AKB a building
that will hold ,69
cows, cay 28 feet
-wldo by 108 feet
long and 14- fcot
high. Tho first
story should bo 10
feot for tho cows,
with a 4 foot loft
for meal and cut Ut
ter. A building or
this width and size
tan bo built of light tim
bers, nay 2 by 4 inch studding,
balloon frame. As this roof Is narrow
tho rafters can bo light and need no
purlins. Board It with noat siding and
Uno It or plaster InBhlc. With woll ar
ranged windows and air ducts you have
light nnd ventilation ns thoroughly un
der your control as In tho llvlnB fotfm
of your" house. Such a building as this
can be jrnt up for one-third tho cost of a
G5 by 60-foot bank barn and bo Infinite
ly better as a place to house cows. Two
objections will probably bo urged
against this slnglo purpose bnrn first,
that you will need a Inrgo barn nnyhow,
for the Btorago of hay nnd grain, nnd,
secondly, that it will bo Inconvenient to
get tho coarso provender from tho stor
age barn to tho cow barn. In answer to
tho first objection I can say If now
buildings nro to bo nut tin. build them
long and narrow, as In the caso of tho
cow barn before described, for tho same
savins In tho coat of tho smaller sized
lumber can bo made. Lumber of what
wo call ynrd sizes costs ?12 toJIG per
thousand. Sawed bIzcb cost ?18 to 520,
nnd qulto largo Btlcks, which have to bo
of good pine, may cost $30, Such a
building as nbovo Indicated can bo built
of ynrd sizes and would not cost ovor
half ns much as a square bnnlc barn of
thcChcster county pattern of tho same
capacity. If your old barn Is good, tako
our your basement stnblo3, drop your
bays and so Increase tho storage ca
pacity. As to tho second objection, every
farmer with land enough to put on 40
or 50 cows to 100 acres will surely have
a. silo and cut his fodder nnd his buy,
nnd with well nrranged hanging tracks
can tnl:o his cut feed across his barn
yard Into bis cow barn with moro satis
faction than In tho old way of taking
forkfuls of hny nnd Bhcavcs of fodder
through tho dark and narrow entries.
An extension of this Idea of slnglo
pUrposo barns would suggest n horso
barn also, which In many ways would
bo prefcrablo to stabling them In tho
basements of bank baniB. Wo used to
imaglno that great straw sheds wero
needed for tho storage of litter, tho shel
ter of tho stock and tho protection of
tho mnnure. Now wo haul our manuro
directly to tho flolds, our cows aro not
let out whon thoy roqnlro Bholtor, and
tho straw should bo cut Into Inch
lengths at the tlmo of thrashing, In
which case It can bo housed In one-third
tho usual space, nnd actually costs less
than to storo It away uncut. Phila

Western Pnature.
One of tho foromo3t considerations
with tho dairyman is tho matter of
cheap aud effective food. In tho West
here, oven at this comparatively early
day, tho cry is for moro pasture room.
As a matter of fact tho absenco of good
pasturage for tho cows at about this
time of tho year, as n rulo, Is com
plained about a good deal moro in this
section than it Is further East whore
they havo learned to depend upon
something better. It is now conceded
by dairymen who havo studied all sides
of tho question that tho corn field will
furnish moro of tho right kind of food
for the dairy cow than will tho pabturo.
That Is to say, turn tho pastures into
corn fields and clover nnd nlfalfa
meadows, thon preparo tho food for tho
cowb for every month tho year around,
nnd It will bo discovered that milk and
butter aro produced at a lessened coat
This manner of feeding nccessajlly
brings Into requisition tho silo. Hy
this means several advantages nro had.
It Is possible to feed through a long
drouth Just tho same as though tho
pastures woro green and without nny
increase of cost. It is also posslblo to
feed through tho long winter on a milk
producing ration that is grown on tho
farm and is as cheap as grass itsolf.
With tho right kind of ration for win
ter feeding it encourages moro of win
ter dairying, and consequently greater
profits to tho butter maker. This
branch of conducting tho dairy is but
one branch of what Is known as in
tensive farming. It Is found to bo in
keeping with the idea of cutting down
tho acreago of tho farm, and of putting
moro of both brain nnd brawn tabor
into thoso acres. This system Is work
ing well In practice further east, and
It la but a matter of tlmo when it will
be found moro thoroughly engrafted
into our Western ways. Nebraska

Amateur Tests. Wo onco knew of a
man that bought a good many cows
every year for his city dairy. It was
before tho advent of tho Babcock test,
and for that reason ho was very ox
cusablo in using a moro primitive
mode. Ho would get the milk of the
cow offered for sale and set It over
night in a goblet. If it showed a good
thick cream in the morning, ho bought
the cow, provided her milklug capacity
was fairly good. This might do for
cows to bo used In a milk dairy, but it
would be very unreliable for cowb to
bo used in a creamery or for tho pri
vate dairy. This, for two reasons:
First, some cream Is much moro com
pact than others, and a cow whose
cream was five-sixteenths of an inch
Jfilf
thick might really contain less butter -
fat than ono four-sixteenths Inches
thick. Second, tho cream In oomo milk
rises very much slowor than In othor

