Benefit OF CHORAL SINGING
EquaIizes Men, Creates Spirit Of Broth
erhood and Takes Mind of Busi-
ness, Asserts Professor.

Music gives utterance to something
within one which can never find ex-
preston in words or acts, in the opln-
ion Of A. Il. Westbrook, director Of
music In the Kansas State Agricul-
tural college. Choral singing Is of
great benefit to a community.
Music Is of great advantage to
men," said Professor Westbrook. at
equalizes them, creating spirit Of
brotherhood, and takes their minds off
business. 1t gives them a new and
different insight, which is accomplished
not by singing the common popular
songs, but by really good music that
can be appreciated
'The value of music In bringing to-
gether socially disorganized communi-
ties has never been fully realized BY
choral singing, people In any one To-
cality can be brought into certain SYM
pathy with one another. Wherever
there Is a neighborhood there Is a
chance for singing. A leader is need
ed who will select only the best music.
Where neighboring groups have been
singing the same kind of good music
they will find in any large community
gathering that they have something in
common and will be ready to take part
in choral singing on an even larger
scale.
'If an orchestra playing Beethoven
played In community unused to such
music, there would break forth from
the audience an unrestrained applause
such as comes only from people who
are really hungry for good music-the
kind of music that community musical
societies will bring to them"

GOOD WINTER HORSE FORAGE
Corn Slower Has Practically Same
Feeding Value as Timothy Hay
Alfalfa Is Favored.

Dy A. A. AGEE, New Jersey Experiment
Station)
With choice timothy hay quoted ut
the present price of $24 to $50 ton,
and with Inferior grades at not less
than $40 Il ton, other roughages
should be substituted for wintering
horses. Good corn slower (corn fod
der minus the ears) has practically the
same feeding value as timothy hay aud
may be fed to horses with about the
same results during the winter months.
Alfalfa and clover are legume hays
having still higher feeding value
than timothy, particularly in their
content of protein. The best grade Of
alfalfa usually sells at considerably
less on the market than timothy hay,
making 1t more economical rough
age on the farm. Alfalfa and clover
when fed as the only roughage have
been known to cause an overexertion
of the kidneys because of the high nj.
trogen content. However, this oh Jec.
ton is practically done away with by
substituting corn stover. straw or tim
othy for a part of the roughage. Horses
on heavy work need approximately a
pound of grain daily for each hundred
pounds of live weight.

MADE USE OF STEAM POWER
With Its Possibilities, but Did
Not Develop Them.

a real curiosity in the United States
patent Office is Il working model of the
first steam engine, built by clever
inventor named Hero century and
half before Christ was born.
y modern engineer would call it a
steam reaction turbine. 1t consists of
a spherical vessel pivoted on an axis
and supplied with steam through one
of the pivots. The steam escapes
through bent pipes In opposite drec-
tions, thus causing the globe to re-
volve.
Hero was the first steam engineer.
Having hit upon the idea that the ex-
pnnsiye energy of steam could be used
for power, he developed number OF
devices for its mechanical employ
ment.
One of them was hollow altar, be-
meath which fire was built. Under
the altar was vessel containing wa
ter. The latter, converted into steam,
opened the temple doors by pressure
upon pair of vertical posts on which
ed, the doors closed automatically
The ancients 1000 years and more
ago used steam power for turning spits
and various other unimportant pur-
poses. But IL does not seem to have
occurred to them that this source OF
energy might he made available for
mechanical utilization OF q large scale.

IMPROVING THE BAD SPOTS
Certain Small Ruts That Are Usually
Wet and Soft Determine Load
Farmer Can Carry.

The worst holes in the road always
determine the load the farmer can
market. No sire .ch of roadway is uni
formly good bscause every road has
certain small Jpots that are usually
soft and wet. These spots cause more
trouble than the rest of the road COM
bined. How these spots are to be Inn
proved depends on the character of
the soil, and the nature of the coun.
try. Many such spots owe their char
acter to soft subsoil, due to springs.
Before these roads can be permanent
ly improved they must be under
drained. If tile is laid In these
places there will usually be no trouble
In the future. The surface of the road
should then be filed with dirt and
crowned, so any surface water may
run off. If this is done there will be
no trouble from subsurface water.
Many roadways that are closed in
with shade trees are bad. If a goodly
portion of the scrub timber along these
roads be removed, the ground will dry
out and no trouble result. If the char
acter OF the soil is soft and pliable, so
that 1t will not pack and remain firm.
new material should be applied to the
surface. The best and cheapest mate
rial for improving roads is gravel.
Where gravel beds are accessible a
days work with team and wagon
will improve any roadbed permanent
ly. If the soil is very sandy an S-inch
application of clay to the surface will
effect wonders. The road patrol should
spend considerable portion of its
time in remedying the bad spots in the
road.

WIDE TIRES IMPROVE ROADS
They Have Same Effect on Country
Highway as Roller on Field
Also Pull Easier.

Wide tires build up roads and save
horse labor. They have the same eff
feet upon a country road as roller on
a plowed field. On the other hand, the
narrow tire cuts up a road like disk.
1t has been found by actual test in this
matter that the wlde-tired wagon
pulls easier In nearly all cases than
the narrOw-tired wagon. In deep mud
on country road the wide-tired wag-
on pulls 81 per cent easier. On the
country road with a thin surface OF
mud or deep dust, however, the mar
row tires pull 40 per cent easier. In
a cornfield the wide tires pull 30.5 per
cent easier, ia dry alfalfa field III
per cent easier, and on dry country
road 1912 per cent easier.
