bility OF building substantially and
well when building dairy barn. Cows
quartered In modern, sanitary barn
are really "contented'-theyg give more
milk. A well-planned barn adds more
value than cost to the market price Of
a farm.
The plan shown is typical and could
serve well in the majority Of instances
There might be minor changes neces-
sary, due purely to local conditions,
such as the placing Of the stalls, the
feed room or the silos. Whatever
change you feel should be made should
be determined before you start build
ing. Here, as In the case of the justly
famous stitch, change In time may
save nine later; dollars worth Of
trouble cheerfully expended at the
start to save nine hundreds worth Of
trouble at the end. AS a general rule
any workman will put up a better
building If he knows his ground be-
forehand and is able to go ahead with
out, the necessity of constant changes
and the attendant pickering and delay,
both in time and delivery of material.
The site is equally important with
the plan. Naturally good drainage Is
advisable, Of course. If the land Is wet
and soggy, due to springs, or seepage
water from any reason, drain tile will
give good sub-surface drainage. If the
site is such as to make it impractical
to avoid usual drainage difficulties, the
yard should be graded and provided
with surface drainage, or even con-
creted. 1t is question with many
farmers whether this expense is justi-
fed, but at the same time the other
concreting, such as concrete ap-
proaches at the doors, watering
troughs, etc, may be done. A concrete

"BUNGAL0W" IS EAST INDIAN

PRODUCTION Of the word bungalow
into English, though like Its half
brothers. this word has been slightly
maltreated In its adaptation. In Ei

"Under the rule of the Bengalis q
party of Frank merchants, inhabitants

some ground on the banks Of an estu.
ary. Under the pretext that build

finds in Streynsham's Masters Diarys

Strange Ambitions.

Strange are the ambitions that beset
human life. The circus that came to
Madison Square garden the other day
and by this act officially brought
spring to Manhattan-revealed three,
two that have been fulfilled and one
that still remains to be attained.
One was the "homeliest woman In
the world" She arrived from Europe
recently quite proud Of the fact that
that appellation was applied to her.
1t is her living; 1t has brought her
from obscurity to fame. And anyway,
her four children, who are not with
her, are beautiful.
On the same ship was an extremely
hairy individual from Australia. He
longed to become known as the "origi-
nal Tarzan." He now has a contract
that so proclaims, and his name on the
program. He, too. Is proud. He's at
the summit Of his hopes.
The one all forlorn. He is Zip, who
ever since Barnum introduced him to
fame has been known as the "what II
It." He has saved his money and has
become wealthy. But despite all this,
his ambition is to some day play "Ham-
let."-New York Letter in the Detroit
News.

MEMORIES IN OLD BOOKS
One Of the Delights Of Age Is Their
Bringing Back the Pictures OF
Youthful Days.

A book has always been for me a
friend, q counselor, an eloquent and
calm consolation, whose resources I
did not wish to dissipate quickly and
which I reserved for important occa-
sions. Who does not remember with
delight the first books which he de-
voured and appreciated? When the
cover of some old worm-eaten book
turns up on the shelves of some for
gotten room, does 1t not bring back the
happy pictures of our youthful daysf
Have you not suddenly seen appear
before you the large window bathed
in the crimson light Of evening where
you read it for the first time, the old
elm, the hedge that sheltered you and
whose side served you at once for
couch and table, while the thrush sang
her farewell song to her companions
and the cow-herd's pipe was lost in
Ie dstance?. 1t is over; the
lambs are bleatlng, the sheep in the
fold, and the cricket takes possession
Of the stubble in the plains. The out
lines of the trees are lost in the dim
ness Of night as the characters were
effaced on the pages Of the book. !.

with steel stanchions, drinking cups

purpose of gathering information
and conducting Investigations that
will aid in the elimination of pink
boil weevil speedily in the event Of
its appearance in the Imperial Val
lev, several representatives of the
bureau of plant industry of the de
partment of agriculture are here
from Washington headquarters to
conduct a comprehensive campaign
upon which they will be engaged
for several weeks.
They are agreed that the climatic
conditions in the valley are against
the propagation of boil weevil, but
adso agreed that the possibility of
its appearance and activity is pres
ent. In this attitude they have to
sustain their opinion the experience
had in FL Paso district, where boil
weevil appeared. 1t was promptly
eradicated at the time by reason of
the preparedness the government
had exercised. The climatic condi-
tions in the FL Paso region and in
the Imperial Valley are very simi-
lar.
