WENT UP IN RECURO TIME Comfortable House That Was Begun and Practically Completed in
 S,nglo Day.

A farmer in one of the Middle West ern states bought material for house and then discovered that tor lack of means he could not go on with it. The stuff lay on the ground for months, when cue Gay generous thought CHmo iHtO the mind of a con- tracing builder. He called his men around him and asked for volun;ee to build the "Armer's cottage. telling them he would undertake to do it with in one day if they would contribute their work. Tv Gnty-slx carpenters, ma sons md rani CTS agreed, on the coll dition that the farmer would furnish Il ch'"'le din. ST, and a time was fixed for all to report at the site of the pro- posed building.
 Every man appeared on time and all went at once to work. Each worker was assigned to a particular part, and the house began to go up with rush. When noon came the framework was all up and the chimney was started.
 Then came dinner. The wife of the farmer had fried two dozen chickens.
  dozen ears of corn and ne1erly bushel of mashed potatoes. The dessert con sisted of cherry cobbler and various kinds of pie. The contractor had to call off his men for fear they would eat so much they would not be able to finish the job.
 The hurry began again. Before the roof was on the plasterers were at work, and at exactly six o'clock the cottage was finished, all but the sec ond coat of paint and the skim plas- ter. neither of which could Ee put on before the first coat dried. Everything else, even to putting on the locks and hinges, was done before the men were called off, and done well.
 The contractor complimented his men when the job was complete. He said that although he had done hurry" work before, he had never known a house to be begun and com pIeted in day.

Silos Require Attention

Silos, to give the best service, need attention every year, says the Uni ted States Department of Agricul- ture. Slave silos need the hoops frightened occasionally, and the guy wires should be looked over and made taut. The roof should not be allowed to become leaky, and any de- fective places in the sides should be repaired. It is advisable also to look we'll to the foundation.
 Before the silo is filled the first time it should be painted on the in- side with raw coal tar thinned with gasoline. Every two or three years fresh coat of this paint should be put on. If practicable, a coat of paint on the outside to harmonize with the surrounding buildings will make the place more attractive.

Perfume at seo Per Ounce.

The harvest of Bavarlan roses for last year, being one of the worst on record, the price Of the essence has gone up very considerably. The wholesale price just now is round about $20 an ounce. Before the war 1t was S7. Contrary to popular be- lief, however, altar of roses Is by no means the most expensive scent on the market. Civet Is worth wholesale just now $25 an ounce, and musk 800; ambergris, which forms the basis for nearly all the best quality scents, costs $60 an ounce, and Is hard to get at that. These prices refer, h the case of perfumes to the essential oils, one or two drops of which will make quite a decent-sized bottle of scent. Only dealers in precious stones carry more valuable stock in a small space than the dealers In these highly-cOu- centrated essential oils. A quite mod erate-sized safe in the office of firm of wholesale perfumers will frequent ly contain stock worth $125,0O0.

Hawaiian Volcano Active.

The great volcano Kllauea, 32 miles from Hilo, Hawaii, which for two years has been exhibiting tremendous volcanic force, recently oVerfowed the rim of its active throat and burst forth in fresh activity and brilliance. After weeks of steady rising of the lava in the pit of Halemaumau, the House of Fire" the molten column reached the rim and poured over It toward the southeast side of the great crater, while simultaneously another lava stream burst through the crater floor some distance from the first Hundreds of fire fountains began play Ing on the numerous lava lakes and sheets of flame gushed intermitteutly from beneath the crust surface. Along the main line of the old rift which the new flow Is following, sev- eral lava cones of small craters have formed and these add to the weird scenes with their laundering blasts of steam and fire.

