GRADUATES IN DEMAND.
Young Men Educated in the Science
of Agriculture Have Bright
Future Before Them.

Four or five years ago, says the San
Francisco Chronicle, we warned our
readers that graduates in agriculture
would soon be in greater demand than
any other class of educated men, and
that Young men and women who would
at once enter a first-rate agricultural
college would find their careers ready
for them at the end of their course.
That prediction has come true. The
department of agriculture Is securing
the country for promising young men
who have been educated to do it's work.
We do not suppose that single one of
our readers was led by our prophecy
IN enter an agricultural course, and we
would not now venture to repeat IT..
The advantage of pioneering is gone.
The demand is rapidly producing the
supply from the young men of states
whose people are better informed and
more alert than our own, and students
who enter now will probably find them
selves at graduation exposed to strong
competition which only the fittest can
survive, and perhaps ne better off than
graduates in law, medicine, electric
ity and the like who are walking the
streets in search of a job. But; never
theless, while the day of the "sure
thing" for the graduate in agriculture
Is past, and his reward not likely to
equal those of the most brilliant and
successful graduates in sther profess
sions, the opportunities, on the whole,
are still far better than those In most
other lines Of achievement.

IS A GOOD PRACTICE.
West Virginia Experiment station
RecOmme end the Soaking of
Corn for Hogs.

In Bulletin so the West Virginia ex-
pertinent station reports on its exper-
iments in soaking corn for hogs:
Nearly all of the pork which is
produced in the United States is de-
rived from corn-fed hogs, yet very
few experiments have ever been per-
formed to determine the best and
most economical way of feeding corn.
The following experiment was
planned to determine whether soak
ing corn in water affects in any way
its food value. Poland-China-Duroc-
Jersey and Poland-C China Berkshire
cross-bred pigs were used in the ex-
pertinent. They were divided into
two lots similar in respect to size,
breed and sex. From car load of
western corn sufficient was produced
for the experiment. A portion OF
this was ground into meal and the
remaining shelled corn was soaked
in water, as needed, until the grains
were soft. The meal was mixed with
water before being fed. No attempt
was made to feed the same quanti-
ties of meal and soaked corn, but
each lot was fed all that it would eat
up clean.
The lot fed soaked corn consumed
Abs pounds of corn and gained in
weight SIS pounds. For 100 pounds in
live weight they consequently re-
quired 3S5 pounds of corn. The lot
fed on corn meal required 40 pounds
of meal for 100 pounds gain, there
fore the soaked corn produced the
more economical gain, to say nothing
about the extra expense of grinding
the corn.
AS very few experiments have ever
been performed to determine the ef-
feet of soaking grain upon it's digest
Utility, the subject requires further
study. The result of our experiment
indicates, however, that it is good
practice.

CAUSES OF DROUGHT.
II II Partly Due to the Destruction OF
Forests and Growth of
Arid Lands.

81 do not know exactly what direct
influence the presence or absence of
forests has on the climate" said Sec
rotary of Agriculture Wilson recently
to a correspondent of the New York
Sun, "but know this, that the dew
astation of the ranges is resulting in
the growth of the arid lands of the
west; that these arid lands cannot be
irrigated for lack of water and that
the lack of water is partly due to the
destruction of the forests at the
sources of the streams.
~ have sent experts into the west
ern country and have directed that
every source of information shall be
utilized to obtain all the data pos
sible concerning the hot wave, its
causes and effects. I think we can safe
ly promise some highly important and
interesting information for our next
monthly crop bulletin on August TO-"
Clifford Pinchol, chief of the forestry
bureau, who has done much to arouse
national interest in this subject, is
now on tour of inspection, but the
acting head of the bureau gave it as
his opinion that the hot spells of the
middle west were undoubtedly due in
part to the destruction of the forests,
and especially in Michigan and Mime
sofa, about the headwaters of the
streams.
IF the people of the west continue
to alter the face of nature" he said,
they must expect to change natural
conditions

PIE pI.y. Role Of Cupid.

This happened at Wilkesbarre, Pa;
An old bachelor and matured maid
en-their combined ages exceeding
a century-fondled the same orphan
pig so much and so long over the
same slop pail that both claimed It.
The man was hog enough to take 1t
and the maid piggish enough to sue
him for possession. The judge, emu
lating Solomon, said: "I'll have 1t
killed and divided equally between
you" Both objected. "Then there's
only one other way, and that's for
you two to get married and keep the
pig in the family" They did, then
and there. -,

An Elevator in the Monument.

Not all of us have viewed the ma
tional capital from the top of Wash
ington monument, but it will hereafter
be easy to do so if on the spot. The
shaft has been equipped with an ele-
vator, and the new lift" which rises
SIS feet to the top, is provided with
electrical cut-offs and mechanical
grips of every kind SO as to insure
the safety of the public. In the opin-
ion of the government engineering Of
ters, it would be impossible for the
car to fall any distance, no matter
what might happen to the machinery.
The new car will not be put into serv-
ice for the public for about a week.
In the meantime the machinery will
be run daily and the attendants and
engineers practiced in it's operation.
In favorable weather the view from
the top of the monument is magnifi-
cent one, comprehending the city and
much historic country.

All over this country are hundreds

only temporarily palliate the distress,
but never effect q cure. Remedies for
dyspepsia have multiplied so rapidly
that they are becoming as numerous
as the leaves of the forest, and yet
dyspepsia continues to flourish In
spite of them all. This Is due to the
fact that the cause Of dyspepsia Is NOT
recognized as catarrh.

Publishing in the Nineteenth Century


LFrom the London Morning Post1
A comparison between the figures for
the end of the century and for those of
its earlier years gives some interesting
results. According to the old London
Catalogue" there We're less than six
hundred new books published annually
during the first twenty-seven years OF
the century But if we turn to the ad-
nirable and indispensable. English
Catalogue published by Messrs- Samp-
son Low & Co. we shall find that there
has been an average yearly issue of
about FIVE thousand new books during
the queens reign 1.-THE English Cata-
logue', contains the entries of more than
three hundred thousand volumes pub
lished in English during the last sixty
FIVE years.
The British Museum Catalogue is, of
course, the greatest help of all. and the
most wonderful performance of its kind
in the world. But there are six hundred
volumes of it. and the sets of it in cir
culation are few and highly prized-nOt,
by any means. too highly for their
worth but for the pockets of book buy
ers. even if there are people who would
care TO buy catalogue in six hundred
huge folfo-volumes, in which forty thou
sand new entries must be made every
year. As most of our readers are aware,
the compilation of a subject index is TO
be the next great undertaking at the
library of the British Museum. If it be
taken in hand shortly the public of the
wear 1915, or thereabouts, will see its
completion.
