paying big money and some quite the
reverse.

many as sixteen at once" said @. II.
Starck, the pipe major OF the London
Irish Rifles, who makes and teaches
the bagpipes.
AN American told me the other day
I ought to 60 out there. There's a
fortune for you there just now he
said. People are crazy to learn the
bagpipes and to hear them played

Denmark, and which he will SOW on

years ago when Mr.. Jensen returned
from another visit in Denmark he
brought back with him a half bushe]
of seed oats of the variety raised in
that country. The first year he sowed
it o. his South Dakota farm it was
hailed out and he received back only
about a bushel of seed. But by the
fourth season he had 1,40O bushels
from the original seed. The oats
weighed AZ pounds to the bushel and
parts of his field yielded as high as
100 bushels per acre-nearly a record
yield for South Dakota so far as oats
IS concerned. Mr.. Jensen believes he
