C EDEY3flO1EY=TAR Jam, From "Jamaica." Jam seems to take Its name from Jamaica, and Is comparatively a mod era luxury. Galt, In his "Annals of the Parish," states that the fashion of jam making was introduced into Scotland- about 1760. when berry bushes were planted by "some of our young men that had been sailors com ing from Jamaica," and the condiment was valuea in the first place chiefly as "an excellent medicine for a sore throat." A writer In Hone's "Every day Book," in 1826, deplored the fact that jam could not be "purchased at the shops as other articles of con Dsmption are." Footlish Question. A man charged at the Liverpool (Ug.) police court with fighting stated that the prosecutor hit him flat en the jaw. "Did you hit him rst?" asked the stipendiary.- "No, sir," was the reply.

Th tander Grove'sTaea BtING HEAVY, SHORT ROAD ROLLER Useful Improvement May Be Con structed by Using Worn-Out Mow Ing Machine and Concrete. Perhaps you have a grader of some sort and road drags, but you Leed a heavy short. roller. They cost too much ' buy, so make one t's way. Procur' an old worn-out mowing ma chine, any make, writes W. A. Dillon in Farmers' Mail and Breeze. Take off or break off all the parts that stick out past the wheels. Smooth off a bit of bard ground; now do a small sole just large enough for the hub. Set the machine up on one end, put a jacket of galvanized sheet iron around the wheels, secure it at short intervals with small stove. bolts and make it fit neat and straight. Now fil the jacket with the best fine con crete. Tamp it well and allow it to. stand until the concrete is well set. Remove the jacket; keep the roller shaded and spray it for eight or ten dayL Havo the blacksmith put an iron frame on this roller. Heavy tire iron will do, using the hubs for spindles. When a strong tongue is added you wil have as good a roller as anybody; one that will last a life time and will cost but, little. Save the jacket to make more rollers with. When. your road is graded run the roller down the center, instead of on the sides, as now. Take two disk harrows the same number of disks and If possible the same kind. Turn the disk on the harrows so they will throw the dirt toward each other when placed side by side. Now set them close together side by side in the mid die of the road to be worked. Take a light log chain and fasten the har rows together. Put a team on each harrow and drive down the road' to be worked. Turn around; let out the chain a couple of feet; go back. Re peat the operation a number of times. You would be surprised how much dirt the disk harrow will cut up. and how much itwill move toward the center. Finish with drag or grader. Then roll the center and yotr will have a good road at small cost. We have organized a country club here and given each member a piece of road to drag, near his home. We elected a drag boss so when it is just light to drag the boss calls all the members and In about two hours we have al the roads in the district -dragged . We 'have had very bad weather ever since organizing, but the plan appears to work well. ROAD SCRAPER EASILY MADE Two-inch Planking, Securely Bolted Together, Will Furnish Most Use ful Farm. Implement. ' -There are many jobs upon the high ways and farms that require a few hours' us'e of a scraper, yet are not im yortant enough to require the purl chase of one. The scraper shown in Ilustration may be constructed of two Inch thick planking, securely bolted Cheap Road Scraper. together, and -also re-enforced with ange irons, to make the joints more secure against the strain. The blade or cutting surface is made of an old saw blade, bolted to the box as shown n illustratIon. The horses are at. tached by a chain fastened to two iron ooks, one upon each side of the scraper. With two handles it is com plte and ready to save many times its cost in small filling jobs. EVERY FARMER SHOULD HELP Every Day's Work Makes Roads Bet ter If Done IntellIgently-Mer chants Aid In Work. No man who farms should begrudge the time he spends in grading, drag gng and ditching the highways. lHe must use them twelve months in the year. Every day's work makes them a little better If the work is done in telligently. In many localities the merchants have aided in the work of road betterment, and it seems ridicu os that their efforts should be dis trsted by the farmers. Good roads associations in every county will eventually increase the value of alli farming land. Selection of Cows. Extreme care is necessary in so lecting cows, for no amount of skill in. feeding and handling will stimu late a profit from a truly poor cow. A good dairy cow is one with a large capacity for using food above the maintenance requirement and one that uses this food for milk production.

In at least one workshop they have been found: to serve a most use ful purpose--in a somewhat negative sense, perhaps.

Flowers are re garded as a good test of the humidity of the air. If the air is too dry, as is often -the case-in steam heated Inte riors, plants will wither and die.
