Hot Water Vor the Farm Sink— Have One of Generous • Size -- Location and Height Important,— EloW to Comber Scours lin Calves --Lubricants for Farm Machinery. !contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) The simplest arrangement for a kitchen sink service that supplies cold water only is a small pitcher puixip mounted at the edge a a oink. This is the first step in improvement oyer the outdoor pump and cistern. For the hot water service at the sink, it is necessary to have a heating ar- rangement which is best supplied by a water front in the range, a water reservoir and a supply of cold water under pressure. The water under pressure may be furnished through the use of a pressure tank system, an attic tank or a gravity supply. Place the Sink at the Proper Eleight. The height of the kitchen sink is of great importance. The location of the most flexible joint in one son's backbone is not a standard for all The correct height of the sink Is a matter that must be determined; by the person who is required to work over that particular sink. Every woman knows that working over se low sink is anything but pleaseet,• ' Watch the man who instalis the sink, and see that the height is sat- isfactory. The bottom of the sink" should be just six inches below the paint of your elbow. Such little attention to detail while the work' is being done ni.y save you „many a backache. If you do not issue any, instructions to those installing the, sink, it will, hi all probability, be installed at a height of thirty ineheS, which is correct for a woman only, four feet, eight inches tall. You niayi be taller than that Have One of Generous ProportIons. Considerable choice can be had in' size, design and material in kitchen sinks — the 'shape, weight of metal' and quality of enamel largely de- termine the price. If the size of the kitchen will permit it, a sink of gen-. erous proportions is to be recom- mended. The drain board is import- ant and generally desirable, but sometimes a movable flat wire basket or rack suspended over the sink is! more desirable. Taps, faucets, or bibcocks of various types and quality. are offered by the trade. The ordi- nary brass or nickel anish compres- sion faucet is generally satisfactory. These may be had in either screw joint or solder joint. The Location Is Very Important. The kitchen sink should be locat- ed at a convenient. point beneath a wintlOw or on a wail opposite a large window, so that the ligeting may be good. Do not build the sink in with shelving, cupboards or closets unless you are prepared to cover all wood- work' that is likely to be splashed witgb greasy water with copper sheet- ing. Open plumbing for the sink is to be preferred on the score of acces- sibility and 'cleanliness. The cock- roach loves wet woodwork and grease. So try to avoid conditions that attract such insects. Locate the sink, if pos- sible, on a wall on which there are no cupbo,aeds or cabinets, and do not consider anything but a high back typo of sink. It may -cost a little more but it is worth it when we con- sider the added service that such will give.—L. Stevenson, Dept. Extension, 0. A. Gollege, Guelph. How to Combat Scours in Calves. Like all diseases of cattle, preven- tion is the best method of combatting. scours. Ordinarily scours, as distin- guished from white scours or calf cholera, can usually be traced to overfeeding, irregular feeding, dirty pails, cold milk, sour milk, or old milk, and any one or all of these are due to carelessness All the part of the feeder. Constant vigilance is- the price of healthy calves. As soon as trouble is detected, the feed of the calf should be reduced at least hall. Administer a dose of castor oil in warm milk by means of a small drenching bottle. This will tend to remove all irritating substances from the bowels. Feed -should then be graoually restored to the normal account, .and formalde- hyde solution should be added to the milk at the rate of one teaspoontil per pound of milk. This solution should be made up of one part of formalin (40 per cent. solution of formaldehyde) to thirty-one parts of water. •If prompt improvement does not follow this treatment, repeat the dose of oil, and accompany it with another reduction in the feed. Calves are alwaysgreedy, and for this reason overfeeding'. should be avoided. This is true particularly whenalfalfa is being fed, as it is ex- ceedingly palatable, and, the animal Is apt t� gorge itself. Lubrichnts for perm Machinery. , Heavy oils and 'greases are used on all bearings where the pressure is great and the raoienaent slow, as on axles and slow turning shafts. Gen- erally speaking, • the greater the 'speed a the turning part the lighter the lubricant used. No oil should be used that has not sufficient body to remain on the surface of shalt ahd bearing for a reasonable length of time. All farm macbines, excepting engines and cream separators, can be kept well lubricated with the heavier oils -and greases. Cream separators running at high speed require a light high grade oil, while gasoline en- ginels, require an oil of medium body and capable of standing a high tem- perature. Grease or hard- oil ciips should be attached to all bearings where practicable.—L. • Stevenson, 0.A.C.‘ Guelph.

