It should be large enough to permit the /setting' and adjusting' of the float valve after the concrete has been poured. After the concrete has set, the box or barrel can easily' be remov- ed by breaking apart and removing a piece at a time. The outside form is the earth wall made by digging a hole for'the chamber. After selecting the inside form, pick out a euitable location in the feed lot, which is sheltered from the winds in winter ane' shaded in summer. Dig put, so that the insides form will set In.. with about six inches clearance on all sides, and then dig a place for the drinking trough.

Set a tin pan or old kettle or crack- ed flat jar in place for forming the cup; also put the coniaecting pipe in place, when the concrete is being pour- ed and reaches this height. A film of oil or grease should be rubbed over pan or kettle so that the concrete will riot bond to it, and so that it moy easily be removed when the concrete Is set.

The markets intelligence report of the Dominion Live Stock Branch for the first quarter of 192318 particular- ly full and interesting and should be well studied by every one concerned in the live stock and meat trade of the country. Following are some of the facts to be gleaned: That the marketings of cattle at Canadian stock yards during the quarter were approximately 149,000 compared with 129,000 in the same period last year. That cattle prices during' March were on the average about 25 per cent. lower in the West and about, even in the East compared with prices in the previous month, and that at the close they were 50c up in the west and $1 in the East. - That thesetore cattle movement this year for the quarter totalled 18,937; compared with 14,804 for the same period last year. That the Increase Is largely duo to good prospects for trade in the autumn feeder markets In Great Britain. That prices in, March were about a dollar higher than in February. That, a feature of the store cattle market was the gen- eral high standaed of the purchases.' That the hog movement was 31 per, cent, greater up to March 81 this year than last year, that slaughterings were 20 per cent. more this year than last, and that prices on the average: were about three dollars down. I That the sheep and larnb movement' is about 5,000 head this year more than last year, end that prices for good Iambs iu March were 500 to $1. better than in March, 1922. That the export teade in cattle and calves showed up in the firet three months of this yoar alrnost 200 peri cent. better then last year, that the export of beef was appro.e.imately 62 per cent. 'better, that bacon was 12, per cent. better, and pork 186 per, cent. better. Exports of sheep and mutton were lighter, I That all Canadian stores( offered in Great Britain have sold at high prices,' the average being well in line with the prices ruling for domestic stock.

Recently a farmer took me out to his barn to show me SOT110 horses he had just purchased. As I stepped into the runway of the barn, I noticed a large blackboard hung on the side wall. It had two large headings chalked on it. One was "Rush Repair Jobs" , and the other, "Spare -Time Jobs." Under "Rush Jobs" I read, "Cattle yard gate sagged"; "Big Ben's collar ripped"; "Grapes ripe for jell"; "Auto spark -plugs dirty"; "Loose cog on windmill"; "East line -fence down," etc. Under the heading "Spare -Time Jobs," I read, "Chicken roosts loose"; "Lawn -mower needs sharpening"; "Paint new hayrack";; "Fix eaves - trough"; "Fasten bale on sorghum barrel," etc. "Ie thie one of your thne-savers?"' 1 inquired. "It sure is," he wpiied. "I figure , that board nets me around a dollar a day at least, just as a reminder to us tall to do the needed thing. You see,l the hired man may come in from the field a half-hour before dinter, which iS not enough time to make it pay to; begin on the other field until after; 'eats.' He can just step up to this board and read what is the most pressing thing to be done around the piece and, without welting for me to come in from some other end of the farm, he cell go right ahead. "Tf one of the boys hae a few min - Ides, he ean get the ripeed collar and have it mended and ready for Big Ben when he has to don his herness agein. Even tho women egine Mat and read the bulletin board, "Whoever ha e been Ito the garden or Out in the orehaed, earl tell af the grapes are 'reedy for jell; or if the peas are big enough to pick; or if a stolen nest has been found. "Every one can write on the board, and thus all the odd jobs are listed. And when any one has taken over a job and finished it, he erases it from the board. It takes a careful watch to keep in mind all the odd jobs around a big acreage like this one. "When we are prevented from go, Ing to the fields by rain, we can find our job written down for us, and this eliminates all chance of retarding the work at hand when the sun does shine, for all our tools are ready; no broken machinery has been forgotten; and no odd job has been overlooked,. for the jobs are slated there for all to reed. "I keep a good set of repair tools on hand and have a place for eaeh tool, I find that if the head of the terra employs simple devices, it impreesee the most careless of farm hands, and they certainly don't have this excuse that they 'didn't know that Job was "It's ta red-letter day when our slate is clean, and we certainly enjoy the vacation we all get evhele no one 0815 find an odd job to write down on the beard." jeet a look around that well -kept barn, the tool shed and the machinery sheds convinced me that theTe was no waste or negligence' on this farm. "Perhaps," I reasoned as I went on for a look at the horses, "this is a big part of the secret of this one farm, er's suceese," Many doaf poesons seem to be able more or less distinctly to hear sounds that reach them by evireless, so thati some who have always been deaf non' enjoy music tor the first tiMe.
