No hard and fast rules can be laid
down for the erection of a convenient
and efficient granary. Each problem'
require' a knowledge of local condi-
tions anti requirements. Granaries,
10 the majority of cases, are built -In
enclosures on the barn door, and
constructed with too little regard for
strength. durability and convenience -
These structures ebouid be located
Immediately over the feed room, each
bin having a chute with a controlling
slide, or a canvas dlatrlbutor to con-
vey the grain to the hopper of the
grinder; or, 1t the grain fa Intended
for market, to a sack placed on Athe
nettles below the chute ready to re-
ceive it. To facilitate emptying the
cram. the floor of the bins should
be eloping.
fie Sure the Structure Has Sufficient
strength.
The important consideration In
the construction of granaries and
bine tar loose grain is to be sure
that the structure is designed with
sufficient strength to prevent bulg-
ing of the sides and springing of the
door; for grain, owlrig to its enor-
mous outward thrust, corresponding
somewhat to that of water,. has a
tendency to burst the sides unless
well braced or supported. Timber
construction requires frequent re-
pairs to prevent decay and general
depreciation from use. It is always
liable to climatic conditions. The
boards will crack and shrink in the
summer when the bins may be
empty, and when the new grain is
dumped into the bins an enormous
quantity promptly disappears into
the cracks and crevices and through
mice holes, entailing considerable
loss to the farmer, to the consumer
and to the nation. Thousands of
bushels of grain are, in this way, an-
nually lost to the producers through*
sheer Indifference to the condition of
the granary. Yet this profitable
waste may be easily remedied and
made secure by lining the bins with
sheet metal.
Good Concrete Improves Wltb Age.
While there is an annual depre-
ciation on a timber structure varying
from four to eight per cent., concrete
eonstructlon grows better as it grows
old; hence concrete properly re-
inforced, is the ideal material for
granarlea, because it is both damp-
proof and rat -proof, two very essen-
tial factors In the construction of
granaries.
Concrete properly made to suit
existing conditions, is absolutely Im-
previous to moisture, and can be kept
as dry as any structure of wood ever
built. The' experience of many farm-
ers Is that grain mature enough to
be ,placed in storage will not spoil
on contact with 'concrete, nor will
corn mold, provided there. is good
ventilation and the roof is tight. To
get rid of rats and mice destroy their
nesting place and to this end con-
crete is pre-eminently the best ma-
terial and is recommended for all
farm structures.
Reinforced Concrete Pays.
Under average. present day, c n-
ditions a reinforced concrete gran-
ary may represent an additional out-
lay of about 25 per cent over that
required to construct of timber, but
the high efficiency distinctive of con-
crete quickly offsets this increased
initial cost. Concrete construction
has many, in short, important advan-
tages. The contents are safe from
the depredations of rodents, is damp-
proof, requires neither paint nor re-
pairs, Is fireproof, the grain is per-
fectly preserved under all conditions
of climate and temperature, and the
resulting structure Is practically
everlasting.—John Evans, 0. A. Col-
lege, Guelph.
Roguing Potatoes.
The average yield of potatoes per
acre in the Province of Ontario for
the past thirty-six years has been
about one hundred and fifteen
bushels. The yields vary greatly. In
1917 there were variations to On-
tario from twenty-five or less up to
seven hundred bushels per acre.
People are realizing more and more
that for high yields of potatoes con-
ditions must be favorable... It is im-
portant to have good fertile soil well
cultivated and to ¢!ant a liberal
supply of seed of the best varieties
at the proper time. Seed potatoes
somewhat immature which have been
produced in a cool climate, and
which are comparatively free from
disease, are apt to furnish seed of
high quality. Even under these con-
ditions it Is well to carefully inspect
the seed before planting and to thor-
oughly rogue the growing crop.
A potato field Is rogued by re-
moving the undesirable planta. A
thorough roguing of the growing
crop once or twice during the sum.
mer is one of the most effectual ways
in ridding the field of a number of
the potato diseases. This operation
would also Insure the immediate re-
moval of the weak and unthrifty
plants which are sure to produce un-
deatrable seed. Potato growers some-
times go through their fields and re-
move all plants which are not true
to type. When roguing Is done with
a double object of eradicating dis-
eases and of purifying the variety
decided advantages are cure to fol-
low. Thorough roguing is one of the
beet methods of securing pure,
healthy seed of .high quality.— Dr.
