With quite a number of farmers the
belief is that from about the last Of
October to the middle of November Is
the best time to plant an apple tree
AT that time usually the ground Is

the growing season is over and the

to set the trees in a trench with ton
sloping close to the ground. Then
cover with litter to prevent severe
freezing. They will be In fine shane

ty. No drunkenness Is allowed, and
beyond the little whisky that is doled
out from the palace, no Intoxicating
liquors are obtainahle on the islands.
There was time, not so long ago,
when the natives manufactured their
own fire water. They brewed a con.
coction from cocoanuts, which they
called palm toddy.' They got drunk
on it--nastily drunk-and the result
was law prohibiting every possible

toddy obtainable on the islands"

Mother, is one New Selma boasts a
modern school in which Arabic and a
little English are taught, and the
young idea is trained in the tenets of
Mohametanism, which is the religion
of all proper Malayans. All marrying
and giving in marriage has to be done
through the New Selma registry Office
after his Majesty has approved of
the union. To understand the divorce
laws of the kingdom 1t is perhaps
necessary to be New Selman: they
are a little complicated. Like his

PAINT MATERIALS ON FARM
winter is Good Time TO Go Over Ma
ohinery and Woodwork-Hiot,
Paying Investment.

| ANY man can easily learn to use the
paint brush. No particular skill is re-
CURED. Every farmer should have
TWO or three good paint brushes OF
ulnerent sizes and keep on hand
supply OF white lead, linseed oil and
paint coioring matter. These mate
rlais are comparatively cheap and
when rightly used are a high paying
investment
| In winter is a good time TO use the
farm paint brush, because then there
are spare days when painting can be
done without interfering with other
WORK. IL Is good time to go over
an the farm tools and machinery and
give all the wood work one or two
coats or good paint This work can
De done on the barn floor, in a shed
or IN any building where there is
space. II the weather is very cold
when the work is to be done, box of
not sand, earth or salt may be used
TO set the paint pail in SO that the
paint viii be warm and flow easily.
Inc warmer the paint the deeper and
more quickly win 1t strike into the
wood
In starting to paint a tool or ma
chine first clean ii Off thoroughly. IL
IL 10 only dusty, use dry rag, but IL
1t is muddy wash 1t off with warm
water, go over the surface with a dry
rag and then let IL dry In the at.
inosphere for several hours till all OF
the moisture Is out OF the wood Wa
ter and oil will not mix and If any
water is in the pores of the wood the
OIL VIII be kept out and hence will
not have chance to do it's full work.
FOR the first coat of paint on new
wood, or wood in need of remaining.
use about seven-eighths of linseed oil
to one-eighth of pure white lead and
only touch of coloring matter. If
TOO much white lead. and co1oring
matter are used in the first coat the
paint will be so thick that it will not
strike deeply into the wood. What Is
desired at first is to deeply fill all
pores of the wood with preserving oil
and then to coat with lead to seal and
protect the pores. so that the oil
cannot escape.
The paint mixture must not only be
well stirred to break up the lead into
minute particles before the paint IL
used, but stirring at intervals Of every
few minutes must be given while the
paint is being applied to prevent the
heavy lead from settling to the bot.
tom of the paint pail. 1t must always
be kept In mind that linseed oil Is a
very light substance and that white
lead Is very heavy substance. They
will separate on standing for only a
few minutes. the lead sinking to the
bottom and pushing the oil to the top.
For the second coat Of paint use
about one-fourth or one-ffth OF white
lead In the mixture and envagn color
