September, 1890" l could not ask for
a more authoritative confederation Of
my view that the Lion Mound is
monument to Dutch megalOmania with
out any reference to Britons or Bel
gians whatever. Certainly the Bel
gians would never have thought Of
erecting such memorial to themselves,
and as to this country, it is not its
way.
1t is quite clear, then, that the mere
reversal of the lions position affords
no adequate solution to the problem Of
satisfying those French sentiments
which NJ. Saintine expressed 90 years
ago. and which l do not doubt are still
entertained. Once the matter is taken
into consideration, there can be no dis
pute that the position and the pose of
the lion are offensive and provocative
to the French people, who, on three
historic occasions in less than q CEN
fury, have contributed of their best
and bravest to the saving of Belgian
independence.

driveway, is attached TO the elevator.
One end of the wagon body is raised
and the corn by gravity drops into the
chute, is taken to the cOnveyOr which
carries it to the top of the crib ard
distributes it to the two bins, one on
either side of the building. This ele-
vatOr is operated either by a small,
portable gas engine, an electric motor,
which gets its power from the light
system, or by hOrse-propelled skeep.
Openings at the bottom of the cribs,
or bins, allow the corn to be easily
taken out.
Such buildings as this are now look
ed upon as essential by the modern
business farmer, who believes that val
liable crops should be housed in the
way that best keeps them from de-
teriorating. The loss that up to a
short time ago was looked on as trivial
will pay for such a building as this
in few years.
The cost of a high corn crib built
from this design can readily be deter
mined by consulting the local con-
tractor and material dealer. Costs of
both materials and labor vary in diff
ferent localities, and no set price can
be given for this building, but the mas
terial dealer and contractor can give
the prospective builder an accurate es-
innate. They also can give the farm
er some excellent advice about the
size building he will need, and regard
ing the best materials to use.
However, the value of good farm
buildings, whether they be barns, hog

FOOLISH IDEAS SOME HAVE
Old Fellow RghteousIy Indignant at
Righteousness of the Guests
of His Hotel.

Capt. Lindsey Polk, director of a
number of hotels, said recently in
New York:
European hotels, even the best of
them, are inferior to ours. While
was in Paris l saw an advertisement
of fashionable new hotel, and the
boast the management made was that
it was as good as the best American
hotels. l was pleased with this trib-
ute"
Captain Polk smiled.

high. No more hotel keepers like the
old fellow who complained about his
summer visitors:
"'You wouldn't believe the non
sense that is in them. They is al

BEYOND POINT OF PERFECTION

of Humor.

President Fairfax Harrison of the
Alabama Great Southern railway
said at a luncheon in Richmond:
THE old jokes about poor service
on some of our southern and western
railroads are antiquated. No trains
in the world are more punctual today
than our trains, and accidents are
practically unknown.

the late traveller" President Fairfax
continued good humoredly, sis an old
one.
"A traveller according to this story,

WORKS OF ART PRESERVED
Art World Interested in Uncovering of
Old Paintings in the Mosque Of
Saint Sophia.

An important result that may be
looked for whenever Constantinople
and the mosque of st. Sophia pass
from under the control Of the Turks
is the veritiCatIOn Of a belief, not gen.
orally known, that the interior walls
Of the building still hold in practically
perfect condition the characterization
with which the Byzantine artists deco
rated them, says a writer in Christian
Science Monitor. The statement Is
italian architect, Fossati, who was en-
plOyed by Sultan Abdu-ul-Meiid to put
the mosque in complete repair. To do
this work FOssati removed the mat
ting that lined the walls and took
down the huge disks, covered with
Arabic inscriptions, that here and there
Ornamented them; and behind these
coverings he found the work of the an
Client Byzantines. Hagia Saphia, taken
by the Turks in 1853, was converted
to their own uses by the addition Of
minarets and by covering the walls,
the religion Of its new possessors for
bidding them to make or destroy any
picture or statue of man. Fossati, with
the ancient glories of the Christian edi-
fee temporarily uncovered, made the
notes for his book, and painted colored
facsimiles of some of the mosaics; then
he sealed them from view by replac-
ing the coverings.

houses, corn cribs, granaries, or the
farm home itself, cannot be too strongly
accented. Life is too short for the
farmer to have anything but the best
home for himself and his family he
can afford; crops and live stock are too
valuable to be housed in anything but
buildings that will keep them in the
best condition possible. Good build
ings are profit producers, and during
the course of few years will pay for
themselves in the savings they make.
The time never was more OppOrtune
for farmers to secure the high-class
buildings they need. Livestock and
grains in fact, every product Of the
farm, are bringing record prices. The
cost of production also has risen. But
by having buildings that will enable
the farmer to perform the labor in the
quickest and least expensive way, and
that will keep crops and animals in the
best of condition, the business of farm
ing will be the more profitable.
Now that the end of the season when
the farmer is a most busy man is ap-
preaching, this is good time to plan
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1919-10-09

dicates. That was when 60-cent corn
was rarity. Now with the price
three times that amount, corn is too
valuable to be put into anything but
weather and rat-prOOf structure
one that will keep the grain in the
best of condition, with a minimum of
loss.
The modern farmer builds a modern
house for his corn. While it still is
called crib, it really is q high-Class
building, well constructed and
equipped so that the handling of the
crop is done easily and with a min
imum labor cost. The building is set
on a concrete foundation and has
concrete floor, that is proof against
the most determined of rats to get at
the corn. The building is substantial
ly erected, and it's interior arranged
SO that the corn is elevated and con-
veyed into the cribs, from which it
Is taken.

sign for corn crib that embOdies the
features that have been found best
in structures for this purpose. 1t viii

FLOOR PLAN

be noted that the building is extreme
ly unlike the old-fashiOned corn crib.
1t is a substantially-built building, %
by 40 feet in dimensions. It's exte-
rior has graceful lines and is an at
tractive addition to the farm building
group. The gambrel roof, with gabled
tower for the elevator head, makes it
a beauty. The building is of frame
construction and is tight, with the ex-

cribs, the location of which is shown
by the open walls.
Plenty of air is the one thing that
new corn needs so that it will not mold
or become widowed. At the same
time the roof projection and method
of putting on the fiat siding prevents
the rain from getting at the corn.
The floor plan shows the layout of
the interior of the building. Through
the center Of the structure is n con-
crete driveway, with sliding doors at
each end, which permit the team and
wagon to drive into the building, where
the corn is unloaded, and to leave by
the other end.

THOUGHT Doctor BROUGHT Baby.

A new family had moved into the
neighborhood. The days were ideal
for the six-weeks-old baby to spend
its sleeping time on the cool front
porch, and the mother took its bas-
ket out there, took necessary precau-
tons and went back into the house. 1t
was not long before the little girls in
the ncighborhood spied the little bun
die of humanity in its basket. But
none of them had seen the mother put
it out there. SO one Of them went
