GopherS.

PTdlTle dogs ana SIOuHu spur
Tels 1--we in colonies. They are
merry rodents. But the gopher
burrows into the earth alone, anG
naturalIsts tell Us that he is the
most unamiable and vicious of the
Sciurida family. He lives sad
life, seldom coming to the surface,
never gambling over the green
earth, never feeding on the fresh
hel bage or fruit. but only on the
roots of vegetables and trees. A
pamphlet. issued by the United
States Department of Agriculture,
says of him:
"The fierce disposition is just
what might be expected from the
solitary mode of life From the
time The 3oung are half grown and
big enough to start burrows of
their own, each Individual lives en-
tirely alone, except during the
short mating season in early spring.
Living alone and in the dark fer
eleven months in the year, is not
calculated to develop lovable dis
position. To the same. causes
darkness and solitude-may also
be attributed the gopher's small
eyes and ears, narrow brain case
and unGcvrloped voice"
"A popular agricultural journal
takes the gopher as text, and
eaches an excellent sermon on
the Importance of rural sociability.
The tendency among American
farmers IS to locate on quarter
section. They buy all the land
around it that they can, SO as to
have as few ne'ghbors as possible,
and rhe few as far off as possible
The re$ulr of this is a narrow, sell
fish life, and / do npt wonder that
the SOILS of such farmers are dis
cont ented and want to get into
town. IL we would make the coun-
try attractive, we must try to bring
the farmers nearer together and
make them more social. But how
can this be done?
We have Gods plan in the
book of Joshua. When he brought
the Hebrews out of Egypt and
gave them possession of their
promised land he made every man
a freeholder. But the allotment
of farms and vineyards was such
that their owners could live to-
gether in villages, going out daily
to cultivate their fields, and return
ing in the evening, so that they
could meet in the market place
There were no tenants, and but
little shifting of the population, for
if man sold his inheritance it
came back to him or to his child
rem in the year OF jubilee. Our
farmers ought to study this divine
ideal, and conform to it as far and
as fast as they can.
Interesting experiments in COM
bining town and country are now
being tried in the orchard regions
of California. Where ten acres
will support family, fifty or sixty |
families can live on the same
square mile, and can have their |
homes so near together that they |
can meet IS easily as those who in
habit villages. Such a community |
can enjoy, with its pure country |
air, a great many social advanta-
ges. 1t can have a common read |
ing room, weekly reunions, con-
certs. lyceums. etc. Life in such |
a rural village, with homogeneous
would be more health |
ful. intellectually and morally, |

Under no conditions could the ris-

Why Old Violins Are Best.

Fabulous prices are sometimes paid for
old violins, and many an enthusiastic
musician would part with his last dollar
to possess ono of the masterpieces Of Strad-
ivarius or Guarnerius or another of the fa-
nous makers Of n century or two ago.
The unquestioned superiority of these
old and often battered instruments has
been variously ascribed to the peculiar
quality Of the varnish used In their con-
struction, to the elasticity Of the wood
employed and to the ripening and improv.
Ing effects Of age and long use.
But at the meeting Of the American
Association For the Advancement of Sci
enoe reasons were shown for believing that
the real cause OF the superiority OF the old
instruments Is due to a peculiar warping
Of the wood to a higher arch, buckling
caused by the position of the + holes and
soundpost"
/ 1t might be thought that the same effect
could be produced by giving an equal
arohing to new instrument, but the eff
feet II attained is not permanent, because
with age the arohing increases until too
great degree Of rigidity Is the result.
| The substitution of aluminium for wood
In the making Of violins has been suggest

soundboards Of aluminium resemble in
tone those made Of wood, and that an alu.
