COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject of building work on the farm, for
the readers of this paper. On account of
his wide experience as Editor. Author and
Manufacturer he is. without doubt. the
highest authority on all these subjects
Address all inquiries to William A. Rad
ford, No. 1897 Prairie avenue, Chicago,
ILL.,. and only inclose two-cent stamp for

On the small farm there is special
need Of furnishing housing for the live
stock, machinery and other objects
which require shelter with as few
buildings as possible. This requires
the combination of several buildings
into one building, or rather the use of
one building for several purposes. This
practice saves great deal of space
and makes the farm more convenient
than 1t would be If larger number
of small buildings were used, to say
nothing of the saving in construction
cost.
In eliminating some of the unneces-
sary small buildings, the saving is
available to improve the quality of the
larger barn. A type of construction
must be selected which will furnish
maximum capacity barn from mini
mum quantity of lumber. Recent i'm
provements in barn design have been
directed largely in the field of lighter
construction which provides strength
equal to that of the heavier barns
from very much reduced sizes of lum-
Der. This type of construction is now
applied to the larger barns, but its adj
vantage is even more marked in the
case of smaller barns because of the
fact that it furnishes an increased
barn volume at the same cost as that
of heavy timber construction.
The most noticeable difference in the
new type, as compared with the older
type of construction, is found in the
roof design. The plank frame con-
struction, as this improved system is
called, involves the use of a number
of sets of light, trussed rafters SPAN

There is only one ronrrivab" reason for rl. har
Dor boards action in allowing the menace of Ger
man refugee steamers in port to continue-thAl the
board has received advicp> from federal authorities
not to move the ships outside the harlor.
Chairman Forbes of the hoard denies that tn" ter
rtOrial officials are acting under the advice of
"higher-ups' who I'm turn in communication
with Washington, but there is no other logical OK
PLANTATION for the recent actions Of the board which
first ordered the ships To moveand then rcscinded
the order, if the half admissions which come from
executive sessions constitute the truth.
Public sentiment here is absolutely against allow,
ing these ships 10 remain at their piers. What hap
pened on Sunday of vivid memory not long ago
what happened at Charleston in the sinking Of the
Iebenfes; what happened at Boston in the disabling
OF the krOnprnzessin Cecilie-alI this is merely a
forecast of what may happen should the United
States and Germany go 60 There is no need
to go into details. Every thinking American must
realize the danger to Honolulu harbor to wlralvrS
and to adjacent shipping.
Recent events have shown that the administration
at WaShngtOn--though decisive enough in Scvering
diplomatic relations with Germany-iS strangely
slow make the decisive step of taking hold of Ger
man property in t. =. jurisdiction. The Develop
ments here in the release of the German crews indi,
mans every freedom. That has already gone to the
extent of endangering American lives and property.
What is behind the Administrations attitude is
something at which can only guess And guess
ing at inserutabe reasons is not comforting while
there continues in this port absolute menace
Bonding the ships does not meet the situation in
reassuringath he public. So long as the ships remain
in their slips with German crews. where they may
be sunk or blown up they remain peril 10 the port
Possibly the explanation of it all is that Uncle
Sam is not ready or4actual war and realizes that
seizure of German refugee ships now probably means
war. Possibly the are other problems. unknown to
the public, giving the administration grave concern
like the German Mexican plot-held for 80 days by
Mr.. Wilson until it WAS made known to the Amer.
lean people. There may b" very good reasons why
Washington does not want the local authorities TO
take the action with this local menace which ordn-
airy prudence and precauiOn counselS.
Certainly The harbOr board entirely of it's own
Initiative has not decided on this latest policy We
give the members credit for more realization of the
danger than that
