Interpretinu a Problem.

Apropos of the problem Of the great
est number that can be expressed by
three figures. L. Capitaine writes that
the figures 9s' may be interpreted In
two. different ways. They may mean
the ninth power Of the ninth power OF
8. or they may mean 9 raised to the
ninth power Of 9.
The ninth power Of is 3s7. 42o.4s9.
This number raised to the ninth power
is nothing so tremendous; any one
could do the necessary calculation with
a little time. as the result has only
about seventy-five figures. But IL we
accept the second interpretations
raised to the ninth power OF Git
means that we shall have to multiply
0 by itself 3s7. 42o.4s9 times. which is a
very different thing.

FIGHT ON CATTLE
PLAGUE IS WON

The slong, hard campaign waged by
the Secretary of Agriculture, Mr..
Houston, against the foot-and-mouth
disease among American cattle has
come to a successful end. Last Friday
Mr.. Houston lifted the few last re-
manning guarantees and-Festrictions
against the shipment of livestock on
account Of this disease.
The magnitude of the work of era
dication and control carried on by
farmers, shippers, and the State and
Federal governments is shown by the
fact that before controlled, the disease
had gained a temporary footing in %
states and the District of Columbia
The disease appeared and was con-
trolled in 269 different counties.
The huge value of the work done
in stamping out this disease in the
U. S. is shown from the results of this
plague in Denmark, where the disease
appeared at about the same time that
it broke out in the United States. The
area of Denmark is approximately
equal to that of the three New Eng
land states Massachusetts, Connceti-
cut and Rhode Island. It is, however.
been estimated that the losses in milk
in one year caused by the foot-and-
mouth disease have amounted to ap-
proxim ately one-third of the total cost
of Ara,dicating the pestil ence in %
stafes of this country. The Danish
authorities we're unable to carry out
their former policy of slaughter; and
were compelled to resort to such
measures of control as could be es-
tablished by guarantees and other re-
strictions.

TO FORM RIFLE CLUB

From a national defense standpoint
the training in rifle practice of the
unorganized militia is Of as vital i'm
portance as the training of the regu-
lar army and the national guard. The
volunteer who can hit what he shoots
at is 80 per cent, efficient as a soldier.
The United States government has
stored away in it's arsenals approx
mately 300, 0O0SsKrag magazine rifles,
model 1908, and 80, 100000 ball car
tridges for them. Uncle Sam VIII is

erica for use of members at small
arms practice. During the first quar-
ter of 1916 just ended. the ordinance
department issued to clubs, 316 rifles
and 1,438, 974 ball cartridges.
To teach the citizenry the use of
the modern. arm requires organization
of rifle clubs and small arms practice
under capable instructors Ten or
more citizens of the United States in
any town or county in or near which a
rifle range could be constructed are
eligible to organize a civilian rifle
club and affiliate with the National
Rifle Association Of America Blank
forms and copy zof bylaws prescribed
by the National Board for Promotion
of Rifle practice in the United States

The object of the National Rifle AS
ISOLATION is to encourage marksman-
ship throughout the United States,
particularly in the direction of quail
flying as finished marksmen those in
dividu who may be called upon to
serve in time of war; to encourage
competition in craftsmanship between
teams and individuals; to encourage
legislation for the establishment and
maintenance of ranges; to secure the
issue of military rifles and anmuni-
ton to those practicing on these
ranges and to create a public senti-
