be made to explode with marvellous

NAVAL SIGNALING.

Il Began In Ancient Days by Raising
and Lowering Sails.
The origin Of the idea Of using dass
BY day and lanterns by night for sig.
mailing In the navy came into being
% far back as the middle ages.
In those ancient days some one
thought out method Of raising and
lowering sails, the number Of times
they were raised or lowered indicating
the letter that was to be sent. That
proved very wearis0me work and was
superseded In the seventeenth century
by the use Of balls and cones hoisted
In various positions on the masts and
booms. At night different colored Ian
terms were used.
In the following century twelve fags
were used, either singly or in combina-
ton, and these flags supplied all the
signaling that was necessary in fight
ing. as make all SAIL" Engage the
enemy" "Chase the enemy" or IAN.

When the battle Of Trafalgar was
fought the signals were sent by light,
guns and flares and flags, and 1t was
not till after that battle that the sys-
tenn, invented by Sir Home Popham,
was used and on which are based the
present day methods Of signaling.
The system Of signaling from ship to
ship by semaphore was due to q

HOME STORAGE OF BUTTER

Butter to be packed for home stor-
age should be closely pressed down
in stone Jar or crock or In clean
freshly scalded wooden pail. II wood
is used line the receptacle with a
piece OF wet cheesecloth. Pack the
bntter down so that one-half inch or
more OF space Is left at the top, says

Cover with wet cloth and pack
salt over II closely. Put on some air
tight covering like parraffin and put
II away In cool place. Good butter

months.
OF course. cold storage Is an ideal
way for keeping perishable products
but all farms do not have cold stor-
age facilities. Success by this meth
cd requires low. steady tempera-
ture and moist atmosphere and an
alright package. A temperature OF
