COST OF CONCRETE FEED FLOOR
CUSTER COUNTY MAN GETS A
GOOD ONE FOR $16.
George Bishop Has the Thing All
Figured Out For Every Item
of Expense.
By GEORGE BISHOP.
So many of us farmers back up at
the mention of anything to be built
of concrete because we feel the ex-
pense to be greater than we can af
ford. If you have a sand or gravel
pit within five or six miles, a floor
may be built with a small outlay of
money. We visited a farmer near
Thomas, Custer county, a short time
ago who was using a feed floor built o
material which cost him nothing but
the hauling; and he told me the cost
of the cement and the labor amounted
to about sixteen dollars.
For those living near any of the
trunk line railroads running across
the state it would be well to see what
the finely ground chats used by the
sidewalk builders would cost laid
down at your station. Almost any
contractor in any town can tell you.
We have used two cars of this ma
terial on our own farm and know that
you can get nothing which will work
better. Ours cost fifteen cents a ton
f. o. b. Joplin, Mo., and seven cents
a hundred freight. You have to have
an eighty thousand car to get the
seven cent rate. For smaller cars they
charge eleven cents. There may be
better rates now. This was shipped
to Rocky, Washita county. At this
rate the car, freight and all, cost
sixty-two dollars laid down at our sta-
tion. A car of this capacity holds
about thirty yards, figuring it
weigh the same as sand.
Thirty cubic yards figures to cover
a space of twenty-four hundred and
thirty square feet, four inches deep.
This further figures to make four
twenty by thirty feed floors, with
thirty square feet to spare. But since
it is better to have a trench six or
eight inches deep, to be filled in and
built in with the feed floor on the
outer edge, for strength and to keep
the rats out, we will play safe and
say an eightly thousand car will make
three twenty by thirty feed floors. If
you get the finely ground chats, you
will need no sand.
Just put in our cement in a propor-
tion of one to seven and mix it thor
oughly. Build a layer three to three
and a half feet wide at a time. And
for each layer after you have troweled
it down, throw on some dry cement
and with aid of sufficient water
trowel it into the surface. We have
a feed room in our barn finished in
this way and it has been in use five
years and hasn't a blemish in it. A
feed floor should have a slope of six
inches for each ten feet, and if we
had ours to build over, we would
slope it toward the east. Some have
them built out in the open, but we
have ours protected on two sides, the
north and west.

The splendid and gorgeous fabrics
brought out this season can only be
worn to best advantage when they
are made up into ample draperies that
fall about and enshroud the figure.
They have proven an inspiration to
designers. Fabrics have for years
Lndeed outdistanced styles. When we
look at these marvels from the loom
we realire that they are fit for god-
desses to wear.
Perhaps, for this very reason, cloaks
are long but full. Materials are so
supple that they incline to fall to the
figure and to aid them they are provid-
ed with little weights where needed.
A superb coat of satin and a gold
brocaded fabric is shown here. It is
worn with muff and hat of chinchilla
and an ostrich neck ruff.
The dress under the coat is of satin
and chiffon. It appears to be some-
thing between a pannier and redin-
gote style. Again the lightness and
suppleness of the fabrics make pos
sible the mixed design. It is not so
beautiful as the coat but has many
interesting features, like the queei
shaped sleeves and pointed collar and
the long lines of button ornaments.

HAVE WIDE CHOICE IN COATS NEW VOGUE IN CANDLESTICKS
Not for Many Years Has There Been
Such a Large and Excellent Variety
from Which to Select.
Certain short draped coats of sup-
ple fur rounding away in the front are
launched by extremists, who are push-
ing the pegtop silhouette, but they are
by no means graceful even for the
slender woman, and are not likely to
be taken seriously by the women in
this country.
Some Russian coats of half length
or longer button up the left front,
close on the left shoulder, and have
high, close collars finished at the top
by a narrow band of contrasting fur.
A model of this type usually is loosely
belted or girdled across the back, if
not all around, and the model, while
good-looking if well worn, is becoming
only to the exceptional woman.
Many of the new fur coats are made
without collars for greater convenience
in the wearing of separate neck furs
Linings are often of the handsome
brocades, and in some of the most
luxurious garments these linings are
so rich in themselves that they add
greatly to the cost of the coat.

Most appropriate for this season of
the year, becoming dark colors have
precedence in millinery. In the ve-
lours. browns and similar fabrics
which are so much nsed, the darker
colors are always most beautiful.
These are frequently accentuated and
relieved from too extreme somberness
by a touch of white. The hat in the
drawing has a charmingly rolled brim
of unexaggerated lines, but with the
modish extension of brim of the eide.
This hat is of black velvet, with high
square crown, against which a beau-
tiful breast and wings of white stands
out in bold relief. Two supplementary
wings increase the length of the sides.
Novel Cord Bag.
A cord bag can be made quickly at
small expense. Make it so as to eas-
ily hold an ordinary ball of twine.
Gather at the bottom and sew around
a brass ring, so that cord can pass
through Put a drawstring in top of
bag and arrange a loop to hang the
bag up by. Trim top with bow of
ribbon.—Harper's Raiar.
Those of Glass or Delicate Chlnaware
Have Replaced the More Elaborate
Silver Ones.
The newest candlesticks are of iri
descent glass, and their effect is
charmingly festive, though they are
not so dignified as the handsome, well-
eared-for silver ones of tradition
Sometimes these glass candlesticks
have shades of deeper tinted glass
also. Dresden candlesticks that have
long been treasured for their dainty
beauty alone are also being brought
out into action by some smart hos
tesses. Now that we no longer crowd
our tables with flowers these precious
things have a chance of being seen to
advantage. They are most effective
when no large tablecloth, but only
lace and linen mats are used on a
beautifully polished table. W'hite
candles, unshaded or with white or
pale pink shades, should be used with
them.
The fortunate chatelaine who pos
sesses Canton china is now searching
for candlesticks of the same ware
and shades painted in water color
with designs to match the china.
The prospective bride. Instead of
having set after set of silver candle-
sticks, will be delighted to receive
carved ivory ones instead. This hint,
of course, is only for wealthy friends,
for ivory candlesticks are not cheap
Shades should be made for them of
thin Oriental silk.
To Properly Apply Powder.
To produce the best effect in the
use of powder for the face it is nec-
essary to first place a foundation of
some good cream. Apply it gently,
massaging it into the skin, rub off
the remaining portions with a soft
linen cloth and then dust the powder
over the face and neck, taking care
that the spaces beneath the chin and
about the ears are well covered. Next
rub the powder well into the skin
with a soft piece of velvet until it
is evenly blended. With a damp brush
remove all traces of powder from the
brows, lashes or the edge of the
hair.
Ribbon Wreath.
A lovely hair ornament for evening
is made by braiding loosely silk cord
of three different shades the neces-
sary length to crown the head, says a
writer in the Woman's Home Compan-
ion. Make two rosebuds of silk to
matf i the cord, and sew these to one
end of the cord. This ornament is
fastened together by a hook and eye
A pretty color scheme is to have the
cords of pink, green and gold; the
rosebuds of pink-and-gold shaded rib-
bon. with green velvet leaves as a
background for the roses.
Collar Braid.
When the lining next to the col-
lar of your wrap begins to show signs
of wear, get a few inches of wide silk
military braid, matching the color, and
sew it neatly over the worn part. By
pulling a thread at the edge, the
braid will b£ persctly smooth and the
garment will not look patched.—Good
Housekeeping.
