WAS_CONSTIPATED
Says Black-Draught Cured Him of
His Troubles of 12 Years
Standing.
3 ottville, N. .0.--Mr. James Dick
u an old resident of this place, un
Cf 1v War Veteran, recently made the
toltowing statement: "I am 67 years
oA1c and am an old soldier of the war
Cif '61. I had constipation for 12
years. The doctors said I would
never be any better, but now I can
tell them better. I had taken dollars
and dollars' worth of blood tablets, but
they got so they didn't do me much
good.
Then I got to taking your Black.
Draught, and I had not taken one full
)fackage until I found that it relieved
the constipation. I took two or three
packages, and it has cured me, and I
praise it to all of my friends."
Thousands of people in the past 70
years have found help for constipa
tion in the use of Thedford's Black.
Draught. Many families keep Black
Draught in the house all the time, and
use it at the least sign of constipation,
indigestion, biliousness, or other liver
troubles.
Black-Draught is purely vegetable
reliable and without bad after-effects.
Good for young and old. Get a pack
age from your druggist today, and
take a dose tonight. You will feel bet
tor tomorrow. Price 25c a package.
Costs only one cent a dose.-Adv.

By WILLIAM A. RADFORD.
Some of the buildings on the aver
age farm, as a matter of economy in
original investment and also in labor
cost of doing certain parts of the farm
work, may be designed to serve a mul
tiple purpose. Of the possible combi
nation buildings, perhaps the most log
ical is the combined ice house and
milk house. The appearance of the
farm is very much benefited by having
a smaller number of high-grade build
ings of somewhat larger size. A large
number of scattered outbuildings not
only result in the appearance of dis
organization, but this arrangement
very often actually results in the waste
of miles of walking between buildings,
when the matter is considered on a
basis of a year's time. Even though
the combination building be, in real
ity, two separate buildings under one
roof or two departments having no
/_ _
connecting aIrenway or pa1 llssages, the
result of the combinaton is the same,
if the selection of the par ts of the
combination is carefully made.
The ice house and the imilik house
must, of necessity,, be definitely sepa
rated by a wall well insulated against
variations in temperature, yet a goodl
proportion of the contents of the ice
house will eventually be used in the
milk room andl the comubination of
these buildings results in a saving of
time in filling the bunker or in obtain
lag lee for other purposes in the milk
house part of the building. Good dairy
men will not keep milk near the
ables, even though the law in their
.state does not force themi to observe
this precaution, The milk house is
then a necessity and it will ordinarily
be obtainedl in one of three ways: Ini
Icase theQ damiry bulsine'ss is large, a sep
arate building, fitted withu all of the
modern equfipmend~t necessar'y to the
conduct of a payinmg dairy business,
Iwill be needed. In ease the amount ofi

milk handled is not great enough to
warrant the use of a separate building,
the milk hlouse mullst be combined with
either the farmuhouse or the ice house.
Under certain conditions, the farmer
might desire an extension to his house
which would ingude bothu the Ice
house and the ilk house. A farm
house designed in this way is among
others in a group of designs recently
Drepared by the United States depart
mnent of agriculture. If such a schjeme
is not used, the combined bilding
should, nt least, be placed as near tihe
farmhouse as- possible.
There are certain conditions wvhichu
must be taken into account in building
tile ice house. The first is that its lo
cation must be such that good drain
age is possible. There is always a loss
by melting and the water must be car
ried well away from the building and
disposed of either in the soil, through
a drainage system already in place or
by connection with- a stream. The de
sign will account for the other condi
tions, which are related to the proper
constructnonn ofe w..als a.,d ..oof of
the building to secure sufficient in
sulation to prevent undue loss. Struc
tural tile has been found an excellent
material for the' constauction of farm
ice houses. Its ordinary use provides
a series of dead air spaces which are
very effective as an insulation against
temperature variation. It is, of course,
necessary to use care in the constrdc
tion of the walls so that no leaks are
present to admit warm air to the in
jerior of-the house. The inside of the
house must be lined with some water
proofed insulation so that moisture
does not have an opportunity to work
into the mortar joints and body of the
tile.
Within the main walls of the fee
house there may be a partition placed
near one end to form a milk room and
ice bunker. Such an arrangement is
more economical of ice than to build
the milk room in some part of the milk
house remote from the ice house. The
door into the milk room should be
constructed in the same manner as the
continuous doors placed in the outside
wall of the ice house.
The milk house size and arrange
ment will depend upon the method of
handling the milk. If special equip
ment is used, provision must be made
'for it in the house. There is more to
be considered than simply the size.
For instance, the farmer who wishes a
gasoline engine in his milk house, to
turn the separator, churn, ice cream
freezer or whatever other equipment
is used requiring power, must have
provision for the playing of a concrete
base, at the time of pouring the foun
dation and floor, and an outlet must be
provided in the wall or roof for the ex
haust pipe of the engine. If a boiler
is required, it may be necessary to pro
vide special floor construction for it.
In any event, the milk house should be
provided with a chimney and a cooling
tank should be conveniently placed,
in the design. Unless a supply of pure
water is near at hand and can be con
veniently piped to the milk house, itjs
advisable to place a pump in the milk
house. Some farmers place the equip
ment of their water supply system for
the farm in their dairy house. The
washing of cans and milking utensils
requires a small sInk which should
be placed where there is plenty of
light.
Thle combined ice house and dairy
shown in the accompanying perspective
and floor plan is a well-designed build
ing of very neat appearance. The walls
of the building are of structural tile,
built upon a concrete foundation. The
ice is intended to he covered with saw
(lust or straw that has been put
through the cutting box. Continuous
doors for easy filling extend from the
concrete wall almost to the peak of
the building.
The dlairy is big enough to handle
the milk from a good-sized dairy herd
w~hen the milk is run through the sep
nrator and the skimmned milk fed to
wvell-bred young stock as quickly as
possible after being separated. One
of the easiest and best ways of start
ing a farm dairy business is to handle
the milk in this way. The cream should
be sent either to the city or to the
creamery. Skimmed imilk when fed to
pure-bred calves anid pigs haos a spe
cial value that brings better returns
than selling the milk. There is very
little fertility carried away from the
farm in cream cans. Farmers who do
a careful dbairy business have valuable
stock and get high prices for the ani
mals fed In this way. The value of
the dairy house can only be measured
by takingE into account all of the vari
ous features of the business such as
this method of feeding suggests,
