For all practical purposes I would ask for nothing better. The dimension of building is 28 by 52 feet with room above for 20 tons of hay and a wool room where I can store away 500 fleeces, writes Edwin E. Sedwlck in the Farmers Review. The corner posts are 12 inches at butt, 8 to 10 at top and 16 feet high. They are white oak and were obtained from my own timber. Such poles could not be bought for less than $1 each. All the woodwork, except shingles and siding, were obtained from the farm timber The Milking Shorthorn. lot and are mostly oak, elm, and bass wood. The logs were cut and hauled they will produce good beef animals and at the same time make good dairy cows. Or, they can he bred and fed for the dairy to the opposite extreme and make good beef as well. Of course such breeding will. In of the time, ruin the constitution stock, and destroy their qualities both for the beef and the dairy. The tendency of the Shorthorn to fatten too easily is one of the objections to this breed; but properly fed, as they are in England, they still retain a strong place In the dairy.

Many babies have been launched Into life with constitutions weakened by disease taken in with their mothers milk. Mothers cannot be too careful as to the food they use while nursing their babes. The experience of a Kansas City mother Is a case in point: I was a great coffee drinker from a child, and thought I could not do without It But I found at last it was doing me harm. For years I had been troubled with dizziness, spots before my eyes and pain in my heart to which was added, two years later, a chronic sour stomach. The baby was born 7 months ago, and almost from the beginning, it too, suffered from sour stomach. She was taking it frem jnet In my distress I consulted a friend of more experience and 6he told me to quit coffee, that coffee did not make good milk. I have since ascertained that it really dries up the milk. So, I quit 'coffee and tried tea and at last cocoa. But they did not agree with me. Then I turned to Postum with the happiest results. It proved to be the very thing I needed. It not only agreed perfectly with baby and myself, but it increased the flow of my milk. My husband then quit coffee and used Postum and quickly got well of the dyspepsia with which he had been troubled. I no longer suffer from the dizziness, blind spells, pain in my heart or eour stomach. Now wre all drink Postum from my husband to my seven months o!4 baby. It has proved to he the best hot drink we have ever used. We would not give up Postum for the best Name given coffee we ever drank. by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

The girders are four feet apart and floor joists two feet, which makes a firm and substantial floor. We cut logs six feet long and sawed planks two Inches thick for stall floors with a two-incdrop floor back of cows lengthwise of the barn. This makes It a very easy matter to clean out stable. We bed only the high six-fofloor and the cow lies on this, all droppings going to the lower floor behind. We used 2 by 4s for rafters, placing them two feet apart and used f pitch for roof. The shreath-in- g was picked up about the place, old boards being worked in and used to good advantage; 4 by 4s 14 feet long were used for bearing under rafters. These were set at an angle, thus making more hay room. All braces are made from 2 by 4s and 2 by 6s, odds and ends being used to advantage. The feed alley is floored with inch boards running lengthwise, as is also the loft above and floor to wool room. The front of manger next to alley Is made of elm hoards one inch thick, while the part next to cows Is made from short pieces set up and down the manger, being two feet two inches high. The feed boxes are very solid, all being qiade of two-incelm and are tight enough to hold fine ground feed.

Ensilage fed to milch cows Is one of the most economical feeds that can be adopted. A large farm Is all right, but it needs a smart farmer with plenty ol capital to make it pay. Dont get so proud of that one extra good cow that you forget to weed out the extra poor ones in the herd. If your cows lie on a cement floor without a board covering or deep bed Jing look out for udder trouble. Poultry raising can be conveniently and profitably combined with dairying, fruit growing or gardening. Pasturage will give a large amount of roughage at a low cost, but a pasture, no matter how good, will not enable a cow to do her best unless supplemented with a grain food.
