Good Plumbing in
Laundry Important

Slate laundry tubs have been the
standard in the majority of homes for
years. But more and more of late
home builders are putting in white
china or enameled tubs, which go to
make the laundry, usually place cor
daily dreaded, a cheerful corner, in
deed.
White tubs are as practical as they
are ornamental. They are not only
easier to keep clean, but they are
much easier on the garments. In q
white tub the dainty pieces Of wom-
ems wear are not likely to become
covered with rust spots. 1t is easy to
understand a woman will trust her
most precious silks to such tub.
Plumbing manufacturers are show
ing some beautiful and practical laun-
dry tubs in vitreous china and enam-
eled iron. Some of the manufacturers
have wisely adopted adjustable legs so
that washing may be done at the most
comfortable height.
These modern tubs are equipped
with sparkling nickled faucets and
soap dishes that do not rust.

Often this is due to faulty kidney &C

wear you out. Use Doan's Pills be-

Build Garage Large
Enough for Workshop

When you are planning your garage
take into consideration the fact that
some time, sooner or later, you will
want to tinker about your car, even If
it Is only to wipe the dust off.
A garage about II by Is feet is big
enough to house almost any automo-
bile not in the truck class, but this size
is not large enough for you to work
beside the machine. Plan your garage
large enough to admit workbench
Put plenty of windows in the garage
because you will need good light. If
your pocketbook can afford it, sheet
the building inside, following the
method of the City Wide Builders, who
put out garage with double walls.
These double walls not only give
the garage additional heat in the win
ter but exclude the heat in the sum-
mer when you want to use the garage
for workshop.

Holly, Mich.-Miss Eva Lake, night

main at her post and sound the alarm
IN an early morning fire which nearly
wrecked the interior Of the Wilson
building where the telephone office is
located. An electric push button in a

an electric siren, giving the village
night fire alarms. Miss Lake found
the room where this signal button is
located filled with flames, but man

Ines and the pavement to break her

But she achieved her purpose, for
the sight Of her daughter whirling

She did not, however, win Isidro.

count Of his wide experience as editor,
author and manufacturer, he is, with
out doubt. the highest authority on
the subject. Address all inquiries to

The barn, especially the dairy barn,
to a very large extent controls the in
come which must provide for a COM
Portable farm home and all those
things which go to make life salts
factory to the farm family. AS rule
it is only once in a lifetime that
barn is to be built, and when that time
comes it should be given the most
careful planning.
In every part Of this country 1t is
possible to secure the advice Of state
and county experts as well as that
of the manufacturers who have made
a study Of barn construction and equip
ment. Such expert advice Is Of the
utmost value and may often effect
large saving in money. 1t Is sure to
produce a barn which will give the
greatest possible service in increasing
the net income Of its owner.
While barn construction is rather
we'll standardized there are many va
riations which are possible to meet
the conditions which exist in any par
ticular situation. Sometimes it is nee
essary to get the largest possible ac-
commodation in the least space, be-
cause of the need of keeping down con-
struction cost for example. For ac-
tual construction required, a square
or nearly square building gives the
greatest possible floor area. Such a
barn Is shown.
The dimensions are 60 feet by So
feet, and in addition there is a silo,
sufficiently large to supply the stock
which will be housed. Up to the
height Of the window tops this barn
is of concrete, while above that line
it Is of frame construction. The silo
Is of wood with a concrete base
The inside space is divided into
three rows of stalls. There are two
rows Of stalls with a feed alley at
each side and litter alley between.
A modern little carrier track runs
through the center Of this alley as
well as through the litter alley be-
hind the horse stalls. The cow stalls
are equipped with steel stanchions, and
there Is a well-dralned gutter behind
each row Of stalls which makes it a
simple matter to keep the stalls clean
and fresh at all times.
One feed alley serves for one row
of COW stalls and the horse stalls which
run along one side Of the barn. Here
both box and single stalls are provided
as may happen to be needed. There
are wide doors at each end Of the main
litter alley 80 that it is possible to
drive through from end to end. Mar
row entrance doors are found at each
end of the alley back of Ahe horse
stalls.
Windows all around the building ad-
init the light and sunshine that is so
essential for healthy stock, and the
air Is kept fresh and pure with the
aid Of two large ventilaters in the
roof. Above the stalls is large loft
with plenty Of storage space in pro-

The capacity of this barn is greater

Venus is the unquestioned

cause he is so much farther away
that his immense size fails to

is about 500 million miles distant
and she only about 1914 million.
But she is not quite as large as

thirteen hundred earths.
You will observe that Jupiter is

Venus, November Is, is fairly in
that group.
The other two naked.eye plan
cts, Mercury and Saturn, are
practically invisible on account
of being too close in line with
the sun as seen from the earth.
The sun is passing eastward over
