ETERT .farnaer atiouU «ar* for bla farm buildings In tiieh a way aa to maintain th*m !k good serviceable eondltioa and BO conserre his reacurcea gea- erally. On most farms there ar* many details In themselves of minor importance, but la th* aggregate of tremendoua influence. Carelosaness of the exterior of buildings la an in- dication, generally, of tho conditions existing In their Interior. Slorenly surroundings and general run-down conditions ara the ball-marks of In- eptitude and mismanagement. The farmer may not be able to Changs the location of hia farm, but to a great extent be can control ita appearance and genei-al conditions by seeing that the roofs are in good repair and weather tight, the fences in place, gates in order and painted, on hingea, not sagging or dragging on the ground, the latches and hingea of all doora and gates greased and operating freely; no broken lights in the window saahes of the various buildings; the stable fixtures In order, the stanch- ions and partitions in place, and th* mangers and Soor in good repair, giving to the whole place the impres- sion that it receives prudent care and regular attention. Investigations have disclosed the fact that concrete is an ideal material for repairing and making in th* bands of a resourceful person on the farm. Publications issued by cement manufacturers as to tools and ma- terials used, aggregates, proportion- ing the mixture, how to mix, how to plan forms, reinforcement, etc., may be obtained for the asking. Doors â€" The ordinary stable door construction of two thicknesses of matched lumber is not satisfactory, because the effect of the warm moist air of the stable on the inside ply of lumber causes it to swell, while the outer lumber, being less affected, causes the door to spring out top and bottom. A panelled door is less af- fected because the expansion and contraction resulting from atnios- pUeric conditions is taken up by the panels. To hang a door hold it up against the jambs and mark ronnd with a pencil. Then cut down to these lines, Make it % narrower and % shorter. The hinges should be placed about six inches from the top and the lower one ten inches from the floor. The thickness of the casing should be taken from the total width of the hinge, the balance, divided by two, gives ttie distance the hinge is to set back from the face side of the door. In all cases the hinge should bo wide enough to reach across two-thirds of the thickness of tho door. Heavy doors should have three hinges. The mortise for the hinge of the door should bevel slighilf toward the front, so that the hiuiie will uol strike tho jamb. Setting locks for the door â€" • Rira locks are those that are simply screwed on to the face of the door. Mortise locks are those set into a mortise in tlie door ilself. The rim lock is held in position and marked for keyhole, knob-bar hole, and screw holes. The fust two are cut and the last are bored and the lock screwed into place. The escutcheon ajul kuob plates are put ou, and tho keeper is then put on to the jamb. The mortise lock is set inlo the mortise cut in the door jnst wide and deep enough to admit it, tho face plate of the lock being set fiuHh with the face of the edgo of the door. Mark for the knob-bar and ke.vhole ioles. Set Uie l.ocij i'.o'I fis'.eii iji; tho knob plates and escutcheon set, and knobs adjusted. The keeper is then mortised into its proper place, flush with the edge of the jamb. Roof. â€" See that the roof is tight. Remember that there are shingles and shingles. The old standard size 18 inches long â€" Ave butts together to equal 2^ inches â€" are superior in several ways to the present method of cutting them to 16 inches long, six butts of two inches. Much de- pends on the way the shingle is manufactured. A roughly cut shingle will not give good service because of its tendency to draw the water up under the weather lino by capillary attraction, and the "fuza" harbors dust, making good hold for moss to Start growing. The edging should be smooth and carefully done so that the butts are slightly narrower than the points so as to allow any debris to pass through the joints and not accumulate and start a rot. Cattle Ties and Mangers. â€" Th* comfort of the cattle Is of great im- portance as it affects the milk pro- duction and their feeding qualities. Whatever typ* of manger is used simplicity of construction, conven- ience of feeding and cleaning shoull be considered. Tho swivel of th* chain eow-tl* should be examined to see If it works fr**ty. Ia any e«s« apply a littl* gTMMO to it. Any weak or broken links may b* neatly and effectually secured by using a silt-link or a wire link mad* out mt two or three turns of fence wire through the links, al- lowing th* ends long enough to be crossed and wound round the strands in opposite direction after tho manner of the lineman's spile*. The staaehJona. links and swivels should b* atteaded to in similar way. â€" Prof. Joha Braas, 0, A.
