Lime and Liming.
"Weill When is the expense go-
ing to stop? What with high grade
seed, new machinery and well bred
livestock, the end of expenses seems
never to be in sight, and now they
tell us we have to put on. lime on
our land and even some say use fer-
tilizers. We never did this in the
good old days, but it is pretty hard
to get the yields we got then." Have
you ever • heard a man make such
statements at a Farmers' Institute or
other gatherings? He is looking at
his problem from the wrong angle.
Everything that costs money is ceta-
logued as an expense, rarely as an
investment. In his grandfather's
time Ile quite agreed it was good
business to spend money to clear up
the field, and build new fences, but
as time has gene on he fails to appre-
ciate the fact that we never can stand
still, progress must be Made or we
go backward. Hence a good many
of his fellows axe taking up with this
idea of good drainage and the use of
lime, etc. But just as in other walks
ence. Fertilizers carry nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash. They da
not sweeten the soil only in so far
as they may contain a little lime in
their co'inposition. Fertilizer;r,, feed
the soil and craps. Lime supplies
carbonate of calcium or magnesia
which does not feed the crops but.cor-
' Teets soil sourness. For best results
your land should be limed as well as
fertilized, but do not mix lime with'
fertilizer or put it on lit the same
time. Itte you do there is danger of
some of the available plant food of
the fertilizer going back to the tui-
' available form due to chemical action
between the fertilizer and the lirne.
Put the lime on a week or so previous!
to the fertilizer or any time during;
that period of year when the crop is
not growing. Put ,the fertilizer on
when you are prepring to plant the
crop. Rift above all . things, remem-
ber that liming is not fertilizing.—

The Mysterious Walking
Stich.e f life when h men become impressed d if `
anii at- is aextraordinary story that
kir k ,\ Miine tells about a British
Officer. a spiritualist named Mullins,
who inherited a walking stick from a
•close friend Who had been killed in
battle. :tiullin: believed that with the
stick he had received a spiritistic
m eeage saying that. the stick would

t'l'op. Aew dace later. when Mu,-

men mei:blue gun a tall. thin lean ap-
peared on the extreme right and
Climbed + a1ui y over the tee, It was
Mullins. He carried no revolver: his
tin hat. was on the back of his head;
his Boat collar, for some reason, was
turned- up. Both his hands were in
ie pockets and in the crook of his
left armlay the famous stick.
'With an air of pleasant briskness,
he walked toward the Boche machine
greener. He neither hurried nor
dawdled. He just went to the ma-
chine gun. He had a hundred and
fifty yards to go. and from time to
time he drew his right hand out of his
pocket, fixed his glasses more termly
on his nose, and returned it to his
pocket again.
That Boche machine gdnner may
have thought Mullins was coining to
surrender. The astonishing spectacle
may have disturbed his aim. The
numerous heads that popped up to
gape at Mullins'a back may have kept
hila too busy to attend to Mullins.
There may have been other reasons—
I do not know—but at any rate, Mul-
lins was not hit.
When Mullins was a yard away
from the machine gunner, he took his
right hand from his pocket, withdrew
the stick from the crook of his left
area, and in a friendly way hit the
German over the head with it. When
the man collapsed, Mullins picked
him up by the collar, shook him to
see if he were shamming, dropped
liim, replaced the stick in the crook
of his left arm, fixed his glasses on his
nose, took the man by the collar again
and started to drag him to the British
trench. Once or twice he got a little
confused between the stick, the pris-
oner and his glasses, and he hesitated
between dropping the stick and fixing
the glasses with his left hand and
dropping the prisoner and fixing them
'with his right. But in the end he ar-
rived safely at the trench with all
three possessions. Once there, he
handed the prisoner over, and then
stood beaming dawn at the company
commander.
" Well," he said, pushing his glasses
termly on his nose, "and what about
the jolly old stick now?"

