YOU CAN THROW HALF YOUR
LAND AWAY

Did you ever realize Mr.. Farmer,
that you could throw half your land
away and then by careful tillage,
scientific management, and diversi-
fed farming methods, you could make
better living off the remaining half
than you do now. This is not an
idle statement intended to startle and
amuse. It is made because it has
been proven in so many instances
that it's truth is recognized by men of
cool. deliberate thought. Where you
now raise Ii to Is bushels Of wheat,
you could readily raise from 80 bu..
shells to 40 bushels, and other gains
in proportion. It has been repeated
~ demonstrated that the corn yield
can be trebled by seed selection and
cultivation. Potato land carefully
cultivated il small plots Wit yield
from 400 bushels an acre up, why be
content with half that yield? The
corn fodder goes to waste because
there is no silo and no dairy cows by
which it can be turned into money.
The farmer buys his meat when he
could raise it and never know the diff
|. ference. In a hundred and one ways
the truth of the statement is appar-
ent. But it isn't necessary to throw
away half your land. Why not plan
more intensified farming on the larg-
er area, or sell half your farm. It
will be well worth while.

THE SMALLEST ELECTRIC FARM
PLANT RUN By WIND
Wisconsin Farmer has Twenty-four
Lamp Fiant Who Is op rated
by the Farm Windmill

Wisconsin Farmer has Twenty-four
Lamp rIant Who Is Op rated
by the Farm Windmill
What is probably the smallest farm
lighting plant in the country has been
installed on the farm of dairyman
near Poynette, Wisconsin. This tiny
plant supplies current for twenty-four
lamps and is operated entirely by the
farm windmill at total of few
cents a year for lubricating Oil.
The farm consists of about hun.
dred acres and is devoted to stock
raising and dairying. The power
windmill is twelve feet ia diameter
with vertical shaft extending down
the tower; attached to- it are the pow
er pulleys, etc. In addition to driving
the electric dynamo this mill is used
to operate a drill press, grindstone,
corn shelter, small saw, washing ma
chine, grain elevator and feed grind
er The dynamo has capacity of
six amperes at thirty-tive volts, or
0.21 hilowatts when driven at full
speed of $50 revolutions minute.
The variations in speed, due to irreg-
ularities in the wind, are overcome by
small automatic switch placed in the
circuit between the generator and the
storage batteries which prevents any
accidents to the apparatus by break
ing" the circuit when a certain range
Of speed has been passed.
This tiny plant eliminates the
home, the yards and the barn Guild
ings. All the lamps receive their cur
rent from the storage battery, the
charging of which is the dynamo's on
" function. The entire plant, inclu-
ding windmill, generator, battery, wir-
ing, lamps, ETC., could be duplicated
for not more than $3.50.

CHAPTER XXI.

While his crew was whipping the
dory's headwarp round a deck-cleat,
Coast stood in the cockpit Of the
Echo. frowning thoughtfully at the
blurred loom Of land to starboard,
whose shadow seemed to fall cold
upon his soul with a sinister presage
of suffering and disaster. For there

mystery, terror. death; . and
there he himself must be. for her
sake.
Out OF the horror and turmoil Of
the last half-hour he emerged with
conviction and understanding. She
must not be left alone in that place
OF nameless perils. Such doubts as

he had previously entertained no
longer found footing in his thoughts:
it was settled now: he would stay.
In the emotional stress of his I'm.
foreseen encounter with the woman
temporarily he had forgotten the VIC
tim OF the bowstring. But now. bas-
ing his conclusions on what she had
told him of the personnel Of the is
land, he saw without doubt that the
man could have been no other than
that Mr.. Power she had named as
Blackstock's assistant Power was
an Irish name: Coast had catalogued
the man as Of Irish extraction. al
If the motive for the assassination
remained dark, that Blackstock was
privy to it. If not the prime instiga-
tor of the crime. was as patent as
daylight.
Coast knew in his heart that he
was fated never to leave No Mans
Land while the woman be loved re-
manned there with the man he feared.
despised and hated.
Mr.. Appleyard. having made fast
the dory. sat himself down, filled and
lighted his pipe. and for several mo-
ments regarded Coast with a look at
once contemplative, penetrating and
sympathetic. Then he chose to divert
his employer with an enigmatic obser-
walton.
SILLY of you," he remarked coolly.
Coast came out of his abstraction
with a start. Whats that?" he de-
manded sharply.

Relic Found In Boo.

Whilst engaged in cutting a bank OF
turf recently at Carrakilkeen, Curry
county, Sligo, a caretaker named James
Cardell made a remarkable discovery
when he found a curious old tub in the
bog. The tub is very large. The most
remarkable thing about it is that it is
all in one piece of timber, apparently
the trunk of a large tree, which was
carved and followed out with the ut
most care and gracefulness. 1t is in a
good state of preservation, although
undoubtedly it must have been in the
bog for more than a thousand years, as
the spot where it was found is the re-
mains of what was once a very deep
bog, now nearly cut away.

Witnessing Effects Of Anger on
Bike and Boy.

A fat man was complacently pursu-
ing his way through a cross street.
He carried an open umbrella and oc.
casionally wiped his moist face on a
large silk handkerchief.
Suddenly around the r came a
small boy on a bicycle. He turned so
quickly that the fat man had no time
to get out of the way. Nor had the
boy any chance to sheer away from
his bulky obstacle.
The front wheel struck the fat man
a glancing blow. shaking his dignity
and s%craping his leg.
As for the boy, he and the bicycle
went down with a crash. But the lad
was up again in a moment and rails
ing the bicycle bent over it solicit
tously.
The fat man was mad. He was so
mad that he sputtered incoherently,
and then with a vicious swing of one
of his tan shoes kicked a spoke out
of the offending wheel.

JEFFERSON'S BONES.

He Priced Thorn Highly Until Or. Wis
tar Saw Them.
1t is said that when Thomas Jeffer-
son journeyed from Monticello to Phil
adelphia on his way to take the oath
of Office as vice president he carried a
lot Of bones in his baggage. The bones,
alleged to be those of a mammoth.
had been found in Greenbrier county,
Va, and sent to Monticello. where
they were set up by Jefferson. who.
it appears. entertained a somewhat ex-
aggerated notion Of his attainments in
natural history and who stood sponsor
for the bones as those of "a carnivo-
rous clawed animal entirely unknown
to science"
1t was not until after jefferson
reached Philadelphia that he was I'M
deceived, for at a glance the learned
Or. Wistar saw that they were the
bones Of the common sloth. several
specimens Of which he showed the
Virginian. Jefferson. it is related, was
greatly chagrined. especially as his dis
covery became known as Megalonyx
jeffersonii
1t has been pointed out that indi-
rectly no less a naturalist than the
great Button may have been RESPONSE
BILE for Jefferson's error. 1t was the
Virginian's practice to send Button
specimens and information, and with
the subtle flattery of a courtier the
French naturalist wrote:
II should have consulted you, sir.
before publishing my natural history,
and then l should have been sure Of
the facts."-New York Sun.
