Architect Aids in Effects.
Some time ago Dr.. Guthrie conlided
his scheme. TO try color effects in
church TO Claude Bradgon, the archi'
tect. 1t made strong appeal. and
the architect has worked enthusiast
cally on the plans which have culmin.
ated in the present device.
"Mr. Bagdons beautifully designed
lanterns do not conflict. In design
they are agreeable to consider, but
they do not demand attention DR..
Guthrie stared
"The light is diffused, not through
plain glass, but by means of lenses,
and finally filtered through opalescent
glass. Though we use color in the
church it is not thrown on the altar,
which is pure gold and on which pure
white light shines.
This new device has been COM
pared falsely to a theatrical type Of
analogy between the stage and our
lighting-that is both theater ana

minds must be carried thither, either
TO stage or to altar.
THE theater, on the other hand, Is

cal mise-en.scene.

rhetoric. These certain moods mus.

gone as far as 1t can go and that for
advancement we must turn TO color. "

GOOD HIGHWAYS IN JAMAICA
Island In British West Indies Is Awak-
enine to Realization OF
Improved Roads.

The island Of Jamaica. in the Brit
iJh West Indies, rich in natural re-
sources and active In trade, is awak-
ening to a realization of the import
ance of good roads. The advent of
the automobile has had much to do
In the development Of an agitation
which now promises valuable results.
The system of modern highways
which it is proposed to build will
mean the speedy development of parts
of the island now more or less neg
lected because Of their practical in
accessibility. Completion of radial
system of good roads would undoubt-
eddy be followed by general adop-
ton of the motortruck for conveying
the products to the sea. The In
creased speed and efficiency thus &C.
quired would tend to promote larger
production, and thereby increase the
wealth of this already industrious is
land.

GOOD ROADS BOOST PROFITS
of Cotton on Poor Road, Man on
Good Roads HauIs Four.

The matter of opportunity in mar
netting is worthy of consideration. For
.he sake of example, suppose that two
farmers living in separate counties,
hut at equal distances from the cotton
market, learn by telephone that cotton
has advanced in price 81 a bale. The
man living on bad road can lmme-
diately haul one bale of cotton TO
market, while the other can haul -four
bales because he lives on good road.
The rise in price means profit of SA
to the one man and only 81 to his
reighbor.

MOLASSES FOR DAIRY STOCK
Especially Valuable Where Cows Arc
Not Permitted to Exercise
Replaces Green Feed.

One of the helps of the livestock
feeder which is being used more gen.
orally every day is the crude, or low
grade, molasses from a sugar mill.
The value of the feed has been found
to be not only in the actual nutrition
content, as indicated by the analysis,
but because of its quality-not exact
ly succulency. but akin to that-which
makes it an appetizer. Especially is
it valuable where the COWS are not
permitted TO run on pasture or where
they are not permitted to exercise.
The molasses acts both as a digester
and tonic and takes the place of green
feed which tends to keep the cows
healthy and increases all their normal
functions, such as the milk producing
powers. Then, too, dairy cows which
are confined in small areas often lose
their appetites. and when they do milk
production naturally drops off. By
adding a little mOlasSes to the ration
they will regain their appetites and be-
sides eat more than they did without
the molasses, which of course in.
creases their milk production.

MATERIAL FOR ROAD MAKING
ter of Traffic Is First Important
Essential.

Professor House Of the Colorado Az
ricultural college is one of the best
known engineers In Colorado. He has
been head of the civil engineer depart
ment at that college for several years
and has always been in close contact
with the affairs of the state. In speak
ing about roads, Professor House
says:
"a great deal of agitation Is being
carried on at the present time, con-
corning the constructor of concrete
roads for Colorado. That some of our
roads should be paved in this way.
there is no question, but l think we
should carefully guard against over
doing the matter. In order to be justi-
fable, road improvements must return
in economic and social benefits an
amount at least equal to the interest,
depreciation and maintenance, over
and above those of the old road.
ut is exactly the same as in ordi-
nary business. The amount that should
be invested in road improvement is
that sum which will give the largest
annual returns in benefits to the peo-
pie of the community.
1T may be real economy to spend
$4,000 per mile for one road and only
$1,000 per mile for another, if the for
mer carries more than ten times the
service and costs just ten times as
much.

ject of concrete surfacing for roads of

the roads, and careful study of the

quality and condition, but as a rule
WHY sound grains in good condition
should be fed to poultry, and moldy
grains should never be used. The
locally grown grains, which poultry
will eat freely, may generally be used
10 the best advantage, say poultry spe-
cialists of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. A scratch mix
ture, consisting of whole or cracked
grains, made of a combination of any
two or more of those mentioned, can
be fed to advantage. 1t is not advis-
able to feed continuously any single
grain, especially corn
A mash made of ground grains, mill
products, and meat scrap should be
fed usually in addition to the scratch
mixture. COrnmeal. wheat bran, wheat
middlings, and mea- scrap form the
basis of a good mash, while corn chop.
corn-and-cob meal, ground oats, and
low-grade -four may be added or SUBJ
stituted to advantage. Just as good
results can be obtained from simple
mash, containing three or four ground
grains and meat scrap. as from high
ly complicated mash, containing ten
or twelve products.
A large number of commercial mix
lures, both of scratch grains and of
ground grains, are prepared for poul-
try feeds, but the value of mixed COM
mercial feed depends upon the COM
position and the quality of the grains
used in its preparation. If poultry
raiser does not produce any grain and
keeps a comparatively small number
of fowls. it is often better for him to
buy commercial mixed feeds. The
average farmer, however should feed
homegrown grains, supplemented with
mill feeds and meat scrap, and the
large poultryman usually can mix his
own feeds to best advantage. When
two or three kinds of grain are raised,
and ground or mill feeds are not read
fly available. good results can be OBJ
tanned by feeding only the grains,
provided they are supplemented with
meat scrap or milk.