C. A. Zavltz, 0. A. College, Guelph.
If troubled with mustard in grain
crops, spray with a 20 per cent. solu-
tion of iron sulphate (two pounds of
iron sulphate' to each gallon of
water.)

twelve to sixteen years, when healthy
childreu should gain six to ten
pounds a year. they may gain only

To grow in height and gain regu-
larly in weight is just as much a
sign of health In a boy or girl of
nine or ten as in a baby. W' itever
the age uf the young individea:, the
rause or causes of malnutrition are
not ordinarily difficult to discover.
It may be that the child does not
grt enough food; that he does not
get the right kind of food; that he
spoils his appetite with candy or
pastry; that he eats irregularly be-
tween meals; that he bolts his food;
that ,he drinks tea and coffee instead
if milk and water; that he does not
get enough sleep; that he plays too
hard; that he gets too much emo-
tional excitement; that he is over-
worked in school or out; that his
teeth are decayed or his throat in
need of attention.
A diet composed only of meat,
potatoes, bread and cereals daps not
promise the best growth and develop-
ment of children. Such a diet
should be supplemented by an abun-
dance of milk, butter and green,
leafy vegetables. These are rich in
growth -stimulating "vitamines."
A boy from five to eight years old
should gain six ounces per month.
From eight to twelve years eight
ounces per month. From twelve to
sixteen years he should gain sixteen
ounces monthly. A girl should gain
six ounces monthly from five to
eight years, eight ounces a month
from eight to eleven years, twelve
ounces from eta en to fourteen years,
and eight ounces from fourteen to
sixteen years.
Stainless Spoons.
The housewife may now. for the
first time, buy stainless and rust-
proof spoons and forks. They are
made of chrome steel and are rather
expensive, but have the advantage of
needing no polishing.
Not long ago it was discovered
that ordinary carbon steel could be
rendered proof against oxidation and
also against acids by introducing in-
to
it c
13.per cent. rit. oP
chromium. The
idea of utilizing it for cutlery was
obvious enough, but the first efforts
made to that direction met with ser-
ious obstacles. Eventually, however,
they were solved, and so-called
"stainless" table knives have already
become familiar.
The chrome steel is. extremely
hard and cannot be forged by hand
in the time-honored fashion known
to cutlers. It must be hammered out
with a power hammer.
Its rustproof quality makes it
available for many uses, and it is
now cast Into stair rods, fire ions,
stove grates' and other articles for
the household. Automobile parts are
being made of the same material.
The problem of producing satis-
factory spoons and forks of chrome
steel did not find a solution until
very recently. It is claimed for
them that they are far better than
electro -plate, being machine -polished
and retaining their gloss indefinitely
without cleaning with anything more
than soap and water.
An Eccentric Scientist.
The eccentricities of scientists are
like those of artists, says Dr. Charles
F. Balduan, of the United States pub-
lic health service. There is, for in-
stance, the classic example of Dr.
Elle Metchnikoff, of the Pasteur In-
stitute, who became famous for the
discovery of the so-called bacillus of
long life, the microbe ..which makes
buttermilk sour. • The doctor was,
quite naturally, very particular about
germs. One day he was eating
grapes and he was so careful that
he washed each grape separately in
his water glass. Then he drank the
water in which he bad washed them.
Dancing is suggested as a compul-
sory study at West Point, the mili-
tary academy of the United States.

FROM AN 1)1.I) McKiLLOP
CORRESPONDENT
Toronto, September 26th.
Dear Expositor:
I will again, with your permission,
'mention sort* of the things good, bad
and indifferdrtt, which have been tak-
ing place in this great city during
the last fortnight. The most import-
ant has been the gathering of Odd -
fellows, the thre, link emblem being
visible everywhere. Wednesday was
the day in whiriu their big parade
took place. It tusk two hours to pass
a certain point, :,rid including autos,
was five miles :0 length and hail
upwards of thirty hands. The band
which I think ar otsed the most ten-
der emotions wa from an orphans'
home in Illinois, four girls and four
boys, all under s.xteen years of age.
