Many lover of fine china has been
heartbroken to discover her choice din

cracks. Hot tea or chocolate poured
into dainty cups cracks them instantly.
A Chinese merchant gave this bit of
information when a rare tea set was
purchased from him. Before using
delicate china place 1T in a pan of
cold water. Let 1t come gradually to
the boil and allow the china to remain
In the water till cold" This tempers
the china, and It is capable of with

by the heat. There is no need of re-

GRAIN CONSUMPTION
VARIES DURING YEAR
Feeding Of Oats Is More Uniform
Than That Of Corn.
Barley Wheat and Rye Approach
Monthly Uniformity In Degree Less
Than oats--siIage Reaches
High Point in February.

prepared by ths.United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Whether the supposition is that the
consumption Of corn by live stock on
farms in the United States varies
little from month to month, or that
the summer consumption is relatively
small, the fact, as ascertained by the
bureau of crop estimates, United
States department Of agriculture, is
that during the six months from May
to October nearly three-eighths Of the
years corn ration is eaten, and from
November to April ive-eighths. The
warm-weather fraction will seem large
or small according to the size Of the
guess. Oats, more than corn, is the
feed from April to September, and the
monthly consumption of oats Is more
uniform throughout the year than that
of corn. Barley, wheat and rye ap-
proach monthly uniformity in degree
less than that of oats throughout the
year and a concentration of consump-
tion in the colder months is found in
hay, siIage and mill feed, as in the
case of corn.
Of the years entire consumption of
corn by live stock on farms the high
est consumption in one month Is 11.5
per cent in December, and the lowest
4.6 per cent in August. For oats the
highest is 9.S per cent in April and the
lowest 6.8 per cent in December; bar
ley, highest 1913 per cent In November
and lowest per cent in June and also
In July; rye, highest 1913 per cent in
October and lowest IL per cent In
July; wheat, highest 11.4 per cent in
November and lowest 5.8 per cent in
July.
Mill feed consumption sags to 4.8
per cent in July and rises to lis per
cent in February and again In March.
More unequal yet Is hay consumption,
with its range from the highest, 14.2
per cent in February and also in
March to 3.2 per cent in August; and
another degree is reached by silage,
the consumption of which rises to 1873
per cent of the years total In Febrtn
ary and falls to / per cent in July and
again in August.

HANDICAP m LOSS or EYE.
Said to Depend Largely on Time Of
Life at Which the Accident
Occurred.

What actual disability is involved
n the loss of one eye? Accident Hn-
shrance companies usually estimate
It at so per cent, but Sir Arthur Pear
son told the British committee on the
administration of soldiers and sailors
pensions that this was absolutely abb
surd, and suggested 25 per cent as
more reasonable estimate.
1t depends largely upon the time OF
life at which the eye is lost. By
binocular vision, says the Lancet, we
fuse two slightly dissimilar images
of an object, which are focused upon
the two retinas. and this enables US
to estimate correctly the relative po-
sition or distance Of objects. This
power, however. is not confined to
those Of us who possess two good
eyes. The man who has been blind In
one eye from infancy possesses 1t in
almost equal perfection with the pos
SCISSOR Of two eyes. For many other
factors unite to compensate for the
absence of stereoscopic vision. These
are atmospheric and shadow effects,
parallax and, above all. memory Of
what the shape of objects really Is,
according to knowledge which has
been acquired in early years, largely
by the sense Of touch.
On the other hand, If one who pos
sesses this faculty is suddenly deprived
Of 1t he will be considerably handi-
capped, especially at first. A woman
may find she cannot pour from a tea
pot into cup without spilling the tea.
A Zimmerman may. take some time
before he can hit the nail on the
head with his former accuracy; indeed.
whether or not he can ever attain 1t
again Is doubtful.

AGAINST WAGES FOR WIVES

Wages for wives were turned down

Another speaker pleaded that "wcnI-
