The exact knowledge of the conlbus-
ton heat of coal gas has enabled Witt
to determine the temperatures and the
theoretic explosive pressures of detonat-
ing mixtures formed with this gas.
The mixtures were taken at degree
Centigrade and Mt the atmospheric
pressure A mixture of one volume of
gas and six volumes of air gave tenn
perature of 2.064 degrees aud pressure
of SO atmospheres. A mixture of one
volume of gas with ten volumes of air
gave temperature of l.. 5l4 degrees and
pressure of g. atmospheres.
Roses and all flowers containing per-
fumed oils may be made to yield their
aromatic qualities by STEPPING the petals
in o. saucer of water, and setting it i'll
the sun. The water should be soft,
or rain-water, and sufficient quantity
allowed for evaporation. In few days
o film will cover the water. This is
the essential oil of the flower every
particle is impregnated with the odor.
It must be taken up carefully and put
in tiny walls, which should remain open
till all the remaining water is evapor-
ated. A few drops of this will perfume
glove-boxes, apparel, ETC., and will last
o long time.
Many, indeed, are the luxuries that
the magician's wand of invention now
brings into the midst of our homes. AS
on instance, to produce sea atmosphere
for the sick room, foreign contem-
porary suggests the use of q solution of
peroxide of hydrogen (ten volumes
strength) containing one per cent. of
ozonic ether, iodine to saturation, and
$50 per cent of sea salt. The solution
placed in steam or hand spray diffuser
can be distributed in the finest spray in
the sick room at the rate of two fluid
ounces in quarter of an hour. It
communicates q pleasant sea odor. and
is probably the best purifier of the air of
the sick room ever used. 1t is power
full disinfectant. the same author writes,
as we'll as deodorizer, acting briskly on
ozonized test solutions and papers. 1t
might be we'll to test the subject in some
ward of one of our hospitals.
Experiments have been made in Eng
land as to the comparative value of good
hay for stock, with the result that it is
estimated that 100 pounds of hay are
equal to 275 pounds of green Indian
corn, 400 pounds of green clover, 449
pounds of rye straw, $50 pounds of wheat
straw, 100 pounds Of oat straw,
1870 pounds of barley straw, 1913

MILFORD NEWS.

Some very cold days were experience
ed in this vicinity last week, yes in
deed, cold enough to make the tough
est old pioneer SILVER. 1t is about time
for old winter to leave US as we know
all about him and don't care for any
more blizzard's.
Now is the time for our farmers to
prepare their seed grain. Care should
be taken in selecting only the very best
grades.
The supervisors of the town of Mil

person having claim against the

1t is true that good many of our
business men are using coal or even
wood shipped from the east for fuel in
their store and offices. and tits also true
that these business men are very glad
to sell their goods to the farmer at fair
profits but if the farmer offers his
goods at prices that would yield to him
small profit, the universal answer he

On the evening of March 4th the
Democratic club of New Ulm will CO.
lebrate by having a banquet and ball
at Turner Hall. 1t was at first pro-
posed to have the affair private and
confined to few, with \ lew invited
friends from neighboring towns, but
as soon as this was announced there
was strong protest. There are good
many who are anxious to be in the pro-
cession just now, and they want to get
into the band wagon too. The old tim
ers, as a general thing, opposed pub.
lie meeting on the ground that it would
seem like OVERRIDING a good thing, after
the great celebration last November,
but as they had no desire to make the
banquet exclusive in the face of an
opposing sentiment, they consented to
change the programme and make it
free-fol.all.
Several speakers will respond to
toasts at tine banquet, the list inducing

Perpendicular Real Estate.

Apropos OF earth, they tell a good
story of Judge Jackson. He went out
to one of the new towns of the Far
West, which is built on a side-hill.
Real estate was booming and real es-
tate spectators Hocked around him.
One of them conducted him to lol
about as desirable for residence az 9
perpendicular wall, and said; "There's
the place for you! Only $1,000! Ain'l
it fine?'
'.Ah, but it's SO steep in topography
and price,
That's just it, said the real estate
man. "You see that lot below it:
Well, the man who owns it will have
to have dirt to fill itup, and he'll give
you $4,000 for the earth graded from
your lot."
The next day another real estate man
said: ''pll show you piece of prop.
erty. There's fortune in it. Look
there!" and he pointed toward the lot
below the side-hill that the other specu'
lator had offered him.
Eyes. but look at that lot above it,
urged Judge jackson.
Chats just it, replied the specu.
lator. 'The man who owns it will
give you $1,000 for place to dunn
the dirt when he grades down his lot, y
The Judge did not buy any perpen
dicular real estate. Cleveland Leader

We cannot agree with our Milford
correspondent that farmers do not find
the sale of cordwood profitable in New
Ulm. The price for dry wood has been
as follows--Hard Maple $500 to $3.50,
Oak $500 to $5.25, Eastwood 1915 to
$500 per cord. With wood at above
prices and Merchandise cheaper than it
has been in 20 years, we do not see
any reasons for farmers to complain.
AS for our merchants buying their wood
east of this place, so far as we can learn
this is done because farmers are not
able to supply the demand.