1 What I am driving at is a blunder
i 1 came across the other day. A Man
I in one of our good counties had used
"agricultural" lime. For some reason,
I most likely that of bad drainage he
Idid not see much result from the ap-
plication of lime, hence ,he is down
on the use of fertilizers. He thinks
ethey are an unnecessary expense and
,{ possibly thinks that they are some-'
1 what of a fake. You may know the
i difference, reader, between lime and
fertilizers, but for the sake of at least
half a dozen men in the province that
should know better I wish to take
i time to explain that liming is not fer-
tilizing, never was and never will be.
j Cleaning out the cow stable isn't
! feeding the cow. Putting lime on the
soil to make the home of the plant
right is not feedingthe crops. This
l is the big point to get clearly in
I mind. Lime is a house cleaner. When
the folks at home twist the furniture
all out of place, put your hat and coat
on a different peg and entirely upset
the order of things in the house in
spring. you notice they usually white-
wash the walls. This is partly to
make them clean and bright and part-
ly to make the room sweet and
healthy. When you put lime on the
soil you do it for very much the same
reason. As the plant matter in the
soil decays it very often produces con-
ditioas in the sail which we call sour
soil. Under such . conditions good
clover will not grow, neither will
many other crops do their best. if
you add lime it sweetens the soil and
makes conditions proper for the mil-
lions of small forms of life or bacteria.
to go ahead with their work in the
soil breaking down plant and miner-
al matter so that it can dissolve in
the soil waters and be used to feed
your wheat, oats, corn and other
crops. But the lime itself does not
feed crops. Whitewashing the kit-
chen didn't get your meals, but it
made eonditions a whole lot more
1 pleasant when things were straight-
ened away so that your household
l enjoyed .their meals better. Beside
liming the soil you must add plant -
food either in the form of barnyard
manure or fertilizers if you are go-
ing to get largest and best quality
crops.
Now never be caught saying that
because you used agricultural lime
you have fertilized -your soil You
might just as well condemn the use
of automobiles because you had a
rough ride in a wheel -barrow some-
time or other. Lime on the soil
makes better yields even where no
plant food is used, and equally as well
where plant food is added. This has
been proven by many tests. Ohio
Experiment Station' in a field test ex-
tending over more than 20 years
shows that by liming the soil once
in a five year rotation the yield of
wheat was increased from 10.65 bus.
per acre to 14.98 bushels or 41 per
cot. This was where lime was added
without any barnyard manure or fer-
tilizer. Where fertilizers were added
albee the average yield of fertilized
wheat rose to 25.04 bushels per acre,
Vat where lime was added two years
before the fertilizer was used the fer-
tilized yields- rose to 29.49 bushels
per acre. You see then that lime is
responsible for an increase in wheat
of about 4 bushels per acre. New
York Aviculture' : Experiment Sta-
tion aptly summarizes the value of
lime as follows, "The Ohio experiment
illustrates the fact that ,lime does not
take the place of other fertilizers or
manures but supplements them,"
The next ,time you hean a fellow
talking about fertilizing his soil with
lime take time to explain the differ -
A self -feeder for hens that costs
practically nothing, never clogs up,
and never wastes feed is somewhat
of a boon, according to my experi-
ence. It consists merely of a light
wooden box about four inches deep
suspended four or five inches from the
floor, and a piece of one -inch -mesh
poultry netting cut to fit loosely in-
to it. This wire is to be put on tap
of the feed. It settles down as the
feed is consumed, and effectually
prevents any from tieing thrown out.
If a piece of heavier wire is bound in
around the edge, this added weight
will keep the piece of poultry netting
in plate, even when the box is nearly
full. The idea in having the whole
thing suspended is to keep the hens
outof the box, which it does.
These feeders are so inexpensive
that.there is no excuse tor not using
enough of them to give even the more
timid hens access to feed at all times,
thus doing away with one of thy, chief
causes of lowered egg yield in large
flocks.
Arid phosphate is a fertilizer that
can be used with considerable profit
on corn, potatoes and oats, and in
orchards, gardens and on lawns, and
for top dressing wheat and pastures.
For health's sake drink plenty of
water; six glasses a day are not toa
many; and eat plenty of fruit - and
vegetables. This will be found far
better and more conducive to long
life than to neglect this simple,
natural method, relying on drugs to
correct the careless treatment of the
body.

action is nearly always the result of
forethought. The person who dis-
covers a fire may at once sound an
alarm, or he may attempt to eater
guish the fire with the means at
hand. The majority of fires are ex-
tinguished before they get to going
well, and quick action often averts
serious loss. Most fires have a small
beginning, and if discovered at once
can easily be extinguished. When
fires are caused bylightning or ex-
plosions it is a different matter, and
in the right conditions the rapidity
with which fire spreads is scarcely
conceivable to those who have not
seen it.
The number of dwelling -house fires
that are extinguished at once is in-
ealclalable, but it is usually in trying
to extinguish insignificant fires that

