RAILROAD BUYS
SHORT-HORN HERD
Will Be Used as Foundation fol-
Pure Bred Cattle.

| In furtherance of it's work looking
toward the introduction of pure-b bred
cattle on the farms along it's road,
the Nashville, Chattanooga & st.
Louis Railway has purchased herd
of Short-Horn cattle from Mai.
John Cowan, of Max Meadows, Va,
thru Industrial Agent F. M. Ewing.
The cattle secured are the pick of
the herd of this famous breeder and
consists of eighteen COWS and heifers
and four bulls.
1t is the plan of the road to intro
duce the Short-Horn breed in this
territory thru the community bull"
plan by selling at a reasonable sale
price young bull to community
OF farmers, or loaning such animal
to responsible community in the
event the farmers do not care to
purchase outright.
The members of this herd of
Short-Horns are descended from
stock imported from England, and
as Maj. Cowan has been breeder for
fifty years, the animals are said to
be the result of careful selection and
breeding, being recognized as the
best "dual-purpose" breed in the
country-that is, the best breed for
beef and milking purposes.
The purpose of the NJ, c.. & st.
L. Railway in securing this herd is
not to make any money out of the
venture, but to use the herd as an
encouragement to the farmers, and
to show them what this type of ami
NAL is capable of producing, and in
what way the introduction of the
Short Horn on their farms will be of
benefit,
The average farmer wants a COW
that will give sufficient milk for his
needs, and in the event there is a
bull calf, he wants one that will
make good baby beef or beef steer.
Both these qualities are found in the
and for that reason it
is believed that the efforts of the In
dustrial Department of the road will
be appreciated by the farmers over
the territory.
The herd is at present located on
the farm of Mr.. Ewing in Giles
County, but will later be moved to a
farm of the road, where the farmers
will be shown the advantages of the
5hoft-Horn. In this connection the
industrial Department of the road is
seeking to bring the breeders and
purchasers of the State in closer
ouch, and has been enabled to in
reduce considerable Tennessee-bred
took on Tennessee farms.

Birds EuqS,

Even the same kind Of bird often
lays eggs that show a great difference
in their marking. And often this is
true of the same individual bird. At
least one long, infertile egg is included
in the clutch of a house sparrow, be-
sides several eggs that are Of a darker
or lighter shade than each other. One
may find dozen clutches that contain
some one type quite different from the
rest. The tree sparrow also lays one
always different from the others in the
clutch. Some birds always lay an I'M
colored egg, such as the golden eagle,
osprey and others. Some BIRDS eggs
vary much more than others in color
and markings. n result Of experience
shows that the following are among
the common birds that lay eggs which
vary considerably: Robin, Ennet, rock,
skylark, cuckoo. hawk and snipe.-Chi-

TWO FINE SHOTS.
They Won Fame For the Marksman as
Lion Killer.

They Won Fame For the Marksman as
Lion Killer.
\ good story is told Of a trading
agent in Nyassaland. He was obsessed
with particularly real horror Of lions.
One Of these brutes began to eat up the
natives Of the nearby village, doing ter
rible havoc. The agent barricaded
himself in his room and slept with six
native watchmen on duty in case the
lion should try to break into his house.
One night he thought he heard the
lion prowling around and promptly
fired out Of the window, knocking a
hole in the government boat. The fol-
lowing morning he was astonished to
see what had happened.
That night he again heard sounds
which seemed to foretell the presence
Of the lion. He seized his rifle and
fired and this time succeeded in bag
ging the district officers favorite mule
at the first shot.
A certain we'll known sportsman,
who shall be nameless, was hunting in
the district and heard the story. He
wrote to the agent and congratulated
him on shooting his first lion. The
agent rose to the occasion and now 81
lences all skeptics by, producing the let
ter. He has since acquired quite a
reputation as a lion hunter on the
strength of this testimonial-C

THE FIRST TROUSERS.
They Were Worn Skin Tight and Led
Men to Pad Their Legs.

UoIa 70 = az HSN ISSSs
The advent of the silk hat led to the
introduction Of trousers. Knee breech-
es and silk stockings did not CORE
spond with stovepipe hats. Try them
now and see if you think they do. So
reformers set themselves to work to
devise some neither garments congru-
Gus with the new headpiece.
The result was trousers. There had,
it is true, been some precursors Of
those inimitable garments. The Turk
had worn voluminous twin bags on his
legs, gathered and tied, bag fashion,
at the ankles. The Cossacks, too, had
found such things more convenient for
horseback riding than any other garb.
and "pantaloons" We're used in armies,
especially by the French But none of
these nor any other garment that was
worn prior to 1916 could be described
as genuine trousers.
The first trousers worn in London
were Of plain, light colored cloth, and
fitted very tightly; almost as tight, we
may believe, as those in this country
a generation ago. In the second sea-
son striped and other figured cloths
were used by some, but such trousers
were regarded as quite plebeiah and fit
for wearing only in bad weather when
the streets were muddy, or as sort of
rough outing garb at the seaside. A
favorite material for trousers worn by
men Of fashion was an elastic stock
met, which fitted literally "skin tight
Beneath such garments, to supply the
deficiencies of nature, men were not
averse to wearing false calves and
other paddings on their legs. Straps
passing beneath the foot were used to
keep the houser legs held down In
place.-Exchange

LOCUST TREES.
They Are Very Easy to Raise and Yield
Valuable Timber.


Valuable Timber.
No wood is easier or more quickly
grown than the common locust, and
but few if any kinds of timber are
more valuable to their owners at this
time Of need in lumber that has COM
mercial value
Curiously enough locust trees will
grow in almost any soil. They are
easily started and can be transplanted
without danger of loss. They also may
De grown in out of the way or waste
places where the soil is unfit for cult
walton, and they grow so rapidly that
in few years locust grove will have
trees that are large enough to be made
into posts for fencing or lumber for
furniture or house finishing.
Locusts bear the most honey laden
flower carried by any tree extensively
are plenty Of locusts and bees in the
same community there will be heavy
yield Of honey.
Locust posts have been known to re-
main In the ground for fencing pur-
poses for period Of sixty years, and
when removed the bark was not decay
ed, and the wood was almost as solid
as iron.
The latest use for locust is in the
manufacture Of fine furniture and in
terror finishing Of fine residences. The
wood has a grain and color not found
in any other timber.-New York Jour-

D0PPLER'S LAW OF LIGHT.
It Proves That Our Solar System i

The fact that our solar system is
travelling northward at q rate of twelve
miles per second has been determined
able laws in the entire history of
science, Doppler's law Of light Stand
by railway track and listen to a rapid
train approaching. AS it approaches the
bell or whistle will increase the pitch
Of its sound and instantly lower the
pitch Of tone after it passes and recedes.
When coming more waves enter the
ear and less when it is departing.
Light consists of the action of waves
on the retina of the eye. Our earth and
sun, all bodies in the solar system, are
moving to a point in the celestial
vault not far from the star Vega, in
the constellation Lyra, and, Of course,
receding from the opposite point Of the
sky. Waves entering the slit of the
spectroscope from the northern stars
are compressed-namely, more enter

the violet end Of the spectrum, less en-

dispersed toward the red.
Now, exalted mathematics, based on
the laws Of light, determine the extent
Of dispersion Of waves toward the red
