A Sixteen-Sided Barn.

J. Mackaj describes in The National Lire Stock Journal a barn which it certain!y novelty. It is something more. A study or tho matter may convince the rural reader tbat, on ali accounts, a barn of this shape may be the best that can be built

The barn is built on Mr. Mackay's farm at Mt Carroll, Ills. It is sex-decagon, or sixteen-sided. He is emphatic that the eight and sdxteen°sided farm building is the best For less cost, for the same space, for light, ventilation, ease and rapidity in accomplishment of work, be declares it will stand favorable comparison with any other shape. Farther: "Toe mowing and removing of the hay is less difficult in octagonal or sexdecagon barns than in rectangular, inasmuch as there are no posts, etc., in the way when putting in the hay, and no settled hay to pull from under cross-beams and braces, -etc., when taking it out"

SKX-DECAOON BARN.

The barn is 100 feet in short and 103 feet In long diameter. The poets are 28 feet high hip rafters, 48 feet cupola, 30 feet in diameter. An traplanked driveway, 14 feet wide, passes through the center of the barn. The hay floor is 9 feet from the ground, and is divided by the driveway. The cattle are chained or fastened in stanchions, ten f«et from the outside wall, and face toward the center. A feed way, 8 feet wide (including mangers), passes around in front of cattle. The remainder of the ground space is taken up by box stalls, bins, calf pen, etc. The milk cows and young belfen are stalled on the left side, and the fattening cattle are chained upon the right aide. Three bay chutes on each side of the driveway and over the feed alley give ample room for feeding hay from the mows. In front of the fattening cattle and across the alley is a manger to which some unchained stock cattle have access. Hie good hay which the fattening cattle will not eat is taken from them and put in manger for stock cattle.

S. 8. are box stalls. C. P. is a calf-pen. It is customary now to provide a closot for privy purposes in all barns. It is necossary to docency and comfort. Counting seven cubic feet for a ton of bay, this barn will hold over 400 tons of hay from the hay floor to the plato.

Two spaoes or "bents" on each side of the driveway are reserved for sheaves and straw. The threshing machine is used in the driveway, and all the bay, straw and grain are stackod inside. The milk cows, etc., are allowed a space of 2K wide, and 5 feet long, back to drop, which is 6 inches deep, and reaches back to the wall. Where the cows stand it is only planked 3 feet from tho back to the front. The fattening cattle stand on a slightly sloping floor, 5 foot long, with drop tho same as the other, each animal being allowed 8 feet wide. A wire *nble extends from "horse" on hip rafter to its opposite one on tho other side. It is supported in tho oenter by light iron rods banging down from cupola rim. Ho uses a hay carrier. Four bents are filled at each setting of tho cable, then ends are loosened from "horses" and put in others, leaving tho center undisturbed. By this means the entire hay floor may I covered and filled w.th but comparatively little labor.

Manure is loadod on a wagon, or sled, which is driven in when cattlo are out. and hauled directly to the floid, care being taken that its application be upon ground that i& nearly level. This method of handling manures has given satisfaction in many ways. Lets handling, the valuable time of summer saved in hauling, little loss •of substance compared with manure left out in yards through ell the spring rains, and tho immediate benefit is readily seen in the «pring growth of the crops.

It will now be well for you to visit the old stock in eight days from the time you made your new swarm and 836 if they have a new queen yet hatched, which will be the case if they bad queen cells made at tbe time you made your artificial swarm but if they bad no queen cells made at that time it will be fourteen or sixteen days before a queen is batched, at which time it is more safe to exchange a frame of unsealed brood from some other stock. This will prevent them swarming when the young virgin queen takes her bridal trip, which she must do in order to further propagate her species and replenish the stock with a working force.

The Care of a BulL [Live Stock Journal.]»

"Never give him a chance to hurt you," was the good advice of an experienced breeder to a young farmer who was showing how gentle his recent acquisition, a purebred bull, was. The advice was sound, for there is nothing gives a man more confidence in dealing with a possibly dangerous animal than the knowledge that be is master of the situation. A display of anger by the bull, on the other hand, when ill prepared for

him, results in his keeper's displaying either fear or violence, as the case may be, and in either case the effect on tbe bull is objectionable. Calmness and firmness are great desiderata in dealing with the bull, and are far more easy of attainment when a man feels he is safe from danger. Hie bull's attendant should therefore never be foolhardy or incautious. Let him make friends with the animal, for bulls, like every other animal, appreciate a kind word or friendly pat, and some say a good grooming with a stiff brush is sure to win them but however gentle and tractable the bull is, never relax your vigilance, and always handle him with proper precautions. Baiting an animal, when secure from harm, is the favorite amusement of some boys, and even some men. Such persons should be summarily ejected from any premises where bulls, or, indeed, any animals are kept. Pf

Florists' Meeting.

