haymow. One of the most impor-
tant problems of the barn builder Is
the framing of the roof rafters. By
certain standard methods he can build
a roof that will not only be proof
against the strongest winds and
heaviest storms but at the same time
it can be so built as to allow for a
high NOW with no posts out in the
center of the floor.
On the lower floor are located the
stalls, 40 in all. A driveway cuts
through the barn in the center, short
dimension, and provides means OF
entrance for trucks and other vehicles
loaded with hay and other supplies to
be stored in the NOV above. Each
stall has window providing light and
air to the animal occupant. The rows
Of stalls face in toward a central feed
ing alley running the length Of the
building at right angles to the main
driveway. These stalls are steel with
steel stanchions and hangers. The
stall floors have been paved with cork
brick to provide a soft restful surface
for the animals. The main, floor is
solid concrete, contoured so as to pro-
vide cutters in the rear of the stalls
for drainage and litter and pits for the
managers in front of the stalls.
Along the side walls at various inter
vals are foul-aIr shafts for drawing
off the poisonous air which accumu-
lates very fast. These shafts are con-
nected with roof ventilators which
supplement the natural ventilation
provided by windows, etc. Fresh air 4
inlets along the stall floor provide q
constant supply of fresh air currents,
which keep the animals stimulated
and consequently in better condition
for more production. Another inn

GAY CoLoRS FOR THE SKIRTS

nent; White Flannel With Con.
Ventional Designs.

A novelty material is being shown
by a manufacturer Of separate skirts.
This Is a white flannel with conven-
tional designs in bright colors, print
ed to give sort Of stripe effect, al
though these patterns run only about
halfway up the skirt. The colors are
gay reds and green's or purples, and
are fast, it is said.
Another novelty is a white flannel
skirt with four panels, two back and
two front, Of knife plalts, the plain
portions Of the skirt being painted
with gayly colored butterflies. A skirt
which is said to be a number much
in demand is of rose tweed with the
double fringe side trimming, the
pockets being crescent shaped, fin
ished of with embroidered arrows.
This model is made up in all the
popular shades and is for immediate
wear.
A covert skirt is plated, with a
darker pattern in brown showing be-
tween, the belt unusually wide and
finished off with long fringes Of to-
bacco brown silk.
Many silk types are found in ro-
shanara crepe, while a black and
white striped wool forms a checker
board border about six inches wide.

and equipment for quickly removing
litter and keeping the barn in tip-top
shape from sanitary standpoint.
Inevitably, the COW living in pleasant
surroundings will show her apprecia-
tion by increased production, whereas
II conditions are the reverse her
lessened ability to produce more and
better milk will be quite marked. The
crux of the care Of dairy herd is
the barn In which they are housed. We
take 1t for granted that If the farmer
has enough foresight to provide a
good barn he certainly will not provide
the wrong kind of feed. His mind
does not work that way.
Such a farmer will build a barn of
the character shown here. This a
handsome building, practical but at
tractive in design and certainly eff
f1ciently laid out.
A building will be just as strong as
Is it's foundation. Here we have a
solid concrete foundation surmounted
by frame structure held together by
heavy timbers and covered by service
able siding. Rising as a suitable cover
is a high gambrel roof, permitting of
ample space for large unobstructed

milk from contented COWS" Is The
slogan made famous by one. Of the
largest producers of canned milk in
the world. In their methods, in their
advertising, they have hammered away
at this one all-lmportant idea. And
how have they made it possible2 BY
housing the cows in well-built barns
that have plenty Of fresh air, plenty
of sunshine, clean and resilient stall
floors, humane stanchions and stalls
Vernon Parish Democrat., 1922-05-11

portant item in stall equipment is the
drinking cup located just outside each
stanchion. At any time of the day or
night the animal has access to fresh
water, which is one Of the most i'm
portant parts Of the milk. In cold
days, there is no need for driving the
animals out to a trough which is
covered with ice.
The equipment In this barn for re-
lieving the farmer of some of his
heaviest work is also interesting. Yd4
will note over each litter alley and the
feed alley between the stalls that
there Is an overhead carrier track.
This track is used to carry away the
litter from the stalls to the manure Dit
and, in the case Of the feed carrier,
to carry the feed from the feed room
to the various stalls, eliminating all
wheelbarrow pushing. This track car
rier method has been found to be one
OF the most effective means of keeping
the help satisfied. It takes much of
the drudgery out of their work.
In addition to the stalls there are
calf, COW and bull pens, feed room and
tool room. The barn is SO by 106 feet,
A 16-fOot silo Is also provided.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence Of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
itB remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
90 many applicants for insurance are re-
Sected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
chat they have the disease.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles Of two sizes,
medium and large. However, if you wish
first to test this great preparation send
ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y, for sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

new SPORT SHOES
Season at Hand for Footwear in
Variety Of Leathers.
Many Styles Available for Street
Wear, Formal Occasions and
for Games.

