For the twelve cylinders do tet: saint: sort of; work as the single cylinder. except' that each does it at a different time.; In order to cause the engine to gen- erate power a mixture of gasoline and air in the form of a vapor is fed into; the cylinder above the piston. To pro -1 vide this mixture a carburetor 10 at-; tached to the engine and a valve ts' furnished which opens to permit the mixture to enter at the proper tim This valve is opened by a ram which, is driven by a suitable gearing et- tached to the crankshaft. Next this mixture is compressed in the cylinder and then ignited or set on lire by means of a :park which' occurs at the spark ping. When the. mixture is ignited it burns rapidly and produces heat. This in turn causes' pressure on the piston, forcing it to slide in the cylinder, and. through' means of the eonnectinti rod, to turn' the crank.

B I ' hi E IZIa© ' 1j Nova Scotia Butter Boorn, The outstanding feature of the agri- cultural industry of the province last' year was the continual growth of the, creameries industry. The year 1924 showed an increase over the prevlous year of 563,156 pounds of butter, and; an increase in business done of 3153,- 328. Pieces in a' Piano, Mere than 1.000 dlrisrent'pieces of material, varying from felt to wootl, Ivory and many kinds of metal, enter into the making of a high-grade piano, els, in 1920 to:263,189,300 blshels and in 1923 to 474,199,000 bushels. Canada's influence on the..veeriU's wheat markets is illustrated by the enormous growth of eeports, From the small amount of 0 871,1139 bushels in 1901 they took what was at that time a big jump to 18.688,092 bushels in 1902, and 24,560,703 bushels in 1903. In 1910 46,583,028 bushels of wheat was poured into the world mar- ket, in 1915 exports were 140,806,618 bushels' and in 1924, 21.4,630,825 bushels. bushels. Canada has a wonderful opportun- ity, not only in the productiveness of her wheat fields and in the quality of the wheat that her soil and climate produces, but in the fact that the wheat industry of Russia, which was a chief competitor, has not recovered its pre-war status. Canadian wheat is mach in demand both in Great Bri- tainand on the Continent and can be produced at a comparatively low cost, in competition with American' grown wheat. 0 The farm cost of producing wheat in Western Canada in 1923, as esti- mated by the United States' Tariff Commission, was 82 cents a bushel, including a land charge, figured as interest on stated land values. These figures were opposed to a cost of 31.47 ner bushel, the estimated cost of pro- ducing similar wheat in Minnesota, Montana and Dakotas, made by the sono authority. Canadian wheat is'nrknowiedged to be of an unusually high order and, through the Canadian system of grad- ing and elevator regulations, merits the standing it has among foreign buyers. Poppy.
