STILL TO MAKE
BATTERY WATER
Simple and inexpensive C0ntriv-
anCe Can Be Put Together
by Any Handy Mechanic.
DETAILS OF CONSTRUCTION
Boiler or Tank in Which Water Is
Turned to Steam Is Made Of Quart
or HaIf-GalIon Can or Bucket
With Rolled Seams.

With the greatly increasing use of
storage batteries In automobiles the
demand for pure or distilled water has
increased 1t is unnecessary to pur-
chase this water or pay the garage
man to put ii in the battery. With
this simple and inexpensive still any
one can distill water for refilling the
batteries as the occasion requires
AS shown in the illustration accom-
panying this article, the boiler or tank
in which the water Is turned to steam,
is made of quart or half-gallon can
or bucket with rolled seams Be sure
they are not soldered at the bottom.
The top of the can or bucket is open.
Procure large tin funnel that will
fit over the top of the can and then
solder firmly and tightly in place as
shown. This completes the boiler.
The condenser consists of three
lengths of glass tubing each II inches
in length. These tubes pass through
a larger tube or a piece of iron pipe
or brass tube of sufficient size to ac-
cOmmodate the tubes with some space
between them. Fit large cork into
each end of the large pipe or tube and
pass the three glass tubes through
the corkS. Then into each cork fit q
short length of glass tube, one at the
bottom, the other near the top of the
large tube. Connect the free ends of
the long tubes with rubber tubing 80
that they will form one long cOntinu-
Gus tube.
Fill the boiler half full of clean
water by submerging, and place 1t
over gas fame until the water comes
to boil. Connect the top Of the
funnel with one free end OF the glass
tube through the condenser by

STUDYING COUNTRY'S
FOREIGN RELATIONS
President Harding and His
Advisers Make Study of
The Situation.

Washington.-As the new admins
tratlon settled down to a working
basis, both President Harding and his
chief advisers are giving increasing
attention to the country's foreign re.
lations.
Selections of a new set of diplo-
matte relations abroad, relations with
Mexico, the Rhine situation, the
league Of nations and the Panama
Costa-Rican controversy are in the
forefront Of consideration.
SO far as diplomatic appointments
are concerned, it was said this week
that no final selection had been
made.
The question of Mexican relations
hinges upon ability of the administra-
ton of President Obregon to establish
a regime that will win American rec
ognit1on. Just what requirements for
such recognition should be is occu-
plying officials at Washington and it
is possible that some pointed intima-
lions may go forward soon to Mexico
City. Much as the administration
hopes for full restoration of diplo-
matte relations with the Southern re-
public, there is little evidence of con-
fidence that formal recognition may
be possible in the near future
President Harding discussed the
Mexican problem with R. B. Creager
of Texas who has been suggested for
ambassador to Mexico in case of uti-
mate recognition, and later Mr. Creag-
er talked with Undersecretary Fetch
er OF the state department, himself
a former ambassador to Mexico.
The situation of the American
troops on the Rhine has been forced
to President Harding's attention by
the recent advance of allied forces in
to Germany. The only announcement
made has been that the state and war
departments were in accord with the
policy of the previous administration
in SO far as it provides for non-par-
in the allied advance, and
that on the other hand withdrawal Of
the American army was not immedi-
ately under consideration.

u. s. FARMERS HOLD
LARGE GRAIN CROPS

gton.-Larger stocks of grain
were held on farms March l this year
than on that date in any other year
in history Wheat was the only ex-
ception, the holdings in 1916, the year
following the only 100000, 000-bushel
crop, having exceeded this years hold
ings by 100000 bushels.
Almost half of the country's record
corn crop of last year remained on
farms March /, more than a quarter
of the wheat crop and almost half of
the large crop of oats, according to
the department of agricultures esti-
mate. The large crops of last year
and decreased grain prices are be-
lieved to be largely responsible for
the heavier holdings. Holdings of
corn we're more than half a billion
bushels larger than year ago, while
wheat holdings were about forty-three
million bushels more.
Iowa, premier corn state, had 100,-
100000 bushels more corn on it's
farms than on March 1, 1920, while
Nebraska's holdings exceeded last
years by 100000 bushels
With a few exceptions, the prin-
cipal wheat producing states were
holding larger stocks on farms than
year ago. Farm holdings of Kan
sas were largest, being about five
million bushels more than year ago;
Nebraska's holdings were second
largest and were more than eight mil
lion bushels larger than last year,
while North Dakota's stocks were
third largest, about 100000 bushels
greater than last year.
