PEACOCK WAYS.

"Mr, and Mrs. Peacock" said Dad

just as if they owned the whole world,
or at least the whole barnyard.
"'Good morning, Mr.. and Mrs. Pea
COCK gobbled Mr.. Turkey.
Good morning. said Mr.. and Mrs.
Peacock at the same time, as they
waved their beautiful tails as much as
to say, 'Ah, how good it is of US to
speak to you all. We are so hand.

"'Cluck, cluck, cackle, cackle,' said
the hens.
''Mr. and Mrs. Peacock answered
just as politely, and with just the
same fine manner.
Were having a grain party SAID
the turkeys. DO you want to comeY
No, thank you,' said Mr.. Peacock.
We have another engagement
"'And pray what is it?' asked Mr..
Gobble Turkey.
4" I would hardly say that it was po-
lite of you to ask answered Mrs. Pea
cock, holding her head high in the air.
"'Oh, dear; oh, DEAR gobbled Mr..
Turkey. AREN'T we handsome, though
and oh. so snobbish We hate to speak
to others, don't we? Well, look at
your feet then! Ha, ha, g0bble, COB
ble' And how Mr.. Gobble Turkey
| laughed.
"For the peacocks dropped their
| beautiful tails and hung their heads
in shame. Their feet are so ugly and
they are so ashamed of them. When
any creature speaks of their feet they
will hang their heads and their spread
out tails will drop.
'Of course it was rather mean of
Mr.. Gobble Turkey to speak in such
a way to the peacocks, but then he
was very angry at them for being so
rude to him when he had asked SIM
pie question.
"He was used to barnyard ways
where no one minds what anyone else
is doing and where there are not silly,
snobbish ways.
"And also he very much suspected
the peacocks of something, and so he
persisted in his question. But they
hurried away.
"'And I invited them so nicely to my
grain party he said. OF course, a

grain foods at them

or else that she has stolen one,' said
Mr.. Gobble Turkey slowly.
"'Who and what are you talking
aboutY asked the other animals. You
were just having little fight with the
peacocks and then you were talking
about your grain party and suddenly
you begin and talk so that we cannot
understand what you say
"fYou know said Mr.. Gobble Tur-
key, that the peacocks do not care at
all about building their own homes or
their own nests. No, they are very
lazy. And they do not take any pride
in the fact that they make their own
home. They would rather someone
else did the work, and they just take
a home that they can find easily. Yes
I do believe
"'What? interrupted the other ami.
mails. You mean you think that the
peacocks have stolen nest and have
hurried off to the long grass with it?

homes. And peacocks will always be
the same-I suppose-always.

Of Course They Would.

Election time was drawing near and
an enthusiastic politician was address
ing his constituents in frenzied
speech. Not a few Of his assertions,
reduced to cold thought, were diamet-
rically opposed to one another, but
each proposal was received with ap-
plause. A judge turned to his COM
panion and said: This reminds me OF
the Irish leader who was cheering his
men on to battle. Min" said he, 'ye
are on the VERDE of battle, an want
to ask We before We start, will yez
fight or will yez run?'
"We wfll," came a chorus of eager
replies.
(which will yez do?" says he.
'sWe will not" says they.
"Aha, thank ye, me min," says he.
ST thought We would" d."-Philadelphia

extending the feed carrier track into
the horse stable. AS rule, the horse
stable in the combination barn will be
smaller than the COW stable. so that
if the grain feed is stored, say, near
the partition between the two parts
of the barn, it would probably be IN
necessary to install feed carrier equip
ment in the horse stable.
1t is of primary importance that the
COW stable be given special attention,
with the object of assuring the best
possible sanitary conditions, which in
fers that lighting and ventilation must
be carefully treated. It is assumed
that at least a part of the animals
housed in the barn will be dairy cows,
and it is for this reason that the re-
quirements just named are so neces-
sary. Indeed, it is a far-sighted pre-
caution to provide the best there is in
lighting and ventilation in any barn
in which animals of any kind are
housed, for the money spent in this
way is returned many times in the
improved health of the animals, which
means higher sale value, and in the
greater ease with which the work in
the barn may be done. The secret Of
maintaining good, clean air in the
stables is of course, in removing the
animal waste as quickly as possible.
Even extra effort in this direction,
however, cannot accomplish success
full results if advantage is not taken
of the germ-destroying action of sun
| light and if an effort is not made to
! quickly remove what polluted air must
| of necessity be circulated through
the stable due to contact with pollut-
ing agents necessarily present tempo
rarily, and to remove the spent air
coming from the lungs of the animals.
These things have to be mentioned as
having special bearing on the dairy
COW stable. There are two good rea-
sons why the horse stable should be
taken care of just as effectively. The

