tlon Ward, which he frequently does there are al
ways many questions to answer and heartaches to
soothe.
Late one afternoon last October Doctor Howe,
Wnlle going around the station on one of these
tours OF investigation, noticed middleaged wom-
an, OF neat, motherly appearance, with two pretty
little girls cuddling up to her. sitting In the deten-
ton room. AS the hour was late and he thought
they were visitors Doctor Howe inquired what they
were waiting for and If he could do anything for
them
The woman explained that she was British and
with her children had been ordered deported. They
had arrived from Great Britain about month be-
fore, but had no friends in this country and no
money and, therefore, had not been allowed to
enter.
The healthy appearance of the two children, their
pretty faces and their evident good breeding won
over the commissioner on the spot, and he immedi-
ately interested himself in their case
The womans name was Mrs. Rita Horner and
her story was this: when the war broke out she
was living with her family, which, besides her hus
band, consisted of two sons and three daughters,
on dairy farm some miles out of Capetown, South
Africa The country about them was rugged and
wild and the girls, despite their young years.
forced to walk many miles every day to attend
school. The sons, who were older, helped to work
the farm.
"The husband and the two boys, along with most
of the able-bodied in that section enlisted in
the British army after was declared and
were sent to the front. They took part in the
fighting in Belgium and northern France. One
was killed and the father seriously wounded. All
trace of the other son had been lost. Mrs Horner
unable to work the farm by herself, SO she
raised what money she could and went to England
with her three daughters-Una, fifteen years; Pir
ten years old, and Rita, nine years old. They
had not been in England long when Mrs. Homer
decided to come to America"
On hearing Mrs. Horners story Doctor Howe
communicated with the authorities at Washington
He explained that these people were all strong
and healthy, that the children were beautiful and
that there was no danger of them becoming a pub
lie charge Furthermore, he announced his willing
ness to be responsible for them, and a few days
after the machinery had been set in motion word
came back from Washington that Mrs. Horner and
her children would be released in his custody.
Meantime the family had made friends with near
ly everybody on the island. The Waterman and
guards petted the children and gave them many
little presents. The attendants did all they could
TO make them comfortable
Despite these attentions the children sometimes

the chances for a healthful condition
Of the live stock. At the same time it
is very much easier to keep a sunny
stable clean. Cleanliness is being rec
ognized as one of the most important
features in connection with the raising
of well-bred live stock.
For the large-farm owner who takes
pride in a few exceptionally well-bred
animals or who has few animals that
are used for the personal convenience
and comfort of the family, this type Of
barn furnishes an excellent means to
give these favored servants the best of
care. The storage room available is
also helping factor in the careful
management of the farm, since this
space may be used for materials which
do not rightly belong in confusion
with the other various articles which
are necessary part of every farm
equipment.
For the small-farm owner who
wishes to have as large capacity in
his barn as possible but who cannot
afford to give up the space necessary
to build large barn, this little big
barn offers solution not only salts
factory in this respect, but at the same
time it furnishes him with barn
which is up to the latest standards of
barn construction.

above the floor at the cow stable end
Of the barn, which allows about eight
feet of headroom in the cow stable.
This is an ample amount of headroom
for the COW stall end of the barn and
insures good ventilation. HeadrOOm is
not of as great Importance in the cow
stalls as it is in the horse stalls, so
long as the ventilation is not impaired
The height of ceiling in the horse
stable end of the barn may be regu-
lated by the size and character of the
horses, but since the average man cam
not reach great deal more than eight
feet to put a bride on high-headed
horse, this amount is usually deemed
a sufficient height for headroom in a
horse stall.
The floor all over the barn is made
level and smooth except in the manger,
gutter and standing floor part of the
COW stable. Extra planks are used in
the horse stable to give the floor the
necessary slant, and they also keep the
horses off the hard concrete. In the
center of the barn is the driveway,
which will probably be given severe
service. To take this into account the
floor in this section should be made
of very tough and enduring concrete.
The horse and COW stables are both
partitioned off from the driveway, SO
that they are entirely separate and re-
moved from one another. The drive
way is open to the roof in the center,
but it is foored over at the sides Of
the barn IA feet up from the floor to
continue the NOW space to hold as
much hay and other material as pos
sible. This driveway may be used for
various purposes, depending on the
type of farming and whether the barn
is being used as the main barn of a
small farm or as an auxiliary barn on
a larger farm. ID
One thing which recommends this
barn very strongly is the large number
of windows. Abundant light is fur.
nished from all sides, the Importance
Of which is gaining more and more rec
ognition as the Investigation of SAM
tary conditions is carried on. The ex-
pense of including the large number
of windows is very slight and the adj
vantages of furnishing plenty of light
are many. In the first place light,
airy stable cannot help but increase
