this type was secured and one acre
of land was planted for seed. It was
found that more than one-half of the
plants were not true to type; that the
seed procured was badly mixed and
that there was decided need for i'm
provement. The seed plants were
carefully "rogued" during the growing
period, and about two-thrids of the
original number of plants were culled
out. Only those showing the most
desirable type were permitted to
grow and produce seed.

rect control of the horticultural de.
partment and as result, we have to-
day pure type of tobacco with good
spread of leaves.
The cleaning OF the seed can be
done in various ways. The illustra-
tion shows an improved type of to-
bacco seed cleaner devised jointly by
members of the horticultural depart
ment. It is modified type of one
designed by the United States depart
ment of agriculture, but differs from
that device in many essential parts.
The machine is automatic and does
not require taking apart to remove
the clean seed. The feed is also
automatic.
The seed is fed into the funnel A
and runs through the glass tube B.
where it meets current of air intro.
duced through the pressure air cham.
Der E, and thence through the tubes
into the glass tube at c. This air cur.
rent blows out all the light seed and
other impurities. The details of the
attachment are shown at the left. The
air enters from the pressure chamber
through tube A, which is brass tube
conducting the air into the brass tube
B. The long glass tube C is fitted air
tight into the brass tube B. This part
of the apparatus is connected with
the air pressure chamber by rubber
tube d. The seed is fed into the
glass tube G at the top and falling
downward is met by the blast CT air
from A and the light seed is blown
out while the heavier seed passes
down the tube A, into the receiving
vessel E.

IMPROVE TOBACCO BY SEED
High Reputation Of Wisconsin Variety
Due Primarily to its Good Burn
ing Quality.
(By e. p. sANDsTEN, University OF

(1y e. p. SANDsTEN, University OF
Wisconsin Experiment station.)
The high reputation of Wisconsin
tobacco is primarily due to its good
burning quality and this fact has
been the main cause for its popular
ity with cigar manufacturers. The
yield per acre of tobacco in the state
has been quite satisfactory in the
past, but shows decline. The rea-
son for this decline can be traced to
two main causes-first, the decline IN
fertility of tobacco land; second, to
the use of poor and impure seed.
The work of improving Wisconsin
tobacco seed was started by the hor-
ticultural department of the expert
ment station about five years ago.

Old Scottish Words.

A correspondent of the Glasgow
Herald submits the following samples
of old Scotch words from East Aber.
deenshire: "Mowse"-To say anything
is nae mowse means it is uncanny or
dangerous. "Connached." - Spoiled;
clean connached would mean utterly
destroyed or rendered useless.
"Blaud." To blaud anything would
mean to soil it. A child would be
told, "Dinna blaud your clean pima"
"Gardies' or "Gaurdies. "A child's

preston, but l have heard it used
"Sic bonnie gardies he has," means

"An' when he comes back from
shooting black-tail up the Gila, with
just one cartridge left, he goes and
kills she silvertip that's naturally
scheduled to eat a magazine full OF
cartridges along with the man who
shoots them. But it's Pink's fool

In the afternoon, however, Hermosa
changed it's mind. Two boys from the
KIT range rode in, big with the i'm
portance of the news they bore
"Thar's been sure 'nough cloud-burst
down yonder on the Seco," said one
excitedly. Game down early this
morning! It's taken off Bojarque's
,ranch-house and that bunch of Mexi
can 'dobes up this side of the canon
and the trail through the gulch is
eight feet under water"
"Wal, wal" said Jim Black, sudden
ly animated, 'the Seco'll be down
again by night, but she's certainly
got old Pink this trip. He was due
in that canon just about the cloud
bursts time
Couldn't have been more than half
way through" assented the bar-keep
'er gloomily. Then Old Man Hooper
nearly asleep, strolled in to hear the
news. "I'm Offering ten to one the
cloud-bursc don't git him, backing
Pinks fool luck on principle" he
growled, and Ferguson, of the Gray
Eagle mine, took the bet.
Pink had ridden away in an exul
tant mood in the dawn, which means
he had ridden just as fast as prod
ding spurs and lashing quirt and the
slapping of big sombrero could make
his angry pony fly along the level six
miles that stretched from the camr
to the canon of the Rio Seco, through
which went the trail to his ranch

A Fool for Luck
By CAROLINE LOCkHART

The smoking lamps in the Dutch
mans at Hermosa were dimmed by
the hot dawn of an Arizona morning
when red-haired, freckled-faced cow
boy staggered out of the door Of the
saloon, laughing boisterously. He
pulled sombrero over his keen gray
eyes and swung himself into the
depths of Gallup cow-saddle; where.

pitched across the road, brought up
against the New York store, and bit
the leg of his rider. This made many
silver dollars clink in the big pocket
of the cowboys "chaps," and he, hear
ing them clink, called derisively to the
group of men who had followed him
out the door-no silver clinked in
their pockets:
when you all think you have
enough dinero to afford me again,
send word down to the Quarter Circle
Bar, an I'll give you another lesson
in stud poker" The broncho squealed
as the spurs dug into his ribs, and
Pink Murry disappeared down Alkali
avenue In a cloud of dust.

the unreformed method was simply to

northern Minnesota and North Dakota.
Passenger trains are being run with
two engines. The trains on all roads
arrived from one to four hours late
in st. Paul.

1t has been only within recent years
that we have been able to know that
the word "alphabet' came to us from
the Phoenicians. Before that we SUP.
posed that it came to us from the He
brews, through the Greek. AS we say
"A B G" the Greeks say "alpha beta"
(the first two letters Of their alphabet),
which when it reached us became cal
phabet.' This we supposed had come
to the Greeks from the Hebrews. who
called their first two letters ''alph" and
"beth." but since then we have found
that both the Greeks and the Hebrews
got the word alphabet from the same
source. which was the Phoenicians.
The people Of Phoenicia had the
same letters. "alph" and "beth," which
have suffered but little change in
sound down to our A and B. Alph
meant simply an OK. the sign Of it
being conventional ox's head. with
the lower part Of the face turned
slightly to its right. and beth meant a
house, which was pictured by the rude
outline of primitive dwelling. which
had a superfluous line added to dis
tingufsh it from other characters very
like it, as we place a tail on @ to
distinguish it from an o. So the first
two letters Of our A B C's were orig.
inally an OK and n horse and pave
