The styles are medium in all things.
Crowns are moderately high, brims

The smart-looking turbans are most

C.B.MERCHANT
The Merchant Monument.

had revoved in the horizontal This
led to further controversy until many
men of science met to study the
unique problem.
Many theories were advanced as to
the cause of the movement of the ball.
Finally many biologists of note and
recognized authority evolved a theory
which is generally accepted as true.
That is:
The constant moving of the ball
that is acceded-is due to the I'M
equal expansion of different parts of
the spheres surface. As a sphere its
surface is presented to the four winds
Of heaven. and the portion of 1t to the
rays of the sun would become more
highly heated than the part of the
surface exposed to the north and its
cold winds. Also the surface of the
whole would be more apt to become
more heated during the day than
would the base upon which It rests.
as the latter is larger and heavier
than the ball itself.
Now If one part of the ball EXPANDS
minute quantity more than the 9th
er with each heating OF one side. and
contracts in the same ratio on cooling
there would tend to result slight
creeping movement which in time
would move the ball sufficiently to let
the change in its position be noted by
the naked eye Naturally the expan-
sion of one side of the ball would
make that side heavier than the chill
ed side, and the heated side would
work It's way toward the bottom.
The case is considered one of the
most remarkable ON record and has
furnished science with new idea
concerning the expansion and con-
traction Of solids. The conclusions of
American scientists who examined
the ball were submitted to scientists
of Europe All agree that the action
Of heat and cold of the four seasons
cause the ball to change its position
a minute particle every day.

QUEER MOVING BALL
Remarkable Phenomenon in a
Marion, Ohio, Cemetery.
Great Granite Sphere Actually Turns,
and Furnishes Scientists With q
New Subject for Their vari-
GUS Theories.

Marion, DIN the last few years
the attention of scientists, and of the
public in general. has been attracted
to remarkable phenomenon discov-
cred In connection with the monu-
ment to the memory of C. B. Mer-
chant, in. the Marion cemetery.
The monument consists of stone
base. rough in lnish, upon which is
mounted polished granite ball. The
ball is 36 inches in diameter and
weighs 1900 pounds.
When the ball was placed in posi-
ton in 1896 the monument builder
left but one spot of 1t rough. This
was the segment of contact with the
stone pedestal. or that part Of the ball
which rested on the supporting stone.
So thoroughly was the rest Of the ball
polished that its surface is like mir
ror. 1t reflects perfectly the trees and
shrubbery which surround It.
In 1900, four years after the monu-
ment was erected. visitor to the
cemetery discovered that the granite
sphere had shifted its position. In
vestigation proved that the rough spot
was no longer in contact with the ped
estal. Repeated efforts on the part
OF cemetery employees failed to re-
turn the ball to its former position.
Those who attempted the task real
lied that the ball had not been turned
by human hands. At first Its move
ment was ascribed to the motion of
earth. This was the commonly ac-
cepted theory until newspaper reports
called the attention of scientists to
the phenomenon.
Men OF science from the Ohio uni
versities made special trips to Marion
to study the problem. AS the story
OF the ball was spread scientific men
from universities, further away came
to study the ball.
When the first professor of physics
looked at the sphere the rough spot
on the ball was about half way up
toward its top as 1t rested on the
pedestal He took photograph of
the ball in that position. the rough
spot designating that the ball was
moving in the vertical circle.
The next scientist who took a pic
ture of the ball showed 1t in differ
ent position. The ball had turned in
part in the vertical circle and then

r HREE OF the prettiest shapes
! among the new hats for spring are
shown here. One might choose with
the eyes shut and be sure of pos
sessing grace, style and real beauty
IN any of these. They fit we'll and are
only moderately large.
Hemp and milan appear to lead in
the point of popularity. but there are
innumerable lovely models in other
braids as well-hair braid. pyroxylin,
chip, leghorn, tuscan, in fact every
braid. including the rough Japs, finds
a following. and there is no lack of
variety in size or shape.
The hair braids and hemps are
greatly favored for dress hats to be
trimmed with French plumes and lace
or ribbon-or both. Milans and hemps
are liked for big masses OF flowers.
Many of these trimmed with big
punches of lilacs are blooming in tri-
umph at Palm Beach Just now.
A great many shapes are shown
with borders (called "fanges") of vel
vet, and some are faced with velvet.
Small shapes with upturned brims
nearly always are improved by vel
vet facing on the brim or coronet.
The velvet fiange Is an undoubted ad-
vantage. adding finish and distinction

of perfect workmanship.

OF POUL TRY

During the past few years thous-

business. Hundreds have made a
failure of it. The person who goes
into the poultry business must pre-
pare himself beforehand and he
must so SLOW"
There is money in the poultry
business in Arkansas Few OF us
stop to figure up this item in our
annual income. Yet the income
per person was something like
$1,000 last year Counting five
persons to the family, each family
received during the last year an
income of something like $4,000 in
the value of the poultry produced
on the farm. All or part Of this
value may have been consumed on
the farm.
Some people consider it an in
suit for one to insinuate that they
do not know how to raise chickens
Yet the number who fail to be sue
cessful poultry raiSers Is greater
than the number who succeed
Among the chief causes OF failure
are: Errors in feeding and in buy

same judgment in feeding their
poultry that they use In feeding
their dairy cows more satisfactory
results would be secured. Other
causes of failure are: Errors In
choosing Il breed suitable for a par
ticular purpose, errors In caring Tor
and housing fowls, and faulty loea-
tions.
We have had education along
different lines emphasized, but few
of us have thought 1t necessary to
study poultry before attempting to
raise them. Recently plans for the
organization of school poultry clubs
were formulated, No one for an
