Kept Two Mice Busy Whole Year Operating Thread Mill, A thrifty Scotchman, David Hutton, conceived the Idea of using mouse power commercially, relatei the I'opu tar Science Monthly. He experiment' ed and found that a mouse will run on an average tin and one-half mills a day. One mouse In Mr. lluttnn' collec tion actually ran 1R mites In one day The power of a mouse I not much when compared In horie power! yet, It li enough to ipln cotton thread. The coit of a mouie upkeep li not very high. One mouie was kipt In fine working condition for 89 day on om-half penny's worth of oatmeal. During those 83 days that mouse ran IM2 miles. Mr Hutton built a thread mill for bi mice which waa so constructed that the mouie wai able to twist and veet from 100 to 220 thriadi a day. Tha moon ran tin and a halt mllea vary othir day. Two mica wen kept constantly ea gsjed In the spinning of thread for tpore tnaa a year.

In England, according to tho Science ct la Vie, Illuminating ga Is now being used extensively a tho motivo power for motorcars, omnibuses nnd motor cycle. It Is much cheaper than gas oline, and Its use conserves tho lim ited supply of fuel for the motors at tho front.

It Is made of India rubber tissue like that used In the or dinary balloon of ascension. Hie tubing from gas bag to carbur etor Is fitted with a cock which has a triple function. It permits tho bag to bo charged or emptied or ran he turned to the neutral, which pormlts the gas to flow along to tho enrhuretor. A second cock controls the flow to the carburetor.

If farmers are paid more for live stock, consumers will necessarily pay more for meat. Swift & Company pays for cattle approximately 90 per cent of the price received for beef and by-products. The remaining 10 per cent pays for dressing, freight to market, operation of distributing houses, and in most cases, delivery to the retailer. Net SroOts also have to come out of this 0 per cent. This margin cannot be squeezed arbitrarily without danger of crippling the only effective means of performing the complex service of converting cattle into meat and distributing this meat to the fighting forces and to consumers. Swift & Company's net profit on beef during 1917 was only V4 of at cent per pound. On all products, it was a little less than four cents on each dollar of sales. Complete elimi nation of these profits would not affect appreciably retail prices of meat, or farm prices of live stock. Swift & Company will be glad to co-operate in devising methods that will improve conditions in Uie meat and livo stock industry. 1918 Year Book of Interesting and Instructive facts sent on request.
