A Clock That Runs n yenr.

Peter NJ. Ravenskilde, of Cabrey, H.,
has invented a clock that will run a
year, perhaps longer, without atten-
ton. 1t was started August &c, 1898,
and has not stopped or lost or gained
time since. The clock is run with a
wheel 60 inches in circumference.
From the outer surface of the wheel are
suspended 120 cups, each one-half inch
in diameter and third of an inch deep.
Forty of these cups contain steel balls
three-eighths of an inch in diameter.
Every minute and half, as this wheel
turns by the weight of the balls, one of
the balls falls out of the cup and rolls
down an Inclined plane 20 inches long,
when, by its own weight, it reunites a
broken circuit of electricity and is ele-
waited by little car travelling along an
inclined plane to the top Of the wheel,
where it falls into cup which stands
vertical for short time. After the car
discharges its cargo it yeturns to its
original station by its own weight.
From the time one of these balls is
dropped into a cup until it is again
dropped into another cup it travels
SO inches. Thus the work done by all
the balls is equivalent to one ball tray
cling over mile day, 400 miles in one
year, and in 60 years the distance around
the globe. The electricity used is gem

How a greater trouble overshadows a
lesser was aptly illustrated In one OF the
minor courts the other day. The accused
was big, strong, honest German, greatly
excited and disposed to do more talking
than is permissible under such clrcum-
stances. The court distinctly said that the
big man was charged with disturbing the
peace and asked HIM whether he was guilty
or not guilty.

PURIFY THE HENHCUSE.
The Best Way to Get Rid of All Bad
Odors and Impure Air Is by
DiSinfectfon.

AS the warm weather comes the ten
dency is to throw open the openings
of the poultry department and let in
the fresh air to dispense the impure air
of the buildings which has accumu
lated during the time they have been
kept closed. 1t is all right to let the
pure air in and to rarity the impure air
of the interior of the buildings, but
this may not be all that is necessary.
The warm weather may reveal odors
which did not seem apparent when the
weather was colder, and some of them
may be intensified as the days become
warmer.
The way to best get rid of all bad
odors and impure air of the poultry
department is to disinfect the house.
and no better substance can be en-
ployed in this than generous supply
of whitewash. 1t is not only the best
way, but it is the cheapest To make
it do it's best it should be used without
stint on the inside and on the ceiling,
on the nest boxes and on the roosts,
| and the floor may have some of it with
out doing any injury to it, What would
be better for the floor will be air.
Stacked lime.
The roosting place and the yards
may be sprinkled generously with So
luton composed of copperas. This is
very cheap and it dissolves readily in
water. a very good way to apply this
is by the use of a sprinkling can. 1t
will kill a bad odor at once, and is ako
fatal to disease germs. Do not be sat
istied with plenty of pure air, but dis
infect the premises. Pure air is good,
but the bad air wants to be made good
or made manifestation

NOT ACQUAINTED WITH THEM.
Men Dead Fifty Years Elected to 0f1ce
by Benishted Aldermen in
New York.

A New York alderman INDUCED in little
fun at the expense of his associates the other
day, and through his influence that honor
able body elected two men, eminent men,
dead these so years, to the position of com.
missioner of deeds. The names of the dead
thus honored are: Noah Webster, lexicog-
rapher, and Lindley Murray, grammarian.
The world says the trick was worked this
way:
A slip of paper containing these names,
with Brooklyn addresses, was circulated at
the meeting of the board. Alderman Dixie
approached Alderman Bridges and said:
''Say, jim, I've done favors for you. Here
are couple of men who want to be made
commissioners of deeds. That fellow Lind.
ley Murray told me he was friend of yours"
Alderman Bridges looked at the slip and
replied: :.
Il don't know the gent, and l amt going
to present his name"
Alderman Dooley, another member from
Brooklyn, was persuaded to sign the applica-
ton, and in less than ten minutes the
formal vote electing Lindey Murray and
Noah Webster commissioners OF deeds was
passed.-American.

