HIGHEST Telephone Pole.

The tallest telephone pole in the
world Is where the wires of the Pacific
States Telephone company cross the
Chehales river, near Aberdeen, Wash.
For some time pole 80 feet high was
sufficient to keep the wires clear Of the
river craft. But the increasing passage
of ocean steamers made a higher pole
necessary, and new one 126 feet high
was set up. This pole is one single
stick of Washington fir, IS inches at
the butt and 8 inches at the top. The
pole weighs 5000 pounds.
The stick was cut at point II miles
distant and towed down the river,
where it was erected by II men using
a 12-horsepower hosting engine. For
making attachments to the pole and
raising it q five-eighths steel cable was
employed, run through ten-inch steel
blocks. The pole was set II feet in
the ground and guyed with four steel
stranded wires at the top. and also
guyed about 40 feet from the top with
four-sixteenths-inch wires.

The Indian Sign Language.

A white man who visits foreign
nation finds it hard and sometimes
impossible to make his most ordinary
wants known. The red man has no
such difficulty; the problem of uni
versal language was solved centuries
ago by the savage inhabitants of this
western world. Should an Indian from
northern Alaska go to Patagonia he
could by means of this universal Ian
guage converse with his southern
brethren almost as easily as he could
with his neighbOrs at home. That
would also be the case If he visited
Central America or met the tribes
men of our own western prairieS and
mountains. When this language was
invented no one knows. but every In
dian learns it in addition to his own
Recently two chiefs Of different tribes
met in the Geographic society rooms
in Washington and held conversation
that lasted nearly three hours. and yet
neither one knew word of the 9th

LIVE STOCK IMPROVES SOIL
Farmers Who Save All Manure Pro-
duced on Farm Know Its Value
in Providing Humus.

Not all farmers have learned the
great value of manure In increasing
the yield of crops. Those who save
all the manure produced on their
farms know the value of it and feel
that they cannot afford to lose 1t.
Those who have not been in the habit
Of saving manure do not know its
value.
While the commercial value of the
constituents in manure is not high,
there is another and a very import
ant value, that of providing organic
matter, called humus. A few loads of
manure on thin soil, low in organic
matter will increase the yield sur.
prisingly. And the yield is likely to
be greater for several years.
If every farmer could understand
the possibilities of building up his soil
| by raising live stock, saving and ap.
plying every farm would have all the
live stock 1t would maintain, and the
number IL could maintain would be
gradually increased because of larger
crops.
Here is thought: Live stock to eat
the feed and save marketing cost
More manure, richer land, larger crops
better profits, more Independent farm

Child Welfare In England.

The Wood Green Urban council Of

nursing mothers, who will be permit
ted to attend for advice on specified
days to be given by a qualified ma
ternity nurse, appointed for the pur-
pose. The medical officer Of health,

cases requiring special treatment.
There is also to be home visiting OF
such mothers by the maternity nurse
Complicated cases are to be placed in
a maternity hospital. Arrangements
are to be made with the provision OF
a meals committee to provide such
mothers with suitable meal daily

BEATING the Shiftino Sands.

Confronted by the task of building a
highway over a desert of constantly
shifting sands, which in a few years
might cover and render useless a road
bed of macadam or concrete, the Cali
fornia highway commission has intro
duced type of paving which is port
able, so that it can be easily moved to
conform to the changing topography OF
the country. Popular Mechanics Maya
zine describes the paving as made of
plank, built in sections II feet long
and 8 feet wide, and hauled by wagons
to the points where it is needed. This
unused thorOughfare extends six miles
across portion of the desert
lying between Yuma, Ariz., and
Holtville, Cal. The plank sections
are built on by 6-inch StringerS. The
units are bound together by iron
strips placed over rows of spikes, one
either side and one along the center
of the road. ROundheaded bolts run
ming through the planks and stringers
are used to hold the strips down. The
latter. in addition to joining the units
together keep the spikes from working
out of the lumber.

shrunk to the sickrOom, now rises
again like the genie out of the bottle

cows are fed on grass (nature's feed)
is soft straw yellow this color is not
so high when the cows are fed on dry
feed, and when grass or other green
feed is not available, harmless vege-
table color is added to the cream as
soon as it is placed in the churn. About
ten drops of coloring matter to every
pound of butter will produce the de-
sired color. Butter-cOlOr can be OBJ

dealers in dairy supplies.
ChurninQ.
After churning has been in progress
two or three minutes, gas forms in the
churn and must be let out by removing
the cork. This should be done every
few minutes until gas ceases to form.
After churning has been in progress
15 or 20 minutes, very small mealy
granules begin to form, and the cream
takes on a thick, gummy cOnsistence,
which is termed breaking" At this
point the cream begins to break off
| from the glass in the lid of the churn.
| From this ON the churning must be
cautiously done. After every four or
| five revolutions the lid should be re-
moved and the size of the granules OBJ
served When they have reached the
size of large wheat kernels the
+, operation is complete, and the
glass in the churn lid appears
clear, showing that the butter gram
ules slide completely off 1t dur
ing the revolutions of the churn.
From the first revolution of the churn
to this point it should require about
% or 80 minutes revolving of the
churn. If longer time is required,
the temperature of the next cream
churned should be raised a few de-
grees. Remember that when the
churning is complete the granules OF
butter should be about the size of large
wheat kernels, and the temperature OF
chprning should be such that they will
appear in 25 or 80 minutes. II the
cream is too warm the butter will be
in a coherent, soft mass like pound
cake batter. Good butter cannot be
made in less than 25 or 80 minutes. Dc
not be misled by arguments for seven
minute churns.
After the stage of granules the size
of large wheat kernels has beer
reached, remove the lid from the churr
and drain the buttermilk off through
a strainer to catch any small particle.