clothes taking fire, Except from a

The highly inflammable texture and
the shape of their clothing reader any
other course too hazardous. A fatal
accident may occur in less time than
it takes to tell of it. When a wo-
man's clothing takes fire she gener-
ally dies, because the fire, rising,
reaches her face and she inhales it.
A person on fire should instantly drop
to the floor, or others in the room,
if there are any, should throw her
down ande wrap bedclothes, rugs or
something of the kid, round her to
smother the flames,
Smothering is generally the best
way to extinguish k small fire. The
blaze that runs up :a curtain is often
alarmingly big, but it usually dies
quickly. The same is true of fire on
the fringes of tablecloths and other
fabrics of similar kind.
It is a very serious matter for a
lamp to explode or be upset, or far an
oil stove to take fire. An attempt
to remove the lamp or the stove from
the building is reckless in the extreme
Ashes, sand, flour or earth should
be used to smother the blaze, but
quick action with clothing, table-
cloths, and so forth, may be effective.
Every house should have at Ieast one
fire extinguisher. With that a per-
son can stand twenty or thirty feet
away and still work effectively. The
contents of an extinguisher are suf-
ficient to check the average fire in
a dwelling house. Garden hose when
attached to a faucet may be very ef-
fective. Hand pumps and large plant
or spraying syringes are useful, and:
a bucket of water will work wonders;
but the principal means to be relied
on in house fires is a blanket, rug
or similar thing writ which to
smother the blaze.
If a really determined attempt is
made to check a fire by throwing wa-
ter on it from buckets, keep the water
running into different receptacles or
into the sink or bathtub, so that it
may be dipped out; but wherever
there are no special appliances, beat-
ing out and smothering the fire is
best, though water, judiciously ad-
ministered, is a good supplement.
Protect the hands, work quickly and
keep your head.
If the fire is in a clothes closet, a
place in which dwelling -house fires
often originate, close the door at
once. This, by the way, is an excel -
Three Ways of Lighting the Farm Home
BY D. WILLIAMSON.
On my own farm, I have a very
good system—a small air-cooled kero-
sene engine with a thirty -two -volt,
electric generator built into it. The
storage batteries are so large that I
need to ren the engine only once Qr
twice a week—about four or six hours
at a time. My 'home is quite good-
sized, but two or three gallons of
kerosene a week give me all the elec-
tric light I can use.
Some years ago, I had another
system; the generator was driven by
a belt from a line -shaft. Just which
is the better depends an circum-
stances; the built-in system uses less
fuel, takes less space and has a self"-
starter;
elf=starter; the"belt-driven system does
not need a separate engine, but is run
from the same power that does your
pumping, grinds your feed, etc. A
four -horse engine is needed to run
the line -shaft, I have found; a smaller
one can be used if the generator is
belted direct to the engine pulley.
Don't make the error of iliuying too
small an outfit; I did that the first
time. My storage batteries had to
be charged every day; consequently,
they wore out in three years or so.
My present plant has been in •service
nearly as long, and the batteries are
as good as new.
If you have a fair-sized brook .run-
ning :through your farm, you can
easily drive your electric generator
with a small . •water -+wheel; several
concerns make a specialty of farm
water• power plants. The more fall
you have, the better, but four feet
will run a breast -wheel, provided you
have a gabd" volume of . water. A
very small stream, with eight or ten
feet of 'fall, will drive an overshot
wheel.
'kbe first cost of a water-driyen
outfit is usually about the same as
an engine -driven one, unless you have
to build an elaborate dam, sluice, etc.
The great saving comes in the operat-
ig cost, water is decidedly less ex-
pensive than gaaoline or kerosene, I;
know one farmer who • did not buy
any storage -battery; his stream is so
large that he lets his generator run
all night, and uses the current direct.'
There have been some attempts to,
use windmills for running generators,'
but I believe these attempts have not
been very successful. At any rate,
there are no wind -driven electric out-
fits on the market, so far as I know.
Nansen, the Arctic explorer, lighted
his ship from a windmill. Some day,
this system will no doubt be perfected
for ordinary use
But, maybe you prefer gas instead
of electricity—some of my neighbors
do, at any rate. They have acetylene
generators installed in small frost -
proof buildings, for if the water an
the generator freezes, gas stops flow-
ing, of course. Acetylene gas, you
know, is produced by letting water
come in contact with lumps of cal-
cium carbide. The venerators are so
built that when you turn on a gas -
burner anywhere in your house, the
lessened pressure lets the water flow
against the carbide. Shutting off the
burner raises the pressure'and pushes
back the water. The whole thing is
perfectly automatic. Acetylene- gas
gives a beautiful, clear, white light --
very pleasant to read or work by. It
is quite possible to cook with gas,
too; meetecity people do that in the
summer -time, you know. A gas -stove
is run on the same ptdnciple as an
oil -stove, but it is less trouble, and
does some things (like broiling or
toasting) rather better. '
Some people still use the old-fa-
shioned gasoline -gas system; it OCT.
tainly has some good points. Gaso-
line can be had anywhere, and quite
a small amount .will make a large
volume of gas. For cooking, it is
rather better than acetylene', but the
Eight is not quite so brilliant, even
when a mantle is used.
So here are three different light-
ing systema—electric light, acetylene
gas, gasoline gas. Take your choice,