Years ago, says B. H. Davis In Tho
Poultry Monthly, tho poultry business
wns not as lucrattvo as It is at tho
present time. During tho wlntor
months, although our poultry was well
sheltered nnd fed and great caro usod
10 iceop tno buildings clean, giving
plenty of fresh wnter, etc., wo found nt
tho opening of tho sprlrfg wo had no
remuneration for our labor, as cost of
grain, scraps, potatoes, etc., far ex
ceeded tho lncomo of egg3.
Wo havo now a better way of feeding,
and most excellent results havo fol
lowed. Wo feed cut green bones in
fair quantity every other dny, and somo
of tho tlmo every day. They aro Inex
pensive, nnd with a good bono cutter
thoy mako when cut fresh every day
so nice a food that wo can only liken
it to a nlco raro stoak to a hungry man.
Tho fowl3 lovo It. Thoy thrive, and tho
chickens grow rapidly when fed on It.
Tho mineral part of this food gives
chlekons mntcrial for their growing
bones, nnd for tho laying hens tho
shells, whllo tho meat, grlstlo and
Juices In those green bones glvo ma
terial for the flesh to tho growing
chickens and interior ot tho egg in
abundance.
So now our fowls, instead of being
ovorfat in wlntor, nro glvlnff us eegs.
Instead of being a sorry looking, de
jected, unprofitable lot during tho molt
ing period, thoy aro wide awako and
strong, and many of them go so far
as to glvo us eggs regularly nt this
time. Tho grain bill being largely re
duced, tho egg yield boing Increased
and no loss from sickness, all aid in
making our winter and spring record
very encouraging, and no ono could in
duce us to neglect tho feeding of grcon
bono freshly cut at all seasons of tho
year.
Hllkm.
Manly Mile's has this to say of tho
abovo named brood: This breed, some
times called Silky, or Negro fowlB, havo
a very peculiar appearance; their
plumage being so unlike that ot other
fowls, as to bo scarcely recognized as
feathers; whllo tho skin of tho fowl Is
a deep violet color, almost black, tho
surface bones being of tho samo hue
also, which gives it a rather unin
viting look when prepared for tho
table. Tho flesh, however, is very deli
cate and white, and superior to that of
many breeds. Tho plumage has a soft,
flossy nppoaranco, tho filaments being
separate or single, and has been repre
sented by ancient naturalists as re
sembling wool. In describing this n-a-
cullar breed of fowls some say, "Thoy
wero covered with wool Instead of
feathers"; others say, they were cov
ered with "hair llko cats."
Theso fowls aro supposed to be na
tives ot India, though some say they
originated In China. They aro bred In
England to some extent. Tho cocks
weigh about four pounds, and tho hen
about two and one-halt pounds.
Scavenger Sheep. The too common
opinion In regard to sheep is that they
are but scavengers, and fitted only to
consume tho weeds and other wastes
on tho farm; but out of nothing comes
nothing. If there is no proper food,
caro and shelter provided, we must
expect our sheep to pine away and per

cxtromely bad.
"Woll, wo started on tho boat and In
duo tlmo went to our stateroom. My
sleep was a bit troubled and toward
morning I hnd n drer.m which was so
llfellko that It was really a vision. My
dream was that I had brought my

molted apart, as If they had been

BOOKS READ BY NEW WOMAN.
Cousonsiif or Ituports S!ioivg n CIiihiko
In Taste.
Does tho "now woman" read a differ
ent class of books from her predecessor,
tho old-fashioned woman?
This Is the query I gavo somo librari
ans to answer, and I learned in return
that tho new woman does, "I don't
moan to say," ono replied, "that every
woman who comes in to get a book
eschews tho romantic nnd new, but tho
surprising fact is that so many actually
ask for tho deepest works on political
subjects. My assistant and myself
wero at first amused, now wo regard It
as a significant movement.
Tho chango began, I gathered from a
consensus of roports, about three years
ago ; Blnco then It has rapidly broadened
and deepened. All works on sociology
nnd political science nro called for as
eagerly by ono sex as tho other. Tho
favorites seem to bo Prof. Ely's series
on political science All governmental
questions nro carefully studied, and
anything that relates to tho tariff Is
popular.
"To my mind," said an aged keeper
of books, "tho American woman, as sho
is represented in New York by her
reading, Is developing In a political way
marvelously; not that it will havo any
effect In helping them to obtain suf
frage, but such powers will mako them
powers bohlnd tho throne."
Tako tho French woman of Do Staol's
era and the English woman of to-day
they aro amazingly learned in local
political meanings. I do not consider
that this reading Is an evldenco of tho
"new woman," but rather that the
Americans do not wish to be behind
women of other countries in tholr abili
ty to compete intellectually with raon
on national subjects.
"Yes," said another librarian, "thoro
is no denying that women nro calling
for heavy political works more every
day, but," ho thoughtfully added, "it
has long been a question with mo as to
their reading them; I think, possibly,
tho husbands had sent for them.

