WORK
OF A KENTUCKIAN
in BATTLE.

Three acts of conspicuous daring in

he was leading his company against

machine gun fire which threatened to

ed his way around its flank, leaving
the two soldiers in front. When he
got within ten yards of the gun it
ceased firing and four of the enemy
appeared, three of whom were shot by
Lieut.. Woodfll, The fourth, an Of
ficer rushed at Lieut.. woodfill, who
attempted to club the officer with his
rifle After a hand-to- hand struggle,
Lieut.. Woodfill killed the officer with
his pistol His company thereupon
continued to advance until shortly af-
terward another machine gun nest was
encountered. Calling his men to fol-
low, Lieut., Woodfill rushed ahead of
his line in the face of heavy fire from
the nest, and when several of the enc
my appeared above the nest he shot
them, capturing three other members
of the crew and silencing the gun. A
few minutes later this officer, for the
third time, demonstrated conspicuous
daring by charging another machine
gun position, killing five men in one
machine gun pit with his rifle He
then drew his revolver and started TO
jump into : the pit when two other
gunners only few yards away turned
their gun on him. Failing to kill them
with his revolver, he grabbed a pick
lying near by and killed both of them.
Inspired by the exceptional courage
displayed by this officer, his men
pressed on to their objective under
severe shell and machine gun fire.
Lieut.. Woodfill is married and lives
at l67 Alexandria Pike, Fort Thomas,

Moose Charged the Hunter.

News has leaked out from Freder-
ickton, N. B., that a Mr.. Adams of
that city had an exciting time of it
or his moose hunting trip last fall.
Adams was moose hunting with J. b.
Smith when they came across a male
and female moose feeding The fe-
male is protected by law. Both shot
Mt the bull moose, but the bullets had
little effect. The bull moose started
to run and Adams ran after the ami
NAL shooting when opportunity pre-
sented.
One bullet so angered the moose
that it turned and charged the hunt
err. Adams, seeing the animal COM
ing his way, also turned and ran.
The moose gained and was snorting
with rage when Smith, taking care
full aim, toppled the animal over.
When they examined the moose IL bull
lets were found in the carcass. The
animal dressed about GOO pounds. The
autlers were preserved.

so constructed that the labor can be
performed with the least amount of
effort The farmer who is making the
most money out of his livestock is
the farmer who has a modern, we'll
built barn, equipped with the labor
saving devices.
Many farmers are now considering
building a new barn, or hog house,
granary, or some other necessary
building. To the man who wants a
medium-sized barn, arranged so that
modern equipment can be installed,
the design shown in the accompany
ing illustration will appeal. Here is
q barn that in exterior appearance, in
terror arrangement and size will suit
the needs of most farmers. It's di-
mansions are 81 by so feet, a size
sufficient to house II COWS and eight
horses, or 20 animals in all.
This is what is called a gambrel
roof barn and will make a fine addi-
ton to any farm building group. How
the first floor is arranged and equipped
is shown in the floor plan accompany
ing the view of the exterior of the
barn. The rear section of the ground
floor is set off for the cows; the front
part for the horses and their equip
ment. Through the center of the barn
runs the feed alley, with an overhead
carrier track that runs to the silo
chute. On either side of the barn
is the litter alley. Connected with the
center carrier track is another that
runs over both alleys, so that the
manure can easily be taken to the pit
at one side of the rear of the build
ing.
On either side of the cow stable are
six stalls, while in the horse barn are
four stalls and two box stalls. The
latter can be turned into single stalls,
should the owner desire. The floor
of this building is of concrete, with
cutters at the rear of the stalls to
make cleaning easy. The cows are
faced in, so that their backs are to
the light.
Sunshine and fresh air, together
with a good supply of fresh water, are
what cows require to be kept at the
height of productivity. Sunshine is
natures germ killer. This design pro-
vjdes a continuous row of windows. so
that the sunshine can hit the litter
alley and the cutters Foul air shafts
are provided. The shafts run through
the side walls to the ventilator placed

WHY?--- Controls scab, black scruf and

HOW?-Use. corrosive sublimate Dis
solve ounces in one gallon of hot wa
ter. Dilute to 80 gallons. Remove
dirt, from potatoes, it weak ems the SOL
ution. Soak first lot of potatoes one
one half hours, second lot II hour,

AS many potatoes as the solution will
cover, may be treated at one time.
Handle potatoes loose in clean bag or
