Stars Far Hotter Than Sun.

The temperature of seventy stars
has been calculated by a German
astronomer from comparisons OF the
differences OF intensity In different
portions OF the suns spectrum. One
star, Gamma Pegasi. seems to have
the inconceivable heat OF more than
100000 degrees C. The next Is much
cooler. Gamma Cassiopeiae at $4,000
degrees but this Is vastly hotter
than Alpha Tauri. the coolest. at 1.15o
degrees. BY the same scale OF COM
putation the temperature of cur sun
Is found to be 1850 degrees. 'rhe
hottest stars are the telium starr.
and those showing bright hydrogen
lines In their spectra.

WISCONSIN LEADS
DAIRY INDUSTRY
TOOK FIRST PLACE IN 1909, WHEN
NEW YORK DROPPED
TO SECOND.
YEATS PRODUCT s53,843,249
Number Of Factories $3.50 Showing
Growth OF 1875 Per Cent. During
Ten Years From 1899 to 19o9-AIso
Leads Cheese Industry.

Washington.-Figur regarding the
butter, cheese and condensed milk in
1ustry during 1909, just given by the
census bureau, show that in that year
Wisconsin took first place, as meas
ured by the value of products, dis
placing New York.
In 1909 Wisconsin had $3.50 dairy
establishments, turning out products
valued at $53,S43,249, which was 1876
per cent of the total value of dairy
products of the United States. In the
decade, 1899 to 1909, the Badger dairy
industry had grown 1875 per cent.
Minnesota Also Gains.
In average number of wage earners
and value added by manufacture, New
b York still held first place in 1909 and
Wisconsin ranked second, but the per-
centage of increase for the decade in
these items, as well as in the value
of products, were less for New York
than for Wisconsin. Iowa ranked third
as regards value of products in 1909.
Minnesota, which shows an increase of
the five-year period, advanced from
fifth place in 1904 to fourth in 1909,
having exchanged positions with Illi-
nois, which shows q gain of only 34.1
per cent for this period.
Wisconsin Largest Butter Producer.
In the quantity of butter manufac-
tured in the factories of the industry
there was an increase of 204, 63S, 10Y
pounds, or 4S7 per cent, during the
decade 1S99-1909 Wisconsin ranked
first in the production of butter in
1909 with 1913 ,S84,6S4 pounds; Mime,
sofa was second, with SS,S42,846
pounds; and Iowa was third, with 49,.
5S2,1S7 pounds. Although the manu-
facture of butter was reported from
fortythree states in 1909, the com
bined product of six states, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Iowa, New York, Califor-
MIA and Michigan, amounting to AGO.
002,143 pounds, represented GA per
cent of the total for the industry.
Badger Cheese Industry Leads.
The production of cheese in 1908
was 1.9 per cent less than in 1904
and only 1913 per cent greater than
that in 1899, and since both of the
other main products of this industry
show considerable increase for the
period 1904-1909, as well as for the
decade, it may be inferred that milk
Is less probably used in the manu-
facture of cheese than in the manu-
facture of butter or condensed milk
BY far the largest gain in any state
during the decade 1S99-19O9 was thai
in Wisconsin, amounting to 70,316,96S
pounds, or 90.4 per cent

MURRAY COMES FROM THE TALL GRASS

Washington will grow accustomed
to calling Representative Murray of

not be long before Washington drops

plainly. Alfalfa Bill is one Of the
sights of the new congress and Is
the riddle of Oklahoma politics. He
comes from the tall grass and speaks
the language OF senator while in

any time or place that he chooses
