THE EMBDEN GEESE.

This Handsome Variety Is Fairly Prolific
and Natures Early-A breeding Pen.
There are only three varieties Of geese
which can be called economical. 1t is
true we have several varieties, but the
majority are SO inferior to the three
leading Embden, Toulouse and
Italian--that they cannot be called prof
liable breeds, says a breeder in The
Kennel, Farm and Poultry Yard.
The Emblem goose is by far the most
beautiful of the species. 1t is a very
large variety, pure white in color, and
very handsome. In large flock on the
grass or stubbles they look extremely
we'll The Emblem gander should have
long, swanlike neck; long, straight
head; deep orange bill and light blue
eyes. His breast should be full and
broad, without any keel; shoulders very
broad, back long and straight, paunch
deep and broad, and legs very strong
The Embdens are fairly prolific They
lay about 10 eggs each if fairly fed,
and make good sitters and mothers
They are indeed most satisfactory i'll the

At Leeds, England, there is an electric
clock which has been continually ticking
off the time since 1910. 1t is IL queer
looking theological instrument, without
either springs or weights and only having
three wheels. 1t was made by James
Smith, m optician and relative OF the
present owner, Mr.. Edward Smith, jew
elcr. Mr.. Smith says that the motive pow
er of this queer clock is natural electric
ity," neither cell nor battery being used.
1t is kept going by brass cylinder, con
timing ~ miles of fine coiled copper
wire, the whole being attached to the
lower end of the pendulum, which moves
back and forth over a magnetized steel
bar. This is probably the only clock in
the world which is driven by the pendu-
lum, instead of vice versa. -St. Louis Re-

ANTHRACITE COAL
II Was Practically Unknown as Fuel I'm
I'll the Year 1920.

The anthracite coal trade really had no
existence worthy of the name until as late
as 1920. Its actual beginning, however,
was in 1907, when one Abigail Smith ran
an ark loaded with coal to Columbia
from Wilkosbarrc, and he continued TO
run several arks yearly until 1926. In
1871 and 1912 some of this coal found
its way to New York by way of Havre de
Giace.
Until 1920 the entire shipment from the
Wyoming valley, the largest anthracite
basin in the world, in any year never cx-
oecdcd 900 tons. Then there was n great
jump, and the trade grew as by magic I'M
til now; In 1920, $500 tons; in 1850,
2,01l,Sl7; in 1870, 1914, 666; in 1850,
1l,410,270; in $780, 1867, 694. In its
present magnificent proportions the min
ing of anthracite requires the services of
sc, 600 mon and boys, and the number is
increasing every year.
Ono more fact in this romance of fact.
That the man who discovered anthracite
coal was a public benefactor goes without
saying, but who was he? In 1891, l re-
member, the Pennsylvania legislature
tried to appropriate 81, 600 to build mon
umcnt to Philip Ginter of Carbon county
as the discovcrcr His right to the title
and honor being disputed, IA sage lcgisla-
tor said: We ought to have n discovcrer
of coal and might as well have him. SO
whether it was Ginter or not makes no
difference. We arc willing to concedo his
claim"

The evaporation of fruit is one of the
many industries that have grown so enOr-
mously in the past few years. Having
its beginning on the Delaware peninsu-
Ia, it has gradually extended over the
large fruit belt between the Atlantic
and the Pacific. Large ovaporators must
be located where an abundance of fruit
can be secured at a reasonable price.
Unless this is done the business cannot
be made successful. But large evapora-
tors mean acquired business skill in this
particular pursuit The party in charge
must understand it thoroughly, keep
posted in every detail and be a close OBJ
server of all markets. A correspondent
of The Country Gentleman says:
Were to instruct party just going
into business, l would say buy the best
machinery attainable, If a large facto-
ny, use power machinery. 1t saves time,
help and prevents one Of the many eX-
pensive outlets that arise in this partic-
ular business. From 3 to pounds of
evaporated fruit can be made from so
pounds of choice apples Raspberries
will make about 10 pounds per bushel.
The question, Shall put up an evapo-
rator then? should be well weighed and
calculated. Several important and nee
essary points must be considered. Is the
locality suitable? Can fruit be purchas-
ed at a price to make it profitable? Can
help be readily secured? With these
questions answered in the affirmative,
/ it is safe to proceed, as you will always
be sure of a market for evaporated fruits.

Exchanging Straw For Manure.

