SAM0ANS INITIATE EUROPE
They Wear Civilized Clothing and

TIE natives Of Samoa are exhibiting
. marked inclination to initiate Euro
pean manners. The beautiful siapos,
hallowed by age-long usage, are dis
appearing more and more, their places
being taken by imported cloth. Wom-
en- and girls like to put on greater
quantities of European wearing ap-
parel.
In the vicinity Of Apia native Sa-
moan house and kitchen utensils have
been replaced BY European articles Of
less worth. New foods are being IN
troduced. Instead of taro, bananas
and yams, the natives now eat rice,
biscuits and bread, and even drink
coffee In the morning. The new foods
however have but limited number OF
consumers at present.
The native huts were formerly COW
cred with matches Of sugar cane. In
sects have destroyed the sugar-cape
plantations, and the natives now cover
their dwellings with corrugated iron,
which gives them much less protection
against the sun during the day and
against the cold at night. The Samo-
an house is disappearing, too, and its
place is being taken by square build
ings Of American pine.
The total native population Of the
Samoan group is about $4,000. There
IRE $500 whites and half-castes.

HAVE BEES COLOR SENSE7
Scientists Say Their SeIectior>ls AZ
Fastidious az Woman's-Some
Interesting Experiments.

A bee Is as fastidious as q woman
in its selection of colors. Bees love
flowers, not only for their honey but
for their color. Roses are not white
and pink, and violets purple merely
for your pleasure. They have these
attractive frocks, as well as their de.
licious perfumes, to attract the bees
The yellow dust of the flowers is
the pollen. It is sometimes sent from
flower to flower by the wind, but it is
usually carried by the bees. There
fore, flowers have to wear their most
pleasing colors to WOO and win these
messengers of life and love. This is
not mere poetic fancy, for q number
Of able scientists have experimental
at different times to find what colors
bees prefer, and have placed their
preferences in this order: Blue, green.
orange, plain red, white and yellow.
II blue is the bees favorite color,
why is it that there are 30 few blue
flowers? Scientists answer that all
blue flowers have descended from
green ancestors. They have passed
through stages Of white or yellow and
generally red before becoming blue.
Violets are white and violet, though
yellow in their original color. For
the same reason there are pink, white.
red and yellow roses. They have all
passed through the different stages Of
color development. It is commonly
supposed that blue flowers are de-
scended from white or yellow ances-
tors.

MEASURING BULLET SPEED
Scientists Use Delicate Apparatus to
Make Calculations Covering Twenty
Miles Minute.

How fast does bullet travel? The
highest velocity ever given to a can
non ball is 1926 feet per second. This
is equal to a mile in little moro than
three seconds, or nearly twenty miles
a minute.
A rife bullet does not travel SO fast
as cannon ball, the average rate be-
ing 1,275 feet per second. This mat
ter of speed is tested in very inter
esting way.
A long wooden shed is used. in
which distance Of exactly 100 feet
has been carefully marked OF. At each
end of this space is stand something
like target, with a large circular
opening where the bulls eye should
be. Across each opening is stretched
a small electric wire, connected with a
delicate instrument in another room.
The rifle from which the firing is
done is so aimed that the bullet which
flies from it cuts both wires. Obvi-
ously, the difference in time between
the cutting of the two wires marks
the speed Of the bullet through that.
When the first wire is cut an cleo
trio current is broken and a rod falls,
moving pointer on slide in its de-
scent. The breaking Of the second
wire acts in the same manner on an.
other set of rods, slides and pointers
The difference in the marks made
by the pointers on the slides makes II
possible to estimate the difference in
their time Of falling, and from these
calculations accurate figures as &c
speed are obtained.

How Rainfall Affects Crops.

The enormous value of rainfall to
the agriculturist is set forth by e. J..
Cragoe In the Journal Of Geography.
He calculates that the increase in the
wheat crop In the Dakotas, California.
Washington, Kansas and Nebraska for
each inch Of rainfall above four
inches in May and June represents a
value Of about s15,000,000. The fig
ures for corn are more impressive;
one inch Of rainfall above three inches
In July tn Indiana, Illinois, Kansas,
Iowa, Ohio and Nebraska, increases
the value Of the crop by $4,000, 900.
Moreover, 1t was found that when the
July rainfall averaged less than "a
inches the yield of corn averaged ten
bushels less to the acre than when 1t
was more than "a inches. This rep
resents an increased value of about
$3.50. 100000.
