Waste Paper For Fuel
Waste paper is being used as fuel by
some women who devise every way
possible to cut down their coal hills
They take cid newspapers, wrapping
paper. cardboard, or any other old
waste paper, and tear it up into small
pieces and place in a watertight re-
ceptacle. Boiling water is then pour-
ed over it, and it is left until the mass
becomes soft, usually taking about
twelve hours. This mass' is then made
into little balls about four inches in
diameter, which are set into the sun
to dry, or may he dried in an oven.
When thoroughly dry, these halls are
ready for use. They catch fire quick-
ly and burn slowly, :and have been
found a very satisfactory substitute
for coal.

Liable For Full Damages
Sir William liearst's sheep protec-
tion bill, put through the Legislature
recently, permits ',municipalities to
impose a tax of any amount upon dogs,
In the consideration of the bill the
oiuly question raised was in regard to
to the power given to fanners to shoot
dogs wandering about at night. It
was thought the clause was a little
wide, but Sir William thought that
only stray,. ownerless dogs would suf-
fer. The owner of a good dog • was
not likely to allow him to wander a-
round the country at night. A new
clause was added to the bill making
municipal councils liable for full dam-
ages for sheep killed or worried by
dogs, and providing that the claim
must be made within three months
tli notification of the attack within
.1`, hoursafter the sheep is killed. An-
other added clause provides that
