EYE STRAIN IS NOT DISEASE

Near and far-sightness are deformf.

A person suffering from eye-strafr
who at the same time is ENJOYING the
best of health, is often at loss to know
who he should consult. He does MT
feel that he needs q physician but he
knows that he needs relief.
Many people still speak Of near

but they are not more a disease than
is a small ear or a large nose. It fol-
lows that the laynlan often does not
know that these conditions are caused
by a faulty shape Or false position Of
the eye-baIl, which condition renders
vision unsatisfactory Or painful.
Much of the suffering is due to eye

ing mechanism which is installed IN
these troughs, a dividing partition be
ing built into the trough 80 that the
working length of the conveyor runs
in the upper part of the trough, while
the lower part serves as a return for
the chain. In operation, the corn is al
lowed to drop into the upper part OF
the trough while the conveyor chain
is in motion, by removing boards laid
over the trough when the crib is being
filed, and it is then carried out of the
end of the trough and fed to the
shelter.

from storms and dampness, and it
saves considerable labor in handling
the grain.
The driveway is a wOrkrOOm in win
ter. In summer and fall it is an en-
trance way for loads Of ear corn from
the husking and small grains from the
threshing machine. Between seasons
it answer for storage for farm wag-
ons that are in use a good deal.
1t is q place. for the tanning mill in
winter. Grain is .spouted down to the
tanning mill, cleaned, graded and
spouted back to the bins by machinery.
A cup elevator is built in the CEN
ter of the building which takes grain
from the boot ON the floor, ~elevates it
to the cupola and deposits it in a hop
per. From this hopper the small grains
are delivered by spout to the different
grain bins and ear corn is distributed
in the same way to the different>parts
of the four cribs.
Because the load of the grain when
the bins are full is considerable, this
structure must be strongly built. The
foundations are important, and must

each bin 20 hold the studs in place
against the pressure of the grain. The
bins are sealed inside with flooring.
The rafters are by As sheathed
open and ~shingled. The cupOla is
framed entirely with 2 by As. There
is a downspout in the center of
each bin. These may be made
easily of 1-inch by 10-inch boards,
a wooden slide gate with hand hole
being provided at the lower end, or
sheet metal spOuts may be used, the
sheets being riveted together. The
upper ends Of the spouts. are securely
fastened to the joists.
Six-light windows, are placed high
up under the gables in the grain bins,
and a window is placed in each end Of
the cupola. Double sliding doors are
used at the ends Of the driveway,
these doors being hung on roller bear
ing hangers mounted on protected
steel tracks. The contents of this
building represents a good share of
the farmers profits, so that a small
investment in lightning protection Is
money wisely spent. At least one
lightning rod should be used, mounted
on the peak of the cupola roof and
grounded by the shortest route. If
the equipment within the building con-
sists of any extensive metal parts,
these should also be grounded
through thelightning ROD conductor.
The building must, Of course, con-
form to any special demands made
upon it by the elevating machinery
which is selected. In general, the
cupoIa must be constructed so that
corn and grain may be delivered by
chute to the cribs and bins from the
elevator head. The floor must, fol-
some elevators, be constructed with
a pit under the elevator shaft. There
is sufficient headroom in the driveway
so that the front of the wagon may
be lacked up in unloading. Minor
changes in such a building are easily
made, but the principal point to be
considered is the strength of the struc
ture. This building has been very
carefully designed for strength with
economy of materials considered. The
farmer will do well to be sure that
any building which he intends to cree
for a similar purpose ID carefully
checked Over by someone who has ex
J perience in the construction of grair
loads and the strength of building ma
! terials.

BY WILLIAM A. RADFoRD.

At this time it is particularly neces-
sary that the farmer do everything in
his power to prevent waste Of grain
and other fOodstuffs. A great deal
depends upon his ability to turn out
record crops and his wisdom in caring
for new crops until the produce is
placed on the market. There is a new
interest in the construction of corn
cribs and granaries.
The building shown in the accom-
panying illustrations is an excellent
type for the average farmer. 1t is a
combined corn crib and granary built
with two stories, &c by 40 feet on the
ground. The height is Is feet to the
caves. There are corn cribs at the
sides and grain bins overhead, IN the
center. A driveway 10 feet wide,
having 10 feet of headrOOm, runs
through the center below the bins.

These joists are 3-inch by 14inch

The inner studs, above the plate just

be proportional to carry the load with
out settling. The foundation walls and
footings and the floors are of concrete.
The foundation wall extending around
the outside of the building is made
solid with footings two feet wide by
eight inches deep. There are two cross
foundation walls under the interior
bents which support the joists under
the grain bins. These cross walls are
carried down TO footings two feet wide
by one foot deep. The concrete drive
way is laid at grade, only enough ex-
eavation being made to prepare the
soil for the concrete slab. The con-
crete is laid about one foot SE inches
above grade under the corr cribs, ex-
cept for the trough along the center
of each crib, the, bottom Of which is
only slightly above grade. This trough
has vertical sides and is used for the
shelter drag and also for ventilating
purposes. There is also a shelter
