NOT TO BE CAUGHT MAPPING
Uncle lobe Lived Up to His Reputa-
ton and the Doctor Lost
His Bet

There lives in a certain Vermont
town a quaint old character known
as Uncle Tobe," who is so conserva-
tive of action and speech that 1t
is most difficult at times to get any
thing definite from him. Uncle lobe.
like the Father of His Country, has the
reputation of never having told lie.
and i'm addition he is so cautious OF
statement that he has never been
known to tell an innocent untruth.
On one occasion his doctor. In con-
versation with friends touching Uncle
Tobe's characteristics, ventured to lay
a bet of five dollars that he could cause
Uncle lobe to tell what wasn't so. A
neighbor promptly took the bet.
The doctor walked into Uncle Tobe's
house next morning, and while he was
talking with the old man, the neighbor
who had taken the bet drove up to the
gate. Uncle lobe went to see what he
and then the doctor. as he had
agreed to do, went out the back door
and hid in the barn.

itor, lis the doctor In your house,?

The length of time ice may be kept
depends upon the character of insula
tion provided. This will naturally
vary with the location of the ice house
and the method Of construction. An.
other important factor will be the cost
of construction.
The simplest type of ice preserva-
ton consists in stacking the cakes in
a compact mass on a well-drained site,
as well protected as possible by nat
ural or artificial barriers from sun
and wind, and covering the mass with
sawdust. shavings, fodder marsh hay,
or any other good insulating material
Such crude method is not to be rec
commended except as a temporary
makeshift for Ice which is to be used
early in the season.
An inexpensive Ice house that will
give satisfaction in places where the
temperature approximates that Of
New York City and localities to the
north may be constructed as follows:
As a site for the structure choose
well-sheltered location convenient to
the place where the bulk of the ice
will be used during the season If
the area is not well drained naturally,
grade the surface so that no surface
water can ever flow into or through
the building and so that the water
from the melting of the ice will be
quickly disposed of. In some in
stances it may be necessary to pro-
vide tile drains laid Is or IS inches
below the surface to care for this
water.
Having properly provided against
water, both from without and from
within the ice house, set a line of
squared or flattened poles four feet
apart, so as to form a square of the
dimensions desired. The height of
the poles should be the same as the
length of the side Of the square, If
the greatest economy of space and
the best keeping conditions for the ice
are desired, t. e.. building IA feet
square should be IA feet high. A
house of this size will provide storage
for cube of ice 11x11x11 feet. which,
without allowance for voids, is equiva-
lent to about thirty-eight tons. IA

AS rule the fact that a horses
genealogy can be traced back to some
noted horse adds to his value.
1t is well enough to help Nature IN
caring for stock, but 1t is all wrong
to set Natures way aside and place

Remember that the horse is the
most nervous of all animals, and that
little things annoy and irrita.e him.
He will be contented or miserable &C.

1t does not make much difference
whether horses are watered before or
after eating. 1t is largely matter of
habit, and experiments show that one

In order that the house may be filled
without unnecessary labor a continu-
GUS door should be provided in the
middle of one end. The door should
be made in two or three sections, and
as the house is filled, loose planks of
proper length should be at hand to
place across the opening of the door

The ice must be placed on a bed of

Masonry Ice Houses.
Instead of the cheap, temporary con.
struction just described, ice houses OF
permanent nature can be built from
brick, stone or concrete. In these, as
in demonstrated houses, the mass
of ice should approach as closely as
possible cube in form. If the ma
sonry house is to be used in the same
manner as the temporary house no
inside lining will be necessary. The
packing used about the mass of ice
may be allowed to come in direct con-
tact with the wall. A 13-inch brick
wall or l2-inch concrete wall will
provide the necessary strength The
masonry walls are not as good nom
conductors as timber walls. 1t will
therefore be necessary for the protec.
ton of the ice to rely on the packing
material rather than on the wall ITSELF
If the house Is to be used for storing
ice without the use Of sawdust or
shavings the construction indicated
in the accompanying figure must be
followed. The lining must be as com.
plete on the floor and ceiling as on
the side walls in order to provide safe
Masonry houses may be constructed |
