During the autunfn season, con-
siderable farm butchering is done,
and in the operation many good hides
are spoiled in the skinning. To do a
good job easily select a -clean hard
spot in the shelter of a tree or in a
building if the floor is good. A block
and tackle or other hoist arrange-
ment should be rigged in a con-
venient position.
Skin While Carcase is' Warm.
The animal should be clean; if not
it will be dithcult to keep.. the bide
and carcase in proper condition. The
sitinniug should start immediately
the anima! is dead, and the more
quickly it is done while the animal
is warm the more easily the hide
will come oil Make sure that the
knife is sharp. After stunning and
sticking the animal it should be sus-
penued to facilitate bleeding. When
in the suspended position the oper-
ator should begin skinning the head,
cheeks and face. When shinning over
the race leave the flesh on the head.
The presence of meat on the hide is
au objection. The head is removed
from the neck at the atlas Joint, ur
end of the spina/column. 'lite horns
should not be removed from the skull.
With the head out of the way the
animal should be completely lowered
and placed breast up, being held in
this position by a spiked stick be-
tween
ttween brisket and floor. The legs
should then be skinned out and the
feet removed.
Avoid Forming of Wrinkles.
After removing the feet the hide
should be ripped down the belly from
the sticking cut to the tail.. The sides
should then be skinned by working
torward to the brisket and then back
to the inside of the hind les, close
to the tail_ The free hand should be
used to lift away, pulling outward and
upward against the knife. Care
should be taken to prevent the form-
ation of wrinkles under the hide as
it is being removed. The hide should
be skinned off nearly to the back
bone, leaving It attached at the thighs
and shoulders. Change the prop over
to the other side of brisket and skin
the other side In the same manner.
Cut Carefully About the Legs,
- For the cut at the front legs start
in the center, cutting the skin well
forward at the brisket and in advance
of the front legs, cut back to the
union of the fore leg and body and
on down the inside of leg to meet
- the cut made when skinning the shin.
In skinning the hind legs start at
the center line about six inches from
the tail and split the skin in straight
line to the hock- Skin over the rump
and thighs. At this stage It is best
to insert a gambrel above the hock
joints and raise the carcass so that
the shoulder will still rest on the
floor. Split the skin on the under
side of the tail and skin out the tail
•
bone to the end,
Skin Away From Tail and Legs.
Skin the hide carefully away from
the base of the tail and strip from the
legs and back, using the fist or a
blunt instrument such as a knife
handle, skinning stone or the back
of a cleaver- Be careful and do not
cut the hide, since each cut reduces
the value. When skinned down to
the shoulders the carcass is hoisted
clear of the floor and the skinning
completed down over the neck. Split
the ears by cutting lengthwise and
fold the hide flesh side In. Tie for
shipment.—Ontario Department of

