roles, Nebraska won its first game
from Wesleyan in three years here
tonight, u to ID.
Jimmie Gardiner, playing his last
game as a Husker, and Paul Flothow
were the scintillating stars of the
Husker five. GARDENERS guarding was
a potent factor in the Husker victory,
while Flothow's long shots netted
four field goals. Gardiner gees to

their part nobly, the Huskers were
not to be denied. .-.
The game was rough. Allen, the

Fms of France.

At the time that Louis XIV was king
Of France fan making had reached,
perhaps, its highest point. 1t has not
gone backward since then, but surely
no fans could be made more exquisite
than were those of the days Of the
glory Of Versailles.
Du Barry and Nine. de Pompadour,
the two most persistent favorites Of
Louis XIV, were both very fond Of
fans, and many are the stories told Of
their extravaganza in buying them
or, at least, ordering them, for the
king had to pay for them. One that
was chosen by Mime. de Pompadour
took nine years in the making. 1t was
made of paper cut like fine point lace,
and the sticks bore medallions so tiny
but withal perfect-that they could
only be made out by the aid of very
powerful microscope.

In the extreme northern section OF
the Countrywide Gran Chaco region,

ally seeks the newer field in the far
southland. Some have found work rid
ing DER the Argentine pampas but, gen.
orally speaking, life on the pampa is
gradually losing its former wild attrac-
tons. Furthermore, the wages paid
the ordinary cowpuncher are rarely
over $50 or $40 per month; the natives
perform this labor and in many ways
are as efficient or more SO than the
North American.
Travelling over Argentina impresses
the visitor with the vastness of things
in general {; the range, the level pampa,
the stock, the lonely cot, the far-dis-
tant horizon. He sees how the possess
sion of vast estates and the revenue
therefrom makes it possible for the
owner to live in ease and delegate the
active management of affairs to others.

of the side walls, firmly tied together
and braced by the roof sheathing. The
gambrel shape is used for the roof,
and there are no cross braces from ore
side of the barn to the other to clut-

eliminated, since they are not needed
to develop the strength of this type
of barn. Another advantage in the

manner of finishing barns. The use
OF red paint in barn finish, which al
most became a habit not long ago, is
slowly giving way to less conspicuous
and more artistic methods of finishing.
Barns painted light gray with white
trim, pure white with light-tinted
roofs, and in many other pleasing
ways, are now quite common through
out the country.
A combination barn built on the

80 feet by 46 feet designed In accord

that moisture cannot get to the sillS'
and rot the wood. The floor Is of con-
crete throughout and Is level and fin
ished smooth, with the exception Of
the cow stable floor, in which the man
ger and gutter are formed. The smooth
concrete floor is easily kept clean and
is therefore an ideal floor in all parts
Of the barn except in the horse stalls,
where the hard surface is objection
able. In the stalls wood block Or
other floor may be laid over the con-
crete, giving a construction which iS
capable Of renewal and is not subject
to settling. The concrete surface may
be made gritty in back of the cow
stalls to prevent slipping.
The floor plan shows stabling for six.
cows in one corner of the barn, while
the opposite side is given over to the
horses. There is stabling for four
horses in the single stalls, and box
stall is furnished to provide space for
an animal which requires individual
attention. A harness room is built,
handy to the horse stalls.
There is a small grain room and a.
space for wagons or implements, with,
a convenient doorway 10 feet wide.
The concrete floor in the nipple nent
room is an advantage, since it keeps
the wheels of the implements in the
best Of condition.
Overhead is considerable storage
space for hay or other kinds of fod-
der. The NOV is nearly 30 feet in
height, measured from the haymow
floor, and this space is free from posts
or crosswise timbers. This NOW space
is ample for the small farm and will
be greatly appreciated by the farmer.
The NOW may be filed easily and
quickly by means of horse fork,
which operates from the projection at
the front end of the barn.
The hay-carrier track is suspended
from the short collar beam close up
under the peak Of the roof. The car
is one of the new varieties that work
so easily and freely that the oldtime
horse-fork troubles are forgotten. The
car rolls out on the track projection,
so the fork drops lightly onto the GEN.
