AIL L. N. Bonham of Ohio has fur-
nished to The Breeder's Gazette the fol.
lowing plans and description of a model
sornorib and granary:
• The cheapest building for a crib ol
granary is square, of capacity enough
for the grain prodnoe on the farm. But
as corn is stored when not entirely dry
It can be cured better in narrow cribs.
On this theory I have two oribs set par-
allel under one roof and 12 feet apart.
This given a driveway of sufficient size
40 store reaper, mower and all imple-
ments of the farm, if necessary to store
them here—which we do not, as they
make a harbor for rats and give stand -

•ing place for gnawing their way into
the cribs. So, if this driveway should
be used for implement room, care should
be taken not to let any of the tools or
implenaents come -near enough to the
sides of the crib to give rats a chance -to
gnaw their way in.
The cribs are each 6 by 86 feet at the
bottom and 8 by 36 feet at the top. Thl
object of this is to give the sides of the.
cribs an outward slope, which serves
two or three valuable purposes. First,
it prevents rats climbing up the sides;
second, it prevents rain driving into
corn, and, third, cnankes it easier scoop-
ing corn from wagon. Rats will climb
up the perpendicular sidesof a crib to
an open winhow or even to the top of
the orib. To prevent their going over
top" of crib we have a board extending
six inches over the edge of the ties and
plate to which the slats are nailed. The
windows must not be left open after
the oorn is put in.
The bottom of each crib- ie 6 by 86
feet and rests on stone foundations
three feet in ground. The earns are 8 by
10 inches by 86 feet, and the joiats are
2 by 10 inches by 6 feet, There has
been no Nettling or springing in. 2.0
years. ,The sills rest on the stone piers
18 inches thick afoot and a half- above
ground4 This gives thorough ventila-
tion, which preyents decay of timbers
or burrowing of rate. There is no plank
floor laid in the driveway,as that
would make a harbor for rats, and the
floor is of no advantage except in emp-
tying the crib, at which time we lay
down three boards a foot wide and 12
feet long and have a side board held
perpendicular by three stakes. This
makes a temporary platform to scoop
from and into which corn runs from
three windows 2 by 2 feet, hung at top
and fastened at bottom with a strong
button. There are three windows on
eaoh side of the driveway above the
others for receiving corn when the cribs
are filled. These windows are 4 by 4
feet and are fastened by a strong wood-
en button. After the crib is filled to
middle of these windows the corn is
thrown over the top. With top of crib 8
by 36 feet tbere can be stored after the
crib proper is full to the square one-
third more corn.
The framework consists of three vents
12 feet each. The space over the drive-
way juts out 12 feet at each end, is floored
over, and here we have room for several
hundred bushels of corn or 1,000 bush-
els of wheat. This crib and granary is
absolutely ratproof if the doors and
windows are not left open longer than
when used to put in or take out corn
and .if one is careful not to set boards
or tools against the cribs for resting
places for rats to gnaw their way in.
Our slats on the outside and inside of
the cribs are oak, 3 by 13I, inches and
half an inch apart. Care was taken:not
to use any slats - with sappy or wavy
edges, but with all our care the car-
penters put on one which we did not
notice, but which the rats found the
tint year and began to gnaw their way
in from resting on the door cleat which
came near the defective slat. I give this
incident to inipress the prospective
builder with the fact that when he un-
dertakes to build a retproof crib or
granary he must watch every point and
do no slack work.
It will be noticed that the size of our
ties may seem heavy, but the fact is
they are not too heavy, nor- are our
polyp too heavy to prevent springing
when the crib is loaded. All the frame -
the ippide of the crib as high as the
3utside. If we have no wheat on hand,
we can also fill the parts over the drive-
way and thus get into the crib about
4,000 bushels.
This crib has been in use about 20
years and has cost nothing for repairs,
has noct sprung out of line in the floor or
sides, ithd as it stands about 200 feet
from any other building we feel secure
against rats and fire. The driveway is
closed by sliding doors, which when
locked raakes a safe store for the oOrn
crop. The narrow slatted cribs have also
perpendicular ventilators placed in front
of each receiving window where corn is
likely to pack and mold if at any place
in the ogib. These ventilators extent]
from floor to roof, and we never have
any moldy corn and can begin to crib
a little earlier than farmers who put
corn in rail pens or in their barns. I
think we save enough from rats to pay
the interest on the investment, and the
stock appreciates the sound, clear corn
and gives us better growth than can be
made from the same number of bushels
of rat stained, moldy corn.
To the inquirer I would say that we
have pulleys for lifting wagon bed oz
for hoisting grain, and can store onr
corn, wheat and implements in the
building we have described. I prefer,
however, to store the implements in an-
- other room at the barn and wie this
driveway as a wagon shed.
BOTTOM OF FRAMEWORK.
work is of beech, as that is stiff, strong
and costs leas than oak. The rafters are
pine 2 by 6 and the sheathing is fencing
1 by 6. The shingles are the best pine.
The gables are weather boarded with
poplar. All outside work is painted
every five years. The posts are 12 feet
long, 6 by 8 inches. Ties, 12 feet long,
4 by 8 inches, 8 to a post. There are 4
ties 6 by 0 inches 26 feet long, which
are tenoned into the outside posts and
:active in a mortise the inside posts,
which are one foot shorter than the out -
Odds posts. This makes the inside of
esnh crib one foot lower than the plate
db which the rafters rest and snake' it
easier to fill the crib. If the crop is
heavy, we set a board on edge, making

