the stupendous aggregate are 1904,

More than four thousand million

cupied the government during the
four years from 1861 to 1865, includ-
ing the pay and sustenance of all the
armies. the building and maintenance
of all the fleets, tine transportation
of troops. the recruiting and bounties,

every item of government expendi-
ture on account of that great strug-
gle, except the interest on money
borrowed wherewith to continue
the fight.

Profitable Fun For
A Winter Evening

The Department of Agriculture has
recently issued Farmers Bulletin No.
40S, entitled, "School Exercises In
Plant Production" 1t is intended
mainly for teachers in the rural
school, pointing out to them how,
with very simple materials, such as
tin cans, empty bottles, corks, wood
en- boxes, apparatus can be made by
the pupils themselves by which they
could illustrate the growth of plants,
the movement OF water in the soil,
the relation of plant leaves to air,
moisture, termination, plant propa-
CATION by the various forms of
grating.
1t is worth a good deal for the boy
to pick up the tin cans and bottles
about the house, and use them for
the same purposes for which expen-
sive apparatus is purchased in the
laboratories OF the colleges. 1t has
always seemed to us that the little
girl thought a good deal more of the
doll she made or dressed for herself
than the finer one that is bought for
her. The boy thinks a great deal
more of piece of apparatus he can
make himself than he does of one his
father gave him the money to buy.
We have thought further that the
boy learns more by finding out for
himself than by having 1t pounded
into him from a textbook. Boys
particularly enjoy making things,
and they will be surprised to learn
how they can make a simple appar-
tus cut of waste material that will
show how plants get their food from
the water and the air, and how the
roots grow. Their sisters will he
surprised to learn how they can
graft the plants they are cultivating
in the garden. such as sgeraniums and
verbenas. They viii both be sur
prised to learn how they can graft
the trees I'm the orchard, how they
can change the fruit on tree by
budding. and how easy it is to do.
The next generation of farmers
Will have to Use their eyes and ears
and minds to better purpose than
those of the past have deem Obliged
to do. and we do not know of any
better way of learning how than by
sending for this bulletin, reading it
carefully, and then making the ap-
paratus and proving the things which
IL IL shown can be very easily demon
strated. BY this method the boy
of wisdom, and their father will get
wisdom. more or less, according to
his capacity, and all of them will have
a good time.-Wallace's Farmer.

Peary Discredited by
Congressional Committee

After all the damning OF one man
to have discovered the North Pole,
that elusive but much sought article
still reposes in its undiscovered soil
tude OF ice. The public was quick to
place its seal of condemnation upon
DIR. Cook for his alleged discovery,
following the exposure ofCapt. Peary
who made claim to being the right
ful discoverer OF the pole. Peary has
received all the praise and much of
the honors which an achievement of
the kind would bring, but his work
IS now robbed OF much OF IL credit by
the findings OF employees OF the geo.
detic survey who have computed
from Peary's own observations that
miles OF the pole. This being so, and
there is no reason to diebelieve the
report of the Investigators, Peary
has no claim to having accomplished
the task which has lured so many an
adventurer. He is entitled to great
credit for what he did do, and no
more.
In view OF the disclosures just made
the position Of Peary IL not an envf-
able one. He made claims TO posi-
tive discovery. and I'm view OF his
previous experiences In the exploring
line IT Is surprising that he could not
tell from his own observations thai.
he had not fully reached the goal
which he desired. Congress il just
now debating n proposition to retire
him with the rank of rear admiral
and hnd IL not been due to- this pro-
posal the real facts might not be
made public for two years. Like
Cook. Peury may have been mistaken
and such an explanation us he can
make VIII he received with interest.
The results of the discoveries" of
Cook and Peary VIII be that here
after explorers VIII have to convince
the public beyond doubt that they
have really accomplished what they
claim. Those going to the pole here
after probably will guard against the
mistakes OF the recent explorers. The
safest way seems for every explorer
to take his own pole along, and con-
vince "A suspicious public by planting
it where the invisible pole Is located.
II wouldn't be n bad punishment to
send both Cook and Peary back to
the Icy North and make them stay
there until they found the pole.-Pu-
