Electric light is, of course, the most convenient form oi lighting, as the lights can be switched on and off by an alarm clock. But if you have not electric light do not despair. A plant with about 2,000 birds 3 short way from Toronto uses gasoline lanterns, ‘which being the safest lantern made, giving a 300 candle power light, has also a great advantage, for when gaso- line is turned off the light does not go out for a few minutes. thereby giving the birds 3‘ chance to get back to roosts. With a lantern it is almost necessary to use lights in either of the two evening methods suggested, Using light is not a new idea. but a long used method. coming bark and bat-l: [0 stay this time. for lunch turned up plained what had happ< "Sure." she said, "t1 misthress waited for ye they hoped )‘e wouldn‘t went out" _._..._.,\__ !

This does not necessarily mean a greater egg production throughout the year, but it does mean getting the most eggs when prices are highest. Others. including Professor Graham’s farm. believe in supplying an “even- ing lunch" by turning on the lights for an hour. from 8 to 9 p.m., then feeding the extra feed of grain. on a couple or hours before sunrise. In this case, scatter the grain ration in the litter after dark the previous evening, and when the hens get off the most in the morning they will im- mediately get busy scratching for their feed. Then teed your hot mash at noon. and your grain late in the af- ternoon again. Others prefer con- tinuing daylight, by artificial means, until 8.30 or 9 p.m., feeding grain about 7 a.m., hot mash at noon, grain again about 3 pm. and 7 pm. The use of artificial light is simply to induce the hens to eat a. greater quantity of feed. This, of course, with proper exercise, results in increased egg production. Therefore it matters little when the lights are turned on. Some people prefer morning, and turn “Music,” Slr Wal‘ord says, “is any two or more musical sounds put to- gether for love, that make sense." And again, “Music is a straight and beautl- tul way of uttering what we feel.” "A musician," 811‘ Walford tells us, “ls any one in the whole world who loves music and can put two or more musl- cal sounds together and make muslcal sense of them." Artificial Light for Extra Eggs A somewhat lengthy review of these records was published recently in the London Times, and in It was embodied some quotations from Sir Waltord's lectures, which are well worth remem- bering. ' What Music Is. _ The English composer and teacher, SIr Welford Davies, has been giving some very successful lectures on music to children in the schools. Re- cently the somewhat novel experiment of transferring these lectures, together with musical examples. to the phono- graph, has been tried out with re» markable success. the two chief causes of illness are one and the same.

Apart from acnixivmt or illness due to infection, almost all ill-health arises from one or two renews. The mistake that people make is in not realizing that both of these have the same cause at the‘xqiot. ngmiely poor blood. Either bloodlcs‘fmasé or some other trouble of the nerves will be found to be the reason for almost every ail- ment. If you are pale, suffering from headaches. or breathlessness, with pal- pitation of the heart, poor appetite and weak digestion. the cause is al- most always poor blood. It you have nervous headaches, neuralgia, sciatica and other nerve pains, the cause is ex- hausted nerves.

It depends not upon the sense of touch, as do the Braillie books, but upon the sense of hearing, a faculty that is usually keen- iy developed in all blind persons. Only a few lessons are needed for the blind user or the optophone to learn the sys- tem. The chemical selenium is the impor- tant element in the optophone. A selenium bridge is exposed to light pulsations that vary according to the forms of the typewritten or printed letters that are passed through the machine.

It is a slow and la- borious procws at best, and the sup~ ply of Braillie books is necessarily limited by the expense of the output and because Braillie letters wear down into unintelligibility.
