edge Has Not Been Destroyed
by the War.

Al the one hundred and sixty.nfth
session of the Royal Society of Arts
the chairman of the council. Mr. Alan
A. Campbell Swlnton, f. Il. s., In nm
address on Science and the Future"
snid that undoubtedly the war had
been responsible for an enormous
amount Of destruction OF capital, but
Wien those losses were estimated II
was not usually horne in mind that
capital did not merely consist of gold
and silver, bricks ana mortar. furni
ture and il,ments, or even of railways
steamships and machinery, but that
the main capital of the modern world
consisted of scientific knowledge. The
reconstruction of the material things
now temporarily destroyed would
take only very small fraction of the
labor and time expended when men
learned how TO bring those things
about. When we complied estimates
of losses due To the war We must not
forget that our greatest asset. the vas,
store of knowledge TINT hud been
gathered together, was still Intact. In

farm buildings. One OF the things
that the modern Idea OF farm efficiency
demands Is that the hogs be housed In
building that can be kept clean nnd
is so arranged that the swine can be
cared Tor with the least amount % cf.

Ii may be tritc to say IT, but hogs
are valuable property these days. 4
little more money spent ON the hog
house means latter and healthier ami
mails, and each additional pound Is
worth real money about the time sncw

Is known as the snw-tooth hog house
While the floor plnn shows the mr.
ran9ement OF these features. 1t might
be explained a little more fully by a
description OF 1t.
Room for Eighteen Sows. 49,
The hog house proper was laid out
to Accommodate eighteen sows: two
stalls In one end were used ia provide
plenty uf room around the water place
and another stall In the other end for
the scale box and small store room !;
SO, as 1t is arranged now 1t contains
fifteen usnble stalls.
The ventilation is taken care of by
two combination smoke stacks and

This rentilator is fitted with door
on the inside, so that II can he closed

between the stalls are removable, so
that one or more pens can be thrown
together.
The feeding platform also can be
used as outside yards by putting In
tile cross gates. Each SIX feet there is

The sleeping pens, granary and corn
crib nre all hoored with hollow tile
with two inches of concrete over them.
The corn crib and granary have stud
ding sockets SET In the concrete on top
OF the wall The sills in the hog house
are bolted down 10 the top of the foun-
dation wall. There is slat door be-
tween the corn crib and grannry, so as
to make II tight when the granary Is
full OF small grain.
The roof is shlngled with compost
ton shingles and the siding is fir drop
siding. Everything is of the best ma
terlals and is built in the best possible
way. All the foundation walls are re-
lnforced
The floor Of the hog house slopes to
the center, so as to drain into the sew
or which runs out under the feeding
platform. The feeding platform slopes
TO the outside and also Mt one end.
The feed trough also slopes and Is
fitted with drain Mt one end.
All Fittings Are Modern.
The fittings OF the house are mod
ern In every respect. One of these Is
a vaterer that will not freeze. Con-
crete floors ana feeding troughs make
1t easy to keep the building clean, and
cleanliness has been found to he n
prime factor in the successful produc-
ton OF hogs.
This hog house Is only one OF the
buildings that will be erected on the
farms this year that contains many
up.to.date features in construction aud
equipment.
There is a growing demand among
the farmers Tor these modern build.
