SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY.

It has been slowly brought to our understanding that the world is not the same to all creatures. and prob ably no experiments have tended more to make this clear than the recent ones by Prof. Karl Hesz of Nuerz- hurg on the color sense of chickens. pigeons. owls and kestrels. Men with hungry chickens and pigeons were first kept an hour in a bright room to become accustomed to the light. The floor was then spread with a smooth black cloth evenly covered with grains of wheat. strong spec trum was thrown on it from the ceil- ing and the hungry animals were turned loose They picked the wheat first from the bright red. then the ultra red, next the yellow. and finally the green. They touched nothing m the blue and violet because they saw nothing, but. on the other hand, they saw the grains in the ultra-red that were invisible to the men. This proved that for chickens and pigeons the spectrum is shortened at the violet end of short wave-length and extended at the red end of long wave length. This is the effect one might expect from wearing orange-colored glasses, and Hesz demonstrated that fowls see through such spectacles in the form of yellow and orange oil globules imbedded in the light-sensi- tive iris. To kestrels and buZzards the brightest zone was the green in stead of red. the blue being visible To owls the colors were as men see them.

Making liberal allow ance for evaporation and infiltration, a square mile grove of the trees would supply fer distribution about 1O0.0 gallons of water daily.
 The crumbling of building stones is another form of decay that we are to attribute to the action of microscopic organisms. At a recent museum con- ference at York. England. pr. T. An derson showed that stone decay is not due to wind action, and expressed the belief that it is not surface action at all, but a kind of rot produced by some low form of life like the moulds and fungi that rot wood, canvas and other vegetable materials Treatment based on abrasion or chemical the ories having failed. he sought cure of the stones by the use of various gcrmicides. The result has been as anticipated. and in the two years since the experiments began the stones that have best resisted decay have been those that have been treat ed with sulphate of copper. bichloride of mercury and creosote. For a test of this kind. however. the time is too short to justify any definite conclu- sion.

STATE FAIR OF 1871
OPENED TO PUBLIC
EXHIBITS ARE MORE NUMEROUS
AND DIVERSIFIED THAN EVER
OFFERED eFFORE.
TO BE GREATEST YET HELD
Secretary Rowlands Confident That
Exhibit on VIII Surpass Any of
Previous Years-Hotei Men Pre-
dict Record Crowds.

Milwaukee, = When the gates
opened to admit the public to the
1911 Wisconsin state fair, every
thing was in place for the great
show.
Two thousand, exhibitors, their as
sistants and workmen spent all of
the previous day getting things ready
for the opening. An army Of eX-
perts, artisans and directors put the
finishing touches ON one of the great
est displays of Wisconsin products
that has even been shown.
Previously it has been the custom
to open the fair on Monday, but the
plan this year called for opening on
Tuesday SO that the exhibition would
be complete before the public was
admitted to the park.
Hotel men of Milwaukee say that
they have never had as great de-
mand for rooms during state fair
week as they have this year.
Secretary Rowlands is very enthu-
siastic over the prospects for one Of
the greatest fairs that has ever been
held in the state.
From present indications [ be-
lieve that this is going to be the
greatest state fair that Wisconsin has
ever held said Mr.. Rowlands. ''Ev-
erything points to success. There
are more exhibitors; there are more
race horses and there is more of
everything than has ever been shown
at previous state fair. l am sure
that the people of the state will say
that we have given them a show that
will place Wisconsin in the front
ranks of the states Of the middle

HAIL DOES GREAT DAMAGE
Storm in Trempeleau and Vernon
Counties Disastrous to Crops
and Buildings.

Trempealeau. - The most terrific
hail storm ever known here did an
immense amount of damage to crops
and property. The north and west
sides of every building in town had
from five to twenty window glasses
shattered, the high school building
alone having fifty-five panes broken,
creating panic among the pupils.
Actual measurements of some of
the hail stones showed them to be
IA inches around and five picked up
at random weighed six pounds. The
damage done the city will exceed
$4,000 and in the surrounding coun-
try it is beyond computation, reach
ing up to many thousands. Corn,
barley and fruit trees suffered heav-
lily. Thousands of trees were fairly
stripped of their limbs, while much
poultry and small stock were killed
The storm did much damage in
Vernon county, making worthless the
standing tobacco crop. About four
fifths of the acreage of that county
has already been harvested, but the
loss to growers will be from $50, 900
to $4,000.

