PROFITS ON PLAY
AUTHOR OF THE LITTLE MINISTER REALIZES LARGE FOR TUNE FROM PRODUCTION.
The Merry Widow* Also Nets Hundreds of Thousands to Writer.
The late George Edwardi was not only the most successful of modern theatrical managers, but he was also the most spectaculare. He thought nothing of investing £10,000 to £20,000 in the presentation of a big musical comedy.
When he sent the "Duchess of Dantiz" to America he lost £10,000 and another £20,000 on "Veronique." On the other hand he scored stupendous success, notably with "The Merry Widow." At Daly's alone £241,000 was paid for seats, and over 500,000 copies of the music of the "Merry Widow Waltz" were sold on this country.
As an illustration of the pranks fortune plays sometimes in connection with the production of musical comedies, it might be mentioned that Mr. Edwardi sold "Jorothy," one of the first plays he ever produced at the Gallet, for £10,000, because it was such a failure there. Mr. H. J. Leslie, who bought it, took it to the Prince of Wales' theater, and made £100,000 out of it.
One would probably be safe in saying that the four men who have made the most money in writing for the English stage are Sir W. S. Gilbert, Sir A. W. Pimero, Sir J. M. Barrie and Mr. Henry Arthur Jones. Gallivan's operas provided Gilbert with an income of £12,000 a year, "The Second Mr. Tanqueray" alone brought Pimero something like £60,000.
In addition, "Sweet Lavender" poured £40,000 into his pockets, and although the late Mr. Edward Terry paid this sum in fees to the author he cleared £60,000 out of the play, and probably half as much again from provincial tours.
"The Little Minister" earned Sir J. M. Barrie £400 a week for a number of years, and long before the curtain fell on the last performance at the Haymarket the net profits had reached £100,000. Then there were such plays as "Quality Street," "Peter Pan" and "The Admirable Crichle," all stage mines...Tit-Bills.
URGE BETTER CONCRETE.
U. S. Experts Suggest Proper Methods of Mixing
Contractors, engineers and users of cement will be interested in a publication recently issued by the United States, bureau of standards on the comprehensive strength of Portland cement, mortars and concretes. Concrete differs from most structural materials in that it is not manufactured at a mill or plant according to chemical formula under the observation of skilled specialists, subject, to rigid inspection and test and such control as to produce a uniformity homogeneous product; nor is the process of manufacture completed in a few hours or days, as in the case of steel products. Furthermore, concrete is made from materials obtained from sources differing widely in characteristics which affect its quality. The proportions of the ingredients; the amount of water used in mixing; the thoroughness of mixing; the manner of placing; the atmospheric temperature and humidity; exposure to sun, rain and wind; immersion in fresh water sea water or other natural solutions—all affect the quality of the concrete.
This paper contains the results of some 20,000 tests. It shows the general effect of variation in the methods of preparing the concrete and suggests the proper methods to follow in order to obtain the best quality. The paper states that certain generally arecepted methods of testing aggregates and proportioning mixtures are incorrect and suggests methods of selecting concrete aggregates, proportioning the mixture, mixing, placing and curing—Commerce Report.
BEANS WERE CURRENCY
Cacao passed as currency among the natives of Central and South America at the time of the European conquest and that despite a plentiful supply of gold, Joseph Acosta, in 1510, tells us the Indians used "none of their gold or silver for traffic in or buy withall, and unto this day the custom continues among them that instead of money they use cacao."
The Antecs of ancient Mexico also used "cacao" as small chance, as many as 8,000 beans being counted legal tender. The value of the beans may be judged from the fact that "a tolerably good slave" could be purchased for 160 of them—London Chronicle.

Hall of Columbus, in charge of the same work in Ohio (for the Government) visited The Gazette sanctum, Saturday and Monday, to fore leave for the Nation's country. Mr. Hall will return to the city on Saturday, attending a meeting at the Community House. Saturday evening, of local leaders and the county organization which they have perfected here, and spotted at a large mass meeting at Cor. Mr. E. church, Sunday afternoon, Dr. Haynes and Mr. Hall are leading in a very important work with which they have the united support of our people here and elsewhere in the country. They are progressive, congenial and able.
