Since logs cut on timber lands leased

mills are being removed to Canada.
The millmen seem to take the matter
calmly. Other philosophers and all

lions, the United States would proba

A popular color for canary birds in
England at present is a reddish yellow,
or deep orange This color. it is said,
can be produced artificially by dieting
the birds on number of different sub
stances the chief of which is cayenne
pepper mixed with molasses. Dealers
are able to produce particularly de-
sirable shades by varying the guam
tity of pepper and by adding occa-
sionally a little turmeric or madden.
Each dealer has his own formula,
which he keeps secret. The plumage
of the birds thus treated is apt to fade,
and they are kept as much as possible
out of the light.

At the Royal Technical school in
Charlottenburg, Germany, Prof. jesse
has recently tested, with remarkable
results: a method Of Increasing the
efficiency of steam engines, which was
invented by two Germans some ten
years ago, but has only now been ef-
fectively applied. The principle de-
ponds upon the employment of the
exhaust steam from an ordinary COM
pound engine to evaporate another
LIQUID having a lower boiling point
than water. The liquid used is sui
Dhurous acid. The heat of the exhaust
steam is sufficient to liberate sulphur
dioxide gas, and this passing into the
cylinder of an auxiliary engine, acts
the part of steam. 1t is afterwards
condensed and goes back to the vapor-
izer. The result is said to be that
to every indicated horse power devel-
oped in the main engine about half
horse power is added by the auxiliary
engine, without increasing the con-
sumption of fuel.
