Probably the most satisfactory homemade Iightning-rods are made by using nine strands of No. 0 gal- vanized -iron wire, twisted together, Find the total length of rod needed, running it to the grounds at both ends of the building, if the building is of considerable length. Also use the same material for uprights as for the running rod. In twisting the wires together, allow six inches of shrink to the hundred feet. Fasten one end of the wires to a stake driven into the grouod and well braced, Hook the other end of the strands to the spokes of a wagon wheel close to the hub, taking care that they are of even length. Brace the wagon, elevate the axle, rotate, and very soon the strands will be properly twisted to- gether. For uprights (which sLould be five feet high) use this same ma- terial, attaching thein to the rod when it is in position along the .pear, but before nailing it down: By cutting the uprights six and a half feet long, untwisting a foot and a half, and using it to fasten the upright to the main rod, the connection is quite easily made. The upper points of the wires in the uprights should be spread apart and filed to a point. The main rod is usually fastened to the building solidly with stout staples, often having an inch layer of cork beneath it to avoid direct contact; two spikes may be driven in the form of anx to support rod at their cross- ing point. The main rod should be grounded at least six feet deep at both ends of the barn. The single heavy cable is not con- sidered desirable as the more numer- ous smaller ones. Telephone wire is more desirable than fence wire, since its galvanizing is more durable. The necessary supplies are obtainable at any general hardware store. Bogus Silver Coins. Many sections of Ontario are being flooded with bogus 25c and 50c pieces. The banks are warning people to look ont for bad money. The counterfeits araexcellent imitations of the genuine coins and it is said about the only way to detect them as they ring true is through a slight oversight on the part of the maker. In the genuine coins the crowned head is upside down when the reverse side is read ; in the spuriour ones both sides are topped the same. It is believed the bogus coins were manufactured in Buffalo. est4e- Ye, e L. Doyon ] ,ealize 1'' ° °` Jf. This Book Tells the Advani .ow Concrete t hes of Concrete? . Aids Farmers.

The announcement made recently by Toronto Saturday Night that that 'journal had arranged for the publica- tion of a series of articles by Dr. Ste- phen Leacock and Dr. 'Andrew Mac- phail, once more serves to, remind us that Canadian writers are now receiv- ing recognition at home as well as abroad. Dr. Macphail's published volumes, such as "Essays in Fallacy," and "Essays in Puritanism," to name only two of the many, have now a cir- cle of readers both in Canada and in England which the most optimistic would hardly have predicted at the time of publication. The work of Dr. Leacock, who is the author of "Liter- ary Lapses," a volume which bas set the world smiling, is of a less serious character than that of Dr, Macphail. His optimistic humor sounds the note, and the reader laughs in spite -of him- self. The articles, as arranged for by To- ronto Saturday Night,`are twelve in number, and will alternate from week to week. For instance, on Aug. Oth appeared an article by Dr. Macphail, entitled "Canada's Loyalty," and on the following week Dr. Leacock's first humorous sketch, "How to Make a Million Dollars," appeared. The third article of the series, appearing the week of August 20th, is by Dr. Mac- phail, and is entitled "Nation or..Em- pire," The second of Dr. Leacock's is entitled "Men Who Have Shaved Me," and will be printed in Toronto Satur- day Night on August 27th. Through such journals as Toronto Saturday Night, Canadian writers on Canadian subjects are finding a home market for their work, and are no longer obliged from necessity to pat- ronize British and American pub- lishers. Sigh Cost Of Living. "Au operation will cost you $500." "And it is absolutely necessary?" "You can't live without it." "Say, doe, the high cost of living can't all be blamed on the tariff, can it?" Mrs. M. Barratt,( 6os Moroat St., Montreal, says: " A horrid rash came out all over my baby's fact arid spread until it had totally covered his scalp. It was irritating and painful, and caused the little one hours of tottering. We tried soaps and powders and salves, but he 4ot no better. Ile rcfescd his food, got quite thin and worn, and was reduced to a very serious •condition. I was advised to try gam-13uk, and did so. it was wonderful how it seemed to cool and ease the child's burning, painful skin. Zarin-13uk from the very commencement seemed to go right to the spot, and the pimples acid sores and the irritation grew less and less. Within e few weeks tr.y baby's skin was healed completely. He has now not a treed of rash* or eruption, er eczema, er burning sore. Not only so, bet cured of the tote menting skill trouble, be has improved in general health."

W. R. Kelly, of Elmvale, writes as follows :—Having seen the record of the amount of milk given by the beet cow on the Model Farm at Guelph 14,- 000 lbs, in seven months, I thought I would see how much our cow would give and accordingly weighed the milk for one week which amounted to 378 lbs, From that milk Mrs. Kelly sold nine pounds of butter, besides what we used in our own house. She also sold two quarts of milk and two pints of cream. Taking the days of seven months from the first of May, which would be 210 days this would mean 11,004 lbs. of milk on grass feed, while the Model Farm cow was fed on the best feed, —The G. T. 'R. officials figure that the company is ahead about $400,000 by not submitting to the men's de- mands that brought on the recent strike. Valuable Rings Stolen. Preparatory to washing her hands at the Park Hotel, Southampton, on Monday morning of last week, Mrs. John Rowland of Walkerton removed two valuable diamond rings from her fingers and laid them in the bath- room of the hotel. Leaving the room for a few minutes she returned only to find that someone had been there in her absence and borne off the rings. Raising an alarm a thorough search was made, without avail. The rings were worth $500. To Make Land More Productive. Write Brown Bros. Co., at Brown's Nurseries, 'Welland Co.