Baby's Milk Should Be
 Pasteurized for Safety

While many people, especially those who have been brought uu in the country and kept cows, state that they prefer the taste of raw milk to that which has been pasteuriZed, there is no doubt but that pasteurized milk is safer for babies, specialists in the United States Department of Agriculture believe. Baby will like it as we'll as any substitute for the mothers milk, and will be much less liable to stomach upsets and inteS- tinal disorders, caused by bacteria.
 Slight warmth is very favorable to the growth of bacteria, which multi ply incredibly fast if milk is not cooled as soon as possible after it is drawn. Pasteurization, or holding the milk at a temperature of 145 degrees F. for 30 minutes is the best method known for destroying a large percentage of the bacteria without undesirably changing the chemical constituents.
 How to Pasteurize Milk at Home
 A baby's milk is most conveniently pasteurized once a day in the nur5- ing bottles into which has been measured the quantities needed fer each feeding. There is then no like lihood of contamination by pouring 1t into other bottles. A wire or tin basket that holds the bottles upright makes it possible to handle them all at one time and without scalding the fingers. The tops of the bottles are plugged with clean cotton, and a thermometer inserted in one of them. The bottles in the wire basket are lifted into pail and surrounded with water nearly to the level of the milk.
 When the thermometer registers 145 degrees F. in the milk, the bottles are romeved, and cold water added to the pail until the temperature is also 145 degrees F. The bottles are put back, covered with a bath towel or other heavy cloth, and allowed to stand for at least 30 minutes. Rapid cooling is done by running cold water into the pail, and finally the bottles are set in the refrigerator till needed.
 Orange juice given babies when fed on pasteurized milk will make up for any loss which the heating caus- ed in the scurvy-preventing power of the vitamines of the milk.

Tinting Will Temporarily
 Improve Silks and Laces

Sometimes, especially with light colored silks and Georgette crepe, it is convenient to give delicate tints by simple method. "Blueing" and "pinking" are most often resorted to. The United States Department of Agriculture finds that, as a rule, the color obtained by tinting is not so permanent as that from dyeing There are soap dyes on the market which may be used for this purpose, Or tinting water may be made by soaking colored crepe or plotting paper, or by mixing a few drops of colored ink in clear water.
 A glass of tinted water held to the light will show about the same color that it will give to the material. A piece of red crepe wrapping paper will easily impart enough color to a basin of water to restore faded pink crepe de chine waist to it's original shade. Violet or green ink or or dinary blueing will act similarly. A small amount of regular dye can also be used without boiling to tint silks. The color of deep cream or ecru lace may be restored by tinting with tea. Coffee is sometimes used, but it is less desirable as it leaves an odor and does not give so clear a tint. A cheap grade of black !ea is good for tinting, Or leftover tea may be used.

 Profitable returns have resulted also from the feeding of garbage to fattening cockerels and old hens. A small flock of turkeys is maintained on this farm and the gobblers gobble their way to a front line position when garbage lunch time rolls around. The turkeys keenly relish the table scraps and abandon tender grasshoppers and succulent alfalfa in order to scamper to the feeding spots when the garbage wagon ap- breaches.

Unidentified Sea Monster.

A sea monster believed to have col4e up 4rC... tue depths of the Gulf stream to die and drifted intok the shallow water north of the Key, where it was discovered by E. E. GarretsOn Is subject for much inquiry by scien- lists A fragment of the skull, weigh ing three tons and measuring 16 feet in length and feet across, was taken to Miami in tow of the yacht COrsair. Thousands of curious persons visited the dock, but none could name the creature, and Mir. Garre tson was uu certain as to the species to which it belongs. He Is inclined to the Opin- ion, however, it is giant squid, for the only bone he could salve was the skull. MT. GarretSOn declared that when he first saw the monster 1t was surrounded by sharks which were de vouring the flesh. He did not know how long 1t was, as he saw only 80 or 90 feet of it, with the head protruding 6 or feet above the water. MT. Gar retson, with the aid of the yacht, pulled the head from the body and in doing so broke the skull. He Is con fident there is another piece of the skull there as large, or larger, than the fragment he took to Miami.
