The Kind of Note Best Suited For
Long Range Signals.

The Kind of Note Best Suited For
Long Range Signals.
Signals made by sounds Of explosion
are not the most reliable. Their pene-
tration is obviously often uncertain,
while, their duration being brief, they
may be missed by m0mentary inatten-
ton. The reed horn was the more efti-
cient instrument as compared with
guncOtton cartridges over London. The
siren would probably have been yet
more efficient as also doubtless horn
capable of producing two notes differ
ing, say, by the interval Of third or a
fifth, conclusion arrived ut many
years ago by experiments which have
been unhappily too much lost sight OF.
Professor Piazzi Smith found by trial
that high note was generally more
penetrating as a signal. but advised
that such note should not be used
alone, assigning as one reason that In
dividuals possess note deafness similar
to color blindness, so that no one note
could be trusted. Experiments went to
prove that n sound varying between
high and low note best arrested at
tention at long range.
And the same result has been arrived
at in another way. The peculiar cry of
the Alpine guide, which is, in fact, of
that nature which Professor Smith ad-
yocatcs, has doubtless been taught by
the eXigencies Of his situation, where
his voice is required to carry across
broad and deep ravines. Nature has
taught the same lesson In the Austria
liam wilds. where the characteristic
"Cowi, cowiw appears essential to pen
citrate the deep woods.
Nor indeed need we look farther for
an example Of the same kind than our
own village lanes. The high pitched
voices of children are very farrcaching.
Their shouting can be heard farther
away in the sky than that Of man. and
I'm calling to their fellows they always
employ trick Of the voice taught
doubtless by experience. The cA!ld
will summon her playmate from far
away with well practiccd "Sally,"
the first syllable, high pitched and pro
lOnged, giving place to the second syl
liable uttered abruptly in a yet higher
note. And this mode Of calling is uni
versal.-Nineteenth Century.

THE TURQUOISE.

The turquoise, the birthstone for De
cember, signifies prosperity.
The turquoise was familiar and fa
yorite gem among the ancient MeXi
cans and Indians Of the west.
The turquoise fades when its owne
Is III. and dies when the wearer is at
tackled by an incurable malady-so the.
say.
The Germans claim that by its vary
ing shades the turquoise turns teiltal
on the caprices and moods of it
wearer.
Shakespeare gives these words t
Shylock: "He would not have lost hi
turquoise ring for whole wilderness
of monkeys"
The turquoise derives its name from
word meaning Turkish and is 81
called because the first turquoises wer
found in Turkey.
If your birthday comes in Decembe
and you wear a turquoise, you nee'
never be afraid of falling off higl
place. One Of the powers Of the azur
hued gem is to preserve its weare
from this catastrophe.
It is also said that it has the powe
Of protecting its wearer against con
tagion. A turquoise would certainl.
be an ornamental substitute for vaccl

SHINGLES AND sHlNGLs NAILS

wish to say Just word on the sub
| iect of shingling. Farmers and stock
men, from the nature of their occupa-
tions, require large, commodlous barns,
sheds, pens, coops, etc. All these build
| ings must be covered with some cheap,
effective, water-tight material, and
wooden shingles, taking the country as
whole and conditions that generally pre-
vail, are esteemed most practicable for
the purpose. The best cedar shingles
are the most economical in the end, as
they can be laid much faster and are far
more certain to make tight roof than
the cheaper grades containing knots
that are most sure to give trouble sooner
or later. Buy the grade marked
Extras" and do not begrudge the
extra" cost.
Now comes very vital poiut, namely,
the kind of nail to be used to fasten the
shingles. This matter has received very
sure and practical demonstration in this
section of the country. Never use a
wire nail of any description. Be sure to
employ cut nail every time. Further
more, use an iron cut nail of proper
size; not steel cut nail. The wire nail
will not stand the moisture conditions
which prevail on roof. 1t is slim,
rapidly corrodes under dampness, and
very often will drop shingles that have
been laid less than five years, shingles
that have not seen one third their period
of usefulness. This makes it very eI-
pensive, and | know of many losses OF
this kind that are TO be traced to the use
OF the wire nail.
The steel cut nail, while vastly better
for the purpose than the wire, is very in
ferior to the iron nail. Steel corrodes
much faster than iron. This has been
demonstrated beyond shadow of doubt
| in the case of steam boiler tubes, as well
as with roof coverings. myself recent
| ly was working on an old roof, removing
old shingles that had lain thirty years
and replacing them with new ones. This
roof was shingled with the old-fashioned
iron nail, and this nail was tough and
strong, necessitating much effort in tax
ing off the old shingles.
This matter of shingle nails is no
notion of mine, and | cannot emphasize
it too strongly, as | have seen the wire
advocated but short time since in a
certain newspaper article, whereas 1
positively know that to use wire nail
for shingling will invariably result in
financial loss.-M. Sumner Perkins in
Country Gentleman.

