A Friendly Service

This story is told of the late Thorn
as A. Edison, who was showing a
party of friends over his beautiful
summer residence, equipped with
many labor-saving devices. One ex-
ception, however, was a turnstile so
stiff that 1t required considerable
strength to force passage. One by
one, his guests pushed through. At
length one of them ventured to say,
"Mr. Edison, why do you have ev-
erything SO perfect except this awful
turnstile?" "Ah!" replied the host,
his eyes twinkling. Everybody who
pushes the turnstile around, pumps
eight gallons of water into the tank
on my roof

WHEAT CROP INSURANCE

The average" wheat grower in
the United States, who has taken
advantage of the new all-risk crop
insurance for wheat, has insured
AZ acres per farm. He has guar
anteed production of 303 bushels of
wheat for 1899. His premium cost
was 40 bushels. This is shown in a
preliminary survey of more than
$4,000 applications received by the
Federal Crop Insurance Corporation.
The production which the crop in
drainage improvements, il not main
tanned, will lose most of their value
during a period of from 10 to Is
years. Two alternatives are open, he
declares, TO neglect this improve
ment and allow it to become worth
less in a few years time. or to pro-
tect il and preserve it at its present
value"
ance policies guarantee the farm
against losses from unavoidable haz-
ards. such as drought, hail, and
rust-is based in most cases on rs
percent of the average annual yield
for the farm Only percent of po-
licies to date are for the 50-percent
coverage. Where farms are operat-

ed may represent only the tenants

Forecasting Christmas Weather

In some country districts of
France custom is observed which
is supposed to enable people to fore
cast the weather on Christmas day
and throughout the coming year,
says Tit-Bits Magazine. Twelve
onions are placed in row and on
each is placed a dab of salt. If by
Epiphany the salt on any onion has
melted, the month represented by
that particular onion will be wet. If
the salt on the twelfth onion is dry,
then Christmas day also will be fine.
At Baux, in Provence, shepherds
hold a watch-night service at which
they pray for good weather. Each
arrives carrying lighted taper and
a lamb and prays before a crib, as
the shepherds did 1000 years ago.

BLINDFOLD TESTS TELL COM.
FORT OF HUDSON AIRFOAM
CUSHIONS

In unique test conducted in
Detroit, the seating comfort of Hud-
sons new African seats deserves
the phrase "you can tell it blind
folded" according to officials Of the
Hudson Motor Car Company.
In a room containing a number
of automobile seats, visitors were
invited to select the most comfort
able cushions while blindfolded.
Seats were shifted at intervals to
obtain the most impartial results.
Scoring a clean record OF 1000
recognition for combining softness
with firm support of his body, Air
foam seats were instantly identified,
according to observers.
The adaptation of African seat
cushions to multiple coil seat spring
construction is an exclusive Hud-
son development which engineers
claim will have far-reaching infiu-
ence in the industry.
AS described by Hudson engineers
African cushions are made from the
pure milk of the rubber tree
(Latexl brought to this cuntry in
it's natural state. In manufacture,
air is beaten into it until it literal
ly turns to foam; then 1t is moulded
into cushions, The individual air
cells are not sealed but inter-com-
municate in such way that the
air flows about through the cushion
during the ride. Orderless air-cooled
and ventilated, African is widely
used for mattresses in leading hos
pitfalls, and in the latest airlinels
and streamlined trains.
An interesting INSTALLATION of
how air circulates freely through
African is obtained by blowing
cigarette smoke completely through
the cushions

MILK LED 1888 FARM CASH

Milk led all products as the larg-
est single source of farm cash in

400, 100000. This was only 6.5 per
cent. less than the 1887 figure of
$3.50, 900, 900, according to the
Milk Industry Foundation.
.'All farm cash income dropped

show, from $S,20S, 100000 in 1897
to $3.50, 100000, in 1898, exclud-
ing government payments" the state
ment said.
"These figures show the import
ance of milk as a mainstay of
farm purchasing power. They are
particularly impressive bee a s e

be from 4 to per cent. greater
during the year and sales of fluid
milk were down approximately Az
per cent from 1887.
milk delivered to homes and
stores in bottles which brings
farmers the highest price, probably
would have suffered greater con-
sumption declines but for deter
mined efforts by milk distributors
to push sales.
Cash income from milk is also
important as it is chiefly cash paid
monthly to farmers" the Founda-
ticn points out, and this is cash
that is used in the current pur-
chases of merchandise and supplies.

Common red mites are one of the
worst enemies of a laying flock. These
are found around roosts, in cracks, on
dropping boards and in nests. When
discovered, the laying house should be
cleaned thoroughly and sprayed with
a solution of one-half pint of Cresofec
and one quart of kerosene in one gal
Ion of water. Every crack where mites
are likely to hide should be thoroughly
sprayed. The birds should be kept
out of the house until the spray is
completely dried.

The Gulf Stream

The Gulf stream originates in the
Gulf of Mexico, swings around Flori-
da and up North America to the
Great Banks of Newfoundland which
turn it eastward to Europe. There,
one branch circles back to the
Azores to form the stagnant Sargas-
so sea. For years it was thought
that the stream was responsible for
warm weather in western Europe,
but this belief also is disputed.
Ocean winds should get the credit,
it is said.

A crowd is not company; and
faces are but gallery of pictures;
and talk is but a tinkling cymbal
where there is no love. This COM
municating of a mans self to his
friend works two contrary effects;
for it redoubles joys and cuts griefs
in half. For there is no man that
imparts his joys to his friend, but he
,rejoices the more; and no man that
imparts his griefs to his friend, but
he grieves the less.-Francis Bacon.

The number of eggs a hen lays is
largely determined by the feed she
gets. When she gets grain alone she
lays only few eggs. But when that
grain is helped out by carefully
blended, balanced laying mash or when
a complete all-mash laying ration
that's fortified with the necessary vi
tamins and minerals is fed, she lays
many eggs.
Proof of this is the average of the
figures sent to Purina Mills last year
by the owners of over half million
hens fed Purina laying mashes. These
hens averaged 1876 eggs per year, which
is more than double the national 81
egg average estimated for the country
as whole by the U. S. Department of
Agriculture.

Mature hens will stand considerable
cold if they are dry, so should not be
shut in too tightly to conserve animal
heat. Instead, protect them by in
sulating the walls and ceiling of the
poultry house. Insulating will keep
the house warmer in winter; and cooler
in summer.

A high feed intake is essential for
best egg production. A laying bird nor
mally eats from six to seven pounds of
feed per month-four to five pounds
of which goes to maintain her body.
If she can be made to eat an extra
half pound per month by the use of
electric lights, wet mashes, or Layena
checker feeding, it goes into extra egg
production.

A new dust spray for the treatment
of colds and roup is rapidly becoming
popular with flock owners. Called
Chlorena. it's sprayed over the birds
while on the roosts at night. It causes
sneezing, which expels the accumula-
lions of mucous from the upper res

Five to six gallons of drinking water
daily to each 100 birds is essential to
a flock of layers. In summer, the
water should be cool and fresh; in
winter the drinking fountains should
never be allowed to freeze.
Usually it's best to have some sort
of rack on which to set the drinking
fountains. This gives the birds a
place to stand while they drink. Also,
it provides drainage for the water that
drops from their wattles and beaks.
