. Too much Importance cannot be paid
to the construction of your hoghouse,
and observation has no doubt con
vinced you that ~'permanency pays" In
this type Of building perhaps more
than In any other.
A hoghouse built like a daylight fac
tory is as important to your bank ac-
count as to the ultimate consumer OF
your ham and lard.
BY far the most effective means Of
lighting a hoghouse Is shown in the
accompanying illustration. 1t is
through the roof, and by using the
greenhouse type of sash laid flush with
the roof. In this way the sun shines
down more directly upon the glass and
less of the germ-killing rays r de-
fected.
It is a well-known fact, that prac-
ticaIly no germs can exist in direct
sunlight, and therefore you should
make use of this cheapest ,and best
disinfectant on the market to do your
share in reducing the enormous loss
from disease in western hogs.
The 6 by s or 8 by Z foot-pen with the
6-foot way along the passageway has
proven to be the most economical size
in the straight-side hoghouse and an

LEMONS M MAKE

HOW TO MAKE A CREAMY LEMON
BEAUTY LOTION AT HOME
FOR A FEW CENTS.

Your grocer has the lemons and any
drug store or toilet counter will supply
you with three ounces of orchard white
for a few cents. Squeeze the juice of
two fresh lemons into a bottle, then put
in the orchard white and shake well.
This makes a quarter pint of the very
best lemon skin whitener and complex
ion beautiier known. Massage this fra
grant, creamy lotion daily into the face,
neck. arms and hands and inst see how
freckles, tan, sallowness, redness and
roughness disappear and how smooth,
soft and white the skin becomes. Yes
1t is harmless, and the beautiful results
will surprise you.--Adv.

equivalent number of square feet floor
space should be used for each pen in
the round hoghouse.
Experience and observation have
convinced the writer that the parti-
lions between the pens should be on
hinges, so as to swing up. Thus all
pens may be turned together. The
partitions along the passageway should
slide up and be so made that they can
be fastened about nine inches above
the floor. BY having the partitions
along the passagcway so that they
may be raised partly up in this way,
1t is possible to feed young pigs slim
ulating and conditioning foods before
they are weaned.
Some general details that apply TO
all types Of permanent hoghouses will
be interesting. Hollow tile founda-
tons when laid on a hollow tile or
concrete footing to get the proper
amount Of bearing on the ground,
are as strong as the wall itself,
which, of course, is all that is neces-

boards or some other means Of secur-
ing dead air spaces Immediately under
the hogs. This is well secured by
using a second-class tile in 4 or 5-inch
thickness with n Inch top coat of
l to 4 cemeLt 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 it properly,
II is necessary to have control at all
times and yet nave 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 it is
found that a 3 by IL opening about ev-
cry six feet is very close to being right.
This is easily secured by leaving out
a 5 by s by l. tile If this size is used.
The exit OF the air, the ridge-roll
type of ventllator which we have de-
veloped, is by far the cheapest and
fully as effective as any Of the more
fancy types. For a few cents, a 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 it to get in.
OF course, the openings under the
caves should be provided with small
doors or other for shutting off
part Of the air in extremely cold wealth
er. Sliding doors all connected to-
gether by a light rod may be easily
made SO that the whole side Of the
building may be regulated at one time.

How Man Flights Natures Forces.

Life is a 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 n.
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
ali life recognizes it. From earliest
dawn of history mankind has instinc-
lively resisted this law, actively and
passively. Humanity's first thought

HOW DOCTORS TREAT
COLDS AND GRIPPE

Ask any physician or druggist
and he will tell YOU that the best
and only effective remedy Tor bad
cold sore throat or Ia grippe is
what he calls "a brisk calomel
purge which means a big dose OF
calomel at bed time. But as the old
style calomcl has some very
unpleasant and dangerous qualities
physicians and druggists are now
recommending the improved nause-
aless calomel, called "Calotabs' y
which is purified and refined from
the sickening and dangerous effects
and whose medicinal virtues are
vastly improved.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow OF water-
that's all. No salts, no nausea nor
the slightest interference with your
diet, pleasures or work. Next morn
ing your cold has vanished and your
entire system is purified and re-
freshed.
Calotabs are sold only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Your druggist guarantees
Calotabs b yrefunding the price il
