ward. It is thought that an opening like this induces ventilation better. and 1t certainly gives more protection to the corn.
 This building adds a good deal to the appearance of the farm. because it is a permanent structure The old style of low, slated corn crib never has been considered much of an orna- ment, and its temporary character eliminates such building as an as- set. In taking an inventory of the farm buildings, the old-fashioned crib is hardly considered, but a modern, up-to-date, two-story building fitted with laborsaving machinery. adds con siderable value to the farm.
 There are different kinds of elevat- ing machinery. Some elevators work on the principle of a sliding carrier. Others elevate the grain or corn in buckets that work in a leg which stands vertical. Some of these ma chimes require that pit shall be made in the floor of the driveway, while oth- CTS have portable wooden pits or pooN1- bcNu itNtAfO NHS O. o.h directly from the wagon box
 Elevating machinery is made to suit every case. Some designs are port able and some are stationary, while others are used either way. The port able elevators may be taken to the railway station to carry grain from the wagon to the farther end of a freight car, and the same machine may be used at home to store corn ears and grain in the home granary.
 The driveway in this grain house also is used for the corn sheller when it becomes necessary to use such a machine. Shelters for this purpose are fitted with carriers :hs: take the corn ears frcm near the floor in front of the corn cribs. and carry the ears to the sheller, while the sheller car rier puts the cobs into hog racks to be hauled away to the woodshed for sum- mer fuel The grain from the she'll The corn is afterward sacked from . chute extending down along the side of the driveway.
 In case the shelled corn is a little too damp it may be transferred by the same chute and elevated into another bin to prevent heating In very damp weather it may be necessary to handle shelled corn icveral times to get the air through it, to prevent spelling.
 There are many advantages in 6 two-story corn crib and grain house that is properly fitted with modern ma chinery to handle grain.

Mir William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF subject of building work on the farm. for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide experience as Editor. Author and Manufacturer he Is. without doubt. the highest authority on all these subjects Address all inquiries to William A. Rad ford, No. lS27 Prairie avenue. Chicago. Ill. and only inclose two-cent stamp for reply.
 Modern farm elevator machinery has worked wonderful changes in corn cribs. IL is another case of match ing machinery against hand labor in handling corn and other grains. Mod ern corn-elevating machinery saves a cent bushel at husking time by mak- ing a horse or gasoline engine do the work of housing. It saves a great deal more in the after handling by the aid of machinery.
 The building illustrated is 20 feet high 10 the caves and B feet from the floor to the peak. The grain ele- vator takes ear corn or other small grain as it pours out from under the tail board of the wagon box and car ries it up to the cupola on the peak. From here it is distributed by grain spouts to the different bins.
 The foundation of the building is of concrete made solid to last a lifetime Above the floor and foundation walls the building Is built in three parts, the center being made strong and solid to support the grain bins over the center driveway, while the cribs

FRUIT GROWING AND
 POULTRY COMBINED
Trees Offer Great Advantage in Providing Shade and Insect
 Food for Fowls.

The most important problem for the digestion of our orchard people is to get more money out of their places. For years we have urged the advisabil- ity of these people taking up poultry culture as an adjunct to their business and We desire to again insist upon the necessity of considering this matter seriously, says Denver Field and Farm. The paid experts have fig ured out that nice young hen prop erly chaperoned and provisicned ought to return a net profit of g a year although in all our travels we have never been able to discover such a remarkable performer in the hen family. It costs at least a dollar a year to run a hen and when such a layer can return gross income of s she must perfunctorily be a cracker jack such as the most of us do not possess.
 Whether or not we can bring our laying hens up to yield of l50 eggs a year is not the question however. The thing is to use the orchard tract for the running of fowls of one kind or another that will bring in a steady income so az to make the place more profitable at the expenditure of but little more time and money in the overhead charges
 It seems easy enough to run 100 hens on each acre without materially interfering with the regular orchard work so that the one essentially is to get at it and do it.
 One man is carrying an annua. flock of 600 birds to the acre where there are no trees and we do not see how the simple matter of trees has any thing to do in curtailing the proposi- tion when as a matter of fact they off, fer a great advantage through the shade and the insect food they are all the time propagating.

COTTONSEED MEAL
 GOOD FOR HORSES
Satisfactory Results Secured by Feeding at Rate of One Pound
 Per Head Daily.

In answer to the inquiry, "Is cotton seed meal good feed for horses?" Pro- lessor Foster of the New Mexico ex- pertinent station states that it is, wheL fed in small quantities in combination with other concentrates. A number of southern experiment stations and horse owners report satisfactory re- suits from feeding it to mares, colts. and driving horses at the rate of one pound per head daily, mixed with ground corn or other grain; and to work horses at the rate of two pounds per head daily, fed in the same man. ner.
 The Iowa station found that when fed in connection with corn and oats, II pound of cottonseed meal was equal to If pound of linseed oil meal in maintaining the weight of the horses and enabling them to do work; and that on account of being less lax adapted to the needs of horses at hard work Because of its high protein content and its peculiar flavor. it gives most satisfactory results and IS eaten with greater relish when fed in a mix ture with some of the grains, such as corn, oats, milo or barley.
 In localities where alfalfa is the principal roughage, cottonseed meal is not needed to properly balance the ration for farm horses. Any of the grains mentioned are sufficient. Its value is more apparent where farmers must rely mainly on timothy or prairie hay or some of the coarse folders for roughage.

CRUDE PETROLEUM
 AS NANCE REMEDY
Hogs Afflicted Should Be Given Thorough Treatment at h.
 tervaIs of Eight Days.

By M H. REYNOLDS. Minnesota Ex-
 pertinent Station.D
 Treatment of hogs for mango should begin with a vigorous scrubbing with brush, soap and soft water so as to remove the crust. A veriety of coal tar dips are on the market. Most of these are quite satisfactory if of suffi- cient strength and warm enough about 110 degrees, but do not boil. The hog should be given good thorough soaking in the dip, not less than tso minutes. The hog must go under head and all at least once. Treatment must usually be repeated one or more times at intervals of eight days. Treat the whole herd and do 1t thoroughly
 An effective dip can be made from crude petroleum as follows: Four gal Ions crude oil, 16 gallons of water and one pound of soap. The soap should be dissolved in the water by heating. An emulsion is then made by adding the oil and thoroughly churning the mixture. Water in different sections differs very greatly in the way it will combine with soap. If this amount of soap does not give a good emulsion simply add more soap. Avoid oily dips in cold weather. While the hogs are taking the dip. thoroughly clean and then disinfect the pens. In case of true mango the fence posts, trees and everything against which the hogs rub must also be disinfected. Use . strong disinfectant and plenty of 1t. After treatment do not put the hogs back into lousy or mangy pens.

Salt affects the size of eggs. Just 75 per cent of the contents of an egg is water and many advise the use of plenty of salt in the laying hens ra- tion to induce 1t to drink more water. One poultry raiser found by experi- ment that hens getting a heavy pro- portion of salt in their food drank double the amount of water consumed by hens having unsalted rations. The eggs from the pen where the hens got salt were exceptionally large.

enough to accommodate the amount of corn and small grains grown on the farm.
 The corn crib wings are built con siderably lighter than the main DOT ton of the building. for the reason that corn in the ear is lighter than wheat. and is less liquid than smaller grains. so that the pressure on the sides is less.
 Also the construction of the middle part of the building is necessarily stronger to support the grain bins overhead. The size of timbers may be estimated by figuring the weight of wheat, which is 4S pounds per cubic foot The outward pressure is practi-