hose Is to 20 feet long for hand use, pro-
vided with rose and stop cock, branches
from the main barrel pipe.
The derrick is built directly on plat
form five by eight feet made of flooring
and so slanted as to drain TO one side,
so the substance used can be collected
in trough and poured into lower
barrel sunk in the ground. From the
lower barrel there is pipe running to
the upper one, which is provided with
pump. There is also narrow chute
leading to the derrick through which
the cattle pass.
The dip is mixed in the lower barrel
and is then pumped into the upper one.
An animal is driven on the platform
and the dip allowed to play on it for
one minute, while so doing the hand
hose is used between the thighs and
on the brisket and lower parts of the
body. The dip that runs off the animal
is caught in the lower barrel and
pumped up, thus preventing much
waste. Trash must be kept out or it
will clog the nozzle; this can be done
by using cloth strainer on the upper
barrel.-Farm and Home.

POINTERS ON HORSES.

Horses that are subject to collie must
be handled with care.
1t is an easy matter at this time to
ruin horse by overheating.
A horse that is watered only two or
three times day is apt to drink too
much.
The teams should not be allowed to
drink stagnant water under any cir
cumstances.
Remove the harness while the horse
is resting at noon, and at night as soon
as the work is done.
After cooling off in the evening give
thorough cleaning up; the animal
will rest much better
See that the stables are kept clean
and well ventilated. 1t will do much
to keep the horses healthy.
Keep the teams as quiet as possible.
Excitement and fright are more apt
to heat horses injuriously than hard
work.
Two-thirds oats and one-third corn
is a good summer ration. Corn is too
heating to be fed exclusively in sum
mer.
Unthrashed oats run through a cut
ting box to which a little wheat bran
has been added make one of the best
feeds for horses known.-St Louis Re

Take Care of the Pigs.

Losses in narrowing and the present
apparent supply of hogs on the market
as compared with former years at the
same time, suggests that it will be well
to care for the pigs that did survive and
grow them into the best hogs possible,
for prices can hardly fail to do better in
the fall than they have been for some
time past. In fact, it nearly always hap
pens that reduced production follows
quickly upon year of low prices, as
the past one has been resulting in an
advance of price. If this happens upon
general principles it is much more like
" to where there has been as large a
loss in farming as there seems to have
been this spring. Take care of the
pigs!-Prairie Farmer.

THE LATE MATCHES.
Chicks That Come In September Es.
cape Many of the Perils of the
Early Summer.

As rule farmers do not pay much at
tention to the poultry and the farm
wives do not hatch chicks or other
poultry late in the season. We do not
think it very good plan to have chicks
come off during the dog days" as they
do not seem to do well. The other day
Mr.. Warner, of Sibley. H., was at our
house. and he drew picture of an old
hen busy scratching for one lone
chicken during the hot weather that
WIS true to life in every respect.
If hens are set the second week IN
August and the chicks come off about
September /, they usually dc very well
and make remarkably quick growth.
These chicks will be well grown when
cold weather comes, and if kept in a
warm house during the winter they
will be ready to begin laying in the
spring and will lay well into the sum-
mer without getting broody.
Chicks that are late Matched escape
many of the perils of early summer,
and it is not rare thing for every one
Of brood to grow up to full size. This
year there are many complaints ABOUT
poor matches, and we have had some
of that kind, both in the incubators and
under hens, and we shall keep right on
Matching chicks until October /, as we
have a poultry house that can be
warmed if necessary. although we shall
not use artificial heat except as last
resort in very severe weather.
1t is fact that at the winter shows
good many prizes are carried off by
late-hatched chicks, and this should en-
courage those who have not got their
full supply to try and make up IN,
deficiency by preparing for some late
chicks this year.-Farmers' Voice.

How TO Extermfnate Scab.

Beware Of introducing scab when you
get new sheep. 1t is very easy to intro
auce scab into your barns, and extreme
~ difficult to eradicate it. Every animal
purchased should be isolated from your
l5-ana closely watched for symptoms
Of the disease, says the Country World
In fact, ii would be much better plan
to dip the sheep yourself Immediately
upon their arrival, and then give them
q second dipping in ten days. They
may have been dipped at the stock yard
when you purchased them, but there
will have teen abundant chance for
TO again become contaminated on their
way to your farm, especially II til )
were shipped in the cars.
