Radiura and Temperature.
Harper's Weekly

Harpers weekly.
How far radium is responsible for
the heat Of the earth is one of the
philosophical questions now interest
ing scientists. Prof. Rutherford, be-
fore recent meeting, stated that he
believed that the amount of radium
present and uniformly distributed
throughout the earth would be sufi-
cient to account for all the heat lost
from the body. In this event the
cooling of the earth. so that ultimate
ly it would become u2iahabitable, as
was calculated by Lord Kelvin, would
be postponed, and few more million
more years would be afforded for
the various forms of animal life.
Such a possibility was anticipated
doubtless by Lord Kelvin himself,
for in his calculations he inserted,
"provided new form Of heat is discov-
cred" This is now held to exist
in minute quantities of radium whica
are widely and universally disti .buted

GOOD ROADS.
Great Pride Shown by Citizens Of
York County.
The State.

Rock Hill November 15-1t is
probable that greater interest is be-
ing taken in better roads in this Sec
ton of York county than ever before
and great pride is being shown in
the work already finished in this di-
rection as we'll as in that under way.
Several months ago Mayor Hull and
Dr.. T. A. Crawford Of Rock Hill oo>
tanned the services OF the chaingans
and had it placed on the Lands. Ford
road leading east from town towards
the river. Then with the aid OF prl-
vate subscriptions paid in money and
hauling, rock was supplied for the
county's crusher for spreading on the
road. The gang under the supervi-
sion of Supervisor Boyd graded anc
ditched the road, making it IS feet in
width from ditch to ditch. In the
centre a bed was followed out to the
width of nine feet and in this was
laid crushed stone in three sizes, the
largest at the bottom and the fines,
at the top, to a depth over all from
10 to IL inches The stone was then
rolled and soon settled to a solid
track that. will last with little atten-
ton for a number Of years. One Hill
near town that only last winter was
so deep in mud as to be at time i'm
passible without aid from nearby far
mers for vehicles going down hill
even is now smooth and almost level.
A short time ago the completion OF
this road to Anderson's shop, dis
tance of about three miles or about
half again as far as it had been car
ried, was undertaken by the CONNER
cial club which, following the same
plans as those followed before, has
placed enough stone at the crusher
to more than carry ther DAD to the
pint named. In short time there
will be three miles OF macadamized
roadway leading out of Rock Hill
that will compare favorab1y with the
roads of any other section. The ma
cadam will be used in the winter and
wet seasons and the dirt. roadway at
the sides in dry weather, thus making
travel less hard on teams This road
is perhaps travelled more than any
other in the country and an encour-
aging featureis the manner in which
it has been accepted as an object les
son. Many farmers N eastern York
that the work is carried further. Out
of it is hopper that new era of road
making will revelop. Land lying
along the road now almost completed
and even beyond the point to which
the present work will be taken, can
hardly be bought for less than from
S. to $40, if not more per acre than
it could have been obtained for yea,
ago. Wagons can haul much larger
loads and make quicker trips with
1<=s wear and with less exertion Oh
the part of the teap's, while those
who have contributed feel that they
have expended very little.

WATER FOR SHEEP.

Sheep need water most in dry sum-
mer, but when the grass is fresh and
growing we'll less is required. You
might as well expect your dairy cows
to produce milk, some seventy or eighty
per cent. of water, as to expect your
breeding ewes to raise lambs that are
drinking milk on grass alone. In win
ter when they are eating dry feed more
water is taken than when they are sup
piled with roots or silage. Ordinarily
Il sheep ;hould have from one to six
quarts of water daily, according to
weather and feed. There is no place
in which sheep Will take water with
more zest than in a shed. In such a
place water does not freeze nearly so
rapidly as outside. A shallow trough
is best, and in very cold weather. if
the water is not wanted after the sheep
drink, it may be drawn eff to prevent
the accumulation of ice. 1t is mis-
take to try to water them in the sama
trough in which cattle drink.

GRUBBING OUT sTUMPs.

Grabbing out stumps or trees is
hard job, if all the roots are removed.
1t does not pay to dig out all the roots
except in road building or digging cell
lars. The best way to remove small
trees from the soil is to cut them down
SIX or eight inches from the ground.
Dig the soil away from the stump,
from four to six inches deep, cut a
length Of stove wood from the stump
and cover the roots with soil. 1t is
much easier to cut the tree twice than
cut it through the tough roots the first
time, as it is a hard job to work out
chip long enough to fell the tree eX-
cept hewing out a little at time by
taking tiers Of chips. When cutting
the stump the blocks may be split off
in thin pieces working around the
stump to get the narrowest side each
time. The roots remaining in the soil
will decay in few years, causing the
soil to settle a little, which may be
filled and reseeded.-J. II. Andre, in
The Epitomist

MADE FROM HANDKERCHIEFs.

MADE FROM HANDKERCHIEF
There is such Il fad for making all
manner of pretty and useful articles
from handkerchiefs that manufactur-
ers have We'd with each other in the
production of artistic effects in printed.
embroidered and lace trimmed hand
kerchiefs, especially for purposes of
fancy work.
The handkerchief fad has unnum-
bered followers, for the reason that it
affords occupation of a simple and
easy character, and the results are al
ways of some use
Pillow shams and cushion covers.
alike, are lovely when made of fine
lace trimmed handkerchiefs or finely
embroidered ones. There are so many
sizes of these that one has only to use
the smallest size for cushion covers
and the largest for pillow shams. For
the centre pretty idea is to have Il
single handkerchief with very deep
border, and then embroider the initial
in the centre of the square.
Handkerchiefs make charming ruff
fles and frills for underwear, as the
corners are so decorative and can be
Joined or left separate at WILL
A dainty scarf for a dressing table
is made of eight lace trimmed hand
kerchiefs, Joined together at the
points of the lace or with a narrow

ing, and bows are tied at the inter-
sections of the handkerchiefs. Six of
these are sufficient for small dress

chiefs are sufficient for scarf, where
large ones are used. They are Joined
by lace beading, run through with
baby ribbon, and have a frill of lace
on the edges.
Embroidered handEerchiefs wear
better than lace ones do, and are al
most as effective. When plain hand

COST OLE KEEPING HENS.

The cost of keeping hens depends
not only on intelligent care in feeding,
but ON whether the feed Is bought or
raised, says an exchange. The ration
for laying hens should be such that
the nutritive ratio to the egg produc-
ing properties should be about one in
four. This can best be produced with
cut clover, middlings, bran, corn meal,
for morning mash, with grain in
variety, corn, rye, buckwheat, wheat,
millet, etc. a fair amount of green
food, cabbage, carrots, potatoes, etc,
should be mixed in in the mash oc-
caslonally or fed raw every few days.
On such rations hen may be kept at
q cost of about seventy-cents year,
less il the food is raised.
Buckwheat is one of the best Of
grain foods for fowls and adds great
ly to egg production. Kaffir corn and
millet are also good if they can be
raised or bought at low price. On the
rations specified two meals day is
sufficient, the mash in the morning
and whole at night, fed among the
litter on the floor. 1t is sometimes
good plan to cut the night ration a lit
tie short, feeding the portion reserved
about the middle of the afternoon
among the litter on the floor of the
scratching house to keep the hens
busy. This question of food and their
cost needs to be studied closely, es-
pecially in sections where the eggs
fall as low as ten cents a dozen dur
ing the summer.-Farmers Home
