FORGIVENESS
 PRAYED FOR
 FAULTY AIM

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 2,--Geman soldiers now are required to ask their "Gott" for forgiveness when their shots do not take effect against the allies.
 This is almost unbelievable but it is t,ua.
 The prayer whicSh contains this brutal plea is contained in a booklet prepared for army circulation by one Dietrich Volerk. 1t is also circulated emon.: chcch congregations at home'
 The prayer reads:
 "Though the warriors bread be scanty, do Thou work daily death and tenrold woe upon the enemy.
 Forgive in merciful long-Sufcr'ag each bullet a,td Ilow which misses it's mark,
 Lead us not into the temptation of letting our wra.h be too tame in car lyiug out thy dlvnc judgment,
 Deliver Us and our ally from the lnrelnal Enemy and his servants on earth.
 "Thine is the kingdom, the German land; may we, by the aid of Thy steel clad hand, achieve the fame and the glory. Amen"
 Dietrich Volc,k, the collcctar. of this prayer book and perhaps the au- thor Of this ShalpShooters prayer, iS the man who wrote the words to the hymn in which the blessing of "Gott" iS asked upon the German "Cherubmen Scraphinen, Zcppelinen' (ChciubS' Scraphs, ZeppelinS).

The moon-vine wants rich earth.
plenty of sun and water. 1t makes as
tonishing growth in a season. How
ever, for the best results it must be
started In the house.
Those who want a curious and beau
tiful flower should plant the passion
flower. The hardy varieties need
mulching during the winter until well
established. The tender passion flow
ers are very extremely beautiful, but
are rather shy boomers.
The honeysuckles are desirable and
popular on account of their many
good qualities. They grow quickly,
forming dense shade and are iron-clad
as regards insects and disease. Halls
Evergreen blooms all summer, and its
flowers are delightfully."- jasmine-scent-
ed. It holds its leaves until spring,
almost, and therefore should not be
allowed to shade windows which need
the winter light.
The various clematis are ali beauti.
full and desirable climbers. 1t Is not
generally known that If Clematis pant
culata is severely cut back after flow
ering it will form new wood which will
bear fine flowers and many of them the
next season.
Ideal plants for covering brick,
stone and rough surfaces are the am
pelopsls and hedena helix-the true
European Ivy. The latter prefers a
northern exposure as the alternating
thawing and freezing of late winter
Is apt to kill it If grown where the sun
strikes 1t. The ampelopsis, better
creeper, Is at all times beautiful. The
tender growth In the spring Is delicate
ly shaded and in the fall the leaves
are gorgeous in vari-colored Colds,
crimsons and scarlets.
Morning glories, cypress vines,
sweet peas, gourds, nasturtiums, Japa-
nese hops, with cucumber are among
our most desirable annual climbers.
Seeds of them do not cost much, and a
package of one or the other will yield
shade, beauty and grace.
The sides of steep terrace or bank
may be transformed into thing of
beauty by planting trailers among its
top. Rosa Wichuraiana, the memorial
rose, and its hybrids are desirable for
this purpose. 1T produces a profnsion
Of long wreaths of small thickly set
leaves, that look as though they were
vanished. In June it literally covers
itself with large, white single roses.
The Virginia creeper, the honey
suckle, nasturtiums and moon vines
are trailers rather than climbers. OF
garden plants the sweet potato and
the dewberry are genteel enough to be
instead Of flowers.

Floor Plan.

milk handled Is not great enough to
warrant the use Of q separate building.
the milk house must be combined with
either the farmhouse or the ice house.
Under certain conditions, the farmer
might desire an extension to his house
which would include both the ice
house and the milk house. A farm
house designed In this way is among
others in a group of designs recently
prepared by the United States depart
ment of agriculture. If such a scheme
Is not used, the combined building
should. at least, be placed as near the
farmhouse as possible.
There are certain conditions which
must be taken into account in building
the ice house. The first is that its To-
cation must be such that good drain
age is possible. There is always a loss
by melting and the water must be car
ried well away from the building and
disposed of either in the soil, through
drainage system already in place or
by connection with a stream. The de-
sign will account for the other condi-
tons, which are related to the proper
construction OF the walls and roof OF
Belington progressive. [volume] (Belington, W. Va.) 1912-1927, 1918-01-31

