o1@ces m Wadl,}ington. Sneer wastes
fu ens, it is said, help to. create an
excessive demand which ultimately
enhances the price. As the result of
a recent investigation, the prediction
is made that unless car owntrs
turn
over a new leaf, close to a bl on gal-
lons
a-.lons
of ,gasoline will be waited dui'••
izig the present year.
The average car owner does not
conceive of the important part his
particular engine plays in conserving,
pr wasting gasoline,' continues the
associations report, "He does not
even appreciate the role the proper
functioning of his engine plays in
cutting his own fuel! costs. That is
why it is estimated that the wastage
of gasoline annually represents an
expense to motorists of $180,600,000•
Every car owner could save about 4,
cents per gallon, and the individual
loss of gasoline through carbon chok-
ed engines and too richly adjusted
carburetors should fie •left out of dis-
cussion until' car owners sense the,
seriousness of the situatyofi.' e
"To tell a motorist that his engine
is wasting gas because it is -choked
with carbon does not spur him on to
remedying the condition; but once be
hus•a glimpse of the sum total of the
• nation's carelessness with respect to
its motor car he raises the hood and
looks into the situatiog. Carbon is
not a vague something which ac-
cumulates in a motor -and has to be
cleaned out every spring. It is a very
real efficiency -killing deposit of dirt,
oil and unburned gasoline, which ac-
cumulates by degrees and which can
be minimized, even neutralized, in the
same way.
It is now estimated that 90 per e
1 cent. .of carbon 'is dirt drawn in
through the carburetor. Air cleaners
and strainers will therefore grehtly
improve the efficiency of the engine;
but where the car owner is not able
to attach such devices, feeding each
cylinder with a table spoonful - of
kerosene through the pet cocks when
the engine is left for the night will
eliminate much of the carbon as it is
deposited.
"The wastage of feel caused by the
carbon is by no means confined to
its habits of heating to a cherry red
and pre -igniting the cylinders' gases.
It does its damages mostly around
the valve heads( causing them to re-
main slightly open when they are
supposed to be closed. This reduces
comprestion by allowing the gas to
leak back into the carburetor or out'
the exhaust.. One -valve that does not
close tightly or which is stuck he -
cause the owner neglects to oil the
valve stem will practically cut out
er, entire cylinder which, 'in the case
. of a six -cylinder engin means a
waste of about 30 per cent, of its pow-
er and, its fuel.

ENGLISH SPEAKpIG WORLD
WILL MARK MAY 8th AS
"HOME, SWEET HOME”
DAY e
A Montreal business men en route
to Toronto early this Spring was
overheard saying to a travelling com-
panion:"Last night I went 'horne
completely fagged -out. I put on my
• slippers, lit the grate fire, put a 'cello
• record of 'Home, 'Sweet Home' on the
phonograph, and sat backin an easy
chair to rest my brain, body and
nerves. Do you know, before the
piece was finished, I could just feel a
soothing feeling coming over. That
old song will never die, will it'?"
Many such a compliment has been
paid to that song, the one hundredth
aeniversary of the first public per-
formance of which will fall on May
8th, and as such that 'date is being
made something of in many sections
of the English speaking world. This
number finds a place in every folio of
home songs, from the oldest volumes
in our grandfathers' homes to the
niost recent collections of s'ongs for
community singing. It has been sung
on the concert platform by prima don-
nas, from Patti to Galli-Curci. It has
been performed," by the world's lead-
ing violinists and 'cellists. Almost
every boy has chosen it for his first
attempt on the mouth organ;,
The words of "Home, Sweet Home"
were composed by. John, Howard
Payne, who was born in New York
City, at 33 Pearl Street. He wanted
to be an actor, but his father discourr
aged it. Young Payne became a
clerk in a counting house, tried his
hand at journalism,, • but afterwards,
through the assistance of ,a novelist,
he took a college course. His father
having got into financial difficulties,
Payne left college and went on the
stage, of which work he made a great
success for a time.
Later Payne went to London'mid
Paris and wandered to other parts of
the world. He made gobd money at
times with his writings, but was. any-,
thing but thrifty. ,One dull October
day in old London, when he was'feel-
ing depressed and the .pinch •of lack
of funds, the words of "Home, Sweet
Home" came to him. In 1823 Chas.
Kemble bought Payne's znanuscripts
and among them was a poem, "C1ari,
the Maid of Milan."' Kemble' per-
suaded him to alter this into a libret-
to for an opera, the music fpr which
was composed by Henry Rowley Bish,
op. ' This Payne did, introducing his
poem, "Home, Sweet Hemel' Arid it
was prodgced at Covent Garden op
May 8th, t1823. Latterly, he was
American Consul at Tunis,' -where he
died `'i 1882.
Sir. Henry Bishop, a Londoned by
birth, who furnished the musipfor
"Home, Sweet 'home," 'did' not '1•laim

