ALL HAD IDEAS ABOUT FIRE
Members Of Family Differed consid.
erabIy Concerning It's Proper Ar
ranoement, Says Harriet
6eecher Stowe.

The fact Is, that there Is no little
nook Of domestic life which gives snug
harbor to so much self-will and self
righteousness as the family hearth:
and this is particularly the case with
wood fires, because, from the miscel-
laneous nature of the material. and
the sprlshtly activity of the combine
ton, there Is constant occasion for
tending and alteration and so "a vast
Aeld for individual opinion.
First came an enormous back log,
rolled in with the strength Of two
men. on the top of which was piled
another smaller log; and then fore
stick, of size which would entitle 1t
to be called log in our times. went
to make the front foundation Of the
fire. The rearing of the ample pile
thereupon was matter Of no small
architectural skill, and all the ruling
members of our family circle had
their own opinions about its erection.
and these they maintained with the
zeal and pertinacity which become
earnest people. My grandfather, with
his grave smile, insisted thut he was
the only reasonable fire-builder in the
establishment; but when he had mr.
ranged his sticks in the most method
ical order my grandmother would be
sure to rush out with a thump here
and twitch there. and divers incoher-
ent ordinations tending to imply that
men never knew how to build fire.
Frequently her intense zeal for imme-
date effect would end in general
rout ana roll of the sticks in all direc-
tons, with puffs of smoke down the
chimney. requiring the setting open OF
the outside door; and then Aunt Lois
would come in. and. with face Sc
we're with determination, tear down
the whole structure and rebuild from
the foundation with exactest precision
but with an air that cast volumes OF
contempt on all that had gone before

Front View Of Granary.

hand. If this grain is properly stored
in ventilated cribs, most Of the Excess
slve moisture will evaporate In few
days. In order to facilitate the proper
curing Of the corn, us well as to per-
NIT of handling the grain in large
quantities, specially planned drying
racks are used In the combination
granary under discussion.
This crib and granary is 20 feet by
30 feet In floor dimensions with ca
pacity of $50 bushels Of small grain
and $50 bushels Of corn. The over
head grainAbin occupies space which
otherwise would be wasted In an aver
age crib of this character. To give
the building proper height and pitch
Of roof to favor the efficient use Of
either stationary or portable eleva-
tor. this otherwise surplus space Is nee
essnry. 1t Is occupied by the overhead
wheat bin. Present-day economical
construction necessitates the use Of
high studding in wooden structures
rather than the use Of long, sloping
roofs.
A special feature Of this corn crib
which has been devised by the ex.
pe9ts Of the rural engineering division

from the drying racks 1t falls into conf
wide surface, 1t Is exposed to thorough
ventilation and drying before more
corn Is dumped on top of 1t. These
racks do not interfere with the maxi
mum filling Of the crib. us the outer
rack may be fastened back on the
rafters while the inner rack can be
raised and the space below filled.
The Smelling Trench.
The Smelling trench In the floor Of
the crib Is another valuable labor
saver. because one man with long
handled rake can roll the grain from
the top of the crib into the drag ns
fast as the ordinary shelter can ham
die the grain. In this way the attend
ant is able to prevent corn slides and
jams In the drag. The bottom 6f this
drag Is Mt ground level and is smooth.
so that the drag can be easily pushed
under the corn. AS already stated.
this trench is used rs an inlet duct
In the ventilation system by screening
Its ends to keep out rats and other rO-
dents. At regular intervals tile ex-
tends from the Smelling trench through
the wall in order to provide for a
cross draft Of air into the trench.
Any or all of these suggestions may
be Incorporated into any crib of SIM
liar design. The expense of such Inn
provements would be repaid in one or
two seasons Of damp grain. The ventila-
tors which are used are readily remova-
BILE, while the drying racks are hinged 80
that they can be drawn back out Of
the way. The grain bins are easy to
install, and they occupy what was for
merly waste space In cribs with steep
roofs and high peaks. Furthermore, a
concrete feeding floor on which corn
may be fed to hogs can be installed at
the option of the owner. Complete
working plans and bills of material for
this desirable combination granary and
crib will be furnished to any farmer in
the United States If he will direct 4

Millions Of bushels of corn could
have been saved in marketable con-
dtion last fall If proper farm stornges
dalton of this grain. The farmer pos
sesses no regulatory powers over the
weather man; he has no control over
season. but he can fortify himself
against the crop losses which often
occur Us consequence of inadequate
equipment and unserviceable shelter.
Time was, with grain dirt cheap, that
any sort Of makeshift crib or bin was
satisfactory as storage for the grain
crops. In actual dollars and cents,
many farmers reckoned they could
stand the losses of few bushels Of
grain better thnn they could afford the
cash outlay for the construction of de-
pendable, permanent storehouses For
tunately, the prevalent high prices of
grains are pushing the props from I'M
der this outworn theory. The loss Of
several tons of corn or wheat, in view
Of the present market prices, mounts
into three-coumn figures and 1t doesn't
take many such losses to make this
waste loom large as mountain.
Crib and Granary.

pose. corn-belt farm. 1t furnishes as
nearly ideal conditions for the drying
curing and storage Of grains as are
practical. 1t minimiZes hand labor in
handling the crops, while 1t favors the
maximum utilization of labor-conserv-
ing machines. 1t Is free of waste

able safeguards for protection against

RABBIT Meat IS

Boys and Girls Clubs Being
Formed in Various Parts Of
United States.

orsat Many Hotels Now Regularly

Fifteen hundred boy and girl club
members are raising rabbits In Taco

Joining in this enterprise to produce
cheap and delicious meat. All over
the country the boys and girls clubs,
formed under the supervision Of the
department of agriculture in connec-
ton with the state agricultural col
leges, for the purpose Of growing rab-
bits. are on the increase In size, num-
Der and popularity.
When the fact began to be realized
TINT the number of domesticated ami
mails ordinarily used for food was not
equal to the demand, various other
sources which might be used to help
supplement the regular supply were in
vestigated. One of the most promis-
ing discovered lay In increasing the
number of rabbits and encouraging
their use for food. This was in line
with the findings in other countries on
the same question. It Is stated that
30 per cent Of the meat used in Ger
many last year was rabbit.

Those who know good food long ago
realized that not even chicken could
excel a young hare in delicncy Of fiber
and flavor, and to increase their use
should not prove q difficult matter.
Nearly all the best hotels now regu-
larry serve rabbit prepared in some
special way their chef has devised.
The rabbit associations in California
and Nebraska are making special Of

In Utah the rabbit industry among
the boy and girl club members is In
creasing in Importance, with many
youngsters going into it this season
and finding 1t profitable.
Demonstration are given In the
boys and girls clubs as to the best
way to kill, dress and market rabbits.
The young people are also taught how
to can the meat and tan the skins for
home use. The popular use of rabbit
skins by furriers of this country is evil
denced by the import lists of last year.
which show. 9O,OOO,0O0 skins were
shipped here from foreign countries in
the 12 months preceding. These pelta
are also used by hatters to make bet

Rabbits don't crow or lay eggs. but
they are right there with the cheapest
meat that can be produced.
