In February, 1S02, I bought a little farm conlaiiiing 70 acres, nini ii nil) VIIIIIKIV WIlllDlll at ' barn except a little old log pen, l'lxlti It-el. with a 10 loot shed on one side. This tiling would not shelter more then four head of stock or more than one small load of IV d. Hut as 1 had to buy my larm, team and toolfPentirely ^ on credit 1 was about $1,000 in debt. On this account I thought 1 had better try and get along with the old barn rather than go in debt still further for a new one. So things moiod along very well through the summer, and I made a pretty fair crop; but as winter came nearer the thought began toj trouble ni? us to what I was toi do with llu? crop which I had made. I had tin place to store it ' away and no stock to eat it. 1 ' conhl not alTord to sell my crop,, lor my hind was already poor and needed all of the material to u?> A*. hack on the 1:in 1 in the shape ot manure. At length I deci<led to Iiiiy twenty head ? ! yonnu: attic (y^fi Ulld Iced lllctn ill Sinn!! i <1 oiit door I l hoii'/hl l'\ leedin^ in a small I eon hi * ice ;ii" 1 of tie* lli.thi.l !'.

'ill. how I mli-uI for i good * barn, hut wishing 'li'! no good ^ Alter awhile winter passed awav. i ^ and my cattle were not worth a> w I much as they were when I bought 1 them. In the spring there was ;?^^P very little manure to be found. It had all been tramped down in! the mud, and the small quantity) I managed to get was of but little [ JASTE LAN CAST KR, S. value, as I ho oust < 1" it had ."ashed away. Of course, I was very much < 1 is- ! c'Mira^etl at this failure, ior tin re was a whole year's work jjone. wit h t wo or t liree hundred dollars' I worth of feed :m<l manure gone! with it, ami 1 was not worth a cent more than I was when I( bought the farm. It I had a good j barn all of this loss could have been prevented and a good prolit would have been made on the1 cattle besides. My neighbors, seeing that I was pretty blue un dor the disadvantages that sur-, rounded me. and the outcome of' my work, said t hat I he winter had I been an uncommonly hard one on stock.' and that it they were' in my place they would go ahead and try and get along without aj barn another year. I went ahead and made another lair crop and took the same butch el cattle I through another winter with about t lie same results as belore. Then, alter carrying these cattlei | through the second winter. 1 sold I them for about enough profit to ' pay the interest on the monov I . which was invested in them. At this point I was fully determined to have a good barn built before another winter came, regardless of what might follow, for I was satisfied that it would not make my condition any worse to go in debt for a barn than it would to try to farm another year without one. So I proceeded to buy fratn ing and other lumber which required to build a barn 3Gx00 feet on post9 twenty feet high. I em ployed good workmen, and before I the tirst frost came I had as good a barn as there wa? in this part of the county. Then L wont to work with renewed energies, feeling that I was just getting into the road to success, and I can thank < Jod that so far it has proven true in inv case. Soon after my barn was linished 1 had the third crop which 1 had made all stored snugly away. Then I needed another bunch of cattle. 1 soon managed to get the same number and as near the same quality as the lirsl as could | be found. I wanted to see tbei difference my new barn would 1 make.

Uehind tlie>i stalls there is a 1 <? feet space i-111111i11?jc full width of the barn, and also a 3.1-feet passage open Iroin driveway down the wall ti <paee behind the stalls. Stock can lie turned into these from tin outside of barn or from driveway. In the other end tit barn 1 have a harness room, UxlO feet on -idt wall ol barn entrance Irotn driveway. A1-.ii have a feed bin same si/.e as harness room. This i- fot bran, shelled corn, oat s, etc. I his gives me room for our ililferent lots ol stock, including horses, all of which can be fed from driveway in a very few minutes.as the feed mangers are just inside ol the -i-IViot boxing along driveway and all we have to do is to just drop the feed ov*er the low wall and it falls in the right place. In hot weather stock can stand with their heads over this low boxinu to drive way, and with big (loort open it gives a good, cool breeze through the barn. This makes it very pleasant lor the stock, and in addition to sheltering the ani m.ils it saves feed and manure It also prevents loss when a good crop of wheat is secured, to have a nice dry barn in which it can be stored. In conclusion. I wish to advise every farmer who has not a good barn to build one at once, even if he must live in a poor house for a while and go in debt lor lib barn. This, because with proper management, the barn will soon pay ior useii ana a gooa dwelling house besides. Taylor County, Kv. How to Prevent Pneu inon In.
