PROF. SHAW MAKES PROPHECY

Edmonton, Alta, Aug. 26.-"Within
a period of ten years, or less, the
United States will be importing
wheat from the grain fields of West
ern Canada"
This was the somewhat remark
able statement made in Edmonton by
Prof. Thomas Shaw, formerly profess
sor of animal husbandry in the Min
nesota State University, and who is
now assisting James J. Hill, of the
Great Northern, to bring the farmers
along his lines of railway to reali-
zation of the fact that methods for
the preservation of the fertility of
the soil are Immediately necessary.
The above statement is the key to
sions which are creeping mysterious
s'ions which are creeping mysterious
ly across the Canadian border in the
direction of the wheat centers of the
northwest. The professor acknowl-
edged as much.
Prof. Shaw is the central figure of
a party of seven prominent United
States agricultural editors and jour
nalists who are touring the Canadian
West in a private car. He based his
statement on statistics he produced
to show an alarming decrease in
Weld per acre in the western states
"Since the virgin soil OF the west
ern states was broken over 81 years
ago." he said, "the yield of wheat per
acre has decreased from Is bushels
per acre to -. It is quite true that
there is a large crop this year; in
fact larger than for some years. But
the yield per acre is decreasing. and
the population is rapidly on the in.
crease. There will come 4 tine pos.
sibly in less than ten years, when
the consumption is greater than the
yield. I can see no other result
than the United States must ulti
mately buy wheat from Canada. The
acreage in the western states is linn
ited.. In Canada only the fringe las
| feen touched upon.''
edo you think, in view Of your
prophecy, that the increase of duty
on wheat to 80 cents was an unwise
mover" the professor was asked.
Il do personally, I heartily disap
prove of it,
! That James J. Hill will be carry
| ing grain from western Canada over
his own lines, to the mills and ele
vators of Minneapolis and Duluth
within the next decade is another
statement made by Prof. Shaw.
II A system of branch lines Is being
built, diverging from various points
ON this trunk line through the north

A STRANGE TRIBE.
The Touaress, to Whom Timbuktu
Owes Its Oriuin.

A recent explorer, journeying from
Tripoli across the great desert Of Sa-
hara, gives account Of much opposi-
tion to his progress offered by the va
rious wandering tribes. Much Of the
most serious trouble was caused by
the Touaregs, strange band of peo-
pie supposed by some to have de-
scended from the crusaders. These
dwellers Of the desert are distinguish
ed by the wearing Of wells, a custom
which has caused much discussion.
Says Felix Dubois in '"Timbuktu the
Mysterious"
AS you travel an atmosphere of Sc
crecy hovers over the country, and
you remember that these mysterious
Touaregs are still momentarily its op-
pressors and masters.
These people keep their eyes from
the excessive glow of the desert by
two wells, one rolled around the tenn
Piles and falling down in front, the
other reaching from the nostrils to
the edge Of the clothing, covering the
lower part of the face. Savants seek
all manner of farfetched origins TO
explain this custom. Hygiene Is OBJ
viously the only motive. This is prov
ed by their own statements and by the
sobriquet, mouths for flies," which
they give to all who do not wear the
wells.
These wells are never removed even
at meal times. They are 80 much
part Of their wearers that any one de-
prived of such covering is unrecogniz-
ed by his friends and relatives. If a
number of the tribe should be killed
in battle, no one could identify them
if they had not on their wells.
Theft is the Touareg's natural form
Of industry. "This word" says ma
tive proverb, "is like water fallen upon
sand, never to be found again." The
Sudanese term them as thieves, hy-
enas and abandoned of God" Yet to
this strange tribe Timbuktu owes its
origin.

GUGLlElMO MARCONl.
Creator of Wireless TeIesraphy Had
Money, But Worked Hard.

The career of Guglielmo Marconi,
the young creator of wireless teleg-
raphy, is sorely lacking in the up
from poverty element, but he always
showed himself to be an indomitable
worker. While other young men, with
plenty of money to spend, were idling
their days and nights away in clubs
and theaters, he was making curious
experiments with chemistry and cleo
tricity.
His father was a wealthy italian,
with a large estate at Griffore, near
Bologna, and the question of funds
was never really a question at ALL 9th
erwise, indeed, wireless telegraphy
might still be thing of the future.
For had I been poor" Marconi
once confessed, 81 don't believe l
should have invented. Or, If I had
invented, I'm not at all sure I should
have stuck to it. In any case, should
never have starved for wireless teleg-
raphy I have too good a digestion"
The Chevalier Marconi was born at
on the 25th of April, 1874.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1909-11-12

He spent most Of his early childhood
upon his fathers estate; but his moth
er, who was an Irishwoman, taught
him English so we'll that, but for the
pronunciation Of an occasional word,
no one would imagine him to be any
thing but a native of England.
At the age Of five he was sent to a
private school in Bedford, where he
remained for a year, subsequently fin
ishing his education at Leghorn and
Bologna university.
Even in his boyhood he dreamed Of
fame, and though at that time he was
not particularly clear as to how he
proposed to win it, electricity had cast
its fascination over him before he was
six.
Chemistry, physics, and scientific
matters in general appealed strongly
to him from the very first; but in ev-
cry other direction he neglected his
studies as far as he possibly could,
and frequently suggested to his mas
ters that he should be allowed to de-
vote himself instead to the subject
which really interested him.
After graduating from Bologna uni
versity he made numerous expert
ments in chemistry and electricity;
but none of them proved to be Of any
particular value, and he had practi-
cally made up his mind to abandon
science and enter the Italian navy,
when, in 1888, Professor Hertz discov-
cred his famous "Hertzian waves"
He demonstrated that disruptive
electrical discharge caused electro
magnetic waves to radiate through
the ether, travelling with the speed Of
light, and young Marconi promptly
conceived the possibility Of applying
these waves" to telegraphy, and so
dispensing with wires.
Once entertained, the idea occupied
his thoughts to the exclusion of every
thing else, and it was not long before
he had erected poles in the grounds of
the paternal home, and launched into
experimental work on an extensive
scale. The world is familiar with
what soon followed.

Halloween" said Senator Bacon Of
Georgia, always recalls to me an ex-
cursion I made one autumn in the
Tennessee mountains.
"At sunset, famishing, came to a
farmhouse, and the old farmer-for
there were no inns in the neighbor-
hood-agreed to put me up for the
night. But he couldn't give me any
supper, he said, till 9 o'clock; for they
were having a Halloween party, and
supper would be served late.
Hungry as was, had to wait At
last, 9 o'clock arrived, and some two
score Of US sat down to a table fam
tastically decorated with pumpkin
jack-o' Lanterns and other Halloween
emblems. In front OF me was su-
perb cake-five tall layers, iced with
a white icing. A superb cake.
1.-The supper was fine one, with all
the delicacies Of Tennessee, but they
didn't get round to me with the sub
stantials, and to stay my appetite l
took a piece Of cake. I noticed as 1
did so that the old farmer at the head
of the table looked at me rather hard,
but he said nothing.
'T waited awhile, and took small
piece more. The old farmer fidgeted.
Still the mattresses neglected me, and
I reached out toward the cake third
time.
TT was more than the old man
could stand.
