Why They Walk In Circles.

why tney walk IN CHctees
%If you were lost in "a desert or IN 0
forest and tried to find. your way out
says well known scientist. "you
would be almost sure to walk In a
circle" This well known fact is due
to a slight inequality in the length of
the legs. Careful measurements Of a
series Of skeletons have shown that
only 10 per cent had the lower limbs
equal In length, 35 per cent had the
right limb longer than the left, while
In 65 per cent the left limb was the
longer.
The result of one limb being longer
than the other will naturally be that a
person win unconsciously take longer
step with the longer limb. and conse-
Quently will trend to the right or left,
according as the left or right leg is the
longer. The left leg being more fire.
Quently the longer, the inclination
should take place more frequently to
the right than to the left, and this con-
clusion is quite borne out by Observa-
tons made on a number of persons
when walking blindfOlded. The in
equality in the length of limb is not
confined to any sex or race, but seems
to be universal In all respects.

Impressions of the First Week Of the
su1nmr School for Rural Mine

o
[By DR.. T. F. Dixon, Frederick MIDI
About one-half of our school work
is over and we take moment to
gather up the impressions that have
been made.
First of all is the impression of
the oneness of our job. We are
from all sorts of churches, but we
are all facing the same problems and
the school makes us realize this as
we possibly never have before. Here
we have felt no difference because of
creed, but have been a unit in the
work before us.
A next impression is of the great
value of the College of Agriculture
to the people of the State. There
seems to be somebody at the college
who knows anything that the farmer
can possibly want or need to know
and we are wondering why more
farmers do not send in their prob
lens for solution.
Still another impression is of the
great importance of the Country
Parish in the sum total of the work
and success of the Church at large.
There are more churches in the
country than in the city. The bone
and sinew of the city church is born
and raised in the country church,
the vast majority of the recruits for
the ranks of the ministry come from
the Country Church.
We are also impressed with the
great and real opportunity and real
responsibility of the Country Church
to be the leader in all forms of COM
munity betterment The church and
the school are usually the only social
centers in a country neighborhood.
They must set the pace for advance
ment or none will be attained, and
by setting it unitedly they can much
more easily and completely attain
their own specific ends.
The particularly strong impression
of the Ministerial School at the
Agricultural College is the vital con-
nection between physical and social
conditions in the country and the
success of the Church in the coun-
try. Better farms, better houses,
better schools, better roads are as
important to the work of the church
as better Sunday Schools and better
Sermons. In all these the min
lister ought to be the leader or at
least the inspirer. At our school we
are learning what we ought to be to
the community and how to be it.
The School is pre-eminently a
school of methods, it has given us
inspiration, it has given us principles,
but best of all, it has given us prac-
tical programs that can be carried
out in our actual work., and which
we believe will be used to the great
betterment of the Country Church.

Lum's Peaches.

We have large crop of fine peaches
and we want to sell as many as possible
right here at the orchard. Saves time
and expense that way, and we will give
you the benefit of this saving.
These peaches are produced by
modern orchard methods, are large in
size, highly colored and of delicious
flavor. Our patrons of last year will
need no reminder of their high quality.
Our farm is easily accessible to auto
mobiles and wagons. The first variety
ripens about August Ist and from then
until September 10th we will have a
constant supply.

Railroad Grade Crossings.

Based on the number of accidents
at crossings on one of the principal
railroads of this country, the figures
covering period of eighteen
months, we find the following inter-
esting statistics:
Thirty out of each hundred per-
sons killed or injured were on foot
pedestrians.
Fifty-seven out of each hundred
killed or injured were pedestrians.
Fifteen out of each hundred killed
or injured were riding in automo-
biles.
Fifty-five out of each hundred
were riding in or using other con-
veyances.
Only about one-half of one per
lcent of the fatalities were to children
under twelve years of age.
Sixty-two of each hundred had an
unobstructed view of approaching
| trains.
Twenty-six out of each hundred
thad a partially obstructed view.
Fifty-eight out of each hundred
were either at fault themselves. or
were injured through some fault of
the person with whom they were
driving.
Forty-three persons out of each
hundred fatally injured were struck
while using crossings unprotected by
dagmen or otherwise. In other
words, while protected crossings are
not as numerous as unprotected
ones, yet numerically and compar-
atively more persons are killed at
protected crossings.
People are killed at railroad cross
ings in many ways other than being
struck by trains. For instance, two
out ef each hundred on account of
motor engines "going dead" at the
wrong moment, over thirteen out of
each hundred on account of horses
becoming frightened, three out of
each hundred on account of defective
planking or paving on the road way
or sidewalk. The truth of the mat
ter is that 40 per cent out of each
hundred persons killed or injured at
crossings are due to attendant
causes, not to the mere fact of the
existence of the crossings.
To abolish grade crossings as fast
as financial conditions permit is the
purpose of the railroads, but exper-
ience shows that even where under
grade or over-grade crossings, or
gates and watchman are provided
at great expense of labor and money.
accidents to persons still continue.
This only goes to prove that the
human element is a large factor in
all accident cases, and, that a very
large majority of accidents can be
prevented by the exercise of care on
the part of the individual traveller
on the highway. Better be careful
than crippled; better be safe than
sorry; are good maxims to follow
If necessity for caution were as in
structive for him to step aside from
snake in the road, or carefully
avoid crossing a field if there happen
ed to be bull in it, life and limb
would be increasingly conserved.
Let the public get the Safety
habit. Then, not only will they
Stop, Look and Listen, but they will
Stop, Look, Listen and reflect.

peciallv useful in homes where there

made by using 2 or A gallon TIN
bucket. A hole was punched In the
bottom and a piece OF pipe about

opening. A piece of rubber hose
to 6 feet long was attached to this
and a sprayer from the watering can
or nozzle placed on the end a
rope was tied to the handle of the
bucket and run through staple
which was driven in the joist be-
side the window SASH making a pull
ley by which the bucket could be
raised or lowered to suit the con-

shower. A hook was placed below
this staple so that the rope could be
fastened to hold the bucket in place
and a clothespin used over the rub

large tin tub was placed underneath
to stand in. The cost was very
small.

Washington, ID. G. May 4.--The
condition OF the apple market is a
matter of grave concern to both the
growers and dealers all over the
country. The report of cold storage
holdings OF apples on April /, re-
Gently issued by the U. s. Depart
ment OF Agriculture, gives some fig
ures which probably will cause all
dealers interested in the crop to
speed up the movement Of this fruit
in a most vigorous way. This report
which was compiled In the Office of
Markets and Rural Organization,
shows that on the first of the pres
ent month there were approximately
A per cent more apples in cold stor.
age than at the same date one year
ago, and the season OF 1914.15 was
one Of unusually heavy production.
Figures from APT storages indicate
that nearly 33 per cent of the apples
which we're placed in cold storage by
December /, 1915, were still there on
April / waiting to be consumed.
Hope that this will be a backward
spring is general among apple deal
ers, for as long as cold days continue
a free movement of the fruit is more
certain. However, let warm wealth
er come to stay and, judging by ex.
periences OF the past, apple sales are
very likely to decrease rapidly.
Doubtless there are several rea-
sons for the present conditions. The
fact that the past seasons CONNER.
cial crop was considerably smaller
than that OF year ago led to eX.
pectation on the part of growers and
dealers alike. last fall, that the pros.
