method Of arranging the equipment -
that the work can be done easily and
quickly IL used in the modern dairy
barn. Also numerous pieces Of labor-
saving equipment are installed.
The stall partitions usually are Of
steel, set into the concrete door. These
partitions are easily kept clean and
sanitary. The floors Of the stalls arc
either Of concrete or some Of the less
hard floor materials, such as cork brick
or wood block. Back Of each stall IL .
gutter, which permits the refuse to be
washed to q drain whence It II piped
to a liquid manure tank.
Overhead Is q carrier track running
over both the litter alleys At the sides
Of the stable and over the feeding al
ley through the center Of the building.
The carrier that IL hung to the track
provides 4 means BY which the litter
can be removed to the manure piles
at the rear Of the stable and by which
the food can be distributed to the stain
head.
Drinking cups. which are connected
to the pipes from the water pressure
system are located at the stall head,
one cup for each two COWS. These
drinking cups or bowls are ingenious
devices. They have valve in them
that turns on the water a. the cows
press down their muzzles, and shuts
of the water as the cows raise their
heads. Careful watch has been kept
on cows in stables where there are
drinking cups, and It has been record
ed that there is little time In either
the day or night when one or more Of
the animals are not drinking. Records
Of milk production In the same sta
bles show that where there il con-
tinuous supply Of fresh water. the ami
mails give from 10 to 20 per cent more
milk.
Fresh feed during the winter . an
other important thing for profitable
dairy farm operation. At the end Of

KEROSENE LAMPuGHT BEST
Efficiency Of the Eye Declared to b
Best When yellow Flame
10 used.

There has long been an impression
that yellow light Ii moro agreeable to
the eye than that containing chiefly
the. green and blue rays, and 1t IL
generally believed. for example, by
many medical and technical men that
the kerosene flame produces a more
''rcstful" light than other illuminants
especially than incandescent solids.
This supposition has been submitted
to careful tests BY O. q. Ferree and
q. Rand, and the results have appear
ed In the Transactions Of the nlumi-
mating Engineering society, remarks
the Scientific American Monthly. The
experiments have compared. the kero-
sense flame with the light from the
carbon incandescent lamp. the Mazda
lamp and with Welsbach nantes con-
tanning various amounts Of cer:s, and
therefore varying In yellowness. The
standard Of comparison 10 the EN-
cheney Of the eye a. determined by
the ratio Of time during which stead
lily observed type b clear or blurred.
The results obtained from numerous
careful, prolonged experiments indi-
cate that there u some justification
for this impression, a. they indicate
that the efficiency Of the eye diminish
60 more rapidly with light from the
metal 6lament than with that from
kerosene, and decreasing yellownesa
in welsbach nantes also diminishes
this efficiency Of the eye. The au-
thors, however, ere not yet prepared
to state positively that yellow light
10 better than white. but merely that
yellow d better than green.

there are two silos, which combined
have sufficient capacity to provide the
animals this building viii house with
fresh feed all through the cold months
when the cows are inside.
It IL In such stables as this one
that present-day dairy farmers are
housing their herds and are making
them great deal more profitable In
'vestment than under the old condi-
lions. A modern dairy barn or COW
stable will pay for itself In increased
revenue In q few years.

the quicker the farmer gets his plans

M advantages and good features
- modern dairy barns and cows sta
bass have been pointed ont in these
articles numerous times, but they are
% important to the man who wants to
get the maximum Of profit from his
herd that they WIN bear repetition
many times.
Sunlight. fresh air and warmth are
the three things that make cows pro-
ductive and healthy. And nature fur
nishes all three without charge. The
dairy herd owner however, has to sup
ply the building In which natures
gifts may be conserved and put to
work for the proht Of the dairyman.
A COW stable designed to house the
herd In the most profitable way ID

ton. This is a one-story COW stable,

Of fresh air, and their surroundings

walls Of the building are e windows,
ID on each side. while In the monitor
part Of the roof there are a. many
more windows. equally distributed on
either side.
These windows are one Of the most
important features Of the building. In
the nrst place they face the east and

q than to produce heat to keep the

have been proven disloyal the as

prescribe loyalty as test OF eligibil-

thing to show their attitude was 9TH

The Pioneer has given the detailt

for Clearwater. county, compiled by

Clearwater county, with only 6,S7O
residents, will be the recipient Of
large benefits from the Babcock plan
Of 1000 miles hard surfaced trunk
highway system in the state. ~" <s:E~
There will be, 43.5 miles Of hard
surfaced roads constructed there at
an estimated construction cost Of
$4,000 a mile. y This means, that
81 5000 will be spent in the county
for this purpose. . Z
There are only 447 motor vehicles
registered. ) At the average rate Of
$18. a car, which is the suggested IL
cense figure, there will be only $8,046
paid into the state highway fund each
year %.SS $,.$ =. -
But at the rate Of saving estimated
by government statisticians Of two
cents a mile for >the operation Of
motor vehicles sover hard surfaced
roads, the, owners Of these cars will
save $8,94O, even if they only oper-
ate their vehicles over 1000 miles Of
these hard roads. ~. -. !. Il ~ =
Substracting the H43.5- miles Of
trunk highway from the $40 miles of
roads in the county leaves a total Of
:.776.5 miles of roads which will be
graded, graveled and maintained all
year from the county road and bridge
fund without increasing the tax rate.
Summing up the advantages to
Clearwater county, it is seen that
they will receive a gift Of 43.5 miles
of boulevard, 778.5 miles Of fine coun-
try roads and the saving in money by
operating their cars over the hard
roads. - .{.:-s =.
