TUB C1TIZKX, WKDXESDAV, MAY. 1, 1011. AUTOS NOW TO CLEANSTREETS New Machines Can Sweep With out Raising Dust, NEW YORK TO USE THEM. Motor Driven Cars Can Clean Com munity Without Water The Dirt Is Sucked From the Pavement and Car ried to the Body of the Machine. The advisability of introducing an auto street cleaner is being seriously considered by the New York street cleaning department. Tests hnvo been made of a now type of street cleaning machine which have impressed many of the officials who have something to do nbout the welfare and improve ment of the city. The demonstrations showed that the streets can he thor oughly, noiselessly mid dustlessly cleaned. The machines, which ure manufac tured and operated by the Emerson Contracting company, as was shown in the tests, can. at the will of the operators, clean the streets either by a sweeping or n (lushing process, it thus having a distinct ndvantago over the various types of flushing machines In that cleaning can be done without wa ter as well as when using water. It is not intended thnt the machines are to be purchased by the city. The Emerson company's offer is that the street cleaning depnrtment shall lease these machines for the use of the de partment and pay for such use at a stated price per 1,000 square yards of streets cleaned, the Emerson company paying all costs of operation and main tenance. The machines, which require but two men to work them, are motor driv en and built in different sizes to suit different conditions of traffic and street width, with a carrying capacity for sweeping proportional to the width of brooms. The brooms are five and nine feet in width, and the sweepings arc instantaneously thrown into con veyors that carry the sweepings to the AUTO STREET CLEAN EB. body of the machines, which hold five and ten cubic yards' respectively. The process raises absolutely no dust, thus avoiding the spreading of germs and doing away with other objectionable features of the present day method of cleaning streets. The machines when filled can bo driven to the nearest dumping station, emptied and the work resumed. One of the claimed ad vantages of the machine for flushing purposes over the other types now on the market is that it will clean 1,000 square yards with forty gallons of wa ter as against 400 to 050 gallons used by other machines, and wet sweepings, too, are taken up into the machine Just as expeditiously as are the dry. No sweepings are washed into the gut ter, catch basin or sewer. Texas Improvement Club a Success. The Civic Improvement club of San Antonio, Tex., looks back upon tho year 1010 as one of distinct progress In civic betterment. Its educational work has Included the introduction of the study of civic improvement into the public schools, so that when the young student leaves tho high school to as sume the responsibilities of citizenship he will be fully grounded In its princi ples. The leaguo has also worked for tho establishment of a municipal band to give free concerts in tho plazas and parks, for tho removal of all unsightly billboards and fences, for new ordi nances making such Improvements compulsory and preventing further en croachments on the river, for cleaning up vacant lots and planting trees and flowers and for establishing play grounds. Prizes For Home Gardens. Tho offering of prizes for home gar dens Is now receiving considerable at tention in many cities, for tho commit tees on awards are completing their work. Thoso premiums are offered by civic organizations, business Arms and Individuals for general Improvement, best gardens and window boxes, and tho high praise thnt is given the re sults In tho public press nnd by those interested In tho movement Is proof that nothing beautifies our homes and cities more than horticulture and Is more easily and readily appreciated. The florist should certainly give this movement his hearty approval and do all in his power to make the world more beautiful. H' ... .t .. i T i i .Ti ....... .

NEVER WHIPPED A KID. Record of Schoolteacher Who Has Quit After Thirty-nine Years. Thirty-nine years u schoolma'am and never slapped, spanked or boxed the cars of i pupil that is the rer ord of Miss Mary Todd, who has just retired ns instructor of drawing and mathematics in the West Aurora till.) schools. "Spare the strap and spoil the boy" has never been tho motto of Miss Todd. No pupil in her class has ever been made to extend his little hand to be "warmed" with a ruler, and no girl she taught ever had her ears box ed for whispering. Frank Vanderllp, president of the National City bank of New York, is one of the hundreds of successful men who have often said they owed their early success. to the kind words of Miss Todd. "Kind words go further jvith the boys and girls in school than a whip ping," Miss Todd said. "I have always used one plan with pupils In my classes when they were unruly, and that was to use words of kindness. Instead of rushing for the ruler or tho strap when my pupils were guilty of wrongdoing I would place my arm around them and appeal to their sense of righteousness. My plan always seemed to be tho host. "School children are not bettered any by whippings. In my long expe rience I have found that the child who Is shown kindness nnd given ad vice after a wrongdoing reforms quicker than tho pupil who is whip ped." NEW ELEMENT LIKE RADIUM. College Professor Says It Will Be Great Benefit to Humanity. Professor C. T. B. Fennell of tho Uni versity of Cincinnati told tho American Chemical society that he has discover ed a new elemey which has been ox traded from iodine nnd which Is sim ilar in Its action to radium. Professor Fennell has been working on this sub ject for the past two years. He told how he found this new clement and stated that he Is now engaged In sever al new developments with It which will bring his discovery to a better usefulness. Professor Fennell said that he came upon the element In a roundabout way while he was making experiments on another line; that he dropped that lino of research and has now found this new clement, which will make his dis covery of great benefit to humanity by reason of the fact that materials can be made from this nt a much less ex pense than with tho usi of radium.

