Roller Skates

The earliest roller skate was patent
ed by Frenchman in 1919. About
1864 the craze for roller skating made
its first appearance in England. In
1866 the "rinking" fever broke out in
Australia and thence proceeded back
to England and then to the United
States. There has been an "intermit-
tent fever" ever since, breaking out at
intervals into the roller skating fad.

HEAVIER AND HIGHER RAILS
LehIoh Valley Orders Biggest Ever
Made for General Service on
American Steam Roads.

The Lehigh Valley railroad has or
dered $500 tons Of rails that will
weigh 1876 pounds to the yard. Ac-
cording to the Railway Age Gazette,
these will be the heaviest rails ever
made for general service on a steam
road in this country. They will be
seven inches high and six and one-half
inches wide at the base. which is an
inch higher and an inch wider than
the 110-pound rail now in general use.
Until about two years ago rails that
weighed 100 pounds to the yard were
the heaviest in general use. A year
ago the rail commission of the Ameri-
can Railway Engineering association
submitted sections for 100, 10, 120,
100. and 140-pound rails. but did not
recommend the last two sections,
since It did not consider that they
were then necessary. The Pennsyl-
vania railroad adopted a standard 1876
pound rail section year ago, and has
laid a large number Of the new rails
during the past season. Everywhere
throughout the country the tendency
is toward heavier rails. In 1897 only
20 per cent of all the rails produced
In that year weighed IS pounds q
yard or more. BY 1900 the percentage
had risen to 25; by 1905 to 46; by 1910
to So: and by 1914 to u.

LONG WAIT FOR RAILROAD
Pennsylvania County Finally to Have
Method Of Transportation That
Is Up to Date.

Milford, the capital of Pike county.
Pennsylvania. has subscribed the $780,
900 required to insure the building Of
an electric railroad from Port Jervis.
Milford has been patiently waiting
for railroad communication with the
outside world for nearly 70 years.
and attempts to secure it have cost
up to date nearly $1.OOO,OOO, with the
railroad no nearer built than it was
in the beginning.
The Milford and Matamoras Rail-
road company was chartered by the
Pennsylvania legislature in 1S48. 1t
was organized in 1854 upon the COM
pletion of the bridge across the Della
ware at Port Jervis, which the New
York & Erie Railroad company was
obliged to construct for the prospec-
tive local railroad at a cost Of $4,000.
The local company slept until 1870,
when it woke up and suspected that an
other company was about to build a
railroad up the valley and across that
bridge. and 1t made an attempt to be-
gin work on its railroad.
The company failed before more
than few hundred yards of grading
was completed, and the state OF Penn
sylvania was mulcted in the sum OF
$64,000 to pay for the work the con.
tractor was alleged to have done.

CBy L. A. WEAVER. Missouri College OF
Agriculture)
Forage crops furnish the best pos
sible way OF cheapening the cost OF
pork production, IL we can trust the
experience of the Missouri agricultural
experiment station and OF numerous
hog feeders. High-priced grain must
he used to a certain extent, but cheap
er crops may be substituted for part
of II. The Missouri station expert
ments show that the five pounds OF
grain required to produce a pound or
pork In dry lots may be reduced to
three pounds IL the hogs are running
on alfalfa, rape. clover, sorghum or
blue grass. The average return per
bushel of corn fed was 66 cents
bushel in case OF dry-lot feeding, as
compared with $l.10 when the hogs
fed were running on pasture.
Economy OF work and better effect
on the fertility of the soil are also
secured by hogging down, 80 the 40
per cent saving in grain feed does not
tell the whole story. Hogs on pas
ture nearly always drop the manure
where 1t will do some goO1, but this
is rarely the case II dry-lot feeding Is
practiced. The grain feed keeps the
animal In better health and free range

USE OF FUu-Bl00D
SlRES ON THE RANGE
Striking Argument in Favor Of
Registered Bulls Reported
From State Of Utah.

A communication from Washington.
d. c., gives q striking illustration of
the value of the use Of full-blood sires
on the range.
Two Utah ranchmen shipped their
steers to the same market on the
same day. Both grazed their stock
on the national forest range under
grasing permits. controlling the same
amount OF range per head. and paid
the same grasing fee. There was this
difference: One had used registered
bulls. tho other had not. The owner
Of the steers BY registered bulls &C
tuaily received so per head more for
hia steers on the market than the 9TH
- one received for the steers sired
by the nonregistered bulls.

fsyor OF the use OF registered bulls in

HORSE REALLY HAS
VERY LITTLE SENSE
Not Nearly So Intelligent as He
Is Often Pietured-"Jibbler"
Not Stupid.

(By GEORGE II. GLOVER. Colorado
Agricultural College. Fort Collins. Colo.)
Those who have had the least to do
with horses ascribe to them an intel
ligence which they really do not pos
sess. A horse knows about as much
when 1t is born as it ever does.
The majority of horses have very
little will power. they can be rendered
docile and tractable, they will work
at high pressure until exhausted.
never apparently learning the obvious
lesson that 1t is the willing horse
which suffers and that the more they
work the more they will get to do.
The so-called stupidity of the ass
and the provoking obstinacy of the
mule are not indications Of a lack Of
intelligence. On the contrary they
manifest q determination Of purpose
which II they could combine against
man would secure for them complete
freedom from civilization.
A horse that "jibs" Is one that has
learned to disobey; he has learned his
own strength and the comparative
powerlessness Of his master and he
has learned this through an exercise
of reason. The "jibbler" is an intel.
ligent and not q stupid horse.

gives him a chance to keep himself
more nearly free from lice and worms.
Among the forage crops tested for
pork production, alfalfa stands at the
very top because % it's long growing
season enables 1t to furnish both early
and late pasture, CD it Is drought re.
sistant and does very well in the dri'
est seasons and the driest parts OF
the growing season In Missouri, CD
it's high protein content makes 1t espe-
cially good for balancing the corn in
the ration.
Glover ranks next to alfalfa and
fits into corn-belt rotations much bet
ter. 1t Is similar in composition. but
does not furnish pasture as early or
keep as many hogs per acre.
Dwarf Essex rape is the best of the
crops that must be sown each year.
1t may be sown alone or broadcast at
the rate of six pounds per acre after
which q bushel Of oats per acre can
be drilled in. Sorghum is also to be
recommended and blue grass Is ex-
cellent, especially for early and late
pasture, but II is likely to take a
rest during a hot, dry summer. At
such times the green, succulent sor-
ghum will be very acceptable.
