SEASONABLE HINT o ON COOLING MILK With the advent of warm some of the milk of the home dairy -is likely to become sour unless steps are taken to keep it properly cooled. In this connection, Harold Macy, dairy bacteriologist at University Farm, says: “In ordel: to insure the best quality. of milk for delivery, it should be <cooled to 50 degrees F. or below 88| yrodjum-sized potatoes should be [Stir e e e ae soon as possible after milking and Xept at that point until it is delivered.

Berlin, May 29.—A German naval engineer named Madler has invented a new type of boat which, he de- clares will revolutionize naval war- fare. He asserts that the Power controlling this craft need fear no other navy, however strong. The principal features of this ves- sel'are its speed, its torpedo capacity and its practica! invisivility. The motive power is crude oil and the boat has a cruising radius of 2,500 miles, with a cruising speed of twen- ty knots, while auxiliary engines will, enable her to develop one of forty-eight knots. She carries ten torpedoes, which are fired by the steersman, who drives the vessel as one drives a mo- tor car. At the moment the torpedo is delivered the steersman swings the i vessel round, touching a lever, which enables the boat to dart away like an arrow. A further advantage is the extremely shallow draught which will allow her to sail over minefields with perfect ease and safety.

The correspondent has seen certified copies of testimonials from Germany’s highest naval engineer experts endorsing the inventor’s claims and advocating the construc- tion of vessels to his specification. Owing to the armistice none was ever bujlt, and the inventor is now endeavoring to dispose of his rights to a foreign power. , Tt is understood that negotiations are'in progress with the Italian au- thorities, who have already deposit- ed a considerable sum at a neutral bank for the right of inspecting the patents. Madler is well known in naval circles and held an important position at Kiel during the war. His engine is apparently an improvement in the Diesel tvpe. The boat is a thoroughly good seagoing craft, ar- mored throughout. = = LEAGUER PASSES Elmira, N.

The seed is stirred thoroughly during the process until ‘every seea is moistened. After the seed is dry it is ready to plant. NOTE—Do not grow potatoes in soil which is known to be contamin- ated.
