Without Cost to United States.

In making this recommendation the
committee suggests means by which 1t
may be carried into effect. practically
without cost to the United States, which
may be done by taxing the companies
that use the water OF Niagara river for
manufacturing purposes. This Is done by
the Canadian government. All the power
companies ON the Canadian side of the
Niagara river pay an annual tax of from
81 80 per horsepower for the first 10000
horsepower to so cents per horsepower
for all above 10000 horsepower and in
that way all the improvements on the
Canadian side have been paid for.
The committee says that "in view Of
the fact that any tax levied upon the
power companies must, in the final event,
be paid by those who use the power and
who thus benefit financially at the ex-
there would seem to be no injustice in
compelling those who are now securing
this cheap power to contribute toward
the fund which shall serve to rescuef the
gorge froV its present dissertation and
preserve it permanently against further
abuse.
The scenic attractions centering about
Niagara Falls may be divided into three
separate elements. consisting of the rap
ids above the cataract. the cataract itself
and the gorge below. These three ele-
ments combine to form a natural wonder
not equaled elsewhere in the known
world, for here scenic beauty is joined
with an exhibition of resistless power
despoiled to promote the material well
fare Of individuals the committee thinks
may be accepted as fundamental prin-
ciple

In June, 1906. Congress passed an act
authorizing and directing the Secretary
of War to appoint committee of land
scape architects and others we'll fitted by
training and experience 70 advise him
in devising such measures as will re-
suit in protecting and preserving and i'm
proving the scenic aspect on the Ameri-
can side of the Niagara river, particu-
larly in what is known as the milling
District. Immediately below the falls.
where a succession of ugly factories and
power houses occupy the brink Of the
gorge for nearly mile.
Acting under this authority, President
Taft while still Secretary of War ap-
pointed Frank D. Miliet, Frederick Law
Olmstead, John Stephan Sewell and
Charles w. kutz. the latter a captain Of
engineers in the army, who recently SUBJ
mitted their report to Secretary Dick
inson. Their investigation was thorough
and they have already accomplished much
good by moral suasion among the prop
erty owners and manufacturers along the
brink of the gorge. and they recommend,
as the only permanent solution of the
problem, the acquisition by the United
States of a strip of property extending
the whole length of the gorge, not less
than one hundred yards wide, along the
rim, this strip to be converted into a
national park and reservation as fast as
the buildings now upon it can be grad
ua'ly removed.

Hints About the House.

The ribs OF n discarded umbrella
may be utilized for tying up tall and
willowy palms in pots.
Nutmegs should always be grated
starting from the blossom end. They
CRATE better that way.
When making cookies you can color
them pink By adding pink sugar. For
party cakes cover them with white and
chocolate icing.
1t Is said that good black ink mixed
with the white of an egg is excellent
to restore the color to black kid shoes
and gloves both.
Lamp chimneys should never be-
washed. Bamp a cloth in alcohol and
rub them with it and it will clean and
| polish them.
| A tasty sandwich is made of stoned
| dates, to which some walnut meats
have been added, the whole chopped
very fine and spread thickly on the
! bread.
To clean neglected lacquered brass
wash 1t gently in lukewarm water, rub
with cloth dipped in equal parts of
vinegar and lemon juice and then
polish with dry leather.
To remove scratches on furniture
dip wooien rag in boiled linseed oil,
and with 1t well rub the scratched ar
ticle. which should then be vanished
with shellac dissolved in alcohol.
New linen for working upon should
be rubbed over with a dry cake of
soap. This Will render the fabric soft,
SO that drawing threads or embroid
ering upon 1t will be much facilitated.
Boiled potatoes should be served as
soon as they are cooked. To make
| them drier drain off the water quick
/ ly, shake them in a strong draft of
air and do not put back the lid on the
pot.
When making glue you will find that
the addition of a little glycerin in
creases Its adhesive quality and makes
1t more elastic. One part of glycerin
to three parts of glue Is the right pro-
portion
Recent experiments in the use of
fuel show that even when gas is used
1t is more economical to buy cheap
cuts of meat that require long cook
ing than to pay the higher prices for
choicer cuts.
If the brush of the sweeper is dipped
in kerosene about once a month 1t will
be found that the lint and dust will
come out in mat. that the sweeping
will raise 90 dust and that the rugs
will look much fresher.

