ARRANGEMENT OF TANK AND OIL

days standing to bring all this to the
top. Three or four years ago finally
hit upon plan that like better than
Mr.. Greiner's, which is shown In the

mine, when full, weighs 1000, which
weight must have a solid, smooth bot
tom to rest on. heat with hot water
which almost entirely obviates the
danger Of burning or over-heating. In
brief, my tank has a double bottom in
which are arranged series of parti-
tions, which, in connection with a coil
of pipe outside the tank, keep cur
rent of hot water passing continually
between the bottoms, much upon the
plan of a water-back and pressure

In commenting on this plan the ed
itor of Gleanings in Bee Culture, says
The plan for your honey-tank to be
heated with hot water is excellent. al
though | must say that | am surprised
that so small a stove would be capable
of heating or warming up 1000
pounds. But If you have tried It, and
1t works (and | have no reason TO
doubt your world, then any one else
can safely make one like 1t. A honey
heater like yours, or the one illus
trated above, would be very valuable
adjunct to an apiary. especially where
large crops Of honey are produced.
Generally speaking. an oblong or
square tank is much more expensive
to make than round one of the same
capacity. The same method of heating
could be applied TO round tank as
we'll as to one oblong like the one here

WHEN TO AERATE MILK.
Necessary Only When the odors Of
the Barn Have Been Absorbed
by the Milk.

For a great many years an opinion
prevailed that the aeration of milk
was a necessity. IL was believed that
In the milk was some kind of an ami
NAL odor that could only be taken out
by exposing the milk to the air. In
the factories where the cream was
handled for butter making or milk for
cheese making. large aerators We're
used in some cases. More often, how
ever, this was done In bottling plants
that supplied milk to adjacent cities.
The milk was run over coils in which
circulated brine or ice water. On the
farms the aeration was done by taking
the milk out-of-doors and pouring 1t
from one pail to another or stirring
1t with a great ladle. While aeration
Is still practiced to some extent, It Is
not practiced to the extent 1t used to
be. Especially is this true on the
farms. Among the better class of but
ter makers there Is at the present time
about as much opinion against aera-
ton of milk as there Is for Il. The
old Idea Of animal odor In the milk
has about been dissipated, and Il is
concluded by some OF the deepest
thinkers and eXperimenters that the
so-called animal odors were impurities
arising from outside sources When
the milk Is properly protected from all
Impurities, there is no danger of there
being animal odor in the milk. There.
fore the need of aeration does not ex-
list. We believe. however says the
Farmers Review that in some cases
milk should be aerated. because we are
conscious OF the fact that In many
stables odors do get into the milk.
MIX absorbs odors, as do many other
Kinds OF food products If we believe
mat odors have been taken into the
mix and there is good place in
which to aerate the milk, It should be
aerated, The winter season gives
purer air for this than the summer sea-
son.

Raising or Buying Small Fruit.

We have always urged farmers to
raise enough small fruit for their fam
lily use. The proportion of farmers
that raise enough fruit for their fam
lilies is increasing from year to year,
but yet there are many farmers that
do not raise any kind of small fruit
Their stock argument Is that it is
cheaper to buy the fruit than to raise
1t. That may be so in some cases, but
even II 1t were so In all cases, the fact
remains that most farmers do not buy
fruit for their families; and II they
do not raise 1t, their families do not
get It, Every man can afford to raise
all the fruit his family can use in
year, and If his fruit-ralsng opera.
tions are properly conducted. they will
require but little time throughout the
year.

SEA BIRDS THRIVE.
sooD WORK OF THE MAINE
AUDUBON SOCIETY.
Various Species Which Were on
Verge of Extinction Are Now
Carefully Reared--Inter-
esting Particulars.

/
According to the report of the Maine
Audubon society, just Issued the bird
life of the coast of Maine, which was
In danger of total determination few
years ago, is now Ia a thriving condi-
tion. 1t says that to comprehend fully
the results Of six years protection by
wardens. person should visit some
of the colonies of gulls and terms that
are being guarded.
The American elder duck has for
number OF years been on the verge of
determination as a breeding bird in
the United States. and special atten-
tion has been given to this species.
There Is only one island on the Maine
coast where it is positively known to
breed. although a few pairs may breed
elsewhere. Warden Cuskley of Libby
island estimates that 1900 young terms
were raised on his island. He says the
terms have established another colony
on a nearby island.
Capt. o. B. Hall, warden in the vi
cinity of Crumple island, reports
very favorable season for gulls, terms,
sea pigeons and blue herons, and says
1000 gulls and 1900 terms we're raised.
He also reports that the black ducks,
which formerly bred on Great Wass
island, have sought new breeding
place. This the warden attributes to
the fact that Wass island is stocked
with foxes.
Warden Cummings on Wass island
thinks laws should be passed protect
ing sandpeeps. He thinks they are too
beautiful and interesting, and are too
much part of the life of the seashore,
sandbars or salt meadows to be slaugh-
tered. Their bodies are too small to
be of value as food, and he thinks
shooting them for any other purpose
is grossly cruel. He says gunners come
to the island and kill them in great
numbers.
One OF the largest herring gull colo
nies in the United States is on Little
Duck islands. They are in charge of
Capt. William F. Stanley, keeper of
the light station. He reports about
$500 birds and 1000 nests on the
island this season. Warden Johnson OF
Swan island says that he could not
discover any elder ducks or sheldrakes
bred in this district this year. paiily
because the fishing boats go too near
the breeding places. He reports the
gull colony In better condition than
before.
lie says that at Huron island the
gull colony has more than doubled.
There were 1900 hatched on this
island. The night herons seem to be
holding their own, but the blue heron
Is slowly going down in numbers.
The largest colony OF herring gulls
on the Maine coast, IL not in the United
States. is at No-Mans-Land, which is
owned by Capt. Mark Young, who acts
as warden. He says that from 5000
to 10000 gulls returned and began to
nest there in April. They we're not
moIested. not bird shot. not an egg
broken. and more than 1900 young
were raised
Capt. James E. HUH, warden at Ma
tinicus Rock. says six puilins were seen
there. About 10000 tern returned TO
the rock and laid as usual, but the
week they were Matching there was
ralnstorm ana the young were
drowned In their nests. so that only

The Pitch of Roof.

