CONCRETE FEEDING FLOORS
Farmers in all parts OF the state are
making concrete feeding floors fo1
their cattle sheds because they find
that they pay, according to N. H. Hoff
man of the agricultural engineering
extension department Of the Iowa
State college. &sSs4 "'
Because work is lighter in the fall,
no better season could be selected for
putting in a concrete floor. There is
no danger of injury from the light
frosts that may occur, although a hard
freeze will cause considerable damage
to concrete that has not set. A cover
ing of canvas or burlap will afford
good protection from injury. Until
the concrete has set it should also be
protected from the cattle, A, farmer

Gently had his entire floor spoiled by
the trampling OF his cattle on the new
ly laid concrete. Most OF the floors
are six inches in. thickness and are
made into ten foot squares.
Some farmers are putting in manure
pits at the lower end of the feeding
floors. These pits include cisterns
which catch the liquid manure. Full

floors may be had by writing to the

 Edward L. Wynn, salesman for the Lexington company, who was respon- sible for the sale of the car to the negro woman, was in Pine Bluff this week Investigating the whereabout of the woman. He had been informed that she dealt in fraternal real estate, and when he called the woman's sister on the phone, found out where she was by stating that he had some real estate in Little Rock which he wanted to sell.

 Six. That the United States re- serves the right to withdraw un- condtionally at the end of ten years, or at least to terminate then her obligations under article ten These interpretations, Mr. Taft wrote, could be made without weak ening the covenant The argument of administration senators against inclusion of any such provisions in the ratification has been, however, that any qualification at all would necessitate re-negotiation with the other nations and encourage them to adopt reservations.