The dear little orphans were well
trained in music, and our Canadian
Maple Leaf appeared to be their fav-
orite selection. A contingent from
Ohio, with a foie brass band and
members who numbered upward of
a hundred marched in single file with
waving plumes and beautiful decora-
tions, each man carrying a little
sword. The contingents of Rebekahs
were beautiful and inspiring. • For the
benefit of your readers some of whom
may not be conversant, I might say
that the Rebekahs are ,the feminine
clement in the order. Oddfellows
from Halifax to Vancouver in Can-
ada, and from Maine to California in
the States were in evidence, Michigan
sending six hundred. The morning
papers gave the numbers in the par-
ade as over 30,000, but the evening
Telegram, whose representative used
an adding machine, gave the numbers
as slightly under 10,000. At all
events it was a great parade and well
worth seeing.
I will now give your readers some-
thing not so joyous as the foregoin-
ing. Im one of the Italian settle-
ments on Sunday evening last, a fel-
low tried to enter a neighbor's home
in a disorderly manner. The neigh-
bor resented, when the intruder drew
a razor and slashed the other about
the face and arms. Another Italian
rushed to the help of the injured man
and he was also slashed with the
razor, the litigator vein . narrowly
escaping. The one who was first at-
tacked then rushed to his room with
the blood streaming from many
wounds, and emerged with a gun
and fired at the bad man, putting a
ball into him about an inch above
his heart. The three are inh
t e hos-
pital all still living but the rowdy
with the razor is in the most serious
condition.
A bright little Chinese girl, who
gained honors at the York Street
school, was envied by a Canadian
who kept calling her a Chink. Finally
the little China girl got tired of it
and said she, Ruby, if you keep call-
ing me a Chink I will call you a
Canwck.
The people here voted to take the
street railway from R. J. Fleming
and Company, and make it a_public
ownership concern. This was done
on the first of September and the
fares were increaaed fully fifty per
cent, and there is a mol'bitude who
growl like a bear with a sore head in
consequence, and are mad enough to
kick themselves 'because they did not
leave things as they were.
As your readers know am election
is impending, And it is said Meighen,
King and Crerar will each hold a
meeting here before election day. I•t
would be foolish for any one to pre-
dict what the result will be, but I
think it is perfectly safe to say that
neither one of the three parties will
eleot half the members.
I have sometimes wondered how the
old friends around Walton and what
once Was Leadbury pulled out
through the hot summer, and with
the prospect of a severe winter to
face. With their permission I , will
name a few of the old standbys who
have helped to make Western On-
tario what it is; John Dundee,

BRITAIN'S MYBTRMY PORT, PO*
FIRST T1Mi8 DI@SCR3BP.D.
Revelations of far secrets are the
order of the day. Up to this time
there has been notch reserve--ytl-\,
most aa if Britain were not abep'lute-
ly certain that the great tradegy had
ended.
The late.' lifting of the ban shows
secret details 'of the great mymtery
pont, one of the moat important of all
British war enterprises,'but so care-
fully concealed, event from English-
men, that thousands living within -a
few miles were ignorant of the porta
real character until' long after .the
ar.miatice,and many actually- - a -jdent
in the city, which sprang up by magic,
where a marsh had been about it, did
not have the least idea as to the im-
portance to the war of the community
in which they lived. -
This port is Riohborough on the
Kentish coast, between Sandwich and
Ramsgate. The Stour river was
diverted and immense docks builtpne
of thorn being not Jess .than 2,200 feet
long, abutting on a splendid basin. At
this and other docks immense steel
barges were loaded for the trip across
channel to the French ports of debark-
ation anal on these barges and the
manifold other craft constructed in
the great yards, bought of command-
eered for this war service, nearly all
the British artillery and supplies were
carried.
Much has been said about the super-
iority of German porta over Liverpool
and Southampton in the way of dock
and other machine facilities. No Ger-
man port ever was better equipped
than Richborough. Its cranes and
transportrs were plentiful, o1 ,im-
mense capacity and all electrically op-
erated.
Eighty miles of special railway
tracks were laid to serve the docks
alone and a shipyard was established
where nothing had existed prior to the
war except salt marsh. Electric -al
power .was produced from a central
station, a fine road was built to Rams-
gate and, presently, the port was the
principal British terminal for that
train -ferry service which was princi-
pally responsible for the efficiency of
British transportation of war material
in France.
