The time to be thrifty
is before you are hard up,
and the time to protect
yourself from damage
suits is before your auto
mobile injures or kills
someone.
* The question, is not—
Can I afford to carry auto
mobile liability insurance?
But—Can I afford to drive
an automobile without
carrying adequate protec
tion in that line?
Let us tell you bow little
it will cost to have this
protection. DO IT NOW.

Greyhound Is Speed Demon
of Anim al Kingdom
'Through a series of recently com
pleted tests, the speediest animals are
reported to have been determined as
follows: the greyhound, race horse,
prong-homed antelope, hare, Texas
jackrabbit, common fox, coyote, fox
hound and gray wolf. The records
were made by noting the number of
bounds made by each animal in a
given space of time, by means of a
stop watch, and then measuring the
length of the leap. The greyhound, it
was ascertained, can travel a short
distance at 35 miles an hour, about
four miles an hour faster than the
hare. None of those studied, however,
can keep up their speed for any con'
siderable distance, although the fox
and wolf can beat either the grey
hound or race horse in this respect.

garages with great saving of room and

A Novel Dairy Farm
Milking and feeding go together,
and therefore provision should be
made to milk and feed at the same
time. A novel dairy barn, which is
arranged to permit this, is shown in
the drawing.
The hay manger is located above
the heads of the cows so that they
have to reach up a. trifle to pull the
hay out; the bottom has a row of */2-
in. iron bars to allow this.
A hay
manger of this type has the advan
tage of containing enough hay to last
the cows for a number of days. The
trap door of the hay manger hangs
outward on chains and can be pushed
back into vertical position whenever
necessary, as in cold orS. stormy
weather.
The grain manger is of the onlinary
tyjie, except that it is much larger and
also lower. Both mangers can be
filled from the outside, fr^m a wagon
or truck, the surplus hay being tempo
rarily stored on the roof, ready to be
raked into the manger when needed.
Another interesting feature of this
dairy barn is the chain cow tie. which
is an improvement on the stanchions
usually used, as the cows have greater
freedom to move their heads around,
the bars permitting the chain to be
moved up and down, but preventing «
the cows from moving backward.
