shoats can be kept in them for fatten-
ing during the winter. These shoats
should be nearly the same size or
they may pile up and smother the
smaller ones. II more than four or
five are placed in a pen, the same
thing may happen, even IL the shoats
are almost of the same size.
The feeding and litter alley runs
through the center of the house
lengthwise between the two rows of
pens. Very often a litter carrier is
installed. though it is not as necessary
as in dairy barn. Along each row Of
pens is gutter, and the concrete
floors of the pens are sloped slightly
so that they can be easily washed out.
1t Is not absolutely necessary to have
the floors on slant, as the pens are
swept out very often. anyway.
The partitions between the pens is
almost always made of tight boards
so that each pen will be easier to
keep warm. II hog wire is used it

houses. as they are very dangerous
to hogs of all kinds. 1t is also es-
sential that ventilation be provided.
One of the side windows can be left
slightly open at the top and the foul
air will be drawn off by the ventilator
on the roof.
AS the most likely place to develop
drafts is along the stills, they are made
very carefully. They are imbedded in
fresh cement mortar and the mortar
is troweled against them on both the
inside and the outside. The concrete
foundation walls are carried up IS
inches above grade so that no drafts
will be caused along the ground.

This waist requires very little more

other, but the beautiful needlework in
it makes 1t bring a stiff price. And
the initiated who are able to crafty
their cultivated and expensive taste
pay something like forty dollars for 1t.

when they are getting no exercise.
Sunshine is provided In all parts OF
the house by the windows on the roof.
This side of the roof is faced toward
the south, and the sunshine is admit
ted to both the front and the back of
the pens by the two rows of windows.
The windows along the side also help
in bringing plenty Of sunshine into
the house.
All the windows are made In the
same way. They have a galvanized
iron frame and the sash Is also made
of the same material. This makes a
strong, substantial window that can

The foundation and the floor of the

the pens is placed a movable floor that
is made of planks. A concrete floor
is too cold for hogs to sleep on 1t.
The planks can be readily taken out
of the way when the floor is to be
cleaned. The plank floor is held up
from the concrete by another plank

Now is the time to think of new
spring and summer. Already the ad-
vance models for the coming season
are shown in variety so great that 1t
bewilders the thrifty buyer who as
.pires to making an early selection.
To go about this in the right way it Is
necessary to classify each blouse &C
cording to its character. and that is
determined by the use to which 1t Is
to be put. The new offerings show
the shirt waist, the sport shirt. the
demidress, and the dressy blouse, and
all of them developed in any one, or
two, of dozen materials.

nation of two fabrics is plentifully
shown in blouses as in dresses, among
the semidress and dressy models.
High necks and low necks are almost
equally In evidence, so that there is
a choice of styles. and many dressy
blouses and a few shirt waists fasten
in the back.
Two beautiful models for dressy
wear are shown in the picture. and
they are representative styles. The
