REAL ACTIVITY

Real activity Is displayed through
out this county and especially was
this true during last week when so
many kinds Of harvests were on. All
along the line from Olney Springs to
Sugar City beets were being harvested
and the beet dumps in operation.
Third cutting OF alfalfa was on and
l'Ay was going into stack while others
we're hauling to the mill for grinding.
Cantaluupes we're still being picked
and loads OF melons were leaving the
fields for shipping stations. Apples
we're being picked 10 the several large
orchards about Olney Springs, and
King Center and other and varied
crops we're being harvested. At Sug-
ut City the refinery had started its
long sugar making campaign while at
Ordway hay grinding which was COM
menced several weeks ago was still In
progress and will be for the next
several weeks to come.
In Olney Springs fine new school
building is being completed. and a
two-story bank building is likewise
about completed. In Crowley new
store building is almost ready for oc-
cupancy and new residents are going
up. In the Numa district the new
modern brick school building is well
along while at both Ordway and Sug-
ar City new residences are being
built and improvements of various
kinds are being made on the farms all
over the county.

There are plenty of dairymen who
object to having hay stored over the
dairy cows, because Of the dust that
floats everywhere through the stable
when the hay is transferred from the
NOW to the cows at feeding time.
Because the storage barn Is placed
at one end of the COW stable, the silo
is built at the side because at least
one end Of the stable should have a
free connection with the open barn
yard.
While this arrangement is some
what unusual, there is really no OBJ
lection to putting silo at the side
of the stable, because the distance to
travel at feeding time is about the
same.
Always in placing buildings 1t is a
good plan to figure the distance to
travel in doing the work. A few feet

Sergt. Max Schwertfeger, attached

says the Frankfort correspondence Of
the Associated Press. offers remark
able evidence Of the fact that the
power Of poetry Is not on the wane.
When, recently. he broke into verse In
an appeal for dainties to vary the mo-
notony Of military fare, the poem,
which was published in a local paper.
prompted such number OF contribu-
tons of packages and boxes Of delica-
lessen that Sergeant Schwertfeger
was fairly swamped with them. BY
the time of the kaiser's birthday. jan
uary 26, he had received 1.027 bundles,
containing so many varied eatables
that he was able to share them with
about thousand members of his bat
talon.
When, however. the stream showed
no signs of stopping he was obliged to
appeal once again. this time asking
that the dainties be sent to other SOL
diers on other battle fronts.

horses, and the space In front OF the
horses is intended for storage of a
few vehicles. In fact, the large barn
has a general-purpose floor that may
be utilized in good many different
ways. 1t is a threshing floor once q
year.
The COW stable. however, is intend
ed for the production Of large quanti-
ties of pure milk so that no other
business can be tolerated inside Of
this modern dairy stable.
Outside OF the main stable is q
corn crib SO by 10 feet The inside
and ends of the crib are made as
open to the atmosphere as possible
by using open work metal sides. It
is a little cheaper to build crib In
this way. because there is saving in
material. There must be an air space
between the corn and the solid board
ing of the barn. This space may be
secured by placing the open metal
siding on Turing strips to hold the
corn away from the solid boarding Of
the barn.
The foundation of the corn crib is
concrete, which is the only satisfac-
tory material for the foundation Of
any farm building. There is no OBJ
lection to working in stone where
stone Is plentiful. but there should be
enough concrete to fill all the voids.
The only way to control rats and mice
on farm is to build concrete founda-
tions and concrete floors. Rats will
dig around q stone wall and they are
very much at home among loose
stones. but they hate concrete.

Immediately increases the pressure Of
population on the means OF subsist-
ence. and the pressure cannot be en-
tirely removed until the normal num-
