BLUE GRASS
IL Il n Native of the wabash Valley
In Indiana.

IL Il n Native of the wabash Valley
In Indiana.
"a great many people contend that
blue grass was first found in Ken
lucky" said an eminent Indiana geolo-
gist, but this IL not so. Blue grass
Is native OF the Wabash valley, in
Indiana. 1t was found by William
Henry Harrison's troops during that
solemn march to Tippecanoe in 1911.
Harrison gathered a small army at
Ohio Falls and started north. At Vim
cennes the gallant heroes realized that
they could not go 200 miles up the
Wabash without feed for their horses.
General Harrison had two cribs of
corn at Terre Haute and persuaded the
men to go on. AS they came on with
hungry horses and scant feed they
found the ground covered with blue
grass.
"Six miles west Of Newport, on the
Collett farm, was found a bOuntiful
supply of blue grass. Some places in
the bottom it was growing three feet
high, and such feed had never been
heard of by the Kentucky soldier. At
State Line City more blue grass was
found, and from there to TippecanOe
the whole line Of march was covered
with blue grass.
1.-THE seed was carried back to Ken
lucky and sown there, but they could
not make it thrive alone in the warm
soil, and it had to be sown with oats
and rye. Mr. Sandusky told me in an
early day that no blue grass grew in
Kentucky until after it was imported
from Indiana. Tom Downing Of Terre
Haute was an ardent admirer Of Hen
ry Clay and once went to visit him at
his home near Ashland, Ky. After
seeing the fine farm well set i'm blue
grass Downing suggested that Mr..
Clay let him have some Of the seed TO
take back to Indiana.
"'Tom, don't make a fool Of your
self said Clay. The grandsire Of
Kentucky blue grass is growing
around your house and in the fence
corners Of your fields. We got the
seed from Terre Haute and the mid
die Wabash and after hard struggle
got it TO grow here in its present lux
uriousness.' indianapolis Journal.

MONKEY MOTHERS.
They Display More Pure Affection
Than Any other Animal.

=
Than Any other Animal.
A wild beast tanner of long expert
ence tells some interesting things of
the affection of animals for their
young. He had an elephant once, he
says, who did all In her power to spoil
her young one. She fused over 1t and
cuddled it up so that when the time
came for 1t to leave the cage it was
simply unmanGgeable. When one OF
the men made a bold move toward the
baby he was promptly butted in the
stomach and bowled over in peculiar
way which the youngster had Of ex-
pressing his feelings toward those
whom he disliked. At last by ruse
the mother and son were separated
But there was no such thing as keep
ing them apart. The baby rubbed the
skin OF its forehead and trunk trying
to get through the bars, and both
walled so long and piteously that the
keeper was obliged to put them to-
gether again.
a shy baby camel that passed
through the hands of this same trainer
refused to look upon the world except
from its favorite station between its
mothers legs The mother, too, would
show her displeasure at any effort to-
ward intimacy by splitting violently at
every one in sight.
The kangaroo also is very fond of
her offspring and will patiently carry
it about long after it is ready to hop on
its own account.
But for a display of pure affection
the mother monkey beats any other
animal, and when there is an addition
to the family circle there is general re-
joicing. A baby monkey sticks fast by
it's mother, and, asleep or awake, II
seems always in her thoughts.
