Insects and plants utilize this fact
In many Interesting ways. Some
water plants whose leaves doat on
the water have q very simple con-
triSance to keep the upper surfaces Of
the leaves dry. This consists OF a
great number Of minute hairs covering
the tops Of the leaves. Water cannot
penetrate among these hairs even
when the leaves are forced down b.

The little RATS Of eggs that gnats

have their points all upward. and they
are glued together SO closely that.

HOW DUTCH FARMERS LIVE
Cattle Invariably Are Housed Undsr
the Same Roof 10 the
Family.

The typical Duitchs farmhouse lis
square. one-storied, with a pyramid
shaped roof. The space between the
apex of the roof and the ceiling Of the
dwelling part is generally used as a
storehouse for winter food for the cat
tie. The living room door opens into
tho stable, for the cattle are invart-
ably houses under the same roof as
the family. y. The homes vary little In
their furnishings. One always sees
bright strips OF carpet. . highly pol
.shed center table," where the family
Bible is displayed. and glass dress
81, with its shelves Allied with rare old
brass and Delft ware. The most curl
ous thing about the houses is the
sleeping quarters-unique and certain
ty unhealthy from the modern view
point, which requires plenty OF fresh
air in the bedrooms.
The cheesenaker's family sleeps In
beds built in cupboard-like recesses In
the wall and as far from the window
40 possible. There is door similar
to that Of cupboard. and this is kept
closed during the day, In order that
the bed may be hidden from view. The
stuffy condition Of this walled-in bed
room can be readily imagined. The
linen Is always snowy white, and the
whole makeup presents An attractive
appearance, even to the decorated
strap suspended from the ceili1g and
used to assist the occupant Of the
couch to arise. The visitor is always
welcome at the cheese farms, but the
visit must be made early p the morn
ing II the cheesemaking is to be seen.

Is a Tenth district man, and his record

have been very wholesome"
These explanations are all right as
far as they go, but after all they can
not be very satisfying to devoted sup
porters CT the primary principle. The
awkward question remains to be an
swered. Why should the intelligent,
progressive voters of Marshall and
Greene counties be tricked into voting
for the wrong man because his name
happened to appear first on the bal
lot? Was it because the voters had
no easy opportunity to enlighten them
selves? Neither the Times Republican
nor the Bee will claim that this Is
the explanation. The Marshalltown
Times Republican is the best news
paper in the state published in a
town o. it's size and one Of the
best in the country The Jefferson Bee
is one Of the best county week
lies in the state. Probably there
are few republicans in Marshall county
who do not read the T.-R.. or in
Greene county who do not read the
Bee. These newspapers had done their
part to post the voters as to the
merits of the various candidates. and
the affiliations of the candidates. If
the voters had only taken the trouble
to read their home newspapers they
need rot have found themselves voting
haphazard on state Offices and mark
ing the little cross in front of the
names of the candidates coming first
into the line Of vision. The conclusion
is inevitable that the voters not only
aid not look up the DOPE but that,
aware Of their ignorance. they were
not sufficiently interested to go to
the small trouble required to enlight-
en- it.
The admission of lack of interest
IN the part Of the voters contradicts
most OF the arguments made in behalf
of so-called popular rule thru the pri-
mary. The Times Republican,. admit
ting that the primary experiment has
gone far enough to indicate this lack
OF interest is likely to he permanent,
proposes to remedy the matter by re-
ducing the number of offices for which
the people are asked to make nomi-
nations and letting the officers whom
they do select appoint all the minor Of
ficers. But that would be getting away
from popular rule again, perhaps even
more so than if the convention system
of nominating were restored And
would the people come out and vote
for the candidates on the short ballot?
Over half of them have been staying
