Cluarmakind at Home.

In the beginning of the industry in
this country cigarmaking was carried
on by women as household manufac-
ture. Trumbul1, in his memorial His
tory of Hartford County, Conn.," says
that in the early years Of the century
nearly the whole Connecticut tobacco
crop was worked into cigars by the
female members of the family of the
grower.

three-quarters inches in diameter
at the breech and two and seven
e1ghths inches at the muzzle end
OF the gun. The grooves in the
steel jacket have full access to the
atmosphere at the breech, thus
forming series of inclosed air
ducts running the entire length OF
the barrel. Each time the gun is
nred the ejector action of the dis,
charge blast sucks through these
ducts, from the rear, a draft of air
which serves to carry off the heat
transmitted to the jacket from the
barrel. The cooling is automatic
in action, without the use of water
or other cooling liquid and without
mechanism or moving parts. AS
aluminium has six times the heat
conductivity Of steel and but one
third it's weight, this very effective
method Of cooling the gun adds
but a few pounds to the total
weight carried.
Another novel feature which diff
ferentiates the Lewis gun from all
other gas-operated guns is the
small tnclosed operating spring
which is located near the trigger
piece at the breech far removed
from all injurious heat effects The

AdU1ce
From
The
Poultry
Doctor

dIu inquiry COM
mittee:
THE Poultry Club council has an
pointed committee to go into the
question of the possibility of interna-
tional standards, and to collect infor-
nation. The council has done me the
honor of electing me honorable secre-
tary OF this committee, and | have
much pleasure of asking your kind as
sistance. We want to get, in one list
the main points of difference between
the English and otherd standards and
1t would be of immense service to us if
you could briefly indicate, not for pub
lication, but for the information of the
council the various details in the
standard Of the breed your club rep
resents.
"(a) Which are the essential points?
"(b) Which might be modified land
in what directory If the English stand
ard was revised?
8 "(c) Which might be regarded as non
essential-that is to say, which might
form the basis of a discussion with the
representatives of other countries
when. and If. the question of interna-
tional standards moves forward an
| other stage?
1T is obvious that no real progress
can be made without the hearty CO.
operation of specialist clubs, such as
informed as to any suggestion which
reaches US affecting your breed"
For years a demand has been grow
ing for identical standards to govern
the breed and exhibition points of the
recognized breeds and varieties of do
nestle neutrality-suspicious. turkeys,
ducks and geese. This demand has
been especially strong of late among
English speaking people-among far
sighted poultry culturists in the United
States, Canada England, Ireland,
Wales. Australia, New Zealand, Brit
ish South Africa, etc. Americans often
have advocated such a standard for the
breeds and varieties that are so de-
seryedly popular on both sides of the
Atlantic-around the world, in fact
and Canadians no doubt would well
come an improved condition in this re-
spect.
In view Of the step that now has been
taken by the Poultry Club of England
compiler and publisher of the English
Standards of Poultry, it is evident that
the American Poultry association
should appoint committee to conduct
similar inquiry in the United States
and Canada, a committee that will be
authorized to cooperate with this Eng
lish committee, within practical limits
The problem is a broad one and Is not
without difficulties, but this should not
deter American and Canadian poultry
men from taking an active Interest
with the object of doing anything that
can be done in this direction for the
further world wide development of
what Is destined to be the worlds
greatest live stock industry
