Getting Speed From a Horse.

From the Strand Magazine.
Why does a man seated near the neck
of a horse travel faster than one seated
near his tail? For it has been proved
within recent years in very striking fash
ion that he does. But why?
The reason is very simple, and yet when
little Tod Sloan. the jockey, came for
ward with practical proof nobody seemed
to be able to explain it. A horse to move
forward at all must thrust at the earth
and the chief force of this forward
thrust comes from his hind legs. If the
chief weight is just over or close to the
thrusting power naturally it diminishes
its efficiency: instead of thrusting the
horse forward a portion of it is wasted in
lifting the weight OF the jockey at every
stride

Comforting at Least.

From HarperS Weekly.
An amusing story is told at the ex-
pense of young Baltimore lawyer. who.
like most attorneys. got his first case by
assignment from the bench. His client
had been indicted for murder and his con-
viction was foregone conclusion.
The result of the trial was sentence
to be hanged, but the man appealed to
the governor for a pardon.
Il got good news for you-very good
news" the young lawyer said, grasping
the mans hand.
Did the governor. Is it pardon?'
the man exclaimed joyously.
..Well-no. The fact is the governor
refuses to interfere, but an uncle of
yours has died and left you 500. and
YOU have the satisfaction of knowing
that your lawyer got paid. you know
was the comforting explanation.

day so 1t has been cutting beyond It's
capacity. The factory has broken tho
worlds record for its size. as in one
day 1t cut 800 tons and 500 pounds of
baats
There were planted for this year
nearly 5000 acres of beets, and from
mat acreage over 20, 900 tons have been
delivered from which over 10000 bags
of sugar will be made.
Lewiston herself planted this year
s,zVo acres, from which $4,000 tons of
peets nave been delivered, making an
average tonnage throughout of 1922
tons per acre and an average tonnage
from Lewiston alone Of II Ali ions per
acre.
The factory will pay the farmers for
beets alone this year $4,000.
Some of the largest beet growers are

pounds OF sugar will be made which
is OF the highest quality and finds
ready market here and in the east,
greatly in raising beets but about 800
men find employment during the fall
campaign, and large force is kept
en- in the summer shipping sugar,
repairing machinery, etc. AboutS l1p,-
100000 will SO to employees. besides
thousands of dollars is paid for lime
rock, coal. coke, bags, new machinery,
etc. which swcls the total to pro-
probly q million dollars, which Is
spent each year by this mill and finds
its way in the channels of trade.
The by-products of the company
arc being used more and more each
year. Practically all of the low grade
syrups are sold at a good profit to
pickle works and feeding companies,
and the pulp is sold to beet raisers
and cattle and sheep men who APP
prcciate it more each year for fat
tening purposes.
Since its inception here the beet
industry has taught the farmers to
be better farmers and to scientifically
wotk their lands. AS an instance. one
beet raiser of Moroni who is also a
large sheep and cattle man, and who
plants each year from 5 to 20 acres
in bcctS, at any time of the year Will
buy all the fertilizers he can get and
keeps his hand ALWAYS in the best OF
condition. Is. so doing he is able to
cloar from $4,000 to $4,000 per acre
each year and he only directs his
work, as he hires all the labor done.
