Compass That Indicates Time.

BY a slight modification in the or
binary pocket compass 1t has been
transformed into a very practical time
piece for indicating the hour by the
shadow Of the sun. In addition to the
usual points," there is graduated
hour scale with the two twelves at the
north and south. The crystal by which
the magnetic needle is protected has q
line etched across 1t through the CEN
ter and it is mounted in bezel which
permits of the glass being rotatably
moved. Knowing the variation of the
compass. an adjustment of the glass ia
made to overcome 1t, the etched line
forming an angle with the north and
south line corresponding with the vari.
alton. The instrument being held hori'
zontally and the etched line being di.
rected against the sun, the time is in
dicated by the needle, the point OF
which overhangs the graduated hour
scale.-Scientific American.

Experiments indicate that It takes
about ITO pounds of barley to equal in

In Denmark and Germany barley is
very extensively used as a hog feed,
and is highly valued. It is looked on
in Europe'in much ths same light as
we look on corn here. Middlings, oil
meal or tankage should be fed in con-
nection with it to balance the ration.
With food prices, as our correspond
ent mentions, we suggest that the
brood sows be given about one-fourth
of a pound Of tankage daily in connec-
ton with enough barley to keep them
gaining at the rate of about half q
pound per head daily.
The spring pigs which are being
fattened should be fed from one-fourth
to one-third of a pound of tankage
per head daily, in connection with
enough barley to keep them gaining

purebred bull. The small farmer with
one or two cows gains, however, just
as much in proportion by breeding
them to purebred instead of scrub,
and the gain is even more important
to him. For this reason the depart
ment is now encouraging the forma-
ton of live stock associations and bull
clubs In which a number of farmers
unite In the purchase of bull. The
county agents and special demonstra-
tors are also urging upon farmers in
the areas recently freed from the
ticks the following plan for getting a
start in the live stock industry:
1. Get Bermuda grass started on all
pastures. Improve the pastures further
by sowing some lespedeza and bur
clover on the uplands and some alsike
clover or white clover on the bottom
lands.
2. Grow more hay and other forage
on which to winter the stock; or erect
silo II you have as many as 10 dairy
cattle or 20 beef cattle.
8. Bring in good bulls to use for
grading UP the native cattle. Do not
try to raise purebreds to begin with.
4. II not able to buy bull for indi-
vidual use. form bull club.
8. Form a community club or county
live stock association 80 that members
may exchange bulls every two years
and thus obtain the maximum service
from a bull without breeding him to
his own offspring.
6. Heifers of the beef breeds should
not drop calves until they are thirty
months old.
Z. Breed all beef cows so as to calve
during February, March and April.
8. Breed all dairy cows 80 as to
calve in the fall.
8. Wean the beef calves in the fall.
Give them plenty Of good. bright hay,
| silage If available, and about one pound
of cottonseed meal per day for the first
month. After that they can be win
tered on the roughage produced on. the
place and q little concentrate.
10. The breeding stock in the beef
herd may be given the run of the stalk
fields until the middle of winter and
then fed on roughage. AS the cows
will be carrying calves. they should
be kept in a thrifty condition.
IL. II possible, dip all of the stock
each spring and fall to keep them
free Of lice and to put their skin in
good condition.
IL. Never keep a grade bull for Q

the poor children of the parish boun-

youngsters was much more manifest
than their table manners.
One little fellow was discovered

How Many strads Arc There'

Not every eminent violinist can be
the recipient Of q Stradivarius violin
a q gift from his admirers. AZ has
1ust been the good fortune Of Mr.. John
Saunders. The supply Of Strads IL
limited. A very careful estimate fixes
1000 a. the number of string instru-
ments of all kinds-violins. violas and
'cellos-made by Antonio Stradivari
during the seventy-five years he labor
ed In his workshop In Cremona; and
only some 900 are now known to be
still In existence. Probably Q good
proportion Of the remainder are scat
tered over the world In the possession
of owners quite ignorant Of their
value. About twenty years ago quite
. number of genuine Strads were dis
covered in South Africa. in Boer farm
steads, where they had remained In
many cases stored away in boxes In

Huguenots who emigrated to the Cape

Egypt exploration fund led to
the discovery Of q building
which is unique in its kind, and which
is probably one of the most ancient
constructions preserved in Egypt. II
consists of great pool with porches,
called Strabo's well, and the so-called
tomb of Osiris. It is situated behind
the western wall of the temple built
BY Seti l, which has been the chief
attraction of Abydos for travellers. II
was entirely subterranean, at a depth
Of more than thirty feet below the
temple. and nothing revealed its ex-
istence.
The building, as described by
Edouard Naville, director of the ex-
cavation, consists Of q rectangle, the
inside Of which is about a hundred
feet long and sixty wide. The two
long sides are north and south. The
Enclosure wall is twenty feet thick. It
consists of two castings; the outer one
is limestone rather roughly worked;
the inner one IL In beautiful masonry
Of red Quartzite sandstone. The joints
are very fine; there is only Q very
thin stratum Of mortar, which IL hard
ly perceptible. Here and there the
thick knob has been left which was
used for moving the stones. The
blocks are very large-a length of
fifteen feet IL by no means rare; and
the whole structure has decidedly the
character Of the primitive construc-
lions which in Greece are called CYCLIC
pean. and an Egyptian example Of
which IL at Ghizeh, the so-called tenn
pie of the Sphinx.
This colossal character is still more
striking In the inner part Il II d.
vided into three naves or aisles of
unequal sixe-the middle one being
wider. These naves are separated BY
two colonnades Of square monolithic
pillars In granite about fifteen feet
high and eight and one-half feet
square. There are I'VE Of them In each
colonnade. They supported architraves
in proportion with them. their height
being more than six feet. These archi-
traves and the Enclosure wall support
ed . ceiling. also Of granite monoliths,
which was not made Of slabs but OF
blocks, like the architraves. more than
six feet thick. It has been calculated
that one of the few of them remaining
weighs more than thirty tons. Un.
fortunately, In one corner only has the
ceiling been preserved. The whole
building has been turned into quar-.
~, especially the inside. which was
entirely granite. Pillars, architraves
ceiling, everything has been broken
and split with wedges, traces of which
are seen everywhere, in order Il
make millstones of various sizes. Sew.
eral of them, Weighing seven or eight
tons, have been left.
