Lodoinu-House Geometry.

Learning is one thing and wit is an
other, but that does not prevent them
from meeting at times in the sams
brain. One of the most amusing of
those jests, which IL takes a certain
amount of scholarship to make or en-
joy, was the collection of Euclidean
axioms that Prof. Stephen Leacock Of
McGill university wrote some years
ago for Truth. Here is one of the
cleverest of them: If there be two
boarders on the same fiat and the
amount Of side Of the one be equal to
the amount of side of the other, each

Much of this country is still COW

NATURE HAS STRANGE LAWS
Experiments With Tiny Animals and
Insects Reveal Interesting Data
on Color Inheritance.

Fruit flies, mice, guinea pigs, rats,
chickens, pigeons, fish and other small
animals now teach many facts about
natures laws to students of expert
mental breeding. knowledge of hered-
ity today is largely based on study of
inheritance of color, and many inter-
esting experiments with tiny animals
and insects are being carried on at the
University of Wisconsin.
Small animals are studied in this
research to shorten the time of expert
ment. More generations of guinea pigs
or mice can be studied in year than
could be studied in a decade If the
subjects were cattle. If pair Of fruit
flies are stoppered in a bottle, IA days
later hundreds will be swarming in
side. And, as some have white eyes
and some have red, much may be
learned from them about color inheri-
lance.
The direct relation of color to in
heritance is shown by the fact that If
red-eyed male fly and a white-eyed
female be mated, the sons will have
white eyes and the daughters will have
red eyes. On the other hand, if q
white-eyed male and a red-eyed female
be mated, all offspring will have red
eyes. This is the same principle on
which color blindness is inherited in
mankind. Similar experiments with
mice of various colors teach other facts
of color inheritance.

Paying for the War.

Christopher Turnor, an English econ
omist, writing in the London Chron-
icle of recent date, says the agricul-
tural resources of Britain can be so
developed as to practically pay the
cost Of the present war. Turnor notes
that In normal times the 100000
people of Britain yearly expend ST.
OO0,000,0OO for food supplies, of which
amount only half is produced at home,
the balance consisting Of fmpOrtations.
Meanwhile more than 100000 acres
of arabic British land is unproductive
of food supplies and thousands of pos
sible land workers are crowded into
cities, insufficiently employed and fed.
Only few British farms produce the
maximum Of possibility owing to tax
methods Of cultivation. Turnor argues
for some form of agricultural reor-
ganization and estimates that produc-
ton can be far mere than doubled,
making II possible to realize $1,000
100000 from this source to be- applied
TO the war debt.

JAPAN VERY BADLY CROWDED
Emigration Not Mere Convenience,
as With European Nations, but
an Immediate Necessity.

The area Of the United States is
nearly twenty-five times that Of ia
pan, but the population Of Japan is
almost six-tenths that Of the United
States. Within an area smaller than
California, Japan has a population Of
% times greater density. To every
square mile of the F1owery Kingdom
there is a population Of $40 souls
almost five times that of China. And
the inhabitants of Japan are increas-
ing at the rate Of $4,000 year. Such
are some Of the facts, substantiated
by works Of reference as authoritative
as the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Before the present war the problem
Of congested population in Europe
found solution either in emigration or
In colonization overseas; after the war
the problem will be less acute. Amer
lea opened its doors to Europe-and
besides this outlet, all the great Euro
pean powers had colonies In other
hemispheres.
But whereas with European nations,
emigration was a convenience, with
Japan 1t is a growing and immediate
necessity. In all Pan-America, with
the exception of Mexico, Asiatics are
unwelcome. Australia has shut her
doors against Asiatic emigration. In
northern China there are large tracts
of land not so thickly populated, but
the European world holds Jealous in.

MOBILIZE $4,000
STATE MILITIA
Uncle Sans New Army Will Go
Abroad by First of
October.
BUSY SECURING TRANSPORTS
Great Fleet, Sufficient to Carry the
Forces, Together With All Their
Arms and Equipment viii
Be Ready.

Washington, July 16.-The govern
ment took the first step to mobilize an
army of million men. Approximately
125,OOO National Guardsmen were mo-
bilized under an executive order in II
states. They comprise the first incre-
ment of the militia to be drawn into
the federal service.
They will be held at their state
camps for several weeks, and then will
be sent to mobilization camps in the
South. There they will be given a short
period of intensive training and will
be sent to France.
In France by October I.
1t will be not later than October !
before the majority Of the men or.
dered out will be in France.
The army war college has finished
plans for the work which the men will
be given. 1t has laid out complete
program for their use in the war. This
program includes the exact time they
will be held In mobilization camps and
the dates on which they will be sent
overseas.
Meanwhile the war and navy depart
ments are busy securing transports for
the men. 1t is expected that q great
feet, sufficient to carry the forces the
war college has decided upon, together
with all their arms and equipment, will
be ready on the appointed dates.
The forces ordered are only the first
of three increments.
Others will follow on July 25 and
August s. On the latter date the entire
militia establishment will be drafted
into the federal service and will stand
on the same plane as the regular army
The troops assembled are:
New York, which will go to Spartan.
burg, S. c.; Pennsylvania, which will
camp at Augusta; Ohio and West Vir
ginia, to Montgomery, Ala. Michigan
and Wisconsin, to Waco. Tex; Iowa
Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota
and South Dakota, to Deming. N. M.
May Employ Allies Basis.
Each camp will accommodate com.
plete division. In the American army
division is about 10000 men. After
the troops are in camp there is a pos.
sbility that the divisions will be reor.
ganized on the European basis Of 49,.
600 to 10000 men. Under this plan the
New York guard would make two di.
visions. But each camp would still have
10000 men.
If the army is reorganized on the
number of vacancies will be created in
higher ranks. Double the number OF
brigadier generals now required would
be needed, and there would be q NOV.
ing up all through the army.
AS soon as the troops are in camp
at least fourteen brigadier generals
will be required at any rate. Only
two states-New York and Illinois
have full guard divisions with their
own brigadier generals.

HAWAIIANS REAL PATRIOTS
Islands Furnished 1000 Men in Excess
of Number Asked For.

Washington, July 16.-Explanation
today of the quota allotment for the
selective draft army, as announced
yesterday, shows that the territory of
Hawaii stands in class by itself
among the states and territories, hav-
ing already furnished nearly 1000 men
as volunteers in excess of the number
required from the islands to fill up the
first army. Every other state or terri
tory has been benefited accordingly by
a reduction of it's net quota. This ac-
counts for the adjustment" factor in
cluded in the tables fixing the quotas
given out yesterday, and also for the
fact that no quota is given to Hawaii,
and that the territory will not be re-
quired to furnish any men whatever
under the presidents call for 687,OOO
to fill up the regulars and National
Guard and to make up the first 100000
of the national army.

Service Is Weakening.

torpedo supply is weakening; the tor

speed since the outset Of the war, and
hence has deterioted in accuracy of

The statement adds.
"The Germans are being so pressed
for time in constructing torpedoes that
they can no longer maintain their
speed and their accuracy Of fire. It
takes normally six months to con-
struct a torpedo and it costs many
thousand dollars. There is also a
chance of Germany running short in
