WIRELESS PIANO.
Success After Inventor Toiled for
; Thirieen Years.
Ira F. Gilmore, of Blocmington, ni,
has invented a wireless piano upon
which he has experimented under many
disadvantages for the last 13 years. In
the beginning of his venture he tried
first in the United States to get his
reeds made and failed. So he
Jent to work on a piece
of steel one quarter of an
inch think and six inches wide, drilled
it and filed it until he had made a five-
‘octave comb reed, and placed it on a
bridge and sounding board. Then ke
picked and hammered it and discov-
ered that he had a fine hard-tone, one
that had been eagerly sought after for
many years by all who tried to im-
prove the tone of the wire piano. He
then began to search for a music box
manufacturer, who could manufacture
the comb reeds or music tongues. He
corresponded with a firm in Switzer-
land, the real home of the music box,
several years without avail. So, after
finding that he could not get the music
tongues made either in his own or for-
eign countries, he and his sons under-
took the task and were successful.
They made a rough model of the wire-
less piano at an agricultural machine
shop under great disadvantages. They
made the combination—the music box
reed with the piano keyboard—and
their efforts are crowned with suc-
cess. :
Indigestion, congested liver, impure
blood, constipation, these are what afflict
thonsands of people who do not know
avhat is the matter with them. They drag
along a miserable existence; they apply to
the local doctors. occasionally, and some-
times obtain a little temporary relief, but
the old, tired, worn-out, all-gone, distressed
feeling always comes back again worse
than rver, until in time they become tired
of living, wonder why they were ever born,
and why they are alive unless to endure
constant suffering. To such sufferers there
is a haven of refuge in Dr. August Koe-
nig’s Hamburg “Drops, which was discov-
ered more than 60 years ago, and which is
a wonderful medicine. One trial will eon-
vince the most seeptical that any or all of
these diffictiities may be removed, and a
perfect cure effected by taking Dr. August
Koenig's Hamburg Drops. Get a bottle at
once before it is too late.
The fellow who still has the first dollar
I eer earned is pretty apt to hold on to

it you must take internal remedies. Hall's

_ When Grapevines Overbear.
‘With grapevines overbearing is the
usual cause of imperfect ripening.
When the fruit does not mature well it

should be cut back severely in the fall
aud the canes covered lightly with
earth or brush and straw. on

The Temperature o the Cellar.
The cellar, or other place in which
fruit or roots are stored, should bel
kept at a temperature of about forty
degrees above zero, if possible, which
temperature is not low enough to per-
mit of freezing and keeps the crops
cool enough to prevent rapid decay.
Keep Tools in Conaition.™
How many of the tools are dull or
implements rusty cannot be known
without an examination. Repairs
should be attended to now before
spring opens, and as tools and imple-
ments are in good order will facil-
itate work it is important that this
matter receive attention.
Cultivation of Small Fruits.
‘A general discussion of this subject
at the summer meeting of the Missouri
State Horticultural Society brought
out the fact that thorough cultivation
is necessary for all varieties. H. W,
Jenkins prefers surface cultivation
through the season... Wheat straw
mulch reflects heat and burns up ber-
ries. Discussion on dewberries brought
out the fact that they were not profit-
able unless grown in sufficient quanti-
ties for carload shipments.® The’Dbest
method of managing is to destroy old
canes every year and let new ones
come up the following spring.
Selection of Winter Layers.
Puilets should be selected for the fall
and winter layers. As a rule, hens
that have passed through the molt do
not lay profitably before January,
hence they should be fed in different
lots as it is not necessary to give them
an egg-producing diet. Six months is
about the average age &t which a
flock of pullets will begin laying. Of
course, there are generally a few in
every flock that lay yeunger. Large
breeds usually ave older than that.
As a rule, the very early hatched pul-
lets are the most profitable. During |
the last half of their first year pullets |
lay two-thirds of the time if well fed. |

