OF Interests.
WRIGHT'S. July 6.-Dr. E. A. Ross
talked al the Farmers Summer School
this afternoon on How Economic
Changes Put New Strains on Public
Men" He prefaced his remarks by
SAYING that his lecture would be d.
vided between the realms OF economics
and politics
Continuing. he said in part: We
find many new economic changes.
First. there is the rise and growth OF
natural monopolies as railroads, tele-
graphs. water companies, street cars,
etc. all OF which have TO do with
Jranspo rJation and communication.
Next. the great scale OF modern indus
NY leads 10 the formation Of q vast
labor market and an increase in the
number Of men employed There is the
business control OF capital. as the coal
oil monopOIies and the Sugar Trust
The effect OF these changes is a draw
ing together and organization of the
labor interests followed by the crea-
ton Of Z general wage level This
causes great struggle between capital
and labor. thrusts new and great prob
lens on the people and the State
The great growth OF corporations
Is interesting 70 notice. At present
fully onetourth Of the enterprises Of
the United States are under the control
OF corporations In the corporation, in
Gividual responsibility is lost by the
separation OF ownership and manage
ment and BY divided ownership. These
changes compel the State 10 take up
new tasks and duties Formerly there
was no monopoly and no law was nee
essary. Now. with great railroads, tel
egraphs. etc. il is absolutely necessary
for the State 70 arbitrate between the
nonopolist and consumer.
The State IS required 20 act in mat
tiers in which vast private interests
are concerned and 70 act BY ordinary
Instruments, its officials. These men
who represent the public interests are
no richer or better paid than formerly,
and as the role Of the State widens,
the interests intrusted TO its care be-
come more vital and the stronger is the
pressure OF sinister interests TO induce
an Official TO betray his trust. Has
there been any serious collapse OF pub
lie officials under this new and excess
siye strain2 Certainly. yes"
Examples proving this were given
and results shown The only way to
cure this evil. he argued, is first, to get
absolutely the best men in the com
uunity and see IL they will stand the
strain To do this we must keep more
free from the party collar, and have a
better system OF nominations. as BY
petition Men who collapse when not
properly supported viii be heroes when
sJanchly upheld BY their constituents.
Every man must know his friends and
enemies. and 70 insure this although
ceplorable. We must absolutely have
3 very aerid. jealous and suspicious
view OF public questions by the people.
II Is the only way TO find the best ma
terial among men Lastly. we must in
crease the number OF competent men,
We must develop new man by z fuller
exercise OF the acknowledged moral
forces, education, public opinion and
religion

How To Read a Book.

The first thing to do in reading q
book, or a story in q magazine, or any
other thing worth reading, is to as
certain who wroteit. An author talks to
us in his books, and just as we like to
know the friends we talk with, we
should like to know the name of the
man or woman whose published
thoughts are entering into our daily
lives. Therefore, make it a rule to
read the title-page of the volume in
your hand; and if there be a preface,
unless it be very long one, read that
too. You will in this way establish
an acquaintance with your author
you will know him by sight, and soon
you will know him more intimately.
Every author has his little ways and
words of his own, and you will find
yourself recognizing these very swift
ly and lovingly. BY and by, when
you happen in your store on some
phrase or turn of a sentence, or little
jesting mannerism which belongs to
the author you are growing we'll ac-
quainted with, you will feel we'll
pleased, and the story will mean a
great deal more to you than if it were
simply the work Of an unknown per-
son whose tones and looks were quite
unfamiliar.

For Inside Walls.

An increasing use is being made of
what is termed "compo board" which
is pronounced superior in some re-
spects to laths and plaster in the con-
struction of inside walls. One-inch
boards are ripped into strips one-quar-
ter of an inch in thickness and four
feet in length. 1t takes but little
time Thoroughly to eradicate all mois-
ture from these strips, and they then
pass through a machine in which, as
they lie solidly edge to edge, they are
covered top and bottom with a spe-
cially prepared building paper which
is cemented with an insoluable ce-
ment. Without further manipulation
the boards are nailed upon the stud
ding of the building in process of erec-
ton, forming a solid wall, which is
now ready for any subsequent treat
ment desired. This compo material
is handled by the carpenter rather than
the plasterer, and is said to consti-
tute a satisfactory sheathing, not only
air tight, but also stiff and strong
enough to take the place of lath or
boarding, while enabling the complete
finishing of the wall without plaster.

Mean Trick on a Hen.

It is by the aid of the marvellous X
ray, at which no one longer marvels,
that the poultryman on a large scale
is enabled to ascertain unerringly the
productive capacity of his fowls. 1t is
Rudolph Spreckles, of California, son
of the sugar king, to whom this novel
idea must be credited. He is the own
er of a vast poultry farm, on which
10000 gaudy chick ems and cackling
hens scratch and seek the early worm.
The hen that does not lay eggs does
not perpetuate her species, hence she
is not commercially valuable, being fit
only for the pot or the broiler, and
that is an end to her usefulness and
her money-making qualities. But the
hen that lays-she is indeed a joy for
years.
On a ranch of 10000 hens, 1000 OF
the birds may be classed as of the nOn-
producing class. Hence it occurred
to Mr.. Spreckles that if the drones
were eliminated from his flock, the
cost of the maintenance of the whole
would be materially reduced. A nest
to.nest surveillance was impossible.
The Improbable hen might live in
idleness and luxury undetected for an
indefinite period. Mr.. Spreckles had
read of the location of vagrant bullets,
stray buttons and elusive fish bones in
the human frame by means of the
radiograph. Why not cause the hen
to give up its secrets? Two experts
in the use of the Roentgen rays were
called in. They stated that they be-
lieved they would be able to differen-
tiate the layers from the non-layers.
By way of experiment half dozen
chickens were selected from the ranch
and placed before the fiuoroscent
screen. Of these, the first four were
found to contain eggs. The other
two appeared to be barren. The
proof of the finding was in the killing
of the hens. The X-rays had revealed
truly. The next day hens OF known
reputation-both good and bad-were
selected and the results shown by the
photographs were verified by post-mor-
tenn examination.
As a result, an X-ray plant was
established at the Spreckles ranch
and the work of examining the 1O,0OO
hens was commenced. About thirty
hens each hour can be submitted to
this rigid examination. There has
been O glut in the dressed poultry

A Slender Thread of Mercury.
Boston Transcript,

Boston Transcript.
While almost any one knows about
the principles on which an ordinary
thermometer operates, there are a
number of things about this apparent.
ly simple little instrument which are
not generally known, and which are of
good deal of interest. One of the
most peculiar of these is the question
of the length of tube which the mer-
curry in the bulb of an ordinary ther-
mometer would fill if it were all
stretched out in single column the
size of that in the tube.
Most people, when asked how long
this would be, would probably say
from 5 to Is feet, while as a matter of
fact this column of mercury would in
an extremely delicate instrument be
miles in height. The reason of this is
that the column of mercury, while it
appears quite large, is really of almost
infinitesimal size. If the tube of q
thermometer is broken one is at first
at loss to see where the mercury
goes in, but close examination will
disclose fine line, much thinner than
hair, running across the end of the
tube, and this is one end of q little
slit in which the mercury rises. AS it
has its fiat side toward the eye it ap-
pears to be quite large, and the con.
vexity of the outside of the tube,
through which it is seen, magnifies it
and gives it that rounded appearance
which is so deceptive. The reason
why the slit is made so small is to give
the greatest ratio of result for the ex-
pansion of the mercury in the bulb.