Tuesday evening all were returned their money who purchased a tainy ind. lot or lots from Judge May (white) at Sidhil Baptist church, recently, except E. W. Mack and W. C. Fisher. Mr. Mack took that ind. lot and Fisher took that ind. lot who had claimed to have purchased two lots, paying $40 on them if he was going to get his money back at the meeting. Tuesday evening, Shiloh's pastor did not make any reply when he (Fishback) was boosted by the money he received. Shiloh assembles one evening in February, he denounced the "Erg Hurbor" lots as practically worthless and urged those present to purchase Gary. Ind. lots, from Mayo, etc., etc. Mr. Mack says Denon Fisher told him that his wife was purchasing his pastor's talk, referred to above she dropped them and purchased a Mayo-Gary. Ind. lot. There is considerable dissatisfaction among Shiloh's members who want to know how much money is in the church building func and a "storm is brewing." This is not right to know at any and all times and should be insisted upon until secured. Mack and Fisher secured their "lot" money, later in the week.
1914
Stars Agen'-Old Brown University Star Still "the Best Eyer."
Baltimore, MD. With a field of more than 400 gibbets at the annual intangibles at the Second Regiment Athletic Association, recently, Fitz Pollard, who has, on previous occasions played have with world records, added another star to his crown by establishing a new indoor record for the 400-yard low hurdle. Pollard "topped the timbers" in the 1914 heats, thereby clipping off one first-place finisher and one record. Pollard was one of the stellar lights of Brown University football team in 1917, and acquitted himself in an exceptionally creditable manner. He also enjoys the distinction of having beaten. Yale in a game of football, holding his own all along the forty-fourth even at the highest recommendation from the daily press and from all of the sport writers. They admit that he no peer in his line of sport. Pollard was named on the All-Americans by Walter Camp, the co-elected football critic. On the football field his reeve was on the court, and his successes. On account of his prowess Pollard has been honored more than any "clean" athlete of the race. This is the first time that an Afro-American has competed for such a high honor south of the "Mason and Dixon line."

BUNDY GIVEN LIFE SENTENCE
Deserted by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People—His Attorneys Ask for a New Trial
Watson, H. H., Dr. Larry N. Rundle, former E. St. Louis, H. St. dentist and resident of Cleveland, O., and son of Rev. Charles Bandy of that city, who was arrested for Cleveland, was found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment for a Friday afternoon, after a trial, that lasted most of the week, on a charge of compulsing to murder in connection with the killing of two detectives who are said to have been actively engaged in the promotion of the infamous riot in E. St. Louis, this state, on the night of July 1, 1917. The riot, which was called the riot, is said to have led to the subsequent riot outbreaks the following year, participated in by E. St. Louis police, actively and passively, in which more than 200 innocent and helpless Afro-Americans, men, women and children, were wantonly and brutally
Dr. E. A. Bailey Gives His Impressions—Unfairness.
My Dear Mr. Smith: As one of those present at the funeral of Dr. Leverett, I was just a week at Waterloo, IL. I wish to say that it was the precise excuse for a court of justice. I ever saw. The state witnesses showed clearly it was a "frame-up". It is hard to believe that a man could so blissfully be wronged by being in his rulers. He allowed the state witnesses to tell everything that would tend to convict the defendant but he permitted the latter's witnesses no such similar freedom of expression as would show that Dr. Leverett was wronged by E. S. Louis riot were prompted by a desire to defend themselves and their homes. Several times Dr.
"JIM CROWISM" THE RACE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES
According to the colegrams, Mr Wilson is "studying race questions" in Europe with a view to protecting the rights of "minority races." It is human nature to look into the distance for what is at your very feet. It is human nature to be concerned about the mote in the other fellow's eye. Now we have in our own country one of the finest fields for the study of "Race Problems" to be found anywhere on earth. In nearly all of what we term the southern states long to a race whose rights are absolutely disregarded. They have no representation in the local and state governments. As a rule they are not even allowed to vote for the white men whose membership in congress is based on the counting of the heads. They are virtually half the population of many of these states, but they are allowed no representation among the officers or judges or jurors of the state. They are more than 45 percent of the population, but they do not receive 10 per cent. of the funds provided to them. They are simply "handled" by the majority without their own consent or co-operation. More than that, they are often bratly mistreated and done to death by the score in a single year, without redress and without any real effort on the part of the state to protect them. And, mind you, the majority of authorities here but no authority whatever in Lithuania or Italy.
