(Frorl The Springfield RepuohcdH)
In the amazement expressed at the resig-
nation of successful and popular college
president in order 70 return as professor
to scientific work. we have a striking illus
traton of the growing dominance OF the
executive function. Possibly the tendency
illustrates what German philosophers call
the Twill 10 power" Perhaps it is a natural
consequence of modern collectvism. A. all
events we see everywhere, and even in the
most inappropriate places, the growth Of the
feeling that il is better 20 bose ;he job
than TO be n worker.
Many n man who has risen TO responsible
Office knows in his heart that he would be
happier and quite as usefully employed az
his old job, doing things instead Of watching
others do them. To make the most of both
functions is the great test Of society, and
America in particular needs TO take care 10
encourage thinkers, students, inventors. sci
entifc Investigators, men of learning and
Of genius as we'll as the men who have the
.uore conspicuous but no more important
work Of directing others. The great danger
in the worship Of success is that success
may be wrongly identified with conspicuous
ness or with money reward Il is we'll some
times to have the emphasis put OH the work
ITSELF the man who is entirely absorbed In
his work would not trade jobs with king
or kaiser.

HOW APPENDICITIS
CAN BE PREVENTED

Bemidji people should know that
few doses of simple buckthorn bark,
glycerine, etc., as mixed in Ad-ler-i-
ka, often relieve or prevent appen-
dicitis. This simple mixture removes
such surprising foul matter that
ONE SPOONFUL relieves almost
ANY CASE of constipation, sour
stomach or gas. A short treatment
helps chronic stomach trouble.
Adler-i-ka has easiest and most thor

Live Stock Increasing in U. S. A.

make a business of breeding horses
for sale in other sections. Mules
have declined even more than horses,
their value being now $11.50 per
head less than year ago.
The explanation is to be found in
the depression on account of the cot
ton situation in the South, which is
the great market for mules. An i'm
provement in this respect will do
much to restore the demand for
horses, so that Government special
lists while ridiculing the notion of
horse famine are convinced that
farmers will find it profitable to use
good work mares for breeding more
stock.
Situation In Hides.
AS for hides. the situation is not
quite so clear, but even here there
has been much gross exaggeration.
From two-fifths to less than one-half
of the leather used in this country is
imported, about rs per cent of the
foreign hides coming from Argentina,
Is per cent from Canada, II per
cent from Mexico, Sh per cent from
European Russia, and 7b per cent
from France. Since the outbreak of
the war, importations have shown a
certain falling off, those for Septem-
Der. 1914, for example, being only
34,O00,000 pounds, instead of 49,
100000 pounds the year previous.
There Is, however, little reason to
suppose that this decrease will be
permanent or of sufficient i'm
portance to create any real scarcity
Since the great bulk of the imported
hides come from countries that are
not at war, shipments are not inter-
fered with in any way, and the only
new factor to be considered is the
possibility of an increased demand
by the warning countries.
1t is believed, however, that the
United States Is now In better con-
dition to face such a situation than
for years past. The tide, 1t seems,
has turned. Instead of livestock
steadily decreasing year after year,
this year for the first time, as has
been said, all classes show an ap-
preciable increase. Including horses,
mules, milch cows, beef cattle,
sheep and swine, there were on jan
uary /, 1915, 7,712,000 more farm
animals in the United States than on
January l, 1914. The increase in
the total value was $7S,024,O0O, or
1.3 per cent.
1t is quite true that this increase
is not yet proportional to the in
crease in population, which is ap-
proximately per cent; but the fact
that there is an increase, that the
tide seems definitely to have turned,
is regarded as a sufficient answer to
alarming exaggerations and mislead-
ing figures.

Utilization of Wood
Waste Is Profitable

IT has been estimated by the Forest
/ Service that 100000 cords Of
wood waste is consumed annually as
refuse in the Pacific Northwest
This would be sufficient to yield 195
billion cubic feet of producer gas. and
develop from it 1925 million k. W. h.
OF electric energy.
Thus far the most extensive de-
Velopment OF wood gas producers has
been in France and Sweden. Plants
are operated also in England. India
and Mexico. In this country there
are few producer plants operating
in the South and Southwest In the
former region producer gas il being
generated from wood waste, COM
posed of so per cent sawdust and 80
per cent sawmill hog. The cost per
Drake horsepower hour was found tn
De 22R mills, half of which was for
fuel and half for labor. Using coal
In the same way, the cost was frac-
tion over % mills per brake horse
power hour, 7k mills being for
labor. Through these various oner.
ations, 1t has been found also that
wood has the following advantages
over coal:
l. Very little ash and that easily
removable.
2. High grade of gas.
.. Much less tar and that Of more
liquid character.
T.. Constant quality Of gas with
little labor.
5. Low cost per horsepower hour.
Among the present uses Of pro.
ducer gas as a heating medium are
ennoaling, enameling, iapanning. SOL
dering, forging, coffee roasting, glass
finishing, paper drying, in lime and
cement kilns, pottery ikilns, glass fur
naces, bakers ovens and laundry
irons.
In view Of the fact that there is
much wood waste in the Northwest.
the process of utilizing 1t in the gas
producer and gas engine is one which
seems to have a good chance for larg-
er development. It is a more eco
nomical method Of producing power
than by burning wood under steam
boilers, especially where such small
waste as shavings and sawdust can
be used.
The District Forester, Portland,
Or, will furnish further information
to those who may be particularly In
terested.

Government Will Stop
Adulteration of Oats

CEVENTY-FIVE carloads Of oats
~ intended for export have recently
been seized by the Federal authorities
because they were found to be adul-
terated within the meaning of the
Food and Drugs Act. The adultera-
ton charged is the addition of feed
barley or water or both. Under GER
tain circumstances adulteration In
these ways may be so profitable that
1t is believed to be at times a COM
mon practice among grain shippers.
The Government, however, is de-
termined that the practice shall
cease at once, and field representa-
tives of the Department of Agrlcul-
ture have all been instructed to ex-
ercise the utmost vigilance in de-
tecting future shipments adulterated
in this way.
Low grade barley which is known
to the trade as feed barley is
sometimes mixed with oats when
ehNiS 10 ouHlNiciI uluGI tHCt DetWetu
the prices Of the two grains to make
this profitable. This feed barley"
is the product which remains after
the best grade of the grain has been
separated and removed for mailing
purposes,
1t contains material percentages Of
weed seeds. foreign grains and dust,
and the addition to oats of such a
product is held to be a violation Of
the Food and Drugs Act. The ad-
dition Of water to oats arises from
the fact that the grain is sold by
weight. Investigations of the De-
partment of Agriculture have re-
vealed the fact that water is some
times added in the amount of from
2 to per cent.
In the opinion Of the Government
officials there is no reason why
either of these practices should be
tolerated. Grain shippers and deal
ers, therefore, are being warned that
the prevalence of the custom in the
past will not affect the legal pro-
ceedings against future shipments
found to be adulterated in this way.
