Wisdom OF The Horse

Horses are generally given credit
for a great deal more intelligence
than they actually possess. Scierr.
titic tests show that in wisdom
such as human beings display hors-
es are hopelessly outclassed by dogs,
monkeys, and even cats.
The horse can be taught to do
certain things just because he is
too stupid to have any ideas of
his own. Like many human prize
pupils, he can learn but cannot
think.
So far as intelligence goes psychic
logical experiments show that it is
practically a dead heat between
cats, dogs and monkeys.
The dog has human morals, and
therefore people are apt to assume
that he has human logic. But the
cat, say certain persons, in sheer.
brains stands next to man. He
has the adaptive intelligence that

We lay aside the moral aspect Of the case--for there are street

tail to perceive wherein anything is gained by a sojourn of such an

True, people ought not to object to spending money if they re

Arizona Acquires a
Big Tract Of Good Land

The recent taking over of
1000 acres Of land at Fort Grant
was one of the most important
grants ever made to the state.
The fifty-fve buildings at the
old military post. now used as a
state industrial school, and val
ued at about $24O, 900, are in
cluded with the land.
BY the act of congress of Aug.
13, 1912, the state was given
permission to select 1000 acres
at the Fort Grant military post,
providing the selections were
made within three years of the
date of approval of the act.
The grant comes under that of
100, 900 acres made for reforma-
tory and charitable institutions
and the 1000 acres will be sub
tracted from that total. In ad-
dition to this land there are two
school sections lying within the
tract, which automatically revert
to the state, making the total
acreage $3.50. The school Sec
tions are in addition to and not
a part of the grant.
