was quite insufficient to attain that
object.

are as strong as the wall ITSELF
which. Of course, is all that is neces-
sary. 1t is only waste of material
to put In II to 10-inch concrete foun-
dalton to the floor line when the foot
Ing 30 to 36 inches below the ground
line can be easily made the proper
width, and the wall really started at
this point.
1t has been demonstrated that in
building the foundation in this way
to the floor line, fully so per cent is
saved when q solid concrete founda-
ton is taken into consideration. This
is partly on account of no forms re-
Quired and partly because of the saw
ing of wall above the footing. In lay
ing the hollow tile below the ground
level, 1t has been found that nothing
in the way Of strength or ability to
serve its purpose is sacrificed by leav-
ing out the joints between the ends Of
the tile, and great deal of time, Of
course, is saved in laying.
Experiments and experience have
proven that the only really satisfactory
way of building a hognouse floor is
to use hollow tile or fake floor of
boards or some other means of secur>
ing dead air spaces Immediately under
the hogs. This is we'll secured by
using a second-class tile in or 5-inch
thickness with a Inch top coat Of
1 to A cement and sand spread on top
Of this course Of tile.
The proper changing of the air in a
hoghouse is of the greatest impor-
lance, for in order to do 1t properly,
1t is necessary to have control at all
times and yet have no drafts directly
on the hogs.
For letting the air in, openings should
be left just under the caves ON each
side Of any type OF hoghouse, and 1t is
found that a s by II opening about ev-
cry six feet is very close to being right.
This is easily secured by leaving out
5 by by Il tile If this size is used.
The exit of the air. the ridge-roll
type of ventilator which we have de-
veloped, is by far the cheapest and
fully as effective as any of the more
fancy types. For few cents, ridge
roll ventilator will provide as much
ventilation as an equivalent number
of dollars invested in some of the more
elaborate types. These ventilatOrs
should be placed from six to eight
feet apart, depending upon the expos
ure of the building.
A very common mistake is made in
providing means for the air getting out
with no way for 1t to get In.
OF course, the openings under the

How Man Fights Natures Eorcea

Life Is fight. From cradle to
grave man is engaged In a struggle
against natures forces. With our first
breath we begin to counter these
forces, and continue from our first
breath to our last, says Charles M.
Horton, in Industrial Management. In
dividually we are compelled gradually
to give way to these forces-to decay.
1t is the law. Nature dictates. And
all life recognizes it. From earliest
dawn of history mankind has instinc-
lively resisted this law, actively and
passively. Humanity's first thought
self-preseryation-is the one big ac-
tive agent, and as an agent 1t came to
mankind as an outgrowth of primitive
mans own endless fight against de-
cay.

Foresters say that the tall cotton,

that In great forest the taller trees
