First to Pick Miss Rankin
As the Hope of Women

Then this suffrage thing came up.
Miss Belle, it is said, was the first to
divine hat Miss Rankin, already a
suffrage leader of national repute,
could be put over. Miss Belle also di-
vined that the only hope for Miss Ran
kin in the primaries of August 90 was
to run as a dry candidate and thus
corral all the dry vote, few of the men
candidates for congress having the
nerve to come out for prohibition.
Miss Rankin, as all the world knows,
led her ticket.
A state bureau was established and
Miss F1igelmann put in charge. From
the day she put her pretty little feet
under a desk, she had the printers and
pressmen down at the national print
shop in Washington, where they make
postage stamps, working overtime;

Is therefore an ideal floor in all parts
of the barn except In the horse stalls,
where the hard surface is objection

other floor may be laid over the con-

the opposite side is given over to the

horses in the single stalls, and n box
stall is furnished to provide space for
an animal which requires individual
attention. A harness room Is built
handy TO the horse stalls.
There Is n small grain room and a
space for wagons or implements, with
n convenient doorway 10 feet wide.
The concrete floor in the implement
room is an advantage since 1t keeps
the wheels of the implements in the

height, measured from the kaymow

The NOW may be filled easily and
quickly by means Of a horse fork
which operates from the projection at
the front end Of the barn.
The hay-carrier track is suspended
from the short collar beam close up

is one of the new varieties that work
so easily and freely that the oldtime
horse-fork troubles are forgotten. The
car rolls out on the track projection,

by the light trussed rafters and thus
the greatest difficulty in construction
has been eliminated.
With the improvements in barn con-
struction there have been other notice
able developments during recent years.
Problems of ventilation and lighting
have been given serious consideration,
with the result that modern barns,
from the smallest to the largest, are
being equipped with efficient ventila-
ton systems and more and larger win
dows. Devices which save time and
energy have been placed on the mar
ket and are being used to help the
farmer reduce the tedious part of his
work TO a minimum. The changes of
recent years have even affected the
manner of finishing barns. The use
of red paint in barn finish which al
most became habit not long ago, is
slowly giving way to less conspicuous
and more artistic methods Of finishing.
Barns painted light gray with white
trim, pure white with light-tinted
roofs, and in many other pleasing
ways, are now quite common through
out the country.

U. S. NITRATE DEPOSITS
ARE DECLARED WORTHLESS
Uncle Sam Must Look Elsewhere for
Supply in Case Of War, Govern
ment Experts Declare.

Uncle Sam must look elsewhere
than within the borders Of the United
States for an adequate supply of nj
trate deposits. The announcement has
been made by the United States geo.
detic survey that the nitrate deposits
in this country are practically worth
less from the standpoint Of practical
utilization.
This judgment, officially arrived at
by government experts, means that,
If the United States should go to war,
1t must either depend upon the nitrate
industry of Chile for the raw product
from which to obtain nitric acid for
the manufacture Of its powder, or
must, as Germany has done, erect nj
trate plants for the fxation Of at
nospheric nitrogen.
