(Oontrlbuted by Ontario Department 01 Agriculture, Toronto.) A plumbing system consists or. three main parts: Water service, fix- tures, and waste pipes. The Water Service Pipes. The duty of these pipes ie to con- vey the water from, the supply to the fixtures. They should be galea- oiled Iron of first-class quality,, and the size for the house is Winch, except the one that connects the hot n or water Moiler to tie kitchen ranee furnace, whack ised-inch n sine. Pike is bough by the foot in small quantities and' by the 100 feet in large quantities, and the price for galvanized iron pipe at the preeent time is 10 cents per toot tor the Yeeincb, and 12 mate for the adeiuoh, The amount required tor a house is about 120 Leet, 'Gut it v rtes with the size of tits :house and the la au Particularly the location of the bat-. room in relation to the kitchen, also whether sett water ie on tap as 'well as hard water. Secttoua of ptpo are joined together by threaded noup' huge, and red lead or a special paste is used oft the threaded parte to make the joints tight and preserve the threads from rusting and becoin- frig permanently set. The water in these pipes is usually under 30 to 50 pounds pressure, and all joints must be positively water -tight, particular- ly so it the pipes are 'iatd udder floors. Teat the Pipes for Leaks. Atter they are metalled and. before they are covered up either under floors or inpart ilea 1 s, and Wore they are covered up for good, the water should he turned on under good pressure and a thorough teat made for leaks. not only at the joints hut all along the pipe line, as a small hole or split would cause a ser - Jetta leak. Be sure the man operating the threading tool knows bis job and does it properly. It is very essential that tbe water pipes be located sate from frost, and tbeiretare it Is highiy advisable to keep them away from the outside wall of the house or stable, if possible. It is particularly I:operative to keep the pipes connecting the bot water bailer to the kitchen range or furnace fire box from freezing, as a stoppage in this line would cause a blow-out upon the fire being started M the morning, and serious loss of lite or property would likely occur, and lastly it is very poor economy to install anything leas than the highest quality of galvanized pipe, never use wrought iron pipe ; tor water, galvanized always. Plumbing Fixtures. These comprise the kitchen sink. laundry tubs, bathtub, lavatory sink, and closet. There is a considerable variety in the style and quality of these articles, and naturally a large range in prices. You should insist on a good quality of enamel coating on the fixtures, this is very important, The standard dimension of some of theee .fixtures are as follows:— Kitchen sink, 20 x 30 inches. This sine should have a back, and one drain board, at least, of wood or enamelled iron should be provided for, two are better. The sink should be located at the most convenient weight above the Boor for the women using It; nottoo low, else undue stoop- ing has to be endured. A 5 -foot bath- tub is the standard size. It should be placed far enough from the wall to make easy cleaning around it pos- sible. The lavatory sink may be se- cured in a shape either for side wall or corner installation. In the instal- lation of a closet insist on a stop- cock on the feed pipe to the tank, so that if the tank needs repairing the water can be turned off just be- loij the tank. Any standard type is satisfactory. The cost ,of a standard outfit is about as follows:. Lavatory sink, complete with trimmings, $24.50.. Closet' complete, $35.00. Kitchen shalt, 29 x 30. inches, with bibbs and trap, 123.35. Laundry tubs, $56.00. Bathtub, 4% or 5 feet, $66.50, or total of $204.35. The cost of the sell pipe, water pipe and connections including labor for instaling them and the fixtures is about $195, mak- ing a total of about 440.0.00. A Drainage System. This part of the plumbing system consists of the soil* pipe or stack that extends from the sewer up through the house and out beyond the roof. AU the wastes drain into this pipe and by it are carried to the sewage (Deposal system. Each fixture is con- neeted to this main .drain by a smaller pipe having a trap to keep bad odors fawn coming back from the sewer. The stack is 4 -inch cast-iron pipe made in 5 -foot sections, and the joints are caulked with oakum and lead. The other pipes are 2 inch. and 1% inch, either iron or lead. Installing this part of this work, also tbs water service pipes, is commonly known as "roughing in.' Space will not permit of further treatment of the subject. Write the Department of Physics, O. A. C., Guelph, for advice, and for a copy of Bulletin 267, "Farm Water Supply and Sewage Disposal."