How to Fit a Horse Collar.

A collar should be fitted to the horse
and not the horse to the collar The
collar that Is too large should not be
rsed on horse in the hope that he
viii grow large enough so it will even
,ually dit. A collar that fits we'll in
the spring may not tit at all in the fall.
When one is fitting horse with a
collar the animal should be standing in
natural position on level ground, with
his head held at the height maintained
while at work. The collar when buck
led should fit snugly to the side of the
neck, and its face should follow closely
and he in even contact with the sur
face of the shoulders from the top Of
the withers to the region Of his throat
Al. the throat there should be enough
room for a mans hand to be inserted
inside the cOllar.-Farm and Fireside.

All household furnishings should be
exposed to direct sunlight for mum.
Der Of hours every few days. Direct
sunlight is the best disinfectant known.
Ii kills germs In few hours. Dlffused
sunlight or daylight may have as good
effect, but in much longer time. Shut
ting the sunlight out OF the house Is
an unhygienic custom. II should go

customs belonging to the dark ages.
Germs live and thrive in darkness.
For that reason sunshine should find
its way into the home daily. and its
presence should be welcomed as a mes
senger Of cleanliness and good health.
The drawing Of shades and the closing
Of windows to keep the carpets and
draperies from fading should be dis
cOuraged. Ii Is better to have carpets

more valuable than roses in the carpet.

People Who Rarely Wink.

There are people who rarely wink.
How they manage to get along with
out doing SO is marvel. but some
how or other they do. Some eyes are
naturally more moist than others, and
the very moist eye does not so much
need the assistance Of the lids to keep
the eyeball bright. 1t Is constitu-
,.onal matter, for winking, though
under the control Of the will, is done so
quickly that it Is practically an invol-
untary action. Men wink when they
feel that the eve is uncomfOrtably dry,
and when 1t does not become dry the
necessity for winking is not felt.

Bumps on the Head.

The lump raised by a blow on the
head is due to the resistance offered
by the hard skull and its close connec-
ton with the movable elastic scalp by
many circumscribed bands Of connec-
tive tissue. The result of blow when
the scalp is not cut is the bruising and
laceration of many Of the small blood
vessels or capillaries. Blood or its
fluid constituent, serum, is poured into
the meshes Of the surrounding con-
nective tissue, which is delicate,
spongy, distensible and cellular, and
the well known bump or lump is quick
ly formed. This cannot push inward
at all and naturally takes the line Of
least resistance. Similar bumps may
be formed on the shin in exactly the
same way, for the shin bone also is
covered only by skin and simultaneous
connective tissue.

Stewed Apples.

To stew apples so each quarter is un-
broken and so clear one can almost see
through it is an art, and yet it is sim
pie thing to do if one only knows how.
Peel tart apples very thin, cut them in
quarters and remove the cores and
seeds. AS fast as you can peel and
quarter them drop the apples in a
saucepan in which you have already
placed cold water to the depth Of two
inches. When the apples are all in put
the saucepan over a slow fire, cover it
till the water reaches the boiling point,
then remove the cover and let the ap-
piles simmer almost imperceptibly till
you can pierce them easily with a
toothpick; then sprinkle the sugar
over them and let them just simmer
until it is all melted. Remove the
saucepan from the fire and let it stand
where the apples will get cold before
turning them into a dish for the table

mod.,n preadnsushts.

Beyond all doubt modern dread
naughts represent the highest level OF
controlled strength that the human
race has yet seen. The fact that $4,000
tons or more Of metal can be driven
through water at the speed OF an ex-
press train while its big guns hurl
shells weighing three-quarters OF a
ton to a distance Of twenty miles Is a
miracle in mechanism.
During the evolution Of the warship
to its present state Of efficiency marine
engineers have been faced with the
problem of protecting vital parts OF the
vessel from the ever increasing hitting
power of large shells. In other words,
the fighting value depended upon its
ability to take as well as give hard
knocks. Some idea Of the difficulty
may be gathered from the fact that a
fifteen inch shot strikes a blow at Its
maximum point Of speed capable OF
lifting $4,000 tons a foot from the
gromd.-London Standard

fire and burned her scalp to a crisp, so
that hair never again will grow there
on, Henry Hamilton Of Idaho, now
working on a nearby ranch, is grow

his idea when he returns home to have
the hair cut and made into a wig for
his little girl
The story came out when Hamilton,
who had been arrested while on a visit
to this city, was questioned by Max P
Fisher as to the cause of the flowing
locks.
Hamilton said he had come to Cali
fornia to work during the winter be-
cause he could not get steady employ
ment in Idaho during the cold weather
He added he expected to return home
In a few weeks and prepare the wig
for which he has been undergoing rid
icule because Of his long hair. After
his story had been verified he was re-
leased.

Welding Glass.

Welded glass suitable for certain OPP
teal instruments and other apparatus
is a novel material that is stated to be
Of great practical value as well as
much interest. AS the welding proc
ess is described by Parker and Dalla-
Gay to the. Faraday Society Of Lon
don, the glass surfaces to be Joined
are placed In good optical contact
under pressure and are heated to a
carefully predetermined temperature,
which, to avoid distortion Of OFFICIALLY
worked surfaces, must not approach
too near what is defined as the "an-
healing point" This point Of appreci-
able softening is determined for any
kind of glass by noting the tempera-
ture at which the internal heat stresses
seen in the glass with polarized light
quite suddenly disappear. Similar
glasses unite perfectly well below this
point, but with very unlike kinds the
softer becomes distorted before the
harder is hot enough to make a good
weld.

WARS GOLDEN AGE.

Cardiff, Waies.-Subscripti from
Cardiff to the new British war loan
amounted to more than $150,OOO, 600
an average Of $3.50 for every man

markable contribution is an indication
of the golden age which the war has
brought to Cardiff. In no British city
has such vast wealth been earned sc
easily and quickly.
At the outbreak Of the war Cardiff
had the largest export trade In the
country. Freights began to increase
Ships doubled, trebled, Quadrupled II

ing and daring, bought whole fleets on

fore the war were shipping clerks
earning not more than $40 a week.
1t has not been the owners only who
have profted. First class dock Ia

Swamp Lands.

The national chamber Of commerce
declares that had not the hospital
corps of the army definitely determin-
ed the status Of the mosquito and thus
caused menacing swamp lands to be
drained it is an open question whether
the building Of the Panama canal
would have been possible.
In following up this work we find
that the United States in draining
breeding places Of the mosquito has
reclaimed thousands Of acres Of land
and made them available for agricul-
tural purposes. There are approx
mately 100000 acres Of swamp
lands In the country where for years
the mosquito has held undisputed
sway, Of which 100000, or about
one-eighth of the total area Of the
country, can be reclaimed for the plow-
share. The only value Of swamp land
lies in its possibility Of reclamation;
otherwise it is a serious liability as a
breeder Of disease.-Leslie's.

The Crested Fly Catcher.

Why does the crested fly catcher Sc
lect dried snake skin to line his nest
Some naturalists believe it is to rem
der the nest waterproof. Others think
the dried skin serves as a burglar
alarm, to rattle at the approach OF a
squirrel or other enemy.
This bird builds his nest in hollow
trees, stumps or posts. Sometimes he
rents the abandoned home Of the wood
pecker. Professor n. A. Surface, Penn
sylvania state zoologist, tells Of one
that usurped a rural mail box for his
fat. OF recent years they have been
known to inhabit box homes put up for
their special benefit.
So if you want to encourage the
crested fly catcher, build him a box
nest. He'll pay the rent many times
over. He eats beetles, flies, grasshop-
pers, butterflies and moths.-Exchange.
