The successful method of propagar

cred species of oyster which pro-
duced the pearl On the surface of the
shell. Though the finding of the oys-
ters and inserting the nuclei, then
waiting for the pearl to grow to a
commercial size may seem a simple
process, the fact that it has not re-
duced the price of the gems, even to
that of the most expensive limitations,
shows that it is beset with many diff.
culties.

is inlaid with hunting. scene in gold.
The barrels are of the finest Krupp
steel. Before starting on the trip the

gun I have ever seen. I am almost
ashamed to take it to Africa and sub
-jectf it to the rough treatment it will
receive" - o., ~ kr-, <a~

right open. It is cored to shoot either
buckshot or single ball.

ExSesi@sa Ststion:-
To Westesn Farm Life:
CoslA you give me through the Ques.
ton end Answer column, formula for
meassrInG alfalfa hay in stack?-V.
BrImbb, Weld Co.
The most accurate rule for measuring
ordinary stacks is one recently devised
as . result Of experiments by one of the
government departments. This rule
gives accurately the number of cubic
feet in IN ordinary hsystsck. The rule
is as follows: Multiply the lover" by
the width, by the length (sll measure
ments TO be taken in feet) multiply
this product by the decimal factor q. 81
This will give the contents in cubic feet
for an ordinary shaped alfalfa stack
Special factors are required for stacks
other than ordinary shaped stacks.
These factors vary from O25 TO 0.37
The factor 0. 81 will fit a larger number
Of stacks than others. The question in
deter@ininG the number of cubie feet
to allow for ton is more AifScult, ss
the number Of cubic feet to allow for
a ton Of alfalfa hay varies With the
size Of the stack and the length Of time
the stack has settled. and also the con-
dition of the hay when stacked. The
common practice is to allow 5lz cubic
fset for ton. Actus lily the number of
cubic feet necessary may vary from rs
low % 400 to rs high as go, depending
Upon conditions mentioned above. The
n Imber Of tons is obtained by dividing
ne number Of cubic feet (obtsined by
multiplying the ''over" BY the width,
by the length and the decimal factor
0 3l) by 5l2 where that is used as a
Visor.