Aug. IS the first annual meeting of the Society of American Florists began at Cincinnati and continued several days. It was the most important meeting of the kind ever held. New York sent 100 delegates. From 8,000 to 4,000 rare and novel plant* were exhibited. Some of the florists brought several hundred window plante to the show. Interesting papers were read on topics such as these: "Forcing of Bulbs and Plants for Winter Use ''Diseases of Plants and their Remedies "The Floral Embellishment of Parks and Gardens

The Cut Flower Trade—Salo, Shipment and the Mutual Interests of Grower, Commission Man and Retailer "Tbe Propagation of Roses and their Subsequent Treatment "What shall be Grown for Early Spring and Summer Out Flowers," and "How to Prevent Damage by HaiL"

irk"- The White Daisy Pest. Tbe Husbandman declares the got rid of white daisies, which are becoming a nuisance in some parts of Michigan, as well as in New York, is to enrich the land, saying that it is a peculiarity of this plant that it will not overrun rich soil By top drening the meadows liberally for several successive seasons, or by enriching the soil, and raising grain the daisies are "run out" and more profitable crops possets the land. The Husbandman considers the advice often given to attempt extermination by cutting when in blossom is erroneous, and sure tc result in disappointment.

Summer Beverage.

First put into a large pan a quarter of a pound of fresh, fine oatmeal, six ounces of white sugar and half a lemon cut into small pieces. Mix with a lictle warm water then pour over it one gallon of boiling water, stirring all together thoroughly, and use when cold. This makes a most refreshing and'strengthening drink. If preferred, raspberry vinegar, citric acid or any other flavoring may bo used instead of the lemon. More oatmeal may also be used if preferred.

TERES HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MATT,

The Enemy of the Oyster.

The proprietors of oyster bed] last season found tbe starfish family very destructive to their interests. That healthy and hungry family devour the coming oyster by the hundred thousand. The little creature is wonderful manifestation of the power of nature to produce beautiful geometric forms in animal structures. It consists of a central disk-and five radiating arms. Its upper surface is hard and covered with small lumps. One of these lumps is always larger than the rest, and is found a little to one side of the center. It is seen in tbe illustration. This is called tbe madreporic tubercla The circulating fluid of tbe starfish passes out through the madreporic tubercle. If you look at the starfish through a magnifying glass you will see upon his back a number of small objects that look something like pitchforks. They consist each of a pair of pincers supported upon a flexible stalk. The stalk sways about and the pincers open and shut. They are of use to the animal.

TOP OF STAB FISH.

But the way the starfish moves is most curious of all. Upon his underside, following the outline of his ray-like arms are rows of tiny membranous tubes. The animal propels by letting his circulating fluid in and out of these tubes. They are, in brief, tube-feet. Each one bears a sucker. By the means of these suckers it is that the fish crawls over a surface. By their means, he can hold himself fast to the side of a or rock by merely attaching tbe tip of one of his rays. With his little sucker feet he "catches on," so to speak.

The starfish can tarn himself over, when thrown upon his back. It is amusing to watch him do this. He twists the tip of (me ray over and catches hold of the ground beneath with his little fingers. Then he folds the ray under till more of the tiny fingers get a firm grasp. The next ray is manipulated in the same manner, and the next. Than the starfish lifts himself, by one grand effort, and "whops" his whole body over.

There are many different. species of the tribe. In some the body fills out solid to the points of the star. Then the £Uh becomes a regular pentagon. Again tbe raylike arms curl up and close all together at the points into a hard, round shelL This form of starfish is called the sea urchin, lie little, rough spines upon the outside lengthen and stand out upon him like porcupine quills.

In yet another member of the family the arms run out long and thin into waving, flexible tendrils. This species is called the brittle starfish. 7*

SKITTLE STARFISH.

This fellow is much more spry than his cousin in tbe first picture. That one, doing his best, can only travel two inches a minute. But tbe long arms of the brittle starfish enable him to clutch the ground with a firm hold and leap forward at the rate of six feet a minute. A long-logged man can walk faster than a short one.

