Side Section Of Concrete Smokehouse.
This should be fireproof building
The accompanying figure. furnished by
the North Dakota Agricultural college,
shows the side section of a concrete
structure that is about the right size
for the average farm. This house also
is suitable for storing meat. 1t is cool
and sanitary. Ii good lock and bur-
glar alarm are put on the door the
meat will be comparatively safe from
thieves.
The fire box is placed on the outside
of the building for convenience in
controlling and repienishing the fire
and smoke There is little danger
of the meat overheating with this ar
rangement This house will cost about
$65 with cement at so cents hundred
and lumber at $50 a thousand. This
does not include the labor of construc-
ton Here is the bill of material:

WELL-TILLED FARM Is BEST
Ii is Not Number so Much as Quality
and Care Given That Combine to
Bring in Net Results.

A few sheep, a small herd of COWS,
one or two good brood sows, a flock
of Plymouth Rocks or Wyandotte
hens, aqd few turkeys. on a small
farm, we'll cared for, will bring bet
ter net results than large fiocks, big
herds and big droves. 1t is not the
number so much as the quality and
results; some men think they must
have a big farm to make anything;
such men often make out of pocket.
There is economy in working as much
land and growing as many crops as
can be well taken care of, but there
is no economy in attempting more
than can be we'll done.
veteran farmer used to say that
he planned his work in the winter
so that he would have under cultiva-
ton just what could be thoroughly
worked with his regular help, and he
was usually able to get his work done
at the proper time, and was not
obliged to slight his work. And he
generally managed to have as good
crops as any of his neighbors and
he did not work hard, either. If farm
ers would but take lesson from this.
break up less land and spend more
time in thoroughly fitting it for the
crop they would have time to cultivate
it more thoroughly and TO harvest it
in proper condition and attain larger
crops from the small area than they
do from the larger.

but this is not to be recommended
except in extreme cases.
During the late summer and early
autumn the flock owner should not de-
pend too much upon natural pasture.
At this time of year it is impossible
to produce good pasture of any kind
unless preparations have been made
early in the season by sowing forage
crops.
With good pasture and forage crops
and the addition of very little grain
food, the ewes can be kept in a Wig
orous, flesh-forming condition until the
mating period arrives.

CURING MEAT FOR HOME USE

Properly Designed Smokehouse-
II Should BE Fireproof.

Why pay % cents a pound for
smoked meats when you can smoke

or maple wood or a few cobs? Not
many years ago when most farmers
knew how to butcher and cure meats
few OF them were without a smoke
house and a meat storing room OF
some kind. writes Leah Ruth Lippin-
colt in Farmers Mail and Breeze. The
development of the centralized plant

Professor Henry in his book "Faeds
and Feeding also says that the Cop
enhagen station found 40e pounds OF
cooked potatoes equal TO 100 pounds
of mixed grains for swine. Since
corn has somewhat higher feeding
value than the grains used in this test.

1t will he interesting to have Fritz
Norris and Jim Davis, the stone-roaos
experts, explain how they are going
to get the water for their ten mile
stretches of concrete roads; IT takes
water to mix concrete; it would have
to be piped or wells dug along the
way at intervals. There are some
places where these paper road makers
would find it pretty hard to get water
How much would it cost anyway to
pipe the water or dig the wells per
mile? Let's have an estimate from the
Pat Murphy commission. = Webster
City Herald.
The Better Roads Commission
should leave strictly engineering prob
lens to the civil engineers who Will
be employed by the community when
wishes to undertake road paving. 1t
is the commissions business to inform
a legislature what legislatures have
done in other states to make it possible
for the voters of any community to
build the kind of roads they want.
For the sake of informing the ex-
legislator of the Herald who has been
"agin" about everything that has been
proposed for the benefit of society
within recent years it may be said
that somebody found water for con-
crete road between Mason City and
Clear Lake Somebody found it for
ninety miles out OF Milwaukee. for 100
miles out of Detroit They have found
it in California for concrete roads
across the desert frequently fifty miles
Minnesota, Texas. Louisiana, Arkan-
sas, Illinois Indiana, Ohio, and in ev-
cry state east of Ohio. In most cases
it is pumped by the contractors gaso-
lene engine thru pipes laid alongside
of the work but In many cases it is
hauled in the same manner in which
water is hauled for threshing engine.
1t costs about $500 to drive we'll in
