FINEST SILK POPLINS
THE TIP AND THE PINNACLE

The film play reaches new distinction
in "Cabiria," the d'Annunzio scenario
and the ToriIa production, which now
is installed in the Illinoic theatre for
"a run. Here we have the color, the

author and a producer who have the

Of film fabricator. "Cabiria" goes
back into Roman and Carthagenian
history of the third century, B. c., and
restores for US such historic events as
Hannibars crossing Of the Alps, the
famous destruction Of Roman ships in
Syracuse harbor by the mirrors of the
ingenious Archimedes, Scipio's con-
quering of Carthage and other items
of the notable past. The Italians have
a genius for this sort of thing, and
"Cabiria" thus has not only the value
of great spectacle, but also of a
telescope, which permits us to look
down the long centuries into the twi-.
light past. Fascinated by its historic
pageantry, we felt the illusion of
people Of an elder day and
lead civilization. "Cabiria" catches
he imagination as well as the eye.

Christian time a likeness to fire. He

THRIFT OH TIE FARM.

Fair Indication Is the Method Ems
pIoyed In Caring For Tools.
\ fair indication of the thrift and
general prosperity of 3rmer is the
method he employs in caring for his
tools, according to DR.. j. d. Walters,
professor of architecture in the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
"Shiftlessness, waste, lack of energy,
constant buying and heavy burdens of
debt will accompany poor care" said
Dir. Walters. Good care is an indica-
ton Of shrewdness, business ability,
lOHg lived machinery, comfortable
bank balances and assurances of
peaceful, prosperous future.
The machine shed is seldom used
for any other purpose than to shelter
machinery, and the cheapest structure
that is consistent with reasonable du-
rability is the one to construct. A
wooden building win answer most lie.
quirements.
plans for the implement shed will
be governed by the number and size OF
the machines and the amount of space
that each WIil occupy. The arrange
ment Of the machines should be such
that they VIII be easily accessible in
seasons when they are needed most
The binders should be given a place in
a far corner, leaving a space near the
door for the mower and the plows.
The manure spreader, the wagons and
the buggies should he accessible.
MANY opportunities for economy in
space can easily be found. A binder
platform, for instance, may be raised
up, provided some Of the rail Stats with
the attached arms are removed, and in
this space beneath the platform can be
stored such implements as hand drills
and walking ploWs.
THE construction Of q machine shed
is simple. Since the building is not sub
jected to any heavy load, the framing
may be just sufficiently strong to hold
the wall and roof covering and to pre-
vent collapse from wind or snow and
ice loads. The studs or posts may be
2 by 4 or by 4, no heavier stock being
necessary.
1.-THE roof may be of almost any
style, from the simple single pitch shed
roof to the ordinary gable roof, but in
any case the pitch should not be less
than 20 degrees. Wide doors are an
absolute necessity. A twelve foot slid
ing door is large enough for the ma
jority of farm implements, even allow
ing the binder ana rake to enter. To
keep the structure from sagging at the
doorway a strong Intel should be
placed at this point"

billions of dollars that are annually

of the most fearful curses ever brought

expended is an economic waste and a
drain upon the physical, mental, moral
and financial stamina of the country.
Moreover, the alliance of the saloon
interests with the politics of the cOun-

WINTERING LIVE STOCK.
Housing In Open Sheds Found to Be
Advantageous.

An experiment conducted for sew
eral years at the Pennsylvania expert
ment station at State college, to study
the effect of housing dairy animals I'M
! der open sheds as compared with hous-
| ing them in the ordinary closed barn,
has included the following general
lines: % The food requirements under
both conditions of housing; (2) the
milk yield under both conditions; 80
the effect upon the health of the COW;
a. the bedding required under each
system; 90 the difference in the bac-
terial content of milk.
From the data secured by this expert
ment it appears that cows kept under
the open shed have keener appetites
and consume more roughage than those
kept in stables. The milk yield of the
outside group in the experiment de-
creased more rapidly than that Of the
inside group. In the long run there
was little appreciate difference be-
tween the two groups in total yield of
milk, butter fat and total solids, these
differences being so small as to be with
in the range of error due to the indi-
viduality of the animals used, the skill
of the feeder, and variation in the COM
position of the several feeds,
The bedding question may be sum-
med up with the statement that the
outside cows required more bedding,
but less labor was required to move it
than in the case of the inside cows.
Animals housed in the open she'd are
less susceptible to disease, such as tu-
berculosis, than those kept in stables.
Precautions should be taken in hous-
ing animals in an open shed, to protect
them from drafts; in other words, the
shed should be tight except on the
open side.
