NEW AUTOMATIC LIGHT BUOY
Requires Only Casual Attention
Being Operated at Small Cost.

Because an automatic light buoy
designed by an inventor of marine APP

not complicated 4 vertical shaft
mounted on ball bearings is actuated
by : weighted horizontal arm that
swings back and forth as the buoy is
rocked by the waves. The motion is
transmitted through gears to high

weights swing either TO the left or the
right, the generator makes few quick
turns and develops strong spark that
passes through n gas-flled glass tube
and produces n bright flash of light.

WINTER KILLING OF
TREES EXPLAINED
Loss of Moisture Results in More
or Less Drying Up of lis
sues OF the Plant.

(By c. B. WALDRON, Missouri College
OF Rgriculture)
1t is commonly supposed that if
trees are given sufficiently moist soil
during their growing period that their
winter condition in this respect is a
matter of little Importance.
AS matter of fact. trees are giving
off moisture at all seasons o1 the year
though to much less extent, OF
course, In cold weather During the
warm sunny days in winter there is a
considerable loss of moisture through
the twigs and except in very severe
weather the roots are able to furnish
this loss though the soil about them
be frozen. The ability to do this is
naturally less If the soil be dry or
frozen very hard. In that case the
loss of moisture results in more or
less complete drying up Of the tissues
of the plant and this often results in
the death of the tree.
What is known as root killing may
In some instances be due to the i'm
mature or unripe condition of the plant
when winter begins, but in most cases
root-killing follows dry seasons.
If the soil has been kept moist by
cultivation or mulching the trees are
safe but If the soil is dry IL should be
thoroughly wet before freezing and
then mulched with old straw, chaff or
stable manure to prevent drying out.
The mulch delays freezing and this
IN itself is an important item, as it is
the long continued frozen state of
woody plants that Injuries them to a
fatal degree.
A moist soil, then, kept In an UNI
frozen condition as long ms possible is
the surest means to prevent winter
killing of trees.

False Limbs for Animals.

A new invention of artificial legs
for horses, mules and dogs was Of
fered to the Philadelphia branch Of
the Red Star Animal Relief by a
French-American veteran who refuses
to disclose his name.
This man, who, since the war start
ed, has taken 81 trips to Europe with
horses for France. claims that al
though the horse or mule will no long
er be good for active service, it may
be used for light farm work if these
legs are used.
The leg, or crutch. which has been
used successfully in the United States,
is made of steel, with a special
quadrant spring initiating the YER
aical and lateral feelings of the ankle
and fetlock. BY means of this many
crippled horses and mules, which
would otherwise he killed, VIII be
given a chance to live.

Bully Incident.

In these times, when our men are de-
parting for the front and there are
flag presentations and sword-givings
galore, and speech-makings in like pro-
portions, some simple form of address
and response might come In very
handy for those who must act as par
ties Of the first part in such
functions suggests an exchange. II
may be that the words spoken at the
presentation of a sword to Col. VIII

Pennsylvania regiment, as he was
starting off to the Civil war, with a
few modifying touches, be made to
serve in the present emergencies. Cap
tain Gillespie, who made the presenta-
ton speech, said:

is bully sword, and comes from
bully boys; take 1t, and use It in n
bully manner"

Captain, that was bully speech.

would have said that was a bully Incl
