suction needs to be modified on windy
days and encouraged when the air is
still. There are a number of ven
tilatcr hoods that attend to the regu
lation OF these out-take flues. go that
the air in the stable may be kept in
good condition.
There are several ways Of supplying
fresh stable air from the outside The
commonest plan is to take the air in
at an opening made two or three feet
above the ground, and carry 1t up
through the outside wall and dis
charge it into the stable near the cell
ing. Another plan is to build special
window frames with N-shaped side
boxes. The window sash are hinged
at the bottom to drop in at the top.
so the air will follow up the sash and
discharge against the stable ceiling
without spilling at the sides. Both
of these plans have the same object
that is, to distribute the fresh, cold
air above the cows to prevent draft
from striking them.
Sometimes the window boxes are
made to drop the sash either in or
out to regulate the ventilation Of the
stable both winter and summer, but
such windows are difficult to make
tight. There are times when they
should be closed almost air tight. For
this reason stable windows should be
very carefully made, to shut against
solid stops.
Another plan of taking air into
stable is by means Of fue in the
bottom of the concrete feed alley.
wooden walk protects the fue and
lets the air In directly in front OF the
cows, so that their nostrils get the
first chance at it. theoretically, this
is the proper way to admit fresh air
into a well-built COW stable.
The main idea Is to build stable
as near air tight as possible. and to
admit plenty of fresh air as the COWS
need it, and to discharge the foul air
as fast as 1t accumulates.

GETS 2.CENT MONEY ORDER
Two.Cent Balance is Paid Through Ex
press Company by Kansas
Woman.

The smallest money order ever made
out by the agent for the local express
company was given to woman to pay
on an account owed to mail-order
house. according to Blackwell story
printed in the Ardmoreite. The won.
an had received letter from the mail
order house notifying her that she
owed the firm two cents. Indignant
and unable to realize the spirit that
would prompt anyone to mail blk
for two cents, the woman decided that
a post office stamp would not suffice
and that only money order would do
The fee for the order was three cents
and the postage stamp necessary 10
carry it cost two cents more. SO that
with the two-cent postage stamp that
carried the bill to the woman seven
cents was expended in collecting .
