DESIGN SHOWS IDEAL BARN Admirably Laid Out for Its Purpose, and Attractive in Appearance— Ample Mow Room Provided for Hay and Other Storage, With Large Grain Bins. By WILLIAM A. RADFORD. Mr. William A Radford win answer questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects pertaining to the subject of building work on the farm, for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide experience as Editor. Author and Manufacturer, he is. without doubt, the highest authority on nil these suhjects. Address all Inquiries to William A. Rad ford, No. 1R!7 Prairie avenue, Chicago. 111., and only Inclose two-cent stamp for reply. ' There are several important condi tions which every farmer should ob serve in planning the arrangement of his buildings. By a careful consid eration of these conditions it is often possible to save a surprising amount I of time and effort in the daily routine of farm work. The location of the barns with respect to the house is one of the first things to consider. The farmer’s family always desires ' to have the house close to the high way. The passing vehicles break up the monotony surrounding their la bors. But with the advent of the au ■ tijmobile and its trail of dust, farm homes must now be moved hack from f done when sanitation, warmth and con venience must be sacrificed. Water will flow through pipes, and it is easy to force it through. It is not easy to take care of a barnyard located down in a hollow or on the north side of a hill or way out in a field where it is Inconvenient to get to it. Convenience is not the only thing to be considered in the planning and ar ranging of buildings. They must be planned for beauty and designed and constructed so that the owner will de sire—because of the pride he takes in them—to keep them and their sur roundings neat and clean. The design illustrated is a combined cow. horse, calf and storage barn. It is laid out in the form of a cross, this design having several distinct advan tages. In the first place, it is a convenience to the farmer to have much of his work consolidated within the walls of a single building. However, the dairy regulations of several states do not permit milch cows to be stabled in the same rooms with horses or young stock where the litter is not removed every day. Avoiding this difficulty we corrrc to this cross-shaped floor plan; for it gives us truly a three-in-oue stable arrangement. The horses and young stock are entirely shut away from the dairy stable. But aside front all other considera tions. the strongest recommendation that tliis design has is its good looks. Viewed from any angle, it is a dis tinctive-looking building. Fanners are coming to appreciate this matter of good looks. They know that a barn can be designed to look right and yet not take a single board foot more of lumber or an extra sack of cement to build it. In construction this building follows the jKiputar plank frame style: which make* use of nothing heavier than two inch stuff—stock size material regular ly carried by and easily obtainable at any lumber yard. Where strength is t daisy tmn Ground Floor Plan of Big General Barn. Main Dairy Stable Section is S6 by 98 Feet. The Wings Each Measure 30 by 36 Feet. Horse Stable to the Left; Calves and Young Stock to the Right Every Part of This Stable Well Lighted and Ventilated. the highway, especially when they must be placed on the leeward side of the road during the dusty months of the year. This distance varies from 200 feet to a quarter of a mile, depending upon the topography and the amount the highway is used. There are just as many troublesome elements entering when arranging the outbuildings with respect to each as there are to locating them with respect to the house. It is not desirable to drive the stock from the barns to the highway past the house, neither is it conducive to cleanliness to haul hay and straw over such a route. This necessitates a front and back drive, one past the house, the other directly to the barn. Animals enjoy fresh air and sun shine, yet they must be protected from the storms. All barns and sheds should be on the north and west of the yards and all yards should be open to the south. Many farmers are inclined to locate and arrange their buildings with re spect tc the well. This should not be needed, as in the trusses, several planks are spiked together, and con nections are securely bolted with one luilf-inch carriage bolts. The gambrel roof proportions chosen give a graceful outline to the barn, ; at the same time providing a huge 1 mow for the hay and other storage. i The capacity of the big mow is 110 tons. Besides this, 40 tons of hay can be stored in each wing over the horses and loose stock. There is a covered passageway across the center, by which every part of the mow can be reached. I even when the main section is filled j up to the peak. Two 100-bushel grain 1 b.ns are provided. These have hopper i bottom, delivering grain to the feed ing alleys close by the doors into horse barn and calf barn. Hay can be put in at each of the four ends. The several hay chutes are conveniently located. This haymow is easily locked up for the night. In spite of its size. There is one way up, and that is through one of the silo feed rooms, which has two doors easily locked. I WILL ARM VESSELS _ WILSON ORDERS GUNS PLACED UPON AMERICAN BOATS. CONGRESS TO MEET APRIL IS President Summons National Body for Extraordinary Session—Issue I | Rests With Germany. Washington.