Class Unusual Mentality With
Freaks And ImbeCileS
Think Majority Of Criminals
Are Such Because Of IdiOCy

New Haven, CT, Jan. 23--Cranks,
geniuses and freaks are types OF the
feeble-minded, displaying the same
psychology, according to Prof. Arnold
l.. Gessell of Yale university. Prof.
Gessell advanced this opinion in a
talk on feeble -mndedness at the men,
tai hygiene conference and maintain
id that it is often difficult to distin-
guish between actual ldocy and genius
Of one type or other,
To illustrate this particular point in
his lecture, Prof Gessell threw upon
the screen the picture OF a patient In
an English asylum, who had perfected

This man, however, was so destitute
of mentality that outside of an institu-
tion he would have been u dangerous
person.
Dr. Gessell Is director of the juven-
lie clinic established at the Yale medi-
cal school for the mental examination
OF children and the educational needs
of special children. He first discussed
the little known prevalence OF feeble
mindedness. He cited the results OF
recent survey of one generation oil
families 1SSO.l9l3) In a village OF
| 1000 inhabitants. sixteen per cent Of
these families proved to have one or
more feeble-minded members, and 10
per cent had insanity. These figures
represent only one village. but this
village was not of the isolated or de-
generate type.
| Feeble-mindedness, the professor de
: clared, Is a constitutional and irremial
mental incompetence dating from birth
or early infancy. The individual rare
ly has the intelligence OF 12.year-old
child and vtry often remains arrested
at the intellectual level Of the primary
school.
DIR. Gessell discussed the present
methods OF determining the levels ol
mental development and Of dcidina
whether the retardation Is durable.
"The idiot" he said "is one who
has an intelligence less than that ol
a 3-year-old baby. The mental age
of the imbecile ranges from the nur
sery age Of 3 to first-reader age Of I
or 5. The psychological age of the

Sunday and Monday it was a very
evident fact that Mr.. Ground Hog
did not see his shadow. One citizen
of this town is reported as going up
on the side of the hill where the sun
always hits and sitting there all day
to see the gentleman come forth to
hunt for his shadow. He was re-
ported as remarking in the evening
that the fellow came out of his hole
but went back with a broad smile
on his face, as much as saying the
farmers are going to get an early
spring.

An industry that bodies well for
the future of the Potlatch section has
been receiving slight attention from
the farmers of this district for sew
eral years, but it remained for w.
w. Tracy, Jr., to bring the industry
to successful fruition on scale large
enough to remove all question as to
the success of this new enterprise
the production of vegetable and
flower seeds.
MIR. Tracy has been in the seed
business all his life and after investi-
eating the soil ingredients and eli
matte conditions of different parts of
the northwest he decided that Big
Bear ridge, about five miles from
Kendrick, affords most promising
field for his business. The two
years he has already devoted to the
carrying out of his work here have
had the effect of removing all doubt
as to the soundness of his conclu-
sions.
Chief among the vegetable crops
that will ingage Mr.. Tracy's atten-
ton the coming season will be beets,
parsnips, turnips and onions, and he
will have about 20 acres devoted to
the growth of miscellaneous flower
seeds. About 100 acres OF all vari-
ties of vegetables and flower seeds
will be handled by Mr.. Tracy the
coming season. Mr.. Tracy's crops
are chiefly grown under contract
with eastern seed firms. When in

Supply in South Fork Country Exhaust

piled With Hay.

Large numbers of cattle and
horses have been brought to the
prairie country near Grangeville for
feed because of the shortage of hay
in the South Fork country, but as
far as known there has been no suf-
fering among the stock in that part
of the country. The prolonged
snowstrom has necessitated feeding
in all sections and the usual supply
kept on hand by the stockmen of
the South Fork country was insuffi-
cient to last the herds during the
storm. The movement of the stock
to tae prairie section was commenc-
ed about ten days ago and all farm
ers who have straw stacks or hay
are finding a good market for their

product.
The stock of the Salmon river
country is either kept at the ranches
along the river or taken to the Snake
river, where large quantities of hay
are put up for the winter feeding.
1t is not believed that any of the
stock has suffered up to the present
time, but the feed supply in all Sec
tons must be nearly depleted and
suffering will follow unless a break
in the weather is experienced at an
early date. The herds that are with
in driving distance of the prairie
country, however, can be cared for,
as the low market price of hay and
barley last fall left large quantities
on the farmers hands.

MONEY IN SEEDS-EAST-
ERN DEALERS BUY CROP
Will Cultivate 100 Acres This Season
to Supply Contracts Already
Secured.

terviewed by a Gazette reporter he
said:
"The seeds grown in this section
have proven to be of exceedingly
high vitality, being far superior in
this respect to seeds usually obtained
by eastern seedsmen from European
sources.
1t requires special machinery for
harvesting and cleaning vegetable
and flower seeds, the major portion
of such machinery being imported
direct from Germany. where seed
growing has reached the highest
stage of development"
Mr.. Tracy employs from six to 18
people for different periods of each
season. The harvesting of the seeds
ranges from June IS to October Is.
The yield of the different varie-
ties of seeds ranges from 400 to 1900
pounds per acre, and the prices OBJ
tanned range from E to 70 cents the
pound, all kinds of garden and
flower seeds now commanding
higher prices throughout the world
than ever before, as will be evi-
denced by a glance at seed cata-
logues.
Mr.. Tracy's knowledge of seeds,
gained from wide experience, has
enlisted the highest confidence Of
many of the large seed firms of the
eastern part of the United States,
and this enables him to obtain very
satisfactory prices for his entire ou
put each season.
