All reports from THE great copper

are distinctly iii evidence over that way
for lively development and increased ore
production. The signs point TO the
probability of copper climbing back to Is

A simple method Of constructing .
boz kite Of the modern type 10 given
In detail ~ follows: The sticks
should be made Of straight-grained
wood. which may be either spruce,
Eastwood. or white pine. The lonst-
tudinal corner spines. A A. should be
three -eighths inches square BY ~
inches long. and tue four diagonal
struts. b. should be onefourth inch
BY ons-half inch. and about 26 inches
long.
Two cloth bands should be made to
the exact dimensions given in the
sketch and fastened to the four longi.
tudinal sticks with one ounce tacks.
It 10 well to mark the positions of the
sticks on tho cloth bands. either with
. soft lead pencil or crayon. In order
to have the four sides Of each band
exactly equal. The ends Of the bands
should b. Tapped over at least one
half inch and sewed double to give
exact strength. and the edges should
b carefully hemmed. making the
width. when finished. exactly u
Inches. Probably the best cloth for
this purpose IL nainsook. although
lonsdale cambria or lightweight per.
caline will answer nearly ~ we'll.
The diagonal struts. B. should be
cut little too long. 10 that they will
be slightly bowed when put In posi-
ton. thus holding the cloth out taut
and nat. They should be tied to-
gether at the points OF Intersection
and the ends should be wound with
coarse harness makers thread. a

small guards. d. are nailed or glued
to the longitudinal sticks to prevent
the struts slipping out Of position. OF

add little beef scraps. After the

Rules for the Measurement Of Hay In
Stacks.

A ton OF dry hay contains all the
way from 800 to 800 cubic feet. de-
pending on the length Of time It has
been stacked and It's quality.
The rules for measuring hay vary
In different localities. u cube Of seven
feet being considered In some places
q ton and . cube OF eight feet being
considered ton At other places We
would like TO sell hay by the seven
foot plan and buy It by the eight foot
plan. A cube OF hay eight foot each
way will contain 612 cubic feet In all.
which with the average run OF hay
will come very close to \ ton. II takes
= very excellent quality Of hay for
cube Of seven feet to make = ton.
The rule for estimating the mum.
Der OF tons In an ordinary stack is to
multiply the length In feet by the
width In feet and this by the height to
. point where the stack would be
level. This height IL sometimes COZ.
sidered one-half the height Of the
stack. The result divided BY 500 will
give . very good measurement OF hay
being tho uumber OF tons In the
stack.
To estimate the contents Of round
stack. says the Farmer. We multiply
the square OF tho distance around the
ttack in yards by four times the
height In yards and point Oh two
places from the right and this will BE-
the number Of cubic yards In the
stack. which divided by 20 will equal
the number OF tons. For In.
stance. . stack measures 20 yards
around the bulge and II eight yards
high. to and the number Of tons arst

Ing this By four tinss The height cight
