Unique Heatinn system.

Whether it is practical or not, the
new system of heating for homes de-
vised by Swedish inventor certainly
has the distinction of being unique.
1t is designed for houses of from four
to ten rooms and is especially in
tended for localities where electrical
current is inexpensive. The system
consists of two tanks, a driven
rotary pump and the necessary radi-
ators and piping. One of the tanks is
placed in the attic of the house and is
thermally insulated. In it are placed
the heating units, which, normally, are
only operated at night, when the rates
for electric current are low. In the
morning the units are disconnected
from the supply circuit and the motor
driven pump started. The water flows
down the piping and through the radi-
ators by the force of gravity and is
collected in a receiving tank in the
basement, from where it is pumped
out and returned to the tank in the
attic.

KILLS HIMSELF AS He SLEEPS
New York Physician Makes Fatal Use
of Revolver When He Dreams
of Battle.

DR.. Arthur L. Reeve, Brooklyn, shot
and killed himself in bed. His wife,
who was asleep at his side, said that
she believes he took his life while in
the grip of nightmare. Mrs. Reeve
was awakened by the shot. She
reached over and touched her husband,
but he did not move.
"'It was purely an accident" said
Mrs. Reeve later. sIIe dreamed he
was battling with someone, and
reached under his pillow, got the re-
volver he always kept there, and shot
himself while asleep"
Mrs. Reeve added that two nights
before her husband had a nightmare,
during which he wandered around the
house, being awakened when he
bumped his head against door. She
said that sometimes in his dreams the
physician would cry out with fright.
There was no reason for him to COM
NIT suicide, she said.

Soup Kitchens for Birds.

The establishment of 'soup kitch-

and city parks has been proposed by
A. J. Watson, scout commissioner, who
offers to have Boy Scouts maintain
them if the suet necessary is fur
nished free, states the Kansas City
Star. He also calls on all scouts to
feed the hungry birds about their
homes until the snow has melted
fully.
Scouts are taught to study bird life
and protect it. To feed the birds
scouts have found the best way is to
tie pieces of suet in trees and keep
grain and seeds in boxes also nailed to
trees.
THE furnishing of the seeds is a
small item," Mr.. Watson said. "The
scout organization will gladly do that,
but it does not have the funds to fur
nish suet. If any person or organiza-
ton will furnish it, the scouts will dis
tribute it,

BUILDING DoG-PRooF FENCE
Most Economically Constructed by
Setting Posts Ten Feet Apart
Put Barbed Wire First.

A dog-proof fence can be economic
ally built in the following manner:
Posts are set ten to twelve feet apart
and barbed wire is first stapled to
them right on the surface OF the
ground. Three inches above this is
placed panel Of close-woven wire, so
inches high, and about this two
strands of ordinary barbed wire. Care
should be taken to see that there are
no openings between the ground and
the lowest barbed wire. An Enclosure
made in this manner, into which sheep
may be turned at night, is inexpensive,
and dogs will not go through it. Most
of the damage by dogs is done at
night.

THE BUILDING
OF A COUNTRY
The Natural Pride of Those Who
Take Part in 1t.

To those who have built railroads
through and across the prairies of
Western Canada, connecting that great
empire of grain and cattle, horse and
sheep with the worlds markets in the
east, must be awarded the privilege
of looking upon their work, and its
results with pardonable pride. If they

and the privations, why shouldn't

the buffalo roamed and fed, are now
alive with cities, towns and villages.
Farms-large and small-on which

laborious work off the farm, and max

When the builder Of the western Ca
madam prairie looks upon the result of
his work, why shouldn't his chest ex-
pand? 1t was probably some of this
feeling of pride that took possession
of Sir Donald Mann, vice president OF
the Canadian Northern Railway the
other day in Winnipeg, when he said:
II am not in the habit Of giving adj

TURNING sILAGE INTO BEEF
II Cannot Be Considered as Substi,
tute for Other Necessary Materi-
ais in Animals Ration.

The word "silage" at one time sug-
gested only trimming milk pals and
big milk checks. Nowadays it is as
well a big factor in putting the fin
lshlng touches on choice sirloin beef.
Sllos are common in the beef feed,
ing sections of Wisconsin. The main
reason for feeding silage to beef cat
tie is economy of production. 1t can
not be considered as a substitute for
other necessary materials in the ra-
ton, according to ]. L. Tormey, Col
lege of Agriculture, University of Wis
consin, who gives few suggestions
as to the feeding of silage for beef
production under local conditions.
Glover or alfalfa hay should be
fed along with the silage in the win
ter II clover or alfalfa hay is not
obtainable, use timothy or mixed hay.
In addition to the corn silage and hay
allowance about three or four pounds
of cottonseed meal for each 1000
pounds of live weight OF the animal
should be fed daily.
''Two-year-old steers weighing about
1000 pounds may be started on about
20 to Is pounds of silage, to pounds
of clover or alfalfa hay, and to 6
pounds of mixture consisting of six
parts of corn to one part cottonseed
meal by Sweight daily. In period
Of two weeks the cattle may be
brought UP to full rations, if care
fully watched. At this time they will
eat about Is to 20 pounds of silage,
5 to 6 pounds of hay and IL to ID
pounds of grain mixture daily.
AS cottonseed meal is rather high
priced this year, wheat bran or glu-
ten feed may be used instead with al
most as good results and at a saving
in cost of production"

FORESIGHT MADE HIM RICH
Missouri Druggists investment in
Quinine Before the War Proved
Good Speculation.

One does not have to live in a large
town to find an opportunity to make a
fortune. The opportunities are every
where. 1t is only the man with his
eyes open who sees them. Druggist
Dimmitt of Rochester. Mo-, who re-
membered the demand for quinine dur
ing the Civil war, had his eyes open,
for he bought 10000 ounces of quinine
little more than year ago at IA
cents an ounce His judgment proved
correct, for the quinine that cost him
81. 400 is now worth $4,000, and it may
go higher.
He has had nothing to do with in
creasing the price. 1t is the demand
that is putting it up. A philanthropist
might argue that it is crime to make
money out of the necessities of the
sick; but philanthropists who refuse
to turn an honest penny when the OPP
portunity offers are few and far be-
tween. Some of them do not indulge
in philanthropy as recreation until
they have accumulated a large surplus
by squeezing the last cent of profit
from every transaction. In the mean
time the Dimmitts of big towns and
little ones are doing their best to quail
ify themselves for benevolence by
making hay while death yields the
scythe.

Nitric Acid Needed.

Since the outbreak of the world war
the need of an added abundance of
nitrogen has become doubly appar-
ent. Nitric acid goes into the making
of munitions; the manufacture OF
nitroglycerin, dynamite, guncotton,
smokeless powder and trinitratoluol
are absolutely dependent upon fixed
nitrogen. Many synthetic medicines
would be denied to humanity but for
the metamorphosing powers Of nitro
gen, and for the millions that have
been stricken by its violence hundreds
of thousands have been helped back
to health and strength through this
same element in its beneficent moods.
