story of the man who took the trail

DIDN'T SEE POINT OF HUMOR
Two Notable Cases Where Intended Witticisms Were Taken as Though
 Seriously Uttered.

A recent discussion of American hu- nor recalls an anecdote from John Morley's Life of Gladstone" in which is related the amusement of the Eng fish leader at the story of a worthy citizen of Boston. who had just. for the first time, read Shakespeare. The plays pleased him. "I call that very clever book" said he; .I don't sup pose there are twenty men in Boston who could have written it." One would like to know, however, whether Mir. Morley or Mir. Gladstone realized the possibility that the American gen. tleman was having his own little joke, and perhaps took 1t for granted that the nearer would understand the re- mark as something not to be taken seriously. Such mistakes. at any rate, happen frequently in ordinary conver- sation. as was once the case with man who jocularly declared that If ever he kept COW he would get one that gave nothing but cream. and was later surprised to hear himself report ed as an otherwise intelligent person who evidently knew nothing at all about cows.-Christian Science Moni- tor.

ings pays a great big dividend in better and more productive livestock and in the saving made on the labor neces sary to care for the animals. The la bor shortage the high price of feed and the generally increased cost of pro- ducing farm products have brought the fact that better buildings mean larger profits forcibly to their attention.
 During the next few years more and better buildings than ever have been erected by American farmers will be put up. One of the reasons for this prediction is the many Farm I'm provement Savings Clubs" that are be- ing started by banks throughout the country. A "Farm Improvement Saw ings Club" is nothing more than an application of systematic saving to the needs of the farmers. It. however, has the advantage of providing an incentive for saving that farmers are taking ad vantage of in great numbers. It pro- vides an easy method for the farmer to accumulate sum of money sufii- cient for new farm buildings and im- provements on the old buildings.
 T. is, however, to his business sense that good, modern buildings appeal. A good home, for instance has been found to be the greatest hold he can have on the young people to keep them on the farm. And now that the gas engine has made possible running water. electric light and mechanically operated household equipment, such as washing machines. vacuum cleaners and the other labor-saving devices that are used constantly by dwellers in the larger cities. there is no reason why the farm home cannot be as comfort able and convenient as the city home without the drawbacks of smoke, dirt and congestion that go with life in the city. It is good business to keep the younger people on the farm; they are more happy there, if they have city conveniences, and they will get along great deal faster financially than their less fortunate fellows who are born and forced to live in the city.
 This Aggression may seem out of place in connection with an article about barns. But it was made to bring

BLACK-DRAuCHT A

Some Kind of Stomach Trouble With Cramps and Terrible Pains Made This Oklahoma Mans Life Miserable Un.
 til Black-Qfaught Re-
 lieVed Him.

Chickasha, Okla.-Mrs. J. W. Walker recently said this: We use Black Draught as family medicine and think 1t is the only liver medicine made. My husband makes 1t up and uses it as tonic as we'll as a laxa- tive. l use it for headache, sour stom- ach, a full heavy feeling after meals, which I suppose is indigestion. and 1t certainly does me lot of good.
 My husband had some kind of stom- ach trouble-we don't know just what. It would strike him just any time in the day and icramp or pain him just terribly bad. Someone told him how to make tea of the Black-Draught, which he did. It did him so much good, it removed the cause and cured him. Since then we have praised the Black-Draught to our friends, and gladly do so."
 Seventy years of successful use has made Thedford's Black-Draught a standard, household remedy. Every member of the family at times needs the help that Black-Draught can give in cleansing the system and prevent ing or relieving the troubles that come from constipation, indigestion, lazy liver, etc.

the weather, while at the same time they will have fresh air and the other things necessary to keep them healthy and capable of doing their best work.
 The barn is of frame construction, 10 by 72 feet. In 1t are IS single stalls, two double stalls and two box stalls, besides the feed room and harness room. The stalls are placed so that the horses face the feed alley running through the center of the barn. making the work of feeding them easy. At either side of the barn Is litter alley which, by the use of an overhead car rier connecting with the manure piles or pits at the rear, also make it pos sible to save considerable labor.
 At each stall head is an oat or corn box, while with steel stall partitions and movable stanchions and drinking cups, which furnish the animals fresh water whenever they desire to drink, this will make barn that compares favorably with the best.
 Nine windows on either side of the barn permit the entrance of fresh air and sunshine. The size of the barn Is such that there Is room for Mrge mow. big enough to store the winters supply of roughage.
 While the stalls as here shown were designed for horses. this barn is equal ly good for the dairy herd. The needs of horses and cows and the work of caring for them are not greatly difer- ent. and the arrangement here shown of feed and litter alleys, the stalls and storage room is practically the same as in the up-to-date dairy barns.
 This is the sort of barn, embody- ing as it does the modern features avery farmer now wants and knows are most profitable. that is being erected on majority of farms. It Is well constructed. Is weather-tight, Is provided with good ventilation and Is so arranged that the work of caring for the animals 1t houses can be per formed in an easy and economical manner.

GRASSHOPPERS NEXT SEASON
Killing by Poisoning and Flowing Arc Most Effective Ways of Guard
 ing 1920 Crop.

Each female grasshopper lays from 80 to 160 eggs, in clusters of 40 to 80 in small holes about 1h inches below the surface of the ground. MT. Stew art Lockwood, entomologist for the North Dakota Agricultural college, says that if these eggs are allowed to hatch next years crops are in serious danger. He states that killing by poi soning and blowing are the two most effective ways of safeguarding the 1920 crop. This year it was found that very few if any grasshOppers matched out on plOwed land. Sixty per cent of the hoppers came from roadsides, fence rows. flax stubble land. and 40 per cent from land that was stubbled into crop the fall of 1918.