He has only "influence" abroad; he has "authority" in the United States. Of course it will not hurt the problem in the United States to solve a similar issue in the Haitians; and Mr. Negro could be helped abroad if backed up by consistency at home. But he is even more hammered by the rights of independent nations abroad. He could at least do at home what he is doing abroad—speak and use his influence. We are to forgetful of the fact that he did not want to be the president of home. But we content that the president of the United States has more than "influence" at home—he has "authority". And especially he had the greatest authority in the days of war to not down and to punish law-breakers. He listened, lynched and murder are not the cost of the matter; they are only symptoms of the deeper trouble. The real trouble is the inequality of the citizenship of the Negro with that of the white man. We do not mean constitutional inequality, but the unequal regard by the legislators and the instrators. We mean also the crooked laws of society, written and unwritten, by which the Negro is marked for the mob.
The heart of the difficulty compresses disfranchisement, or in-
leach murdered. Ten members of the race, previously have been "found guilty" and are serving terms in the Illinois penitentiary for trying to protect themselves and others from the E. St. Louis mob of white brutes, the E. St. Louis court of justice, new trial and court case to the U. S. Supreme Court, if possible, in an effort to get justice for their client, Dr. E. A. Hajley, a leading physician of Cleveland and Major W. T. Anderson (U. S. Army, retired) of the same city, important witnesses for Dr. Rundy, returned to Cleveland, Thursday and Friday respectively. The now famous, Rundy case was delivered by the court controller N. A. A. C. P, last fall on the recommendation of Dr. "Alphabetic" Droebois because he (and its other officials) were not permitted to handle ALL of the money collected for the defense of Dr. Rundy.
Bundy was referred to as a race leader in that section. From what I could glean it seems that race leadership among our people there is very much feared and there is an effort to cut them down. No wonder he was so afraid. He was also sued a court. If the N. A. A. C. P. does not respond at a time like this, in what way does it hope to convince us of the honesty of its purpose? After listening to what was said at Waterloo, one cannot help but be convinced that this Bundy "verdict" is a great blow to the program. This, to my mind, is a great call to every loyal member of the race to see to it that he does his bit at a time such as this. From my observation, I doubt very much that Dr. Bundy will be able to secure a just and impartial trial in the state of Illinois as race feeling seems to be keen and high. Yours sincerely. -- DR. E. A. BALEY.
direct, exclusion from office, segregation and Jim-Crowism "Jim-Crowism" is "Jim Crowism" more than mob violence. It kills the soul as well as the body. It works, not for one mad hour, but for twenty-four hours in every day. Its year's toll of victims is not three-score, but millions. It is not sudden death—it is worse; it is perpetual torture. Jim-Crowism "Jim-Crowism" is more than mob violence is only one of its manifestations.
To cry out against the violence without attacking the real monster is like, academically disapproving of the heat while we allow the fire to burn on our inequality of citizenship, Mr. Wilson. To attempt to pull out one of its teeth or to clip one of its claws, but kill the monster itself. How nice, it would be if, while trying to encourage "minority races" abroad, Mr. Wilson could, speak from this subject, "How We Have Settled the Race Problem, in the United States."—Xenia (O.1) Daily Republican.
St. James A. M. E. church has just closed a very successful revival, Miss Martha Keen, evangelist, preached and sang, every night, for three weeks. At all services, the church was filled. Twenty-nine persons were consented and 40 joined the church in worship. Last Sunday, the pastor spoke in the morning on the subject, "The Drift of the Age," and at night on "Dancing an Aid to Moral Decline." The Sunday School and Allen League were well attended. Mrs. Sarah Green mother of Mrs. J. Ballard, the pastor of the respected members, died suddenly March 25, and was buried at Berlin Heights, the pastor and a member of friends accompanying the body there. Mr. John Venia, an attendant at the church, was struck by an auto on his way to the revival meeting and died in Philadelphia. Mrs. Georgia Jones accompanied the body to Virginia, his former home, Mr. and Mrs. David Borges, of E. 1001 St., will return this week from an visit with their daughter in New York. Mrs. Caroline Washington and Mrs. Sada Aida, of E. 1001 St., will return the presidents' conference at Akron, last week. Mrs. Odessa Butler of Arthur Ave., entertained the Senior W. M. M. society, Thursday evening. Mrs. Robert Burns of Morris Ave., entertained the Trustee Helpers. Tuesday, the presidents held a soothful circle at the parsonage. Among the soldier boys of St. James that have returned from over-seas are W. Wilken, Ray Green, Frank Porter, Mr. Crosby and Elliott Williams. The church has begun a drive for $2,000, the last Sunday in June.

