THIEF OF TIME

The secretary Of the company
had sent out his official call for a
meeting of the board of directors
of one of our local companies. The
notice announced the fact that
the meeting would be held at a
o'clock, and bore also the added
injunction: "Please be prompt
Four were required to consti-
tute a legal quorum, and at the
hour three arrived. The impatient
three sat around and looked at
each other, yawned, and waited
for the necessary fourth man to
come. They were busy business
men and anxious to be on their
way. Twenty minutes passed and
still progress halted. Finally one
of the three stretched himself and
exclaimed:
"Who was it once said that
promptness is the thief of time"

The Standard Oil Co. of New
Jersey is staring the manufacture
on a large scale of new product
known as "petrohol."
The product is made from a
new alcohol contained in the
gases which arise from the use of
the cracking process in the refin-
ing of crude oil. This alcohol is
known as iso-propyl, and while it's
existence has been known for
some time by chemists, it has only
been made in small quantities,
alphabetically, from acetone.
These gases formerly were used
as fuel to operate various station
airy engines in use at the refinery,
but by patented process invent.
ed by Carleton Otis the propylene
in the gases can be refined. The
gases from the pressure stills are
run through sulphuric acid, which
takes up the propylene content
The mixture is then washed with
water, removing the sulphuric
acid, and leaving the propylene
which is then ready to be refined
into the new alcohol product
"petrohol."
1t has been found that the new
alcohol can be obtained cheaper
than either wood or grain alcohol
and can be used for any purpose
for which the other two alcohols
are adapted with the exception OF
medicines.
Samples of the new product
have been sent to different indus
tries and apparently its big initial
use will be as solvent in the rub
ber, varnish and dye industries.-

Hints For Sirup Makers

The necessity for cleanliness
and uniformity in making home
made sirup is evidenced by the
fact that of 5000 cans of sirup
gathered from various localities,
it was found, according to the
United States Department of
Agriculture, that more than one
third had sugared partially, a few
had sugared solid, and the sirup
in some was too thin to- be classed
as sirup. Fifty-odd cans contained
sirup that had been made from
frozen cane; in one can out of
every ten a bee or a wasp was
found, while many of the cans
contained smaller insects. Careful
boiling to exactly the right dens-
ity and the use of a strainer when
sirup is packed. i'm the cam will
help to eliminate these difficulties.

CORN AIDS DAIRY
COW RATION

With well-filled corn cribs on
many farms, and relatively low
prices prevailing this year, it is
time, says a feeding specialist
from the Dairy Division, United
States Department of Agriculture,
that correction should be made of
the impression found i'm certain
localities that corn is not good
feed for dairy COWS. Certain re-
cent inquiries on this subject in
dictate that the use OF corn in the
dairy ration is not understood by
all dairymen; and it is hoped that
correction of this impression
may Lead to- greater utilization
of the large 1920 crop for dairy
cattle feeding.
"When it is fed for a defrite
purpose, with a complete knoWl-
edge Cf its Limitations, as we'll as
its true worth, corn is one of the
best and cheapest grains We have
than can be used for economical
production of milk" says the
feeding specialist. Some dairy
men avoid feeding it altogether,
ON account of the mistaken idea
that it is not suited to a COW pro
ducing milk. This is because it is
so generally usede for fatteming
both hogs and cattle, and because
it has not been successful when
used alone for dairy-cow feeding"
The function of corn in the ra.
tion is to furnish the animal with
material for producing heat, en-
ergy, and fat; but is rather low
in protein and deficient in ash
When fed alone, it does not supply
largely the nutrients which make
bone, muscle, hair, and the caseir
in milk. Consequently, in com
pounding the grain ration it is
necessary to add to corn some

feed which is high in this subst-
ance, such as bran, linseed meal,
or cottonseed meal. Bran lis USE
full because it not only lightens
the ration, but helps to balance it.
Corn-and-cob meal is largely used
in feeding dairy cows, and 1T has
one advantage over corn meal in
that it is more bulky, although!
not so palatable. Usually, when
corn forms a large portion of the
grain ration, protein also should
be supplied by feeding some leg
luminous hay, such as alfalfa or
clover, for the roughage in the
ration.
Since CORN can be grown on
most dairy farms, supplies energy
in cheap form, and is palatable,
and since, when it is made into
silage it provides the cheapest
most efficient form of succulence,
every dairyman should have the
information that will enable him
to- make corn the basis of a sue
cessful ration for economic al
milk production.
Farmers Bulletin No. TAB, The
Feeding of Dairy Cows, contains a
discussion relative to tine digesti-
BILE nutrients found in corn, and
gives samples of grain mixtures
of which corn forms large part

KNITTING CRAZE
PREVAILS IN VIENNA

InVienna just NOW there is as
great craze for knitting as
there was in England during the
war. This revival is due to- Major
Bateman, the American Red Cross
commissioner, because it Was
cheaper for America to furnish
garments for the people of Aus
tria. He organized a band of
"Volunteer Knitters" whose num-
tber has now grown to 10000
women and 100000 children. The
yarn with which they work is
Furnished free and the finished
garments, most of which are for
the smallest children, are distri-
buted through American organiza-
tions.
Austrian women invented the
so-called "continental' method of
knitting, which is said TO he faster
than any other and involves fewer
motions, the familiar click of the
needles for instance, being en-
tirely absent. They claim to be
the best knitters in the world and
have already turned out thous-
ands of garments, using up the
wool faster than vt can be sup
piled.

LONDON. Nov. 2.-Premier Lloyd
George has definitely cancelled his
passage on The srca,ner Aquitania. on
which lie was to have proceeded 10
the United States November . TO at

This fac: became officially known
here tonight for the first time.
II had been known. however. for
some days that the critical stage the
Irish negotiations had reached prob
ably would prevent Lloyd George from
sailing on Saturday.
Owing to the grave turn in Irish
affairs IL Is not even possible 10 fix
provisional date 10. tho Prem;c.'s

Washington at the carlies, momcu,

The cancellation by the Premier OF
his passage Is considered a favorable
rather than an unfnvprable sign OF
the progress OF the Irish negotiations
The Interpretation placed OH il is that
Lloyd George hopes that few days

him TO see n settlement reached. or Mt

In this connection. Importance Is at