of rheumatism is Proof -ilia there is no
certain knowledge of its character; It
is found to be associated with disorders
of the throat and stomach and with dis-
tinctly nervous affections. The varieties
run from muscular rheumatism to neu-
• ralgia, yet as to what tissues are moat
,involved in the worst form of the died

volved there are as many opinions as
there ae varietiei of rheumatism
The rheumatic' patient, who S01210 -
times suffers all the pangs of gout; has
a hard enough time of it at best with-
out being regarded 20 a center of phye-
ioal as well as moral pestilence.. He is
irritable, pugnacious, impatient, un-
grateful and profane. His immediate
relations bear with these mortal infirm-
ities became of the obvioui reality of
his enfferinge. They generously put
themselves within the range and reach
of his shoes or whatever missiles he has
ai hand, in order that he may vary the
monotony of pain with the pleasure ed

away from his bedside all sympathetio

What the victims of rheumatism have
a right to maintain is that the doctors
know- too little about the'dinease. They
are too helpless in He violent stage to
have any warrant for further dogmatic
affirmations about it. If rheumatism is

Kinds of Horses Wanted Abroad.
The following is an extract from the
address of F. J. Berry of Chicago before
the farmers' institute at Springfield,.
I will divide the export demand int(:
five different classes:
First.—Drivers and coachers, which
must be well bred, of good color, from
15.3 to 16M hands, with fine head and
neck, plenty of Nine and substance,
with good knee action and plenty Of
quality, They must be good travelers,
and if they.have some speed all the bet-
ter. This class of horses has already ad-
vanced very much in. price and very
soon will be as high priced as ever.
Present values range from $150 to $300
per horse.. •
Second. —The cab horse, weighing
about 1,100 pounds, 153 hands, a rug-
ged but smooth made 'horse, with bone
and substance and a fair traveler. Pres-
ent price averages about $75. .
Third. —The bus . home, weighing
from 1,200 to 1,400 pounds, 16 hands,
smooth, rugged made and one that can
move off at a fair gait and shape him- e
self -well in harness. Present price is --
from $80 to $125.
Fourth. —The draft horse, which
should weigh from 1,500 to 1,800
pounds, should be rugged made,- good
bone and blocky built, with smooth,
finish and a first class draft horse in
every respect. Present -price is from
$100 to $200. .
Fifth.—The American trotter, which
in all cases must be a high bred horse,
with plenty of bone and action and sub-
stance, high finish, good disposition,
and the more speed he has the highel
price he will bring.' He ranges in price
from $200 to $5,000 per horse, according
to his quality, size and speed. --
All horses. for exportation must be
perfectly sound and without blemish
and are • bringing at .present a higher
range of prices than horses sold for any
other niarket.

14 iS a wonder that live stook raisers
do not add to their industry the breed-
ing of small donkeys. As (Ise country
grows richer more and more city people
seek the suburbs to live and. to raise
their families. Among children a don -
'key is a perpetual delight—a little fel-
low, gentle, 'hardy and strong, frisky
enough to play with the children, good
natured enough for them te ride or
drive wherever they please. We know
.of such an animal in a- suburban fans-
" ily, and nothing could take its place. •
It is better than a pony, stronger for its
Mae and more easily kept. , The big
mule isingood demand, but so is the
little donkey for children.
Actually several prize lists of live
stook shows this year contain ,the name
of "Ootswell" sheep. A live stock breed-
er who by this time does not know the
. right name of a Cotswold would make
a mistake in spelling the 'name- of
George • Washington. &ion errors are
unpardonable. It was Josh Billings
who said it was better not to know so
much, than to know so Much that was
not go. We recomnsend this to live
stook men who do not know -how to
write correctly the names of the breeds
they have been raising for years.
In New York three combined Ken-
tucky harness and saddle horses sold
lately for $1,000 apiece.
There is a better demand for well bro-
ken,- special purpose horses this year
than there was lea, and prices are 25 per
cent higher. The dejection and depres-
sion of the horse market for the past
few years has been largely a protest
against the tras y stock put upon the
market.. Now fmrniers know what is

Experiments conducted at the agri-
gulturaa station of that state show un-
mistakably that the Texas tick on cat-
tle will produce the dread disease
known as Texas fever. The remedy is
careful dipping of all cattle from that
state or points adjaceut. Apparatus has
now been evolved which makes it pos-
sible to dip a large number of beeves
quickly and economically. The above
; fact' alone, ascertained by the 'Texas
station experts, is a suffieient answer to
cavilers who ask what good the 1 state
experiment farms do.
In robing beef calves, let them run
with the dam till they begin to chew
the cud. This rule is also best where
you are rearing pure bred dairy calves
to sell as stock animals. The Calves
must be fed besides—not too much; just
enough --so soon as they are old enough
to eat.
Hogs getting their living by rooting
.in the manure after cattle make good

Mr. Albert Blair, writing in the St.
Louis Globe-Demoorat spout President
Lincoln, remarks especially upon his
unaffectedness, and in so doing relates
a story which, may prove an encour-
agement to readers who havasometimes
found themselves ignorant where ' they
had supposed themselves well informed.
In February, 1865, Mr. Blair was
present at a White Honse reception, a
general reception, open to everybody.
Mr. Lincoln was attended by Judge De -
yid Davis, who took the names of all
comers and introduced them, to tke
president.
Of course there was a crowd, and no-
body baci time for more than a word
and a handshake. Mr. Blair was pre-
sented to the president, and then step-
ped aside to watch the show. Mr. Lin-.
coin and Judge Davis. carried on a Oft-
• versation, constantly interrupted though
