DETAILED PLANS FOR A
GOOD CONCRETE TROUGH
Any Farmer Can Construct Watering Place for Livestock
by Following Instructions Given Below—
By H. S. Chamberlain.
A Rood watering trough is one of |
the necessities on every farm. The
best of wooden troughs are good
for only a comparatively few ye:.rs at
the farthest and the steel 1 roughs,
even though galvanized, will in time
tust through and become worthless.
The ideal trough is one that is al
ways in good shape and one that does
not rot away like wood nor rust away
like steel. Such a farm necessity can
be very readily constructed of con
crete just as many other necessities
and conveniences in the economy of
the farm may be, says a writer in Lh<
Farmers' Review. The main leatun
and
of a concrete watering trough is its
durability, a point that appeals to all
r armers.
Herewith is given a plan for
making a durable and satisfactory
concrete watering trough. The lirst
essential in building such a
water holder for the use of live stocl<
is a suitable.' foundation. An excava
tion of at least three feet in depth
and a little larger in area than the
dimensions of the trough is needed t'
prevent heaving of the structure b>
frost in the winter. This opening is
then filled with cobble stones or grout,
pounded into place by means of a
heavy block of wood. 1'pou tili 1 ;
strong settiiu; the concrete trough is
'o be placed.
The next step in the process is
making the mold for the trough. Only
good stout planks, free from knots
planed on one side and on both
edges, should be used for this pur
pose. The smooth sides of the planks

are placed next to the concrete. The
following plan then should be fol
lowed :
The outside dimensions are: Length,
9 feet; width, 3 feet; height, 2.5 feet.
. The lumber for the form must be
j rut to accord with these measure
5 ments. At the rorners of the mold
and also along the upper edges of the
uppermost planks triangular pieces of
j wood must be placed so as to avoid
I any sharp corners when the trough
lis completed. This provision prevents
! the chipping of the corners, so com
i mon to sharp angular cement work.
! When the mold is in place, tho sides
should be reinforced by two or three
pieces of 2x1 inch uprights at erpii
distant intervals. Tie se upright.
should then be t-lrongly braced to pre
vent bulging out of the concrete while
it is being tamped into compactness
A brace at each end of the form will
be also necessary. This form is
erected directly over the cobble stone
er grout foundation. When the mob'
is in position the concrete mixture
consisting of one part cement, two
parts clean sand and four parts fine
gravel is shoveled in and tamped
down well in layers of at least six
inches in thickness until the mold
is half full. At t h i.- point in the
operation the inside foim must be
placed for providing the water holding
space.
This inside form is also made of
lumber planed on one side and on
hot Ii edges with the smooth side out.
The part of the mold should be made
strong so as to resist inward pres
sure when the walls of the trough are
being shaped. The core mold should
have the following top dimensions:
Length, S feet; width. 2 feet; vertical
depth. 1.2."> feet or 15 inches. Bottom
measurements: Length, 7 feet; width.
12 inches. Thus it is seen that the
mold has dimensions providing l'or a
G-ineh interior slope from the top of
the trough to the bottom. These slop
ing walls are to guard against rup
ture in case water should freeze in
the holder during cold weather.
This interior mold must be lixeil
carefully in such a position that its
upper edges will be just six inches
from the top edges of the outside
form. Cross pieces are nailed across
the entire width, of tho form to hohl
the inner form in position. The ce
ment concrete may now he filled i:it .

molds and carefully tamped into
compact, mass. The top of the con
crete wall may be finished off with
layer 1 inch thick from a mixture
of 1 part, cement arid 1 part sand and
smoothed off with a trowel. This will
give a harder coating to the up]
surface of the wall. Tin

last for centuries, provided the work
has been done well.
The measurements of the trough : -
completed will be on the outside 'J.x.'ix
2Si feet, and on the inside at the top
xli feet, and at the bottom 7x1 feet,
with a vertical depth of 1 ■"> inches,
the capacity nearly GO gallons.
A convenient arrangement, for
emptying the water out of the trough
can easily be placed in position while
building the water receptacle. Se
cure- a three-foot section of b ad pipe
having a bore of one inch and bend
I so that there will be an angle of a
little more than 90 degrees between
the two parts, one part being about
two feet long. In constructing the
base this pipe is embedded in the !
concrete at a convenient place so that
the long end of the same projects
about six inches beyond the walls of
the trough. Allow the shorter end to
project an inch above t'ne bottom of i
the trough. Have a care that the
lower end of the pipe is several j
inches lower than the bend oi the ;
pipe so as to insure the perfect
drainage of both pipe and trough. !
The concrete hardening around the '
pipe will make the union of the two j
water tight. After the concrete has j
set the projecting end of the pipe in
the trough may be cut off near the ;
bottom surface of the trough and
then the bore may be slightly en- j
Iarged by means of a wooden cone. '
The edges of the pipe should be flat
tened down with a hammer to let the
water flow out more readily. A wood- |
en plug is inserted in the open end
of the pipe in the bottom of the wa- .
ter holder to retain the water. The j
water from this outlet should be led >
away through a special drain tile. This
precaution is imperative it' the trough
is to be properly cared for.
The dimensions of the herein de
scribed trough may be cut down or
added to, to suit the wishes and de
mands of the farmer thinking of con
structing this farm necessity.

Foreign Crop Conditions. —The baek
wardness of spring plowing and sow
ing is the dominant and almost uni
versai characteristic of current reports
concerning the growing crops in Eu
rope. The long and rather severe win
ter continued well into March. The ,
first half of the month was character
ized by snowfalls in all but the most ;
southern parts of the continent, and
it was not until practically the middle
of the month that the snow cover dis
appeared. The success wit li which the ;
autumn-sown crops survived the win- j
ter is still a matter of speculation and
of widely divergent views. It seems ;
reasonably clear that in the western
countries the crops wintered unusually
well. There has been, it is true, con
siderable fear that the alternation of
!i\'st and thaw in France two months i
ago will necessitate more or less re- ;
sowing, but even there losses have j
been by no means abnormal, while in .
C.eat Britain the outlook for wheat is j
< xceptionally bright. In cintrai Iva
:vpe the prospects of the Vinter crops !
are not satisfactory. Severe weather :
and the heavy snowfall of March not i
only delayed spl ine; plowing and seed- I
ing, but affected adversely th" autumn- ;
sown crops.
Spinach Easy to Cultivate.—Spin
i'.rh is a first-rate fall or spring crop,
i n'y suitable as a crnl weather vege
table. It is very easy to cultivate,
but if you would succeed you must
have a lino seed bed an i rich soil.

it is a great deal ?nore work to gather
a load where the crop is small. Ham
part growth is needed in order to
have the best produce. Two hundred
barrels an acre is an ordinary crop.
hoeing is enough. Sow in rows
about one foot apart about August 1
and continue as the ground is vacant
until the middle of September.

PAINT EVÊRY YEAR.
No One Wants to Do It, But Some
Paint Will Wear No Longer.
When you have a job of painting
done you don't expect to have it done
over again very soon. But to make
a lastiTig job, several things must be
taken into consideration—the proper
time to paint—the condition of the sur
face—the kind of materials to use, etc.
All these matters are fully covered in
the specifications which can be had free
by writing National Lead Company,
1902 Trinity Building, New York,
and asking for ilouseowner's Paint
ing Outfit No. 49. The outfit al:-:o in
cludes a hook of color schemes for
l-«Jtli interior and exterior painting,
and a simple instrument for detecting
adulteration in the paint materials.
The outfit will solve many painting
problems for every houseowner.
