The Wheel Problem.

Which, at any given moment, is NOV
ng forward faster-the top of coach
wheel or the bottom;
The answer to this question seems
simple enough, but probably nine per-
sons out of ten. asked at random,
would give the wrong reply. 1t would
appear at first sight that the top and
bottom must be moving at the same
rate-that is, the speed Of the carriage.
But by little thought it will be dis
covered that the bottom of the wheel
is in fact. by the direction of its mo
tiou around its axis, moving backward,
in an opposite direction to that which
the carriage is advancing and is con
sequently stationary in space. while
the point on top of the wheel is NOV
ing forward with the double velocity
Of its own motion around the axis and
the speed at which the carriage moves.

Money In Rats.

The only good rats are dead rats.
Alive, the rat carries disease Dead,
1t may have a commercial value. The
skin is fine material for book covers
and for making purses and photo
graph frames. 1t may also be used
in the manufacture of gloves for wO-
men. and in several of the great cities
the rat killing industry is assuming
proportions The rat in Scandinavia,
as well as the species known as the
Norwegian, a big, bothersOme rodent
because of its fighting procivities, is
particularly valuable for the purposes
named. The bodies can be converted
into fertilizing material. Thus in
many commercial centers abroad is
the rat being killed by the many
thousands. not because II is a menace
TO public safety, but because uses
have been found for the heretofore
worthless hide The time may come
when the rat will be hunted assidu-
ously In this country, not only be-
cause of the money that's in it. but
because it is our enemy.-Indianapo-

WILD GEESE.
They Never Feed Without Throwing
Out Scouts or Sentries.

They Never Feed Without Throwing
Out Scouts or Sentries.
Some of the common sayings con-
rerning birds are stupidity wrong
You stupid goose." is an expression
constantly heard. yet the goose. wheth-
err wild or tame, is most sagacious.
Wild geese for instance. never feed
without throwing ont scouts or sen
tries. j. G Millais describes how he
saw flock Of geese feeding with SEN
tries out and how after u time one of
the sentries went up to bird that
was feeding and gave it a gentle peck
on the back The latter thereupOn left
its grazing and went off to take up
guard. while the sentry took it's turn
to feed.
Gentle as a dove" is such com
mon proverb that the dove has become
the emblem of peace. Quite mis-
take, for all the dove and pigeon tribe
are great fighters. and in the breeding
season the cock birds indulge in bat
ties royal.
The foolish prejudice against all
birds of prey includes that pretty little
hawk the kestrel. Now. if the kestrel
were known as the mouse falcon it is
possible that keepers would not in
variably shoot it on sight. The kestrel
lives mainly on mice and wlreworms.
1t is quite innocent of killing par
tridges.
In game preserving district in
southern Scotland kestrels were prac-
tically exterminated few years ago.
What was the result? Over tract of
country of l.20O square miles field mice
increased in such myriads that the
grazing was absolutely ruined. One
sheep farmer lost $1,000 in one year
