Highway Department is endeav-
oring to forestall the usual rush
of applications at the end of each

nearly all of the licenses before

What a Crack Will Do.

Everybody knows that it hurts
neither a human being nor any
farm animal to sleep in cold air
if there is no movement of the
air called a draft. To produce a
draft there must be two OPEN
ings, and everybody knows that
a draft will cause colds-wheth-
er in human beings, or in swine,
poultry, or other farm animals.
Nothing prod a draft so well
as little cracks in the foor-or
near the floor-of hogpens. They
act exactly as front dampers to a
stove. We speak advisedly when
we state that a little crack like
mentioned, which would co t
perhaps, a cent to repair, will
necessitate the feeding Of sever
al more bushels of corn to make
hogs in winter as fat as they
would have been without the
cracks. This is not 'foolishness'
1t is sound doctrine, proven by
many experiments. Let poultry
and hogs have fresh air, but be
sure that it comes from above
them-not up through the bed
ding, where, if there is a crack,
cold air will enter by reason Of
the body heat rising as in a flue.