Get good eggs Have them fresh as
possible. While eggs q fortnight old
will hatch fairly well, those laid only a
week will hatch better.
Put in what eggs you want to hatch,
or have conveniently for the purpose,
according to the size of your machine,
then close it up and keep it shut
tight for As hours. AS it takes the
eggs nearly this length of time to be
warmed through, the thermometer will
drop below the required standard, but
if the flame is KEEP; as it was before
the eggs were put in the temperature
is sure to rise again and everything
be all right. To insure a good. steady
fame the lamp should be filled and
cleaned and the wick trimmed every
night.
At the end of As hours the eggs
want to be taken out and turned
twice every day-just enough TO keep
the ,olks from settling to one side;
and on tie seventh day they should
he tested and the infertile ones dis
carded. Again test them on the tenth
and fourteenth days for dead eggs,
and such as are found to be no good

If the machine has been properly
run. Matching will begin on the nine
teenth and twentieth days. The door
of the incubator then should not be
oDened until the twenty-frst day, or
the hatch is nearly over.-Exchange.

In the Yankee Tongue.

Many stories are being told at this
time illustrative of the wit and humor
of William Everett, "the fighting school
MASTER" who recently died in Quincy,
Mass. He had a wonderful fund of
good stories which he always told
well, and he never lacked a ready and
appropriate comment to cap another's
tale.
Once when he and Secretary Root
were dining with President Roose-
velt's family at the White House, Mr..
Root was reminded by "Swill-pail."
the boys, of the little girl who said
her grandmother had swill for din
ner. The mystified parents could not
solve the riddle till grandma herself
explained that she had been enjoying
good old New England boiled din
ner.
When the laughter cccasioned by
Mr.. Roots story had subsidized some
what, DR.. Everett turned to his host
with tat rare smile of his and said:
at is very evident. Mr. President.
that our friend was not born and
brought up in New England"
A moments pause before Offering
the explanation gained him the eager
attention OF all; then as he would cor
rect one of his boys. he said:

Round Dairy Barns.

The Illinois Agricultural Experiment
Station has sent to press a bulletin in
which the economy of the round dairy
barn is discussed at considerable
length. Comparison Of the cost of
round dairy barns is discussed at con
siderable length. Comparisons of the
cost of round barns with rectangular
ones, including the amount and cost
OF material, the cost of construction,
the amount of stock that can be shell
tered, the convenience In storing, han
ding, and distributing the feed, etc,
are brought out very clearly.
The bulletins include cuts and plans
of several round barns In actual use,
an itemized statement Of the cost of a
6O-foot round barn, and cuts showing
how the round barn at the agricultural
college was built, etc. The conclusions
arrived at by the author Of the bulletin
are that the round barn has a great
advantage over a rectangular barn in
convenience, strength and cheapness.
1t Is found that the round barn is
more convenient because OF the com.
pactness with which it is built and the
ease of getting the feed to the cows
Investigations show that the round
barn costs from 81 to 5S per cent less
than the rectangular barn containing
the same amount of space and built
of the same grade of material.

Tree Ventilation

The people of the New England
States are proverbial for their venera-
ton of trees, and in these days of
ruthless destruction of woods il is re-
freshing in the extreme to hear of a
case like the resident of Kennebunk.
port, Me. who, rather than 10 disturb
an old tree which grew on his farm
upon site desired for the location of
a barn, built the structure around the
tree. The barn wall completely cir
cumscribes the tree. but lies at suffi-
cient distance TO give the tree plenty
of air. The age of this particular tree
is not accurately known, but it is one
of pair which is said 10 have been
full-grown trees at the time of the
American revolution.