F. C, Wheeler of (ho Great Western
Tin Plate Company la quoted a3 saying
that many tin pinto mills will bo com
pelled to shut down within three
months or so. He says: "Tho advance
in raw materials, as, for Instance, steel,
which has gone up $10 a ton, nnd tho
lack of an advance In tho finished prod
uct tolls tho reason why. A number of
millg havo contracts for steel made be
fore tho advance began. When these
contracts oxplro thoro will be nothing
for them to do but closo."
In this connection an organ of Mc
Klnlcylsm sayn: "There Is a strong or
ganization among tin plato men, with
headquarters in Pittsburg, now en
gaged In tho distribution of literature
pointing out tho effect of tho Wilson
tariff upon tho Industry. A committee
has been appointed to tako charge of
the deslrod congregational legislation."
it is ns usual with tho beneficiaries of
protection. As Bopn as the wind blows
a little chilly they run to congress for
more protection.
Raw materials, "as, for Instance,
steel," havo gono up. Whnt else, "for
instance?" Not tho metal tin, for that
is less than 14 cents a pound (foreign
value, for all wo uso is Imported).
against 15.7 cents average In 1894 and 20
cents In each of the four preceding
years. Tho metal tin la about tho only
raw material except steel. Tho only ad
vance of any importance, therefore, Is
in stool, nnd that is only cent per
pound, or less if tho ton referred to by
Mr. Wheeler is tho long ton. But the
duty under tho present law on tin plate
Is 1.2 cents per pound, or considerably
moro than twlco tho advanco in tho
price of atcel. To be exact, tho advance
in steel is $10 per ton, whllo tho duty
on tin plato is ?2i per ton, or $4 moro
than It was under tho republican pro
tective tariff of 1883 . Yet a strong or
ganization of tin plate men la distribut
ing literature demanding moro tariff.
Thoy do not ask for less tariff on the
steel, which Is tholr most costly ma
terial, for they appreciate the force of
Mr. Blalno's remark that tho tariff ben
eficiaries must all hang together or
thoy will all hang separately.
But thero aro foctB which indicate
that more tariff will not make tho tin
plate men entirely happy. A statement
has been going tho round3 of tho press
of lato that cans mado of paper pulp
were taking tho place of tin cans in
somo branches of tho canning industry.
And now tho American Agriculturist
announces that glass packages aro to
take the place of tin cans. It states that
a now vacuum process of putting up
frult3 in glass has already been intro
duced from Europo among packers on
tho Pacific slope. This process is an Im
provement in more than ono respect,
but especially in that It Insures tho
who'esomencsa of the fruit or tho ar
tlclo canned without increasing . tho
cost.
With the introduction of these sub
stitutes for tin in tho packing indus-
r tries thero will be a vast falling off in
tho demand for tin plate, and it will not
bo possible to forco up tho price of that
article by means of a tariff tax. What
tho caso really seems to require is an
act of congress prohibiting the uso of
glass Jars, pulp packages or any other
substituto for tin in the canning Indus
tries. Such a law would not give un
bounded satisfaction to tho makers ot
glass and tho producers of paper pulp,
but it would be qulto as reasonablo and
just ns a law raising the price of tin
plate for the exclusive benefit of the
producers of that article. Tho strong or
ganization of tho tin plato men. with
headquarters in Pittsburg, should con
sider these things and change the plan
ot campaign accordingly. Chicago

