| honey a day, getting from that amount
; about 20 lbs. of wax. I have been nia-
j king these different inciters all on the
i same principle. The last one works
perfectly, writes William K (Jreene of
Imperial, Cal , in Gleanings of He«-Cul
, ture.
I The construction is shown in the
drawing. There is, first, a galvanized
iron pan two inches dtep, with < cor
rugated bottom, tin- corrugations run
; ning crosswise. This is 2S inches long
and 18 inches wide, and tapers down
j to six inches at the end where the
j honey and wax flow out. At one cor-
ner, as shown, the construction per-
mits of heating the knives in the wa-
ter of the tank below.
The tank holding the water is one
inch deep at one end and one half
inch at the other end. This makes
a very small amount of water to heat.
Under the water tank is soldered a
false bottom, forming the hot-air oven,
which confines practically all of the
| radiating heat from the gasoline burn-
er. This false bottom is shown on a
small scale under the main drawing.
The large hole in the center allows
the heat to spread over the entire bot
tom of the water-tank. The air-space
is about three-fourths inch, and there
are braces to hold the water tank
from sagging down on to the false
bottom.
I find that one burner of a gasoline
stove turned as low as it will run. is
sufficient, to take care of all the cap-
pings w hich one can remove in a day.
I let the honey and wax run off to-
gether, and after the wax hardens I
remove it. Later 1 put It through a
press and separate what little slum-
gum it contains.
The water can be brought to a boil
in about 20 minutes. The only open-
i ing to the water tank is at the right
hand corner, where the 4x4-inch
j space is left for the knives.

WHY YOUNG FOLK LEAVE FA'RM
Among Principal Reasons for This Re-
grettable Movement Is Lack of
Rural Social Life.
(By HOWARD H. GROSS.)
j There are a number of reasons why
I the young men and women forsake
the farm home and try their luck In
j the city. This is too often unfortunate
| for the Individual and It Is a menace
to the welfare of the country. Among
j the principal reasons for this regret-
table movement Is the lack of social
life In the rural districts—there is so I
little going on—the horizon is narrow
j —the numbers met are too few and
' the meetings of ten too Infrequent—
the opportunity for companionship is
restricted as to numbers and often
nilsmarrlages result because Che
homes and not the hearts join.
The country schools have not kept
pace with the town school. The boys
and girls cannot get the education
they wish, and ought to have except
they go away to school, and this they
are doing by tens of thousands. The
, school spirit and social life of the
town appeal to them and they become
as it wi re weanel away from the
farm they get the town microbe
I What Is the remedy? Why It is
good roads, and the consolidated
township school. With these a strong
helpful social lite will develop, taking
not a few adjoining farms only, but a
whole township and perhaps more
The consolidated central school en-
ables the youth to get the equivalent
of a high school education and live at
home upon the farm. Thus they are
not exposed to the temptations that
always beset and which strongly ap-
peal to them; they have the influence
of home and mother without being de-
nied good educational advantages.
The consolidated school with the ex-
pense of taking the children to and
from It over good roads may cost
something more than a half dozen red
8choolhouses on the < rossroads, but
the work done Is so much better that
there Is no comparison. The best In-
vestment any township can make Is to
put mom * Into good roads and con-
solidated schools l.et us remember
that the very best product of our
farms is the boys and girls in the
farm home.
Issue bonds for the roads nud build
as main miles as possible upon the
main highway s The use of tfce roads
is worth three times the interest on
the bonds
Live Seeds.
Are you sure the seed you plint nnr!
sow has In It the life germ unim-
paired? Planting and sowing dead or
half-dead seeds costs the farms of
this country millions on millions of
dollars. Alway put a sample of your
seed In warm, moist soil and see if
It has thi vitality needed. This will
save you disappointment and dollars
at no cost.

Common Law.
The common law of Rng!an 1 is an
ancient collection of unwritten max-
ims and customs of British, Sr xon and
Danish origin, which, by long use and
approval, have become fundamental in
Knglish jurisprudence. Many of the
principles of the Knglish common lav
hold in this country and throughout
the English speaking world aa well.
Comet Direct Cause of Death.
Louisa of Savoy, mother of Francis
I., was so frightened by the appear-
ance of a comet that she declared it
to be a signal for her death. And
curiosly enough she died three days
later under this fatal b'lief. Coming
down to more recent years, ore finds
that In 1853 people all the world over
were frightened of the comet.
"Fundamental."
Of the many lawful Knglish words
that are misused in Wall street, nono
Is more strained than the word "funda-
mental." One man says the funda-
mentals are all right, and he cares
about nothing else; another retorts
that the fundamentals are all wrong,
and neither knows what the other
means. Neither knows cxactly what
he means himself.
An Odd Pair.
An unusual sight can be seen at
Marischal college, Aberdeen, where
a female monkey is nursing a young
white rat. The monkey carries the
rat In its arms, kisses it and cuddles
it in the most affectionate manner.
At night the rat goes outside the cage
and bleeps on a piece of matting on
the top. The unusual companionship
of the pair is arousing much Interest
among professors and students at the
college.
Freaks of Lightning.
Lightning has struck, plucked feath