1t is hard to get it out of the heads
of some farmers that straw has better
uses than to be rOtted down merely for
its manurial value. They use it liberal
ly as bedding, so as to save more of the
liquid excrement which will otherwise
be wasted. But after all has been used
in this way that is possible those who
grow grain have large stacks that they
do not know what to do with. They can
safely sell it, if for every load taken
away they buy load of manure. The
manure may cost S a load, while the
Straw ought to sell for 50 to IS or $40,
according to size of load and quality of
the straw. Yet in every case the load Of
manure has more of plant food than has
the more bulky straw. 1t is not uncom.
mon for farmers in some places to fur
nish straw for bedding to those keep
fng horses OF COWS in neighboring vii
lagos 1t is very good plan where the
distance for hauling both ways is not
too great. There are always some horses
kept in village hotels, and it is worth
while for farmers to make arrangements
for exchanging straw for their bedding
for the manure pile that they will pro-
duce, according to American Cultivator.

The bordeaux mixture is recon-
mended by L. r. Jones Of the Vermont
station for both the early and the late
blight Several fungicides were tested,
but the bordeaux mixture give best re-
suits. Among the most interesting re-
suits were gains where soap was added
to the fungicide. In the authors opin-
ion, the difference may be attributed
largely to the effect of the soap upon the
flea beetles rather than to its increased
tungicidal action. Numerous leaves
We're taken at random and carefully
counted, and those to which the soap
had been applied showed a great re-
duction in the number of punctures by
this insect.
The time and rate of growth of po-
tato tubers, and hence the effect of the
premature death of potato tops upon the
yield, was investigated, and it was
shown that the yield of marketable tu-
bers increased with the different dates
of digging until Oct. /. The rows used
in this test had been thoroughly sprayed
with bordeaux mixture, and the plants
remained green until the end Of Sep
TENDER. Harvestings were made, begin
ming Aug. 2 and continued every ten
days until Sept %. The yield Aug.
was at the rate of 5S bushels per acre,
the tubers averaging 1.6 ounces. The
yield at the last digging, Sept. %, was
$40 bushels per acre, the tubers averag
ing 81 ounces, showing the Importance
of preventing the early destruction Of

not to my mind any recommendation.
l prefer goose that Will lay Il good sit
ting-say from - to > eggs-and then
sit down and hatch them and bring off
her flock to the folds as soon as they

Geese Of this class give very little trou-
Bile compared with birds brought up by
hens which lay about the farmyard all
summer.
The Embdons are an early maturing
variety and as such have been largely
recommended as harvest geese. Thor
flesh is excellent and without any coarse
ness They are frequently crossed with
Toulouse, which produces excellent re-
suits. This cross makes very large birds
of light gray color. The ganders grow
particularly large The cross between
an Emblem goose and a Chinese gander
is very highly spoken Of Large fiocks
of moderate sized white birds are OBJ
tanned in this way.

only two geese with gandcr. The gan
der as before stated, should be as long
in the neck and typical Of the breed as
possible I would advise the first foul
eggs laid by each goose to be put under
hens, and the geese will be able fol
about 13 eggs each. They should have
nests provided i'll shed, where they
should be put to lay from the first

md which admits the gate to swing
either way in opening, the device being
at the same time simple and easily
operated by the hand.
In order to effect these results an iron
pin "a from one to two inches in length
and three-quarters of an inch in di-
ameter is fixed firmly in the outer stile
Of the gate The rest OBJ and the slotted
latch co. are so placed with reference to
this pin that as the gate is closed from
either side the pin passes between the
two pieces, rising ightly-say an eighth
of an inch-on the rest b. and pressing
up the latch (C) until it comes under the
slot (a( when the latch returns to its
place and the gate is securely fastened.
The latch tC) is held in its proper posi-
ton by means of the rod (F) which passes
through the guide o. To facilitate the
easy opening of the gate the rod CIV rises
to the top of the level Of the gate and
is bent in the form Of a loop (c) large
enough to admit the hand. Over this
loop and concentric to it is placed the
stationary handle (d). BY grasping the
two loops at once in the hand the latch
rod (F) is easily drawn up and the pin re-
lcised from the latch. The latch returns
to its place by its own weight or if that
is not sufficient helical spring may be
added at e. Beyond the fact that the
latch serves the purpose of a rest for the
gate it is especially desirable in that it
will lock automatically and thereby
save much valuable time Of the pedes-