Securing a Pure Ifilk Supply.
The place where the greatest care
Is needed in order to produce a first-
class product is on the farm. The bac-
teria which develop bad flavors or
which cause souring must be kept out
of the milk from the:start. Milk when
freshly drawn from the udder, under
the most thorough sanitary conditions,
containg very few germs which will
cause either souring or bad flavers.
There are two general sources of -such
germs—the air, from which the sour-,
Ing germs come, and the dust and filth |
of the stable trom which the germs
preducing the bad flavors are chiefly
developed. If this statement be true,
1nd bacteriologists are generally agreed
that it is, the natural conclusion is
that any system of supplying our
cities with pure milk which does not
control the producing end of the busi-
ness must fall short of success.
No farmer can afford to take the
precautions and supply the conditions
necessary to the production of a sani-
tary milk unless he is paid for his
product. A plan which would guaran-
tee the farmer four to five cents per
quart for his milk will solicit his at-
tention even if greater expense is need-
ed in producing.—Professor Charles, in
New England Homestead.
A Various Purpase Building.
The cut shows a building constructed
upon a bank, that will prove conveni-
ent for several uses. In winter the
room in the bank is used for the stor-
age of roots and other stock foods,
while outside is set a boiler for cook-
ing the same for hogs, poultry, etc.
In this open shed water can also be
heated and hogs dressed, o hoisting
arrangement being prov aed “overhead
During the hot months of summer the
bank room is thoroughly cleaned and
used as a milk room, the open shed
outside being used as a shady place
for churning and working the butter.
The building will thus be found ex-
ceedingly convenient all the year
around.—American Agriculturist.
Winter Spraying of Fruit Trees.
The spraying of fruit trees during
the winter should not be neglected.
Before the leaves staft the trunk and
every branch of the tree should be
well sprayed with a solution of one
pound of copper sulphate In twenty-
five gallons of water to check scab,
codling moth, bird moth, tent cateb-
pillar, canker worm, plum curculio
and San Jose scale on apple trees, to
be followed.up after the blossoms fall
by the regular bordeaux mixture of
four pounds each of sulphate of cop-
per and lime to fifty gallons of water.
Some prefer to use six pounds sulphate
of copper instead of four pounds, but
we are not sure that this is any better
than the other, while for peach trees
that nave put out their leaves the
use of three pounds of sulphate of
copper to six or nine pounds of lime
is thought strong enough for fifty gal-
lons of water. But we are now speak-
; ing of a winter spray before the leaves
come out. The mixture of fifty pounds
each of lime, salt and flowers of sul
phur is used on the Pacific coast for
the San Jose scale, but in our Bastern
climate it does not seem to be as ef-
fectual, as the frequent rains wash it
off. A mixture of pure lime made as
a thin ‘whitewash and used on peach
trees two or three times in the ‘winter
has been recommended as a spray
that will keep the leaves and buds
from starting early enough to be
killed” by the spring frosts.—Boston

Farm Dairying, i :
It has been very noticeable of 1...
that the papers are giving a gre
of space to the subject of far 5
ing, whereas a few years ago t ~The 7
filled their columns with articles in
favor of the public creamery, if, in
fact, they did not, as was frequently
the case, slander private dairying.
Like ¢very movement, the Yublic
creamery had its reaction. Creameries
were built where none were needed.
Large ones were built where small
ones only should have been planned.
Some were built where there may have
been milk enough, but no dairy knowl-
edge among the patrons sufficient to
insure intelligent handling of the farm
end of the business.
Now the private dairy is coming
again to the front. It is more and more
recognized as a very important item
in agriculture.
A startling feature in the dairy
world just now is the failure of large
numbers of public creameries. Com-
ing at a time of great prosperity it
has been a matter of comment and
speculation as to its capse. From
dispatches appearing in the news it
gecems that these failures are attrib-
uted to good times—strange as it may
seem. It is claimed that high prices
for grain and beef have enticed so
many away from dairy work that the
milk supply has fallen off until the
creameries can no longer: run at a
profit. The same dispatch says that
farmers ‘who are in dairying and are
thus left with closed creameries in
their neighborhoods are urged to or-
ganize co-operative creameries.
‘We fail to see.just the point here,
Conditions will be much the same,
whether a creamery is co-operative or
otherwise, so far as supply of milk and
economy of operation is concerned.
It will be much better for these dairy-
men to go into private dairying and
be at once independent of the public
creamery.
And it
is short-sighted policy to
inevitable reaction must come, and
when it does, dairying will pay when
every other industry is suffering from
hard times. It has been so in the past,
and history repeats itself.—M. A, Car-
son, in American Agriculturist,
Concrete Poultry Houses,
A Western poultry keeper, T. W.
Geer, of St. Francois County, Mo., has
solved the problem of eggs in winter,
and sound, unfrested combs in the
spring.
ple and inexpensive way. At the same
time he has insured fertile eggs in
midwinter, something ordinarily very