Persons interested in the sale of 'red
albumen'' have been trying TO work the
newspapers for some free advertising by
plausible article, looking like legiti-
mate communication, urging its use for
poultry. The editors of The Farmer
and Homes" detected the scheme and
suppressed the article, but it appeared
in many other papers.
Farmers all know that hens like some
animal food, and that in the form of in
sects il is more abundant in summer
than in winter. A variety of food is not
only liked but needed by most animals
and humans as well. In summer hens
running at large can get a great variety
| in the form of insects, seeds and graSs.
All of these contain more or less of the
albuminous material required for good
health and egg production. In past
years it has been failing in the practice
of many poultry keepers to feed too ex-
clusively on corn. Clear corn does not
give in the best proportions the needed
elements required for the free produc-
ton of eggs.
But the food is only part of the re-
quirements for winter eggs. Hens, to
Law in winter, must have warm, dry,
comfortable quarters, such quarters as
will make them feel that it is summer so
far as they are concerned. The most
perfect food will not enable hens to lay
eggs when they cannot keep their bodies
comfortably warm. What is red albu-
raen? Simply dried blood. 1t costs
when bought by the ton from fertilizer
l. .Aa init Nff nts
pound. A neighbor of mine ordered a
pound from his druggist, after reading
the article, and was charged 90 cents for
1t, a rate that would ensure pretty
good profit to the druggist, whether the
buyer gets a profit or otherwise.
But am not writing this to injure the
druggist trade, only to caution farmers
against being deceived by such articles.
Pepper has been recommended many
times for feeding hens in winter, but |
think the most successful poultrymen
are not favorable to its use but believe it
better to keep their hens warm by other
and better methods. To get winter eggs
one must have young hens that are Of
the right age to lay or older ones that
have moulted early in the summer or
fall, and finished their annual resting
SPELL March, or early April, pullets, if
given a warm and dry home of ample
size ought to lay eggs in winter, and
will, if properly fed and otherwise cared
for. The albumen needed can be fur
nished cheaply in the form of tankage
or animal meal, which is the dried blood,
bone and meat from the slaughtering
establishments that was formerly thrown
away by country butchers. 1t seldom
sells for more than two cents pound by
the bag of 100 pounds. Wheat bran and
oats furnish a larger proportion of al
luminous material than do corn or corn
meal, and should form part of the ration
both in winter and in summer. Wheat
is also better than corn for principal
feed. New England Farmer.

THE OlEO SWlNOlE.

The Brockton Times, commenting on
recent prosecutions of OleO dealers in
that city by the dairy bureau, says:
"Those who sell oleomargarine under
the guise of butter will be likely to
steer clear of Brockton as field OF
operations after the stiff penalty inflict-
ed upon one of the guild by Judge Reed,
and it is good thing for the public that
such lesson has been taught. 1t is a
contemplate kind Of swindling, deserv-
ing of rigorous suppression, and it would
be we'll for the people of the state gener.
ally, if the crooks engaged in it should
find it eminently desirable to leave
Massachusetts, out of their itinerary.
There is no objection to the sale of these
substitutes for butter, under whatever
name they may be classified, so long as
there is no attempt made to have them
masquerade as the regular dairy product.
AS matter of fact, such substitutes
are in quite general use, and the busi-
ness of selling them is as legitimate as
any other, when the customer is not i'm
posed upon. The 'oleo" swindler,
however, cannot be content with doing
a legitimate business. He thrives by a
policy of imposition, and his prompt
translation to the house of correction,
there to undergo the discipline his Of
fence deserves, is a matter for congratu-
lation."

This pardoa Of the eXiles of Irkutsk
was indeed on act of wise justice and
wise policy.
Night had now come on. Across the
windows of the palace shone the fires
Of the Tartar camp and far beyond the
Angara. The river was full Of floating
blocks of ice. some Of which were STOP
ped by the first piles Of the ancient
wooden bridges. Those which the cur
rent held in the channel foated down
with great rapdity. Thus it was evil
dent, as the chief Of the merchants had
observed, that the Angara could scarce
ly freeze along the whole of its surface.
Thus the defenders Of Irkutsk need not
fear the danger of being assailed on
that side.
Ten o'clock had just struck. The
grand duke was about to dismiss his
officers and retire to his apartments
when q kind Of uproar was heard out

Almost Immediately the door Of the

TbE HORSE RATION.

We have always fed oats and bran,
and continue to feed the same. We be-
lieve that the price of other grain has
advanced in harmony with oats, there
fore there could be no economy in sub,
stituting other feeds in the place of oats.
In this state and in other corn raising
states the farmers feed principally corn
to their horses, because it is cheaper
than oats, and horses can be kept more
economically. Corn costs more per
bushel, but it goes very much further
so that the same money invested in corr
as in oats will last longer. We do not
feed corn, because we think oats much
better. In regard to feeding brewers
grains we have had no experience, but
we do mix little oilmeal with our bran
and oats. The horses do not like the
oilmeal quite SO well as they do the
feed without it, but after they become
used to eating it we think it is good
ration to mix with our other feed II
small quantities.-Rural New Yorker.

BELIEVES IN GROUND FEED.

l believe that any kind of grain is
much better for feed when ground than
when given whole. 1t is more complete.
ly digested and there is less liability OF
inflammation of the digestive tract
As a rule we feed oats whole TO horses,
but give ground feed to other farm
animals. For dairy cows 4 quarts pei
day of ground oats will not be too much
if the animal is matured. For younger
cattle we feed smaller amounts in pro.
portion to age. We grind barley and
oats together and occasionally mix in a
little wheat. Corn and cob meal we
also find satisfactory. For fattenine
hogs we grind barley, meal and wheat
together in equal parts. This is an ex
cellent feed for hogs intended for the
butcher.