—President Wilson has issued an order lhat American mer- j | chant ships are to lie armed at once 1 against Germany's ruthless submarine warfare, and at the same time issued a proclamation calling an extra ses sion of congress to meet April Id. The president's decision came imme diately following the action of the 1 senate in revising its rules to permit prompt action on important questions and the submission of formal opin ions by Se-Tetary Lansing and Attor ney General Gregory that he has the power to arm merchantmen without action by congress. IVtails of the government's armed neutrality plans for defending the merchant marine were withheld to avoid endangering Americans and their ships by permitting the informa tion to reach Germany. The only statement at the White House and the Navy department was that the president was determined to protect American rights. The decisions, com ing at tlie end of a period of tense waiting, was generally hailed as the unavoidable next step in the policy adopted by the president, when he broke off diplomatic relations with Germany and gave warning that the I'nited States could not tolerate at tacks on American ships and citizens in violation of international law. Preparations Made. Fraught with the grave responsi bility of war with Germany, the ac tion was taken by President Wilson only after he was convinced that Germany actually was proceeding with its campaign of ruthlessness and had made efforts to plot with Mex ico and Japan against the territorial integrity of the Fnited States. Long before the-order was given front the White House, all necessary prepara tions for the arming of merchantmen had been eompleted at the N'avy de partment. The president's action sent a thrill through the senate, meeting in special session and Through the government departments, still hoping that war with Germany will he avoided. Officials and senators declared that the issue rests entirely with Germany. Requests Papers Omit News. Lacking legal authority to establish general censorship, the administration has appealed to the patriotism of the country's newspapers and cable com panies to suppress information about 'he movements of American merchant craft, now to he armed against Ger man submarines. “Tiie b.*st news that renders can have." said Secretary Daniels in a formal statement, “is that the govern ment will protect the rights of Amer icans to the freedom of the seas. “The publication of details can serve no good purpose and might jeopardize human life." Mr. Daniels has determined not to reveal any of the department's plans for earrying out the policy ordered by President Wilson. He previously ha* stated, however, that the navy is prepared with gun-, ammunition and gun crews to carry out the instruc tions. Hundreds Perish in Sea Disaster. London. — The British transport Mendi. carving South African native laborers, was sunk after a collision, on February 21. and fi25 persons lost their lives. The official announce ment says: “Premier Botha stated to the South African parliament that the transport Mendi. carrying the last batch of t South African native laborers’ contin gent. the rest of whom were landed safely in France, collided with an other vessel en route front England to Havre anti sank in twenty-five minutes. The collision occurred off the Isle of Wight. February 21. The tscort's searchlight could not pene trate the fog. but the survivors were resened by passing vessels. Twelve European officers and 191 natives were saved. Ten Europeans and Oil natives were lost." Says Zimmermann Made Mistake. Xew York.—Pr.

May Quit Making Beer. Copenhagen.—It is said that the suspension of all beer brewing in northern Germany is imminent. This action is due to the desire to save ! maize for bread and matt. No Funds for the Inquiry. Washington.—Lock of funds will prevent the federal trade commission from undertaking the food cost inves tigation ordered by President Wilson. Failure of congress to give the com mission $50,000 asked as a deficiency appropriation is the cause. Dry Legislation at An End. St. Paul.—The Minnesota honse in definitely postponed action on the An derson statutory prohibition law. Tha vote killed any chance for further leg islation at this session. Catarrh for Years Three I No Relief k Bottles J PERUNA ? Made Me Well. Mr. Eli Lefevre. Jr., 8?4 Brush St.. Detroit, Mich., writes: "I had been troubled with catarrh for a num ber of years, and had been taking medicine for it, but they did me no good. In reading one of Dr Hart man's books entitled 'Winter Catarrh.’ I discovered that Peruna was good for catarrh. After I had taken only three bottles of Peruna I was cured of the catarrh. I now advise every body troubled with catarrh to take Dr. Hartman's Peruna, as it is a sure cure for catarrh. ‘•Friends to whom I recommend Pe runa tell me that it is also good for headache, dizziness, and pain in the stomach."

An eminent medical authority writes that most of our city folks die of a thick ening of the arteries or of kidney dis ease. The kidneys become clogged and do not filter the poisons from the blood, and one trouble follows another, high blood pressure damages the heart, arteries and kidneys. Usually its danger signals are backache, pain here or there, swollen feet or ankles, rheumatic twinges or spots appearing before the eyes. “The veiy best remedy is this: Eat meat but once a day, or not at all. Plenty of outdoor exercise, and drink pure water frequently. Before meals take a little An uric, the great uric acid neu tralizer that is easily obtained at the drug store.
