Militia Draws $4,000 in Strike Zone

militia Draws $4,000 in Strike Zone.
Already 1t has cost the state of
Michigan $4,000 to maintain the
state troops In the copper country,
and 1t Is expected that the expense
viii exceed 100000 before all the
militiamen are withdrawn.
Auditor General Fuller says that
II Is impossible to tell the exact
amount that has been expended as
the detailed statements from the
military board have not been re-
ceived as yet. However, Fuller has
sent $4,000 from the general fund
OF the state treasury to the military
authorities In the copper country.
Had 1t not been for the fact that
the last legislature gave immediate
effect to an act which provided that
the cost OF calling out state troops
should be charged against the gen.
erai fund Of the state, Houghton
county would have had to stand the
expense.
State officials are predicting that
the treasury will be empty before the
first of the year and that II will be
necessary to borrow money In order
to pay remaining expenses
The big state tax and the approach
Ing shortage in the general fund is
charged to former Governor Osborn,
who sliced appropriations to such an
extent two years ago that It was
necessary to. give the various state
institutions twice as much this year.

Fruit Frappe With Nuts.

Almost every woman nowadays has
her own special frappe combination,
with which she delights to mystify
her guests. Into the bottom of the
frappe glass put generous spoonful
Of preserved strawberries, on top of
the berries come the Ice cream, vanilla
in this case, then a spoonful of
whipped cream, and on top of the
cream grating of English walnuts.
All sorts Of fruit combinations are
used as foundation for the frappes,
and the covering for the whipped
cream is variously cocoa, grated
macaroons, chopped nuts, 4 sprinkle
Of cinnamon or candied rose leaves.
Pretty little frappe glasses in the
American pressed ware, light and
dainty, can now be purchased as low
as 80 Cents dozen. In serving, each
glass Ia set on pretty china plate
with a little dolly between the glass
and the plate. A spoon. of course,
goes with 1t.

POLISHED FLOOR NEEDS CARE
Methods by Which II May Be Made
to Last Long and Always Appear
at Its Best

The first step In polishing soft
wood floor is to see that 1t is perfect
ly smooth and clean. 1t 1t has been
already painted or vanished the
stains should be removed with strong
ammonia and thorough scraping,
when all cracks and dents should be
closed with putty and filler" applied
all over. This can be purchased at
most oil and varnish shops, and should
either be mixed with a little color or
sufficient quantity of floor stain
should be added. The filler should be
put on with fiat brush or piece Of
cloth and worked in one direction
with the grain Of the wood, while on
completion Of the process the room
should be closed for "a hours. At the
END OF that time the boards should be
rubbed until they shine, with long
handled, heavy weighted broom, over
which a piece of carpet has been
lacked, and this process may be re-
peated ad libitum. Finally the floor
may be polished with boiled linseed
oil and turpentine. this mixture being
rubbed we'll in with a cloth and then
ieft for an hour or two to dry, after
which 1t must be again polished with
the weighted brush.
instead of final touch of this de-
scription, the floor may be finished
with coat Of varnish or shellac or
with some prepared hardwood treat
ment' both of which should be put on
evenly and thinly with weighted
brush or with an old piece of carpet.
In order to keep the floor at its
pest after the polishing process has
peen completed, 1t should never be
washed with water, but after all the
DUST has been removed crude petro-
ieum should be rubbed in and left to
dry.

Make Your Own Gas.

Acetylene gives pure white light,
in which all articles show in their true
colors the same as in the sunlight, and
burns in burners consuming about half
foot of gas per hour, each burner
giving forth some 20 candle power
light. The gas is obtained by adding
water to calcium carbide, which is OBJ
tained by fusing together ground coke
and lime.
The use of gasoline gas has become
quite common for small to medium
sized plants. 1t is mixture of gaso-
line vapor and air, the pure vapor be-
ing impractical to burn on account Of
high pressure being required. While
the gasoline is considered somewhat
dangerous to handle, neglect and care
lessness are large factor in the mat
ter and common carefulness will rem
der the gasoline safe to handle. There
are different grades of gasoline for
sale, and that used for gas machines
should have a specific gravity of Sc
for summer use and 88 for winter.
Many people who live outside the
limits of the gas companies lines do
not use gas, says Farm and Home, be-
cause they fail to realize how cheaply
the acetylene or gasoline machines can
be installed and at how small an ex-
pense they operate as compared with
other forms of lighting and cooking.
The experiment once tried, they are
surprised to find out that it is just as
practical as independent water works
or steam or hot water heating. The
party who has one of these individual
gas plants is entirely independent,
running his apparatus when and how
he pleases.

DISARMS THE ENEMY
PERHAPS IT WOULD BE MORE
CORRECT TO SAY "DIS-cLAWs."
Anyway, New Jersey Farmer Devised
q Scheme Which Resulted In Dis
comfiture to the Spoilers of
His Hen Roosts.

