MASKING the Gums.

Against air craft observation M of
1}1e first precautions taken is to splash
gins limbers and ammunition wagons
with different neutral tints so that they
will blend WITH the ground about
them. Any eartbNorks. pits. etc, that
are erected or dug are strewn with
leaves and branches and the earth dis
iurbed generally. So that from above
nothing unusual shall be spotted by
keen eyed air men.
A battery Of guns is seldom placed
along the sky line. for there it is an
easy mark. Generally the guns are
concealed some distance down the in
cline In front Of the sky line, unless
the guns are hOMitZers. Ina which case
they can be best served from behind
the ridge. The idea Of placing the
guns III front Of the ridge is that the
rising ground behind them rye as
al elfectual screen. as the guns them
selves are painted to represent earth

Birds as Lamps.

The natives Of Trinidad make use or
the young guacharo in an unusual man
ner. The young are very fat and are
frequently found to weigh more than
the full grown birds. Their fat is used
by the natives to produce an oil which
is a substitute for butter. Also It is
frequently the custom of the natives
to draw d wick through the body Of il
young g%uacharo and use it as a lamp
or candle. Thus the gnacharo is some
times called the oil bird.

DYNAMITE ON THE FARM.

Has Been round Beneficial IN many

During the last few years dynamite

found beneficial to loosen up the hard

not take the place of blowing. 1t sim

than the plow can run and admits the
air ana moisture deep into the soil,
thus making it possible for the roots Of
the plants to penetrate to a greater
depth.

depth of two feet, and fifteen feet
apart A small charge of dynamite Is
exploded in each hole. The stick Of
dynamite is inserted in the hole and
the fuse and cap placed in position.
The dirt is tamped about it, the fuse is
lighted and the explosion takes place
The manufacturers of dynamite make
different grades and are prepared to
furnish instruction to farmers about
dynamiting their land and the degrees
OF strength the dynamite for this pur-
pose should have.
Late experiments are proving that
dynamite is becoming very useful in
the orchard for blowing holes for
young trees and in looSening the soil
between and about the trees that have
been planted for number Of years
There are two advantages in blowing
the hole for tree planting. 1t loQsens
up the soil to a great depth and for
some space about the hole. This Is
very advantageous when one considers
that the roots of the tree, II not hin.
dered by a firm SOIL will often pene
trate the earth to a depth of twenty
feet. This also allows a free clrcula
ton Of moisture, which carries the
plant food to the tree, so the greater
the amount Of available food for the
tree. Thus the growth is more rapid
and the tree Is more healthy. 1t has
also been discovered that dynamite
not only loOSens the soil, but it de-
stroys grubS, worms or other insect
life likely to prey upon the roots of
the tree and retard its growth.
Orchardists have also found it bene,
fetal to blast the soil between the
trees. 1t breaks up the soil that is
firm by nature or has been made SO
by drought or beating rains. This is
done in September, when soil is dry
and hard. A blast will stir the soil in
radius Of six or eight feet, giving the
roots opportunity for greater expan.
sion.
In blowing out stumps and trees dy-
Mantle is a wonderful time and labor
saver 1t does its work quickly and
rids the soil of stump and tree roots
This is done by putting a deep hole
beneath roots of stump or tree with
iron rod and placing charge Of dyna.
mite in this hole, tamping in the dirt
after putting on the cap and fuse. In
short time one can rid several acres
of land of trees and stumps.
When ditching lowlands dynamite
can be used very successfully in loos-
ening up the soil and blowing much of
1t clear of the ditch. The charges can
be set a few feet apart and all of
them set off about the same time.
What other work is necessary can be
easily and rapidly done with teams
and scrapers.

Bodily Housekeeping
(BY V. NJ. PIERCE, NJ. d.

The subject of drinking water with
meals has been misunderstood.
In recent years investigation by
means Of Mays, the observations of
scientists such as Cannon. Grutzner,
Paylov, Fowler, Hawk prove that an
abundance of water taken during di-
gestion is necessary in good bodily
housekeeping.
If your kidneys are sick, or you suf-
fer with lumbago or rheumatism at
times, pain In the back or back of the
neck, take a little Anurlc before meals.
This can he found at any good drug
store. Therefore my advice to young
or old is. always drink plenty of pure
water. And for long life, occasionally
take tablets of Anuric three or four
times n day
Anuric acts--much more quickly
than lithia. You Will find It dssolves
uric acid as water does sugar.
