CONVENIENT TO FARMERS

Makes Farm Life Attractive and Lessens Danger From
Fire—Can Very Readily Be Used for Carrying
Water to Dairy and Barns. <
Can farmers have running water,
hot or cold, in their dwelling houses?
Most certainly. What will the cost
be? Fifty dollars and up, depending
upon the size of the house and the
kind of equipment needed. This makes
possible the bath and toilet room, pro
tection from fire, the easy washing of
windows and walks, the sprinkling of
lawns, the irrigating of gardens, and
all the other conveniences which a
few years ago were thought possible
only in cities, where big water sys-

terns were available, writes Clarence
iA. Shamel in Orange Judd Farmer.
This is one of the things that makes
farm life attractive. It lessens the
work in the house, insures a fine lawn
and garden, reduces danger from fire,
adds greatly to comfort and con
» venience in every direction.
The way to secure this is to install
a water supply system, with a pres
'sure tank in the basement. This pres
• sure tank is so arranged that by
।pumping it full under strong air pres
sure the water is forced all over the
house, and is available for the bath
room, toilet room and the garden or
’fire hose. The water is distributed
about the house exactly as it is in
city homes, by means of galvanized
iron pipes. Where a small building
is to be supplied and the amount of
water to be used is hot large, the sys
tem can be installed for SSO. For the
average house S9O is a better figure.
Where the house is large, and where
sonsiderable amounts of water are
needed for the lawn and garden, and
possibly also for washing carriages,
automobiles and horses, a larger sys
tem should be installed, costing up to
$l5O. The cost of the system, there
fore, depends upon the wishes of the
owner and the demands that w'ill be
made upon it.
Its installation is easy, and its op
eration is exceedingly simple. Any
pipe fitter or plumber can put in the
{plant so that it will work perfectly.
!AU that is needed for operating is to
keep the tank pressure up to the de-

sired point. This may be 20, 40, 60 or
1 100 pounds. A few strokes of the
। pump, if the work is done by hand, is
i sufficient. If a lot of water is used, of
i course the amount of pumping will
i increase. By being economical in the
I use of water, that is to say, by wast
ling none, this matter of pumping is
not at all a serious problem.
The most satisfactory method of
pumping, however, is to use a wind-

It is well known to experienced
.breeders and nature students that
iblack-plumaged birds will once in a
'■while have white offspring; this ex
plains the origin of what in this coun
:try is known as the White Holland tur
nkey. So keen an observer as Teget
meier is on record as saying that “It is
well known that most birds, wild as
well as tame, occasionally produce per
fectly white individuals of more deli-
mill, or what is much better, a gaso
line engine. Every up-to-date farm
ought to have a small gasoline engine,
which can be utilized not only for op
erating this water supply system, but
for churning, sawing wood, cutting
feed and doing a dozen and one other
jobs about the farm. It would take
only a few minutes of pumping to
raise the pressure in the tank to the
desired height. With the engine, it
will not be necessary to be economical
in using water, provided the well is a
good one and the supply of water
large.
I have a system of this kind in my
country home. It was installed four
years ago and cost $75. Previous to
, that time nothing of the kind had
been used in my neighborhood. We
take care of the waste water and
sewage by running a large tile from
the bathroom, one-quarter of a mile
distant, to a large cistern, located in
the center of a big field. This is dis
infected about twice a year, and is
> easily handled. I have never had any
trouble with the water pipes, even
during the coldest weather. Neither
1 have I had any difficulty with the
i waste system. In fact, the water sup
ply is practically perfect, and I don’t

‘ pie. The system can also be used for

• course, depend entirely upon the
! wishes of the owner, and is simply a
matter of cost of pipes. It can very

the stalls, or elsewhere, as desired.

She Took No Chances.
A happily Redded matron is the
principal of an odd Incident, which
one of her “dear” friends relates.
Before the matron’s engagement to
her present husband was announced,
she met her “dear” friend on the
street. The new matron was hurrying
toward one of the large jewelry stores
of the city.
“John gave me an engagement ring,”
she explained, without a shadow of
embarrassment, "and I am going down
to see how much it cost. You see, I
got the jew'eler’s name off the box,”
and she hurried on.
The same friend said that another
bit of information the matron got was
the commercial standing of the pros
pective husband, which she secured
by paying for a special report from
a commercial agency.
Confusing.
Craig Biddle, at a dinner in New
port, was describing the changing
odds on the Jeffries-Johnson fight at
Reno.
"Eight to four and a half on Jef
fries —nine to six the other way about
—three to one and a quarter —it’s
rather confusing, isn’t it?” he said.
"In fact, it’s almost as confusing as
the two girls’ talk about a secret.
“ ‘Mary,’ said the first girl, ‘told me
that you had told her that secret I
told you not to tell her.’
“ ‘The nasty thing,’ said the other
girl. ‘I told her not to tell you I told
her.’
! “ ‘Well,’ said the first girl, ‘I told
her I wouldn’t tell you she told me —
so don't tell her I did.’ ”
Beware the Dog!
A family moved from the city to, a
suburban locality and were told that
they should get a watchdog to guard
the premises at night. So they bought
the largest dog that was for sale in
the kennels of a neighboring dog fan
cier, who was a German. Shortly
afterward the house w’as entered by
burglars, who made a good haul, while
the big dog slept. The man went to
the dog fancier and told him about it.
' “Veil, vat you need now,” said the
dog merchant, “is a leedle dog to vake
up the big dog."—Everybody’s.
Remembering Each Other.
He sat on the sand at Atlantic City
in a bathing suit. About ten feet
away she was drawing pictures in the

He noticed her complexion, her curves
and the glint of gold in her hair. He
wanted to speak, and yet— Finally he
summoned courage and walked over
to her.
“Didn’t I talk with you for about
five minutes two summers ago?” he
asked.
“Two years ago,” she said dreamily.
“Two years ago—let me see —did I

find something else about the right
size to fit the place where it hung.
Josnah is so artistic that he can’t
bear to see the gallery thrown out of
proportion by having more pictures
on one side than the other.” —Ideas.
