Large Number Each Day of Any 8lz* Required. For the core a five-inch length of ?tore pipe la used. This la cut 20 Inchon Ion?, or two Inches longer than the tile la to be made. A circle la cut from a board to fit Into the bot tom of thla pipe, where It la fasten ed, aays the Orange Judd Farmer. In the center of same a bolt la placed ?which acts.a*, a pin, going through the molding'board or pallet and thus In suring setting the core in correct po sition. The top la finished with a block to fit into same, as shown, with a ring and bolt to draw ouV core from the completed tile. The outside form la made of heavy sheet iron and is eight Inches In diam eter and 18 inches high, which makes the wtills of tile \% inches thick. This requires a piece of sheet iron 18 by SZtiMi Inches in size, which you should have the tinner bend Into a circle or cylinder form, with the edges over lapping each other one inch. Exactly one Inch from each edge of the sheet Core and Form for Tile. nail two strips of wood, as shown in illustration, and to these attach hooks and eyelets, so when the form is to gether with the sheet iron lapped one Inch the hooks are in position to go into eyelets. This is placed over the core and held at tbe proper distance from same by little blocks nailed to pallet on tbe outside of form or by small nails driven into pallet. The mortar Is placed in machine and thoroughly tamped down. The best mix for this work is one part, cement to three parts of coarse sand used with as lit tle water as possible, just, enough to wet the concrete. Ono machine will make a number of tile each day, as it can be removed from the tile as soon as molded by drawing the core first and then un hooking and removing outside form. The average cost of five-inch tile 18 inches long made as above Is 8 Vi cents each; six-inch tile ten cents each, with sand at 75 cents per cubic yard, cement $2 per barrel and labor at $2 a day of ten hours. This same machine may be constructed in larger or smaller slue, as requirements de mand. Close Pasturing. Close, late pasturing of autumn sown wheat fields reduces the yield. Tbe Oklahoma experiment station rec ommends that stock be taken out of the wheat Held by March 1 or March 15, nt the latest. If reasonable returns are to be expected. Tbe quality of grain deteriorates perceptibly with late pasturage. Pasturing wheat when the ground is very wet will have a tendency to lower the yield of grain, and at the same time injure the tex ture of the soil, ruder favorable sea son conditions wheat frequently makes a very heavy growth and In these cases it is advantageous to pasture. Handling Sheep. Sheep arc timid, nervous creatures, and all oxcltemont and roughness should be avoided in handling them, The young hen is usually the best layer. The hog responds readily to good treatment. ?rbod sows ought 10 have a feed of roots occasionally. The first shoeing of a colt Is the most Important of all. Filth In the poultry yards and 1 houses invites disease. Fare air without draft is the solu tion of health in tbe hen house. : Tho Inns that must light lice and j mites are usually poor producers. Never cut a limb Irom a fruit treo 1 unless you know just why you do It. An orchard neglected for one year virtually puts It back three years. Tho heifers should freshen early, at two to two and one-half years of age. Tho breeding ewes and store sheep remain as long as possible In the pas tures. Tho breeder of fancy sheep finds It almost impossible to cell a ram thin In flesh. As every ono knows, tho best time to train an animal Is while ho Is young. Training the cow to be a good milker should begin with tbe rearing of tho calf. Do not neglect to give each horse a chance to drink the last thing at night, oven if tho weather Is cool. Jerk tho nervous and skittish horso every time he shies, thereby showing yourself to bo a bigger fool than the horse. For the first two or three weeks tho calf should be fed at least three times i a day on warm milk taken direct I from the cow. PADDED SUIT FOR AVIATORS ?afety Jacket and Headpiece Among Lateet Device? Invented for Pro tection of Airman. Among the many devices for the protection of aviators in caae of fail exhibited at the recent International congress of Aerial leagues at Bou logne was a padded jacket and head piece, says Popular Mechanics. The headpiece protects the head, neck and lower part of the face, only leav ing the eyes and nose exposed. In the teats, the Inventor of the Jacket hurled himself head first, against a rough stone In one of the Padded Jackets for Aviators. city's walls and suffered no harm from the Impact. The outfit, however, la very cumbersome, ns the padding of the jacket nnd headpiece Is six inches thick. Another interesting device brought forward was a parachute which will open fully after a fall of 80 feet. The old-style parachutes required a fall of several hundred feet before open ing. The possibilities of the new para chute were personally demonstrated by the Inventor, who dropped from an elevation 30 feet high with It. MASSEUR THAT IS AUTOMATIC Large Leather Knoba Turned by Re volving Wheel Knead 8tomach In Way to Stimulate Blood. There Is no longer any necessity for paying an expensive Swedish rough house artist several dollars every time you want a massage. ' A machine has been invented which, it is claimed, will do the work Just as well and cheaper In the long run. Thin machine Is fastened to an up right, which in turn Is fastened to a platform, so walls need not be marred. A wheel with largo leather covered knobs on the ends of its Bpokes project a foot or so, and this Ik revolved by turning two han dles. The patient, or subject, stands in front of the wheel with his ab domen just touching the wheel which, by the way. can be adjusted to a height to suit the user. He then turns tho handles, and the wheel revolves, tho balls passing over his stomach and kneading It An Automatic Masseur. in a way to stimulate tho circulation of the blood and Impart a healthy action to the liver and other organs. Another use for ibis device is lor tho reduction of adipose tissue nnd tho consequent reducing of a too generous walst-liho. Sex in Handwriting. That it la possible to determine box from handwriting In perhaps eighty out of ouo hundred Is a conclusion reached by Miss Juno B. Downey from nn examination of tho Writing of 200 persons. Tho specimens wero submitted to two "professional gra phologists," ns well as to fifteen per sons ignorant of their art. Tho so called sex signs nso found to bo large ly influenced by tho amount of wri ting done, by age nnd to a certain ex tont by practise, and by professional requirements, ns In the conventional writing of teachers and tho rapid hand of bookkeepers.
