he resides in county to the south of

The Use of the Chimney.

The chimney of lamp forces the
current of fresh air caused by the
rising of the heated air within it, to
pass close to the fame, so that oxygen
canse taken from it. This move
meaSef air is called draft.
Light is made by the particles of
carbon becoming white hot before
they are burnt up. The hottest flames
make no light.
Do not try to blow out a lamp while
the flame de high. being so may
break the chinney or ferce the fame
,dewn in to the lamp bowl and cause
an explosion. Turn the wick down
until the blaze is half it's usual sine
and than blew over the ehimney's top
not down it. TO turn the blaze quite
low and blow into the Abarner is more
dangerous. If the top OF the wick is
above the top of the tube when the
lamp is not lighted, oil will be drawn
up and will rum down over the lamp.
How Does a Lamp Explode
The heaingof the brass in the burn
ar may warm the oil until it gives off
a vapor in the lamp globe. II the
wick is too small to fill the tube the
fame will fash down to this vapor
and the lamp Will blow up
The screen must be kept open SO
the flame can breathe. If the. Chin
ney is NOT clear down on the burner,
the lamp smokes because the fame
gets too much air. When lamp
wick is too high it smokes because
there is too much fuel for the air
supply.
The brass in the burner and collar
should be kept clean and bright SO
that the heat will pass off. Only dirty
burners heat lamps SO as to make
them explode. When burner cannot
be rubbed bright it should be thrown
away because it is dangerous.
A lamp should not be set in the sun
nor close to a fire, nor hung to the |
ceiling over a table on which a lamp |
is used.
Filling the Lamp.
When lamp that has been burning
needs to be filed, do not take off the
burner near another light or fire.
The vapor in the bowl of the lamp
may expand until it reaches blaze
and explodes. Flaming oil is then
thrown over every one who is near.
Above all, remember that filing
lamp without first putting it out is
very dangerous.
When two-thirds of the oil in
lamp has been used it should be filed
again. Once each week the Oil left in
) lamp should be poured back into

The Dairy Cow.

conditions of your farm.
The Dairy Cow.
Mr.. Nelson then gave a talk on
SEThe Dairy Cow" In referring to
the permanence Of the industry he
said there would never be too much
butter manufactured and that the
present prices were certain to always
be approximately maintained. He
gave figures to show that the increase
in population exceeded the increase
in dairy cows and that conditions
were such that it would always be so
The cities contained half the nations
population and they would be al
ways consumers of milk, cream and
butter and never producers. Almost
half of the dairy cows of the nation
were today engaged in supplying
milk and cream to city consumers and
these herds had constantly to be re-
plenished from rural herds as the city
dairymen found milk selling too pro-
fitable to raise calves and the custom
regularly was to kill all calves bornin
their herds. These conditions, which
he said would hardly be changed to
any considerable extent, reduced the
butter producing cows to minimum
and very probably always would.
This lead the speaker to a discus
sion of the profit there asin raising
good dairy cows. He said the city
dairymen were always on the alert
for top notch dairy cows and when
they ran across communities where
good milk producing cows could be
bought regularly and in shipping
quantities, their agents were regular
ly on hand to buy and prepared Ito
pay extra good prices. They would
come to Morris if the COWS were
here and he said the cows could just
as we'll be raised here as not. There
were farming communities that made
a regular business, he said of raising
milk producers for the city herds and
there was g. constant demand for the
COWS at from $50 to S100 each. .
The speaker described tthe dairy
type of cow and gave many valuable
pointers on the selection of cows
He did not advocate the purchase
of high grade, expensive COWS, but
said tie practical way was to build up
from the present herds by wedding
out and breeding only to the best
sires obtainable. AS matter of COM
mon business prudence he urged the
systematic and regular testing of all
cows to determine the butterffat they
were producing and to weed out the
herds with the information thus re-
ceived as guide.

KEROSENE LAMPS.
Fire Marshall Tells How a Lamp
Burns.

Many children are badly burned and
some burned to death by the blowing
up and by the overturning of coal oil
lamps. When a lamp explodes, or
is dropped or knocked over and brok-
en-, burning oil is splashed about and
the clothes of persons within reach of
this liquid fire begin to burn upon
their bodies.
All the facts of the chemistry of
fire, and of explosion as well, can be
told in simple story of what occurs
in the light of coal oil lamp. While
the lamp burns the oil slowly disap-
pears, being changed to gases which
cannot be seen. Kerosene, being the
thinnest of the oils, sold for use in
lamps, is drawn rapidly to the top of
wick,
When match fame is touched to
the Oil in the wick's top its heat
loosens the atoms of carbon and
hydrogen, of which the oil is made.
They then unite with atoms of oxygen
of the air, for which they have
greater attraction than they have for
each other. This causes flame.
Morris tribune., 1909-01-30
Atoms that are Greedy.

Each carbon atom is so greedy that
it seizes two atoms of oxygen from
the air to form carbonic acid, while
each pair of hydrogen atoms takes
one of oxygen to form water. The
carbonic acid, which is gas, and the
water in the form of a vapor are car
ried out of the top of the chimney.
Gunpowder and dynamite do not
need air to burn them because they
already contain oxygen. Having
oxygen of their own they can be set
afire Dy spark and exploded while
shut in a gun or cannon. The force
of an explosion is from the solid matter
being quickly changed to gas which
takes up hundreds of times more
room.

gree. He thus stands acquitted on
the grounds of justifiable homicide,

yesterday afternoon and at the jury
announced that it had reached yer.
dict. The large crowd had gone home
and there We're only few persons in
the courtroom to see the dramatic
close of the most sensational case in
Linn county in years.
Judge Burnett and Powelrs family
were summoned and court was con-
vened. The verdict was handed to
Judge Burnett by A. H. Hudson, fore
man of the jury. When Deputy
Clerk Marks read it Powell was al
most overcome with emotion. For
several moments he was unable to
speak. Sheriff Smith stepped to his
side and supported him until he re-
gained his composure.
His first words were: THANK God,
Then, after a few moments, he shook
hands with the jurymen and thanked
them for their decision.
Powell was at once released from
custody and returned with his fam.
lily to their hotel.

No sadder death has occurred here
for sometime than the death of Frank

eer, who died at the Denver 4 Rio

18th inst. as the result of blood poi
soning following an operation for
varicose veins.

giant in structure, measuring b

235 pounds, man whose heart was
as big as his frame and whose friends
were legion.