MARINES-AND HYDROGRAPHERS FIND NOTED SEE CAPTAIN'S CHARTS VALUABLE.
III Fated Sailor Makes Surveys Over Entire Globe.
Today hydrography is looked upon as the most important science, and without the hydrographer's efforts it would not be possible, except under very great danger to navigation, of the very large vessels to penetrate the waters of the world, and to carry on navigation as it is conducted at the present time.
Today the physical features of all navigable streams are carefully placed upon charts, the task is simple and devoid of risk. Governments of all nations prepare the most elaborate charts and maps, showing the exact location and condition of all bodies of water, giving the contour of the sea bottom, the position of shalows, deeps, reefs and the direction and volume of currents.
The first step in the modern science of hydrography was accomplished in the fifteenth century by Henry. "The Navigator," who was the first to construct a sea chart worthy of the name, but very little in this line was accomplished until Capt. James Cook of the English navy commenced his long career of ocean surveying in 1759.
Capt. Cook's first work was the mapping of the St. Lawrence river and lay from Quebec to the ocean, which he accomplished while stationed with the fleet cooperating with Gen Welford in the waters upon Quebec. Four years later, he was sent to survey the coast of Newfoundland, and the following year he performed—as similar duty for the coast of Labrador, and thereafter he continued similar hydrography observations wherever he was ordered until his death in 1749.
Cook's chart in the region of Newfoundland and Labrador were so well done, and were of such valuable service that even to the present day they are recognized as possessing great accuracy, and give fair grounds for the belief that he might, under other circumstances, have proved himself as culprit as a surveyor as he actually did as an explorer.
Cook spent practically his whole life at sea. He navigated every part of the globe, discovering many new islands, and correcting, many false ideas regarding the outlines of continents, and beat of all, he was able to leave the result of his work on maps, charts and in written descriptions so that the work of those who followed him was practically easy.
It was Capt. Cook who established our knowledge of the South Pacific on a substantial basis. In fact, the maps of that part of the world still remain essentially as he left them, though, of course, much has been done in perfecting the details.
Cook was at the head of the first expedition to make a serious attempt to discover a passage around the north of America. It was during this attempt that he lost his life. Having reached the Sandwich Islands, his crew got into altercations with the natives. After some depredations, the gallant captain himself landed at Hawali and resolved to bring the king on board his vessel as a hostage.
The king readily consented to go, but his family and the islanders generally prevented him. They showed light, and the marines escaped to the boat and, as Cook was attempting to do likewise he was stunned by a blow as his back was turned, and as he sank on his knees he was stabbed, his crew made way and the body of their captain was left in the hands of the savages.
Cook's body was mutilated by the savages, but the most of it was given up a day or two afterwards and fully buried. In November, 1874, an obelisk to his memory was erected in the immediate neighborhood of the spot where he fell, but the truest and best memory that survives is his map of the Pacific.
After Cook's work along the Labra港, the French, who had been careful observers of it, in 1875 sent out two ships under La Perouse and a corps of scientists to visit the northwest coast of America, and to explore other parts. After spending two years and a half Perouse went to Botany bay, after which he was never heard from, except that information that was forthcoming seven or eight years afterward; which made it probable that the ships were wrecked on the reef on the coast of Mallicollo.
La Perouse had, however, affiduates of charts and journals up to the time of his arrival at Botany bay. The work done by these early English and French navigators was imitated by those of other nations.

SATURDAY, APRIL 5, 1919.
A copy of "The Extension," published by The State A. & M. College of Orangeburg, S. C., "as a part of the college's extension work bulletin," has been received. It is exceptionally interesting. Prof. Robert Shaw Wilkinson, a graduate of Oberlin College, is president of the College.
We see where the Hon. Royal C. Johnson, Republican member of Congress from South Dakota, has been given the Distinguished Service Cross for assisting wounded men out of fire when he had himself been wounded by a shell. Will someone name an immediate member of the family of any prominent Democratic official from President Wilson on down who was wounded in the war or even under fire? They all seem to be qualified to wear the Undistinguished Lack-of-Service medal.
