To Keep Cisterns from Freezing

The Bethlehem, Pa, Times says One of our
Saucon farmers who frequently visits our bor-

York paper offering ''for the small sum of S."
a recipe to prevent wells and csterns from

man had some difficulty with his cistern pnmp
last winter, he considered this a low price for
such valuable information.
He therefore sent to the address given the $5
required for imparting the necessary informa-
ton. This morning he received the reply, as
follows:
