convention for Theodore Roosevelt.
has dug his own political grave. As
the Fort Dodge man took his seat after
his failure, shouts and groans were
heard from all parts of the hall.
The attempt came just after the
COMMITTEES on resolutions reported,
strongly endorsing Senator A. b. Cum
Minis candidacy for president. No SOON

Mr.. Healy walked rapidly down the
aisle to the platform, where Permanent
Chairman Charles T. Pickett of Wa

Healy began his speech with plea
for harmony and declared Iowa repub-
licans were proud of Cummins and his
record. He asserted he had long been
a trusted Cummins lieutenant. ag-

Immediately a storm Of Kisses of

Healy's effort to create dissension

declared they were greatly surprised

grave.

is a substantial looking farm barn OF
small size designed in accordance with
most approved practice IN farm-build-
ing architecture. 1t is 80 feet by %
feet in size on the ground, and the
roof reaches up high enough to make
a gOod-sized NOW over the stable.
The concrete foundation is built up
above the level Of the barnyard about
Is inches to protect the sills of the
building from moisture. The sill of
the wooden building is laid in soft con-
crete mortar on top of the foundation
wall, and anchor bolts tie the sill firm
~ to the concrete.
The floor over the cow stable and
horse stable is made in the usual way,
except that the joists are tied together
at the ends and spiked into the stud
ding at the sides to tie the building to-
gether. The timbers are all light and
are put together on the plank frame
construction plan, so that the trussed
crossties help materially in making
solid building.
The shape of the roof also strength
ems the building, so that even though
the timbers are light the structure is
very strong.
There is one central feed alley,
which serves the horses on one side
and the cows on the other, a plan
which saves a great many steps at
feeding time.
Dutch doors are provided SO that
the upper parts of the doors may be
left open for ventilation.
The horse stalls are made to use as
double stalls when necessary. There
is door which makes the standing
double stall into box stall when this
is an advantage. The box stall with
the outside door is convenient for a
mare and foal, since they can run out
into the yard and come back to the
stable at feeding time and at night.
Box stalls are convenient in all barns
where live stock is stabbed.
An interesting feature of the plan
is the hay door. 1t is made ten feet in
width and is hung with weights like
window sash, so that it may be
moved up or down and left in any po-
sition wanted. In summer time while
the NOW is being filed and for some
time after, this door is pulled down to
the full opening. Afterwards it may
be partially closed until the hay is
done sweating.
The weights move up and down in
boxes at the sides of the studding. A
raceway little longer than the height
of the door is necessary to allow for
the stretch of the cord.

common in different parts of the coun-

Uric Acid Poisoning :?

The most eminent physicians recog-
nize that uric acid stored up in the
system is the cause of rheumatism,
that this uric acid poison is present in
the joints, muscles, or nerves. By ex-
perimenting and analysis at the In
valids' Hotel and Surgical Institute in
Buffalo, N. Y, DIR. Pierce discovered a
combination Of native remedies that he
called Anuric which drives out the
uric acid from the system, and in this
way the pain, swelling and infamma-
ton subside. IF you are sufferer from
rheumatism, backache. pains here or
there, you can obtain Anuric at any
drug store and get relief from the
pains and ills brought about by uric
acid; or send DR.. Pierce 1Oc for trial
pkg. Anuric which you will find many
times more potent than lithia and
eliminates uric acid as hot water melts
sugar. A short trial will convince yow.

There is no reason why the small
farm should not have buildings of as
high quality as those of the larger
farms. There is little saving realized
in the long run when cheap, poorly
constructed buildings are placed on a
farm of any size. Small buildings may
be constructed with just as careful re
gard for the latest ideas in farm
building construction as the larger
structures. In order that barn shall
follow the latest practice in farm-build-
ing design it must be provided with a
large number of windows which will
allow the sunlight to penetrate every
corner, and there must be system of
scientific ventilation to insure the
health of live stock kept in the barn
and prevent the formation of condi-
tons resulting in an increased fire
risk.
The permanence of a barn is depend
ent very largely upon it's foundation.
When the structure is given good
coat of paint at regular intervals and
no accident occurs which weakens it at
any point, the only rapid deterioration
which is likely to occur is the rotting
of timbers kept moist by an improper
reconstructed foundation system. Con

Recitation Was Rendered.

Sir Charles Wyndham, the actor, was
once asked to exploit certain recite'

pose, at which Gladstone was present..
It was a terribly hot afternoon, and
the ~reciter announced that he would

After the recital Sir Charles went
to Gladstone and said, "I'm afraid
you've had trying time with all this
heat?"
'Not at all" was the reply. 81 have
had a charming afternoon. / thank
you for asking me, and now as | am
quite refreshed l can run back TO the
house."
Sir Charles was elated, for the rath-
er heavy Elaine" had been a success
after all. He rushed to the stage,
where he found his guests waiting for
him and for tea.
"What have we done to you," they
cried, ito give us Elaine on day like
this? Surely there was something
lighter to choose
"Lighter!" echoed Sir Charles.

The strength comes from the num-
Der, shape and construction of the
trusses. Each pair of rafters forms a
truss which reaches from one sill to
the other. The roof boards are firm

that the Whole roof is as strong as if
it were in one piece. 1t is strongly
