One-Man Mills.
n Hap:ood in I1es!ie's.

Norman ltapSood IN Leslie S.
The one-man flour mill is one of the
stirring developments of the day. 1t is
sign pointing toward the return of
individual business. The one-man -four
mill, producing twenty-five to fifty bar
rels of flour day, is essentially the
old grist mill back again. When steam
was harnessed to do the heavy work OF
mankind and machinery was invented
there was. in my opinion. mighty
benefit conferred on the majority OF
toilers. Not everybody thinks SO. but
those who do not are in the main, / be-
lieye those who have made no close
study Of history from the point of view
of the lives of the majority. One who
realizes wildly the existence of an ag-
ricultural laborer before steam was in
vited to keep man alive. and compares
it with the shorter hours. the better
clothing. the more varied diet, the
books, the newspapers. the schools. the
travel that mark the life Of the work.
inSman today. must think that progress
has been far-reaching, much more for
the mass than for the educated minor
ity But the Industrial era. with its vast
gain, has its drawbacks also. Just az
Prussia has carried too far the con-
centration of state power. business
combination in this country and else
where have carried concentration of in
dustrial power to the point where ii is
widely held to be a danger. Regulation
has been one answer. 1t has been APP
piled to railroads and insurance COM
panies and is about to be applied to the
big packers, who control so per cent
of our food supply. But the most con-
elusive answer would be the economic
success of the small unit. That is why
mill goes to the essence of civiliza-
ton.

MONKEY PSYCHOLOGY.
Why They Use Their Fists Instead

ar Science Monthly.

From the Popular Science Monthly.
When next you go to the Zoo watch
the monkeys use their hands. Notice
how they seize things with their fists.
They do not use their finger-end as We
do. While the higher monkeys. such as
eorillas and chimpanzees, may be
taught to use their fingers. they never
learn to use them as easily as do hui
man beings.

hooks with which 1t grasps the
branches. The thumb is not brought
into play. Some South American mon
keys have lost the thumb through dis
use; all that is left Of it is indicated by
a little lump under the skin.
In the higher monkeys the wrist Is
built like yours. 1t has the same num-
never used his wrist. and SO it has lost
the flexibility. The monkey can use its
feet to better advantage than its hands.
Man, on the other hand. has used his
feet so long simply for the purpose OF
walking that he would experience con-
siderable difficulty in using them as he
uses his hands. Yet it is amazing how
as he does his fingers. II you don't be-
lieve this. just try to write with your
toes. At first the letters will be very
large and awkward. But with little
practice you will hnd that you can
write with your foot more easily than
with your left hand, il you are nat
urally right tina nded. 1t is an attractive
exercise with which to while away an
hour. We know you will try the ex-