Plan of a Simple Backyard Poultry House.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Piano and packing boxes can be
successfully converted into adequate
backyard poultry houses, but many
owners of small fiocks prefer a build
ing erected especially for the purpose,
because it usually presents better
appearance in the back yard. For
such, poultry specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture
suggest plans for a poultry house of
the shed or slope-roof type that will
make a small flock comfortable and
be neat in appearance.
This building is by s feet square,
and is feet high in front and feet
high in the rear. The house may be
made higher with little extra cost and
would be more convenient to work in.
The ventilator in the rear is not need
ed in the northern part of the country.
The roof is covered with roofing pa
per. The same material may be used
on the sides or If desired the cracks
NAV be covered with wooden strips
three inches wide. Such house is
large enough for a flock of 20 hens.
Dry Floor Necessity.
If the soil is well drained and re-
mains dry no floor need be used in
the house. Often a slight dampness
can be corrected by filling up the floor
several inches above the outside
ground with sand, gravel or dry dirt.
Three or four inches of the surface of
the floor should be removed and re-
placed with fresh earth once or twice
a year. The run should be spaded up
at least once year. If the ground
is so wet or damp that this condition
cannot be corrected by filling, it is
best TO provide a board floor, as this
will help TO keep the house dry, will
allow easier cleaning, and will pro
mote the general health and welfare
of the hens. A house with a board
floor should be set on posts or blocks,
so that it is 5 TO - inches above the
ground. When this space is left the
floor will not rot so quickly and rats
will not be so likely to take refuge
under the house.
The dropping boards and roosts
should be placed against the back
wall. Here they are out of the way
and also are least likely to be reached
by drafts. The dropping boards
should be about 90 to 80 inches from
the floor, depending on the height of
the building. This gives space enough
under them so that the hens have
room to exercise and is not too high
for the heavier hens to fly up TO. The
roosts should be 8 or inches above
the dropping boards. If more than
single roost is used. they should be
on the same level; otherwise all the
hens will try to crowd upon the high
est rooSt. A piece of . by 4 or by
8, laid on edge and with the upper
corners rounded off, makes a good
roost. A pole, or even a piece of
board or 8 inches wide, may be
used. If the roost is of light material
and fairly long, 1t should be support
ed in the center. as we'll as at the
ends, TO prevent it from sagging bad
ly. An allowance Of I to 10 inches
of roost space per fowl, according to
the size of the birds, should be made
If more than one roost is used. they
should be placed about 10 inches
apart.

APPLES OF FINEST QUALITY
Always Find Ready Market No Matter
What Shape or coIor-Conditions
Change Preferences.

Most markets can always find use
for good quality of apple, no matter
what its shape or the color of its skin
may be. 1t is probably unreasonable
to say that one market will take only
certain varieties while another will
take other varieties. Conditions are
always changing preferences. For in
stance, due to prices, there was, in a
certain year, a noticeably increased de-
mand for boX-packed fruit in some cit
les known as barrel-apple markets.
The certainty of securing uniformly
sized. highly finished fruit at extreme
ly low prices was the only reason
given for this condition, say fruit spe-
cialists of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.

with tie partition in the middle
serves very well. each box forming
two nests. The top is removed, the
box laid on its side, and strip 3
to inches wide nailed across the
lower front. Nests can be fastened
against the walls of the house or set
on the floor. 1t Is preferable to fasten
them against the walls, as they take
too much floor space if set on the
floor. One nest should be provided
for each four or five hens.

LIBERAL FEEDING URGED

Dairy extensionists and au-
thorities at University farm, st.
Paul, Mimi, are agreed that a
policy Of liberal feeding with
dairy cattle is profitable and
should be pursued wherever cir
cumstances make it possible.
The importance Of adequate
feeding has been shown time
and time again. In one in
stance which may now be cited,
feeding costs were increased in
a year from $53 per COW TO $50,
but the income from each cow
increased from $129 to $21S in
the same interim, so that for
an extra expenditure of $50
profits We're increased $50 per
COW.

half of the total. The number of as
sociations found in each of these four
states is as follows: Alabama, Z {;
Pennsylvania, 81; Mississippi, II; and
South Carolina, II. Three of these
leading states are in the cotton belt.
Dairying is comparatively new in that
part of the country, and the men 60
ing into the business are building on
the right foundations from the start.
One of the important foundations of
effective and lucrative dairying is CO.
operation, and the extension work
carried on by the dairy division and
by the various state agricultural col
leges has been the means of introduce
ing efficient methods at the outset
wherever dairying IL taken up in the
South.
Pennsylvania Is an old-established
dairy state, but has taken to the bull
association idea in a remarkable man
ner, and has IN fact the largest num-
Der of all.

MARKETING APPLES

Information secured from ap-
ple-market Investigations by
the United States Department
of Agriculture indicate that rel
atively low prices in large crop
years in the beginning of the
season make for quick move
ment and rapid consumption,
with the natural result of bet
ter season averages; that mar
keting of inferior grades along
with good fruit in large crop
years is not profitable; that the
effective operation of grade and
package laws may be counted
upon to aid in stabilizing APP
pie markets.

Corn and Wheat Are Best and About
Equal in Feeding Value-Scratch
Mixture Is Good.

Corn, wheat, oats, and barley are
the principal grains fed to poultry;
kafir corn and buckwheat are used al
so, but are not so generally available
and usually cost more. Corn and
wheat are the two best grains and are
about equal in value as poultry feeds,
although wheat can be fed alone bet
ter than corn, which is inclined to be
fattening. Oats and barley, on account
of their hulls and higher fiber content,
are not so good as corn or wheat Rye
