Bailey Willis Of the United States

In three volumes the geological trar
verse Of about 1900 miles In north
and central China that hts party made
for the Carnegie institute. He says
that China's present needs require
the working OF All the coal fields to
the depths permitted by Chinese meth
oda, and that when the empire de-
velops her industries the productive
capacity Of all possible coal mines will
be taxed. With her enormous neces-
stiles, he does not believe that China
will have coal to export He esti-
mates the total amount OF coal Ia
north China at sO6.000, 000. 600 tons,
which may be 100000, 900, 900 tons
more or less out OF the way. As far
as Is yet known. the larger part OF
the coal OF China Is In the northern

An eight-room house somewhat on
the bungalow order, or rather a modi-
fication Of the bungalow idea. Is given
in this plan. A bungalow, properly
speaking, has only one floor, but this
plan provides three bedrooms above
and the kitchen is added at the back
with lower roof.
The bungalow developed IN this
country on the Pacific coast. The idea,
was probably originally brought from
India although a great many archi
tects claim that the modern bungalow
really is the outgrowth Of the log
cabins, and the sod and adobe houses
Of the early inhabitants Of the United
States Probably bungalow archi-
tectural ideas could be traced back to
all these sources. The result is that
we have very comfortable low cost
house called bungalow which is
being extensively built In different
parts Of the country and its popularity
Is constantly increasing.
Within easy reach Of large cities
bungalows are going up by the hun
dreds and the idea Is a good one. Peo-
pie are tired Of being crowded into
small unhealthful quarters and are
taking this means Of providing them
selves with good sensible homes at a
reasonable outlay.

is the stairway, which In this case Is

bottom.
You seldom see an open stairway in
a bungalow house. It seems to be out
OF keeping with the general layout.
There Is a modification Of ideas in re-
gard to house stairways even in larger
houses. The question has often come
up asking why should we build a

Suggestion for the Making Of a servs
iceable Device.

The homemade brooder may be a
drygoods box, made about 2ihz2B
xa feet long, built of matched lumber,
with q loose cover made a little larger
with its edges dropped A inches.
The entire outside of the box should
be covered with felt roofing. The door
on one end should be large and low.
A frame, made of threeinch stuff,
laid fiat, fits close around the bottom
Of the inside A 6inch cross piece laid
fiat through the middle Of the box
engages the side Of the frame.
A S-inch cross piece Is placed on
edge, across the middle Of the box,
resting on the 6Inch fiat cross piece
and held by cleats nailed to the inside
Of the box
The hover, explains the Farmers
Mail and Breeze, is made over a rec
tangular frame, Of lath made to fit in
side the box, with thin canton-nannel
on the underside, arranged in a loose
bagging or flowing manner and held
In place with carpet tacks. The hover
rests upon three buttons, one on each
side and one on one end, inches above
the bottom of the hox.
A wire Is stretched across one end OF
the top Of the box, carrying hook on
which to hang a lantern.
To use at night, close the door, place
mat in each end or division, also 40
chickens in each division, place the
hover on the buttons, hank lighted
lantern on the wire and put cover in
place, on which lay good-sized stone.
A brooder without the two following
essentials is not worthy the name:
First The door should be large and
low enough that the chickens will go
In at night without help, by the end
OF the first week Of their existence.
Second. II should be so constructed
that the door may be closed In bad
weather. the hover removed, chicks
fed and watered mats changed, etc,
without opening the door.

IN use, With these extreme precau'
tions, when the mixer goes to the
milk room, he Is as clean In person
and equipment as 1t Is possible to
make him. IN milking it is a common
practice to discard the foremilk. The
milking is done strictly with dry
hands, except In a few instances
where vaseIine is employed "a usage
which Is reported to be entirely prac.
tical). In some diaries mixers are re-
quired to wash their hands before
milking each COW, but this is not the
general practice.
After being drawn the milk is taken
Immediately 10 a separate room, where
It is strained into can through

diately to the bottling room where
usually 1t is cooled to a temperature
as low as As degrees to SO degrees f.,
and In some cases as low as S5 de-
grees r. Sometimes it is strained
again through absorbent cotton on
reaching the cooling room. In q ma
jority Of the dairies a cooler Of some
description is used; in few, however,
the milk is strained into cans standing

Of bacteria will keep sweet for a long
time The theory that clean milk
should have long keeping quality
works out in practice. Instances are
on record where certified milk has
been taken on an ocean voyage and
not only brought back in good condi-
ton but kept sweet until 80 days old.
In fact It Is now common practice
for people when crossing the water
or taking a long land journey with in-
fants to take several cases Of certified
milk with them. They are then rear
sonably sure Of having a constant sup.
ply OF sweet milk for several days.
Some producers who guarantee their
milk have Offices in London az well az
In this country so that supply Of
fresh milk can be secured by voyagers
going in either direction. This has
been a great convenience and has
given comfort 10 many people. Again,

the United States sent exhibits Of

VIGOROUS FOWLS.
Watch the Flock and Pick Best for
Future Breeders.


Any person that has much to do
with fowls is forced to notice the
greater vigor Of some when compared
to others In a flock Of SO fowls per-
haps ten win show exceptional vigor.
These should be kept for breeding,
and the fowls with weaker constitu-
tions should be disposed Of, says Farm
ers' Review This yigor means a great
er power to produce flesh If flesh Is
wanted or to produce eggs II eggs are
wanted.
The vigorous fowls are the ones
that resist disease the most effective
". The disease killing factors in
their blood are more powerful than
In the less vigorous fowls. Therefore
with such fowls, the losses from dis
ease are sure to be less than IL other
fowls are kept The less vigorous
birds are the ones that first fall vic
tins to any poultry disease that
comes along. Therefore the quicker
they are fattened and made into meat
the surer is the owner of getting his
money out Of them.
The less vigorous fowls are doubt
less as good for food as any others,
and that is where their greatest utility

has not received the attention It is
worthy to receive. for 1t counts for
much in the development OF the far

THE LARGE INCUBATOR.
Il Is to Be Preferred to One Of SMALL
er Capacity.

The size Of the incubator must be
regulated by the operators needs, but
we believe a small machine does not
pay 80 we'll as the larger sizes, for
the cost Of operation is nearly as much
and less time is required to care for
one large brood than several small
ones. When the beginner can hold
the temperature steady and the same
in all parts Of the egg chamber for "a
hours 1t Is safe to put In the eggs.
These should be carefully selected, Of
medium size and Of good shape, not
elongated, nor very large at one end
nor fattened The she'll should be
smooth and firm not thin or porous
nor too heavy. BY the way, says the
Farm and Field, one should be careful
about the place Of storage for eggs for
Matching purposes; if 1t is too cold the
germ will be chilled; If too warm the
germ may begin to grow. Eggs have
been known to germinate at SO de-
grees. The eggs need not be placed
In rows, but never should be crowded
SO that they are piled on each other.
Upon the care Of the lamp and the
regulation Of the temperature depends
in a great measure the success of the
hatch. Always supply the lamp with a
new wick at the beginning OF each In
cubation and fill 1t late in lie after
noon for then if anything happens It
viii be in the daytime. Never handle
the eggs after caring for the lamp as
there is danger Of closing the pores
Of the eggs.
