IMPROVES THRESHING
MACHINE CYLINDER
t a- • c - t
Cliff Jordan, Mitehell, has .been
'working on the problem .a develep-
ing a new cylinder for a grain sep
water which if It proves successful
stall revolutionize the co,nstruction of
them machines, according to the Mit-
chell Advocate. Working on, the prin-
ciple of reducing the amount ,of power
necessary to operate te a:timelier, he
hopes, with the inetallation of the
new cylinder, to so reduce the amount
. of power required that these ma-
ehines may be dniven with hydiro pow
er or with small gasioline engines
Under present construction the grain
. eeparator used for threshinig requires
st, 20 horsepower threshing :engine and
the greatest amount of this power
-was required' to turn: the cylinder
:which fed the sheaves through the
cepa ra t or was coot inually becoming
"plugged" and operations would have
to lye stopped to clear it •out, With
Mr. Jordan's invention the amount of
vowelrequired is reduced at least
-1 per cent, be claims.
He has developed a new -style tooth
for the cylinder which takes the load
a different manner and, requires
much less time for installation and
repairs. Tbls new tooth is set into
the drum, which .is also constructed
along new lines, in such a manner
that the load is more evenly divided.
The whole clrum has been built fol-
lowing streamline construction of the
present day. and, designed with the-
fitlea of reducing lad first, last :and
foremost. without sacrificing strength
and the quantity of work accomplish-
ed. In fact, Mr, Jordan claims that
'his cylinde' will greatly speed up
the amount out threshing which can
be done by a' grain separator today.
He has been working on his idea
for some time past, and various old-
ttime threshing •men who have view-
ed the new cylinder claim that he
has something" which should go
far in developing a""sepa.rator .which
-.might be used and ,sold individually
to the small farmer,

A Lemon A Day

Scurvy is clue to thezNdiet being de-

thie affection feels tired, has pains

bleed. Later on the 'skin becomes
covered with Petechiae which are
small spots due to effusion of blood.
haemorrhage follows and the person

He is useless and an encumbrance,
The use of fresh vegetables and

Revenge'
A young lady schoolteacher was re-
cently stopped in Detroit for driving
through a red light and given a tick-
et calling for tber appearance in Traf-
fic Court the following ,Monday. She
went at once to the ju'dge,etold him
that she had to 'be at her classes
then, and asked for the immediate
disposal of her case.
"So," said the Pelee sternly, "you're
a schoolteaoher. That's fine. Madam,
your presence here fulfils a long-
standing ambition for me. For' years
have manned to have a schoolteaeh-
er in this court. Now," he thundered,
'you sit right down at that table ov-
er there and write 'I went through a
Stop sign' 500 times."

Frenchman picked up a paper fram

"But—there must be some mistake,"
the leader af the German officers
stammered in dismay. "These are
terms which no civilized nafion could
impose on another."
"I am very glad to bear you say
so," replied Foch gravely. "No, gen-
tlemen, these are not' our terms.
They are the terms imposed on Lille
by the German commander when
that city surrendered."

WEATHER CONDITIONED
In Hawaii, we almost never have a
"oloudy day." The trade winds blow
the cloudis from the mountains out to
sea. A cloud may suddenly open and
drop a quick little shower; 50 feet
away the pavement may be perfect-
ly dry. act regular are these show -
ens at certain places; that in the old
days before automobiles one would
often say ,to the coachman, "Stop
just beyond the first, or second, or
the third shower," as the case might
be.
•
The day in Para, Brazil, is measur-
ed not so much by hours as by rain.
No native can remember the day
when it has not rained. The brief
heavy showers come down with such
regularity that you make your en-
gagements "after the thiedafternoon
shower" or, say, "between tbe fifth
and sixth."

Weather in China is classified ac-
cording to the number of silk coats
you must wear. A hot day is a one -

coat day. A cold day is a seven -or
eighteigbtpr nine -coat day.

From birth to death the English
are daily inured, to taking their wea-
ther as they find it. One seldom, if
ever, hears. "It's a 'nice day." In-
stead they wisely cornmemt solely on

bright -morning," "A fine afternoon,"
"A pleasant evening."
Place Names of P.E.I.
Are High In History
In Prince Edward Island. Canada's
most thickly settled province, the
place-namee originate from three
mune:ea-the Micenac Indians, the
French and the British. Most of the
Indian names, however, have been
given a French foam( of spelling.
Tbie island itself was called "Epe-
e:wit" or "Abegweit" be the Micmacs
meaning "cradled on the waves,"
With the advent 01 the French octria-
nation. it was called' Ile St. Jean.
When, the aanalitsb took poeseesion of
the province they translated the name
to St. aolinfe Island. But this clash-
ed with Saint, John of New Bruns-
wick and St. Johns of Newfoundland
so it was renamed Prince Edward! Is-
land.
Indian names surviving on Prince
Edw'airci Island today include Bedeque
Bay, Cascumpeque Bay, Maipeque
Bay, Mimanegash Pond, Pisquid
Ttitgmish River and Traeacne Bay,
The French influence is revealed in
the Bedeque for Beate and
Maleeque for Maipek.
The Micmac names were highly de -
adaptive. Bedeque is a corruption of
the Indian 'ord meaning "a hot
place," C)ascumpeclue is a "bold sandy
stile:re," Malipeque 19 a "large 'bay,"
Mrinatinegaish freely translated de-
scribes a "portage place," Pisquid
mend "the forks of a, river," or "en-
• aise''
Itt
tering alt right angles," Tignishmeans
"a paddle" and Pracadie is derived
from a. word meaning "camping
groundL"
Names swatting from the French
fregiineta untaaasilettect, include Cour-
tin Island, alrapand Settlement,
Deroche Point, Float/tile Bay, For-
tune Cave, Gasperaux Settlement,
More/ Rriver, Naufnige Pond, Rustico
Settlement and Souris River. A few
French manes are in use today in
translated form, such as St. Peter's
Bay, once known as St. Pierre.
Alter tibe ratification of the treaty,
of peace with France in 1763, the
British gaverawarnit set about to col-
oOize the feeble island. Capt. Sam-
uel Holdout:Least army officer detailed
to survey the colon!", named about
150 places. Moist of the uameo he
decapitated were personal ones.
Such names as Wolfe Cape, lasnek-
ton Clove, Calssalte Bay and River,
anti Mummy River, and Harbor, which
eisrv•ivie today were named after dis-
tingulabed soldiers and sailors with
whom Captain Holland nerved at tbe
sieges of Leo -lashing and Quebec.
After Holliamsa's survey only small-
er natural features remelt:tett to be
named. Most of the names of these
later setiateutente, .such as llealast,
Cavendish and Dundee, indicate twee
homes of the Irish, Englisk and Scottish ancestors of the citizens living
tbere tiectay_
Perhaps the more beautiful names
were conferred on settlements by
tibe Scotch settlena A weagth nt
folk tales and romance lies itetrinta
each names as Dunstaffnage, Gair-
loci; Glenda*, Glenfannang, Glenfin-
Ena, Glengarey and Strathgartney.
