One or more braces may be nailed
across the open side of the form to
prevent it from spreading when the
concrete is tamped down. Extra
pieces Of wood inserted at the corners
make Q bracket effect at the top. A
simple post in the shape of letter
7. or perfectly plain post without a
projecting top would answer the pur-
pose.
To provide for fastening the mail
box to the post. bore holes through the
board at the top of the form. Bolts
should be inserted in these holes with
the heads down, or inside the form.
When finished. the threaded ends of
the bolts will project slightly above
the top of the post. 1t is an easy mat
ter to ent holes in a corresponding
position in the bottom OF the metal
mail box. These will permit the bolts
to pass through and be secured by the
use of nuts.
One part Portland cement, two parts
sharp, clean sand and four parts
crushed stone. ranging from one-half

results in making concrete posts. Con-

Rome wasn't built in a day"
Some Wisconsin farmers are finding
IT to their advantage to follow the
same plan in the construction of their
barns.
The completed basement of the barn
to-be, with tamarack pole shed for
hay and roughage, makes a satisfac-
tory beginning for the man of limited
means. The basement affords a com
Portable stable for the herd, and the
upper structure of the barn can be
added as needed.
In this way the total expense of
building can be more easily met. II
more than basement and shed is
needed at the outset, F. NJ White OF
the College of Agriculture suggests
that the framework, side walls and
roof be put up complete, and the in.
side work be added later. The first
consideration in building a barn under
these, or any other conditions. he
thinks, is to make it of standard width,
which is SO feet. The length may be
whatever is desired to meet the needs
of the farm.
Vernon County censor. [volume] (Viroqua, Wis.) 1865-1955, 1915-10-27

Wherever possible. It is desirable
to build the silo when the barn Is
built. The walls Of the barn may be
extended TO the sides OF the silo form
ing room in the basement for roots
and feed room on the first floor, as
well as affording protection to the silo
A good example of this extension may
be seen in the accompanying illustra-
ton.
Locating barn where IL will have
a good drainage is an important con-
sideration. While a bank barn does
save in some ways. if dark basement
results the advantages do not warrant
the sacrifice of light and drainage.
Room and convenience in handling
feeds can be secured TO a better advan-
tage by having driveway on the sec
ond floor or by the use Of elevators"
Mr.. White suggests that settlers in
new sections may find it advisable to
first put UP makeshift barn of boards
or logs. Such barn would cost the
farmer little besides his labor and viii
last until conditions are more favora-
BILE for building a permanent barn.

BUILDING PONDS IN SUMMER
Many Reasons Why Work Should Not
Be Performed in Winter or Spring,
Says Kansas Engineer.

Ponds should not be built Ia the
winter or spring. n. B. Walker. state
drainage engineer at the Kansas ag.
ricultural college. gives severaI rea
sons for his belief that it is not profit
able to make ponds at this time OF
the year. They should be made In
lhe summer or fall. he says. The
ground is naturally loose In the

u.ents that have not had time 10 set
us will be in grave danger Of being
wrshed out by the spring freshets
If smbankments are made while there
is frost IN the ground there is
chance for the water TO find a way
through when the frost melts out OF
the embankment in the spring.
A dam made in the summer or fall
usually has a much better chsace
than the one made in the spring or
winter. The rains that come at that
lime of year are not likely to be 30

but practical way to use concrete in
building a support for a metal mail
box. The post in the photograph is
rather ornamental in design, but one
that is simpler and easier to make win
serve the purpose equally well.
The post should be about seven feet
long. Planted at depth of three feet,
this would leave the box at a conven-
lent height for use. The form for max
ing a concrete post is simply three
sided box providing for a post six
inches square The form is laid on
the ground in horizontal position,
open side up, and then filled to depth
of one inch with well-tamped concrete.
Then three eighth-inch reinforcing
rods are placed at either side, leaving
about one inch space between each rod
and the side of the form. The box is
then filled to within one inch from the
top and two more reinforcing rods
are placed on the concrete. The form
is then filled to the top and the con.
crete is struck off.

although the government expects to
maintain itself by a combination of
three political groups. The social
list platform is devoted largely to an
antimilitary propaganda. The gov
eminent program includes a grain
monopoly. old age pensions and re-
strictions of almost a prohibitive char
acter on the sale of alcohol in liquor.
The Norwegian storthing unanimously
agreed on June II, 1913, to extend fe-
male suffrage so that all Norwegian
women would have the right to vote
at national elections without regard
to the amount of their income tax.
A bill passed in 1907 granted the wom-
en- of Norway the franchise to the
extent that those who paid their taxes
for the year preceding, or those whose
husbands had paid for them, were
qualified to vote at any election. This
enactment added about 100000 to the
electorate.

There is no rising hum of war talk

conversation about the war is at least
in bad form. From Norway the war
seems to have receded to a remote
distance and whatever disturbance
she feels is expressed in lower key
People in this country are most inter-

ways water power, the question of
national defense, the liberal and con-

New shipyards are to be built at
Jarlso, near Tonsberg, for the con-
struction of ships of displacement of
5000 tons or more. Most of the ships
of this size owned by Norwegians were
formerly built abroad. especially In
England. The country has been pay
ing about $4.000,00O year to foreign
shipbuilders. while the receipts of
the Norwegian shipyards have been

capital stock of the new company is

During the first part of the summer

hammer dated September says: 1--WE
have perfect summer weather nova
days. The grain is ripening and is
being cut under the most favorable
circumstances. The prospects are
far better than was thought possible
some time ago. Everything points to
a little more than average crops
There will be at least as much grain
as last year, a little less hay, but more
straw. The frost has done no dam
age. 1t seems as if Gaustad. the

country will get bumper crops of