— R. R. Graham, O. A. College, Guelph. Fey gardenersrealize the import aiwe of pulverizing the soil as deeply as it is ploughed. No matter how per- fectlythe surface is prepared, if the soil is coarse . and lumpy below,- the plants will not thrive. Large air spaces in the soil are a detriment, but a large number of very small air' spaces in the soil are a benefit. Should Ripen at Least a Few Ears, The 4rraisr Is Nourishing Frozen Corn Preferred to. Immature-- l arvesting Root Crops. (Oontributed. by Ontario Department of Agriculture. Toronto.) The highest grade of corn silage is made Prem those varieties of corn that produce a large proportion ot grain in the total weight 01 crop. Large growing southern varieties ot dent corn that give an lu mense green weight of fodder ger acre wilt as a rule produce a very Poor silage under Ontario conditions. Many dairymen prefer dint varieties and the smaller stalk varieties of early maturing dents for silage purposes. From such a rich sweet silage can be made. The weight per acre may not be nearly as great as with tate late maturing large growing dents, but when the silagee are compared on the digestible dry matter bests the smaller growing earlier maturing dente and dints have the advantage'. Ilse Corn Ripening Some Ears. T past The eaa erienc the a # has p e of A siiawn that only such varieties ae will ripen at least a tow ears should be used. In early years of silo ex- perience in Ontario the preetiCe was to grow big corn. Little attention was paid to the grain yield; much poor silage resulted from the twelve to fourteen -teat stalks that went in- to the silo without the very necea- sary two pound well giaxed ear, Hard experience bas demonstrated that there le more milk, beef or butterfat in a cubic Toot of silage made, from cern that would husk out one nun Bred bushels per acre, than !rout a corn crop that coulees of big juicy atalku only. The Best Varieties. Golden Claw Essex Dent.Wiscon- sin 7, Bally, North Western Dent, Comptou's Early, Longfellow, sa- ver's North Dakota and King Philip are varieties well suited to Ontario conditions. These: varieties will ripen in the southwestern counties of On- tario, and they will generally reach the roasting ear state over the greater part of the dairy section ot the Province. The greatest quantity of digestible dry matter is to be ob- tained from a Corn crap when it has reached tbe eondition to Out for husk- in;g. riga enough to complete matur- ity in the shock. Another advantage in growing the earlier maturing va- rieties is that such cart be ensiled early in September and the land pre- pared for autumn wheat, an lmport- ant factor now that the European Corn. Borer has become a menace to corn growing. Frozen Corn Preferred to Immature. The freezing of corn after It has reached the denting or early glaze stage does notmaterially injure in so far as silage making goes. It is always advisable to run the .risk of frost, rather than ensile the corn in an immature state.—L. Stevenson, Sec, Dept. of Agriculture, Toronto. Harvesting Root Crops, Roots crop should be taken up be- fore the weather becomes too wet and disagreeable in the fall II in any quantity. It is slow work at any time, and becomes much more so under cold damp conditions. Lift the roots with a digging fork and twist off the tops, putting them in piles and covering with the tops. If a large area is to be lifted, and one is expert with a sharp hoe, he can very quickly remove the tops, but they will not keep quite as well. The roots should be ploughed out, throw- ing them as much as possible on the top. Bins with slatted sides and bot- tom should be used for storage where possible, as this gives the roots a chance to sweat. If the storage room temperature is above 40 deg. F., cover them with sand. Carrots should not be deeper than two feet in a bin, others may be four feet. Where ceder @forage is not available use pits. These should be three feet wide, two or three feet high and of any length. ,Run the pits north and south where possible and have them on well -drain- ed ground. Put a layer of straw on the ground and cover first with straw six inches deep, then six inches of earth, and as the frost gets harder cover with' 'fresh strawy manure. Have ventilators every 15 or 20 feet, as all roots sweat in storage. These may be filled with straw during cold- periods. All roots should be as free from dirt as possible when put in storage. It is often advisable to leave a few days in small piles so that at the second lifting any adhering will be moved.—A. H. MacLennan, O. A. Col- lege, Guelph. Freemartin Heife r's. Twin calves—both of the same sex —will breed with just as much cer- tainty as though they were born singly, When twins are born male and female the female is known as a freemartin and: is usually sterile. There have' been cases where free- martins have conceived, but they are rare. Probably not over one out of 100 will breed. It is just as unusual for the bull of male and female twins not to breed. A Good Whitewash. Slake one-half bushel of fresh lime with boiling water, covering the re- ceptacle to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve,and add seven pounds of fine salt, pre- viously dissolved in warm water; three pounds of ground rice, boiled to a 'thin paste and stirred inn one pound of white glue, soaked first in: cold water until swollen, thin care- fully melted over fire, To this mixture add five gallons of hot water and let it stand covered for .a few days before using.
