He sold a crooked blue sky stock

He made crooked talk and he

City Magistrate Krotel, who is noted

NOR, occasionally manifested in Ut
terances from the bench, turned a
cruel shaft loose upon a pestiferous
young attorney this week, to the su-
preme enjoyment of crowded court

young attorney was prosecuting In a
case where the maintaining of nui-
sance was alleged. The rulings Of
Magistrate Krotel did not please him.
His numerous objections became per.
sistently controversial. IF your honor

to observe that ! doubt-in the pres.

cows has q gutter in back Of the
stalls, and also the floor OF the stalls
is made on q slant 80 that they can
be easily washed out. In the horse
part Of the stable the floors are made
level and no gutter is needed in back
Of the stalls. Convenient harness clos.
cts are placed in the front part Of the
barn alongside the horse stalls.
Lighting is one of the most impor-
tant things in a barn. Chickens like
to lay eggs where 1t is dark. but dairy
cows do not accomplish much unless
they are given plenty of light. The
lighting in this barn is well taken
care of. There are seven windows
spaced along each side Of the barn
and In each end there are two more,
making eighteen windows in all. In ad-
dition to contributing to the comfort
Of the cows a well-lighted barn is
much pleasanter to work In.
The entrance to the barn for the
animals is through a wide double
sliding door at the front end OF the
barn. There is also another double
door at the back through which the
litter carrier goes out to the dump.

ment stable used to mean a bank barn
with the accompanying dampness and
dlnginess that is SO unhealthful for
any kind of stock. The barn shown
here is dry, we'll ventilated and warm
and suited to raising the best kind of
stock. II bank barn is built against
a side hill the hill should be cut away
and the entrance to the threshing
floor maintained by a bridge.
Threshing floors are not generally
provided in barns made in the mod
ern way. 1t is waste of space to
set aside valuable storage room in a
barn when 1t is only to be used for a
few days each year. It is better to
do the threshing outside and use all
the space in the barn the year round.
The intake fiues for the ventiating
system come into the barn at the top
OF the concrete wall and are dis
charged near the ceiling over the
heads Of the stock. The outtake
fiues start in back of the stalls anu
are carried up to the ventilators on
the roof. A pure and plentiful supply
of air is assured by this system.
The feed for the cows and horses
kept in this barn is taken care OF by
a feed carrier running on tracks along
each side wall in front OF the man.
gers. The track also runs along the
back Of the barn SO as to connect up
the feed alleys with the silo. The lit.
ter carrier track runs straight through
the center alley through the back door
to the dump or the manure spreader.
A large space is provided for the
storage of hay in the haymow. This
haymow is unobstructed, as no col.
umns are necessary to support the
roof, which is Of the gambrel type.
The truss framing provides a stiff
and strong support for the roof against
the snow, wind, etc.
Room is furnished to comfortably
house eight horses and sixteen cows.

crowd in one door at the same time.
The outtake fiues for ventilation are
not in the way, but are along the wall
where the space is not needed. The
cows heads are away from the bright
light of the sun, as they would be in
the pasture. The cutters are well dis
infected by the action Of the suns

ed by the admirers Of this style:
Most of the work is done behind the

therefore is much easier to handle in

He has twice been premier and has
three times declined the honor, he has
been minister Of finance, has served

With this varied experience in
governmental affairs, he was sought
by the king to guide the cabinet in the
crisis brought about by the outbreak
Of war. Sonnino declined, fearing. 1t
is said. that he would not be able to
command the necessary support in
parliament. He has always declared
he belonged neither to the right, nor
to the left" meaning that he adopted
no policy Of open support or opposi-
