WHY HE TALKS RAPIDLY

DR.. G. w. Garfield, president of
Carroll college, who delivered the
address at the High school COM
mencement last week, is a rapid fire
talker. At times the words came
with such speed it was difficult to
follow him. Observing this, DR..
Garfield said:
The reason | talk so rapidly is
this: When l was a boy living on a
farm we had a horse that went SO
fast that we had to speak quickly
when driving him else the words
would never reach him.
Zone day | was driving him ahead
of a storm that approached at the
rate of forty miles an hour. 1t was
a hailstorm and l wanted to keep
ahead of it.
Il had to speak exceedingly fast
in order that the horse might hear
my urging. But he did, and we
beat out the storm. When we got
home we had been facing the u
all the way, and looking around |
found that the back of the buggy
was filled with hailstones. Dunn

LIFE OF A SIBERIAN EXILE.
One Political Offender Who Lives Ian
Comparative Luxury.

One Political Offender Who Lives ln
Comparative Luxury.
How a political exile lives in Siberia
is shown in NJ. b. Prices book Isl
beria." Mr.. Price encountered this ex-
lie at Minusinsk. He and his family
lived in a large house, a3d his actual
punishment seems to con sist of a GER
tain social ostracism consequent upon
Punishment from the great centers of
Russian life.
when l vent to call upon him he
came to the door himself and. showing
NE in through a room where he and
his wife had been having their even
ing meal, ushered me into a room be-
yond. | noticed his calm. philosophical
face was that of a man who had evil
IDENTIFY endured mental strain with stoi-
cal fOrtitude, but his wife, more nerv-
Gus than he. showed signs of former
anxiety. 1t seemed strange indeed that
[ should be sitting in company with
two members Of high Russian society,
now ostracized by exile to Siberia, and
stranger still to partake of their intel
ligent conversation on topics of human
interest.
First of all l was interested to know
what sort of restrictions were placed
upon the exile's liberty. l found that
he was not allowed to leave the dis
trict in which he resided and that ev-
cry week he had to sign his name in
a book kept at the house of the chief
'nachalink.' With that exception his
life was free. He had money, and he
could live as he liked and go where he
wished within that district, but he was
continually watched by spies, who
logged his footsteps wherever he went
HE related to me how he had ac-
quired gold concessions On the Mon
golian frontier and was hoping to find
capital to float a syndicate for working
them next year. This was not at all
my idea of the life of a Siberian exile.
Instead of being made to work him
self in the galleries of the gold mines
till death released him from his chains,
the exile now floats mining syndicates."

DAIRYING IN WISCONSIN

The official statement given out
by the bureau of statistics that the
value of Wisconsin cows advanced
from ST., 0O0, 900 at the close Of 1912
to $92, 900 900 at the end of 1913 is
one more instance of our dairyin9
wealth. This is due largely to an
advance in the average price of COWS
from SAL to $50, which in turn had
been caused by the largely increased
profits from milk, butter and cheese.
An addition to the wealth of the
state in a single item of $21, 900, 900
in a year is worth noting. 1t is
proof of the sound basis of Wiscon-
sin agricultural industry.
This state has one-eighth of all
the COWS in the United States, and
her proportion of the total is steadi-
ly increasing. Assuredly the people
OF the state in general as we'll as
the stock growers have ample cause
for rejoicing in this abundance -

INFINlTUDE OF SUNS.

Those Beyond Our Ken.
The photographs of 25,876 standard
plates show the points, or images, of
1%OO,OO0,OO0 suns. These have not been
actually counted, but plates secured by
exposure in telecameraS to typical
regions of the sky have, and the entire
number has been subjected to the cal
culus Of probabilities, resulting In the
general number of 100000 900 colossal
suns.
These have been weighed-that is,
their combined force of ~gravitatfonal
attraction has been computed. This
led to one Of the most overwhelming
overwhelmingly, this entire pull Of
attractions of the quantity Of matter
in 1OO,0 100000 suns as massive as u
W sun could not even begin to. i'm
part the high specific speeds of several
we'll known runaway" suns. These
are dashing through what has been
named space with velocities so much
greater than all other suns that they
are a class by themselves.
Our sun contains 333,426 times more
matter than is in the earth. and this
multiplied by 10O,0O0,OO0 reveals the
quantity of matter known to exist, be
yond all human imagination. But this
immense mass may almost be ignored
as a mere fraction in comparison with
the gigantic quantity necessary to inn
part a velocity of from 80 to 200 miles
per second to these suns flying athwart
the sidereal universe.
Let the number of these suns or DARK
bodies run up to trillions or octillions.
