The Oxygen BIowpipe.

A recent peculiar bit of engineering
work at Netherton, England, was
made possible by new scientific ap-
pliance At the Pearson furnaces the
piston rod of large vertical blowing
engine was so bent in an accident that
it's removal from the cylinder seemed
impossible. The director of an oxy-
gen supply company was called, and
by means of the oxyhydrogen cutting
blowpipe the piston rod, seven inches
in diameter, was cut off close to the
gland of the cylinder, the operation oc-
cupying only thirty-fve minutes. The
task was very difficult one, as the
cut had to be made at considerable
height overhead, with the burning
metal dropping down and repeatedly
setting fire to the wooden stage nee

GETTING THE GRADE READY FOR STONE.
[From Good Roads Magazine, New York
same principle can he adopted in the
simple turnpiking of a road as that
which will have to be employed in the
most expensive construction that we
are called upon to build today.
The first principle to follow in every
case is to properly drain the section of
road to be improved. after which you
then take up the question of sub grade,
or foundation upon which to build
your road. l have found the best ma
terial with which to construct a sub
grade is sand or gravel. Dlsintegrated
rock, with an admiXture of light loan,
makes capital sub-grade.
Sprinkling the sand before rolling.
using light roller before using the
steam roller or tightening the roller
by relieving the boiler of one-half its
water capacity is Il great assistance in
firming the road. as the sand will not
then creep before the roller, thus max
ing the sub-grade firm. A little sub
soil placed on top of the sand is a
y
the material from being pushed ahead
of the roller. and it will make a good
sustainment for the stone or gravel.
If something is not done to make a
sandy foundation firm it will shift.
Sighting the sub-grude is sometimes
practicad by contractors. with the result
that they do not gain anything. for the
oofp hoe To in hn In,
creased expense owing to the fact that
there will be a greater shrinkage in the
stone.
The wisest contractor is the man who
will spend more time with his 10 cents
an hour help in forming the sub-grade
and thereby require less stone or gray
el and other incidental expenses. This
is often the reason why the tonnage
of stone per mile has been largely ex-
ceeded over the original estimate of
the contractor. This is very easily
demonstrated by taking the cost Of the
stone per ton. with freight, the haul
from the cars. the time consumed in
applying the stone on the road, to say
nothing about the expense of watering
and rolling required to get the road
into perfect bond-tirm and unyield-
ing.
But you will ask naturally. "ls not
the road better by reason of the fact
that more stone has been used" Not
at all. This would be true if uni
form depth of stone were on the road.
But it is an intermittent depth. In
some places there may be four inches
of stone. while in other places there
may be eight inches. The influence of
the roller is not uniform where the
sub-grade is not sufficiently hard and
firm. Wherever there is an intermit-
tent depth of stone the road will de-
velop a weakness because the pressure
of the roller on the road has not been
uniform.

states, particularly Missouri. Oregon
and Washington. To have perfect
fruit the soil and the climate condi-
lions must be Of the most favorable.
A list of what may be called the best
apples-best in 'Ssa sense or another
has been arranged. The list comprises
these varieties: The Belmont. Bethle-
mite, Bullock's Pippin, Cogswell, Early
Joe, Esopus, Spitzenburg. Full Wine,
Garden Royal, Melon. Mother, North
ern Spy, Pomme Grise, Porter, Pri-
mate, Red Canada, Summer Pearmain.
Summer Rose, Swaar. Wagner and
Westfield. To this list are added the
Baldwin and the Rhode Island Green
ing-two of the best known apples the
country over.
Other popular apples include the Gill
hfower, Vandevere, Maiden's Blush.

Sweet, Talman Sweet, Winespice, Bell
flower, Red Astrakhan, Pearmain, Au-
tumn Bough, RoXbury Russet. Sops o.
Wine, King, Twenty Ounce. Hubbard
SION and Peach Pond Sweet.
The Pippin wherever found seems to
be always well liked. But one Pippin
differs from every other. What one
state knows as Pippin another state
greets by quite different name. The
Ben Davis, for instance. so known in
the middle west, is known in New
York state as a New York Pippin.
Almost every propagator of apples
has found, if his experience and his or
chards are extensive specimens which
he thought entitled to such names as
Seek No Further, Nonesuch and Sine
Qua Non, so that if one receives an
apple bearing one of these names in
Massachusetts it may differ exceeding
, ly from one of the same name offered
to him in Wisconsin. But they are all
likely to be worth the eating if their
grower has seen fit to honor them with
such names.
The longer apples remain on the
tree, unless the weather becomes too
cold to permit their exposure, the bet
ter the favor and keeping qualities
The fruit that comes to perfection the
farthest north, as that in the Hood
river region of Oregon, appears to
have the finest keeping qualities with
out deterioration in flavor.
OF the varieties raised in the east
the winter russets keep longest with
out being put in cold storage and real
ly reach the full perfection of flavor
only late in the winter or in the early
| spring. 1t used to be considered a
marvellous and almost an impossible
thing to keep apples over from the
fall till the first summer apples ap
peared, but with methods of cold
! storage so extensively used as they
| alSF row this is easily achieved and
with far less deterioration in flavor
than might be reasonably expected.

CONVICT ROAD BUILDERS.
Inmates of Georgia Prisons Beautifying
Highways.

