required TO reach from one side OF the
barn to the other. The ends of the
middle tier of joists are Tapped and
spiked against the inside ends of the
two outer tiers Of joists so that each
set OF joists forms continuous tie
from one side wall to the other, to
take up the outward thrust of the
roof. The jOists are supported under
the Tapped ends on sets of girders
built up out Of four thicknesses of
joists, running continuously from one
end of barn to the other with as few
lengths as possible, and all end joists
broken so that there will not be more
than one end joint at any one place
along the length OF the girder. These
floor beams are supported by posts or
preferably iron columns, which are so
spaced that they will intersect with
the line of stanchions and the parti-
tiOns between the stalls, and rest on
concrete piers built below the concrete
floor.
The roof construction is special
feature of the barn. In framing the
roof one set of rafters is carefully
laid out on the haymow floor, and af-
ter the exact length Of each piece is
computed, these are used as patterns
and the required number of pieces cut
from this one set of patterns. When
all rafters, braces, ties and collar
beams have been cut, each set of raft
ers, braces, etc, is spiked together so
as to form a complete arch rib which
will reach from the plate of one side
wall to that of the other.
After all Of the arches are completed
the end arch is hoisted up to verti-
cal line, perfectly plumbed, well spiked
into place, and well braced. A block
and rope are hooked to the collar beam
of the arch that is in place. With
this tackle the next arch is hoisted,
plumbed and nailed in place. This
method is continued until all are in
place.
Each arch is nailed to several
sheathing boards, that are used as
guides and ties to secure the arches
as soon as they are raised. and each
arch Is braced to the studding as soon

that carriers will pay for themselves
in u short time. Most farmers time
is too valuable to be spent at such dis
agreeable and unnecessary work.
The construction of this barn con-
sists. of frame structure, the frame
of which is built entirely out of plank
ing not more than two inches in thick
ness, and built on u concrete fOunda-
ton which extends far enough above
the floor and outside ground level to
prevent moisture from coming into
contact with the wood sill and frame.
The sill should be well bOlted on the
top of the concrete foundation. The
studding are 2 by 6 inch for barns of
ordinary dimensions, and spaced 16
inches to "a inches on center, the "a
inch spacing being preferred because
any stock length of board can be
nailed to them without waste. The
studding are generally IA or 16 feet
long and have n double 2-inch by g.
inch plate spiked 'on top, which ties
them together, keeps them straight

The joists of the haymew floor are
made of 2-by10 or 2-by-12-inch planks
rs the weight may require, and these
are spaced the same as the studding,
SO that the end of each joist may be
spiked against the side of the stud
ding and, at the same time, rest on a
2-by-6-inch ribbon, which is well spiked
to the studding. This ribbon continues
the full length of both side walls with
as few joints as possible.

BY WILLIAM A. RADFoRD.

Mr. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
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. 1927 Prairie avenue, Chicago,
Ill.,, and only inclose two-cent stamp for

The largest factor in the care of the
stock is the stabling. Good light,
ventilation and sanitary equipment
mean more to the health and comfort
of the stock, and to the sanitation and
quality of the output, than any other
factors. A large percentage Of barns
are so dark and damp as to be veri-
table breeding places for disease
germs and verlnin. Light is the great
est foe to germ life.
The illustrations shown here give
an idea of the construction of ia
vOrite type Of modern farm barn.
There are ten windows to light the
cow stable and five windows for the
horse stable. Special emphasis has
been put upon providing little barn

OF the stock and which will save un-
necessary steps and operations on the
part of the owner. The Investigation
of many architects seems TO make 1t
clear that many barns in the country
could have been greatly improved and
at the same time built at less expense
if they had been studiOusly planned
to meet the farmers needs. skillfully
designed, and carefully constructed.
There are alleys for both horses and
cows running in different directions
for convenience in doing the chores.
These alleys are so arranged that

Cigar Ashes Valuable.

A curious possible source Of value in

British chemists thought that tobacco
ash contains 20 per cent Of potash. BE
estimates that the ash Of cigar con-
tains 6.5 grains of potash; that Of q
cigarette, 1.75 grains; and that Of an
ordinary pipe, Of tobacco, 1.6 grains.
The ash Of the tobacco consumed in
the United Kingdom In the year end
ing March 81, 1914, contained about
2,672 tons Of potash, worth more than
$25O,OO0 at the prices prevailing before
the war. Important amounts Of ash
could be collected in clubs, hotels and
other public places.-Columbia State.
