With tho best oil that is mndu you can produce a gas in your house that will make atmosphere as disagree able as it is unhealthy. In all lamps whoro proper and complete combustion is maintained, thcro Is no porccptiblo odor from any quality of oil Eold in tho market. But tho troublo is when pooplo want to Icavo a houso or room for a timo and keep n light burning thoy turn down tho wick. This Is dono for economy In most instnnccs, but thcro is not only no economy in it, as I shall show you, but thcro is also a danger to Health niul life, rtow, wbon you light a lamp thcro is at first a timo when tho flamo will not burn IiIkIi without smoking, but after tho lamp and chim ney aro properly heated una a full sup ply of oil is established through the capillaries of the wick a strong llamocan bo maintained. Now, if, with this sup ply established, wo turn down tho wick, owing to its decrease of burning surface, tho supply of oil continues in tho sumo ratio, what is not consumed in tho flamo being voiatized into gas, which is car ried out with tho ordinary products of combustion into tho air of theroom viti ating it and' making it very unhealthy to breathe. Now, here, in my opinion, is the basis of lamp explosions, and if tho proper proportion of atmosphorio air gots into a chimnoy, or is blown into an explosion is suro to result. In my opin ion, most of tho explosions of lamps, bo colled, occur by explosions In tho chim neys. A lamp should novcr bo turned down. It can easily bo extinguished by blowing across tho top of tho chim noy, and a very littlo practico will show that this is tho casiost and tho best way. After blowing out tho wick should bo turned down insidn tho tubo to prevent the oil flowing over. A close nttontion to the methods I havo indicated will, I am suro, prevent most, if not nil, ncci donti from explosion from kerosono oil, and save many lives, as woll as many thoutnnds of dollars' worth of property every year. Chicago Nows. The success of many farmers is as much duo to their carefulness in saving odds and ends, and making tho most of what is often considerod of littlo value, as from regular crops. Theso by-pro ducts, having less competition, are often too most profitable, it pays to bo on tho lookout for such chances, having of course, due regard to soil, location and and genoral adaptability of tho farmer to attending to littlo ni tutors. This is, af ter all, tho secret of success in nearly cery kind of business as well as farm ing. Doing things by wholesale seems very fine, but in most cases it is count eracted by inumorablo losses jn tho smaller details.