The rake or pitch of roofs has much
to do in giving character and finish
to a building. For ordinary roofs,
whether shingles or slate are used, the
rise should be one-third the width of
the building. In houses where head
room is wanted in the attic the rise
should be one-half the width OF the
building.

Officers Make Inspection of Line
II Favorable Weather Continues
Line Certain of Completion Feb.
rliary.

Engineer Knox, w. E. Pierce and
Edgar Wilson, of the Boise & Inter-
Urban Railway Company. drove ov-
er the entire route from Boise to
Caldwell Monday and found that the
work of construction is progressing
very satisfactorily. The graders are
at work from each end of the line
and the grading Is finished for about
eight miles from this end and about
three miles from the Caldwell end.
The track is down for six miles out
of Boise and the tracklayers are fol-
lowing the graders closely. Poles are
being put up and as soon as all of
the track is down the wires will be
strung. The big bridge over the Boise
river at Caldwell is nearing compile
ton and will be entirely finished by
the time the track reaches it.
The contractors are pushing the
work with all rapidity possible, and
there is every reason to believe that,
unless the weather is very unfavor-
able, the road will be ready for oper-
alton by February 1. The very best
material Is being used all along the
line and the equipment will be as
fne as that of any inter-urban line
In the country.
Farms along the line of road are
being cut up into 40 and 20-acre
tracts and they are being readily
sold. Farm property has almost doub-
led in value all along the line since
the construction of the road was as
sured.

MEANS CHANGE OF VENUE.
Opinion That Judge Bryan Cannot
Try Murder Cases-Will Go To
Some Other County-Time Limit
Has Nearly Expired.

In the defeat Of Frank J. Smith
and the election of Judge E. L. Bryan
Of Payette, in the Seventh Judicial
District, signal victory was won for
the three officials of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners, who are held in
the Boise city Jail awaiting trial for
the assassination of Ex-Governor
Steunenberg. Judge Bryan, up to
the time of his nomination, was act
ing as attorney for Harry Orchard.
the confessed murderer of Steunen-
berg. This fact will bring about
curious legal complication that will
have an important bearing on the
trial of the officials of the Western
Federation of Miners, unless the
trials are set for the December term,
says the Pocatello Tribune.
If it should happen that the de-
PENDANTS are not ready for trial dur
ing he present term, Judge Smiths
term will have expired, and Judge
Bryan will have succeeded him, when
the cases are called. Having acted
as Orchards attorney, Judge Bryan
will not be allowed to try the cases.
This will call for change of venue
to another county, thing the law
yers for the Federation have been
lighting for ever since the men were
arrested.
Another thing that is in favor of
the prisoners is that the time provid,-
I'd by the Idaho statute for bringing
Of criminals to trial has nearly ex-
pired in the case of Meyer, Haywood,
and Pettibone.
Just at present the Supreme Court
of the United States has the applica-
tons for writs of habeas corpus for
the three prisoners under considera-
ton. Arguments have been heard
from both sides, but no decision has
'et been rendered. The intimation
from Washington at the time the ar
guments were submitted was that the
writs would be denied. Until the
supreme court has rendered its de-
clsion, nothing can be done with the
trials in Idaho. 1t was because At
torney Richardson, of the miners, had
applied to the United States Supreme
court for writs of habeas corpus that
the trials of Meyer. Haywood and
! Pettibone were not held at the last
term of court.
Should it happen that: the Supreme
Court has not handed down a dsci-
sion In this case beforesJudge Smith 8

needed. Mr.. w. H. Roadway was al
so invited to address the council He
also said that the people demanded
solid brick and stone structure,
and that he was IN favor of such.
He was inclined to think that the
council could build and furnish the
city hall with $25.000.00.
Some indiscriminate discussion
ensued as to the liability of the
building cracking. At this point
Councilman Harris ventured the as
sertion that all the brick buildings
in Caldwell were cracked. Mr.. Red
way questioned this statement, but ex-
pressed the conviction that great
many of the Caldwell people might
be cracked We believe that Mr..
Roadway was not referring to the
City Council.
Councilman Boone arose and ad-
dressed the council. Mr.. Boone stat
ed that the word veneered was
enough for him. without having such
building. He said he had seen
veneered buildings down in Pitts
burgh, which Is a town in Pennsyl-
vania, but that he had never seen
the virtue that was in them. He
touched upon the moral right of the
council to build such an expensive
structure, as the people of Caldwell
thoroughly believed and clearly in
tended that the $25,000.9O was to
cover the cost of the building, pay
for the site and the furnishings. He
thought the building itself should
not exceed $15,000.O0 in cost.
Contractor Harding stated that he
would construct a solid brick and
stone city hall for $19,20O.00, which
was an advance of $4,000 over
his bid on the veneered building.
This proposition was finally accepted
by the council.
