Is given to 1t, but instead of remaining
parallel to its original direction, 1.-THE
plane OF rotation has an angular veloc-
ity, first about the direction Of trans
lation, and second about a line In It's
plane perpendicular to this The eff
rect of the latter is that the path
curls to the left, while owing to the
former the plane of rotation inclines
over to the right, 1. e., rotates in the

After 1t has described nearly a COM
plete circle the boomerang goes more
slowly, and finally falls near the feet
Of the thrower. In figures Nos. and

projections on a horizontal and on a
vertical plane. Until the velocity be-
comes small the up hill path is nearly
straight, but the moment that point
has been reached the weapon starts
to return along a track close to that
of the ascent
If the thrower wishes the weapon to
describe a second circle in front Of
him, he must cast it from him with
much greater force, so that after one
circle has been described it may still
have sufficient velocity to make a
second one. Moreover, after the weap-
on has described the first circle and
while it is over the thrower's head the
axis of rotation must point in an up
ward direction In front of him, for If
it points behind him the subsequent
path will be behind his back, and a
figure Of eight will become possible.

of the thrower is desired, a boomerang

Probably the most important an

1t is reported that the yield Of maca-
roni wheat will be from thirty-hve to
forty bushels per acre, which is one
third more per acre than the average
yield Of the regular wheat from this
section.
The establishment of this new wheat
Industry will be of incalculable benefit
to agriculture in the semi-arid plains.
A million or more of acres can thus be
given to profitable wheat raising
which, on account of drought, have
heretofore been entirely idle.
Macaroni wheats differ radically
from the ordinary bread wheats The
grain is much harder, and in the best
varieties contains an unusual amount
Of nitrogen and a correspondingly
small amount of starch. The quantity
and quality Of the gluten make it ex-
ceedingly valuable for making maca-
roni.
The area outlined by the Department
of Agriculture where macaroni wheat
will succeed best is a long belt extend
ing northward and southwark through
the great plain from North Dakota to
the Texas coast. In width it embraces
nearly the whole Of the two DakOtas

Flight of the Australian Weapon Ana

The wonderful flights Of the boom
erang, described by travellers, are sell
dom seen to-day, and, though there are
many natives of Australia who can
make boomerang go to a distance Of
24O feet before it returns to them,
there seems to be only one trustworthy
account Of a much more sensational
throw. According to this account a
boomerang described five circles in
the air, travelled to a distance Of about
go feet from the thrower and rose to
a height of 1876 feet.
There are two principal types Of
this weapon, as described by a recent
Rxperimenter. The first shown in
figure No. 1, is bent almost to a right
angle, and has the cross section shown
In No. 2. The cross section diminishes
slightly toward the ends, and the
weight is about 23O grams. The arms
are twisted from the plane, like the
sails of a windmill, being rotated in
the direction Of righthanded screw.

The PaHain9 of the LAWYER.

The editor Of the American Lawyer,
Mr.. Chaplin, is despondent over the out
look Of the legal profession. In 1891
there were So law schools in this coun-
try, with SOTO students. Now there are
12O, with $4,000 students. The last CEN
sus recorded 114,000 lawyers in active
practice. 1t is the most crowded of all
the professions, except teaching and
medicine. And, according to Mr.. Cha
pin, lawyers chance Of business is
something like an inverse ratio to the
supply Of lawyers. All law business, he
says, may be divided into ten parts
reckoned proportionately thus: Real
estate 2, corporations 2, commercial
business and collections g wills and es-
tates /, accident and neglience suits l,
defence of criminals l. In all these, Mr..
Chaplin says, except the last, the law
yer is beginning to be superseded by
other agencies. The unattached lawyer
finds it difficult to compete with the
title insurance companies In real estate.
Such companies have standing that
most lawyers cannot reach, and they
do business on such a scale that they
can take fees that most lawyers cannot
afford. In corporation practice SINH
lar situation arises from the fact that
many corporations keep legal depart
ment and incorporation companies
can and do provide the legal work for
new corporations at fee that an in
dependent lawyer can hardly afford.
Collection agencies with ten-dollars-a-
week employees take collection business
at a rate that the independent lawyer
cannot afford to work for. Then there
are fidelity and casualty companies that
have great influence with reference to
negligence and accident suits, while the
"ambulance-chasing and contingent
fee-extracting shyster" generally gath
ers up what the casualty companies
leave. In criminal practice, Mr. Chapin
saws. the work Is concentrating itself
into a few hands, divided into reputable
firms and extremely disreputable ones.
AS a conclusion, he thinks that within
20 years the individual or general prac-
tice lawyer will be extinct, except IN
remote country districts. AS a calling
he declares, the law Is fast becoming
obsolete. e.-Indianapolis News.