The starfishes make one of tbe most Interesting features of a seabeach. Children delight to wade in- the water and watch their curious swimming and crawling movements. But their beauty is lost on tbe oyster fisherman. He destroys on sight one ho encounters. At least he win! destroys it. But the fact is he does ways do so. The starfiih family hav*&e property of reproducing themsqlvai frees a single part. They grow from tfe t&x as it were. Thus j£ youjtake one a&d pfall aim to pieces, each separate arm will crawl off in a different direction as fpst as the original star fish did whfu be was all together. There ts lift) in every limb. Each xirt begins tojput out new organs around tself, till finally every one of tbe arms that has been polled off becomes anew and perfect starfish. If the animal loses one of its arms the missing member is speedily reproduced by growth. Ihus, when an ignorant fisherman thinks be is killing a starfish by tearing it to pieces he is really increasing tbe tribe. Every separate piece becomes a new individual enemy to the oyster. Tbe only sure plan is to ere mate, scald or smother him. He must be killed all over.

Yankee Windmills. [Hew York Sua.]

Windmills are sold at prices regulated by tbe diameter of the big wheels, and these wheels are usually made of fixed sisss. Tims the smallest sice usually has a wheel 8){ feet in diameter. It will raise in the coarse ot a day 51,000 gallons ef water into a tank 85 feet above tha level of the water source. Such a windmill will coat $160. including a plain tower or derrick to support it. That is About th* right thing for the ordinary farm. Wbere there is plenty of stock to water, and tbe farmer wants to keep a big filkdin the top of hit bouse for the ot the women folks, he may pat in a »that hfc* 12-foot

see. Instead of tbe four picturesque and broad sails that furnish power to tbe old style Holland mills and those that attract tbe eye all over tbe old world, the American mill has a wheel that looks like a circular window shutter, the narrow wooden data of which radiate" from near tbe center. The shaft of the wheel runs across bearings on top of the tower, and beyond that is the big fan which keeps the wheel faced toward the wind. There is one wheel made of iron, a sort of wind turbine, that is popular also. About the queerest use ever made of the old style grain grinding mill is to be seen near Southampton, on Long Island. A summer resident has built a Queen Anne addition to case, and uses tbe combination as a summer residence. Windmills are no longer of any use for anything but pumping, but for that tbey are about perfection. Ohio and Illinois have the 'largest factories for turning out windmills. In addition to the borne market there is a good sale in South, America and elsewhere abroad.

Hot Water in Sunstroke.

If ice or cold water were to be put over the back of the neck and the occiput, it would be one of tbe most fatal things that could be done, as it would drive the blood still more to the cerebrum, which is already too much suffused witb blood. Ice or cold water would be useful on the front or upper bead or over tbe ^temples. But there is a far more potent influence for healing sunstroke and preventing bad after effects, and that Is the pouring of water as hot as can be borne over the occiput and cervix. Use a whols bucketful if necessary, as hot as 115 to 190 deg. Fahrenheit. The neck and shoulders should be bared and drawn forward over another bucket, and the water poured over the whole neck and a short distance over the back head. It is surprising how some of the worst cases are cured almost immediately in this way. For want of this simple method multitudes become insane or die from over heat. It behooves every one during the hot season to avoid stimulating foods and drinks, and am add fruits, lemon ade, cereals, etc.

Diving Depths.

There is no record of the distance from shoe at which divers have gone down in the Atlantic ooean. They can go down to certain depths at any part of tbe ocean. As long ago as 1856, E. P. Harrington, of Westfold, N. Y., went down 170 feet and recovered the iron safe of the steamer Atlantic, sunk in Lake Erie the year before. He was dressed in a common diver's suit, and remained down eleven minutes. A recent French invention enables men to descend over 800 feet.

The Japanese government'are introducing the use of Roman characters into their printed language, instead of the native. It will facilitate popular learning.

The mosquito crop in Florida is said to be smaller than usual this year, owing to the discovery of a St. John hotel keeper, who tried the experiment of throwingoil into ponds knd stagnant bits of water. He found that it prevented the insects from hatching, and his plan is coming into general use in the state.

Whit* Summer Toilets.

