PREVENT HAY FROM HEATING
Department of Agriculture Experts
Recommend Use of ventilators
Of Latticework.

Hsy, especially alfalfa or clover, is
likely to suffer damage through heat
ing in the barn. This can be prevented
by ventilation. To yentilate hay barn
the United States Department of Agri-
culture experts recommend the use of
lattice ventilators II to 10 inches
square and as long as convenient.
These ventilators. which look some
what like elongated crates, are made
with corners consisting Of 2 by 4
scantlings Slated together with mar
row boards II to 10 inches long. They
should be braced to prevent crushing.
The ventilators are laid in the hay
10 or u feet apart horizontally and
far enough apart vertically so that the
distance will not be more than 8 or 10
feet after the hay has settled. The
ends should come out to the edge of
the hay so as to permit free passage
of air. This will permit the carryi az
off of steam caused by evaporation and
will preserve the hay and prevent over
heating. The ventilators can be made
of various sizes of material, and If
strongly constructed, will last many
years.

LEAVES FOR WORK IN FRANCE

Lorne w. Barclay, director of the
national council, department of Edu-
cation, Boy Scouts of America, has
again been loaned for the summer to
the American committee for devastated
France of which Miss Anne Morgan
is chairman. Mr.. Barclay sailed for
France In May and will there direct
five scout camps. This work is prov
ing a notable contribution to the up
building Of war-stricken France. AS
Mr.. Barclay said In his recent report:
'These boys lived In ruined homes;
they have been out of school for five
years; there is no place for them to
find companionship In their villages
unless they go to the wine shops.
They have suffered so much that they
are undeveloped physically and mental
ly. yet they crave good wholesome edu-
cation and recreation. They only ask
the chance to grow into manhood with
all the best scout ideals of courage,
self-denial. honesty and endurance"
Many boy scout troops in the Uni
ted States have contributed $25 EACH
which means that each troop will have
as Its guest at one of the camps,

UNNECESSARILY himself by the expert

The results of over 200 experiments
