STARTING WITH LIVE STOCK
Gradins-Up Method Recommended as
Best Beainnina-Use Best Pure
Bred Sire Obtainable.

The average farmer starting into
the live stock business is not in shape
financially to purchase purebred stock
and conduct the business the way ii
should be. Purebred breeders should
not try to set men up in the breeding
business who have but very little
money and practically no experience.
An amateur, starting under such con-
ditions, is almost sure to fail and in
stead of being a booster for better live
stock, curses the breed that lost him
money and the purebred breeders in
general.
Those without considerable expert
ence and some capital, wishing to start
in the live stock business, will find
the grading-up method the best in
use.
Grading up a herd by the use of a
purebred sire is the safest beginning

MOST VALUABLE FARM CROPS
Trouble Experienced In Growing Clio
YER, Alfalfa, Peas, Etc, Where
Not Grown Before.

Legume crops (clover, alfalfa, peas,
etc. are among the most valuable Of
farm crops. Trouble is experienced
at times, however, in growing them
in new agricultural districts or re-
gions where legumes have not been
grown before. This difficulty ofttimes
is due to the absence of the necessary
tubercle bacteria from the soil In
question. The practice should be fol
lowed, therefore, of inoculating the
soil or seed when any of these crops
are grown upon ground which has
never grown the crop before.
This incubation may be made by
the use of soil from a feld in which
the legume has grown. This soil
should be obtained from the old
legume field and distributed over the
field to be sown in legumes at the
rate of approximately 300 pounds per
acre, and at once narrowed or disked
in. This operation should take place
during the morning or evening or
upon a cloudy day, as the intense sun
light destroys the bacteria. Care
should be exercised In making this
transfer of soil to get it from fields
which are not infested with weeds.
Should such soil not be available
DR.. Ira d. Cardiff, director and bot
anist of the Washington agricultural
experiment station, states that the
next best method Of procedure is to
use a pure culture of bacteria which
may be mixed with the seed before II
is sown.

LIFE ON SWAN ISLAND.
Probably the Worlds Most Isolated
Wireless Station.

On Swan island, In the Caribbean
sea, is situated what is probably the
most isolated wireless station in the
world. The station crew is made up

cook. a machinist and three laborers.
No women are permitted to land on
the island. Men who express will
Ingness to 90 to Swan island are oblig-

A CRUSH OF WORLDS.
How Our Solar System May End and
New One De Born.

New One De Born.
The whole of the present solar sys-
TEN is ultimately to fail into the sun,
causing an explosion that may result
In new solar system. Such Is the
,heo;y pat forward by Professor Philip
Fauh. well known astronomer,
whore reputation has rested principally
upcn Iii, researches into the conditions
OH thr moon.
Tie novel feature Of DR.. Fuuths the
ory Is that it is based upon the suppo-
sition that Il great part Of the known
solar system. including especially the
planets Jupiter, Uranus and Saturn, are
not composed Of mineral matter at all,
but are tremendous masses Of Ice or
balls of ice surrounding a mineral ker-
mel. Furthermore, lie declares, part
of what Is now known as the Milky
way is not mineral or gaseous, but "a
ring Of ice dust" masses Of particles
of ice suspended in space, the other
planets receiving constant addition
to their Ice mass from this source.
Professor Fautll declares that the
world already at some remote periods
has had n similar experience, resulting
in the death of nearly all animate ma
ture, and that all species Of life as we
know 1t have arisen since them Even
tually the planets swinging through
their narrow orbits will fall into the
sun, causing a new explosion and per-
haps the birth of a new solar system,
but for thousands Of years before that
time, all life, either on earth or else
where, will have Disappeared Kansas

IL you wanted to 60 from the Pana'

Nearly everybody would answer In

The great circle" does 1t. Its inhu-

At West Point was old Joe. the he.
gro cadet hair cutter, He was never
known to smile or to dcyate from

were obliged to have their hair cut by
him. This was great worry to Whis-
tier, who disliked to part with his pref
ty locks, 50 he would try by cajolcry
and lattery to have Joe let up little
on the length Of bis hair. But In this
he was never successful. Joe would
stop his shears In the midst of re.
monstrance and say, "Mr. Whistler, do
you want me to cut your hair accord
ing to regulations or not?" OF course
this put an end to the argument, and
Whistler would come back to our
rooms, look In the glass and swear
about Joe.
He loved frankness, truth and honor.
Cards were forbidden in cadet bar
racks, but we had pack, and one

had been playing, and the cards lay
carelessly inside, when we were sur
prised by the entrance Of the inspect