The PrhAce of Wales' Agneli at Abit, coittilbuted the hitheit priced bull at a recent tall sale in Calgary, Princeton Cru- sader, which fetched $285. Canadian wheat exports for the, twelre hioliths ending September 30th, 1923, amounted to 225,747,861 bushels, alued at 259,445,816, while for the twelve months ending SePtember, 1922, they were 160,637,- 898 bushels, valued at $19077,125, wording to a report of the Do- minion Bureau of Statistics. Exports of bacon from Canada to Great Britain increased almost 3,- 000,000 Pounds during the first nine xrebnehe of the mirrent calendar year. Por this period, during 1922, there were 70,988,000 pounds of Canadian bacon shipped to the British market, while this year the corresponding figure rose to 73,- 934,000 pounds. The value of the asbestos exports of Canada for the 12 months ended August, 1923, according to the Do- minion Bureau of 'Statistics, exceed- ed the value of those of the previ- ous year 'by nearly $3,000,000. These exports for the last year amounted to 202,646 tons, valued at $8,375,- 249, compared with 122,785 tons, valued at $5,604,551 in 1922. The first consignment of 1,000 pounds of British Columbia Douglas fir seeds has been shipped to the British Forestry Commission, Lon- don, by the Dominion Forestry Branch, from its plant at New West- minster, British Columbia. The seeds were extracted from the cones recently gathered in the Fraser Val- ley districts. The year 1923 will see a new re- cord in Alberta coal production. It is expected the total production for the year will reach 7,000,000 tons, in comparison with less than 6,000,- 000 last year. The production up to November 1st is 1,500,000 tons greater than the production for the same Period last year. The record production previously was in 1920, when 6,400,000 tons were produced. The pay -roll this yser is expected to exceed $18,000,000. Great interest is being manifested in the International Dog Derby to he run at Quebec during the Wintei Carnival CM February 21st, 22nd and 23rd, 1924. The race is for teams of huskies driven by Indians, trap- pers, traders, mail carriers and oth- ers. At present ten entries have been received and others are ex- pected from the north shore of the St. Lawrence and from the Abitibi mining district. As navigation will soon close, it will be necessary for entries from the latter district to mush 400 miles to reach Quebec. About five American teams will probably take part, their object be- ing to regain the gold cup for the United States. What might have resulted in a very serious train wreck was avoided in the nick of time on the Canadian Pacific Railway Tarry Sound sub- division, by section foreman Con- zani, who while patrolling the track near Beignall recently discovered two large iron nuts 'on top of 'the rails, securely fastened with hay wire. The foreman had just time to unfasten the wire and remove the nuts to clear the track for a train was due in five minutes. Two boys in the vicinity admitted, after questioning, that they wired the nuts to the rails, They were sen- tenced to the local shelter for one month and their fathers were re- quired to give bond and report to the authorities for two years. Evidence given by farmers be- fore the U. S. Tariff Commission showed that under' American rail- way rates a bushel of wheat could be hauled only 35 miles for one cent, while under Canadian rates the same amount a money would move the same amount of grain 66 rniles. American farmers claim that this is a saving. in favor of the Canadian producer of 44 per cent, or about 8 cents a bushel. The rea- son given for the difference is that in the United States grain ratee are based on cost of moving it to -day, In Canada they are based on 1897 costs, when the Crow's Nest Pass agreement was made between the Government and the Canadian Pacific. - X.4110111 • The death occurred on Dec, 5th, of Elizabeth Guest, wife of John R.yan.
