Warning as to Our
Waning Vitality

(BY LEE HERBEKT SMITH, M. d.
Every man should take stock of his
physical condition Just as frequently as
be takes stock of his financial condition,
thereby learning his weak spots and tax
ing measures to repair them before it is
too late.
In the winter CT spring is the best
time to take stock of ones condition.
Ii the blood is thin and watery, face pale
or pimply, generally weak, tired and
~listless, one should take a tonic. One
that will do the spring ''house-cleaning,"
an old-fashioned herbal remedy that was
used by everybody nearly so years ago
is still safe and sane because it contains
no alcohol or narcotic. This blood tonic,
extracted from wild roots and banks,
was first put out by DR.. Pierce in ready
to-use form and since then has been
sold by the million bottles as DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. It's always
ethCacious in the winter or spring when
the blood is run down and you need q
wholesome tonic. This is natures tonic,
which restores the tone of the stomach,
activity of the liver and steadiness to the
nerves, strengthening the whole system.
Send lOc to DR.. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, N. Y, for trial package o ftablets.
Then TO keep the liver and bowels
regular and to carry away the poisons
within, it is best to take castor oil or a
vegetable pill, made UP of May-apple,
aloes, ialap, and sugar-coated, to be had
at most drug stores, known DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets.

The COW stable is designed to ac-
commOdate "a animals in single stalls,
and four others in pens. The cows
are faced out, a feed alley. five feet
wide, being between the wall and the
line VI stanchions. The litter alley
runs through the center of the build
ing and is eight feet -four inches wide,
forming a driveway through the barn.
The advantage of this arrangement
is that a team can be driven in one
door, pass between the stalls, ana 90

At the rear Of the COW barn are two
feed rooms, connected with the silos.
There also is a toilet room here.
The horse barn will accommodate
ten animals, eight in stalls and iva
in box stalls. The farm Office Is at
n side of the entrance and the hur-
ness room on the other.
While only the general scheme of
equipment for this building is shown
the plans contemplate the use of many
speciaities that make for efficiency n

are equipped with Storm-tight, easy

each stall, providing clean, fresh wa

Floor Plan of Combination Barn.

But he has realized that with the prop
er buildings he could have eliminated
much OF the waste around the farm,
and have made more profit. Now
he has a chance to get the buildings
that have been denied him during war.
A combination dairy and horse barn,
such as is shown In the accompanying
illustration, Is the ideal building, since
it brings under one roof all the work
of caring for the live stock. Construct
cd with a trussed rafter gambrel self
supporting roof, arranged convenient
ly so that the work can be performed
with the least number of steps, equip
ped with all the labor-saving de-
vices. and built as sanitary as barns
can be made. This building will prove
n valuable addition TO the farm group.
While this barn will add much -
the at~tractiveness of the farm land
scape, what will appeal to the business
sense of the farmer is its interior.
The floor plan that is shown gives the
details of It's arrangement. The main

Taken all together, the plan shown
gives all the practical features that a
modern barn should have to make the
animals comfortable and productive.