A writer in the Petaluma Toultry Journal says of White Leghorns: "In the pullet year the pullet lays more eggs because she has more time in which to lay them. If she commences laying in September or October she will have twelve mouths of laying be fore she molts, so she can produce 180 eggs. "When she molts she is unproductive Tor nn average time of throe months, so tho next year she has only nine months in which to lay. If she does as well as she did when a pullet she may lay 135 eggs. As liens grow older they take more time to molt nnd the rests between the periods of laying nro longer, so she will probably bo unpro ductive four mmitlis the third laying year, and will dojWell if she produces 100 eggs. Beyond this It is very un certain what she will do." Rape Pasture For Fowl. Rape makes very good pasture for cither young chickens or laying hens. For best results the seed should bo sown as early as possible in the spring and allowed to got a good start before the poultry Is permitted to pasture In it. If a good growing season the rape plants will continue to put forth now foliage, which will bo sufficient green food for the birds throughout tho sea son unless the yards are overcrowded. Hens or chickens can never do their best when confined lu yards so small that a sufficient amount of green food cannot be grown. In case the chick ens strip the plants of the leaves it is a good plan to cut the stalks and keep tho fowls out until they nre again well started. Rural New Yorker. German Grafting Wax. Take in proportion one pound rosin, half a pound beeswax, one ounce tal low, half an ounce Venetian turpentine (the last to prevent running in hot weather). Place all in a ;ossel and boll. Stir well, aud when thoroughly molted pour the whole mass into cold water. When cooled off somewhat work well and form into sticks. Tills is an old German recipe and one of the best. No Profit In Poor Feed. Some stock owners argue that musty, burned hay that is a little too far gone to feed to tho horses Is plenty good enough for the cows, which, needing more roughage than tho horse, will eat it when they can get nothing else. But the unoffending cow Is sure to get her revenge in the milk pail for that kind of treatment. TREATMENT OF GOLDS IN HORSES. Remedies Should Be Applied When Disease Is Manifested. The changes in the weather during the spring months may cause the horse to contract a cold. The cold is usually manifested by a mucous discharge from either one or both nostrils, a staring coat, general depression, slightly off feed, bowels constipated and scanty passages, high colored urine. These symptoms be come aggravated as tho disease pro gresses. The mucous discharge takes on n more sticky appearance, nnd the cough Is quite frequent when tho horse is exercised. The cold may extend into the throat, 'causing considerable soreness, as ' is shown by the horse protruding the head, tenderness from manipulations of the throat and frequent coughing. If the cold is neglected it becomes chronic and may last for months. In this condition the animal loses flesh, the coat remaining rough and good feed apparently doing the animal no good. Preventive treatment is, of course, much easier than medicine. One should keep the horse out of drafts while warm. Blanket tho animal dur ing cold weather whllo In tho stable. If obliged to work the horse during rainy weather or in severe storms a canvas blanket to keep tho horse dry is necessary. Medicinal treatment consists of steaming the nose, using a pall of hot water to which is attached a sack, the other end being cut so as to allow tho steam to enter tho nose. A pint of raw linseed oil to open the bowels Is betieflcial. A hot poultice of Unseed meal applied to the throat will relieve tho tenderness there. When tho pa tient begins to improve n course of tonics is Indicated. C. Ij. Barnes, Col orado. . i Hens Thrive on Clover. With, plenty of clover hens will re qulro llttlo other feed so long as the clover lasts, but as fowls nro very fond of this plant they must bo moved from place to place if their numbers nro very largo or tho clover will be eaten off too clean. r Improving the Sheep Flock.
