FOUR BIG BUILDING FACTORS
Important That VentiIating System
Carries Away EXCESS Moisture
Sunlight Is Good.

There are four factors to be con-
sidered in the erection of new farm
buildings or the repair of old ones.
1. A good ventilating system is most
essential The fresh air intake, to-
cether with a foul air outlet, does
away with all excess moisture and
keeps the interior of the building in
the best condition. Have a trap door
or window near the floor on the wind
ward side in order to maintain air cur
rent on the floor.
9. Sunlight is one of the greatest
natural disinfectants. All buildings
new or old, should have plenty of win
dow space, and should be so arranged
as to admit the sunlight.
8. Cleanliness is another point upon
which to place much stress. Windows
and walls should be so constructed as
to permit frequent and easy cleaning
4. Convenience is another Important
factor. Feed bins, silos. harness rooms.
separator rooms and all other rooms
and. compartments should be planned
to save steps, thus accomplishing
maximum amount of work with a min
iimum amount Of labor

FATHER OF BLOCK SIGNALING
Name Of William Robinson Written
Large in the History Of Rail-
way Transportation.

An automatic electric system of
railroad signaling was put into sue
cessful operation for the first time so
years ago. 1t was the invention of
William Robinson, and the trial to
which he submitted his signaling ap-
pliances was made early in September.
1872. at rhe town of Kinzua, on the
old Philadelphia & Erie railway in
northern Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Robinson is very generally re-
ferred to as ''the father of automatic
block signaling" His invention is
recognized as the forerunner and at
the same time the basis of 'practical-
ly every automatic electric block sig
nal system in use on railroads today"
This tribute to his work appeared
in recent report of the interstate
commerce commission: perhaps no
single invention in the history of the
development of railway transportation
has contributed more toward safety
and dispatch in that field than the
closed track circuit"

OLD RAGS USED IN ROOFING
Discarded Odds and Ends Play an Inn
portant Part in the Nations
Housing Supply

Old rags play AN important part in
the nations housing supply, as most
of the roofs on modern homes are
partly made from them. In the form
of roll roofings and prepared shingles,
old rags cover more American homes
than all other types combined. In the
preparation of asphalt materials for
roofing purposes thousands of tons of
rags are made use of every year,
Thrift states.
After the housewife has thrown
away her accumulation of odds and
ends or sold them to the leathern-
lunged junk man who roams the
streets of all American cities and
towns with his jingling bell, they pass
through many hands before eventually
reaching the factory, where they are
sorted and reduced to pulp. This is
made into raw, coarse fabric of long
fiber and great durability. Into every
pore and opening of this cloth hot as
phalt is pressed and the material is
then covered on both sides with as
phalt and crushed slate. The product
of the process is ii very durable, wa
terproOf solid material which is used
to cover most American houses.

CHURCHILL SAYS NEW PREMIER

ENORMOUS RESPONSIBILITY IN.
CURED BY MAN WHO
GRAsPED OFFICE.

London.-An election manifesto
written from sick bed by Winston
Spencer Churchill, secretary for the
colonies in the Lloyd George cabinet,
points out that the present is the first
tlme since 1885 that purely conserv-
alive government is in power. Since
that time, Mr.. Churchill says, there has

But, whereas the conservative gov.
eminent in 1885 was represented by

unues, "the present government is
Short of many of the ablest and most
experienced conservative leaders.
Enormous responsibility therefore
has been incurred by the men who
grasped office under these conditions
and now are marching light heartedly
to encounter the vast electorate OF
twenty Millions
Mr.. Churchill declares it absurd to
pretend that Andrew Bonar Law has
the vitality, resourcefulness or con.
structiye capacity superior to thai
which David Lloyd George possessed
or that Lord Salisbury has the poise
and sagacity which Lord Balfour
lacked

manifesto, Il marvel at the temerity

After subjecting the new admins
tration to sharp criticism, Mr. Church.
ill declares his attitude toward the
government will be one of freedom and
reserve, which does not necessarily
mean that he will confront the gov
ernment with factious opposition.
Remarking that the new premier has
declared a policy virtually identica
with the policy the coalition govern
ment was pursuing at home an6
abroad, Mr. Churchill asserts that il

SOCIETY MEN WEAR CoRsETs
Fad Spreading in England, and Said
to Be by No Means Confined
to Fops.

The corset-wearing habit among
men is coming into vogue again, says
an investigator in England.
"a leading London cOrsetiere who
supplies most society men. puts down
a good customers bill at $3.50 per an
nun. Let no one imagine that it is
only fops who wear them. The major
ity of wearers are military men, who,
/ learn, require a greater amount of
padding than civilians. Others are or
dinary well-dressed men, given TO man
ly sports. and by no means effeminate.
"a mans figure has to be gradually
coaXed into shape, and it is put first of
all into soft silk corset with scarcely
any bones, until he attains by degrees
to the full glory of the perfect figure.
"This process usually takes three
months, and five special makes of cor
sets are employed in the development

to say the repression of the figure

prived of millions of dollars eocb veor

products as soon as harvested Prod

low prices and sometimes loss. but
this is what the producer must expect
when he sells during an over.produc.
ton period. Unless he has STORAGE
facilities in which to hold his ypge-
tables or fruit until the prices rise
he must sell or lose out entirely
The rise in prices during the storage
period is very strongly marked. For
instance, a table showing the eight
year average price for potatoes in the
United States indicates that in March
April and May they were 80 cents a
bushel more than in November and
December.
Benefits Of Cellar.
A good storage cellar also makes IT
possible to keep vegetables and fruit
longer for home consumption. Vege-
tables that must be stored in the or
binary cellar soon decay and in the
spring when the temperature rises
vegetables that have not decayed
Will sprout, which decreases their food
value and makes them unfit for mar
ket. Fruits and vegetables can be
stored in concrete storage cellars for
long period without any loss or de
probation due to decay or sprouting
1t is best to build the storage cellar
on north slope and hive the en-
trance facing north. Double doors en-
closing ii small yestibue are desirable
as they permit filling aud emptying
the cellar with the admission of
minimum of warm air.
Storage cellar walls made of dense
concrete will keep out the excess
moisture of the earth while water
held in sumps at the base of the
intake ventilators will give air enter
ing the storage cellar the proper
amount of moisture.
Reinforce the Roof
The roof must be reinforced length

five inches from center to center
should be placed crosswise. These
steel bars should be embedded in the

of the roof slab. The walls of the

sack of cement to 21a cubic feet of
clean, screened sand to cubic feet

should also be clean, hard and vary
