REFORM NEEDED

The annual report of the Com
missioner of Indian Affairs for
1914 has been issued and gives
some very interesting matter and
tabulated statements. The follow
ING figures haye been collected
therefrom for the purpose OF
drawing the attention of people
interested enough to do SO, to get
some information about the In
dians as given by the Indian
Office. and then, as residents OF
the State, make some comparisons
If they can.
The figures quoted apply only to
the Cheyenne River Reservation,
but those of the other reservations
would also be of interest. These
only are given, with the hope that
the Indians, and their friends, will
follow them up enough to inquire
if the figures are true, and to
enable the Indian to know how
rich he is-on paper.
ssThere are 1851 Indians on the
(originaD reservation; 1898 speak
English and LIZA read and write
the English language: S173,370

About Sound Waves.

One Of those scientists rho are al
ways developing apparent paradoxes
In thought has come forward with the
statement that sound itself is not ex-
traneous, but exists only because Of
nerve. In other words, if the ears of
the human race were removed tomor-
TOW the world would be absolutely
noiseless to humanity. The contention
is that the sound waves, travelling at
rate OF 1,0s0 feet second, create
Invisible ripples in the air just as a
pool ripples when a rock is thrown
into 1t. The greater the force of these
waves the louder the sound. But there
Is no noise until these sound waves
strike the sensitive nerves Of the ear.
Thus, reYerting to the original PROPOSE
tion, the air waves themselves would
be noiseless did they not operate in
conjunction with ths human sense Of
bearing.

GET EGGS IN WINTER
Nothing More Satisfying Than
Thrifty Laying Hens.
Fowls Should Be Kept Comfortable
and Fed ReguIarly-keep Pure
Water Before Them Always
Clean Quarters Essential.
(By II. CHANDLER.)


There is no profit in keeping poul-
try in winter without eggs, and moth
ing that brings more satisfaction, or
better returns than good, thrifty, lay
ing hens.
Some seem to have the knack OF
getting eggs in winter, while others
are forever complaining. To be sue
cessful, one must use judgment. No
fool can succeed in this line Of busi-
ness.
Laying hens should have the best OF
attention. They should be kept COM
Portable both night and day, and fed
regularly on clean food, and pure wa
ter should be kept ever before them.
Plenty Of fresh air, sunshine, and
clean quarters are absolutely neces.
sary tc, the production Of winter eggs.
Many make the mistake Of having
i too many windows. The fowls gathe-
in the sunshine during the day and
get too warm, and nsequently feel the
night chill more. There should be at
least one large window on the south
side and one in the east side, but II
should be SO arranged that the fowls
cannot get nearer to them than dis
tance Of two feet at least. See to il
that there are no cracks to admit the
wind at night, but remember that 8
little outside air, during the day, wher
| the fowls are moving about, is good
thing.
It is an excellent thing to have g

On our farm, where I worked we
had 40 COWS to milk morning and
night. Two of US to do the work un.
der boss who was mean, fault finding
and dictatorial, and who always
thought we were not accomplishing
what we should and also always had
on tap some work for US to attack be-
fore we were properly through with
what we were then doing. He watched
our every move, routed US out at four
o'clock in the morning and saw to 1t
that it was eight or nine o'clock at night
before we were through. We were
supplied with candles for retiring,
which were usually short enough to
burn out within Lalf an hour. after
going to our sleeping quarters. Indis-
position on the part Of any workman
was no excuse, pay being deducted for
time spent on the sick list, and never,
while was there, was there any sym
pathy shown or any attempt made to
help man recover. Such boss loses
more in consequence through lack OF
interest and from carelessness in the
performance of the work on the part
Of his help than is compensated by the
extra work done for the satisfaction.

MMs ians,, Fitted Him.

The friends Of certain senator say
that, although it is admitted that some
one used senate stationery to promote
mining scheme, 1t Is very unjust TO
make any charge Of dishonesty against
the Indy old man. To illustrate his
character, they tell this story: He
was one of the funeral party that ac-
companied the body of distinguished
senator to its burial place. On the
return trip he went early to bed. The
next morning his round, red face, de,
void Of hair, gentle Of expression and
wrinkled, was thrust out Of his berth
as the Pullman conductor passed by.
Are we on time, captain?' called out
the senator in his thin piping voice
"Just on time, madame" said the con-
ductor, as he lifted his hat and PASSED
on.

ing the day open the door and set up
the lath door, and button it on with
wooden buttons.
You will see how quickly the fowls
will get to the fresh air and shake out
their feathers. It is well to have a
good supply Of fresh litter with small
grain thrown into it, at hand to keep
them busy There is little danger OF
their getting a chill, even on very
cold days.
One of the most essential things I
know of for success with winter egg
raising is to have everything perfect
ly dry. Dampness and thrift never
dwell together. Never give water In
troughs, for in this manner too much
of it gets emptied. The best method
for watering fowls that have ever
tried is stone milk crooks.

Lurainescence of Nitrogen.

{. 1t has been found that nitrogen, Wig
orously and spectroscopically pure, &C.
quires continuous luminescence,
during the electric discharge, and
therefore this phenomenon can no
longer be attributed 10 the prescence
of traces ef oxygen. In the pres
ence Of metallic yapors, such as those
Of mercury, sodium or potassium. says
the Scientific American, the phenone-
non is not produced owing to the nj
trogen's being attacked by the metal
lie vapors. forming combination OF
the metal with nitrogen. TIE pres
ence Of oxygen, which oxides the N IT
aalic vapors, .hinders their action on

From Gull to Steel.

Writing implements changed consid'
erably for the better during Sir Walter
Gilbey's long spell of life. Though
quill pens are still in use," he remarks
in his -Recollections of Seventy
Years." Il remember the time when
one seldom saw any other kind. Steel
pens in their early days were expen.
sive and i'll made, and few people used
them. The paper We had seventy
years ago may have reen partly to
blame; it had neither the substance
nor the surface we take as a matter OF
course nowadays. I remember when
envelopes came into use, and what a
boon they were considered after the
old system of closing letters with
waters or wax Before envelopes were
invented letters were always written
with an eye to the position of the
wafer or seal, q blank space being left
to correspond with the space where
this would be put on the outside, lest
