THE DWELLING.

The DWELLING.
I may not dwell where olives shake
Their silver DER the silver lake,
Nor where the citron sheds it's snow
At dawning or at sunset glow,
And nightingales their music make!
1 may not dwell where palm trees set
Against the sky their silhouette,
Nor where the silences are filled
With affairs cunningly distilled
of blended rose and mignonette!
What matters it where'er it be
My dwelling lies, by land or sea,
If, while the days of life slip past
Toward the great ocean vague and
vast,
may dwell with Memory!

The special for the young people for
1914 is the Laredo Seminary at Lar
edo, Texas. Amount to be raised $1O,.
600. 1t is advised that Auxiliaries
take the support of one teacher per
month. The auxiliary can select the
teacher and fix the sum for one, two,
or three months salary as the object
for which you are to work. The beauty
of this plan lies in the assurance that
the missionary teachers will be upheld
by the special prayers of the young
people during the period when they
are carried by the different auxilaries.
1t is unjust to judge the value and
work of missions by a handful of mis-
fits. 1t is time to drop once and for
all that sentimental regard for mis-
sions and missionaries which is be-
lifting to the missionary cause 1t is
always harmful and unfair to pretend
that the ordinary is the extraordinary.
If awhile since the missionary's voca-
ton was an extraordinary one, it is no
longer so. 1t is now simply a normal
part of religious duty and should be
accepted and recognized as such.

OVERHEATING CYLINDERS.
lste Ignition and Delayed Exhaust
Causes Of Trouble.

NduSSo " sTOOOIC.
One of the common causes of special
heating, or rather Overheating. of the
gas or gasoline engine is late ignition.
says e. w. ~IOngenecker in Black
smith and Wheelwright. This is prob
ably more noticeable in automobiles
than in stationary engines. The latter
are usually equipped with oiling ap-
paratus that requires a large body of
water. while Tt. former depend on a
radiating system carrying only a small
supply Of water.
Late ignition causes the fuel to burn
slowly. and it continues to burn
throughout the entire power stroke of
the piston. thereby imparting a much
greater portion of its heat to the cyiin
der walls than if the ignition occurs
at the proper time Under high com
preston ignition results in quick cOm
buStion of the fnel and eXerts a great
er heat energy on the piston and thus
converts it into power instead Of heat
ing up the cylinder walls and cooling
fluid 1t is very important therefore
to see TO the spark shiftin" mechanism
so that the spark period may always
be early enough TO conserve the hoat
energy and cODvert it into power early
in the stroke by consuming rs much
of the fuel as possible in the first half
of the power stroke.
Another fruitful cause Of cylinder
overheating is delayed action Of the
exhaust valve If the valve does not
open at the proper time. or If it does
not lift high enough from its seat to
insure free eCreSS to the exhaust
gases. the heat is retained in the cylin
der to such an extent as to boil the
rOOlin" water and cause the engine to
become so hot as to interfere with
cylinder fabrication.
Della ed valve action may be the re-
suit of worn cams or cam rollers or
from improper timing Of the valves by
means Of the actuating gear. A worn
actnating cam may not lift the valve
sufficiently high from its seat. which
results in the pallet becoming q seri
u obstruction to the very function
1t is supposed to serve The valve
actuating mechanism is especially i'm.
portant to the economical and other
wise successful operation Of the gas

PRODUCTION IF SALT.
Various Methods by Which the Mineral
10 Obtained In the United States.

Various Methods by Which the Mineral
10 Obtained In the United States.
The marketed production Of salt In
the United States. including Hawaii
and Porto Rico, In 1913 reached the
record breaking total Of -. 399. 298 bar
rels Of 28O pounds each. or 4,815.9O2
short tons. The value Of the product
was SO. 1923, 139. These figures are the
greatest yet recorded by the United
States geological survey for the salt
industry in the United States. and they
represent an increase Of 3 per cent In
quantity produced and Of nearly = per
cent in value compared with 1912.
Salt occurs in two distinct ways-as
rock salt in beds Or associated with
bedded or sedimentary rocks and in s O
luton. as in sea water or in brines or
bitterns. A very large part of the salt
production is derived by converting the
natural rock salt into brine. which Is
then pumped to the surface and evap-
Grated.
The two main methods of obtaining
salt are the mining of rock salt and the
evaporation Of salt bearing solutions.
Rock salt is produced chiefly by deep
shaft mining in the eastern. central and
southern parts of the United States.
Active mines are located in Livingston
county. N. Y; near Detroit, Mich; in
Ellsworth and Rice counties, Kan. and
In Iberia parish. southern Louisiana.
A small production comes from surface
deposits in the dry climates of Utah
and California. In 1913 the marketed
production of rock salt in the United
States was 1.OG2.291 short tons. valued
at 81 DIGS. 567.
The processes employed at the pres
time in the manufacture of salt by
evaporation are solar evaporation, d.
rect heat evaporation. steam evapora-
ton and vacuum pan evaporation. Salt
is made by one or more Of these proc
esses in the great majority of the salt
producing states. California Is unique
among these states in that the great
bulk of the salt produced in that state
comes from sea water. being obtained
by solar evaporation on San Francisco
bay. e IL Long Beach and neal San
Diego.

A Rubber SANDING Block.

When smoothing boards with sand
paper the usual method is to wrap the
paper around II block so that :, better
grip for the hand may he had and at
the same time covering the surface
more evenly than could tie accomplish
ed without it. On uneven work the
block would only touch the high spots.
and for this reason it is better to use
"A block of soft rubber about five
inches long. three inches wide and one
and one-half inches thick. Its surface
is yielding. and with the pressure Of
the hands 1t forces the sandpaper into
the low parts and smooths them as
well.

Spinning the Motor.

When starting an engine a better
mixture may be obtained by not open
ing the throttle too wide. Two or three
turns with the spark or and a single
turn with spark on will give the best
start. Spinning the motor should never
be done with the spark On. The object
Of spinning is to ill the combustion
chambers with an explosive mixture.
and this a be done with safety only
when the spark is off. After the cham
bers are filed a single pull upward will
secure all the results of the spinning
and eliminate danger from hack kick
