A shed to hold farm implements
may not look as important as some
of the other buildings, but it is neces.
sary to prevent waste. The depreci-
alton in the value of farm imple-
ments and machinery is about 10 per
cent per year under good care. When
the machines are left to weather and
rust in the rain and wind the loss
is simply ruinous. More machinery is
required on farms than formerly. and
it is not a question whether a farmer
can afford a machine shed or not; the
only problem is to find out how to
build it and how large to build it.
In the first place the implement
shed should be big enough to hold all
farm tools and it should be well built
and tight enough to keep out the wind
and small animals. including chickens
The plan shown herewith is 16 feet
in width and 60 feet in length. The
width is all right for any length shed.
1t may be built shorter and the length
continued at any time II more room
is needed. The doorways provide
headroom sufficient for the highest
machines, and the width of the widest

OBSERVE TEN-HOUR LAW.

to observe the ten-hour labor law, pro-

charging that the corporation was VIC.

Mr.. Parish says his company has been
exerting every effort to live up to its
provisions, and this has been done ex.
cept in a few isolated instances in
northern Mississippi towns, where in
a few cases girls have worked SO
hours a week, at their own request,
