Badger Corn Makes Hit With

Wisconsin grown Golden Glow, a
variety of dent corn is making a hit in
Kansas
Reports received from the state by
officials Of the Wisconsin Agricultural
Experiment association are very fav
orable for this vigorous and early ma.
turing variety which was developed at
the Kansas Experiment station.
Early in the season authorities at the
Kansas Experiment Station advocated
the planting of seed of an early matur
ing variety which would become
thoroughly we'll rooted before the hot.
dry weather of late summer struck the
southern Kansas plains,
Golden Glow has apparently filled
the bill. both as to early maturing
qualities and yield as Well, and it is
predicted that wider market than
ever before for hardy northern
grown seed viii follow as soon rs the
southern farmers come to appreciate its
advantages.

WHEN A MAN LIES.
He 6reathes Differently From When
lie Tells the Truth

When YOU are telling Tie YOU
breathe dill ercntly from when you are
telling the truth The difference was
discovered 10y means Of some tests
made upon his students by Professor
RcnuSsi OF Graz
He prepared cards bearing letters.
figures and diagrams and distributed
these among his pupils These were
required to describe the cards correct
~, except in certain cases when the
cards We're marked with II red star
and the students receiving them were
required to describe them falsely. Each
student was watched carefully by his
fellows, Who ignorant of the nature
of the card tried to judge from his
manner whether he was telling the
truth or not The watchers were un,
able to judge with any certainty.
But before each man began his test
the time occupied in inspiration and
expiration was measured, and The
measurement WAS taken again tmmc
diatcly after he finished. 1t was found
that the utterance of n false statement
always increased and the uttcrance of
true statement always diminished,
the quoticnt obtained by dividing the
time of inspiration by the time of eX
piration
DR.. Anton Rose, commenting in Die
Umschau on these results remarks
that the discovery furnishes II certain
criterion between truth and falSehood
For even ii clever liar is likely to fail
in an attempt to escape detection by

An interesting bit OF information
cropped out at the GAINESVILLE speech by
John A, Awkward, candidate for COVER.
nor on the Democratic ticket last week
during the discussion of the question Of
reducing thu state highway fund, He
stated that one of the reasons he be
lieved in reducing the state highway
expenditures was because he had found
that the amount Of money used for
these purposes We're So large ne to he
unwieldly and that it was too much to
be expended economically or to accom-
plish what was intended. In the
audience was the superintendent Of
road work for Rock county, who said:
That statement is correct II ap-
plies to Rock county and to others Of
