of humidity in the air in the fall varies
in the different farming sections, but
it is a good plan to provide crib that
will give the greatest amount of ven
tilation possible to secure at reason
able cost.
Ventilation in a twOstory corn crib
may be helped out by using woven
wire corn mesh inside of the stud
ding. This prevents the ears OF corn
from stopping up cracks between the
wooden stats. When wire mesh is used
it is not necessary to have any wood
en- stats on the inside partitions. Stats
look better on the outside of the build
ing, and they prevent the rain and
snow from blowing in.
1t is recommended that the Stats
shall have beveled edges so placed
that the opening slopes down and out

She Spoke the Truth.

Two ladies, whose husbands are
members of the faculty Of Oberlin col

sor's wife. They were shown into a
room where the small daughter of the
house was playing. While waiting the
appearance of their hostess one of
the ladies remarked to her friend, at

LEARN HOW TO RELAX.
Nervous Women In Particular Should
Be Kind to Themselves.

Be Kind to Themselves.
One of the important things to know
in life, especially if you are woman
is how to let yourself alone. The aDli-
ity to relax. the art of being judiciously
lazy, the tact to let herself alone, mas
saved many a woman from a nervous
breakdown. We all know the house
wife who nags herself into such
state of conscientiousnebs that she
cannot rest. If she lies down she Is
continually worrying herself WIN
thoughts Of the work that she Is neg
lecting.
Much Of the blame for this state OF
affairs lies at the doors OF the mothers.
The mistake is in their training OF
their children. especially their daugh-
tiers. They are taught from earliest
infancy to be kind to others, to bear
with them, to forgive them, to help
them. but from birth to death no one
ever tells them to be kind. also. to
themselves.
The woman who nags herself can
make herself more miserable than any
one else possibly gould. She can make
her life more of a nightmare than any
misfortune could possibly make 1t. II
such women could learn to be kinder
to themselves there is no doubt that
their own lives would be heightened,
and not only that, but the lives or
those with whom they come in close
contact would be made far more pleas

ward. 1t is thought that an opening
like this induces ventilation better,
and it 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 it's 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 labor-saving 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 9TH
ers have portable wooden pits or
boots. Both kinds receive the grain
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 shelter when
1t becomes necessary to use such a
machine. Shelters for this purpose
are fitted with carriers that take the
corn ears from near the floor in front
of the corn cribs, and carry the ears
to the shelter, while the shelter 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
er is elevated to the bins overhead.
The corn is afterward sacked from a
chute extending down along the side
of the driveway.
In case the shelled corn is 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 ieveral times to get the
air through it, to prevent spelling.
There are many advantages in a
two-story corn crib and grain house
that is properly fitted with modern ma
chinery to handle grain.

First Sea Sianals.

Richard l. when he set sail for the
Holy Land found his flag and his
patron saint provided for him by the
church-St. George and his red cross
on a white ground. But Richard

Your "Funny Bone"

When you bump your nose or chin
you bump the flesh and bone and not
a nerve. Consequently you feel a SEN
sation of pain just where the blow was
struck. If you strike the point Of your
elbow it will be just the same. It's
only when you strike that little hollow
between the big central bone of the ell
bow and the little inside bone that the
tickling. tingling sensation is felt In
the little hollow you strike one of the
large trunk nerves that spring betwee.
the vcrtebra at the base Of the neck
and run through the arm to the wrist
In the hollow of the elbow the nerve
lies over a bone. When you strike that
spot you feel a tingling sensation which
isn't exactly funny, but because 1t
tickles the bone is called the funny
bone."-Milwaukee Journal

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 por-
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 40 pounds per cubic

after an illness lasting six weeks.
Fir. Lance was attacked with acute
indigestion and bowel trouble six
