is the effective resist
ance that 1t gives to rats; these un-
firing "sappers and miners" are non
plussed when faced by well.laid con-
crete floor.
Open channels alone are permissible
in the buildings we are dealing with;
covered drains can never be kept sani-
tary In these places-not, at any rate,
under the treatment 1t is found practi-
cable to bestow upon them there.
Here, again, concrete comes to the
front on account of the regularity and
smoothness of outline 1t is possible to
give them in that material A con-
crete channel can be effectively swept
or scraped with ease. and bucket or
two of water swilled along its course
will leave 1t comparatively sweet and
clean
Limitations of Concrete.
But while concrete is eminently we'll
adapted for flooring the parts of farm
buildings that are label to be soiled
by the tied-up animals, 1t is not so well
suited for their stalls or lairs, 1t is all
right as regards smoothness, but it
seems to be too cold for both cows
and pigs to lie upon unless abund-
ance of bedding or litter is at the dis
posal of the attendants. When heavy
horses come it is hardly durable
enough; the pounding of their iron
bound heels are too much for concrete.
The passages and channels of the
three places we started with can have
no better flooring medium than con-
crete, but something little warmer
and less unyielding is required for
both cows and pigs to lie upon. Horses
might be left to take advantage of its
smoothness were 1t more durable
against their heels, because they usu-
ally have more bedding afforded them
and they have less time to lie down.
Brick Pavement
Makes a very suitable floor for the
cows stall, and it answers equally
well for the pigs bed. Well shaped
building bricks laid on bed of lime
or cement serve the purpose admira-
bly,. The cows can never soil their
stall floors, provided the building is
arranged to meet their requirements;
neither do the bigs mess their sleep
ing place provided 1t is kept clear of
the rest of the floor space. At this
rate there is not much likelihood OF
the soil beneath the brick pavement
ever getting contaminated by excretal
matter, even when the bricks are sim
ply bedded on sand or ashes and are
not grouted. But when bedded on
lime and grouted with cement, firm,

the pigs rarely mess these plat
forms" When feeding they void ex-
crement enough, but then 1t falls on
the concrete floor between the trough
and the raised bed. The liquid matter
escapes either underneath or round
the troughs into the channel along
side the passage; and the solid matter

leaving much trace behind 1t. The
feeding troughs are of glazed fire.

high sloping backs, tending outwards
into the passage, over which projec-
ton the food can easily be tipped from
bucket or ladle. Cross-pieces from
front to back keep each snout from
boring from right to left In the trough.
The high back Of the troughs help to
make out the front barrier Of each d.

above these, as the section shows,
complete it effectually, while they adj

simplifies matters when doors to the
pen can be dispensed with at the
passage side and be put in the back
wall instead This affords increased
trough space, and is otherwise con.
venient enough. The semi-solid ex-
creta can be easily removed by the
back, a concrete barrow track being
carried along one end Of the platform

narrower strip will serve. A run of
water from one end of the house to

WORLD CHURCH PEACE COUNCIL

Geneva, Aug. lone hundred and
fifty Protestant ministers, one-third of
whom represent the church in Ameri-
ca, have assembled at Constance to
take part in the World Church Peace
Council, which is to begin four days
session tomorrow. The gathering will
be the first of its kind and will be
conducted under the auspices of the
Church Peace Union, which was
founded by Andrew Carnegie in the
early part of this year with an en-
dowment of $2,00O,00O. The partici-
pants in the Constance conference
will be confined to Protestants. A
similar gathering for Catholics is to
be conducted at the same time and
under the same auspices at Liege,
Belgium.
The Constance conference will con-
slider, among other topics, "The Ro-
man Catholic Church and the Peace
Movement" the purpose being not to
criticize it but to ascertain If possible
workable methods by which co-opera'
tion between Protestant and Catholics
may be utilized.
Other subjects of discussion will be
proposed congress of the churches
of Great Britain, Canada and the
United States to celebrate one hun
dred years of peace; education in
theological schools, looking to the
making of ministers of the future
more inclined toward peace senti
ments; war and peace in budgets, the
British and German councils aiming
at bringing about better political feel
ing between their nations; anC
whether as an outgrowth of the Con
stance conference, world congress
oe churches shall be called within the
next year or two.

being the biggest thriller" OF the
year. The excitement created by the
auto polo game, which, II is announc-
ed, is played for blood" and in
which the frequent overturning of
the machines adds to the thrilling ma
ture of the performance, is said to
surpass anything hitherto seen in a
tent show.
The auto polo, however, evidently
is not permitted to intefere either
with the generous amplitude of the
Wild West performance or to dis.
count any of its old-time thrills.
Scores Of cowboys, cowgirls, Indians,
Mexicans and other typical Wild
West people give performance that
is said to be exhilarating in the ex-
treme. There are Indian attacks up
on the wagon train of the pioneers, a
stage hold-up by outlaws, a roundup
with long-horned Texas steers, buff
falo hunt, the capture and punish
ment of a horsethief, wrestling
match between cowboy and wild
bull, crack shooting by Sioux and
