WHERE THEY WOULD BE LOST
Deaf Mutes Had the Advantage in the
Noisy Subway, but How About

Senator Thomas j. Walsh Of Mon
tana and his secretary were returning
from a late session Of the senate one
night by way of the merry go-round
motor that runs through the subway.
This queer, though reputed to be
luxurious, motorcar makes more noise

and noise one usually sits with closed

however. two deaf mutes, utterly I'M

An expeditionary party, represent
Ing a west Australian railway league
and the commonwealth government,
has been travelling In the Northwest
and far north Of western Australia.
Some idea Of the immensely of this lit
ue-known corner Of the common
wealth may be gathered from the fact
that the party covered 1900 miles by
steamer along the coast, thence by a
motorcar traversed 1000 miles of
country. A vast belt of country was
found stretching eastward from the
Leopold ranges into the northern ter
ritory, capable Of carrying 100000

Of poor condition was seen by the

Soldiers of five wars have been
drilled beneath the John Pemberton
oak tree, Bristol, Virginia. Tennessee,
nominated for place in the hall
Of fame Of the American forestry
association at Washington by Mrs. III.
f. Lewis, secretary Of Virginia for
the Daughters Of the American Rev.
olution. Under this tree Col. John
Pemberton mustered his troops for
the battle of Kings Mountain. A
marker has been placed on the tree
by the Sycamore Shoals chapter, says
the American Forestry Magazine, In
making the announcement. The SOL
diers of the War of 1912 met here.
Then came the Mexican war and the
old tree saw men again leave their
homes to fight. Next came the
struggle between the states, and the
oak witnessed the drilling of men TO
fight one another in their own coun-
try. Then came the world war and
again the veteran oak saw our boys
answer their united country's call.

While consumers have been com
planning Of the increased cost of milk,
the lot of the producers has not been
a bed Of roses. High prices of feed
and the greatly increased cost of labor
are two factors that have made milk
and the other dairy products cost
more.
There is one way In which dairy
men can reduce their costs of produc-
ing milk. That Is by cutting the labor
cost. That can be done by conducting
his operatioe.

.-, ..-u % lie Oarn shows the
layout Of the COW stable. Through the
center of the stable runs litter alley,
along either side of which are 10 COW
stalls. On either side of the stable,
with the stalls facing them, are feeding
alleys. Over both the litter and feed
ing alleys Is q carrier track, which
enables the owner to remove the lit
ter and carry the feed to the hangers
mechanically. The dotted lines show
the course OF the carrier. At one end
the track runs out to the manure
pile or pit. At the other the track
connects the feeding alleys with the
feed room and silo chute.
The floor of the stable Is Of concrete
with steel stall partitions. At the rear
of the stalls, along either side of the
litter alley is gutter, pitched to a
drain, making It an easy matter to
flush out the refuse. 1t is profitable
plan to have the drain connected with
concrete tank for liquid manure.
Sunshine and fresh air are two
things that nature provides that cows
need indoors as well as out. At the
same time there should be no drafts on
the animals, especially in winter. This
barn is equipped with a modern
ventilating system. In the side walls
and following the slope of the roof
are ventilator shafts that are con-
nected with the suction ventilators on
the roof. These ventilators suck out
the foul air through the ventllating
The Clio messenger. (Clio, Mich.) 1907-current, 1920-09-02

shafts, and keep the air In the stable
sweet and clean. Seven windows on
each side of the stable permit the
entrances of sunshine. which helps TO
keep the stable sanitary.
When 1t is considered that fresh
water Is one of the necessities for
healthy, high-producing cows. Ii will
pay every dairyman who has herd
of any size to equip his barn with run
ming water connected with automatic
drinking cups at the stall heads. How
much water a COW will drink when 1t
is available, Is shown by a 24-hour
watch that was kept on stable con-
tanning "a animals. There was not a
minute in the "a hours when one of
the animals was not drinking. Tests
also have shown that a continuous
supply of fresh water in the stable
will increase the flow Of milk 10 per
cent.
Such barn as this Is not expensive
to build. Costs. however, vary in diff
ferent localities and 1t is not possible
to give figures on the cost of con-
struction of this building. consul-
tation with the local contractor and
lumber dealer will bring an estimate.
This should be done at once, If the
barn is to be finished by the time the
herd is brought into winter quarters.
Such a barn as this Is a good In
vestment on any farm where special
attention is paid to dairying. 1t will
save its cost in a few years In the
saving made In labor and in the In
crease of milk production. To save
labor requires that the labor saving
barn equipment be installed.
Costs of material that go into build
ings have been greatly reduced during
the last few months and better sup
ply of lumber and other materials

PROHIBITION CONVENTION.

The Prohibition State convention, to be
held in Dover next Thursday, will decide
whether to nominate ticket or indorse
candidates of other parties. 1t is likely
that it will name candidates for Prcsiden-
tial electors, and probably some Legislative
candidates, and it may also indorse candi-
dates of some of the other parties. The
following call has been issued for the con-
vention:
A convention of the Prohibition party is
called to assemble in the Court House At
Dover, on Thursday, September 23, 1920,
at IL o'clock a. M, standard time, for the
purpose of considering nominating elect
ors of President and Vice-President; en-
dorsipg MS candidates for executive and
legislative offices, candidates who can be
depended on to enforce the Eighteenth
Amendment and the Volstead act; and
selecting for all Offices persons who shall
represent the high ideals for which the
party has stood in the past.
1t will be a mass convention and all who
are in sympathy with these ideals are in
vited to participate.
The hand of fellowship will be gladly
extended to the newly enfranchiscd women
