operated during the war. II is here
that the British have accomplished
wonders in the way of agricultural
development. making this section of
the world worth living in again from
a civilized mans standpoint.
The Arabs who largely populate this
country have seen the wisdom of this
development and the old feeling of
sloth which was furthered by debili-
tatfng Turkish methods is fast dis
appearing and the peoples Of Mesopo-
tamia are looking forward to the fu-
ture with great eagerness. The King
of the Hedjaz eventually expects to
see the peoples of Syria and Mesopo-
tanlia all incorporated in the Arab
state. but frankly confesses that these
two countries should be autonomous
for the present and placed under man
datories. Now that Russian claims in
Mesopotamia are no longer to be con-
sidered. it is an easy proposition to
settle the mandatory for Mesopofa
mia. 1t will be British.
Put Trust in Americans.
One of the most interesting fea-
Sut GO u tine pcdGe conference, iIci-

British and Americans are looked
upon by these peoples of the near
east and elsewhere whe viii be sub
ject to manufactures until definite
order is established. More interesting,
possibly, is the Discrimination OF the
British to branch out too far. Each
proposition is weighed carefully, mas
much as some British officials have
admitted frankly that, owing to the
burdens of the war, Britain is not in
a position to sacrifice too many of her
trained officials to countries placed
under Britain's mandatory control.
and, Furthermore. Britain's financial
condition, though sound still, has its
limitations. Just how far this will
go in limiting Britain's control over
regions of the near east and else
where which desire to come under
her guardianship remains to be seen,
but that the English will manfully
shoulder such responsibilities as may
fall upon them az the result of de-
mands in the new adjustment and re-

Honey is an unknown sweet to many
of our families, due to the scarcity and
often the price. Honey is equal in
sweetness to sugar and may be used
as substitute. In using honey the
liquid in any recipe is reduced one
quarter of a cup. Honey contains
protein and some soluble minerals

essary to order these from supply
houses in distant cities, and it is ad-
visable to attend to this matter at
once, so that the new boxes can be put

Repairing AxIes.
If the aXles are badly worn on the

they can be replaced with new axles.
Where this is impossible, they can
oftentimes be repaired by using Bab-

After the implement has been thor

should be given good coat of paint.
If the old paint is gone or badly worn,
it is advisable to apply coat of lin

Methods of Making cordwood.
The most common method of max
ing cordwood is to cut the trees into
4-foot lengths with the ak and split
the larger pieces. The pieces are then
piled in a standard cord, which is
feet long, feet high, and feet wide.
The contents are 12S cubic feet, of
which about 70 per cent is wood and
80 per cent air. Wood cut feet
long can be sold to brickyards, lime.
kilns, Woodworking plants, and other
industries, but is too large for house
hold use. This method is used chiefly
where the tree growth is comparative
ly small, as in second growth, because
such wood splits easily.
Another method, and one better
adapted for old-growth hardwoods
which are difficult to split, is to saw
the tree into logs of convenien
lengths, say from 10 to 10 feet. These
are "snaked" out to the edge of thu
woodland and there sawed and spill
into lengths proper for the stove o.

the heat add one-fourth of teaspoon

Peanut Candy.-Boil together three

or by electricity. The wood is piled
feet high and feet long, such
pile being called "stOve-woOd" or
running" cord or "run." When the
wood is sawed into 16-inch lengths, as
is customary with stove material,
three runs are theoretically equivalent
to one cord. Actually they contain
somewhat more wood, since small
pieces can be packed more closely
than larger ones.
Wood a Profitable Farm Crop.
Firewood is expected to bring a
better profit this year than ever be-
fore. 1t is a much less perishable crop
than many which the farmer raises.
When properly piled, the better kinds
of wood will last from two to three
years, although wood steadily deterior-
ates after the first year.
To have the best heating value, as
well as to reduce the cost of hauling
wood should be thoroughly seasoned,
which means air-drying it from six to
eight months. However, when piled
so as to get good circulation of air,
so per cent of the moisture may be
removed in three months. Wood cut
in October and November, therefore,
may be burned the latter part of the
winter.
The prices which cordwood likely
! Will bring this year offer the farmer
an opportunity to improve his wood.
