buckets that work in a leg which
stands vertical Some of these ma
chimes require that a 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
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
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 overall times to get the
air through it, to prevent spelling.
There are many advantages in a
two-story corn crib and grain house
that is properly fitted with modern ma
chinery to handle grain.

What an incentive to industry gold
is! The old government assay oilce
in Wall street was torn down to the
very last brick more than week ago
and everything to the very last brick
was carted away.
Still the runners of the banks and
brokerage houses hang around the eA-
cavation and from time to time scrape
together a handful of dirt in the hope
that they may find some little nice
1S-k dust.
All the planking in the old assay
office has been burned and whatever
the ashes showed in gold is part OF
the records of the Office.
The belief that the smoke from the
furnaces going up the old chimney
left a deposit of gold on some Of the

First Floor Plan.

enough to accommodate the amount of
corn and small grains grown on the
farm.
The corn crib wings are built con-
siderably lighter than the main por-
tion Of the building, for the reason that
corn in the ear is lighter than wheat,
and Is less liquid than smaller grains,
so that the pressure on the sides is
less.
Also the construction of the middle
part of the building is necessarily
stronger to support the grain bins
overhead The size of timbers may be
estimated by figuring the weight of
wheat, which is 40 pounds per cubic
foot. The outward pressure is practi-
cally the same as the pressure down
ward at the same depth, down from
the top. A cubic feet of wheat weighs
40 pounds. The weight of one cubic
foot of wheat on top of another is 9S
pounds, and the pressure on the ,loor
of bin when the wheat is ten feet
deep is 400 pounds per square foot.
If the joists are placed foot apart
and the bin is the same width as the
driveway, then the weight on each
1dst would be 1900 pounds, and the
pressure outward on the studding
would be practically the same at the
floor. The pressure outward on the
bin fiye feet down from the top,

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 a 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 a shovel.
The grain spouts conduct the grain
to the tanning mill, and the elevating
machinery carries it back Farmers
in this way make a good grade of
wheat that is cceptable without dock
ing at the railway elevators, and at
the same time they select out 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.

sides are eight feet wide and 26 feet
