We hear that S. d. Dewolf, who lives
down in Turkey Hollow, had his list dou-
bled by our listers this spring. Mr.. De-
wolf is well-to-do farmer and, besides
farm well stocked, has outstanding claims
on some old horses and other personal
property. Owing to the stringency of the
money market and the general depression
in business at that time, Mr.. Dewolf, in
filling out his inventory according to law,
put too low a value on these securities. At
least, it appears that the listers thought
so; hence, the doubling. As the grand
list of Barnard is only about 20 800, il will
help the town little If it doesn't Mr.. De-
wolf.

Whenever mortar is used during the cold
weather, there is always more or less fear OF
injury from frost, and masons are accus-
toned to use salt water in mixing the ce-
ment and to cover the green masonry with
straw and boards during. the night. The
engineer Of the Western railway OF France,
Charles Rabut, says the ordinary soda OF
commerce Is even better than salt. The
soda employed is what is known as the an
hydrous carbonate obtained by the Solway
process, which costs less In France than the
hydrated carbonate. This is dissolved In q
kettle In the proportion Of pound OF
soda to "a quarts Of water at a temperature
of about IS degrees Fahrenheit. This solu-
ton is mixed with an equal volume of wa
ter at the temperature Of the air, to give
the water which is used by the masons. A
kettle holding 1913 quarts has been found
sufficient to serve 10 masons.
The mortar made in this way requires
more of the solution than il water alone
were used, about one-quarter more being
considered the proper increase. Mr.. Rabut
reports that with this solution mortar has
been observed to harden at temperature
about degrees below freezing with at
least twice the rate of similar mortar with
out soda at temperature IA degrees above
the freezing point. While the surface hard
ems much more quickly, however, the in
terror remains moist longer, and on this ac
count the soda is Objectionable. Moreover,
it Ia also found to cause white efflorescence
on the surface of the masonry which lasts
for some months.-New York Telegram.