hard to obtain. He has accomplished
this by means of concrete poultry
houses that are free from dampness
in the most rainy seasons, and as
warm inside in the coldest days as a
cellar.
In constructing the house an eleva-
tion is thrown up a foot or more above
the surface. In this elevation the
stone base for the walls is laid, then a
frame of any good stout material is
made, as shown in the illustration.
The base piece is imbedded in the con-
crete, and the wall is made two inches
wider than the wooden uprights, on
each side of them, and as the wall is
carried up, the uprights are inclosed
in the concrete.
lime and sand, small stones, cheap,
broken bricks and pieces of hard wood.
In fact, any hard substance may be
worked into the wall. It is leveled up
and ‘smoothed over by the lime and
sand mixture.
At first the originator used cement in
the latter mixture, but, finding the
lime answered as well and cost less
than one-third as much as the cement
Lhe abandoned the cement. When
finished the walls are smooth and
white, will last a lifetime and harbor
no vermin whatever. In making the
room Mr. Geer uses a four-inch scant-
ling placed on edge. On top a water-
proof roof is laid. Under the rafters
tongued and grooved ceiling is nailed
and the four-inch space is packed with
forest leaves or some other inexpen-
sive material. Double windows, with
stout shutters for the night defy the
frost.
In houses of this character Mr. Geer's
fowls mate and lay all winter. Feb-
ruary 6 he took off an incubator hatch
of 162 chickens from a total instalment
of 225 eggs tested down to 199 fertile
ones. He attributes the high per cent,
of fertility of his eggs in winter to the
natural warmth of his fowls in the
concrete houses, which is superior to
. the artificial warmth generated by
furnace or hot water pipes. In houses
of this kind the early-hatched pulletd
and the early molted hens lay all. win!

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Business Year Opens With Fine Pros-
pects—Increase in Wages Helps
Purchasing Power.
R. G. Dun & Co.s Weekly Review
of Trade says: Despite the interrup-
tion of a holiday, taking of inven-
tories and other disturbing elements
incidental to the closing of the old
Jear, the past week has been far
from dull. Consumers were not per-
ceptibly lessening purchases, while
the approach of higher freight rates
accelerated shipment of goods. New
wage scales have become effective,
largely enhancing the purchasing
power of the people. The new year
opens with every prospect of excep-
tional activity in all branches of
business. Railway earnings thus far
available for December show a gain
of 7.7 per cent over 1901 and 10.9 per
cent over 1900, while for the full
year there are increases of 4.1 and
16.5 per cent respectively, notwith-
standing the heavy loss of coal traf-
fic. The declines in clearings for the
last week are not actually as unsat-
isfactory as the percentages would
suggest, owing to the fact that last
year’s figures include one day of
January and those of two years ago
embrace two days of January, when
payments are abnormally heavy. The
question of higher freight rates com-
plicates the situation regarding iron
and steel, but new orders are con-
stantly coming forward, and the ac-
tivity of plants would equal capacity
were it not for the fuel shortage.
Quotkhtions of all products in this
industry are fully maintained, with
a tendancy toward still higher prices
hecause of freights and fuel. The
fitst advance is expected to occur in
wire nails. No new features have
developed in the footwear situation,
prices remaiging firm and order
books full. Domestic hides are dull,
prices again declining. Textile mills
are busy, with only a hand-to-miouth
home demand for cotton goods, bu
export buying for China continues
large. Farm products weakened as
visible supplies increased, and re-
ports from the west indicate that
much more grain is offered for ship-
ment thar the railroads will accept.
Exports of corn are steadily gaining.
For the week at Atlantic ports 2,-
335,403 bushels were sent out, com-
pared with only 347,193 bushels in
the corresponding week a year ago.
Atlantic exports of wheat, including
flour, amounted to only 1,495,061
bushels. against 2,705,044 bushels a
year ago. and arrivals at interior
cities were 3,773,265 bushels, com-
pared with 3,736,369 bushels last
year. Wool tends upward, ship-
ments to the mills continuing heavy
and inquiries numerous.

Steel Road an’ Agreeable Surprise.
That steel road in Murray street,
New York, laid as an experiment by
the Automobile Club of America, is
serving so much better than the
said it would that the
chances are it will be generally
adopted in the cities where machine
riding is popular. To the general
surprise, it has proved less slippery
in ice and snow than cobbles are, for
cobbles have round edges and tip the
hoofs of horses slightly forward or
backward. Wheels of all vehicles
move with ease when they leave the
granite and touch the flat plates of
steel.
Novelty in Tops.
The latest novelty in tops is one
that whistles and sings as it goes
round. In the hollow upper portion
are a pair of metal discs and a ham-
mer, while round the side are sev-
eral holes leading into the hollow.
The air is sucked into the hollow
chamber through an opening at the
crown of this new toy, and is driven
through the openings in the side,
causing a whistle. The hammer
strikes the discs and so prcduces the
ringing.
