GEMS COLORED BY RADIUM.
Diamonds Made Yellow by the Rays
OPAQUE Stones Show Little Change.

Glass is colored brown or violet by ra-
dunn rays. A. Miethe studied the action
of these rays on large number eff gems
ard found that many OF them are IN
fuenced by the rays. No general prin-
chile, can be indicated except that the
more transparent gems SHOW greater
tendency toward coloration than the
Opaque or highly colored ones. a.
Mr.. Nliethe used a preparation OF oo

diamond from Borneo was colored light
yellow after eight days and decided
lemon yellow after another eight days.
On heating the diamond to 2oO degrees
the yellow color was diminished, but 1t
could not be entirely got rid o., even at
n red heat A colorless Brazil diamond
showed no coloration.
\ peculiar behavior was shown by Il
blue sapphire from Ceylon. After only
two hours exposure to radium bromide
it showed coloration-green at first, then
light yellow, and after a few more hours
reddish yellow. After a fortnight it was
dark yellow, approaching chestnut. The
color could be got rid of by heating, but
the light yellow color always returned
on cooling.

which the adult soon energies and lays
its eggs on the young corn near the Az

one Of the achievements Of modern
poultry keeping is that of forcing a hen
to doff her old coat, and grow a new
one before the time when she would
do so naturally. Many hens shed their
feathers so late in the season, natural
ly, that cold weather overtakes them
before they get new suits, consequently
they seldom begin laying before spring
If the moult can be FASTENED SO that
a new coat of feathers is grown and
the laying can be started before cold
weather, the prospect is good for a
supply Of eggs during fall and winter
The result is usually accomplished
by cutting off all meat and mash foods
putting the hens Oh short rations Of
grain for week or so to stop the lay
ing, then allow more liberty and feed a
full ration high in protein. This loosens
the old feathers, which drop off quickly
and starts a rapid growth of the new

Denaturized alcohol Will probably be
come another great product OF the
southern states 1t is claimed that cot
tonseel oil machinery is perfectly
adapted to making industrial alcohol
from the potato. If this is successfully
proven, the many cOttonseed oil mills
Of the south, which are idle each sum
mer season for lack Of material, will be
able to operate all the time and keep
their employees together Furthermore,
being already equipped with the ma
chinery. they will, no doubt, be able to
manufacture the alcohol very cheaply.
Farmers would also be benefited by the
immense demand for potatoes that
would result In Cuba alcohol is pro-
duced and sold from twelve to fifteen
cents a gallon, and it is said to make
an excellent fuel for running engines.
1t produces no SCOT or disagrceable
odors. When the law recently passed
by congress to denaturiZe alcohol in
the United States becomes operative it
is expected greatly to increase the use
of the article both for fuel and other
purposes.

Cutting Asparagus Stalks.

The right way in cutting asparagus
stalks, says an expert in answer to a
question. Is to cut everything clean up
to the end of the asparagus season, or
up to about the time that green peas
are fit to gather After that we let all
the stalks grow, but if we were to cut
any. we would remove the little ones
rather than the big ones. This clean
cutting is also the best remedy for the
asparagus beetle, which gives rs some
trouble here. As long as all the stalks
are cut, the insect IS given no chance to
breed. and later on, when we stop cut
ting, we can spray the plants with the
Bordeaux mixture and arsenate of lead
combination which makes an end to the
beetle attacks for a while, and also
checks the rust If that gives trouble.
For Kidding the stalks of slugs alone,
busting with freshly slaked lime while
the plants are still wet with dew will
answer.

The establishment of crcamerles has
done much to put the dairy business
ON a stable and profitable basis, as we'll
as TO provide consumers with a uni
form quality Of good butter. The in
PRODUCTION Of the hand separator, by
enabling the farmer to feed skim-milk
in prime condition and minimizing
transportation expense, has also done
much for the business This has not
been without a drawback, however, in
that the separated cream Is not always
kept under proper conditions and that
delivered to the creameries differs
greatly in quality. When all are paid
the same rate for butter fat there is
no incentive to careful preservation of
the cream. At the experiment station,
Manhattan, Kan, a system Of grading
cream was adopted about two years
ago, the prices paid varying with the
quality of the cream. This has resulted
in great improvement in the cream de-
livered and enables the butter maker
to do his part better Bulletin No. 1876,

ject, and can be obtained by addressing

MoHAMMED'S BLOODY HAND.
History Of the Imprint on a Pillar in the

an obscure and poor quarter Of Stambul

1t is called the Mosque kahric, but it

When we returned to the great Church

again the print of the bloody hand of

The Antiquity of I'm Err,

A simple method Of finding out the
age of an egg, says the Agricultural
Epitomist, is by means Of the air space
which is situated toward the broad end
of the shell. If the egg is held up
between the hands before a light in a
dark room the air space cam he easily
discerned, and by It's SIZE the age can
be determined. In a perfectly fresh
egg the air space is very small, but
as age increases it extends, until when
the egg is three weeks old the air
space occupies about a sixth Of the
entire contents. With practice the age
can be told to within tweuty-four hours
