Plan Arranged for Cow and Horse Stable.

ter piers are about foot lower than
the side walls to allow for the thick
ness Of the concrete floor. The center
piers come under the managers so that
posts supporting the floor above are
in line with the front of the COW
stalls. Especial attention is required
in building these center piers to have
the footings wide enough and deep
enough in the ground to prevent set
Ting, for there is a great NOW over
the dairy stable and there is likely
to be considerable weight up there, so
that the center piers and the support
ing posts will be under long and con-
tinuous strain. Sometimes builders do
not fully and thoroughly appreciate
the amount of weight resting on center
posts and center piers.
After the walls and the piers are fin
ished the ground is graded for the
floor. 1t is a good plan to wet the
ground thoroughly so it will settle
alike in every part of the stable. 1t is
annoying to have concrete floor
break through because the ground un-
derneath settles after the floor is laid.
1t is customary to make COW stable
ceilings little higher than formerly,
because Of the labor-saving stable ma
chinery that is now being adopted
Tracks to support feed carriers and
litter carriers are attached to the cell
ing, and about eight feet of head room
above the concrete floor is usually pro-
Vided.
A concrete stable floor is made level
endwise Of the building; crosswise, it
varies, to give the necessary slant to
the standing floor and the drop for the
cutters; also the floor behind the cows
slopes forward slightly to drain into
the cutters.

Submarines Disappearing Guns.

The Krupp gun works, in Germany,
have produced quick-firing gun de-
signed especially to provide subma-
rines with the means of destroying
aeroplanes and dirigibles This gun,
which can be fired at any angle, is
mounted on a disappearing carriage,
which sinks into a well and is auto
matically covered with a water-tight
slide when the submarine is sub.

ready for firing in 80 seconds. The
disappearing carriage is operated by
electricity. When an aeroplane or
dirigible appears overhead, the subma-

enemy, and a rapid bombardment en-.

COLORING EASTER G G

The coloring Of Eggs for Easter Is an
old, OLE custom. Anciently. the grown
ups presented these eggs to each other.
the children coming in for a share, but
in modern times these favors lave been
In this country at least, almost exclu-
sively for the children. The ease with
which these Easter eggs are now col
ored, by means of aniline dyes, de-
tracts, no doubt, from the pomp and
circumstance that attended the color
ing of these Easter favors in the days
of our grandmothers when the dyeing
was lone with logwood, indigo and
madden. Now and then a grandmother
with finer artistic sense would sew the
eggs into bits of fadable calico, from
which would be printed some rare and
radiant Dolly Warden patterns, which
were a delight to look upon. such
treasures We're often cherished in the
household, displayed in a dish on the
parlor mantelpiece for weeks and
months to be shown to visitors. that
they might marvel at grandpother's
wondrous art. And at the end of this
time, as Ahere must be an end to ev-
erything, these long kept trophies were
regretfully fed to old dog Tray, ever
faithful.
Years g it was customary in some
Sunday schools to provide great a
titles Of colored eggs for Easter to be
given to the children. 1t took no small
amount of time and care to prepare
this donation. as beside the color each
egg was to bear upon its side a brief
bible text written through the color
with a pen dipped in acid. This re-
moved the color and the letters Of the
text showed up in cleaning white.
In England, in the quaint old town
Of Chester, the Pace or Pask eggs
(from the French word Pasque for
Eastern going back almost to the time
Of William the Conqueror, We're not
forgotten. Then, as now, the egg were
boiled very hard in water colored with
red. blue or violet dyes, and inscrip-
tons We're written pom them. An old
chronicle says: Eggs were always in
such demand at hat season tina they
always rose greatly in price"-which
would indicate that the law Of supply
and demand was in full vigor even at
that early time and even without the
neretricious aid Of the storage house
and the middleman.
The same chronicle notes that bows
played with eggs as balls. for ball play
ing on Easter Monday was engaged in
by every rank; even the clergy could
not forego its delights and made this
game a part of their service. Bishops
and deans o the ball Cor egg into
the church and at the beginning Of the
antiphone began to dance, throwing it
to the choristers. who handed it to each
other during the time Of the dancing
