The Planet Mars.

As to the habitablity of Mars. the planet popularly regarded as offering the nearest aplnoacl to a duplication of earthly conditions F. Walter Maun, der. F. R. 4. S.. in Are the Planets Inhabte1!" is unconproinisingly neg ntive. \ consideration of the Martian temperature and atmosphere leads him to this conclusions:
 What we know of Mars shows us q planet icebound every night, but with day temperature somewhat above freezing point. As we see it. we look upon it's warmcst regions. and the rapidity with which if is cleared of ice. snow and cloud shows the atmosphere to be rare and the moisture little in amount and readily evaporatcd. These seas are probably shallow GeprcssiOns filled with ice to the bottom. but melt ed as to their surfaces by day. From, the variety of tints noted in the seae and the recurrent changes in their out. lines. they are composed of congeries of shallow pools. fed by small. slug siSh streams.

High Price For Straiahtness.

One of the most difficult problems iii practical mechanics is to make a straight edge. How difficult it is may be judged from an incident that occur red in the shop of q celebrated astro- nOmical instrument maker
 A patron asked what would be the price of "a perfect straight edge of glass thirtysiX inches long"
 Tt cannot be made perfect" said the instrument maker. but it could proba- bly be made with q limit of error amounting to only fraction of wave length of light"
 "lIow much would that cost!"
 "About $4O.OOO."
 It turned out that the customer want ed the straight edge for q scraper and that an error of one SiXty-fourth of an inch would not bother him.-St. Louis Republic.

WHEAT RAISING ENCOURAGED

Batesyille, June 25.-The wheat crop, the largest ever harvested in this county, is all threshed out, and every acre has produced satisfactory results.

Last fall the Batesville Mill and Feed Company ordered a carload of seed wheat from Missouri and dis tributed it among the best farmers at exactly cost, simply to encourage the raising of wheat in this county.

THE LIVE STOCK MARKETS.

A. M. Edgar recently shipped a
 car of cattle to tue Veil Packing
 Company of Little Rock MT. Ed
 gar chips quite good many cat
 tie and has been shipping to St.
 Louis, but decided to try the Lit
 tie Rock market with shipment,
 and he is we'll pleased with the
 result. He saved about $70 on
 freight, SIS on commission and $S
 on yarding charges. He received
 St. Louis prices and sustained no
 loss from shrinkage. This means
 nearly $100 per car more profit,
 and in years shipments will
 mean several hundred dollars.
 Arkansas people who deal in cat
 tie should not overlook the advan-
 tages afforded by having a home
 market and should lose no oppor-
 tunity to boost this enterprise, the
 success of which means a great
 dael to the farmers and cattlemen of the state.--Newark (Ark.) Jour-
 nal.
 Stock growers of this immediate section of the state will do we'll tt cad and relish the above. With thu of the Pine Bluff packing ,lant it is assured that the Pine Bluff market will be equally as attractive 0 them It is but natural to predic hat Pine Bluff will be a market tha will draw the cattle growers here witl heir stock. The prices will be ever better than ar elisted at the Missour ,r Illinois markets, because tn, reight charges will make big differ ,nce and the demand will be nor, lrgent here than at the big markets where there is continually big receipt! ,f live stock. The home market should llways be given the preference, ant when the benefits ar' greater.
