The work in the average town or

inadequate or unhandy supply Of fuel

Reports are to the effect that eggs
may be kept long time and in excel
lent condition by wiping them clean
and coating them with lard. While the
keeping qualities of the egg may be
considerably increased in this way. we
question if the method is as effective
as the water glass solution.

The growing scarcity of post timber
in the United States. coupled with
corresponding rise in price for posts
of any description, lends additional
force to the necessity of giving posts
of whatever kind preseryative treat
ment which will increase their period
Of service from four to eight fold. An
estimate is made in a recent bulletin
on the subject issued by the forest
Fervice of the federal government that
+ fencepost which under ordinary cir
rlimstances will last two years will II
,iven preservative treatment costing
10 cents last eighteen years. Putting
this in black and white, the bulletin
states that the initial cost of loblolly
pine post is about cents, while the
cost of setting is 6 cents. Compound
ing interest Mt 5 per cent, the annual
cost of such post, supposing 1t would
last two years. would be 1853 cents. A
preventative treatment costing 10 cents
per post will increase it's use to eight
cen years In this case the post when
set costs q cents. which. compounded
at per cent, gives an annual charge
or 2.O4 cents. which makes the saving
due to the preservative treatment 5.49
cents a year In view Of these figures

That boy is mighty unsatisfactory
and unpromising proposition, both for
himself and other folks, who is lazy as
all get out. but still insists on having
three square meals day. 1t is a
source of increasing evaporation on
the part of those who have to put up
with folks Of this type that their con-
stitutional inactivity is almost always
accompanied by a remarkably sound
state of physical health.

The view that is held by many folks
and one that Is common in the speech
OF great many more, whether they
believe in 1t or not, is that ice which
suddenly disappears in ponds and riv-
crs at the coming Of warm weather
sinks" This is a superstition pure
and simple. for there is just the same
urerring physical law tending to make
1t float in the spring as makes it stay
on the surface of the water when it
forms in the early winter. The solu-
ton of the phenomenon is not difficult
When Il certain point Is reached in the
melting and rotting of the ice it sud
denly disintegrates into millions Of
tiny spines or needles. which. exposed
to the water of warmer temperature,
quickly melt The only instance in
which body of ice would sink would
he when it was mixed with or attached
to IN amount of dirt or stones which
would make it's specific gravity more
than the water which it displaces, there
By causing it to sink rather than float.

When one is thinking Of putting
money into this or that enterprise it Is
always we'll to view with suspicion a
proposition of whatever description
which promises more than Legitimate
return for the use of ones money. One
method that is often followed by the
worst type of grafters so as to make
investors in their games believe that
offers of abnormal returns on the in
vestment are sincere is to return to
them two or three large interest pay
ments-just enough to increase the ap-
petite for speculation and cause them
to put in still more. In reality these
payments are taken right out Of the
first installment of money sent in rath-
er than being the Legitimate return OF
the investment Of such funds in q
money making enterprise. But the in
weston finds. to his sorrow. that subse-
uuent returns are not forthcoming
Even in such cases as the one just
cited the abnormal interest return may
be safely taken as il danger signal
The wise person will heed it and keep
his money where he can put his hands
on it.

A friend the writer knew some years
ago fitted himself for the ministry.
While possessing sincerity and earnest
ness to marked degree, he was so
dieident and ill at ease in the pulpit
that his health broke down, and as a
result he had to quit his pastoral work.
He moved on to farm which he own
ed and today runs a model dairy, from
which be supplies milk to large num-
Der of customers in nearby town.
While he no longer has pulpit from
which to preach, he still has the same
opportunity to deal squarely with his
fellows and to give good measure,

While it Is always one of the busiest
periods of the year. the best time for
pruning In the orchard is during April.
May and June, as during these months
scars that are made most quickly heal
over, thereby lessening the possibility
that the process of decay will set In at
the point of cutting and thus weaken
the tree If the limb cut off is more
than an inch in diameter 1T Is well to
paint the cut with white lead and oil.
All limbs removed should be cut as
close as possible to the trunk or main
branch. while in removing one of two
limbs 1t is well to remove the one
which will leave the cut on the lower
side of the main branch rather than
the upper and on the side away from
the center of the tree rather than on
that toward it.
The person who pays his obligation
by check on his deposit in the bana
always has at hand an automatic re,
ceipt which prevents his paying the
same account twice. OF course tht:
situation presunposes bank account
which Is also a pretty coed proposition
It is a very natural instinct perhaps
for boys-ani this is true of some
grown gray headed-to find greater
zest In doing a job for ones neighbor
than for ones own folks Perhaps the
appreciation they get for the service
performed has something to do with
the situation described.
