Old combs, drone comb cut out. combs

Water.
was not worth -very much—at least I
thought so—but I got considerably
more than I expected.
All the materials needed to construct
the apparatus I used were an old tin
bucket, a piece of old tin to make an
outside jacket to eoufiue the heat o
the oil stove around the bucket, some
scraps of wire and strong galvanized
iron, a scrap or piece of wire nettir.
and some nails in place of rivets.
While on the subject It may be ..ell
to say that wire nails heated redhot
and then slowly cooled become soft
enough to make excellent rivets. I had
the oil stove already.
If you melt some combs in a recep
tacle of any kind with a quantity of
water and let it coo! and then investi
gate carefully, you will see that the
wax has come entirely above tbe water
being lighter. The refuse, cocoons,
mothwebs, etc., being somewhat light
er than water, form a mass partly
above the water line and partly below,
something like the sketch.
I said that below the water line
there would not be any wax. That is
true only when by sufficient stirring
and boiling the wax has had the chance,
or, rather, the time, to disentangle it
self entirely from the refuse. Now.
when the quantity of wax Is consider
ably larger than the amount of refuse
all that needs be done is to take the
cake out and scrape off the under part
composed of wax and refuse mixed
The scrapings can be added to the next
melting.
But when the amount of refuse is
considerable there is not enough wax
to rise over the refuse, and the cake
you take up is a mixture of refuse and
wax. The problem was how to keep
all the refuse under the water line. 1
first melted the combs in the tin bucket
with water enough to fill it about two
thirds, stirring and boiling long enough
to disaggregate the combs entirely. 1
then put in the sieve made of wire net
ting re-enforced by hands of galvan
ized iron and fastened it there. Then
I added enough boiling water to bring
the wax entirely above the sieve and
let the whole boil long enough to give
all tbe wax time to come through tli6
netting. When cold, it is something
like the second sketch.
One difficulty I met. I had to boil
the whole thing quite a time in order
to get all the wax to rise. After tliink-

lng about it I concluded that by add
ing a considerable quantity of salt to
the water the wax would rise much
quicker, and it did.
Why does the wax come on the top
of the water? It is because the wax
is comparatively lighter than water.
That difference of weight Is the force
that pushes the wax above the water.
Now let us add, say, one pound of
salt to the gallon of water. The weight
of the water will be increased by about
12 per cent, and the force that pushes
the wax above the water will also in
crease in proportion.
She Eas Succeeded With Fowls and
Enjoys Being' a Poultry Crsrk.
The family pceketbook on tbe farm 53
ofien a lean one, and however free it
may bo to all members of the family it
is not ample enough to supply dhc de
mands, modest though they may be, of
{he girl on the farm. So I had long
thought of poultry keeping us a means
of adding income, but the poultry and
henhouse on the farm were cf the typ
ical kind, or. in other words, no kind.
I was absolutely ignorant of breeds—in
fact, all the booklcre cf poultry farm
ing—and Lad a private opinion not at
all complimentary of “fancy poultry.”
With ail the rest the “head of the fam
ily” considered hens an unmitigated
nuisance, with very few redeeming
qualities and none at ail where the bal
ance sheet was concerned. At this time
fortune dropped Into my lap in the
shape of a present from a friend c? a
setting of pure b-rc-d Colored Dorking
eggs, and to give further interest in
them the mother lien died when they
were a day old, and seven dear little
fluffy fellows, with their funny upturn
ed fifth toe, looked to me for a mother’s
care. No incubator full of possible
prize winners with imported ancestors
have ever given me the pleasure c?
those funny .little fellows. They came
to believe themselves members of the
family and pretty nearly became so.
They proved to be good stock and in
oculated me Into a most aggravated
case of the chicken crank disease.
For several years I kept only the
Colored variety, but the assistance cf
the friend who gave me the eggs and
the premiums I won gave me so many
calls for stock that I added the White
and Silver Cray varieties and have
now about 300 fowls. I have five hen
houses, three colony houses for chicks,
incubators and brooders, bone mill and
root cutter. Hess are ail yarded except
chicks, which have free range. The
fowls have paid for the whole plant,
and they never net me less than SI
apiece a year. They pay net only for
feed, but every expense of houses, re
pairs, additions, subscriptions to poul
try papers, entry fees—everything, in
fact, that pertains to the business.
With the help of my sister, who be
came my partner several years ago. I
do ail the work, and as one of us can
drive a nail we do nearly all our build
ing. We have also converted the “head
of the family” to the belief that prop
erly managed “hen3 do pay.”
Our lino of work is principally rais
ing fancy stock for breeding and for
sale to tbe fall and winter exhibitors,
especially to the men with “strings cf
birds,” and eggs for hatching, which
we ship to all parts of the United States
ml Canada. Side issues are broilers
f chicks off color, or for cross breed
ing. for which the Dorking is largely in
’emnnd from its value as a table fowl.
We exhibit at a few of the larger
--hows. I have been 12 years in the
business, and while every year I real
ise more fully Low much there is to
learn in the care of poultry—and that
t is no easy road to wealth—I do enjoy
the business, with its modest: income,
that is my “very own.”
Among the many mistakes was the
lack of courage to branch out, adver
tise and spend money. I have been
penny wise and pound foolish too many
times. With what fear and trembling
did I make my first importation of
eggs, yet nothing ever paid me better
than the two lone chicks I raised from
them. And I did not actually dare to tell
my friends the first time I paid up iuto
two figures for a bird. I have no fabu
lous returns to give, as I go over my
books, but I believe that one who will
“stick to it” through all the myriad
trials and discouragements of a breed
er, who is no more ready to give up in
times of failure than of success, will
enjoy, as I do, being a poultry crank.—
L. Goodell in Poultry Monthly.
Obeyed Orders.
An old Yorkshire farmer was walk
ing out one da j- looking very glum and
miserable. He was a typical York-
shireman, and he dearly loved a joke.
But jokes seemed a long way off just
then, and the old man was thinking
deeply when he was accosted by a
tramp, who made the usual request for
a night’s lodgings and something to
eat, as he explained he had had noth
ing for two whole days. The effect j
upon the farmer when he said this was
magical.
“Why, man,” he said. “I’ve been look- ■
ing for you all day.”
And then without more ado he
knocked him down and walked cu him
from one end to tbe other. The tramp
got up. looking very staggered, and
asked bim why he had done that.
“Well.” said he, “my doctor has or
dered me to walk on an empty stomach,
and now that 1 have fulfilled his in
junction 1 can go and have a good feed,
and you can come with me.”--London