' A Strange Kitchen,
Imagine, if you can, a rangeless•
kitchen where numberless .little iron
or clay braziers- holding one utensil
each, heated by charcoal, takes the
place oof a large kitchen stove... A
crane over a tirep,t holds the sing=
ing kettle, no dining table, no sink.
in which to wash the simple dishes',
chopstieks instead of silver and . no
table linen to worry over., Odd, we
allow, but you would probably not
swap a good American kitchen for it
even with a rare old Mandarin coat
thrown in. Bet these home condi-
tions show why, stove luncheons
cooked right on the table and .tray
service are generally used and why
the food is cut fine for chopsticks
and comes canned in ,this way.
Many raw foods *are used • and
tempura fritters the size of 80 -cent
pieces takes the place of our own
bread, dumplings or biscuit. Rice is
always present in some form. , The
Japanese eat little if any fat and
at home very little meat, thopgh
they are not, strictly speaking, vege-
tarians, since fish is e . very im-
portant article of their diet. Coffee
and cheese are, of course, taboo,. and
very little butter 'and milk are used.
'Though at a race these people very
soon adopt American customs • and
foods they -retain a fondness for their
own dainties bf the homeland.'

BUILDING UP BEE COLONIES
It is essential that every beekeeper_
should have all his , colonies in the
best of condition, i.e., strong in bees
of the right flying age at the mom
mencement of..fiihe main flow in order •
tient the largest, possible crop may be
harvested. -
The first step, then, in building up
should be taken toward the 'end of
the honey flow, about the last week
in July or first in August, when the
beekeeper should see "hat each' col-
ony is headed by a vigorous young
queen so that plenty of young bees
may be rearedlfor the winter. Should.
no nectar be coming in, it might be
necessary to .stimulate brood rearing'
by feeding;, especially is this noes -
sexy fon nuclei.
Later, he should see that all col-
onies contain an abundance of whole-
some stores, -and that• the bees have
adequate protection from the cold, in
order that they may winter with as
'little loss as possible.
Despite the best of preparations for
a winter, it will sometimes be fount
\
when the colonies are removed from
their winter quarters that the are
low in vitality and vary greatly in
strength. - `•
To conserve their vitality cellar
wintered colonies should when'brouglit
out be protected where possible, also
they should be shielded by some sort
of windbreak.
Unless lots of stores are present in
the spring .colonies will build :but
slowly. It will, therefore, be nee s-
sary early in the season to see that
all have sufficient stores of honey..
•In most localities' there -is ample pol-
len.. Combs of honey should be plac-
ed, after breaking the cappings, one
on each side of the brood nest• Should
spring flowers fail it might be neces-
sary to feed to prevent brood -rearing
being curtailed. In localities where
pollen is not abundant, combs con-
taining it should be saved and given
•
in the .spring. -
The problem of the beekeeper,
then, is to bring the medium colonies
up t6 the strength of the strong ones.
This may be done by uniting weak
colonies to them or by giving a comb
of sealed brood with adhering bees.
If desired, a weak colony may be
built up by placing it above a strong
colonpith an excluder between
them. No entrance is provided a-
bove:'•Thia is best done in the even-
ing. ,First, remove the cover and al--
low
l-low the cool air to.caute the bees of
the strong colony to recede. The
weak Colony is then gently placed
above without the use of smoke.
Three weeks later• the upper colony,
now •quite strong,; is removed to a
new stand.
Water is required early in the
spring for brood rearing' until new
honey is coming in, and unless a na-
tural supply is near the apiary it
should be furnished. -
