Effort To DeraiI Troop Train Barred.

Wellington, Kan, Oct. 29.-What is
believed to have been an attempt to
wreck troop trains was frustrated near
here as result of an accident. A motor
handcar on which Will Jones, Rock
Island track Inspector, and an assist
ant were riding was derailed near the
city limits. The men were seriously
injured. An examination of the track
showed that spikes. had been wedged
between the rail ends. An engine
passing over them would have been
derailed Troop trains scheduled to
aass this way were detoured.

The capacity of the big NOW is 10

passageway across the center, by which
every part Of the NOW can be reached,

bins are provided. These have hopper

be placed on the leeward side Of the
road during the dusty months of the
year. This distance varies from 200
feet to a quarter Of a mile, depending
upon the topography and the amount
the highway is used.
There are just as many troublesome
elements entering when arranging the
outbuildings with respect to each as
there are to locating them with respect
to the house. 1t is not desirable to
drive the stock from the barns to the
highway past the house, neither is it
conducive to cleanliness to haul hay
and straw oyer such a route. This
necessitates a front and back drive,
one past the house, the other directly
to the barn.
Animals enjoy fresh air and sun

In a hollow or on the north side of q

Convenience is not the only thing to
be considered in the planning and ar
ranging of buildings. They must be
planned for beauty and designed and
constructed SO that the owner will de-
sire-becauSe of the pride he takes
in them-to keep them and their sur
roundings neat and clean.
The design illustrated is a combined
COW, horse, calf and storage barn. 1t
is laid out in the form Of a cross, this
design having several distinct advan-
tages.
In the first place, it is a convenience
to the farmer to have much of his
work consolidated within the walls Of
a single building. However, the dairy
regulations of several states do not
permit mich cows to be stabbed in
the same rooms with horses or young
stock where the litter is not removed
every day. Avoiding this difficulty we

stable arrangement. The horses and
young stock are entirely shut away
from the dairy stable.
But aside from all other considera-
tons, the strongest recommendation
that this design has is its good looks.
Viewed from any angle, it is a dis
tinctive-looking building. Farmers are
coming to appreciate this matter of
good looks. They know that a barn
can be designed to look right and yet
not take a single board foot more of
lumber or an extra sack of cement to
build it.

Diet, Exercise or Death!

SAn eminent medical authority writes
that most of our city folks die Of a thick
ening Of the arteries or OF kidney dis
ease. The kidneys become clogged and
do not filter the poisons from the blood,
and one trouble follows another, high
blood pressure damages the heart, arteries
and kidneys. Usually its danger signals
!. are backache, pain here or there, swollen
feet or ankles, rheumatic twinges or
spots enpearing before the eyes.
"The very best remedy is this: Eat
meat but opce a day, or not at all. Plenty
.of outdoor exercise, and drink pure
water frequently. Before meals take q

have outlived their usefulness should

the flag is raised to full staff and at

until noon when it is raised to full
staff for the remainder of the day.
When the flag is displayed with
