BUILDING THE 011ANARY
!Strefiktlisand Conve0ence Should:.
be Catefully Considered.
,
ReinfottetitGonceete Is Preferable to
Tifilber -14. It Make's tthe Granary'
• Sae,* From Rodentn--Roguing,
.Tinfitoen• ,
(Contatileuted by Ontario Department of
, A.griculture, Toronto.)
No hard and fast rules can be laid
down for the erection of a convenient
and efficient granary. Each problem
requires. a knowledge of local condi-
tions. and requirements. Granaries,
in the majority of cases, are built -in -
enclosures on the barn floor, and
constructed with too little regard for
strength, durability and convenience.
These structures should be located
immediately over the feed room, each
bin havifig a chute with a controlling
slide, or a canvas distributor to con-
vey the grain to the hopper of the
grinder; or, if the grain is intended
for market, to a sack placed on the
scales below the chute ready to re-
ceive it. To facilitate emptytng. the
grain, the floor of the bins should
be sloping.
Be Sure the Structure Rao Sufficient
Strength.
The important consideration In
the construction of granaries and
bins for 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
floor; for grain owing 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 alwaye
'liable to climatic conditions. The
boards will crack and shrink in the
summer when the bins may be
empty, and when the new grain •t$
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 natlon. Thousands of
bushels of grain are, in this way, an-
nually lost to the producers througb
sheer indifference to the condition of
the granary. Yet this profitable
waste may be easily remedied and
made secure by lining the bins witb
sheet metal.
Good Concrete Improves With Age.
While there is an annual depre-
ciation on a tinnier structure varying
from four to eight per cent., concrete,
construction grows better as it grows
old; hence concrete properly re-
inforced, is the ideal materialfor
granaries, because it is both damp-
proof and rat -proof, two very essen-
tial factors in the constructioe 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
core 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 eon -
vete is pre-eminently the best ma-
terial and is recomMended for all
farm structures.
Reinforced Concrete Pays.
Under average, present day, con-
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 sere from
the depredations of rodents, is damp-
proof, requires neither paint nor re-
pairs, is fireproof, the grain is per-
fectly preserved under ail conditions
of climate and temperature and the
resulting structure is practically
everlasting.—John Evans;•0. A. Col-
lege, Guelph.
Roguing Potatoes.

That the future erosperity of the
Maritime Provinces, as well as the
whole of Canada, depended on the
routing of Canadian trade over Ca-
nadian railways and through Cana-
dian ports, was the view expressed
by Dr. Murray MacLaren, M.P. for

Tens of thousands of caribou are
treitkinhe eouthwards through Yukon
Territory for the winter. Bands elf
them hays passed through the out-
skirts of Dawson City. For a hun-
dred miles down, bands of caribou
can be seen swinuning the Yukon
river and sometimes surrounding
canoes and steamboats as they pees.
Part of the 15,000 feet of movnig -
pictures taken for the Dominion at --
alien by the Arctic expedition in
charge of Captain Bernier, which
• has just returned from the northern
regions, are to be shown in Quebec
City shortly. ..They contain inter-
esting incidents of the life of the
Eekimo and typical scenes of the
_Northern land.
Up to the end of June. 1923, ac-
cording to E. W. Beatty, President
of the Canadian Pacific Railway,
the Compaey had disposed of 18,-.
194,737' wares of 'agricultural lands,
for which an average price of $7.87
per acre was received. During this
period the Company had, by direct
effort of its own, secured the settle-
ment of over 100,000 farmers
Western Canada.
A splendid bunting year with a
late open fall is reported from Brit-
ish Colunibia. A world's record Os-
born caribou was killed by D. W.
Bell, of Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
The length of the head. was 65 efi,
inches, spread 55 inches and thirty-
eight points. A party of three, of
whom Bell was one, bagged nearly
100 pieces.
A total of 40 round voyages to the
port of St. John, New Brunswick,
constituting an increase of six over
last winter's figures, is announced
by the Canadian Pacific in a newly
issued schedule of operations for the
winter port. The S.S. Montclare
will be the first liner to leave Sts
John after the close of St. Lawrence
navigation, sailing for Liverpool on
December 7th.
Captain S. Robinson, R.N.R., the
hero of the Japanese disaster, who
commanded the Empress of Aus-
tralia when that ship was in Yoko--
hama harbor at the time of the
earthquake, has been fittingly hon-
ored by the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way. He is to command the com-
pany's steamship, the Empress of
Canada, when the ship leaves New
York, January 30th, on a world
cruise.
