Public sentiment in Richmond seems
about evenly divided on the library
questionable sentimentalists on one
side and the practical people on the
other. The latter class think that
Richmond had better provide decent
and comfortable school houses for
the crowds OF children now huddled
together in unsightly and uncomforta-
bic buildings before expending large
sums for books, and they are not far
from right.

Skim Milk For PIr..

From results OF trials in feeding
skim milk TO pigs IL. II. Wing OF the
New York Cornell experiment station
calculates that. on the whole, skim
milk is worth about 10 cents per hun
dredweight when fed to pigs from the
time of weaving until they weigh
about 10 pounds. Clear cornmeal IS
perfectly satisfactory as t. single grain
when fed i'm connection with skim milk
WEAVING pigs in close quarters during
cold weather can hc made 10 gain q
pound live weight per day for three
months. There ale indications that
the proportion of skim milk can be IN
creased economically above the ratio
OF three pounds Of milk 10 one pound
OF grain usually recommended, thus
Iessening the amount OF grain food
that must be purchased.

one of the Best OF Winter Vehicles
Can ne Made In the Farm shop.
This Is the season when the virtues
OF the farm sled are thoroughly appar-
ent. To be entirely satisfactory a sled
should be well chapel ana strong,
while as light as may be. A National
Stockman writer's plan for such a sled
appears 70 be very desirable and IL as
follows:
The best sled is made from runners
with a natural crook These runners
may be sawed from a small crooked
tree body or from log having the
main root dug out aud cut OF two and
a half or three feet from the stem or
the tree. A small blue ash nearly al
ways has good sled root" and IL IL
often found in elm or white oak
This log is taken to the sawmill and
the runners sawed out eight feet long
seven inches wide. A log one foot in
diameter will make two sets. and the
charge for saving them is so cents a
set. 1t is best to have them seasoned.
but many good sleds are made from
freshly sawed lumber. Plane your run
ners smooth and shape out one for u
pattern. When you get IL Just right"
use II to mark the other by.
The sled known as the knee sled, as
shown here, is generally admitted to
be the best kind OF sled made. Cut
mortises at A A A IN each runner, these
mOrtises TO be by , inches and four
inches deep. The front mortise should
be one foot back OF where the crook
turns up and the rear one one foot from
back end OF runner.
For knees Or b RI use the very best
of timber Make the knees fourteen
inches long and three and a half inches
square. Cut lemons on each end. the
lower three and three-quarters inches
long and by 3 inches In size TO fit
the mortise IN the runner. The upper

Noah AND THE ARK.

The following question was asked in
last issue OF the News:
"Will you, or some OF the readers OF
the News inform me what chapter and
verse in the Bible contains the length
OF time that Noah was building the
Ark ? The answer usually given is 100
years, but where is the Biblical au-
thoritY for this statement?" w. w, S.
Falls Mills, Va.
1t is impossible 10 give the correct
length Of time. The Bible does not
give it. and authorities differ. The 100
years referred TO in the 9th chapter Of
Genesis evidently refers to the time
given the people in which TO repent,
and Noah may have been working on
the great ship all this time.
Different authorities have placed the
length OF time all the way from two 10
an hundred and twenty years.
Some idea OF the zine taken TO build
1t may be obtained from its dimensions.
In round numbers the Ark was 400
feet long, 10 feet wide and 40 feet high,
built entirely OF wood. and was capable
to carry about $4,000 tons. II carried
8 persons, about $50 pairs Of animals,
etc, and provisions sufficient for nearly
year.
We ask our friend this question:
Did the flood cover all or only por-
ton of the earths surface?

THE RELIGION OF LAUGHTER.
j. A. LESLIE.
Jan. Goth, 1905.

A distinguished minister delivered a
lecture recently, In large city on
"Ihe Religion Of Laughter" He said
that there was religion in laughter.
Many Of us older heads can recall the
time when 1t was considered, If not a
sin, an unmistakable indication OF an
irreligious spirit to indulge in much
laughter. "Sober mindedness" was
considered inconsistent with buoyancy
OF spirit, fun-making or laughter. To
indulge in much laughing, particularly
ON the Sabbath, was considered un-
favorable 10 religious growth. The
older people, especially the minister
exhorted the young members to be
"sober-minded," which excluded all
~gaity and every exercise Of a light and.
trivial nature, particularly on Sunday.
whether at home or on the church
grounds.
And, consequently, such a thing as
attending parties, balls, shows, etc. was
entirely out OF the question. Even
musical instruments in most cases
were forbidden, churches going SO far
In some notable instances, as to refuse
to allow their young members to be
taught The piano. "The devil is in the
fiddle" was common saying. and the
banjo was tabooed, OF course. The in.
production Of the modern organs split
many achureh into warning and irrecon
.cilable factions. Certainly, in those DAYS.
laughter and all its elements did not
enter into the religion Of the people
The minister who would have dared to
discourse on the "religion of laughter"
in those good old days would have
been hauled up. and speedily stripped
Of his clerical robes.
Young people had gloomy time IL
they happened to belong to one of the
orthodox churches, and compiled with
the "rules OF the church." Graphic
pictures might be drawn Of solemn
councils OF sedate mon and women.