In buying shoes, says a fashion
writer, one must now look ahead to
the season In which sport costumes,
wool hose or silk and wool, or silk lisle
In all Of the soft colors, will be worn
with footwear of the sport order in
a variety Of feathers. A shoe Is not
In the sport class simply because there
Is a dominant interest in sportwear.
Sport shoes are for street, golf and
walking, but for dress and semidress
the pretty straps In patent, satin, bro
cade and suede are correct. There
are a number of new styles, including
straps with jeweled buckles for eve
ming wear, suedes and satins for eve
ming wear, while buck with fringed
tongues for street and sport wear In
summer, and gold cloth mules for the
boudoir.
1t is well to get proper definition
of sport footwear. There is a diff
ference between sport shoes and
sports shoes. The first term is gen
orally applied to a rather wide va
riety of footwear that is used quite
generally for street wear in summer.
These shoes are made Of a variety
of materials on rather broad toe lasts
carrying fiat, broad heels, and are
frequently fitted with rubber soles.
The second term Is used to desig-
nate footwear intended for use for
some particular game or sport and
used exclusively, or nearly so, for
that sport, such as football, baseball,
bowling, basketball and track, etc.
Right at this minute "the craze"
so called, is for smoked feathers and
coffee shades of elk, horse and calf,
and white and pearl buck. The smoked
feathers are very popular for the new
footwear.
White buck is one of the most pop
ular Of our sport feathers. It is used
in footwear for large variety of sport
and outing wear.
1t should be mentioned that the
pearl grays still retain their popularity
in calf and buck.
Black patent feathers are smart in
fiat heeled oxford styles.
Full Louis and baby Louis heels
divide honors in dress styles.
Flat and one-inch heels are favored
for sports wear.

BLOUSE PART OF THE SUIT
Garment Adds to Two-Plece or Three
Piece Costume; Embroidery Very
Much In Favor.

The Partisan designer Is taking great
interest this spring in blouses, which
are really part of the three-piece or
two-piece costume suit, and likewise
vests, which seem to be a necessary
trimming.
English embroidery is very much In
favor. The lingerie blouse, sometimes
handkerchief linen and sometimes fine
voile, is decorated with small embroid-
cred eyeiets. Then, on the other hand,
there is blouse of plain red or henna
crepe de chine which has for Its only
trimming long and full hounce in the
front. This ripples gracefully in the
opening Of the coat and takes the place
Of vest. Again blouse of organdle
is used, with huge collar for the out
side of the coat. The latter Is black
serge. A straight blouse of white pique
or pink has sleeves which show below
the cuffs of the tailored suit. The cuffs
are lined with clear color. 1t is
noticed that the blouses of all kinds
of crepe are as elaborately trimmed as
the frocks and suits.
A blouse of white crepe de chine has
little bands Of red on the collars and
cuffs and small silk tassels. red
blouse tones agreeably with a cos
tune suit of beige. The pleasant in
iuence is noted in the fastening of the
collars and cuffs In some of the crepe
de chine novelties.
A white blouse, embroidered In red
on the sides of the sleeves and In
the front, reminds one exactly Of the
smocks worn by the Rumanian peas
ants.
Vernon Parish Democrat., 1922-05-11
Skins Tip Of the Ear.

Paris fashions take little note of the
weather. In spite of warm spring days.
some of the new blouses have high
necks and long sleeves with little
edgings of ostrich to simulate fur. One
especially chic dark blue taffeta blouse
with jeweled girdle and deep en-
broidered hem coming well below the
hips, has a neckline that skins the
tip of the ear. The neckline is height
ened even more by ostrich trimming.
and the result is smartness itself. on
cool day.

NEW NECKLINE IN FRoCKS
Evening Dress Model Has Bodice Cut
Straight Across Back Below
Shoulder Blades.

An evening dress model has the
bodice cut straight across the back
just below the shoulder blades. To the
center is fastened jeweled chain,
which straps the shoulders and extends
eight inches below the waistline in
front, where 1t terminates in a large
plaque or pendant Of f1ligree gold or
enamel and cut stones. A variation of
the same idea for black frock has the
necklace made Of a strand of black
velvet ribbon embroidered in. diamonds
and jet with paste and Jet pendant
in front. This gives an entirely new
neckline and is very becoming where
sleeves are not worn.
