"They might have found you guilty,

dread clouded the beautiful eyes that
looked into his. How could I have
endured waiting for the trial, waiting
and dreading-ah!"
Her voice ended In a sudden little
cry: she glanced quickly round ut the
window with look of swift, startled
fear: and Jack Lathom turned too.
From behind the close.curtained
window had come the sound OF a
stealthy footstep on the gravel-a

lead every farmer. who can do SO. to
study this question more closely than
ever before.
To aid In such study we copy from
a Canadian bulletin the illustrations
and explanation which follows:
Roughly speaking. ten pounds Of ice
are equal In cooling power to 100
pounds Of cold water. Thus 100 pounds
of water containing ten pounds OF ice
will do as much cooling as 200 pounds
OF the same water. Or. In other
words. the use Of ice in the water sur.
rounding the milk may do away With
the necessity for changing It. The
same advantage applies in the case of
using a special milk cooler. The ice
can be placed in the receptacle which
contains the supply Of water for the
cooler.
But the most important advantage
In the use Of ice arises from the fact
that by its use the temperature of the
milk can be reduced to, and main
tanned at, a lower point than is posi-
BILE with the use of water alone: and
low temperature is absolutely nee
essary for preserving milk for lengthy
periods. The temperature should be
reduced to so degrees and maintained
at that temperature when milk is to
be kept from Saturday night or Sun
day morning till the following Monday
morning.
To utilize the Ice for household pur-
poses In connection with an arrange
ment of this kind. 1t would be neces-
sary to provide an insulated Ice box

careful that the saw-dust does not con.
tain any ice chips or SNOW. When no
sawdust is available, cut hay or cut
straw. or chat. may be used. but In
this case the space between the wall
and the ice should be twice as large
GA inches instead Of 12) and care
should be taken to have the hay or
straw packed a. we'll as possible.
6. Cover the ice on top with saw.
dust or long hay; IL inches Of saw-dust
will do. Hay should be put on two
feet thick. Hay and saw-dust make an
equally good covering, II used In prop
er quantities.
When sawdust IL used. put on two
feet thick at first. This will leave IL
inches to spare to fill in the sides in
the spring. when the saw-dust along
the sides has settled.
Z. A loft floor over the icehouse does
more harm than good. as 1t prevents
circulation OF air and keeps the GOV.
end Of the gable fitted with louvre
boards. and have ventilator IS inches
square going through the middle OF
the roof TO create a thorough circula-
ton OF air and thus prevent accumu.
lation of heat under the roof.