A Good Grape For Home Purposes.
Though the Isabella is no longer con
sidered a desirable variety for table
purposes by our specialists and the
dealers, it is still worthy of some at
tention by the rural home builder. It
is especially hardy, quite vigorous, and
usually supplies, with a minimum
amount of care, a fairly good crop of
palatable fruit, more of which should
be eaten by our people. It is an excel
lent variety for jelly making, and
grape jelly rates very high in the esti
mation of the American housewife. It
is likewise one of the best varieties
from which to make grape must—i. e.,
uufermented grape juice—for which
there is a steadily growing demand in
one form or another.

Field Corn In the East.
Many a farmer has been saying that
there was no profit in growing corn in
New England, when western corn
could be bought at the market price of
several years past; but when they find
that a .dry season in the west has in
creased the price of 10 cents a bushel
and may add 10 cents more to that be
fore the season is over, they rather
envy the man who has a field that will
fill the old corncrib and give a good
stack of corn stover to save the hay
next winter.—American Cultivator.

The Nose Indicates Charneter.
A large nose is always an unfailing
sign of a decided character. It be
longs to the man of action, quick to
see and to seize opportunity. A small
nose indicates a passive nature, one
less apt to net, although he may feel
as deeply. He will have many theo
ries, while the possessor of a large
nose will have deeds to show. Persons
with small noses are most loving and
sympathizing, but their friendship is
not the active kind.
A nose with the tip slightly tilted is
the sign of the heartless flirt. A long
nose shows dignity and repose, a
short nose pugnacity and a love of
gayety. An arched nose—one project
ing at the bridge—shows thought. A
straight nose shows an inclination to
ward serious subjects. A uose turning
up slightly indicates eloquence, wit
and imagination. If turned up much
it shows egotism and love of luxury.
A nose that slopes out directly from
tbe forehead, that shows no Indenting
between the eyes, indicates power. If
the nose is indented deeply at the root
the subject will be weak and vacillat
ing. A nose that turns down signifies
that the possessor is miserly and sar
castic.—Ladies’ Home Journal.
