Lurnberman's SIanu,

No other industry, perhaps, furnishes
70 many original, peculiar and inter.
esting words and phrases of a technl'
cal-cum-slangy nature as the lumber
industry Of Canada. Timber tracts,
says Canada, are divided into limits"
or births" The growing timber on a
tract is a stand" and the contents Of a
stand" are measured in "feet"-a
foot" being a board one foot square
by one inch thick and not a cubic foot.
To make a survey of a stand of timber
is TO cruise it, the man who does the
work is a cruiser" and his report
thereon is a cruise" Trees are
failed" and the man who falls
them is a sawyer" A man who
works in a lumber camp is known as
a 'lumberjack" or "shanty man."
When going up to camp he speaks OF
going up to the shanties." Timber
tracts that have suffered from the Ill
effects OF forest fires are said to be
'brooly.' which Is, of course, a cor.
ruption of "brule" (burnt).

Tho oIowworm.

The glowworm is not q worm, but a
species Of beetle, to which the COM
mon freely or lightning bug is closely
related. The true glowworm is the
female and is without wings. Its
short legs and long body give it a
vermiform appearance. and It can
withdraw Its triangular head into its
neck. The adult insect feeds but lit
tie. Indeed. there is reason to sup
pose that the adult male does not feed
ut all. Tie larva, on the other hand,
is c%arnivorous and devours small mol
luscs. either dead or alive. The light
given out by the glowworm comes
from a yellowish substance located
on the underside of the abdomen.
Though this light appears to glow

Here mas patience became ex-

hustled down to darkness, but he got
something that kept him warm down

All Of which leads up to the point
that an apple cellar should be the
tidiest and sweetest corner of the
house.
Nothing else should ever be stored
in 1t. Its walls should at least be
twenty inches thick, and it should have
abundant windows to be kept open all
summer to draft Of air and kept en-
tirely free OF any decay. There should
be no moldy boards o any smell of
mildew; in other words. the air should
be fit to breathe.
When the apples are stored the draft
should be stopped, and when steady
cold sets In you should shut the eel
lar tight, and let 1t stay closed until
May. You can place such a cellar as
this conveniently under part of your
barn, possibly, or under your carriage

If barrels are used set them up some

OF course every apple grown on the
farm will not be worth putting down
cellar, but the lower qualities are
worth going into cider If they could
be so thoroughly pressed as to extract
all the sugar instead of leaving a big
proportion of it in the pomace.

binary hand mills. But with an eighty
ton hydraulic press / have been able TO
recover four gallons Of Juice from fifty
pounds of fruit, double the quantity /
could recover with the hand mills, and
yet l left in the pulp about II per cent
Of the juice" says Professor w. B.
Atwood Of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture.
Practically % per cen Of the total
weight Of apples went out in pomace,
or from 4 to 8 per cent of the sugar.
With the best power mills under Il
most efficient working system it is GER
tain that practically 5 per cent Of sug-
ar is thrown out in the pomace.
""There are something like 100000
bushels of apples worked up every
crop year in New York state alone for
byproducts. II we assume that 25
per cent Of this fruit will be left
as pomace we will have about 60,OO0,-
600 pounds of pomace, which will con-
tain 100000 pounds Of sugar, or 1900
tons. Data collected for 1909 indicate
that this quantity of pomace is pro-
duced and that 5 per cent Of this
pomace is sugar.
Il am not able to tell how much OF
this pomace is wholly or partially
lost, nor can | tell precisely how to
recover all the sugar it contains, as
this investigation hassjust been begun,
but / want to emphasize this idea, that
this 1900 tons OF sugar, IL recovered,
would make 10000 900 gallons Of vine
gar, which would go a long way toward
paying the expense OF managing the
orchard. One of the largest manufac-
turers of vinegar In the state told me
recently that he expected pure cider
vinegar to go to 30 cents wholesale
in the next two years.
I'm regard to the large amount OF
sugar that goes out in the pomace as
waste, I have never yet seer a manu-
facturer or a farmer who handled this
pomace so as to recover nearly all
the sugar left in II. Thousands of tons
OF pomace are thrown out without the
slightest attempt being made to re-
cover the sugar. Some people put 1t
back on the soil, but It ought not to
be put on the soil at all until well
rotted.
1T has been wen established that 1t
can be successfully used for cattle food.
In France and England 1t Is fed very
successfully. Vermont and Massa-
chusetts experiment stations have also

q here can be no greater
~ mistake that a business
man can make than to
be mean in business. Every
body has heard the proverb
of penny wise and pound fool
ish. A liberal expenditure in
the way of business is always
sure to be a capital invest
ment. There are people in
the world who are short-sight-
ed enough to believe that their
interest can be best promo
ted by grasping and clinging
to all they can get, and never
letting a cent slip through
their fingers. AS a general
thing, it will be found, other
things being equal, that he
who is most liberal is most
successful in business. Of
course we do not mean it to
be inferred that a man should
he prodigal in his expendi-
lures; but that he should show
his customers, if he is a ira
der, or those whom he may
be doing any kind of business
with, that IN all his business
transactions, as we'll as social
relations, he acknowledges
the everlasting fact that there
can be no permanent prosper
lty or good feeling in a COM
munity where benefits are not