INTERNATIONAL LESSON.
FEBRUARY L
Peter and John in Samaria—Acts 8:
4-39. Golden Text—Acts 1: 8.
4-8. Philip has already bean men-
tioned as one of the "seven men of
good report" chosen to have charge
of the distribution ef aid to the poor
from the funds so generously pro-
vided by the willing gifts of the
Christian community, Like Stephen,
who was also one of the seven, Philip
was a zealous missionary and advo-
cate of the new faith. Long after-
ward Paul visited bim at Caesarea,
where he was known as "Philip the
evangelist," and where his four
daughters were co-workers with him
in the church of Christ.
See 6: 5 and 21:.8-9. Philip "went
dowu to the city of Samaria," in
spite of the fact that the Jews dis-
liked and would, ordinarily, have no
dealings with the Samaritans. Tho
Spdrie of Christ was working in the
hearts of these first followers of the
Cross, over -earning ancient preju-
dices and hatreds and breaking down
the barriers of race and religion.
The multitudes gave heed. The
Samaritans also were expecting a
Saviour, and the visits of Jesus had
prepared the minds of many of them
for the gospel which Philip now
preached to them. And where .the
gospel was received it brought then,
as it .brings to -day, healing and "much
joy."
9-13. Simon, known to the early
Christian church as Simon Magus, or
Simon the Sorcerer, acquired consid-
erable notoriety, and was regarded
by the Christian folk of the first cen-
turies as a very bad man, first of all
heretics and "first-born of Satan."
Justin Martyr, a writer of the first
part of the second century, says that
the Samaritans worshipped him as
God, :because of his successful prac-
tice ef magic arts. The fact that he
was baptized by Philip is good evid-
ence that, while baptism accompanied
the public confession of faith in
Christ and was regarded as the sacra-
ment by which a person was admitted
to the Christian community, it did not
necessarily involve regieareration or
guarantee his entrance into the King-
dom of God. Though baptized he re-
ceived no gift of the Idly Spirit, and
Peter, when he came, declared that
he had "neither part nor lot in this
matter."
14-25. They sent unto thein Peter
and John. The apostles first prayed
for the new converts that "they might
receive the Holy Ghost," or, as we
would say, "the Holy Spirit." This
they regarded as the prime necessity
of the Christian life, first and great
est et, the gifts of God. It was, what-
ever form it might take, an 'insured
certainty of the spiritual presence of
Jesus Christ with them, or of God
in Christ and, consequently, an ex-
perience doth of joy and power. It
brought also a clearer understanding,
a more vivid realization, of what the
life of the Lord Jesus Christ, His•
death, and His resurrection, meant to
them and to the world, and so a glad
and whole -hearted giving of them-
selves to His service. 'See John 14:
16-27; 15: 26; 16:' 18-14; Rom. 8:
14-17. In the teaching of the apos-
tles the Spirit of Christ is the Spirit
of God (Rom. 8: 9), and is regarded
as dwelling � in every true follower of
Jesus (1 Cor. 8: 16; 6: 19; 2 Cor,
6: 16; 2 Tim.. 1: 14; Jude 19), and as
leading him in the way of faith and
righteousness (Rom. 8 : 14; Gal. 5:
18.)
Simon coveted the joy and power.
of this new life, tilled with the Spirit 1
of God, and thought that . the power,
to bestow it could be purchased, as'
no doubt the secret of his own magic
art could • have been purchased. Peter's
answer to his pr§umptuous request
is an indignant reproof and denial,
The gift of God is not bought and
sdid.Itis counsel to Simon is ""I3e-
pent,�� and Fray. For he is still in
the "gall," Or "bitterness," of iniquity
and in its bonds.

dace to whom his errand brings him;

Scheme to Utilize Coal -Mine
Refuse. •
A company has been formed in the
Nottingham, Eng., district for the pur-
pose of promoting a scheme for the
utilization of refuse from coal mines. k
It is believed that, when the project.
Is fully established, •- it will attract
other industries to the city and dis-
trict.
Plans have already been drawn for
the erection of a super -power station, m
briquetting plant, coal -washing plant,
concrete -products works, low tempera-
ture distillation plant, and a light rail-
way. Land has been allocated for the
construction of the light railway and
low-temperature distillation plant. It
is intended that the waste from the
distillation plant be used in the super-
power station. The briquetting plant
is expected to use the inferior -waste
from the super -power station, and, in
conjunction' with this, there will be a
coal -washing apparatus. The coal -
washing plant will deal with the re-
fuse from grits within a radius of 16
miles, and the good coal will be
mixed with the refuse from the low-
temperature distillation plant and
"cemented" with • pitch, producing a
compound of high commercial value.
The concrete products works is ex-
pected to play an important part local-
ly,
particularly in view of the exten-
sive amount of construction work to
be carried out in the Nottingham dis-
trict in the immediate future.
The fuel problem in Canada is no
less important than in England. Ca-
nada should not only watch develop-
ments in coal conservation in the Old
Country, but, it is to be hoped, will
not always wait for a lead.
