three-quarters OF a million dollars was

RUNNING THE RHEA.


For the person who desires .
unique form of sport running the
rhea" in southern Patagonia is rec
commended. The rhea is a member
Of the ostrich family, but somewhat
smaller. 1t runs with the swiftness
of a greyhound or a fast horse and
has a knack of doubling on its
track, which often serves it In elud-
ing its pursuers. The natives in
hunting it use horses, dogs and the
bola. The dogs course after the
fleeing bird in full cry, while the
hunters follow after at top speed,
prepared to throw the bola if op-
portunity offers.

The foregoing statement appears IN

Of the remainder would stay within the
state. The increase I'm land values
would be almost too great to estimate

From the results obtained In the pro-
duction OF beet sugar in Adams county
and surrounding sections and from
tests in growing beets in other parts
Of the state, which show that Indiana
can produce as high q grade Of sugar
beets as any state in the country, there
Is no doubt that If the policy Of grow
ing within the United States the sugar
to feed the American people continues
to receive the encouragement OF the
federal government as it has IN the
past fifteen years, Indiana will take q
leading part In the sugar beet industry
and through 1t will add millions Of dol
lars to her annual wealth. That the
upbuilding Of this industry Is impor-
tant to the consumers as we'll as to the
producers Of the state was shown plain
ly enough In 1911 when the price OF
sugar, which had gone skyrocketng up
to 10 cents pound and was being held

In the Philosophical Transactions
of the Royal Society of London for
1889 is printed a letter, written in
1851, in which the Rev. John Clay
tor details a series Of experiments
he made in distilling coal in a re-
tort, showing not only that he had
observed the infamnable gases
evolved, bat that he had collected
and stored them for some time in
bladders. In rs. Lord Dundona,d
made gas from coal, with which he
lighted the hall of Cdiross abbey.
In 1892 Robert Murdoch began the
experiments which resulted in the
establishment of coal gas "a IN illu-
minating agent. In 1877 he public
ly showed the system he had ma
tured, and in l.9S, being employed
in the factory OF Boultol & Watt,
Birmingham, he fitted up al appa-
ratus for The manufacture Il gas

STRETCH YOURSELF.
Do IL the First Thing After You Wake
In the Morning.

IN the morning.
a splendid thing for the body is
stretching. When you first wake
up in the morning, take a good, long
stretch. Stretch the hands as far
out sideways as possible. Then
stretch them over the head as far as
you can reach, and at the same time
stretch the feet downward as far as
you can Raise the feet and stretch
upward just as high as you can, and
then lower the feet and legs very
slowly
When you get out of bed, raise
your arms over your head, and,
standing on tiptoe, see how near you
can reach the ceiling. Then walk
about the room while in this posi-
ton. Stand on the right foot and
stretch the right arm forward and
upward as high as you can, while at
the same time the left foot is raised
from the floor and stretched out
ward, and the left hand is stretched
backward and downward. This is q
fine exercise for the whole body and
is especially good for the waist and
hips, making them firm ard strong.
Standing on the left foot this eIer-
else can be reversed.
If you have been sitting In the
same position for a long time read
ing, studying, writing or sewing and
the muscles have become tired and
cramped, the best thing to do is to
get up and stretch. Stretch the
arms upward and outward and for
ward and backward Lift the shoul-
ders as high as you can and drop
them. Expand the chest and
breathe deeply, Of, sitting in the
chair, stretch the he ands upward, lift
TIE feet from the floor and stretch
them forward as far as possible,
any way SO you give the muscles a
good, vigorous stretch.
Wen one Is very tired, there s
nothing more restful than stretch
ing ihe muscles and then relaxing.