The President, when he unwillingly agreed to meet the Irish delegation in New York, declined to give it audience unless Justice Daniel F. Coholan withdrew it. The Justice Coholan made the sacrifice. One member, when asked why the president ostracised Coholan, said: "I suppose it is an old sore." The president's sores all seem to be characterized by longevity. The next morning Coholan woke up the idol of Irishmen on two continents and on the seven seas.
We see no reason to feel discouraged as a result of the verdict of the circuit court at Waterloo, Ill., in the Dr. Leroy N. Bundy case. It is just what might have been expected, under the circumstances, from the lower courts. When the case reaches the highest courts, where it will be free from direct or indirect influence, then and only then will justice be secured another intended victim of the influence that encouraged that infamous E. St. Louis, Ill., riot of July 1, 1917. Our people of the country should be generous in their contributions to the Bundy Defense fund.
TAFT VS. WILSON
President Wilson says, here is the covenant of the proposed league of nations. It will not be changed or amended. Take it or leave it. Former President Taft holds, however, that it is the duty of President Wilson to see it to that the covenant is amended and materially amended. Under date of March 11, he says:
"It is to be hoped that the President will press for amendments which can be drawn without great difficulty to remove the conscientious objections of a number of the senators on the subject of the Monroe Doctrine, the duration of the treaty and possibly some other points to which it is to be hoped the other nations will readily agree."
It will not do for President Wilson to set up his self-will against the welfare of the world. It is his duty to try to get a covenant acceptable to his country. If he has the influence in Europe that it is given out that he has he can bring about a modified covenant should he desire to do so. It will then be the province of the Senate to pass on its final form.
Already the league of nations pact is proving the basis of trouble instead of peace. Japan has insisted that the league will never function or else lead to war, unless she is placed on an equal footing with the other nations in the league. The supposed basis of the league is the equality of nations. Men are to live in harmony with one another, regardless of race, creed or geographical position. Therefore, Japan insists further that if the United States does not waive racial discrimination now it will not do so in the future. Naturally Japan could not be expected to take the position in good humor that the "white" man is better than the yellow, any more than the "whites" could be expected to agree to the op-
posite view-point. And since the very rib from which the pact has sprung is the equality of nations there can be no race discrimination without trouble. The Japanese delegates have been well schooled as to just what is expected from them in Paris. Unless they are succesful in their attempt to include an amendment which will insure the equality of nations without distinction as to race or nationality it will mean the refusal of Japan to join the league, which will mean in other words, war. Therefore, we see at the very outset, before the plan is arising from the interpretation of its articles. The United States can ill afford to have the slightest hint of trouble with the Japanese Empire. It is well that we pursue the well tested policies of the past in dealing with her on all subjects. So far, relations between the United States and Japan have been more than friendly. A calamity it would be indeed, to have the league of nations the cause for trouble between the two countries. Hands off! Let us keep within our boundaries where are problems enough to be solved. Japan fought with the allies during the great war. How many Japanese troops were there on the western front? What was the reason for this? We do not question but that there was some good reason and yet there comes word from authoritative sources that "all is not gold that glitters." Shortly after the signing of the armistice Representative Alvan T. Fuller, of Massachusetts, took an extensive trip to Europe. On the trip across he talked with M. Delanney, French ambassador to Japan. Mr. Fuller asked the ambassador if the Japanese were sincerely pro-ally to which he replied, "No, sir," and inquired, "Who in the world thought they were sincerely pro-ally?" Mr. Fuller states further that Japan was going to support Germany until she learned after her commission had been to this country, how extensively we were going into the fight, and was then afraid to do so. Delanney likened the Emperor and the military caste of Japan to that of Germany and that their methods and ideas and ideals were identical with those of Germany. If there is even a hint of truth in such information as this (and the source cannot be doubted) would it not be better to avoid entangling alliances with nations which seemingly hang on the fence to see which way the wind is going and then go that way, regardless of right or wrong? At least, there is food for thought—thought which it would do well for American peace conferees to indulge in during their leisure moments.
PROTEST AGAINST WRONG.
To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on Protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

DARE TO DO YOUR DUTY
"Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it."—Abraham Lincoln.
REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING
While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise? The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake."
Arthur Goode, 813th Pioneer Infantry, brother of Mrs. Mattie Pierson, is still in France and in the best of health. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Smith, E. 90th St., entertained in honor of Mrs. Madeline Carter-Hawkins, prima donna pianist. Also Mrs. Robert Gregory, E. 93d St. and Mr. Mrs. Pierson, E. 43d St., who gave a dinner in her honor. She sang beautifully at Antioch church and left for a recital in Columbus. She will appear soon under the auspices of the Pleasant Company club. Dr. and Mrs. Hawkins, Dallas, Texas, will locate in Chicago.

THE MAN WHO DARES.
"I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner.

OH, KIDDIES HOBBY HORSE
AUTOMOBILE IS INVENTED.
Big Motor Truck With Gorgeous Prancing Ponies, Music and Seats in Rear for Adults.
Dr. Frank Loder of Lafayette, Ind., has been granted a patent on an invention which he calls the hobby horse automobile. For three years Dr. Loder has been working on the machine, which he claims will supplant the merry-go-round. The idea for the new invention was suggested to Dr. Loder by his daughter, Bonnie Loder, a few years ago, after she had taken a ride on a merry-go-round.
Shucked her father why he did not invent an automobile with hobby horses on it and since that time the inventor has been working on the device. He succeeded in perfecting the amusement machine a few months ago and experienced no trouble in securing a patent. The hobby horses will be placed on an automobile truck and the truck will accommodate twenty-door persons. The driver of the machine will also operate a device that will cause the horses to gallop. In the rear of the automobile there will be seats for the mothers of the children who are on the galloping horses.
The horses are operated by a system of gears. The power is taken from the motor and drives the car. The horses will remain still or will operate fast or slow as desired. The car and horses operate independently of each other if desired. The hobby-horse automobile has all the attractive features of the merry-go-round. It has music, gorgeous jewelled-studded horses, brass trimming and colored lights for night riding. The price for riding can be made small. It is made safe as there is a brass railing and heavy screen around the top platform to prevent children from falling off.
Older people like to have an excuse to ride with the children and the hobby-horse automobile should prove very popular at parks, fairs, outdoor amusement places and on the street.
It is expected the hobby-horse auto will sell from $1,500 to $10,000, according to size and furnishings.
ORIGIN OF GRAIN AS MEASURE.
Established by Statute in England in Year 1266
The grain, as a measure of weight, has its name from being originally the weight of a grain of wheat. A statute passed in England in 1266 ordained thirty-two grains of wheat taken from the middle of the ear and well dried, should make a pennyweight, twenty of which should make an ounce, twelve ounces were to make a pound. The pound therefore, consisted then of 7,680 grains. But several centuries later the pennyweight was divided in to twenty-four grains, which made the troy pound of 5,760 grains. The pennyweight was the exact weight of a silver penny. The standard grain was prescribed by Act of Parliament in the reign of George IV.

KEEPING LAND RICH SECRETS
EXPERIMENT STATION EXPERTS
EXPLAIN WHAT TREATMENT
SOIL NEEDS
Clay Field Plowed Soon After Rain is
Injured for Years.
Experts are digging information out of the ground and furnishing it to the citizens of the country who depend upon the land for a livelihood. Just as the farmer is "learning to plow deep" and is applying this rule even to clay, he must be shown that he must use care or he will spill his land says the Illustrated World magazine. The experiment station of the University of Wisconsin, working with its own farms in various parts of the state, has been telling what treatment is good and what is bad in regard to different soils. The state presents so many different kinds of soil that almost every type may be examined. Clay must be plowed deeply but gradually. The organic matter and bacteria necessary to plant growth are only on the surface of this kind of soil, and if they are buried deep in plowing, the land will be greatly injured.
As to clay several truths are expounded by the men who have tried out everything that science has at its command. In the first place, such soil should be cleared with the aid of dynamite. Surface drainage and even file drainage is important because too much moisture is worse than not enough. Clover and peas should be grown occasionally and sometimes turned under to provide humus for the soil, and as with other soils, crop rotation is important, with a four or five year program. Plow a field of clay too soon after a rain and it is injured for years to come. The great lumps soon bake to the consistency of bricks and three or four years of cultivation are necessary before the soil of the field will return to normal.
