THE FITZGERALD LEADER, FRIDAY APRIP 5, 1912 Greater Farm Efficiency The watchword of the present seems to be conservation. This appar ently may be applied to all lines of work. Not only is this true in the commercial woerld, but it will hold true in rural pursuits. The farmer is exerting every effort in obtaining more efficiency from his activities aud to do this he is gathering about him every kind of modern machine or con venience that is obtainable. Concrete on the farm is becoming an important factor and with the ad vent of this new medium of construc tion, feeding floors, troughs, racks, fence posts, silos, farm buildings and many useful necessities are being add ed to the farm equipment. Many of these useful things may be construct ed by the farmer himself or his regu lar help. All that is necessary is a working knowledge of ' concrete and its reinforcements. In the construc tion of large buildings a knowledge of the reinforcement of beams and gird ers is irequired and such construction should be submitted to an architect or a bridge engineer who is 2cquaint ed with these problems. Materials used in the construction of concrete work are usually propor tioned 1-2-4 or 1-21%-5, 1-2-6, 1-4-8, de pending upon their character. That is, 1 part cement, 2% parts sand and 5 TABLE I.

The mixture selected will depend upon the nature of the work in which it is used. Table No. I. shows the materials necessary for one cubic yvard of com crete. In order to determine the amount of cement necessary for any amount of concrete, estimate the number. of cubic yards and multiply that number by the figure 1n the table opposite, “Bbls. cement per cubic yard of con crete,” and under ‘‘mixture to be used.”” The amount of sand and of stone is determined in the same way. Batch miving, as indicated by the name, is an intermittent process and is the ocne most used in silo construc tion. Under certain conditions tie continuous mixing process may be em ployed. Continuous mixing is done by machinery, the materials * being fed into the machine without interruption during the mixing process, which may continue for four or five hours. Batch mixing may be done by machinery If it seems more desirable. Simple me chanical mixers have been very suc cessfully constructed from an ordi nary kerosene barrel. Water should be added until a slop py mixture is obtained. . This will per mit the material to be readily poured. The concrete should be prepared upon a water-tight mixing platform, usually about 10x12 feet. In placing the ma terials upen this platform, some meth od should be used to get the proper proportions; that is, if a 1-2-4 mixture is used, some simple measure for the materials should be employed where by this may be easily determined. Weighing is accurate, but somewhat / ol @/f Measuring Box Used in Mixing Con crete. slow. Using a wheelbarrow of known capacity, or counting the shovelfuls is the most common practice and is con sidered a fairly accurate method. The bottomless box shown in the figure is the best means for this determination. The sand and gravel should be clean. The following test may be used to determine if the sand is clean: Fill a glass fruit jar one-quarter full of the sand and add clean water until the jar is three-quarters full. Shake well, and Concrete a Profit Maker By PROF. C. A. OCOCK, Wisconsin College of Agriculture {f a layer of mud or clay settles cver the sand, do not use it. Gravel or stone should be free from sticks, leaves or any foreign sub stance which-would in any way de stroy the action of the cement upon the sand and gravel. If clay is pres ent, always wash it cut by pouring wa ter over the sand or gravel which is tp be spread over an Inclined screen. Spread the cement upon the sand and gravel if they are in combination g 2 the water-tight platform and mix wntil the whole mass is of uniform scler., Then add water unless cesecned gravel or crushed stone is »#irg used, in whickh case’ place the eement upon the sand, mixing until a uniform color; add gravel“or crushed stone and mix thoroughly, and then add enough water to produce the proper consistency, Hoes or shovels can be used to mix the concrete, but the latter are moré often employed. Concrate shonld be mixed in small guantities, only such amounts being prepared sz will be used up,K immedi ately. Concrete hardens so rapidly that lumps often begin to form throughout the whole mass before it can be used. Under these conditions the whole amount should be discard ed. Concrete ought not to stand more than 25 or 20 minutes after the ce- ment is first wet, without Dbeing placed. In placing concrete, the most impor tant thing to be observed is the man ner of handling. The materials must not be separated when poured into the forms. Pouring from a considerable height should not be practiced, as the AR ‘?.‘-mfi».;h?:1:':1:1:55:::1;?:‘.3:- S Lo b R getA g b RO | Ly e .*_'3;s?{:’-:3;5*2 Be L 7O SR S S S S e S e e RRN ARSI «4:.-(3»'-;\{ R RET AR RSN RE XSR Rl R 25 Sae LR SR ’& a 4 s\,’%&~ R SO R GBS T R BB SN N e SRR i SAL MRS S OR R B A e SR ST W e RT R R T ’¥%Q S it TR &U\,‘”\ S A o SRRy A .?:“:‘ée iR et eRI AR Sisgrd zg‘%,} f ARk R R SR R AN B Slt SRR e e ,3~“v},‘;~<»*<}%‘>‘3°\{ SRR A S :}“?‘"‘s_’%‘%«x"-?}Z"""}R"i»:-:‘&.\:’({?{i‘:fi- RERS 35 28 e R 8 PSSR R S (DS 06, 1 i e R b R N A e-‘#ffi}x“* Y O R SEalnTtaawen o g Bled Re @ e R RN R T TSR A Rosi R e g S e ‘)’W”@?fi\:(f SRR A-*&:\ TR s it N WRASN PR s e2O SRERRIOT N SRR S e B Silo Made of Cocncrete. beavier parts will be separated from the lighter and forced to the bottom of the mass. Good concrete is only obtained when the stones and gravel remain in contact with the mortar. 1t is not hard to make the forms for concrete tanks. In fact most any one can invent a form of his own. The amount of stock to be watered at the tank must be taken into considera tion when the size is planned. If a rectangular tank is to be used, the proper dimensions can be determined by consulting Table [I. 1t often happens that around a stock tank there is a mud hole. This can be easily avoided by making a cement platform around the tank extending out six feet on all sides. In making the forms for the tank, the outside measurements of the in side forms should be one inch greater in boih directions than the outside dimensions of the tank. This is neces sary to avoid the possibility of any part of the tank being supported by the floor proper. The outer edge of the floor should be omne inch lower than the edge s.rrounding the space to be-occupied by the tank. This pro vides drainage for water that is spilled to be occupied by the tank. The bill of_materials shown above is for'a tank ten feet long and six feet wide. The price of such a tank can be easily computed by a local dealer. k. ) Student’s Savings Bank Open for Deposits Each School D sy 8:15 to 8:30 a. m., 3:15 to 3:30 p. m.
