Manager Patrick Moran of the Phil
adelphia Nationals, regardless of the
standing of his team at the finish of
the present season, has achieved a
reputation as leader.
With seemingly mediocre organiza-
ton that previous to the opening of
the league season was destined by
critics and expert writer's to furnish q
sorry exhibition for the National cir
cult fans, the team has proved the SEN
sation of the new baseball year. SEN
sations of this sort in baseball are per-
haps in measure largely accountable
for its gripping interest.
Moran now parades a team accred-
tied by critics as having the best pitch
er in Grover Cleveland Alexander, in
the National league, the best defensive
infield that has represented the Phil
lies in years, one of the greatest first
basemen in Luderus, and in Cactus

The old axiom that the race is not

year ago the Pittsburgh Pirates were

having won fifteen of the first seven
teen games played, the Boston Braves
trailing far behind, with three victor
les in thirteen games. Six months
later, however, the Braves had been

winners, but the worlds champions,
and the erstwhile league-leading
Pirates had finished one of their most
disastrous seasons in seventh place.

ward. 1t Is thought that an opening
like this induces ventilation better,
and it certainly gives more protection
to the corn.
This building adds good deal to
the appearance of the farm, because
it is 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, twostory 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 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
it 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 fcyeral times to get the
air through 1t, to prevent spelling.
There are many advantages in a
two-story corn crib and grain house
that is properly fitted with modern ma
chipAry to handle grain

at the sides are made of lighter mate
rial.
The center driveway is ten feet in
width, and the grain bin6 above occupy
the same amount OF floor space This
center driveway has solid concrete
floor made with a smooth, hard sur
face for easy shoveling and sweep
Ing.
For the easy handling of grain for
cleaning and grading purposes, the
tanning mill is placed on this floor,
where it is driven by belt from the
power, and the grain is spouted to 1t
from the different bins, so it may be
cleaned and graded and returned to
the bins without the use of shovel.
The grain spouts conduct the grain
to the tanning mill, and the elevating
machinery carries it back. Farmers
in this way make good grade of
wheat that is acceptable without dock
ing at the railway elevators, and at
the same time they select out a small
percentage of the largest and plump
est grains to save for seed. Such seed
is worth double, or possibly ten times
the market price, and the extra value
is secured at almost no expense.
The corn crib wings built at the
sides are eight feet wide and &c feet
in height. The building is made long

of humidity in the air in the fall varies
in the different farming sections, but
it is good plan to provide crib that
will give the greatest amount of ven
tilation possible to secure at reason
able cost.
Ventilation in a two-story 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 beyeled edges so placed

visits to this country, one of them

an Italian warship when he was eight
cen years old. He became so inter-