teetl 'ii y is to ap cal to A44etic
inatinets oil the 'Offender by pointingl
'out that he will "spoil bis wind." This
method had better be employed with
care after' the interesting disclosures
made by Captain Finch, of the Mount
Everest Expedition. rt would seem
that the wind -spoiling theory needs
some qualifications; if you happen to
be climbing a very big mountain in
a highly rarefied atmosphere, the
smoking of a cigarette' does not de-
tract from but positively improves
the efficiency of your overtaxed
breathing apparatus. At 25,500 feet
above sea-. level the mountaineers,
breathing with the greatest'difficulty,
found that inhaling cigarette smoke
brought them much relief; so that
when one reaches those magnificent
but embarrassing altitudes "Gaspers
for the gasping" apparently becomes
a Legitimate plank in the adventur-
er's platform. The discovery is in-
teresting from a good many points
of view. For one thing, it suggests
that even the most ineterate cig-
arette smoker in this country has,
after all, never known what it was
really to enjoy a cigarette; the best
solace that he has drawn from a
deep breath of his beloved weed has
evidently been nothing compared
with the physical satisfaction that
was granted to the Everest adventur
'era. He merely gratified an arti-
ficially acquired craving; they simul-
tart'eously satisfied a vital human
need, and very much in the same
way, it must be presumed, that the
sufferer from asthma gains relief
from the paroxyms of that complaint
by inhaling the smoke of his cigar-
ette of stramonium leaves. The ex-
act reason for the relief of the moun-
taineers seems obscure. At their alt-
itude the air must be lacking in some
other normally discovered constitu-
ents besides oxygen and Professor
Haldane said that it was possibly the
carbon, monoxide in' the cigarette
smoke which relieved the climbers;
at such a great height a little carbon
monoxide might have the effect of
"bucking up" the human apparatus.
Something may also have been owed
to the naturally soothing and steady,
ing effect of tobacco on those who
haye become addicted to it. How -
1 ever, there seems no immediate need
for that body which one believes is
known as the Anti -Narcotic and To-
bacco League to. wind itself. up. If
we are to wait until we get 25,500
feet above sea level before a cigar-
ette becomes ' a biological necessity,
most of us will have to content our-
selves with one of the older and more
debatable excuses for our criticised
indulgence.
Cheap Ice For the Farmer.,
Farmers who have not already done
so should prepare to lay by a store
of ice'for cooling milk and for house-
hold use next summer. The cost of
harvesting and .storing ice is low
when compared with the saving ef-
fected. Ordinarily, it is safe to har-
vest two tons of ice for each cow
in the herd. This will allow for melt-
ing and leave enough for family
needs. Where cream only is sold,
about one-third of that quantity of
ice will be needed.
Did you ever try co-operation in
ice harvesting? It works like a
charm. Get one or two of your
neighbors to go into such a scheme.
One pond or stream and one set of
tools will answer for all. The equip-
ment necessary for harvesting and
storing ice consists simply of saws,
tongs, and iron., bars for pushing the
blocks of ice around.
A rough board enclosure.. ten feet
square and eight feet high' will hold
sufficient ice to provide fifty pounds
per day for 130 days after allowing
for a reasonable amount of wastage.
An important fact to be remembered
is that the Smaller the quantity of ice
stored the larger is the proportion of
waste. The bottom of the enclosure
should be covered -with a foot of saw-
dust, and a foot of space left between
the boards and the ice, which should
also be filled with sawdust. The ice
should be "8imilarly covered. The
drier the sawdust the better. If,the
soil bgpeatb the enclosure is imper-
vious clay, a layer of gravel under the
sawdust Is advisable.
If sawdust is not obtainable, plan-
er mill shavings will serve- if neither
is to be had, two feet of marsh bay
or any wild bay will answer. The
roughest kind of a shed that will re-
sist the weather Is all that Is re-
quired.
If you are not making money on
the farm, scratch your head and do
some hard thinking,
Keep feeding the hens or they'll
stop laying. Keep feeding the pullets
or they'll -stop growing.

cord between.the two politicatia from
Tennessee, As the -next election ap-.
proached it became apparent - that
Carmack was building up a political
machine of his own which threatened
to reduce that of Cooper to the scrap
heap. The inte?esj i of the two men
were no longer identical. In 1906
came the open break. Cooper espous-
ed the cause of Carmack's opponent
and Carmae,k was beaten. Then in a
contest for the Governorship the
Cooper candidate defeated the Car -
meek candidate. The men were ene
Mies and Carmack had begun his at,
tacks upon Cooper. Up to this time ,
they had not. been divided upbn prin-
ciples but now the anti -Saloon League
began to take a hand in Tennessee
politics and, the issue was whether
the State should continue under local
option or become suddenly dry.
While Carmack was never a pro-
hibitionist he perceived here an or-
ganization,ready to his hand and he
associated himself with it. But he
was defeated. The anti -Saloon League
however, became more militant than
ever, and Carmack more vitrolic in
bis newspaper attacks upon Cooper.
One day he wrote a short editorial
consisting of one long sentence that
More deeply offended Cooper than
any that had preceded it. The next
day Cooper and 1i'rs son met Carmack
on the street. There was shooting.
Carmack dropped with a bullet
,through his heart. The younger
Cooper was wounded in the shoulder.
The older man had not fired a shot,
though he had drawn his revolver.
The Coopers were tried for murder,
were convicted and immediately par-
doned. The >Inti -Saloon forties were
enraged. They regarded Carmack
as a martyr to their cause. Thus he
was advertised after death all over
the United States. His death mhde

and perhaps more than any other
single incident made it more or less,
of a reality in the United States.

