and will be engaged in the manufacture
of Chemical Fire Engines. Their
building, which will be located on the
lot just south of Young & Sons livery,
will be I0x60 feet in size with a large
basement and will be constructed of
cement, with brick front.
On the start the company will only
make one size extinguisher, the Jewel,
which is described as follows:
Horizontal 50 gal. seamless tank, lead
inside and out; it is mounted on tub.

Thomas u. Wharton is at the head
of the concern and informs us that
while the building the company is erec-
ing this spring is small, they will be able
to supply the demand for a time, and
additional space will be added as il be-
comes necessary TO take care of the
business.
The Exposition is always pleased to
welcome new industries to Yale, and
IL is our earnest wish that the company
may be forced to double its capacity in
a short time.

Still They Come

During the past two weeks our con-
testants have been bringing in lots of
new subscribers for the Expositor, also
big bunch of renewals. AT the pres
ent rate the end of our contest will soon
be in sight. The workers are all out
with the intention of winning, and its
merry war.
Our advice to those who are in the
running is to keep at it. The ones who
keep up the courage till the end are the
ones who will win. Its easy. Get all your
friends to work hard for you, and the
main thing is, work hard yourself. If
you quit hustling you can't expect your
friends to keep up the work. Your
personal work will keep up the interest.
If they see you are out after a prize
they will help you all the more.
Below we publish the list of contest

HAMS OF WEsTPHALIA.
Processes by Which They Are Cured
and Favored.

The famous Westphalian hams,
which are eaten without cooking, are
cured by an elaborate process that has
been worked out patiently and skill
fully by generations of expert work
men. writer In the New York Sun
thus describes the process:
After being rubbed thoroughly with
solution in which there are 100
pounds of salt to one pound of salt
peter, the hams are placed on cement
floors, or in watts, and thickly strewn
with salt. They lie under salt for two
weeks and then pass to a vat that con-
tains % per cent solution of brine.
They remain in that solution for eight
cen days. Every day they are shift
ed in the vat; the hams on the bottom
are brought to the top, and vice versa
At the end of the eighteen days the
hams are packed, one upon another
in cool, dry cellar, where they re-
main for four weeks, in order to ripen
that Is, to take on color and become
tender Then the salt Is washed off
with stiff brush dipped in lukewarm
for twelve hours In fresh water. After
that they are ready for the smoke
house.
The smOkehOuses are two or three
stories high, with holes bored in the
flooring. The fires are kindled on the
ground floor, and the meat is hung on
the second and third floors. The fires
are made entirely Of beech wood, but
the workmen constantly throw juniper
berries and juniper twigs ON the en-
bers. The fire burns brightly. 1t is
checked with beech wood sawdust
whenever it burns too briskly
The smoking continues for about
eight days. Under the ancient curing
methods, however, the hams were Of
ten kept in the smoke rooms for six
weeks, and it is by this latter method
that the best hams are still made by
the country folk of Westphalia.

WHAT A MAN READS.

IL Is a Big Factor In Determining His
Course of Life.
A certain low form of aquatic ami
NAL life anchors itself to a rock and
feeds on whatever the current brings.
The average man feeds his mind in
much the same way. He falls into
line for current amusementS. He reads
only current literature. He listens to
what happens to go by. He makes but
little systematic attempt to shut out
the unfit or to put himself In line for
the fit.
The result Is a defective grade of hui
man life that rarely elevates society
and often degrades it. If man would
make the most Of himself, and that is
manifestiy the supreme purpose for
which he was put into the world, it Is
worth his while to do his daily work
where unclean things, mental and phys
ical, are not made common
1t makes a good deal of difference In
the worth Of the man today as to
whether his reading last night was
Hamlet and Isaiah" or "The Other
Mans Wife," whether he went to the
art institute or the burlesque show.
An ancient teacher of well balanced
mind gave this direction to his disci-
pies as to the topics to be selected for
deliberate thought:
FINALLY, my brethren, whatsoever
things are true, whatsoever things are
honorable, whatsoever things are just,
whatsoever things are pure, whatso-
ever things are lovely, whatsoever
things are of good report, If there be
any virtue and if there be any praise.
think on these things"
To think on these things one must
see and hear these things. To see and
hear these things one must make an
effort to do so.-Minneapolis Journal.

CARE CT GOOD CLOTHES.
The Finer the Stuff the More Watch
full One Should Be.


1t is very common mistake to be-
lieve that good materials, whether of
cotton, silk or wool, need less care than
cheap ones. How often does one com
plain of the lack Of wearing quality in
garment for which big price has
been paid. Yet, most frequently, what
has worn out the fabric has not been
actual use, but the neglect 1t has suf-
fered.
One Of the principal differences be-
tween good and cheap materials Is that
the better grades are finer spun. This
may mean that the fabric is stronger
and, in proportion to the uses to which
1t is put, may wear longer, but it also
means that each tiny thread by itself is
weaker and more apt to injury. Any
thing which may attack the threads
one by one, therefore, does more harm
with fine goods than with coarse
No matter how careful one may try
to be, clothes that one wears gradually
get trife of the grease from the per-
spiration of the body. In spite of con-
slant watching clothes will become
dusty. This combination of dust and
body moisture forms a regular breeding
ground for tiny little vegetable growths
These are SO small that it takes the
most powerful microscope even to see
them.
In themselves these bacteria do but
little harm, but many Of them set free
an acid which eats into the fiber of the
material. If the individual fiber is
coarse the deposit Of the acid upon 1t
Is not enough to eat all the way
through, but If it is sheer or woven of
fine threads one by one the threads are
eaten through and the texture weak
ened.
Good clothing, instead of being kept
shut away in boxes and drawers, should
be constantly aired and shaken. The
finer the material the more often should
1t be looked after A coarse piece of
goods will wear out by using, a fine
piece by being laid away.-New York

MILITARY STRATEGY.
Retreatng Through City Is Disas-
trous to an Army.


II you suffer defeat in front of
great town and have to retreat through
1t under the blows Of the victorious
enemy you are in the worst possible
position for conducting that retreat
The streets Of the town (but few of
which will run parallel to your course
and can. therefore. serve as avenues
Of escape for your army are SO many
def1les in which your columns will get
hopelessiy congested. The operation
may be compared to the pouring OF
too much liquid into a funnel which
has too small an ori1ce. Masses of
your transport will remain clogged out
side the place. You will run the risk
Of partial and perhaps of complete
disaster as the enemy presses ON.
There is very much more than this
A great town cannot but contain, If
you have long occupied 1t, the material
Of your organization. You will proba-
bly, abandon documents which the
enemy should not see. You will GER
tainly, IL the pressure Of such fight,
lose accumulated stores. Again, the
transverse streets are so many points
of leakage" into which your longest
ed columns will bulge out and get con-
fused again. you will be almost nee
essarily dealing with the complications
of mass CT civilian conditions which
should never be allowed to interrupt
military operation.
In general, to. fight in front OF a
great town when the chances are
against you is as great an error as to
fight in front of a marsh with few
causeways. So far as mere topogra-
ply is concerned, it is a greater error
still.-From 1.-THE Elements of the
Great War;" by Hilaire Belloc.

Leakage In Steam Pipes.

To make a permanent cement for
stopping leakage in steam pipes where
caulking or plugging is impossible, mix
black oxide of manganese and raw
Hnseed oil, using enough oil with the
manganese to bring it to a thick paste.
Apply to the pipe or joint at leak. If
the pipe be kept sufficiently warm to
absorb the oil from the manganese,
in twenty-four hours the cement will
be as hard as the iron pipe.
