steam. AL he pipes are fitted with
valve and pressure gauges.
Another pipe at the bottom Of the
box serves as an outlet. At first this
pipe is closed, as is also the steam pipe
from above, and carbonic acid is forced
into one end of the box, while ethylene
gas is forced into the other under equal
pressure and III equal volumes. A few
minutes later the steam valve above is
opened and the steam forced in under
the same pressure. As the gases unite
the pressure falls, so that the supply Of
each must be kept constant. At the end
of half AN hour the supply of gas il shut
of, the outlet pipe is opened, and one of
the chambers is found to be filled with
sirup containing % per cent Of sugar
The strip is drawn off for refining,
and as soon as the apparatus is cool it
is ready for a fresh charge. The ethy-
lene gas can be obtained by roasting

Work Up q Reputation.

It should be the aim of every farmer
who makes a speciality of poultry prod.
ucts to work up good reputation, for
such is invaluable. For instance, sup
pose person wishes to acquire name
for producing strictly fresh eggs. Let
him be sure his product is beyond re-
proach, and then stamp each egg with
the name of the farm and guarantee
as to quality. In short time dealers
and consumers will learn to associate
the stamp with the highest excellence,
and prices materially above regular
market rates will easily be obtained.
1t pays to get individuality and sep
arate ones self from the rank and file,
in any business, and poultry-keeping
is no exception. "There is plenty of
room at the top" and it is ut the top
where the profit is found. Id. Summer

How Pigs Are Eoundered.

Ii is quite easy to overfeed, and, as
it is termed, to founder pigs. All there
is to do is to give them all the food
they will eat, as they are so greedy as
to eat more than they can digest. Then
tEey become stunted and do not grow,
and being sick and weak, they soon
become prey to lice and other vermin.
The remedy when this mistake has
been made is to stop the feeding and
give only a little for several days until
they recover u proper tone of the stom.
ach. Pigs should never get more than
half as much TODD as they will eat un-
til they are put up for fattening. They
should also get little salt in every
feed; about one teaspoonful. level. is
enough for large pig. When pigs are
feeding on oak mast they should have
one feed day of milk slop with a lit
tie bran or meal in it. Two quarts for
hundred-pound pig are quite enough
under these circumstances.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1894-03-24

The New Highlander is really no less
generous than the westerner; he i.
merely less lavish. For generations
the New England farmer has cultivated
economy until 1t has become fine art.
He has pared off his expenditures to SO
sharp an edge that one can not touch
them without being cut He has been
as saving as the Scotchman and for the
same reason, cruel climate and a mig.
gardly soil would starve him else.
