TIMELY HINTS
FOR FARMERS
Flaxseed For SkimmiIk Calves.

I We have found that faxseed is the
best substitute that can be used to re-
place butter fat removed by the cream
separator. writes III. E. Mccartney in
Farm and Fireside. FlaXseed has all
the qualities demanded of such sub
stitute 1t is high in oil or fat. 1t is
very palatable. and its effect on the
calfs digestive system is beneficial.
To prepare fiaxseed for this use is
very simple process. Simply boil it in
about four times it's bulk in water
The boiling is to be continued until the
whole seeds have burst, after which
1t will be jellylike mass. Enough
may be prepared at one time to last
for several days, as it is not liable to
spoil.
About a half teacupful should be fed
to each calf. This is measured out and
mixed with the calf's allowance of
milk Just before feeding time. Flax
seed fed in this way makes a wonder
full difference in the growth and ap-
pearance of the skimmilk calf How
ever. it will not entirely take the
place of the butter fat. The skimmilk
calf even at its best will not grow as
rapidly or mature as early as the one
that suckles it's dam, yet in nearly al
cases it is more profitable to milk the
cow and raise the calf by hand.

SIZE OF WHALES.
Length of the Biggest Ones and the
Height They Can Spout.

length of the Biggest Ones and the
Height They Can Spout
a government official who has made
special study of whales states that
the average length of a full grown
sulphur bottom whale is just under
eighty feet. This estimate disregards
the exaggerated reports sometimes
spread by sailors and is based on
actual measurements of many indi-
vidual specimens. There seem to be
credible accounts OF whales reaching
a length of from eighty-five to ninety
five feet, but the authority quoted has
never seen any of that size.
Whales appear to grow with great
rapidity, the length of yearlings being
estimated at from thirty to thirty-five
feet
How high can whales spout? Photo
graphs taken by the scientist referred
to give a means of measuring with
some accuracy the height to which the
water Is thrown. This appears to be
much less than it has often been sun
posed to be. 1t is claimed that even
the great sulphur bottom whale on the
average spouts to a height of only
fourteen feet, although occasionally
the height may be as much as twenty
feet.-Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

A Just Beast.

In the days when the late archbish.
op OF Canterbury, DR.. Frederick Tenn.
pie, was master of Rugby he SEN
fenced to expulsion boy who was in
nocent of the offense charged against
him. but who could not clear himself
without exposing the real offender.
The lad made up his mind to bear the
punishment and wrote to his father
saying that he was sure his family
would rather have him expelled than
know him to be a sneak. The father
promptly sent the letter to DIR. Tenn
pie, calling attention to a postscript in
which the boy said he wished the doc
tor to understand the matter and add
ed, Temple is a beast, but he is a
just beast" 1t is on record that Tenn
pie did understand, and the boy was
not expelled. DR.. Temple, grim old
man that he was, was always proud
of the title "a just beast"

FALLING coc0ANUTs.
Dew Makes Most of Them Drop From
the Trees at Night.

I'll the tropics when the cocoanut is
wanted for planting" said an importer
Of the fruit. the nuts are picked up
when they fall from the tree where
they have hung for about fourteen
months in ripening. 1t is fact not
generally known that a majority OF
the nuts drop at night, which probably
accounts for the small loss of life by
cocoanuts falling upon the heads OIL
the natives.
1.-THE action of the heavy dew at
night loosens the seal with which ma
ture has provided the nut and allows
il TO fall. The nuts wanted for plant
ing are either gathered into heaps or
placed under sheds, where they are
allowed to sprout before planting in
order that good, healthy nuts may be
selected. thus avoiding the possibility
of planting blind nuts that will not
sprout. in which case much time would
be lost in starting the cocOanut walks.
as the orchards are called. When holes
are dug, about three feet deep and
twenty feet apart, the nut is carefully
placed therein and covered with about
foot of soil The hole is filled as the
sprout grows until the latter reaches
the surface. then it is left to itself, re
duiring no further attention. Should
the place where the cocoanut is planted
be any great distance from the sea
shore a quantity of salt is placed IL
the hole. The plant will grow In lux
uriance. However. but a short distance
from the shore, nearness to salt water

MAKING STEAM WORK.
Unfortunate inventors Who Annotated
James Watt.


James Watt took out a patent on his
steam engine in 1863. but us far back
as 1913 there was Il captain in Spain
who constructed a vessel of 200 tons
and propelled il at Barcelona in the
presence of the Emperor Charles V.
and his court by an engine, the con-
struction of which he kept a secret.
But an old document says that in it
was a monster caldron Of water and
that there were two movable wheels
on the outside of the vessel. The en-
peror was satisfied with its operation,
but the treasurer of the kingdom OBJ
jected to it. and so no encoura cement
was given to the enterprise. The poor
inventor, whose name was BlaScO de
Guerrero, wearied and disguised at the
want of patronage, took the engine out
Of the vessel, and the secret of the
machine was buried in his grave.
