THE HUMAN PROCESSION


 Although his achievements have given him place among the great composers of all time, pr. Richard Strauss is stil1 a comparatively young man. The author of ''Safpme,' '' 'sHlektra," and 'sRosenkava1ier''A was born fin Munich forty-nire years ago today. His birthplace at No AL theimereck is marked by 8 marble tablet with the inscription, Richard Strauss was born in this house June II, 1894" Above this legend are fig ures of a singing girl and boy blow ing a horn-possib1ys symbolic of the fact that his father was a horn-pIayer in the Munich royal opera and his mother, who came of a family of wealthy Bavarian brewers was a sing CT of more than local reputation Strauss expressed himself as dissatis- place, "for,'' he explained, ''I expect ed half a dozen cities to compete for the honor of being my birthplace af- ter was dead"
 Strauss, like so many others who have gained musical fame, was juvenile prodigy. He was a mere tod dler when, with his mother and fath- CT as teachers, he began to play piano and violin. At six he began to com pose original music, at sixteen he wrote songs that were very popular, and at seventeen he had a symphony

"Feuersnoth,' was more suc- cessful, while his orchestral compost tions had already made him famous throughout the musical world. The opera -sSa1ome,'' received in a spirit of wild enthusiasm in Germany, and it's production and subsequent with dra.Wal in New York was the sensa- ton of the season Then came tsElek- tra,'' followed by 'sRosonIzavalier'' and lastly "Artadne and Naxos," produced in Berlin last March. By his army of admirers pr. Strauss is looked upon as the herald of the most modern musical aims, another Wagner, over turning tradition and establishing new standards by the force of his genius.

mas from the Secretary of AgricuI- ture.
 The work of getting boys interest ed in championship corn contests has advanced to a point where the De- how it intends to utilize this organ ization of boys in the future. A buIle- tin has just been issued on the sub jeet, and one sentence in the bulletin might have been written in this form:
 WANTED: A boy in every corn growing county of the United States, who can prove his ability as a farmer by several years of superior work in the corn contests. to act for the rest of his life as the official seed-corn grower and distributor in his county profitable work. For further infor- nation apply to Office of Corn In- vestigations. Department of Agricu1- lure, Washington, D. c.
 In other words, 1t is the intention of the Department to effect a perma- nent organization of boy champion corn growers. One in each county Is desired. By improving seed and fur nishing it to the farmers of his coun- ty he will help toward the general plan for doubling the American corn crop.
 The name of the new bulletin is: How to Grow An Acre of Corn-'' It is corn-grower's textbook, written in short. pithy paragraphs, each giv- ing a suggestion on how to improve corn.
 Boys have splendid opportunities to produce better varieties than have ever been produced is the promise held out
 It is also pointed outN that while corn sells commercially for 50 or 75 cents per bushel, the successful corn breeder can sell his corn to his neigh bors for seed for $2 or $S a bushel. A boy who can grow 100 bushels of this sort of corn on an acre spends a very profitable summer.
 Every boy in town, village or the country who has access to an acre of ground ought to write to his con- gressman for this bulletin and get in the corn growing contest.

 minus the Thomas and with the pre- fix of Mrs" when she began her literary career some thirty three years ago. Her first book was a Juvenile story. In 1884 she wrote her first novel, Miss Bretherton,' in which the heroine is an actress, and it is supposed that Miss Mary Ander- son was the model It was not until quarter of a century ago that Mrs. Ward became internationally famous as the author of Robert EIsmere,' g the literary sensation of the decade.
 Despite her advanced opinions in the realm of theology and sociology, Mrs. Ward has no sympathy for the suffrage cause. She recently address ed an ant1-suffrage meeting in Lon don. A picturesque and appealing hg- ure in lace cap and silver and black gown, Mrs. Ward elicited rounds of applapse by declaring that women with the ballot would be inferior poll tical units, serving as raw material for the political purposes of men. Mrs. Wards latest novel, 'The Mating of Lydia,'' is a charming love story of modern rural England, but lacks the strength and power of some of her former work.

HOME RULE PASSES
 SECOND READING
 AMID WILD CHEERS

London, June 1.-The debate on the second reading of the home rulebill, which was rejected by the House or Lords and will have to be passed three times by the Commons under the Far liament bill, was resumed yesteroay'
 Bonar Law, the Unionist leader, sa1o his party refused to make any sug- gestions for modifying the bill. Such a course, he declared, would be an ad- mission that they had abandoned the fight against the principle of home rule. The way in which the Premier was trying to carry the bill, said MT. Law. was an outrage upon Parliament He was using the Parliament bill to defeat the will of the people.
 The Unionists, the leader of that party declared intended to appeal di- rectly to the people. He hinted- that there was a bargain between the Gov ernment and the Irish Nationalists, whereupon Premier Asquith and John Redmond, the Irish leader, both in ter4-upted and emphatfca1ly denied the statement made by MT. Law.
 The Government, said Bonar Law, was promoting a revolution which U1egter. would meet with @ counter rev .o441ttcn. The division on the second reading was then taken Mir Ball. tours motion to reject the biH was dsfeated by, a vote of s6a to 27O- The

