of the driveway are hay doors, through
which the hay from the wagons or
trucks can be lifted up into the hay
NOW which covers the entire upper
floor Of the barn. Because of the gam
brel roof this storage room Is enor-
nous and will hold vast amount Of
hay and feed.
On the other side Of the driveway is
the horse section Of the barn, and
some special rooms There are six
regular horse stalls, one box stall and
double stall. These stalls are of
the latest type and face a short feed
alley, at the end of which is a steel
hay rack.
In front of this horse section are
the feed and harness rooms and sew
eral bins for mixing feeds. A feed
chute from above empties into the
main feed room and a hay chute is
located In the small pRssageway out.

This building, while costing a little
more than a poor barn, will soon pay
for its cost. 1t will help to stimulate
production and, just as important, pro-
mote satisfaction among the help. Sat
isfied help is cheaper than a contin-
ualy changing personnel. Better farm
buildings will do much to cut down
the cost of farm operation.

Farmers at the present time are not
liable to be the most cheerful people
In the world, but they are always
good gamblers. Year after year in
some communities the crop has failed
entirely, yet the men have come back
the next year and tried 1t over again.
Just because prices are not as high
as they might be to give the farmer
a fair return on his investment and
labor is ne sign that the farmer will
discontinue operations. In fact, the
man who was farslghted enough did
not depend entirely upon grain crops,
but built up dairy herd that would
bring In regular return summer and
winter. Building on the farm will not
stop because many farmers will store
their crop until favorable turn in
the price trend.
But there is no doubt about the
value Of herd to keep up the In

Annie Lauries girlhood was similar
to that of any other lass of her class.
As she grew up, however, she became
the most beautiful Dumfriesian of the
day and the heroine of the ballad
which has made her charms lmmor-
tai. As she was unusually beauti-
full, II was only natural that she
should have many admirers; among
the foremost was Douglas Finland.
Finland, after the accepted practice
of the day, wrote a poem to Annie
Laurie. II Is from this poem that the
lines which form the song are taken.
But 1t was not the poet Annie Laurie
loved. She married his rival. Alex

after.

Hirohito Is Regent Of Japan

The appointment of Crown Prince
Hirohito as regent of the empire, Is
likely to be of tremendous importance
to Japan, especially in view of his
recent trip to Europe. He is the first
crown prince of Japan in all the CEN
turtles to go abroad and he learned
a lot on his travels. The japanese
people welcomed his return with tu-
multuous applause-and the police
didn't even try to stop the applause,
Notwithstanding the fact that noise
and reverence do not go together In
Japan. Moreover, Hirohito has ac-
tually made public speeches since his
return.
In fact, japanese officials who
were with him on his travels found
him so democratic that 1t took their
breaths away He moved in crowds
whenever he could. He learned bridge
and taught 1t to his friends; took up
golf, tennis and billiards. He even
likes Occidental opera music.

patience with "the little black rag" Of
