This subject is represented by a beautiful young lady sitting
in a rustic chair. beneath the overhanging branches of fine
old elm tree she is fautlessly dressed, with her long, golden
ringlets hanging down over her shoulders; in her lap is a show

in the distance tower mountain peaks. Taken as a whole. it

News Miscellany.

The Harrisburg Independent
makes the following practical sug-
gcstions concerning our public
roads, which ifpassed into a law
would be of-greater public benefit
to the people generally than any
law we have had for years:
eve want n new road law compell-
ing supervisors to macadamlze Il Ger
tain number of miles every year. If
such law haI been passed twenty
years ago, to day we would have ele-
giant roads in every section Of the coun-
try, and it would have been done at n
Fcraat saving to the tax payers of the
country. There is another thing that
should be done, and that is TO plant
trees on both sides of the roads. In
the sum mer months driving oyer our
roads is killing on the horses, and any
thing but pleasant to the people who
travel over the roads. There is any
quantity of dust, but no shade. 1t is
nothing but the broilihg hot sun and
dust.
In Europe the public roads are lined
on either side with shade trees, which
is great relief to the horses and
travellers. The great majority of farm
erS in this country seem To have an
aversion to shade trees. There are
comparatively few farm houses in the
country that are surrounded 10y shade
Crees. Tney are exposed all day to the
rays Of the brOiling sun, aud must be
anything but comfortable at night.

What Causes the BloOd to Circulated

n"o NouoSo otS DlIOu tO Clrcu1aUek
TO what degree the heart is aided by
other forces is yet matter of investi.
cation. Probably there are several
forces assisting. The elasticity of the
arteries increases their carrying ca
pacity. They are firm, elastic tubes.
which expand under the pressure from
each heart contraction, and then by
their own elasticity contract and help
the onward flow of the blood. In the
smaller arteries the flow loses the inter
mittent character it possesses in the
larger arteries, and becomes a steady
stream. The elasticity of the arteries
serves precisely the same purpose as the
air chamber of any force-pump, that of
equalizing the flow, and so increasing
the amount delivered. The whole
force is derived from the heart; the ar
teries cause the force to act continu-
ously.
The veins are lax tubes, somewhat
larger than the arteries, and capable of
holding all the blood in the body.
They convey the same amount of blood
as the latter, but more slowly. In the
larger veins, however, near the auricles,
the velocity may be 200 millimeters per.
second. They are provided with valves
which efectually prevent the blood
irom flowing backward to the heart.
Any compression. produced by muscu-
far contraction, or otherwise, will there
lore assist the forward flow of yenous
blood. This is one explanation why ex-
ercise hastens the circulation. The
movement of the chest in breathing
probably aids the pulmonary circula-
tlon, the blood, as well as the atmos-
phere, tending to fill the vacuum during
inspiration.
Physical capillary force is not gen
orally regarded as an active force in the
circulation. But there is an admitted
force in the capillaries, resulting from
the attraction of the tissues for the ar
terial blood, containing the required
oxygen and nutriment. "The vital con-
dition of the tissue becomes q factor in
the maintenance of the circulation "
1t is this force, primarily, which adapts
the amount of blood to the varying
need of any organ; the nervous system
regulates the supply by varying the
caliber of the vessels.
4 The force in the capillaries, or some
other force, carries the blood, after
death, from the arteries, where the heart
leaves it, into the veins. Finding the
z teries empty after death gave rise to
the idea that they conveyed only air
whence the name. It was this belief
which Harvey overthrow in 1920. =

A Fargo lDnkota) correspondent says.
Ihave Just iinisheda ride OF many miles
over the wheat region Of the great
Northwest, through the Red River val.
Icy and on west. The great Dalrymple
and Williams farms have been fully de-
scfibed, so I will not enlarge on their
immensity, but tell your readers how
they start new towns here, and the
cause Of the mighty inflow Of brains and
capital. It may be all summed up in
the word wheat" but this does not
tell the whole story. Accepting the in
vitation of friends at Buffalo, forty
miles west of this point, we drove
twenty-five miles south over the endless
prairie, reaching the southwest branch
Of the Northern Pacific. Here a town is
springing up, it being one of thousands
on all the new lines building out of
Fnrgo. Six weeks ago the great prairie
was dotted by the occasional hut of the
homesteader--now the black line of the
railroad grade stretches as far as the eve
can reach. A month ago Sheldon was
unknown; now there are two stores, a
boarding postofice, blacksmith
shop, etc. And so itisall over the country.
Hundreds of sections are being sold
daily, and the wheat crop is being
threshed out by the thousands of bushels.
How about the profits of wheat
raising? Careful judges practically
agree that, with land at from $3.50 TO
81 per acre, the permanent investment
ready for theft rst crop will be eabout SI1
per acre for section. This includes
buildings and the ground ready for the
nrst crop, Subsequent crops can be
grown for $3.50. The yield ranges
from fifteen to thirty bushels per acre,
OF the finest quality, and this, at AN av-
cage Of twenty bushels per acre, with
prices at 81 per bushel, pays an enor-
nous interest. This figures on the basis
Of hiring everything done while the

To Measure a High Object.

Persons are sometimes desilous TO
lind the exact height of an object
which they cannot climb or measure bv
any direct process, as of tree or build
ing or steeple. This can be readily
done by measuring some lower object
and its shadow and then making a com
parlson or calculation. Even a child
can do it. Take a pole of any given
h1elgtat; place it in an absolutely perpen-
dicular position; measure on the level
ground the length of the shadow;
measure the length of the shadow ~
the tree; then multiply the lenofh of
the trees shadow by the HEIGHT ef the
pole and divide the product bv tbe
length Of the shadow of the pole For
instance, if the pole is six feet bio h. its
shadow ten, and the shadow of the tree
fifty, the height of the tree will be
thirty feet.