The roads of Swainsboro, Ga. are
fast being converted from veritable
sand beds into beautiful turnpike clay
roads. The county chain gang. which
is now about fifty strong. including
thirty felony convicts. Emanuel's quo
til of the state convicts. is doing fine
work in road building. under the su-
pervision of NJ. B. Boatright. who has
had much experience in practical road
building.
However, the people of the county,
while awakening somewhat to the
fact that they must be up and doing
in matters pertaining to roads if they
would keep apace with their neigh
boring counties, still do not show the
proper interest in the construction of
their roads, or, rather, in the keeping
up of the roads after they are built by
the chain gang. There seems to be an
idea abroad that it is the chain gangs
province to keep up the roads as well
as 10 construct them, and this idea
must be eliminated before a thorough
good road movement can be installed
and substantial improvements made
on the county's highways.

How to Temper SPRINGS.

Heat the spring to hardening col
or, taking care not to burn the metal
and quench in oil. AS soon as the
metal has cooled so it does not ''siz-
zle" put the spring back into the fire
and keep it there just long enough for
the oil to burn off. Then quench in
water.
This method is applicable to all
springs and especially small fat
springs. This is a simple method and
one to be depended upon and can be
done anywhere with a stove fire and a
little oil.-Popular Mechanics.

HOMES FOR POULTRY.
The Open Front Type That Gives Ven.
tiIation Now Popular.


A. few years ago the open front poul-
try house was practically unknown.
The tendency at that time was to con-
struct houses that were very tight and
ventilated by the opening of windows
and in many instances by means of
fiues and cupolas. This type of house,
as rule, was more or less damp, and
it did not take many years for pro-
gresSive men to realize that damp
houses meant cold houses and an
abundance of disease. The result has
been gradual increase of the amount
of fresh air in the house and less at
tention given to warmth until today
we have what is known as the open or
cloth front house. One can still find.
however, many types of poultry houses.
but the open front house is fast be-
coming the standard for every climate.
The beneficial effects of dry house,
with an abundance of fresh air, has
been very forcibly demonstrated by
several experiment stations. Professor

A gallon of denatured alcohol can
be made to do the same amount Of
work in an engine as gallon Of gas

produce smoke and is less liable to
yield obnoxious odors, but the lower
price Of gasoline makes it the cheaper

are given in bulletin 392 of the United
States geological survey. R. NJ. Strong,
the author of the bulletin, briefly de-
scribes the tests, but discusses the
more important results at some length.
The tests formed part Of the investiga-
ton Of fuels now being carried on by
the survey. To determine the relative
efficiency and economy of gasoline it
was compared with denatured alco-
hol. In this comparison not only the
heating values Of the two fuels, but
their adaptability to engine use and

OPEN FRONT POULTRY HOUSE.

Graham of the Kansas Agricultural
college states that after careful tests
made with warmed buildings, with
double wall houses having curtains be-
fore the perches and six feet away
next to the wire netting, he has found
that the one ply board houses with
netted fronts have given better results
both as to the number of eggs pro-
duced in winter and the fertility and
vigor of germs.
The open front house can be modi-
fed to meet a wide range Of climate
In the northern states the house is
generally equipped with a curtain
front and hooded roost. These curtains
are dropped at night to insure warm
er house while the fowls are inactive.
The open front shed roof house
shown in the cut is a type of the con-
tinuous house. 1t is 100 feet long, 20
feet wide. feet high in front and
feet in the rear. 1t is divided into
five pens 20 by 20 feet, with solid
board. partitions between each pen.
One bird is allowed to every four
square feet of space.
The roost is provided with. cloth
curtain. which is dropped on very
cold nights. Two small holes with
sliding doors are used to ventilate the
roost when the curtain is down. The
floor consists of layer of sheathing,
then a layer of building paper and
flooring. The outside of the studs on
the ends and back is first covered
with layer of sheathing. then a layer
of building paper and novelty siding.
The inside of the studs. with the eX-
ception of the hooded roost. is entire
ly open. The nests are placed on the
end walls and partitions. The entire
building rests on brick piers about
two feet from the ground. and each
pen is equipped with a trapdoor,
which allows the hen to go down and
wallow in the dirt under the house.
On many farms where poultry is car
ried Oh as an adjunct to the other
farm crops is found variety of small
stationary houses. There are several
advantages in favor of the small sta
tionary house. Where land is restrict
ed it is possible to provide a sys-
TEN of cultivation where the houses
are small and set far enough apart to
permit of double yards. These yards
can be cropped alternately and thus do
away with the danger of tainted soil.

impending DR.. Coley finished the op-
GRAFTON for hernia. The youngster lay
on the table. as calmly as if he were
in his own bed. looking at the physi-
clan with big unwinking eyes, feeling
nothing. though there was an incision
several inches long in the region of his
abdomen.
Professor Jonnesco said that not one
of the patients had felt any pain. and
that was their own testimony. Some
skeptics present declared that it re-
mained to be seen whether stovaine
had any effect on the spinal cord,
which would take several months to
determine. Professor Jonnesco was
asked about these possible after eff
fects, and he said there would be none.
In an operation for appendicitis
where stovaine had been injected the
patient laughed and talked with the
doctors. After the incision had been
made and the appendix found the sur

ton. As he explains his method there
