MAKE YOUR OWN
DRAINAGE IMPLEMENT
BY H. E. Cook.

Many farmer is delayed in his
work by so-called spring holes, or
spots where water comes to the sur
face. and having no chance to get
away, soaks into the soil until an
acre, perhaps more, is influenced. We
all understand that the water should
be taken out, but have been educated
to believe that drainage is to be ad-
vised only when we can Systematically
lay out field four to six rods apart
and put the tile down four feet deep.
Our subsoils in the east are gen.
orally hard, and must be picked up
before they can be handed with a
shovel. 1t is not very encouraging to
ask a man upon soils worth $50 an
acre to spend $25 or. perhaps, $40 an

The Appreciation Of Music.

II we would appreciate music Alright,
We must remember that its beauty de-
Ponds. not upon the composer alone
but upon ourselves also. Deep calls
upon deep; and the harmony Of
sound, though appealing primarily to
the outward ear, must be answered by
harmony from within ourselves. The
more culture we bring to the hearing
Of music. the wider our sympathy. the
more exquisite will be the echoes
which 1t awakens in the SOUL II we
would understand the composers mes
sage, we must cooperate with him.
We must reach out to him with all
our faculties. II we do that. the reve-
lation of music will ceaselessly renew
its beauty, ever turning unimagined
aspects to gladden. us.-Redfern Ma

The working dairy has a ten-foot
ceiling and the concrete flood slopes
two inches to the gutter. Cold air cir
culates from the ice-house through the
refrigerator. Openings being provided
between the two parts. There should
also be suitable flues for the warm air
TO pass from the refrigerator to the
ice. Perfect circulation of air is es-
sential to dry refrigerator.
A building IL by IL feet will not be
too large for a small creamery, espe-
cially If room for refrigerator is
taken out. If balloon frame of two
by four-inch scantlings is made, there
ought to be boarding of inch lumber
then one or two ply of building paper,
then matched lumber inside and
planed boards with battens on the out
side, and the air space at the top and
bottom between the studs should be
made as tight as possible in order to
make dead" or still" air space in
the wall which is the best non-conduc-
tor of heat and cold. 1t is better still
to fill this space with planer shavings
or asbestos, though this will add to
the cost. The ceiling should be
finished with two ply of lumber, and
one or two ply of paper between.
II the farmer can afford to do SO,
we should advise having the air circu-
late from the ice to the refrigerator,

tween the ice house and the creamery