White apparently was never so modi worn as it is this summer. It is more universally becoming also than black. At the great ball at Long Branch recently twothirds of tbe costumes of ladtes, young and old, were white, or of the very light shades. For the dancing dresses, cream white, with lace, was the favorite. Some of tbe very handsomest toilets were cream white surah or satin completely covered with lace. Others were very pale pink or blue covered with laoa. There were not many really bright colored dresses. Tbey were, apparently left for the winter evening party dress. Others were soft mull trimmed with lace and embroidery, and there were some costumes of very fine turn's veiling. Some of the married ladies displayed rich cream satin dresses, with flowered fronts. Dresses were cat low and square in the neck in front, or V-shap^d before and behind. Lace sleeves were very popular. Biack dresses, even upon the older ladies, were so rare that when now and then one appeared It looked out of placet It was hard and heavy in tbe midst of tha cool, soft whits toffees.

Fashionable ladies have now from two to balf-a-doaen white and cream-whits drams ong their summer and seaside outfits. Tbey are made of Victoria lawn, nan's veiling, surah and China silk, satin, mull, etc., and a wenum. dnlees she weighs 800, rarely looks so mil

It ts the time of year wben dry goods man are selling their old stock of shoes and muslin underwear. Tbe shoes are shop-worn, and many of tbem are sold at a bargain.

The same is true, witb a different cau ^e, of muslin and linen underwear. In this stock de&lors are clearing off their shelves and counters to make room for coming fall and winter heavier knit goods. Randymade muslin drawers, chemises, corset covers, etc., be had so cheap this time of year that one wonders bow much the seamstress got for making them. It is melancholy to think of that. Very respectable white lawn suits also are to be bought fear a fifing.

Still, as always, the better class, of whits goods cannot be got for less than they are worth. When it comes to buying something really handsome and fine, that is never cheap.

Many ladies prefer to make their own lingerie at home. Tbey can thus get a finer quality of material, better workmanship and patterns to suit their fancy. For theso here area couple of neat night robe designs.

Princess Beatrloe'* Finest Gown. One of the most remarkable dresses in Princess Beatrice's trousseau is a royal tartan velvet woven in broad stripes of rich dark blue and green, with crimson, gold, blue and green silk stripes crossing it. From tbe very nature of the material it must bo simply made in order to show off its beauty, a^d consequently tbe skirt is plain and long, with a demi-train, the tiniest little plaiting of sap green satin only just showing underneath. At the sides there are small openings from waist to hem, showing flat folds of sap green satin, and edged with a very beautiful kind of fringe combining all the colors ot the tartan mixed with gold thread, and a similar but wider fringo'finishes the side and center breadths of the dress, each strand of silk carrying on the color of the stripe to which It is affixed. The silk strands are diversified with string! of small gold thread and silk balls, and tbe effect is unique. The drapery is madq up at the back into something resembling shells, which look very handsome, indeed. Tbe pointed corsage is perfectly plain, save for a small sap green plastron in front feaching about hall-way to tbe throat, over which is arranged a dainty fichu of soft, white silk muslin without a morsel of lace or embroidery of any kind. The sleeves ccma just below tho elbow, and are relieved at the edge with a loose fold and neat knot of sap green satin and a puff of tbe aamt soft muslin as the fichu.

Information About Bustles. The increasing dimensions of tbe tournure give assurance- that tbe time is approaching when hoops will form part and parcel of tbe regular toilet The present todrnure requires the careful consideration^ of tbe wearer to escape caricature. It is not (infrequently seen on the streets worn over a dross too delicate to hide its contour and bhape tbe drapery is insufficient it has a live, "wobbling" effect, as graphically described by a looker-Oil, particularly where the arms were too slender and the shoulders too narrow for proportion. Pads filled with hair are tbe most trust worthy, ii lightly filled, in order that they may occasionally be palled loose wbere tbe hair may become matted nor most thay be too long, nor encroach upon the sides. Flonnoes may be added to the edge to preserve the contour of tbe back of the skirts. Other materials are hair clotb, pique, tarnpsco, bed ticking or whatever material will held starch. Ventures are cautiously made by some manufacturers witb steel, wire and cord trestle works to secure some unfailing foundation for the weight to be carried. Hair-cloth is light, clean and lasting, and Is easily manufactured into a tournure at ue. Tbe crescent shape ts tbe most popular, made of rolls across the back from nine to twelve inches deep at the middle of the back or longer if preferred. Tournures ot ceremony with heavy spring are used only wben tbe wearer is not required to lean bade comfortably in a chair. A decided improvement on the French panier skirt tonmure is so arranged that it is secured to tbe corset by means of tbe tapes, buttons or
