His chickens have food Tz‘twhen they want it, and never is there r £20 much left on the ground to get ouldy and cause ill-health" among che flock, and never an evening is ‘Ethere any grain on the ground to a ‘ Litempt-rats. I - . I The device is a galvanized iron sup- ;‘ply founthwhich is filled with grain . land which has at'iitsfiba‘se haâ€" revolving ‘lwheel mounted on extremely sensitive Ithough very strong and durable, bear- pugs. ; A light shaft extends .down from {this wheel to a cylinder made of wire "unesh. This grain also, but the mesh is so close dt cannot fall out.. The machine is rso mounted that the cylinder is just ‘the height of a chicken's head. The “chickens see the grain in\ the cylin- .der and pack at it. The slightest ' touch‘ on the cylinder causes the wheel “in the fount to revolve and this throws ~0ut grain against an inverted cone "which scatters it over the ground. 'As esoon as the wheel stops revolving, and â€"sthe weight of the grain stops it very quickly, the‘sup‘piy is shut, poi! until another chicken'pecks' at the‘cyiinder; Shoe-string Tips The loss of the metal tips to shoe Tlaces causes no end of annoyance “when it is necessary to lace the shoes thy passing them through eyelets and :as most children's shoes have eyelets pretty general. ‘This can be obviated by securing a ‘piece of fine wire two inches long and guessing it “though the lacing about ‘half an inch from the end. The wire :ehould then his sthsted around the "lacing as far as Ithe cloth or leather ,goes and than twisted together, the, {ends being buried in thextwist.

NOVEL CHEESE KNIFE Movable Blades Mounted on Red That Runs Through Middle An ingenious method .of cutting cheese has been designed by aNew I A rod hesithree broad, movable blades slide.ny mounted upon it. The cheeseâ€"the cutter is designed for use on round cheese, by the waye is placed on a dish and the rod thrust through the center. The three blades. KEEPS CHEESE FRESH. TOO. being light in weight, can rest on top of the cheese. When a slice or wedge . of cheese is desired it can be cut uickly V and accurately by pressing gown two of the blades with the requisite width between them. An: bther advantage of this device, and the probable reason 'for the third blade, is the fact that it keeps the remainder of the cheese fresh by clos- ing the cuts against, the air. The blades are about the depth of the usual round cheese and two of them can be kept pressed against the cuts Where inside-is exposed. , HOW ELEE‘HANTS' SLEEF In One Sense Are Lightest Sleepers- Scldom Lie Down Whether elephants ever ii" down a question which nature students r- in doubt about. One authority. Gorv’ Cumming, made known the fact i'. at one time he thought he had fox.‘ evidence in marks on the grou‘. that the bulls of one herd d'd stretr themselves out at full length for ~ few hours' rest at about midnight, bu- says Harper's Weekly, he contends that the young and the cows alway‘ remained on their feet. - Another authority; Selous, has ex- pressed doubt whether even the 01x. bulls 'lie down. He tells of one herd that was known to have kept moving and'feeding throughOut the twenty-. four hours. "Except when rolling in mud and water," he says, “it is likely that an African elephant never lies down duringlhis whole life." However this may be, the most com- petent authorities seem to agree that this animal sleeps less and more lightly than any other. J. L. Kipling, the father of the writer, has estimated the period of slumber taken standing up to average about four hours in the twenty-four, and his estimate has been employed by the son in an amusing passage for one of his stories, “Moti Gui," wherein the sleep of the ele- phant is represented as consisting of an hour's fldgeting on one side and a- similar period on the other, followed throughout the rest of the night "by long low, rumbling sollloquies." The Growth of Buonoo Ayres Of all the great cities. Buenos Ayres is said to be growing the most rapidly. The most artistically "built of the cities of the new world, it reminds the visitor of Madrid, or Paris. This magnificent capital of the Argentine Republic had in 1800 only 40,000 in- habitants; in 1862,‘ 36.000; in 136$, 187,000: lax-1881, 429,000; in 1890, 656,000; in‘1904. 951,000; the census of 1910 brought” up to 1,282,117 while the population since that time has grown astonishingly. The Mayor, in .1. recent public speech, said that in- four years thc'populatiOn of Buenos Ayres, at the present rate of growth, would surpass that of Paris.
