"Well, 1 can't say as to that," laughed Gocomeback, and before Betty knew what was happening sh: found herself standing in a strange country. "Ob, I know where we are," Bat- ty laugher, as she looked around her. "In Holland. I can tell by the windmills and" the way that Ke girl is dressed." ~ "You're right," laughed Gocome- back. "We're in Holland, and the little friend I spoke of is Gretchen. There she is this very second." * Gocomeback waved at the little girl, who came running to meet him, kicking the snow with her wooden shoes as she ran and he sald: _ "Gretchen, this is Betty from Am- | erica, and Betty, this is my [ittie friend of whom I was speaking." "Oh, Gretchen," laughed Betty, shaking the little Dutch girl's hand. "Gocomeback has been trying to teil me that you like winter time bettar than you do the summer months." "Then he has told you the truth." laughted Gretchen. "I do, and I' think most of the Holland children; «vill agree with me." ! "But isn't it. terribly dry and lonesome in winter?" asked Betty "What in the world. do you do to pass away the long, dreary hours?" "Oh, my!" cried Gretchen, her "Don't You Get Terribly Cold?" dark blue eyes fairly sparkling. "I never find the hours dreary.Thefact is, they're not nearly long enough to suit me. Why, here in Holland, we have ever so many canals and rivers, and when the cold weather comes they freeze over and every one goes out on sleds or skates. Some of the sleds we fasten to the dogs, and they pull them for us ,and then on some of the sleds we scoot over .he ice by using short sticks the same way that you would paddle a cano®, Then my brother made a big sail and put it on an jce-boat for me, and, dear me, but we did have great sport."

"We must have an artificial an- thracite; we must provide a substi- tute for that 'luxury fuel' without delay." So says George QO. Smith, director of the Geological Survey. But how | is an artificial anthracite to be made? Out of "sludge," for one thing. It] is the waste of the anthracite mines --coal in particles so fine as to have no market value. amounts to about 5,000,000 tons per annum. Mountains of it have accumu-- late wherever there are coal mines. Immense quantities of it have been washed down from the coal washers {nto low places, forming extensive beds fifteen or twenty feet deep. It is perfectly good coal. All that fs needed is to make it into bri- quettes suitable for burning in the household furnace or the family stove. Every year about 45,000,000 tons of steam-size anthracite -- tiny bits from three-eighths to less than one- eighth of an inch in size--are sold and used for steam coal. The price it brings is less than the cost of get- ting it out of the ground. But if made Into briquettes for domestic consumption it would be worth much money and would importantly help out the anthracite supply. Already four or five plants In the anthracite region are manufacturing briquettes from this material. The thing ought to be done on a great scale. Most important in the making ot briquettes is the use of a suitable "binder" to glue the tiny bits to- gether. Corn flour or other starch may be employed for the purpose; or the sulphite which is a by-product of the wood-pulp industry; or tars, such as coal tar or the asphaltic residue of petroleum refining. All the «Pennsylvania anthracite was originally bituminous coal. Heat converted it into its present form, driving nearly all the volatile ele- ments out of it. Hence the smoke- lessness that renders it so desirable. This being the case, why could not bituminous coal be transformed by laboratory methods into an artificial anthracite? It ought, indeed, to be practicable, and many experiments | have been made with that object in view. Briquettes have been made of bitu- minous coal, but no process has yet been developed that is satisfactory and cheap. The artificial lumps have a tendency to resolve themselves into the original coal dust when exposed to the high temperatures of the fur- nace or stove, owing tp melting of the tar or other stuff used for a binder. There were originally in the ground of this continent about 22, 000,000,000 tons of anthracite. That was the total existing quantity, and one-fourth of it has been dug up and burned. According to George O. Smith, there now remain approxi- mately 16,500,000,000 tons of this smokeless luxury fuel underground. The demand for it is larger every year, owing to increasing population and the waning supply of natural gas, which has hitherto been used in great quantities for domestic pur- poses in place of coal. The 16,600,000,000 tons of anthra- cite remaining underground would | make a cube 6,910 feet long, 6,910 feet wide and 6,910 feet high. In other words, the cube would be some- what more than one and a quarter miles on an edge. The situation in regard to bitu- minous coal is very different. At the start there were about 3,100,000,- 000,000 tons of it underground-- enough to make a cube ten miles on an edge. Such a eube would repre- sent 1,000 cubical blocks each one mile long, one mile wide and one mile high. We have taken out of the ground up to date only the equivalent of five of these blocks, so that we have 995 of them left. The figures here given relate to coal available for mining. As for anthracite, the price of it is bound to go up steadily, and fifty years from now it will be a luxury obtain- able only by the rich. A century and a half hence even they will not be able to get it, for it will be all gone. We must, then, as Mr. Smith re- marks, have an artificial anthracite, and for a future that is not far dis- tant we must learn how to make it from bituminous coal. Oshawa Growing. When complete figures are avall- able they will show that Oshawa has grown rapidly since last year, R. H. James, tax collector, announced the other day. He predicts that the population this year is 1,500 greater than last. As a result of this growth there is a serious housing shortage. Hav- ing just completed his assessment duties, the tax collector stated that over 500 new houses would have to be erected to cope with the situa- tion. It is practically impossible to obtain offices in the business district. .

MEASURING HAY. | The following simple and practical i hints regarding the measuring of hay are worth noting and filing: | Tons of Hay In the Mow. To find the number of tons of hay in a mow multiply the length by the | breadth and then by depth of hay. { This will give the number of cubic feet. Divide by 400, the resulting number will be the answer in tous. | Hay varies In density due to the character of the grasses or clover from which it is made, the length of time it has been stored, the size and depth of the mow. Timothy and other grasses pack closer than clovers, shal- | low mows do not pack to the same | density as do the deep mows, so judg- ment must be used in selecting a factor above or below 400 when estimating. The hay in the bottom of a mow 20 feet deep will be packed into half the space observed in a mow only 10 feet deep. If the mow is only 10 feet deep the factor used should be 800, if 20 feet deep 350 will be nearer correct. A fair average for all conditions is 400. Tons of Hay In a Stack. To find the number of tons lof hay in a stack, measure the overthrow distance of the stack and multiply by the length and breadth in feet, then divide by three. The resulting num- ber will give the number of cubic feet. If the hay has been standing two months and the stack not over 12 feet high, divide by 600, 'the re- sulting number is the answer in tons. ~--L. Stevenson. Hand-feeding Lambe. Lambs that have lost their mothers or have milkless mothers can be guc- cessfully reared by using goat or cows' milk in a rubber-nippled nurs- ing bottle. The newly-born lamb re- quires a small quantity of milk at very frequent intervals. Two or threé teaspoonsful every hour for the first day with a gradual increase as the lamb grows older. Many make the mistake of giving a newly-born lamb all the milk it will take at two or The manure from stables | is generally of considerably higher | that it is not as clean as straw.

WITH RED PEPPER When you are suffering with rheu- matism so you can hardly get around just try Red Pepper Rub and you will three feeds a day. This treatment is very frequently fatal. Keeping the feeding bottle clean and sweet and | using the milk from a fresh cow and | feeding every hour or two until the lamb is four weeks old will generally give good results. Milk may be con- tinued as a feed as long as the lamb will take it. Should bottle-fed lambs develop scours, this condition can be checked usually by heating the milk to boiling point and then cooling quickly. A teaspoonful of castor ofl given with the milk is also an effec- tive remedy.--L. Sievenson.
