HANDY REEL FOR CHALK LINE
Winds Cord With Great Rapidity and,
Being Flat, Will Lie Wherever
it May Be Placed.
The old method of winding a chalk
line was to cut a notch in one end of
a stick and wrap it around the stick
by a peculiar twisting motion. Only
a person skilled in such work could
wind the cord up with any speed. Even
then if the line was laid down a roof

partly wound up, the rounded surface
of the twine would cause it to roll oft.
A California man has surmounted both
these disadvantages at one clip. He
has Invented a reel which winds with
great rapidity and which, being flat,
stays wherever it is put The reel is
made of one piece of strong wire, bent
■into the shape shown in the cut One
end fits loosely into a wooden handle,
In which it revolves, and the other fits
tightly in a turning handle, which is
used to revolve it. The line, of course,
winds in the shanks between.
ALLOY IS EXTREMELY LIGHT
Metal With Practicable Tensile
Strength and Specific Gravity Less
Than That of Aluminum.
Aluminum has become so indispens
able in all sorts of metallic products on
account of its extreme lightness that
the attention of the commercial metal
lurgists has been turned to the In
vestigation of the combining properties
of magnesium, which is even lighter
than aluminum, but lacks the tensile
strength that would make it valuable
in practical work. Aviators would
doubtless welcome the discovery of an
alloy of magnesium from which it
would be possible to construct the
frames of their machine",.. Q««r
tensive use of a metal with a spe
cific gravity of 1.7, and all sorts or
uses have been suggested, but until
the last month or so magnesium has
refused to combine.
A French patent now describes a
process of making an alloy of zinc
and magnesium containing as high as
90, and in some cases 96 per cent, mag
nesium. This alloy is said to be a
metal with practicable tensile strength
and a specific gravity almost 50 per
cent, less than that of aluminum.
The same inventor describes an al
loy of calcium in practicable form
which has the remarkable specific
gravity of 1.58.

Contagion In Metals.
Prof. Ernst Cohen, of the Univer
sity of Utrecht holds that metals suf
fer from "contagious diseases," anal
ogous to those of living beings. Among
these so-called diseases one of the
most striking is that called “tin pest.”
Sometimes a block, or plate, or metal
of tin, attacked by this malady, crum
bles and falls into dust, and sometimes
warty protuberances appear on the
surface of the metal. Various other
metals, which have been hardened by
plastic strain, suffer from a malady
which manifests itself by a spontane
ous re-crystallization. The most re
markable cases occur with lead and
hard-drawn brass. These troubles are
not due, as has been thought, sim
ply to moisture. Temperature plays
a great part in producing them. The
most singular fact, perhaps, is that
"tin pest" is capable of spreading by
contagion.
CHEAP POWER STORAGE PLAN
Water Could Be Pumped Into Tanks
by Use of Windmills, or by Sun
Engines, or by Both.
The power storage plan of Prof. R.
A. Fessenden, first made known at the
last meeting of the British Association,
for the Advancement of Science, de
pends upon the use of intermittent
cheap power for pumping water from
tanks sunk 1,009 feet or so into the
earth, and keeping the water in sur
face tanks until needed. The power
thus stored would be made available
at any time by causing the water to
drive turbines on its way back to the
lower level. The water could be
pumped in the usual way by wind
mills, or by sun engines, or, better, by
both. Solar heat is to be utilized by
means of a large tank containing a
shallow layer of water and having a
steam-tight covering of wired glass. It
is stated that the heat can be made, to
boil the water, generating steam
enough to run a low-pressure turbine,
and it is calculated that a "sun tank”
650 feet square would develop more
than 1,000 horsepower for seven hours
a day through the year. It seems evi
dent, however, that such a result could
be had only in a favorable climate.
Comparing the expense of different
sources of energy, Professor Fessen
den has estimated that power from
water stored by the sun and wind
pomps would be about one-fifth of that
of steam, one-fourth of that of gas, six
fifths of that of Niagara Falls and
somewhat less than twice that of the
cheapest water powers.

Compassed Gas-
Within the last ten years the prac
tice of transD-ilting compressed gas
from some central station to slnall
towns has grown rapidly. In Illinois
one plart now supplies nearly 4,000
consumers, in Indiana another has as ■
mar'.’, and in California a plant has I
atout 5,000 consumers on its lines of
flpes. Another plant is now project
ed to supply 8,000 consumers, and it
is estimated that 100 miles of piping
will be required. The system has been
developed" to compete with electricity.
The mains used vary from two to six
inches in diameter. When the gas is
delivered the pressure must be re.
duced, and this is effected either by
a local low-pressure distributing sys
tem, or by service governors connected
with each meter.

PURE-BRED IS BEST
Good Cattle Found to Be Cheap

Experiment Made by State of Illinois
Show Choice to Fancy Animals

Scrubs on Same Feed.
In discussing thersubject of breed
ing in cattle at the Round-Up Farm
ers’ Institute at the Mississippi A. &
M. College. Mr. W. G. Harding, gen
eral live stock agent of the M. & O.
railroad, spoke as follows:
“Having been raised in the vicinity
of the blue grass farms and stock
raising establishments which were
all handling pure breeds of stock, it
did not occur to me that' any one
would handle scrub stock unless they
were so unfortunately fixed as to pre
vent them handling any other kind.
I do not remember when the first
question was put to me in regard to
pure-bred cattle, but I always assert
ed that good cattle were the best to
raise before I could find data to con
vince people that I was right.”
“Only one experiment has been con
ducted to my knowledge for the dis
tinct purpose of ascertaining the dif
ference in value between the blooded
animal and the scrub, and done with
car lots of cattle. The experiment to

