A visitor to Berlin recently, says the News-Record,,.describes an inter- esting incident in .a Listowel council sitting. The chairman of the Fire .and Water Committee had not re- ported during the whole year, and .even.the.members:.of his committee were in ignorauce:as to how matters stood.. The .chairman had bis ap- i propriation and conducted affairs to emit, himself. It is not to be inferred that .his .honesty was..,gaestioned, but merely his. methods. A .member.arclsc .and asked why he didn't report. The„chairman said: "I .knew by your .actions you had some .kicking; . to do. But I tell you right here .it's none of your blamed business. .I.'.nl chairman and every- thing's alright." "But you haven't ..reported this year." Chairman,: • '!Don't ,.care a con- tinental, Pm running this com- rnittee." The couueii demurred, but the chairnisul was determined not to report until the end of the year. Then .another .member arose and drew the .attention of the council to the fact that the town's tire ladders were net in :their placcs.in the fire hall. r1 he ehairman, who is a painter by trade, said they .were all 11 right. But the eouueil insisted on .knowing where they •were,.and after a stormy scene, the ehairma a .admitted very reluctantly, that they were in Sea - forth, where :we had a gang of men at work, and who had had them there all summer. • Then there was fun.. The council wanted to know what would .have happened hada fire occurred and the ladders not been obtains?ole? Mr. Chairman net their aiagry criticisms Iike . stole and replied : "Why all this fuss ? There wasn't any fire!" TWO PICTURES. One Rich, Bright and Cheerful;, the Other Gloomy, Dark and Muddy.

Dtfring the Civil war cannon were turned out at a rapid rate, as they were ,cast.in single pieces. The .13 -inch naval breech -loading gun .is :forty feet long, four feet in greatirat diameter.and weighs sixty- seven.and.a half tons. To throw its projectile, which weighs 1100 pounds, it takes•550 pounds of powder and the ,prgjectile can ;pierce a plate of steel more than two feet thick. ° This type of cannon is made up of a central tube extending its whole length land twelve Jackets and loops .arranged about it in. two layers. At the government ship the guns are simply built up, the various parts being made by contract by a private firm in -Bethlehem, Pa.,. under govern- ment supervision. Let us suppose that,tbe preliminary eontraut,for fifty such • cannon were made and note some of the steps neeessar.y betore the parts could even be delicaered to the navy yard at Washington to be put together: Each ,piece must be .composed of steel of nut .more than tone half per cent. sof •carbr,u ; while tin a fluid con- dition it is,subjected in i.tbe mold to a pressure.of six tons to the square in0L1 1 After the,casting, called an ingot of becatase it ,is now a solid mass of steel, cools, 'thirty per sent• is dis- carded from its upper end and five per cent. fr'otn the lower .,and.

The ingot ie ,nest an- nealed to get rid of the ,internal tendons induced by forging~ To do this, it is heated .co a red gleam, cover- ed tQit11 iron filings and ashes and left to cool slowly_ A week or more must elapse before this praaess is completed. After being annealed the solid core is removed by a special bit and the ingot, now Balled a jacket, is rough bored and turned rnr nearly the di- mensions required..

It is placed in an upright farnaee 4" v' F' d: JUn�I heated t l a ..d Cora red heat and Y edt seta there until heated through and. througrf. It is then removed from the furnace and plunged into a tank: containing several thousand gallons' of oil. After slowly cooling it be- comes exceedingly tough and is ready to be shipped to Washington. When the various parte are re- ceived at the navy yard the central tube is turned to exact size and about this are shrank the jackets and rings, one at a time, until the cannon is built up. The final steps are the cutting of the rifling grooves, fitting of the breech plug and mounting. If fifty cannon of this kind were to be manufactured, it is possible that the first one could be delivered in from six to eight months and the rest, at intervals of from two to five weeks. ° PEOPLE .2.1.1 .IS '' IT, 897.

While there is generally a market for all the large, ripe pumpkins at more than their feeding value there Uro always green specimens that are not salable, which are nearly as good for feeding purposes. Remove the seeds and cook them. A11 the de- f►eiences in nutrition will be made good by some meal, which will bo better digested than if given withaait the cooked pumpkins. If the seeds are net removed, the nutriment of the pumpkin will be largely neutra- lized, as the seeds have a strong (diuretic effect. It is also important to remove the seeds from pumpkins fed raw to cows. Even the green pumpkins may be kept until Janu- ary if protected against freezing. - American Cultivator.
