PRACTICAL BARN FOR COWS
One'. With Sheep Fold for Breeding
Ewes Found Very..Comfortable
and Convenient.
I herewith present the plans of my
Cow barn, with sheep fold for breed
ing ewes, both of which I have found
very comfortable 'and convenient. 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 600
fleeces, writes Edwin E. Sedw'ick 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 pols could not be
bought for less than $1 each. All the
woodwork, except shingles and siding,
were obtained from the farm timbet
lot and are mostly oak, elm, and bass
wood. The logs were cut and hauled

SHORTHORN IS 600D MILKER
Properly Fed, as They Are in Eng.
land, They Will RetainStrong
Place Among Dairy Cows.
(By R. 'G. WEATHIERSTONE.)
While the Shorthorn is generally
regarded as ( prime beef breed, there
are among the best milkers 61 this
country 'many strains of well bred
Shorthorns. In New England there
are one or two herds tnilng back to
Arabella 'a'd the Constance and Wa
terloo families.
Many herds of Shorthorns can be
found whose cows produce from 40 to
60 pounds of milk, per day. These
cattle are smooth, well fleshed, and
fatten off into prime beef.
The admirers of Shorthorns claim
that they can be so bred and fed that
The Milking Shorthorn.
they will produce good beef Ianimals
and at the same time make good dairy
cows. Or, they can be bred and fed
for the dairy to the opposite extreme
and make good beef as well.
Of course such breeding . will, In
Ump, ruin the constitution of the
stock, and destroy their qualities both
for the beef and the dairy. The ten
dency'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.

writes Monroe Conklin, Jr., in the
Farm and Home. The board is then
driven on the tines, which are broken
off -at the face- of the board. The holes
should be a very little smaller in di

SICK SPELL
flappy Ending to Experience That
Might Have Developed
Fatal Results.
Rayne, N. C.-"I was in a very low
btate of health last spring," writes
Mrs. Z. V. Spell of this place, "and
was not able to be up and tend to my
duties. We consulted our family doo
tor, and he advised-me to try Cardul,
which I did, and soon began to feel
better. I got 'able to be up and help
to my housework.
"I continued to take your medicine,
and I am now able to do my house
work and to care for my children,
and I do not feel as though I could
ever thank you .enough for the bene
fits I have received. I shall heartily
recommend Cardul to all similarly af
flicted, for I think your medicine a
Godsend to all women."
Cardui is successful, because it con
tains ingredients that act on the weak
womanly organs. They are imported
especially from Europe, by us, an'd
are not in general use nor for' sale
'at drug stores, except in the form of
Cardul. As a result of the experience
of over 50 years, Cardui is now known
as a medicine for women, of real
merit, that can always be depended
on.

Signor Puccini, although celebrated
all over the world for his operas, is
still a young man. On the subject of
his early success the Italian composer
said recently in New York:
"I have been very lucky. Recornl
lion for artistic work comes so often
aifter one is too old to. enjoy it.
"I remember one of my country
rael, a centenarian, who, had he died
beforo seventy, would never have seen
any of his operas produced. Luckily
lie lived to so great an age that he re
ceived for many years the admiration
he deserved. Naturally enough,
though, this splendid artist regretted
his years of obscurity and neglect,
and he frequently sppke bitterly of
his bad fortune.
"Once, at the very end of his long
life, an Englishman entered his box
at the opera in Rome, and said re
spectfully:
"'I have traveled all the way from
London to see the author of my fa
vorito opera.'
"The veteran composer, with a ma
licious smile, replied:
"'Well, by friend, I have given you
plenty of time to get here.' "
