THE BASS DRUM.
(By George l'itch.)

The bass drum is an instru-
 mcnt for making condensed
 thunder and is a necessary part of all brass bands. The bass
 drum is larger than the bass horn
 and sticks out more in front, making it more difficult to wear.
 In fact, it is the most difficult piece of wearing apparel in eX- to play the bass drum in three lessons, but it takes him a year to learn how to wear il. Even a man with a meager Knowledge Of music can read the score for he
 bass drum and can insert tn"
 bang into the melody at the ,psN-
 how to do il while pushing he
 said drum down the street beat ing
 up with it against heavy wind, land i!rning a narrow corner with
 an automobile on one sid" and a
 street lamp on the other is a diff
 ferrnt matter. Very few bass
 playing on the key, but hundreds of amat tcurs. who haN" harnrtss"d
 themselves to drum as big as d N''tIllS IT It' ilI' Itt\' | ''l ',''' he solo rurnciiSt from behind with the thing in Ih" middle of a triplr-tnn"ur solo and have re- tirrh from the band by request.
 The bass drum consists of two large leather heads stretched over a cylinder shaped like a napkin ring magnified .000 diane CTS. This produces a large rrverbcr- ating interior and when Inc head of the drum is carrSSeu with a largd- d-heahrd club. the output of sound is imnIenSc. The poorer he rest of Inc band is the harder the bass drummist must work. Often a good bass drummist with. a strong wrist can conceal the rest of the band from the public ear rnlirely--which accounts for [ he comparative safety of so many minstrel bands.
 The bass drum is seldom rall-- /! ed upon to produce solos, yet i those who have never seen a i Highland drummer playing a sc- lection and juggling with his ] drumsticks at the same time, have missed'one of Natures finest little cataclysms. .5

RUSSIA READY TO FIGHT.

Russia is confident of her own strength today and is willing to go to war. Yet it is only four years since Russia bowed to the ultimatum of the German kasier, and withdrew her objections to Austria's annexation of Bosnia Herzegovina. It is only eight years since France yielded be- fore a similar threat on the part of Germany.
 The two allies are on a very different footing and in a very different mood today. France, if not aggressive, is certainly prepared for war, while Russia is ready to try conclusions with Austria in the Balkans. The fact is that Russia has determined to stand by her Slavic kin in the Balkans, even if war results, and France will back her ally, in case the allies of Austria enter the contest.
 This determination after a diplomatic struggle of months. has transpircd within the last fortnight. In this policy the Czar has the support of the whole Rus sian people. Such a war would be deemed holy by all Russians. It would not be thought grand ducal adventure, as was the Ja- panese war. The nation will con

Mr. George u. t1aultN.

If the stories which have been put out from his native city are to be accepted as literal truth, he has solved the problem of bringing down the high cost of living and the cost of high living, and has advanced the cause of the simple life as no other man has ever done.
 It is claimed on his behalf that he has invented an instrument, appropriately styled the "gasto- graph" which automatically re- produces on the palate of the user all of the sensations which fol- low the eating of the most tempt ing yiands or the most appeal ing of beverages. The most lav- ish banquet, from soup to nuts, can be reproduced by the mere turning of the switch to the par ticular dish which one desires to taste.
 It has been brought forward as criticism of this epoch making invention that "there's no nutrilnent in it": that while all of the gustatory pleasures are enjoyed, the wastes of nature are not replaced. That is really one of the most signal advantages. All authorities on diet, all physl- clans, all writers on rconolnlc topics. with the exception of Dr. Woods Hutchinson. have gone on record with the assertion that W" eat too much. We eat too much because we find pleasure in eat ing. and are luath to get up from bountiful table without trying everything spread upon 1t.

CARING FOR YOUNG ALFALFA
Practice OF Pasturing Crop During Fall
and Winter to Save Feed Bill
Is Serious Mistake.

(By o. o. CHURCHILL. Department OF
Agronomy, Oklahoma Agricultural
College.)
Many people, on account of short.
age of pasture and to save feed, pas
ture their alfalfa during the fall and
winter. This practice is harmful to
all alfalfa. whether it is. young or old.
No doubt it reduces the yields the
following season. although the reduc.
ton may be very slight II conditions
are favorable.
With young alfalfa the practice is
very harmful. 1t reduces the vigor of
the plant. reduces the yield very ma
terially the following years, and fire.
Quently kills out some of the young
plants at time when they are not
very well developed. Fall seeded al
falfa should never be pastured during
the same fall and winter in which it
is seeded. The little feed which the
alfalfa will furnish during the winter
is far more than Offset by the decrease
in yield.
When young alfalfa receives a back.
set 1t may require two or three years
for 1t to fully recover, and during all
of this time the yields are smaller
than they otherwise would be. 1t
pays to give young alfalfa careful
treatment and to give it every oppor-
tunity to make good development.

sILo is A NATIONAL FACTOR
All Great Industries Depending on
Live Stock Ars Advocating Use
Of Huge Receptacle.
tBy A. 1. HAEcKE

fby A. La HACK Err D
The leading agricultural subject Of
the day is the. silo. and its coming is
Of national Importance. No subject is
receiving SO much attention from the
experiment stations farm papers and
farmers institutes. All the great in
dustries depending on live stock. such
as the stock yards, creameries, pack
ing houses and transportation com
panies are advocating its use. 1t is
a conservation subject OF great impor-
tance. for with it can be saved large
part of our principal crop. Nearly 40
per cent. OF the food elements of the
corn crop OF this country are now
being wasted. BY the use OF the silo
this could be saved and by SO doing,
hundreds of millions OF dollars could
be added to our national wealth. The
corn forage which annually goes tc
waste in this country is often referred
to as the billion dollar waste" Is II
any wonder we are complaining of the
high cost of living?
In the past eleven years the great
stock industry of the United States in
comparison with our population, has
been showing decline. This condi
tion has been largely brought about
by the rise of price in all kinds OF
