DRAINAGE WORK IS NOW EUE
Some Very Important Suggestions for
Laying Out Plans Which VIII
Bring Best Results.
zfBy w. r. GILBERT.)


The average life of the drains in
many soils is probably not more than
twenty-five years, and even II the
drains are not as old as that they may
have become blocked by roots of trees
or sinkage of individual pipes.
The point then to decide will be
whether to take up part of the system
and relay, or commence an entirely
new one. In the majority Of cases it
will be found that 1t is most satisfac-
tory to lay down an entirely new sys-
tenn and this is the course generally
adopted.
In laying out a new scheme of tile
drainage the following are the main
points that will require investigation
before the working plan can be pre-
pared or the work commenced.
No rule of thumb can be given, but
1t may be said that on the heavier
clays distance apart of six yards
and an average depth of two feet, nine
inches would be ample while on the
lighter sands and wet gravels 20 yards
apart and an average Of three feet,
three inches for depth would not be
too much. AS a general rule on me-
lum soils minor drains are set eleven
dunn soils minor drains are set eleven
Drains need not to be so near to-
gether on arabic as in grass land.
Drains should be at an average of six
inches deeper than the side drains.
Main drains should have fan of
not less than one In $50 or about 20
feet per mile. The actual position of
minors with reference to the slope
has been the subject of much discus
sion, but where the fall is fairly good
they may be taken across the slope
and this is generally the most practi-
cable way.
The number of square yards in an
acre (4.4SO) divided by the distance
apart of the minors will give the to-
tai length of side drains per acre.
This, If the side drains are II yards
apart, their total length on an acre Of
ground will be 44O yards.
Choosing the positions for the out
falls is often by no means an easy
task, but 1t may be taken as pr1n-
ciple that the fewer outfalls there are
the better, as each requires to be
cleaned out periodically, and If there
Is a multiplication Of them one or
the other is certain to be overworked
some time. The outfall should be
placed as far above the water level of
the stream or ditch into which it
empties as circumstances will allow,
but If there Is any chance of flood
water backing up the drain, this must
be provided against by fastening an
hinged flap over the end of the outfall
pipe.
In the selection of tiles great care
should be taken for in this as in many
other things the strength of chain
is its weakest link, and through the
flying" of main drain the greater
part of an entire drainage system may
be rendered comparatively useless.

Leaves are fine for lining the stor.
age pits.
Don't neglect to provide ample ven.
tilation for the cellar.
Crates, barrels and boxes for cellar
storage must be clean and dry.
Fruit and vegetables retain much
richer flavor If buried than If stored
in the cellar.
If there are broken panes In the
barn windows, now Is the time to put
in new ones.
Seed potatoes, like table stock.
should be stored as cold as possible
without frost.
Fab plowed land should be left
rough over winter to better catch and
hold the snow.
Don't spend dollar for small
bitches or tile on marsh until an
outlet is assured.
Put the potatoes designed for seed
purposes in barrels or bins where they
can be kept from the light.
Drainage tiles should be evenly and
well burnt, giving clear. ringing
note when clinked together.
To keep pillow from rusting coat
the moldboard with axle grease OF
with linseed oil when not in USE
Do not put any frozen potatoes away
into winter storage with unfrozen
ones, If it can possibly be avoided.
This month is good time to spray
the interior the barn with lime wash.
A spray pump used for this purpose
will DO much for cleanliness and
health.
Perhaps the reason more root crops
are not raised is that they require
more work both In their cultivation
and harvesting, and in their storing
ard feeding.
So far as conditions will admit II
is nearly always best to SOW wheat
reasonably early in order that 1t will
make good start to grow before cold
weather sets in.

Note From the Eastwood BuoIe

Somebody took the rope of the bell
in the fire engine house to use for q
clothesline, and now, when there is a
fire, the constable has to climb up
into the tower and ring the bell with
a hammer. Somebody took the ham,
mer the other day and, when Hank
Purdy's corncrib ketched fire, the con-
stable had to hurry down to Hill
ker's store for to borry hammer.
Hilliker had lent his hammer to Dea-
con Renfrew, who lives four miles out
in the country, and by the time the
constable had got there and hunted
around in the barn for the hammer
and got back to the engine house, the
angry elements had done their worst
and Hanks corncrib was a mass of
smoldering ruins.-Judge's Library.

AN EFFECTIVE HOME MADE
KIDNEY AND BACKACHE CURE
Easily Prepared Medicine Which Is
Said to Regulate the Kidneys
and End Backache.

To mako uy enough of the "Dande-
lion Mixture" which is claimed to be
a prompt cure for Backache and Kid
ney and Bladder trouble, get from any
good Prescription Pharmacist one-half
ounce fluid extract Dandelion; one
ounce Kargon Compound and three
ounces Compound Syrup Of Sarsapa-
rilla. Shake we'll in bottle and take
in teaspoonful doses after each meal
and again at bedtime.
Those who have tried it say it acts
gently but thoroughly on the Kidneys
and entire urinary system, relieving
the most severe Backache at once.
A wellknown medical authority rec
ommends the prescription to be taken
the moment you suspect any Kidney,
Bladder or Urinary disorder or feel
constant dull Backache, or II the urine
Is thick, cloudy, offensive or full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by scalding sensation: or for
too frequent urination during the
night.
This is real harmless vegetable
mixture which could not cause injury
to anyone and the relief which is said
to Immediately follow its use is rev.
elatiou to men and women who suffer
from Backache, Kidney trouble or any
form Of Urinary disorder.
This is surely worth trying, as 1t is
easily mixed at home or any druggist
will do 1t for you. and doesn't cost
much.

Million Bullets a Minute

The principal use OF the new gun, ac-
cording TO the inventors claims, will be
for operating against airships, and as
there Is no recoil he says, the gun can
be pointed toward any point OF the COM
pass.
h,r, Bangerter says that the standard
model will be mounted on an automo-
bue chassis. with a motor OF 100 horse
power, and encased with armor plates.
while two men inside run IT, The power OF
,Ae motor will be used to operate the
gun.
The power employed In operating the
gun is a secret, and. as the device has
not been patented, the inventor refused
10 show any of ,..e working parts He
explained that the reason for the alb
sence OF recoil was that the bullet started
slowly somewhere in the interior of the
gun and the velocity was steadily in
creased; When asked n the gun was
not worked by centrifugal force he said
II was not. Bullets are poured into two
hoppers at either side Of the machine and
forced into the gun by two plunRers
He also said that the rlfled barrel or
the standard model with conical bullets
would probably reuuce the number fired
in a minute. but that he would 10 able

there would be no danger of heating tne
apparatus.
