ton of j. F. Hammett and A. A.
Whissen, prohibitionists, for an in

With only $4,000 subscribed to-
ward fund of $4,000 for Central
College on the afternoon of the day
set to close the campaign, the leaders
in the movement admitted this after
noon that they are greatly discourage
ed and that there is a possibility of
the campaign being dropped. No pub
lie meeting will be held tonight, but
the campaigners will hold confer
ence and thoroughly canvass the sit
uation, after which a decision will be
reached as to whether efforts to raise
sthe fund will be continued.
1.-THE raising of this sum means
more to Conway than any similar
amount has ever meant to it before"
said one of the solicitors today. at
means that the Indebtedness of $780,
900 can be floated in such manner
as to be liquidated within the next
subscriptions; that $4,000 con-
servtory building will be erected by
the Baptists of the state on the Cen
trail campus; that at least 40 more
boarding students, who will spend an
additional $4,000 to $4,000 each
year, will be brought to Conway !;
that all question of the removal of
the college will be forever settled,
and that Central will at once enter
upon an unparalleled era of growth
and prosperity"
1t is stated, however, that while
the solicitors are receiving every en-
enlargement and many are giving to
the utmost of their ability, the pros
poets of raising the full amount ne
cessary are not so bright, and the
fear is expressed that the campaign
will have to be dropped.

LIFE OF CHINESE STUDENTS

The life OF the Chinese college stu
lent Is different in many ways from

life Is not wholesome, for he sleeps in

and he does not eat very wholesome
food.
Exercise is not given the attention

The intercollegiate sports include a

their cost Of maintenance and raise
colts worth $1,000.
The economy Of the heavy mare on
the farm, both from the standpoint OF
doing farm work and producing colts
compared with light and medium
weight mares is nicely summed up as
follows by Secretary Dinsmore Of the
Percheron Society Of America: "The
cost of maintenance under farm con.
ditions is about the same, the heavier
mares are more efficient In the work
of the farm, the colts are ready for
work year younger, and IL carried
to the same age, will bring about
twice as much as the colts from the
| light weight mares and about one.
third or one-quarter more than the
colts from the medium weight mares"
This summary was drawn up after
some careful thinking, upon the ques.
tion being put to the secretary by an
extensive land owner looking forward
to the purchase and breeding OF
horses, what kind of mares should
/ use? I want to know all things con.
sidered, whether should buy 1900
pound. 1,400 pound or 1,7O0 pound
mare?" In other words, the land
owner as a business man wanted to
know whtat would be the relative cost
Of maintenance, what the relative eff.
cheney on the farm and what the rela
tive market value Of the colts pro
duced, of these three classes of mares
Here is how he thinks out the mat
ter, and his thinking was based on ex
tended observation and experiences:
All three classes can, of course, be
managed, as far as maintenance cost
is concerned, at about the same gen
eral figures. But in respect to working
efficiency, If We rate the 1,700 pound
horse at 100 per cent, liberal allow
ance Is made If the 1,450 pound horse
is credited at 80 per cent, and the
1900 pound horse at 80 per cent. The
colts bred to a good draft sire will
average somewhere about 1.500
pounds; colts from 1,450 pound mares
1000 to 100 pounds, and colts from
1,7OO pound mares, 1900 to 1000
pounds. Then, too, the lighter weight
colts necessarily make their full
weight only at maturity and they will
not be fit to sell until they are four
and one-half or five years of age. The
same Is true of the medium weight
colts, but buyers are securing the
country for heavy colts. Every good
gelding is gathered up at three years
of age. The heavier colts sell earlier,
or If carried until they are older and
then put on the market, the prices ad.
vance accordingly. Colts weighing
around 1900 pounds will not bring
more than $140 to SITS on the average,
because they come in competition
with the great glut of common
light drafters on the market. Those
weighing around 1850 pounds to 1,700I
pounds will bring 5000 to s24O, and
heavy weight geldings will bring $500
to $3.50. The heavy mares therefore
produce colts that bring from one
third to twice as much money as the
lower weight mares.

SKELETON OF GIANT
REMAINS OF A BIG INDIAN FOUND
IN CALIFORNIA.
seven Feet Four inches Was the
Height Of Member Of Extinct
Race Whose Bones Were
Dug Up.

San Francisco, Gallup to about
100 years ago a giant race of Indians
Inhabited the coast region of Califor-
Tia. Remains of these have been dis
covered In the islands of the Santa
Barbara channel. To William Alt
mann, assistant curator of the Golden
late Park Memorial museum, belongs
he honr Of discovering one Of the
allest and best preserved skeletons
II this extinct tribe.
Altman utilized his vacation In ex-
awaiting an old Indian burial mound
the nursery of Thomas s. Duane,
'wo miles from Concord, In Contra
Costa county. Phe giant skeleton was
'ound ten feet from the surface, and
lround 1t were large number Of NOR
ars and pestles, charm stones and
,bsidian arrow heads.
The skeleton has not yet been
mounted, but the bones were assem-
,led on table In the curator's Of
ice and placed on private exhibition.
The bones are in good state Of pres
srvation, being hard and firm. al
.hough brown with age. Two or three
II the vertebra are missing. and the
IlSull is broken into three parts. The
skeleton measures seven feet four
inches. The tibia ia seventeen inch
ss In length.
The skull Is In great contrast with
hat Of the Digger Indian Of the pres
snt day, being of a much more intel
ectual type. The under jaw Is square
Ind massive, being remarkably thick
Ind strong. Either the dead Indian
was of great age or he subslsted on
lard food, as shown by his molars,
which are worn perfectly fiat and
close to the gums.
The find is of the greatest import
.nce to anthropologists the world
,ver, confirming as 1t does, the theory
advanced when the giant skeletons
we're unearthed in the Santa Barbara
stands, that q superior race Of Indi-
ms, physically and mentally, preced-
ID the Digger and other native races
II the present day This Is evidenced
ilso in the pestles and charm stones
'ound near the body.
The former are ornamented with
phallic carvings. whereas the pestles
made by the former and present day
Diggers, are not carved or ornament
I'd In any way. The charm stones are
If baked clay, a beginning in the art
,f pottery making, which are not
.ound with Digger remains.
This interesting find was made on
he Salvador Pacheco ranch, part Of
which is occupied by Duane's nursery.
Il is Altmann's intention to make q
urther exploration of the mound at
IN early date for other relics OF the
Dygone tribe.

Sizes Of sllos.


A silo IL feet in diameter and 81.
feet high will hold when full about
rs tons Of silage. A silo Ia feet In
diameter and 80 feet high will hold
about 1903 tons. Twelve cows require
SO tons of silage to supply them zoe
days at the rate of 80 pounds a day.
A silo 10 feet in diameter and % to
"a feet high would be very good
size for this number of cattle. If 1t ia
desirable to make some preparation
for summer, and as a rule it is, then
the silo should be built still higher. On
reasonably good land yield of 10
tons per acre of green corn may be ex.
pected. On-very rich land as high as
20 tons of green corn are produced.

Mirage Easy to Be Seen.

writer as being a mirage. such as fire.
Quently occurs in various parts Of
the world; "in fact" he says, zone
may see mirage any day by looking
