Modest Scientist.

Near the little village OF Nyack
there lives in modest retirement upon
the farm of his fathers and Of his own
boyhood George William Hill. AL
though he is perhaps the greatest
genius that this country has as yet
borne, it is safe to say that not one
person in a thousand, even among
people of education, is familiar with
his name, much less with his work.
But among astronomers, both abroad
and at home POSSIBLY more abroad
than at home), he is recognized as
being one of very few to whom as
tronomy of the present day owes
most. Here again discoveries form no
part of this notable career; and, In
fact, SO far as records go, Hill may
never have used a telescope. His
greatest work is in connection with
periodic orbits. the best method yet
devised for handling the problem of
three bodies under certain restric-
tions.-Dr. Frank Schlesinger, in Sci
ence.

DIET AND HEALTH
HINTS
BY DIR. t. J. ALLEN
Food Specialist
CAUSES OF PELLAeRA.

1t was proved by thorough
dietetIc tests made by the state
of Illinois, that peIlagra Is not
caused by eating corn, as Pro-
fessor Lombroso and other ItaI-
Ian authorities had concluded.
Now experiments conducted by
an Atlanta physician seem TO
lead to the conclusion that bu-
lyric acid caused by the fer
mentation of rancid fats is the
cause--and 1t Is we'll to note
that butyric acid Is developed
in cooking of some fats, espe-
clalIy that of the peanut--and
this conclusion is supported by
many clinical cases quoted In
"ClinicaI Medicine" by another
physician, who found that many
patients who suffered from pei
lagra had subsisted largely on
corn and bacon. Corn contains
a larger per cent. of than
the other cereals and Il e Italian
authorities concluded that the
poor were especially liable be-
cause they used much spoiled
corn meal. Another Atlanta
physician, however, Endorses the
theory of DR.. Sanbon, that pei
lagra is due to the bite OF fly,
basing his conclusion largely on
the similarity of conditions in
Italy and in Georgia, where It
has several times been epIden1-
Ic. It has been fully estab-
lIshed that there 10 no danger
in fresh corn, but whether the
conclusion that rancid fat Is the
cause is correct or not, It 10
we'll to note that rancid or
highly cooked fat of any kind
Is TO be avoided.

DADDY HAD HAD FULL MEAL
Wall of Small Boy Awakened SLEEPY"
Man to Realization Of What He
Made Away With.

One night last week papa got home
late. There had been so many things
to attend to at the Oflice-and after
that a customer from out of town had
arrived, and-well, papa got home
awfully late. He hated to disturb the
family. so he camped in the dining
room. And in the morning. being thirs-
ty, he arose, drank water, and retired
under the table again.
Then came his little son. the earliest
to arise. Little son viewed the situa-
ton in the dining room. then lifted up
his voice and wept
whats the natter" groaned papa.
you've gone and drank up all the
water In that glass aquarium you gave
me for Christmas"
well, never mind that. You can
put some fresh water in it, and it'll be
all the better"
Eyes, but who's goin' to put fresh
goldfish and pollywogs and mud tur-
ties in it,
Then papa sat up and took notice.

The wellbred draft horse is always
in demand and the farmer who breeds
it constantly i'm the one who makes
the most profit in horses.
The patient mule is not much for
speed, but he keeps going. and usually
arrives on time
A mule never seems to be really
frightened at anything. When he
runs away he does 1t through pure
love of mischief.
A mule scents danger almost as
unerringly as the elephant
Ever know a mule to step in hole
or venture upon an unsound bridge
of his own volition?
No white man can ever get on as
good terms with a mule as the negro
can.
The average mule will do as much
work at two years old as the horse
will at three or four
Never tie a mule up in stall over
night The open field for him always

high as $500 per pair for American

REALLY FRIENDS OF FARMER
Sparrow. by Its Consumption Of Weed
Seeds, Saves Agrlculturists I'm
mense Sums Yearly.

One of the most useful groups Of
native birds is the sparrow family.
While some of the tribe wear gay
suits Of many hues, most Of the spar
rows are clad in modest brown tints,
and as they spend much of the time
in grass and weeds are commonly
overlooked. UnObtrusive as they are,
they lay the farmer under a heavy
debt of gratitude by their food habits.
since their chosen fare consists large
~ of the seeds of the weeds. Selecting
typical member of the group. the
tree sparrow for instance, one-fOurth
ounce of weed seed per day is a con
servative estimate of the food OF an
adult. On this basis. In large agricul-
tural state like Iowa tree sparrows an
nually eat approximately SO tons of
weed seed
Some idea of the money value Of
this group of birds to the country may
be gained from the statement that the
total value of the farm products in the
United States in 1910 reached the
amazing sum of $S.926.OO0,Ooo. If we
estimate that the total consumption Of
weed seed by the combined members
of the sparrow family resulted in a
saving of only one per cent. of the
crops not a violent assumption the
sum saved 10 farmers by these birds
In 1910 was S9.2GO 900.