Benjamin Groner, a farmer In the
Birds Eye Hollow neighborhood, just
over the New Jersey line from Gosh.
en-, In studying the habits of hawks
noted that those prowling and snoop-
ing birds always perched on the
branch of some tree or on high
fence or other good point for observa-
tion near poultry yard and from
there took comprehensive view OF
the surroundings and their possibili-
ties before swooping down on the con-
tents of the yard. That set Farmer
Groner to thinking, and he thought to
such purpose that 1t resulted in his de-
vising contrivance which he believed
would be the ruination of every hawk
that came nosing about his premises.
He had sythe blade made of the
best steel he could procure. He ground
and whetted the edge of the blade un-
I'll 1t was as keen as keen could be.
Then he fastened the butt end of the
blade with bolts tight to high pole
near the top, edge up, and at ar angle
OF 45 degrees. The pole he then set
In the ground. few rods from his
poultry yard at the edge of wood lot.
In the afternoon of the day he set
the trap hawk came sailing along
over the tops Of the trees. Farmer
Groner was in his barn and saw it and
watched its manoeuvers.
The big bird circled about few
times and then dropped down on the
outstretched scythe blade, which ap.
peared as a convenient point Of OBJ.
servation.
The instant the hawk lit 1t began to
slide down the smooth slant Of the
blade and the razorlike edge sliced its
claws off as quickly and as neatly as
meat cutter slices smoked beef. The
bird futtered to the ground, but as
Its wings were still at Its command 1t
flew away. And it has never come
back to Farmer Groner's place again.
Going out to the trap pole and
nnding the talons of the crippled
hawk, Farmer Groner knew that his
oNOi luo ways Ol udWkS
had resulted in successful demon
stration Of the conclusion he had
come to, and next morning he dis
covered that he had builded even
wiser than he knew, for he found
couple of sets Of owl toes on the
ground beneath the scythe blade. He
had not calculated on owls, but hold
Ing to the old fashioned belief that
those nocturnal providers were habi-
tual robbers Of hen roosts, he gloat.
ingly accepted the evidence Of the eff.
f1cacy Of his trap as an owl dis
courager.
Ever since that installing of the
scythe trap for business on the Groner
farm 1t has been kept on duty, and
the frequent findings of hawk and owl
claws scattered beneath 1t and the
noticeable increase in his poultry flock
are incontrovertible proof to Farmer
Groner that 1t is doing the work 1t
was planned to do. An owl or hawk
that lights on that terrible perch Is
forever untitled for stealing chickens,
for both birds capture their prey with
their claws.

CAPACITY OF AVERAGE sILO
Easy Matter to Determine Number Of
Cubic Feet Of EnsiIase Required
to Feed Cows.

(By A. D. WILSON. Superintendent Ex-
tension Division. University Farm, St.
Paul. Mimi
The amount Of silage required and
the size Of silo needed to hold 1t can
be quite closely calculated, provided
the number and kind of animals to
be fed from 1t are known before
building.
An average cow or beef animal
may be fed about 35 pounds of silage
per day and the usual period during
which silage is used in this latitude
VIII be about 210 days. Large ami.
mails or those that are being fattened
may consume considerably more than
35 pounds per day, but this has been
found fair average.
In silo of ordinary depth, the
average weight of the silage is about
40 pounds per cubic foot. Near the
top of the silo, however, where the
pressure is not great, 1t will weigh
only 25 pounds per cubic foot, while
at the bottom Of 35-foot silo is may
weigh go pounds. Taking these aver
ages, If cow eats 35 pounds of en-.
silage in day, she will eat 35-40, or
B of a cubic foot per day, and with
this as a basis 1t is easy to determine
the number of cubic feet of ensilage
required to feed COW or any number
OF COWS throughout the season. The
diameter of the silo must be such
that the stock on hand can use one
or two inches of silage off the ton
each day during the winter and at
least three inches per day when sum-
mer feeding Of silage is to be prac.
ticed. This is necessary to keep the
silage from spelling.
A silo 10 feet in diameter is adapt.
ed to feeding 10 mature cattle. One
IL feet In diameter will feed Is head,
and one IA feet in diameter will meet
the needs of twenty head; but II
there are 80 or more cows to feed.
a 16-foot silo should be erected. These
silos should be 30 or 40 feet, or even
more in height.

Ornaments Last LONGEST,

Ornaments last longer than any
thing else that man makes. There are
brooches and necklaces In museums
more than 40 centuries old. Monu-
ments. perhaps, stand second, and
houses third. The life Of furniture is
shorter still. There is very little fur.
niture in England which dates be.
yond the year 1900. Pictures last long
81 than furniture, and there are paint
lngs still In fair condition which have
weathered six centuries OF life.

half with vanilla Ice cream, packing

halves together tightly, thus forcing
the cream up into the fruit, causing
the melon Juice to mingle with the
cream. When ready to serve. knife

fruit and slices the cream.

In the burrows Of this ant one may
find a rather mixed and varied popu-
lation. consisting Of the eggs, larvae,
pupae, males, females and workers of
the ants themselves, together with the
various species of root-lice harbored
by them and certain kinds of mites
which share its underground habita-
tions on terms of mutual federation, II
not active friendship. In clover fields
1t Is very likely to have in its nests
many mealy-bugs of species which
infest the roots Of the clover plant,
and these 1t treats as it does the root
lice OF the corn plant-seizing them
and carrying them away when its nest
is disturbed, just as 1t hurries out of
sight with its own maggotAke larvae,
Its egg-like pupae, and its minute,
spherical white eggs.

SickrOOm Screen.

A screen in the sickroom is almost
indispensable, for it is needed to keep
light from the patients eyes, to guard
the bed from drafts, or shut out the
sight of medicine bottles and 80 forth.
An excellent sanitary screen is made
by tacking white oilcloth on to a
frame, then painting on in oil pretty
scene, as birds or butterflies. These
screens can be washed as often as
necessary.
