Horses Ent Much More Thnn Sheep.
To the Editor;
Here Is the answer TO 1.-TWO Kinds OF Appe-
tites" Two hundred and seventy sheep and II
horses eat lOi OF grass In 30 days therefore
one day they eat ll-30 acres And 1856 sheep
and 81 horses eat 1855 acres In rs days: therefore
In ono day they eat 27-l5 acres. Now we have
two equations. namely: Surface Of grass con-
sumed by 27O sheep and IA horses In one day
equals ll-3O acres. and surface Of grass con-
s:ned by l55 sheep and 2l horses, In the same
time. equals 27-l5 acres. Dividing the nrst
equation by the second and dividing the second
equation Ivy we have CD the surface consumed
by 1856 sheep and horses equals l-60 acres
and t9 the surface consumed by 81 2-3 sheep and
horses equals 3 7-ij acres. Subtracting equation
two from equation one we have surface consumed
by 50 Ia sheer equals 3 1885 acres therefore the
surface consumed by one sheep In one day equals
3i-3 900 acres or / 1915 square rods. In a smi-
lar manner the surface consumed by one horse in
day Is found to be 62-lO5 square rods
Therefore the amount eaten by one sheep In any
given time, as compared with what the horse
eats in the same time. is In the same ratio as
1918 is to 62-lO5; that is. the horse eats
2r4-2l7 times as much as the sheep. The ratio
is 2i7 to s65. A. d. RAPRAER.

PENDLETON'S BANK.

The directors of the Farmer.
Bank of Pendleton county, met re-
Gently and declared a dividend ot
eight per cent. We understand that
not one share of the stock can be
purchased. The bank has not on '
proven to be a great convenience to
the people of that section, so remote
from banks, but it is perfectly safe
investment, yielding a larger per
cent. to the stock holders than any
other business in which they could
have placed their money. The d.
rectors contemplate the erection Of
a new bank building in the near flu
ture. Highland county could pos
sess this great convenience if the
leading citizens would only make
the start.

The World is in good humor ov-
er the prospect Of the passage of the
Wilson bill and says:
AS the Democrats have a major
ity in the Senate the bill cannot be
changed except by Democratic votes
and Democratic Senators are no
more likely than Democratic Rep
resentatives to be stampeded by The
crv that "the country is being
plunged into free trade" They
know that the Wilson bill is really
a highly protective measure. They
know that the tax it levies aver
ages 5 per cent. higher than was
by the Republican
Tariff Commission of 1854. And
they know that the agitation a.
gainst it is simply the last desperate
effort of the trusts and pampered
industries to preserV" their priVi-
leges.

What's That Tappingl

Charles S. Hunter yesterday plac-

vertising device. 1t was designed
to call attention to the handsome
suit of furniture on exhibition there
and which is to be disposed of to
the best advantage for the benefit
of the Stonewall Brigade band.
The device is a piece of electrical

instead Of bell, and keeps up an
incessant tapping which can not
fail to arrest the attention of the
passer-by.
