consideration is the interior arrange

will make the work of caring for the
animals easy to perform and will keep
the cows and horses healthy and capa-
BILE of doing their best work Is a prime
essential.
A medium-sized farm, such as Is
found In the central West and other
sections Of the country. does not re-
quire a very large barn, unless the
farmer specializes in dairy products.
But every farmer. II he is to conduct
his farm along the lines that yield
him the greatest profit, has fair
sized herd of cows-a dozen, or more.
If these animals are to be kept at their
most productive stage they must have
comfortable habitation In the winter
time.
A barn that Is adapted to the needs
of great majority of farmers is
shown in the accompanying design. 1t
is frame structure. set on concrete
foundation of the gambrel-roof type.
The dimensions are SO by 50 feet @

fell down n companion way. 1t would
bave been an ordinary accident for
anyone except pitcher. His pitching
arm was under him as he fell and liga-
ments were torn.
Chalmers did not pay much atten-
tion to the injury until the following
spring when he found he could not use
his arm. He never was able to pitch
many games after that and in 1915
was sent to New York only to be re-
leased shortly after the training trip.
Pat Moran decided to give him an
other chance and regained him and he
won eight games and lost nine In that
season, but he never was the Chalmers
of 1911, although once In while he
did show strenks approximating his
former greatness. He was soon sent
to the minors. when still under the
thirty-year mark.
Pat Moran often said that Chalmers
would have been fully as great as
Alexander had 1t not been for that

Joe Woods Arm Gone.
Joe Wood of the Red Sox was the
master finger of the American league
In 1912 and topped remarkable sea-
son in the championship race by pitch
ing Boston to victory In the lengthy
world series that year.
The strain of that year was SO
severe that Woods arm gave way and
he never was of much account to Bos-
ton after that. In 1912 he won "a
games, but in 1913 could turn In only
13 wins. quite slump. Later Wood
was sold to Cleveland and seeing that
he could not pitch again he went into
the outfield and started second sue
cessful professional career, this time
as a gardener. And yet Wood was
only twenty-three years old when he
hurt his arm.
There are many more instances of
budding young pitchers with fame be-
fore them who were suddenly rustled
out of the baseball arena because they
injured the delicate machinery of their
wings.

foul air. These vent shafts connect
with the ventIlator on the roof, suck
ing out the foul air and creating
air.
The features named have been dis
covered by farm-building architects to
be especially valuable In keeping the
animals healthy and productive. While
it is not shown In this plan, every
farmer who has a water-pressure sys-
TEN extends 1t into his barn, placing
pipes so that they carry fresh. running
water to each stall. From the individ-
ual drinking cups at each manger the
animals have constant supply or
water. 1t has been shown that such
equipment increases milk production
more than 10 per cent.
Every product of the farm and the
live stock that every farm has on 1t
are too valuable nowadays not to be
housed In weather-tight and healthful
buildings. Farm products are bring
ing high prices. not that they are out
duction. but are high enough so that
the farmer cannot afford to waste
them. The right kind of house
means an Increased income. as the
damage done by weather and rats and
other animals is considerable unless
the barn and granary are so construct
ed that they cannot get in to damage
the grain. hay, etc.
Just now farmers are in excellent
financial condition to build the build
ings that are needed on the farms.
They will find that costs are higher
than before the war, but building
prices have not increased in so great
The Ordway new era., 1919-09-12

proportion as the prices they are re-
ceiving for their products.
The cost of the barn shown here will
vary In different localities. according
to local conditions. By consulting the
local building contractor and building
material dealer 1t will readily be found
how much of an investment such
barn as this will require. Also. these
building experts can give the prospec-
tive builder much valuable advice
about building.
Building barn or any other farm
building that is needed Is good busl-
ness right now. The cost will not be
lower for some years to come. and in
the meantime the farmer has con-
venient. labor-saving and waste-reduc-
ing building.

NEW MAPS URGENTLY NEEDED
Assertion That Only About Forty Per
Cent Of the Country Has Been
Accurately Marked.

1t will astonish most people to learn
that only about 40 per cent Of the
100000 square miles Of the United
States have been accurately mapped.
and that much of that will have to be
gone over again because of the rough
methods originally used and because
of Typographical change since 1t was
done.
The authority for these statements
Is DIR. E. Lester Jones of the United
States coast and geodetic survey, says
the New York World.
That topography may change much
is illustrated by the fact that Fire
Island entrance, Long Island. N. Y,
has changed its position four miles In
so years.
In an article on photography in war
time L. P. Clerc Of Paris suggests that
Typographical maps of states or even
of whole countries can be prepared
from photographs taken from airplanes
far more simply and accurately than
by surveying.
DIR. Jones points out the limitations
Of airplane photography; this can
scarcely yet help in measuring eleva-
tions, for example. but he says that in
testing the correctness of present day
maps the airplane could be of great
value, as 1t would be quicker to send
1t through the air taking photographs
of the ground than it would be to
resurvey such vast areas.

Pitching arms are as fragile as Dres-
lien china. More than one young fling
er nearing the crest of his career has
had to pop out of the pastiming be-
cause he was unfortunate enough to
derange his hurling apparatus.
A fresh case bringing this thought
10 mind has been the experience of
Ferd Schupp, the brilliant New York
southsider. who in 1917 pitched the
Giants to a pennant by winning "a
games out of % starts and followed
this feat by banking the White Sox
5 to 0 in the fourth game of the
worlds series that fall.
Break Down Of Schupp.
When the season of 1910 opened Nc
graw thought he had one of the best
pitchers in the country, but something
happened to Schupp's arm and the big
winner Of 1917 could only pitch 33 in
nings in the whole season OF 1913 and
was officially charged with one defeat
and not credited with any wins.
1t was thought that long rest
would restore the strength to
Schupp's arm, but on the training trip
IL was soon evident tnuI Ine tTOuDle
had not been removed. and while Nc
Graw held on to the lefthander he
finally traded him to st. Louis. This
is rough on Schupp. who now is just
twenty-seven years old, and had a big
future and fat pay envelope ahead
of him.
Case Of Chalmers.
There never was more pathetic
case of pitching career ruined by
an injured arm than that of George
Chalmers, the former Phil. Chal-
mers came to the PILLS in the
fall of 1910 and his debut was to blank
the Giants. In 1911 he showed prom
ise of developing into a star. But
something happened in the fall of
1911.
After the close of the season
Chalmers went on playing jaunt to
Cuba with n number of other pills.

maximum number of animals and a

AS this barn is laid out in the floor