Importance of tho Klchternth District.
The democratic executive committee
ot this state is right in holding tho elec
tion of a membor of congress in the
eighteenth district a matter of vital im
portance to tho party not only in tho
state but in tho nation. Tho result ot
that contest will afford a new indication
of whether or not tho voters of this na
tion are Inclined to reverse the verdict
against tho domocracy they rendered In
tho general elections of 1894. Though
nn unwlBo usurpation of tho authority
of tho national convention resulted in
tho incorporation In the eighteenth dis
trict of an undemocratic currency plank
the Importance of victory is not thereby
lessened. Mr. Lane, tho democratic
nominee, will not solvo tho currency
problem when he reaches Washington,
Upon that issue he will stand with an
insignificant minority of his own party.
The real Issue in the eighteenth dis
trict Is tho renewal of confidence In tho
democratic party. Mr. Lane's triumph
ant election will mean that in a typical
congressional district the people have
discovered how sorely they were hum
bugged by tho lying clamor of republi
cans last fall. It will demonstrate that
the hard times due to republican profli
gacy and foolish monetary legislation
aro no longer wrongfully ascribed to the
democracy. It will show that credit for
tho renowal of prosperity is now given
where it is due. to the effects of demo
cratic legislation on tho tariff.
The state committee will find it worth
whllo to fight hard for democratic vic
tory in the eighteenth that all these
things may be made clear to democrats
throughout the state and the union.
The confidence already awakened by
tho victories In Indianapolis and Chat
tanooga will be vastly enhanced by the
election of a dempcrat to congress from
tho Illinois district which tho republi
cans so swoeplngly carried last year.
It Is unfortunato thnt tho sudden and
deplorable doatli of Cyrus L. Cook, the
republican nOmlnco, nnd tho resulting
disorganization of his party will glvo
tho republican managers a chance to
minimize tho significance of the demo
cratic victory which was, Ih any event,
Inevitable. Chicago Chronicle.
llnrrlfton nml MrKlnlcy Tnxrn
Certain republican Journnls aro now
endeavoring to make the public bollovo
that Mr, Harrison took no nart In rimft.
Ing tho McKlnloy bill and Is in no way
responsible for tho measure.
It is not the duty of the executive,
though it may bo well for a party lead
er, to Interfere with tho action of a com
mittee of the houso, but is emphatically
his duty fully to examine a measuro
perfected by congress and submitted, for
his signature. If ho signs a bill he be
comes oven moro responsible for it than
congress Itsolf, for, possessing tho veto
powet;, he has tremendous Influence
upon legislative action.
It Is now said In behalf of Mr. Harri
son that ho know nothing of the McKin
loy bill, was Indifferent to It nt all
stages of its progress through legisla
tion and signed It without examination
of ita features, and, therefore, cannot
be said to bo responsible for it in any
manner.
General Harrison mny woll ask to be
saved from hla friends. Tho position
thoy assume for him with reference to
tho McKlnley bill is ono which places
him in the attitude of a slipshod execu
tive, whoso signature was matter of
courso and whoso examination was not
oven perfunctory.
But Harrison's apologists forgot that
after the people had repudiated McKin
leyism In tho memorable elections of
1890, Harrison, in his annual message
to congress, defended McKlnlcylsm nnd
advised congress that the people wore
ignorant of tho blessing the repudiated
measure would bo to them and that no
attention should bo paid to their action.
He committed himself completely, of
fensively and unwisely to the McKlnley
plan of high taxation at the custom
houses. Now York World.
OlTtJ Up.
A few day3 beforo tho lato municipal
election in Indianapolis the Journal ot
that city, owned by tho Now family and
the orgnn of Benjamin Harrison, said:
"All ovor the country a Taggart vic
tory would be claimed as a democratic
victory and declaration that the voters
of Indiana already repent that they
rolled up tho largest majority in tho
history of tho state for the republican
tlckot in November, 1894." Taggart was
elected. Tho result should be accepted
as tho Harrlsonian newspaper nnd po
liticians of Indianapolis interpreted It
in advance.
Showing SIrms of Alarm.
When tho returns aro all In from tho
elections tho republicans will probably
realize that victory In 1S9C will not be
quite so easy to achieve as many re
publican statesmen and newspapers
havo boon predicting. The notion that
thoy can elect anybody, on any sort of
a platform, next year, which has been
prevalent in somo republican circles is
absurd nnd mischievous, and tho
quicker tho party gets rid of It and
takes an intelligent view of the situa
tion the better it will feel after the elec
tion thirteen months hence. Ex.
Wanted No Military 1'aracle.
Now York Journal: President Cleve
land's declination of the offer of a mil
itary guard on his projected trip to the
Atlanta exposition is sensible and
praiseworthy. The exposition is dis
tinctly n nonmilltary enterprise; It is
a celebration of tho triumphs of peace,
and tho martial features which appear
in its display aro mere Incidents of its
spectacular arrangement. The idea that
tho nation's chief executive should bo
attended on his travels by an nrmed
bodyguard is preposterous, and Mr.
Cleveland is entitled to tho thanks of
tho public for repudiating it.
Ite Will Demand.
The McKinleyites have finally statea
the case as thoy understand It. They
will demand in tho republican platform
of 1890 a goneral rovislon of the tnriff
but no Increase, except that the duty
on wool shall bo restored. They will go
Into tho campaign on a platform of
higher prices for clothing, carpets and
hats and caps. A platform and candi
date running on the issue of higher
prices tor necessaries of life will not
get far in tho campaign.
Kxportt.
Experts of manufactures this yeai
will be J17.000.000 moro than ever be

favor of Araorican Industry under the

satisfactory, and is not encouraging to
a revival of McKlnleyism.