usually soon gobbled even to its na-
tural death. So the world has been
searched to find any natural way in
which extensive fish remains might
be collected and pickled so that their
oil may hale been preserved, and
such natural conditions have been
found in one of the bays off the Cas-
pian Sea. This bay is almost land-
locked. The hot climate causes rapid
evaporation and the water in the flay
has been reduced to a state of sat-
uration—a perfect pickling solution.
Fish straying from the' Caspian into
'this pickle are instantly killed, and

Certainly their remains, if covered up
with mud, would yield in time a most
odoriferous petroleum which in the
course of time might distill into ad-
joining sandstone as a very respect-
able "petroleum, and also give off an
abundance of gas as vile smelling as
what is being now produced from the
Tilbury field. The • salt beds, of
Lambton suggest an enclosed cean
bay that was cut off and evaporated
in past time, but the time of these
beds is generally regarded as before
the 'evolution of fish abundant. ,Else-
where, even the evidence of salt is
lacking from under the greater num-
ber of oil pools, so that this -possible
origin for the main supply of pe-
troleum oils may appear a little fishy.
SHOOTING FATALITY THAT
BROUGHT ON PROHIBITION
Col. Duncan Brown Cooper, who
died in Nashville, Tenn., recently, is
credited with being the man who had
more to do than any other individual
in giving the United States national
prohibition. Col. Cooper's contribu-
tion was unintentional and consisted
in shooting ex -Senator Edward W.
Carmack, of Tennessee. Nor did he
shoot Carmack because the former
Senator was a leader of the anti -sa-
loon forces, while Cooper played as
a rule with the liquor interests. He
shot him primarily because Carmack
called him "baldy." When Carmack
referred to Cooper as bald he was
well within the truth for bald Cooper
was. This fact did not make him
less sensitive, however, and having
heard that the taunt hurt, Carmack
repeated it a hundred times. He
referred to Cooper as bo angel, and
asked whether of light yr darkness.
Beneath this question lurked an in-
sult, for Cooper's father had once
owned numerous slaves, and Car-
mack intended a slur on his birth.
Cooper came of a distinguished
Southern family and foughtthrough
the Civil .War. He was famed as a
gentleman gambler, and after one
all-night session when hundreds of
thousands of dollars changed hands,
he found himself in possession of a
controlling interest in the Nashville
America,p. Hitherto he had paid
little attention to politics, but otidn-
ership of the paper forced it upon
him and he became an adept mani-
pulator, and eventually grew to be
a political force in the South com-
parable to Henry Watterson. Soon
after becoming owner of the Amer-
ican he grew dissatisfied with his
editor and at the same time was
struck by the work some unknown
was doing on a little weekly paper
up State. So he sent for the author
and made him editor. The young
man was Carmack, who had read 'law
but was struggling with poverty.
The young editor was a man of un-
usual gifts. He put new life in the
American. Presently he was being
quoted in many of the large papers
of the country. Cooper congratu-
lated himself urn a find.
Despite considerable disparity in
their ages, the proprietor and his
brilliant editor became close friends.
Cooper sympathized with Carmack's
political ambitions and the latter
soon won more than a local reputa-
tion as a speaker. Their close rela-
tionship continued even after Car-
mack left Cooper to become editor of
a more important paper in Memphis.
He was a candidate a couple of times
for the legislature, but without suc-
cess. Then in 1901 -the tide turned
and Carmaek became a United States
Senator. He went' to Washington,
where Cooper' maintained headquart-
ers, and it was not long before he was
one of the most conspicuous members
of the Senate. He was its nnost cans