the building to secure sufficient In
sulation to prevent undue loss. Struc-
tural tile has been found an excellent
material for the construction of farm
ice houses. Its ordinary use provides
a series of dead air spaces which are
very effective as an insulation against
temperature variation. 1t is, of course,
necessary to use care In the construc-
ton of the walls so that no leaks are
present to admit warm air to the In
terror of the house. The inside of the
house must be lined with some water
PROCEED insulation so that moisture
does not have an opportunity to work
into the mortar joints and body of the
tile.
Within the main walls of the ice
house there may be a partition placed
near one end to form milk room and
ice bunker. Such an arrangement is
more economical of ice than to build
house remote from the Ice house. The
door into the milk room should be
constructed in the same manner as the
continuous doors placed in the outside
wall of the ice house.
The milk house size and arrange
ment viii depend upon the method of
handling the milk. If special equip
ment is used. provision must be made
for it in the house. There is more to
be considered than simply the size.
For instance, the farmer who wishes a
gasoline engine in his milk house, to
turn the separator, churn, ice cream
freezer or whatever other equipment
Is used requiring power, must have
provision for the placing of a concrete
base. at the time of pouring the foun-
dalton and floor, and an outlet must be
provided in the wall or roof for the ex-
hGust pipe of the engiLe. If boiler
is required, 1t may be necessary to pro-
vide special floor construction for it.
In any event, the milk house should be
provided with chimney and cooling
tank should be conveniently placed,
In the design. Unless supply of pure
water is near at hand and can be con-
veniently piped to the milk house, 1t is
advisable to place pump In the milk
house. Some farmers place the equip
ment Of their water supply system for
the farm In their dairy house. The

result Of the combination Is the same,
II the selection of the parts Of the
combination is carefully made.
The Ice house and the milk house

proportion Of the contents of the Ice
house will eventually be used In the

these buildings results In saving Of
time In filling the bunker or in obtain
ing ice for other purposes In the milk
house part Of the building. Good dairy
men will not keep milk near the
stables, even though the law in their
state does not force them to observe
this precaution. The milk house is
then a necessity and 1t will ordinarily
be obtained in one of three ways: In
case the dairy business is large, a sep

modern equipment necessary to the
conduct of paying dairy business,

Some of the buildings on the aver
age farm, as matter of economy in
original investment and also in labor
cost OF doing certain parts VI the farm
work, may be designed TO serve a mui-
tiple purpose. OF the possible combi-
nation buildings, perhaps the most log
ical Is the combined ice house and
milk house. The appearance of the
farm Is very much benefited by having
smaller number of high-grade build
ings of somewhat larger size. A large
number of scattered outbuildings not
only result In the appearance of dis
organization, but this arrangement
very often actually results In the waste
of miles Of walking between buildings,
when the matter Is considered on a
basis of a years time. Even though
the combination building be, in real
tty, two separate buildings under one
roof or two departments having no

requires q small sink which should
be placed where there is plenty Of
light.
The combined ice house and dairy
shown In the accompanying perspective
and floor plan is well-designed build
Ing Of very neat appearance. The walls
of the building are Of structural tile,
built upon concrete foundation. The
Ice Is intended to be covered with saw
dust or straw that has been put
through the cutting box. Continuous
doors for easy filling extend from the
concrete wall almost to the peak of
the building.
The dairy is big enough to handle
the milk from good-sized dairy herd
when the milk is run through the sep
aratOr and the SKINNED milk fed to
weil-bred young stock as quickly as
possible after being separated. One
of the easiest and best ways of start
ing farm dairy business is to handle
the milk in this way. The cream should
be sent either to the city or to the
creamery. SKINNED milk when fed to
pure-bred calves and pigs has spe-
cial value that brings better returns
than selling the milk. There is very
little fertility carried away from the
farm in cream cans. Farmers who do
a careful dairy business have valuable
stock and get high prices for the ami
mails fed in this way. The value of
the dairy house can only he measured
by taking into account all Of the vari-
Gus features of the business such as
this method of feeding suggests.