Now, Danny O'Toole had known
ever since he was old enough to know
anything that his father had left him

Danny was baby, to come to Amer

"The man on the far side, him with

Danny, knowing only one way to at

"Redheadl" with oil the power of his
little lungs. The man heard him and,
turning his head, saw kid on a lamp
post waving his hat at him. Then,
lowering his eyes, he saw his wife
looking In his direction. Leaving the
ranks, he came across the street, ell
bowed his way through the crowd to
his Wife and she fell into his arms.
Meanwhile, Danny. seeing that he
was not getting his share on this fam.

ther with one leg on each shoulder
His fnther pulled him down into his

ton barn arranged in the manner de-
scribed, the litter carrier track would
be extended through from one end of
the barn to the other, and possibly
out of the barn at one end to the
manure pile or, better still, to the
manure spreader, if it is possible to
dispose of the manure as fast as the
spreader is filled. Whether or not the
feed carrier track would be extended
into the horse stable would depend
upon the method of storing the feed
in the barn. In case all of the grain
feed is stored at the end of the barn re-
mote from the horse stable, as. it
might be if the silos were located at
this point and the feed mixing room
and feed rooms were partitiOned off
from the stable, so that dust would
not be carried into the atmosphere in
the stable, there would be cause for

Moft in Dancer Oft in wne "

That soldierly hymn, "Oft in Dan
ger, Oft in Vice." was actually written
by a boy and girl who never saw one
another. The boy was poor Henry
K1rke White, who died before he
reached manhood, and the girl was
Frances Fuller-Maitland. The fact is
that when the boy-poet died the little
girl was not born. Exactly when
Kirke White wrote the verses is not
known, for they were found among his
papers after his death. He had worked
some sums in algebra on the same
sheet

noticed that there is a small opening
in the wall of the building at the bot
tom of each pair of windows. These
openings are the inlet openings of the
fresh-air flues. These flues are built
into the wall up to the hay NOW and
are then extended over to the center
alley, where the fresh air is liberated
near the heads of the animals. The
intake openings are fitted with wire
mesh screens. The foul air fiues COM
plete the ventilating system up to the
ventilators themselves. These fues
take the foul air from near the floor
at four points adjacent to the litter
alleys. Each of the two ventilators
serves two of the f1ues. Bypass open
ings may be placed in the f1ues near
the ventilators so that the same ven
tilators will handle the air in the
hay NOW.

A Child Shall Lead Them

Modern and cultured persons, I be-
lieve, object to their children seeing
kitchen company or being taught by
a woman like Pegotty. But surely
it is more important to be educated
in sense of human dignity and equal
ity than in anything else in the world.
And child who has once had to re-
spect a kind and capable woman of
the lower classes will respect the
lower classes forever. The true way
to overcome the evil in class dfstinc-
ton is not to denOunce them as revo-
lutionists denounce them, but to ig-
more them as children ignore them

Cause for Generalization.

1t is well that the nation should
pause on one day each year to do hon
or to the type of labor which stands for
American industry. 1t is labor as a
characteristic of the people which we
celebrate. All may join in congratu-
latlng labor. Wages have been raised,
hours have been shortened. The cause
of labor is the cause of all. Caution
for one is for the advantage of all,
and where there is this mutual consid-
Grafton labor In the wider sense can
not help but gain.

Don't Be a Derelict.

Shipwreck and derelict go together.
If a boy or girl listens to bad advice
or follows bad examples they become
shipwrecked and all that is left is a
derelict. You will find a lot of them
in iaiI, but countless more of them
in the grave.
Look out how you start out. Look
before you leap. Stop, look, listen,
Safety first.

Combination barns are often neces-
sary since they may be built at a low
er cost per animal than two barns
to give the same housing capacity.
There is no objection to the combina-
ton barn, provided the horse stable
and the COW stable are definitely sep
arated, plenty of light is allowed to
enter each part and an adequate ven
tilating system is installed. 1t is
easier to provide for a number of
horses in the COW barn than it is to fur
nish accommodations for a single team
of horses, as would be the requirement

STORAGE House Peculiar to Maine.

The Aroostock type of storage
house, with concrete or masonry
basement walls and wooden super
structure, seems to be distinctively a
product of Maine, and so far as has
been observed is not found to any ex-
tent outside of the state. 1t is an ex-
pensively constructed house and is al
most always located on sidehill or
knoll in order that advantage may be
taken of a grOund-level entrance.
That such houses have proved salts
factory to the potato grower in Maine
is evident from the fact that practi-
cally no other style of potato storage
house is in use in that state.