ture says Farmers’ Bulletin No. 192.
On the basis of prices charged for
commercial fertilizer, It is estimated
tfiaf the average value of the manure
annually produced by each horse or
mile is $27, by each head of cattle
$/9, by each hog sl2, and by each
yheep $2. Probably less than half
these values are actually realized in
practice.
- The urine is by far the most valu
able part of the excreta of animals.
It Is especially rich In readily avail
able nitrogen, which rapidly escapes
Into the air if special precautions are
not taken to prevent its loss. It Is
also rich in potash, but deficient In
phosphoric acid. It should, as a rule,
be used in connection with the solid
dung, the one thus supplying the de
ficiencies of the other and making a
more evenly balanced manure.
Barnyard manure Is a very variable
substance, its composition and value
depending mainly upon (1) age and
kind of animal, (2) quantity and qual
ity of food, (3) proportion of litter,
and (4) method of management and
age. Ordinary barnyard manure prop
erly cared for may be assumed to
contain on the average % per cent,
each of nitrogen and potash and 1-3
per cent, of phosphoric acid.
Mature animals neither gaining nor
losing weight excrete practically all
the fertilizing constituents consumed
In the food. Growing animals may
excrete as little as 50 per cent, of the
fertilizing constituents of the food;
milch cows excrete from 65 to 85 per
cent.; fattening or working animals
from 85 to 95 per cent. As regards
the fertilizing value of equal weights
of manure in its normal condition,
tarry animals, probably stand In the
following order: Poultry, sheep, pig,
horses.
The amounts of fertilizing constit
uents in the manure stand In direct
relation to those lu the food. As re
gards the value of msnure produced,
die concentrated feeding stuffs, such
as meat scrap, cotton seed meal, lin
seed meal and wheat brand, stand
first; the leguminous plants (clover,
peas, etc.) second; the grasses third;
cereals (oats, corn, etc.), fourth, and
root crops, such as turnips, beets and
mangel-wurzels, last.
Nitrogen of the food exerts a great
er influence on the quality of the ma
nure than any other constituent. It
is the most costly fertilizing con
stituent. It undergoes more modifica
tion In the animal stomach than the
mineral constituents (potash and phos
phoric acid), and rapidly escapes from
the manure in flrmatlon. The secre
tion of urine Increases with the in
crease of nitrogenous substances in
the food, thus necessitating the use of
larger amounts of litter and effecting
both the amount and value of the ma
nure. The use of watery foods as is
obvious, produces the same result.
Barnyard manure rapidly undergoes
change. When practicable to remove
the manure and spread it on the field

WOMEN BUILD A LOG CABIN
Structure Designed and Almost En-

cinnati Mother and Daughter.
' Cincinnati.—Did you ever see a bet

built by a woman? This typical lit
tle cabin, all complete, was designed
Und built mostly by a woman and her

;to the roof Mrs. Austoff and her
of Cincinnati, did the work.
'.Several then did the heavy lifting
and the like, but they only did as they
;were told, for this was a woman's
•work self-imposed, and here is the re
sult shown in the accompanying il
lustration.

Cincinnatians, lovers of outdoor life,
and would rather sleep in a tent be
side some rambling trout stream than
spend a vacation at Atlantic City or

; pitched in the spacious back yard of
I .the beautiful Austoff residence and
■ the whole family sleep there winter
■ and summer rather than live and
I sleep in the finely appointed residence
i just in front of the tent. Now they
prefer the cabin with its odor of burn
ing wood from the big chunks of wood
| heaped up in the open fireplace of
i the cabin to the atmosphere of the
I residence with its complicated indi-
I rect hot-water heating and ventilating
systems. Such is the love for out
door life in the Austoff family who
prefer, by choice, to live close to na
ture.
The idea came to Mrs. Austoff one
day when she looked out of the win
dow and saw workmen engaged in
cutting through a new street in the
neighborhood and destroying fine big
trees by burning up the trunks in big
; fires. Why not get those logs and
| build a log cabin? The workmen
were only too glad to have them haul
: ed out of the way. The next day the
tent in the backyard came down and
a log cabin was in progress. Miss
Austoff, home from her college board
ing school for a few weeks of va< a
tion, donned a pair of blue overalls
and did her share of the cabin-build
ing. The illustration shows the 18-

Woman s Power A

Woman’s most glorious endowment is the power - \
to awaken and hold the pure and honest love of a
worthy man. When she loses it and still loves on,
□o one in the wide worldscan know the heart agony § •
she endures. The woman who suflers from weak- M

ganism soon loses the power to sway the heart of
a man. Her general health suffers and she loses i
her good looks, her attractiveness, her amiability
and her power and prestige as a woman. Dr. R.V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.Y., with
the assistance of his staff of able physicians, has prescribed for and cured many

WHEN IT REALLY Vi/AS WARM
Incident Related by Mr. Bings Put *
an End to the Hot Weather
Stories.
“Hot in Brazil!” said the young
man who had just returned from a
trip to South America, according to
the Chicago Daily News “Well, T
should say so. Do you know, for day*
at a time we couldn’t take our after
dinner siesta on account of the pe
culiar noises.” “What noises?' asked
the blonde stenographer, innocently.
“Why, the coffee popping on the trees.
You see, the sun was so hot the grains,
just roasted before they were picked.”
The old traveler yawned. 'Rather
warm down there, bub," he rejoined,
laconically, "but when I was down
there you couldn't sleep at night.
Every once in a while there w’ould
sound the most extraordinary crack
ling noise that ever fell upon the hu-,
man ear.” "What were the sounds,
Mr Bings?” And Mr. Bings yawned
again and rqjlied: “The rubber trees
stretching themselves.” '
