SPORT ONLY FOR STRENUOUS
!Iarpooning Devilfish Differs Some- Vfhat From Pastime So Much Be-
 loved by Ordinary Fishermen.

The extraordinary shape, huge size, md vast power of the big devilfish, or rlanta, give him an evil reputation, which is heightened by his black color ing. A queer peculiarity of this col bring is that the black pigment comes off on anything touching it. Kneeling on one of the devilfish when it was drawn up on the sand I arose with my knee completely blackened. The skin is not only very tough, but is also very rough, being covered, like that of an old shark, with dermal denticles which Scarify the skin if a naked arm or leg is drawn across it. The big mouth is practically toothless, entirely so as re- gards the upper jaw, while the lower jaw has a small dental plate which differs in the two sexes. In spite of it's size the manta is in no way dan- gerous to man unless attacked; but when harpooned it's furious energy, tenacity of life and enormous strength render it formidable; for it can easily smash or overturn boat which is clumsily handled, and if the ropes foul an accident is apt to occur.-From +'Harpooning Devilfish," by Theodore Roosevelt, in Scribner's Magazine.

Savino Czar's Aurochs.

Kartsotf, former master of the hunt for Emperor Nicholas, who now ad- ministers the formerly imperial do- mains at Gatchina, the residence of the Dowager Empress Marie, has taken measures to prevent the destruction of seven surviving aurochs, the only Flu ropean bison now known with certain ty to exist in Russia. Until lately q large herd was maintained in Nicholas .vast forest at Bieloviesh, White Rus fasia, ten from which were sent to iGatchina before the war. When the ] Germans occupied Bieloviesh they ikilled and canned hundreds of aurochs. X 1t is not known if any survive at Bic
 oviesh, but before the killing two were presented to the Stockholm Skan- sen park. After the revolution, the
 fatchina populace organized an au- fochs' hunt, considering the beasts '"imperial" and therefore fair game. They killed three. M. Kartsoff's meas Vres aim at preserving the remainder.

ONE CAN BE TOO HUMBLE
Always We'll to Remember the World Is Apt to Take Man at His
 Own Value.

Humility is called {. virtua. It is so Gh,ess carried too far, .s man is usually taken at his own value If he makes too little of himself, he is like ly to be thought of little worth. The unduly humble man will lack the strength of character needed for sue cess. He will have little inflence in so- clety and will not be fitted to hold re- sponsible positions. While too great opinion of ones self stands in the way of progress, too great humility is worse. Conceit receives many knocks in life and may be taken out of q man; too much humility seldom re- ceives tse needed encouragement Con- ceit in child is soon corrected, when he comes to mingling with other chill dren in schools. Too great humility gives his schoolmates a chance to put upon him and treat him as an inferior "a chance which will seldom be neg iected. A child may become crippled in spirit for life in this way. Even teachers sometimes fail to see what is the trouble with the child and to give him the encouragement he needs. Be- ware of breaking down child's self confidence. 1rreparable injury may thus be done him. Train him to feel that he is of value and is able to do what there is for him to do. Think well of yourself if you would have others think well of you.-Milwaukee Journal.

REPEAL OF SUGAR CERTIFICATE
 PLAN

Our Washington Office advises that owing to congestion of sugar stocks in beet and Louisiana cane producing districts, it is necessary to relieve the situation immediately. Effective De- cember 1st, the certificating p.an gov erning the purchasing anc saie oL these sugars in Arkansas by manufac- turers and dealers is rescinded. All dealers inN&ugar are now permitted to buy sugar aecording to their require ments and demands without restrict ions.
 The elimination of the certificating plan does not change the zoning re- strictions as previously fixec by the Sugar Division at Washington. That is the boundaries of the beet and cane sugar territory, are not changed.
 After December 1st, all ceaiers, wholesale anl retail, manufacturers hotels, bakers, etc., may DuJ sugar without certificates to meet their nor nal needs.
 Wholesale grocers will pyease in form their trade Immediately. Both wholesale and retail grocers gre re- uuested to urge their trade cnG the public ;n general not to waste sugar. but to use only the quantities. naces- sary for their full requirements ;.s De- to ath gurated.
 If our European allies increase their rer capita allowance 0 sugar, '. my be necessary tor the United States to exrort sugar to them. If so, we ;aasis : the reserve stock to be ready. Inform everybody that formal legas rsstric- lions on sugar have been removed, but that we should still practice the yaiu- able lesson of conservation a..c ecou- omy in the consumption of sugar, the same ss on every other commodity or eood. TO Waste is sin; to save is 10 serve; to serve is Divine.''

 S!ashes Russ Alphsbet.

Russian Minister of Education Man. uiloff is ruthlessly cleansing the Cyrillic alphabet of opportunities. By decree he has abolished the specific Russian letter "yat," confusion of which with "e" is one of the woes of schooling, abolished also the use in Russian of the Greek "theta," former. ly used indiscriminately with "phi," and finally abolished the 'hard sign" placed after cOnsOnants.
 The reforms excite mixed feelings. Children and utilitarians rejoice, but the novelist. Leonid Andreyeff, says that "such changes rob our classics of their traditional form and atmosphere. We feel we are reading dialect"

kaffirs In France,

Somewhere in France there is a large camp of Kaffirs," says a corre- spondent of the Spectator. "When ! first saw them, my British ignorance and prejudice made me jump to the conclusion that they were the scum from the mines of South Africa. To my utter astonishment, however, l have since discovered that 80 per cent of these blacks (Basutos and Zulus) are the product of our mission schools.
 "They are Christian men-have their own native Padre-and thirty or forty of them knew all about Donald Hankey, and were quite familiar with his book. "A Student in Arms! There may be white camps where the same may be said of them, but I haven't come across them yet"

MORE LEeuMEs-MoRE CORN

mOh6 OO0sN' By w. c. Lassetter, Director Agricul-
 tural Extension Division, University of Arkansas.
 The growth of cowpeas, soy beans and clovers this year is a necessity. This practice will furnish more feed for the livestock and help enrich the soil, thereby insuring greater yields of corn and cotton on same ground pext year.
 Every Acre of Corn Must Do Double
 Duty This Tear.
 Not only is it important to set aside few cotton acres for these neces. sary feed producing and soil building crops this year, but every acre devot- ed to corn should do double duty. and COW peas. soy beans and peanuts should be planted in the rows with the corn at corn planting time or at corn thinning time or later. These crops may be planted in rows between the corn rows and if planted so as not to interfere with thescultivation will not reduce the yield of corn.
 If your land is infested with Nema. todes or infected with cotton wilt. plant none but the Iron or BraD- ham variety of COW peas Be sure to plan for these crops and secure your supply of seed early. Remember, soy beans can be put in on almost any kind of soil from April to July 1 and COW peas can be put on all soils if planted from May to July 1. To SOW these crops, use half bushel if planted in rows and one and one-half bushels for broad-casting. To handle peanuts successfully remember they will do best planted in sandy soil from May l to July 1, seeding at the rate of about one and one-half bushels (unshelled) to the acre. Everyone should also have sorghum, which should be plant. ed from April to July l. This crop can be grown on any soil and from one and one-half to two bushels of seed are necessary in broad casting.
