RUSSIA HOLDS FIRST PLACE
That Country Is Now the Greatest
. Wheat Producer, With United
States Second.

In the last twenty-five years great
changes have taken place in the
worlds production of wheat. In Eu-
rope the land devoted to it has in
creased over one-fourth; in the rest
of the world it has doubled.
In 1870 France was at the head of
the wheat producers, followed by the
United States, India, Russia, Ger
many, etc.
Today Russia holds the first place
the United States is still second,
while France is third. Fourth place
is held by the Argentine Republic,
which has increased its production
ten times Canada and Italy follow.
In amount produced per acre the
smaller countries have their turn.
Holland headed the list in 1879, fol-
lowed by Denmark, England, Nor
way, Belgium, Sweden, France. To-
day the order is Denmark, Holland,
Belgium, England, Germany, Swe-
den, Norway, Canada, France, Ja-
pan.
One encouraging feature Of these
statistics is that the maximum pro-
duction per acre has increased more
than 60 per cent.

ARKANSAS HISTORIC
OLD STATE CAPITOL
FIGHT ON TO PREVENT
SALE
AN ILLUSTRATED ARTICLE
e1ling Of Fight Now On
To Save Building Appears
Elsewhere In This Issue

Our readers will find in this
issue a special illustrated article
regarding the old statehouse,
which is Of unusual interest at
this time. A fight is now being
made to prevent the sale or de-
struction of the historic structure
which is older than the state
itself. The sentiment in favor
Of preserving the old capitol has
been growing steadily and the
movement is being pushed vigor-
ously. The article which is pub
lished this week is timely and
contains some interesting infor-
nation regarding the history OF
the old building and the fight
that is being made to save it.
The old capitol is nearly SO
years old, the work reconstruction
having been started in 1888, three
years before Arkansas was ad-
mitted to the union. This article
tells of some of the eXcitingevents
that have transpired within the
old building during the long years
that it has been the seat Of state
government. It also tells how
it is planned to make the state
house a great museum and ex-
hibit hall, in which the products
of every county in the state will
be displayed.

OPPORTUNITIES.

4 young man has always had to
help make his opportunities, and he
must do that today as ever. But.
young men fail more nowadays than
they used to because they expect to
reap almost as soon as they SOW.
That is the very great trouble with
the young men of the present. They
expect opportunities to come to them
without application or proper shap-
ing of things so that opportunities
will drift their way You have to
keep your eyes open and catch hold
Of things; they'll not catch hold OF

Mysterious Currents, the Secrets Of
Which No One Has Solved.
There are as many vagaries In the
waters as in the winds. Why. for in
stance. should great ocean currents
send their warm waters across the
wide Pacific and Atlantic? Other and
equally mysterious currents exist In
well nigh ali parts Of the world.
It is on record that the sea has run
for weeks out of the Java sea. through
the strait OF Sunda and thence back
again for like period without any
perceptible rise and fall during those
times.
Then there is the equatorial current
that flows into the Caribbean sea. the
ever flowing current to the eastward
around Cape Horn. the cold stream
flowing from the icy regions of the
north past Newfoundland and Nova
Scotia and along the American coast
to the extreme end of Florida. the
continual current running with a ve-
Iocity OF from four to Ave knots an
hour through tue SLHuAt VI oAOi~'eeA~
into the Mediterranean sea. the swift
current running across the rocks and
shoals of the end Of Billion Island.
which apparently starts from nowhere
and ends somewhere in the vicinity OF
the same place. and the current which,
starting halfway up the China sea,
runs from two to three knots an hour
to the northeast and finally ends ab-
ruptly Off the north end Of Luzon.
Then we have those tidal vagaries
known the world over as bores. Those
that run up the Hugh and irawadi
rivers, from side to side. till they reach
their limit. often tearing the ships
from their anchorage. originate nobody
knows where OF why.
At Singapore 1t has been observed
for days at time that there has been

four hours.-Boston Globe.