 In the past five or six years the Department has shown by demon Btration for young men there Is great CT opportunity in producing the gold of the corn crop than there ever was in gathering the gold from the placer mines of California
 For no 1o-year period has the corn yield of the United States exceeded an average of 2S bushels per acre. Not even the most fertile state has ever produced over 54 bushels per acre Yet in practically every section of the country yields of over 100 bushels are continually being pro- duced by good farmers.
 Tt is perfectly obvious that the corn yield of the United States can be C

easily doubled by the spread of good farming methods. Or, if such a yield is beyond our needs, the acreage de- voted to corn can be greatly reduced and the land devoted to other needed crops.
 There are untold billions of dollars which can be added to the wealth of the nation by increasing the corn pro- duction- No other line of activity of fers such opportunities.
 The hope of the Department and of the country is in the boys They. more quickly than men, grasp the scientific principles underlying the successful breeding of corn for great CT crops.

HARDENING OF THE ARTERIES KILLS THE POOR
 AS WE'LL AS THE RICH

Tn the 'EHeaIth and Horse- Power' department of the May American Magazine, Dr. Woods Hutchinson presents many new facts about hardening of the arr teries. Following is an extract from his article:
 4gThe important question is, What causes these premature occurrences U3 this compara- lively natural oId-age change?
 sHTen or fifteen years ago. we were considerably more sure in our reply to this question than we are today. It was almost un- aIlinOusIy taken for granted that the principal cause of this premature stifTening and hard ening of the arteries was the sO- called strains of modern civil Hzed life, particularly high liv- ing, hard drinking and incessant brain work.
 'sAII of these beliefs have pretty much vanished into thin air, under the acid test of cold blooded investigation and anaIy- sis. So far from arterfosclero- sis being a modern disease, some
 
 instances of it on record have been taken from the blood veS- sels of Egyptian nummtes em- baInaed in, the fifteenth century B. c.
 s'It was a disease of meat eaters and particularly wine drinkers, solely because classes able to indulge in these extra fSN pay for more careful study and elaborate diagnoses, which re- veaIed the condition. It is now known to be twice as common in sweat shop workers as among the Four Hundred.
 'It was typicaay 8 disease of brain workers, solely because the intelligence and resources of this class of the conmun- itv brought them into conSulta- tion rooms for advice and as- distance. It is now found to be more than twice as common among dock hands and day 1a- borers as among merchants and lawyers and college professors One finding win serve 9s a. sann- pie.
 44Eone three thOuaand patti ents under forty years of age skudied in one of our great hos pfba1s and carefully examined for this condition showed a dis trfbutiOn as follows:
 GOT those who had used alco- IloI to excess, about ten per cent. showed more OF Less ar terfoscIerosfs.
 s4Of those who had. suffered within ten or fifteen years from one of the graver infections, such as tuberculosis, typhoid, pneumonia, or syphilis, but had not used alcohol to excess, about twenty per cent. had more or less arterioscIerosfs. While of those who had been engaged in occupations involving aevere and prolonged muscular strain, such as dock Iaborers, cOnstruc- ton gangs, 1umbermens steel and iron workers, and so forth, but had not indu1ged i'm alcohol to excess, over forty per cent. showed tf1As premature change. So that we are now in a posi- tioD to say that the two most noteuN causes of this new dis ease of civilization and of brain worries are muscular overSfTseln and infectious diseases

convention Of the Minnesota Bankers
association. George M. Reynolds, pres
ldent of a large bank in Chicago is
one OF the principal speakers. talking
on the administration of the currency
bill. a&
He said that as result. of personal
| interviews with President Wilson and
those in charge Of the bill at Wash
1ngton, he was impressed that it was
the desire of all concerned to devise
the best plan possible. One of the
principal criticisms was. that directed
seven members Of the federal reserve
board to the exclusion from delibera-
| tions of bankers and business men. A.
| 1t is charged that this plan calculates
ito place the whole system of bank
ing under the domination and control
of a purely political board" He urged
the plan providing for repre-
sentation from the banks on the fed
eral reserve board, or the organization
of an advisory board, composed Of one
member selected from each federal re-
| serve bank. thus bringing them into
daily contact with federal reserve
! board, and men familiar E with the
| banking business and the AGRICULTURAL
conditions. He also urged the modifi-
cation of the section relating to the
reserves byzproviding a plan fully tried
| that third of the reserves of the
banks in the country towns and the
reserve the city banks are required to
carry, may be carried with the reserve
correspondents as now under the ma
tional banking law. He claimed that
this decentralizes the reserves and is
much less liable to disturb general bus
mess than the bill now planned.