With marsh soils, drainage of course, is all important, but the chemical composition of the land is at most as much so. Such ground usually has a great supply of nitrogen but lacks the components, phosphorus and potassium, which should be supplied by commercial fertilizers.
Barnyard manure has the required elements, but as it also contains nitrogen, economy can be practiced by saving it for upland pastures if they, too, form some part of the farm. Just the opposite from the clay, marsh land needs heavy rolling for best production and when it is properly handled, the black soil will produce corn, potatoes, hay, buckwheat, etc., in great quantities.
The acidity of such ground need not bother the farmer usually if he has properly fertilized it, though in extreme instances it is advisable to neutralize the acid nature by a thin layer of linestone spread upon the soil before blowing.
Sandy soil presents problems of how to make it hold moisture and of how to prevent blowing. Long narrow fields in grass and cultivated crops alternately, will save stands of farm produce which would otherwise be ruined. Vegetable matter should be added to them to aid in water holding and to provide for additional fertility.
As sand has only one third to one half the fertility of clay loams, it must be watched carefully and crops rotated to produce results comparable with those from other soils. Ease of putting sandy soil under cultivation is its saving grace with the addition of manure as needed such fields become almost as valuable as other kinds.
Of course in addition to general maxims, the experiment stations give specific advice and the farmer who is served by them can have his soil analyzed and his crops planned for him. Perhaps this is the best way of attacking high food prices.
KEYS MAY BECOME
RELIC OF PAST SOON
Locks Operated by Buttons Are Invented by Cleveland Man Who Would Give Burglar's Art Black Eye
Finding the keyhole after a night cut will become a lost art, the burglar's trade will be revolutionized and keys will be classed as curies of the past with the adoption of the device of which Charles L. Kaps, bookkeeper of Cleveland is the inventor.
Mr. Kaps has just been granted patent rights. His invention is a keyless lock. It is a lock operated by push buttons.
All you have to do is to remember your combination and push the buttons the proper number of times and the lock responds as if by magic.
The inventor claims the device works more promptly than a key and that the system is much safer because of the great variety of combinations that may be used.
If the wife alone at home becomes euddenly suspicious that a house breaker may have learned the combination, by a simple adjustment she may change the old combination. Inventor Kaps says the device will be especially well suited to lockers, safes, vaults and safety deposit boxes.

"TELL MARINES," IS OF KINGLY ORIGIN
Expression Had Its Beginning When Ruler Was Told of Flying Fish
Listen! If you "tell it to the marines" be quite sure you have it right, for that warring amphibian is not the credulous personage you have always supposed him to be.
United States marine corps officers have traced the famous saying "Tell it to the marines," to none other than our old friend Samuel Pepps of the diary renown, the original "first nighter," who tells us that the saying had origin with Charles II. the merry monarch of England.
"It so beftell," the story goes, "that his light hearted majesty with an exceedingly bored expression on his swarthy face was walking in the shade with the ingenious Mr. Pepps, secretary of the admiralty."
"I had speech yesterday at Deptford," said Mr. Pepsy, "with the captain of the Defiance, who hath but lately returned from the indies, and who told me the two most wonderful things that ever I think I did hear in my life."
Among the stories told were the fish flying in the air.
"Fish flying in the air," exclaimed his majesty. "Ha, ha, a quint concit, which 'twere too good to spoil wi' keeping. What sir" (the turned and beckoned the Colonel, Sir William Killigrew of the newly raised maritime regiment on foot, who was following, in close conversation with the Duke of York), "we would discourse with you on a matter touching your element. What say you, colonel, to a man who swears he hath seen fishes flying in the air?"
"I should say, sire," returned the sea soldier, simply, "that the man hatted in southern seas. For when your majesty's business carried me hither of late I did frequently observe more flying fish in one hour than the hairs on my head in number."
Old Rowley glanced narrowly, at the colonel's trunk weather beaten face. Then, with a laugh he turned to the secretary and said:
"Mr. Pepys, from the very nature of their calling no class of our subjects can have so wide a knowledge of seas and lands as the officers and men of our loyal maritime regiment. Henceforth, whenever, we cast doubt upon a tale that lacketh likelihood, we will tell it to the marines—if they believe it, it is safe to say it is true."

