CORNCOBs AN INDUSTRY.
Missouri Makes Pipes Worth $780,
600 a Year.

Millions of corncobs discarded by
farmers are usually turned into an
available and useful commodity
worth north more than 100000 by
six factories of Missouri. The indus
trv is one peculiar to Missouri. The
commodity is the corncob pipe. The
factories produced 28,171,872 pipes
in 1912.
Shipments were made to Canada,
Europe. Asia, South America, Africa
Australia and New Zealand, besides
the large number sent into every
state in the union. Not less than
100000 corncobs were utilized for
the output of 28,171,872 pipes al
lowing two bowls to each cob and
figuring for those which were wasted
in the process of manufacture.
The cobs used by pipe factories
were not the largest obtainable. AL
lowing 100 to the bushel it took
10000 bushels of cobs. 1t took
$50 men and ~ women to make the
pipes. They were paid 55,406.
The raw material put into the
pipes cost S281,361, half of which
went to the farmers for corncobs.
The industry represents an invest
ment of $28O,344.

ALBANIAN HAS TURNED CHINAhAN
Foreswore Stars and Stripes in Favor
of the Yellow Dragon.

Daniel L. WEIGH of Atlanta, home
from China, tells a curious story OF
how he turned Chinaman and became
naturalized at Fuchang. He said ne
was buying and selling Oriental rugs,
and in order to avoid the unpleasant
ness of being killed by wild tribes OF
Mongols he was forced to foreswear
the Stars and Stripes in favor of the
yellow dragon. After that he had no
more trouble. Mr.. WEIGH operates
a number of caravans into the for
hidden land of Tibet, and his ad-
ventures would fill a book.

CONCRETE ON THE FARM
Used FOR BARNS, SILOS, GEL
LARS AND HEN HOUSES.
Farmers Are Discarding the Board
Pile, Saw and Hammer in the
Erection OF OuthOuseS.


Erection CT OuthOuses.
Not long ago the farmer hardly
knew what concrete was. Now ne
builds barns, silos, henhouses. cellars
and bridges of it.
Where some years ago the farmer
nsed a nile of old boards, 4 saw anc
a hammer to build his hen coop, MS
g ate most and his water trough, ne
often now takes part of bag OF &C.
ment. mikes it with sand and gravel,
and adapts concrete to his purposes
Today he has many appliances
about the farm that are neat, that
are sanitary and that last forever.
This change started with silos and
fence posts and there is no end to
the uses to which the nandy-man-
about-the-house can put the versatile
machine. Out on a farm in Illinois,
where an acetylene generator sup
plies gaslight to the farm mouse, one
man built a sort of cyclone cellar Tor
the plant. Owing 10 the danger u
explosions the ordinary cautious c1ll-
zen no longer cares to put a gas plant
IN the basement of his residence, but
if this generator shoI.l explode It
nrobably would not shatter the walls
of the little concrete house that cor
tai1s it.
Fresh water is supplied to the
chickens on another farm with the
aid of a concrete pool. 1t is long ana
wide and shallow. A pump at one
side supplies it with fresh water
This same flock of fortunate chickens
has a solid concrete house of two
rooms; one room has a concrete moor
and perches for the convenience of its
occupants, and the other room mas
floor of earth, where the chickens
can scratch about in the winter time.
The roosting room, with the con-
crete floor, can be flushed out and
kept perfectly sanitary, the Wa
ter running from it to waste out
let at one side.
When it comes to drainage on the
farm concrete steps in and helps out
the farmer. Culverts are now beng
made in sections so that, after the ex-
cavation is made and a solid concrete
foundation put in, the sides and the
arch can be added as necessity de-
mands.
The silo, the first appliance to
adapt itself to concrete, has grown
enormously in size. One of the big
gest of them is 62 feet high and has
walls that are eight inches thick
1t will hold enough ensilage to fat
ten five carloads of beef cattle. 1t
only took a month to build it and its
total cost was only $500.

TIPs FOR THE WIEE

If bright saucepans and kettles
have to be used over a smoky fire,
smearing a little grease over the
bright part will prevent the smoke
from blackening the metal. If washed
after use in hot water, the pan will
be as bright as ever.
If the disagreeable smell of frying
pervades the house examine the bot
tom of the frying and you will find it
covered with burnt fat which smells
as soon as it is hot. To prevent the
smell, besides washing the pan with
strong soda-water just after it has
