Daylight at All Hours.

DR.. Herbert e. Ives OF London has
invented daylight. he says. Scientific
men have worked for years trying to
accomplish this task. Doctor Ives has
been at work for at least dozen, and
he asserts he has finally produced a
light which Is in every way equal to
sunshine. The scientist has designed
powerful incandescent lamp with
special mantle, which is so placed In
cabinet he has designed that lts
rays are Immediately beneath refieo-
tor. This is made of metal, and the
light is forced downward through
series of delicately colored screens,
so arranged that the average rays
which are not found in the north light
are eliminated, and the effect, It Is
said, is that of perfect harmony OF
light similar in every way to the rays

kill it. To cover an acre, empty a
hundred pound sack of graduated
iron sulphate (costs $11 per toni into
a fifty-two gallon barrel and fill with
water; stir vigorously for a few min
utes until the sulphate is in solution.
The solution can be put In a sprayer
tank and used Immediately or kept un.
til the desired time for using.
Solution is not poisonous.
Spray on a clear day. II rain fol-

spray again.
Daisies, cockle-burr bind weed, rag
weed, sheep sorrel, yellow dock and
many other weed were partially or
wholly eradicated frcm the fields
where the tests were made for the ex-
termination of mustard.
The grain fields should be sprayed
when the mustard plants are In the
third leaf or before the plants are in
blossom in order TO have the spray do
the most effective work.

GOOD PLANS FOR
CONCRETE BUILDINGS
First Consideration Is to Deter
mine Proper Proportion of
Materials Needed.

CBy o. p. PENNOCK, Colorado Agricul-
tural CollegeD
The first thing to consider in any
concrete structure is the proper pro-
portion of materials A simple meth
cd for determining the amounts nee
essary, is to apply the water meas
urement."
Take a washtub and a small buck
ct and determine the number of buck
cts of sand necessary to fill or near
ly fill the tub. Next determine the
number of buckets of water that are
necessary to entirely fill the voids in
sand, being careful in this measure
ment to bring the water just TO the
surface of the sand. The number of
buckets of water determines the
amount of cement for the amount Of
sand measured. Next measure the
broken stone or gravel into the tub
the same as the sand in the first step.
apply the water measurement, and
this gives the amount OF mixture OF
sand and cement necessary for the
amount of broken stone used.
For example: Suppose we put IS
buckets OF sand into the tub and II
takes six buckets of water to fill the
voids, then the proportion OF cement
to sand is six to eighteen, or one to
three. Again, we put fifteen buckets
OF broken stone into the tub and find
that It takes nine buckets of water to
fill the voids, then the proportion of
sand to broken stone is nine TO fifteen
or three to FIVE. Our total mixture,
therefore, would consist OF one part
cement, three parts sand and five
parts broken stone.

other plants of this nature, they will
make a much earlier start in the

winter.
Leave the mulch on until all danger
of freezing is over in the spring, but
do not remove on a bright, sunshiny
day.
The cold frame is a great thing for
getting an early start with vegetables
in the spring. They should be placed
in a sunny spot in the garden, well
protected from the north wind, and
filled with loose soil under-laid with
about four inches Of half rotted ma
nure.
Sow the seeds of lettuce, radishes
and other vegetables of this kind in
the fall and cover very lightly with
earth. Over this, place a deep cover
of litter and lay it on thick enough to
keep out the frost
Next spring you will be surprised
to see these vegetables coming up
through the ground when you take off
the mulch. They will have from one
to two weeks start over those start
ed in the spring.
Come to think Of it, this is pretty
near the way nature takes care of
seeds in winter. They fall from the
plant, bury themselves in the soil and
the wind covers them with a mulch OF
leaves and grass.