TIME TO PLANT TREES
Nurseries and Real Estate Mon Plant
Several Varieties
The spring is the favorite time for
planting trees. People are then lookin
forward to the beauty of summer and thinking of improving their
home places. But many experts con
consider the fall equally good for plantin
g. Certainly the work of improving
the town ought to keep up in boh
seasons.
It is a problem nowadays to get
trees that will offer firm resistance to
insect pests. In the early days of this
country elm trees were a special favor
rite. The old time villages used to
go out in gangs and plant them along
their streets. Thousands of old time
towns are today shaded with wonder
ful rows of ancient elms, whose in
terrifying branches form a lovely goth
ie arch.
The wide sweeping curve of elm foliage has unique beauty. In elm shaded regions wealthy men buy trees located miles from their homes merely to preserve the beauty of the view.
Comparatively few elms are planted now. They are too sensitive to insect pests. In the early days the abundant stock of birds held down the trawgers of our foliage. But nowadays there are levee classes of people who think that birds are chiefly valuable for pet pie. This depletes the food supplies, drives away the songsters and removes protection from tree to flame.
Probably the whole country over no tree is more popular than the maple with its thick mass of shade. All who ever visited the city of Paris know the possible beauty of their blooming time. The Lombardy poplar whose tall plumes line the highways for so many thousand miles in France, are increasingly a favorite here. As quick growers they are wonderful to fill bare spots, though their interlacing roots

work havoc. These are only a few of the many varieties the freer planting of which would not merely make real estate more valuable, but add to the charm of the town—Kansas City Star.
"NO LUCK IN MEDICINE"
Paper Says Victories Over Disease Are Not Accidental
The victories which medical science has won over disease have, in very few instances, if ever, been decided by a lucky chance, says a bulletin of the public health service, according to the Pathfinder.
Only by utilizing the accumulated knowledge of centuries and all the information available from his contemporaries has the investigator been able to make significant discoveries leading to the cure or prevention of disease.
Contributions to the medical science of today come from the most diverse sources. The physical chemist determines one fact, the pathologist another, the economist and a host of other specialists make and record their observations and the interpretations which they place upon them
GETS PATENT ON POWER PLOW.
Missourian Perfects Machine After Two Years' Work.
Frank Potter, a farmer who resides about four miles northwest of Carthage Mo, has just received letters patient on an automatic disengaging power plow, on which he has been working two years to perfect.
The particular feature of the plow is the mode of attachment of the gang plows to the engine in such a way that when a rock or stump is struck by one of the plowshares the forward motion of the engine is stopped and the plow can be disengaged. This permits the use of the plow in rocky or stumpy ground, where an ordinary power plow could not be used at all.
The propelling power is a gasoline engine, mounted directly on the frame of the plow, which is a gang, carrying two 12-inch shares.
Two wheels from a binder, known as "bull" wheels, are used in place of the two usual main wheels, while behind these is a smaller single wheel which runs in the furrow behind the plow and serves as a guide wheel. The three wheels are the only ones carrying the machine. The motive power is so arranged that the plow is pulled, just as if horses were attached to it. Mr. Potter has used the machine to do all of his plowing for two years and it has given splendid satisfaction. The engine uses about a gallon and a half of gasoline an acre.
FILIPINOS PLAY BALL.
Also Settle Dispute in School With Boxing Gloves.
That Moro youngsters are now inclined to settling their differences with boxing gloves instead of appealing, as did their fathers before them, to the law of the knife, is one of the more interesting of the features of letters received from time to time at the executive bureau from James E. McCall, acting division superintendent of schools for Cotabato.
Baseball has likewise made a big hit among the Moro kids, and Mr. McCall reports that this game has struck the Piang agricultural school, since last December "like an epidemic," says the Manila Times.
Mr. McCall cities one case where the son of one of the influential families in some way imposed upon a little orphan Tao boy, who immediately called for the gloves, putting on one pair himself and offering the other to the Datun son. After the contest, which lasted about fifteen minutes, the two boys shook hands and walked away arm in arm.
The boys at the Piang school, Mr. McCall says, play baseball before breakfast and continue it during the day in spare time until dark.
Commercial Prudence.
"Has he verified the reports of her wealth?"
"Of course, he has. You don't suppose he would take her at her face value?"
Breaking the News.
"Jibbs expected a rake when he got married."
"The boss raised his eyebrows."