INDUSTRIAL SHOW SUCCESS
Exhibit of Wisconsin, Made Products
Closes at Observation-Disclosures
ance Over 10000.

Milwaukee. - The exposition Of
Wisconsin-made products at the Audi
torium, which for ten days attracted
record-breaking crowds, has closed.
Secretary Bruce of the Merchants and
Manufacturers assc citation estimated
that fully $1,000 people have seen
the show during that time.
1t is not likely that there will be
another show next year, although the
officials of the association were great
ly pleased, as were the exhibitors. 1t
is probable, however, that show will
be given two years from now, and
that it will become biennial affair.
The Wisconsin Manufacturers as
ISOLATION will hold a meeting shortly
to consider the feasibility of giving
an exposition of state manufactures
next year. President Thomas M.
Blackstock of Sheboygan saw this
show several times and was enthu-
siastically in favor of state expo
sition, and other officers of the state
association also favored it.

END OF ADVENTUROUS LIFE
Clarence Key, Confederate Veteran
Had an Unusually Active, Inter
esting Career.

After a life which brought him in
touch with the uttermost parts of the
earth, coming in contact for many
years with some of the most astute
displomats of the old and new world.
Clarence Key. grandson of Francis
Scott Key, author of "The Star-Span-
gled Banner" died at the Confederate
Soldiers Home, Pikesville, recently
after lingering illness, says the Bal
timore Sun.
He had lived at the home since
1909. having been in poor health all
that time, although 1t was expected
that he would live several years long
er.
Born in Maryland seventy-fve years
ago, Mr.. Key was a son of John r.
Key. He went to Cuba when young,
and at the outbreak of the civil war
made several attempts to get back to
this country, finally succeeding in
landing in Mexico, when he at once
crossed the border into Texas and en-
listed in the I'd Texas cavalry under
the confederate flag.
Later he joined the 26th Texas cav
airy, his total service extending over
four years. The battles in which he
participated were all fought in the
southwest and he often regretted the
fact that he was unable to participate
in the fighting in Virginia, where his
comrades from Maryland showed
such conspicuous bravery.
After the war Mr.. Key, protting by
his knowledge of Spanish gained in
Cuba, went to Mexico City, where he
became official interpreter for the
American embassy He was SO prof.
cient that his services were sought by
Sir Chentung LANG Ching, Chinese
minister to the United States and
MEXICO, jointly, for many years. Mr..
Key accepted place in the embassy
in Mexico City, taking the title of for
eign secretary, a position which he
filled with much credit until two years
ago, when he was obliged to resign on
account Of failing health.

Nothing for Nothing.

English novelist. apropos of the many
banquets given in his honor, said in
Boston:

ungallant as Rossini.

marquise, desired to meet the great
composer. To her emissary Rossini
said:

lady brings me very fine bunch Of
asparagus. she can take view Of me

PRISON TWiNE PLANT WAITS
Early Operation Not Planned by the
State Board of Control. Says
President Graebner.

Madison.-Wisconsi priSOn-made
binder Irvine is not product Of the
immediate future. When the wheels
of the deliberately equipped Waupun
plant will begin to turn is a ques-
ton clothed in Indebtedness of the
deepest kind. This is the situation
as gathered from interviews with
President w. H. Graebner of the
state board OF control.
President Graebner said about
three-fourths of the necessary ma
chinery is in place, and that the
board does not propose at present to
purchase the rest. So many other
important matters are pressing for
early attention, he said, that the bin
der Irvine proposition may well wait.
He would not concede that the plant
would be in operation this year.
The last legislature appropriated
$4,000 for completing the equip
ment of the plant, and 100000,
available January l, 1912, and $780,
600 more available January /, 1913,
for use as a revolving fund in the
operation of the binder twine fac
tory. The latter fund is to be used
by the board Of control to purchase
raw material and for carrying, hand
ling and marketing the manufactured
product. The money coming from the
sale of the Irvine is to be turned
into the state treasury to the credit
of the revolving fund. Whenever
this fund shall exceed 100000, the
excess will be transferred to the
states general fund.
