Nature very reluctantly combines
size and quality.
IT you let your wife raise the heifer
calf she will be sure to get it too fat,
clay soil than it does to loan or sandy
soils. a
The spring wheat belt extends 1000
miles northwest from Winnipeg, Man.
The corn belt is all settled and fenced

We believe that there are more old
log houses within twenty miles of the
capitol at Washington than there are
in the whole state Of Iowa.
The small boy who persists in rob

A man who was out hunting quail
during June in western state was
killed by the accidental discharge of
his gun. He was killed in season while
trying to kill quail out of season.
Every man we saw plowing in Penn
.sylvania, Virginia and West Virginia
lately was using a left handed plow, a
.plow which threw the dirt to the left
instead Of the right. We did not find
out why this was.
Washington is the only city in Amer
lea which has no back yard. Every
street is paved; the most beautiful Of
shade trees everywhere; the mean and
disagreeable, the uncouth and offen-
.sive, are all covered and hidden; even
the poorest negro cabin is white
washed.
It seems as II there is no end to the
number Of men who want to know how

grass, pocket gophers and Canada this
ties. Men are always more active and
interested in trying to get rid of their
misertes than they are In hustling to
:secure their blessings.
We know Of one man who has the
right sort Of grit. The early floods de-
rstroyed his field Of oats. He then disk
ed it over and planted to corn, which
the June floods wiped out, and now he
is preparing the field again and will
grow crop Of fax. Calamity can't
beat this type Of man. a..
It must have been an awful squeeze
in the far back world building era
which formed the Allegheny noun
tatns, for all the rock strata were push
ed up at an inclination of forty five de-
:grees. In crossing these mountains it
is rare to find any deposit of rock with
"a horizontal strati6cahon. -.
A storm cave Is like an insurance
policy good thing to have even though
you may never WANT to use it: One
can be made to be- entered from the
cellar for small sum, and it will seem
worth about $4,000 if some day you
see the funnel and hear the unearthly
roar of the demon Of the air. -..-"s-e..aaa,ss
The pine ridge country in Nebraska
grows forests with a rainfall of only
16 inches year. Millions of acres in
western Kansas upon which tree has
never grown get from 16 to 20 inches.
of rainfall a year, which would indi-
cate that forests may yet be grown in
that treeless, region when the right
kind Of trees are planted and the right
treatment is given them.
It is the age of economies. Here is
the discovery made that the worthless
and unreliable old pine stump Of the
north lumber regions can be so treated
chemically as to make each cord Of
such stumps produce value Of $3.50
in wood extracts-oil, alcohol, rosin.
tar, etc. The old stump by this proc
ess becomes more valuable than the
tree which grew upon it in the old
days.
There Is gross Inconsistency here:
The robin. which Is we'll protected by
law In nearly all the northern states
where he breeds. becomes a common
game bird when he migrates to the
southern states In the fall. and these
birds are slaughtered by the thousand
