Do forests influence rainfall? The
question has been answered both
ways, but there are no reliable statis-

series Of investigations to supply the
data needed. A very complete study

His Golf Girl

Richard Coniston was In love with
a picture. He who had travelled
thrice around the world and seen the
famous beauties of many lands was
frresistibly attracted by a wholesome
American girl outlined on a calendar
The picture was evidently from a
photograph. The girl stood In the
foreground. slenderly graceful and
vigorous, smile on her winsome
face. She was poised in the act Of
swinging golf club on little white
ball. In the background was a fine
old gentleman with snowy side
whiskers, two or three caddies and
some lookers-on.
Coniston. young and rich, had set

months Of staring at The Golf Girl"

restlessness. He felt that at least he
must see her.

the name of publishing house 10

The drying of seeds affects their

Much OF the poor blue grass seed
has been made poor by being too
quickly put in large receptacles where

Even when piled in the field after
1t has been taken from the blue grass
tops it has been known to heat suf-
flciently to spoil it.
1t Is unfortunate that when a man
has lot Of blue grass seed that has
been so spoiled that he cannot resist
the temptation to sell It for good seed.
Many other seeds are injuriously az
fected by too great moisture content,
but few so much as the blue grass
seed. The higher the starch content
of the seed the more necessary does II
appear to be to keep It from damp