The barges of this ferry were enor-
mous and could take an entire train
of the short freight cars which the
British railways use.
The immense importance of this
port to the final victory of the Allies
may be estimated when I say that not
less than one-third of all shipments
made from England to any of the war
zones, including, of course, that of
France and Belgium, were made from
Richborough. 'In one month, that of
October, 1918, the ferries going out
of Riehborough carried 132,000 tons
of supplies.
In 1918 when the British and French
suffered such disaster—in the last
week of March—the anmy of Britain
and much of that of French was re -
equipped with an almost instantane-
ous promptitude largely because of
the efficiency of this port.
Six hundred guns, which was the
total of the British loss, were re-
placed by new ones shipped from
Richborough in something less than
48 hours after the beginning of the
British knowledge of the great dis-
aster.
This was only one of the astonish-
ing feats of shipment which gave lus-
tre to the name of Richborough in the
minds of. the select few 'privileged to
know that such a port existed.
It is an extraordinary thing that the
Germans apparently never got a real
inkling of the importance of this port,

In all such cues Lydia E. Pfnkham's Vegetable Compound ehoald be given
as it is especially adapted for such conditions. It contains nothing that can
injure and can be taken in perfect safety.
Bead how Mrs. Eicher helped her daughter. She says:
"At the age of sixteen my daughter was baying trouble every month.
She had puna across her back and in her sides. Every mouth her back
would pain her so she could not do her work and would have to lie down. My
married daughter recommended Lydia E. Pinkham'e Vegetable Compout4
and I read the books which were left at my door. She took it faithfully and
15 now regular and hu no pain. We recommend the Vegetable Compound
and give you permission to publish this letter in your little books and m the
newspapers."—Mrs. KATte RICHER, 4034 N. Fairhill St., Philadelphia, Pa.
Mrs. Williams will profit by her own experience. She says;
" When I was thirteen year. old I had sick spells each month and as I was
very backward I would bear the pain and my mother knew nothing about it
I read in the daily paper about' Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
took my own apendiag money and bought a bottle. It helped me so much
that I took it regularly after that until I had taken two bottles and I did not
have any more pain or backache end have been a healthy, strong woman. i am
now 89 years old and have a little girl of my own, and when she gets old
enough I shall give her none other than Lydia E. Pinkham'e Vegetable Cc-.;-
pouniL"—Mrs. C. E. Wir.r.taw., 2437 W. Toronto St., Philadelphia, Pa.
For almost fifty years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound hes been
relieving women, young and old, of ailments peculiar to their sex. Ask your
neighbor about it, for m every neighborhood there are women who know of
Its merits.

despite the 'acknowledged perfection of
their epy service. Of course Rich -
borough was well equipped with air
defence facilities, but it was not called
upon to use them, for at no time did
it suffer serious attacks by Zeppelins
or aeroplanes although it was, of
course, within easy reaohing distance
for them.
The vessels constructed in the Rich -
borough yards were of the 'moat pure-
ly utilitarian character—the barges
for the train ferry, two boats, large
and small, rescue tugs—powerful sea -
brutes capable of hustling even great
ships into port after they had been
torpedoed tugs of every variety.
Some of the feats of these big tow-
boats during the war were most as-
tonishing. One notable feat was that
of the Saint Columb. It towed the
torpedoed armored cruiser Weymouth,
feared to be in a sinking condition,
a great distance to saftey in the Adri-
atic. The story of that feverish effort
in which men and Machinery co-ordin-
ated as they have not done so inany
times in history has become a tradi-
tion in the war history of the British
merchant marine. The steel barges
built at Richborough have shown
thetgaelves capable of heavy cargo
service on the open sea in very bad
weather.
r To -day the British government
'with respect to Richborough and its
craft is in much the same position
that the American government is in
with regard to Hog Island and the
shipping board craft. Tonnage is a
drug upon the market in England, as
it is in the United States, and those
who built up the port and produced
the many 'craft now lylmg idle there
under high pressure in war time now
are disgusted because no worthy bids
are made for them to be used in
peaceful service.
How many tons are rusting now at
Richborough? Only the officials
know and they won't tell. ,
