WILL MEAN END OF EARTH
Drop of Water Will Be Alb
sorbed and World a Desert

How old is the ocean? Standing on
the shore and looking over the ex-
panse of water, the ocean seems a fixed
and eternal fact, but the seas had a
beginning and will have an end. Sci
entiSts say that when this time comes
the last drop of water will have been
absorbed into the earth's crust, its
surface will be a desert and all life
will become extinct.
The age of the oceans has been eS-
timated by a leading authority, Prof.
Frank Clark of the United States geo.
logical survey, at about 100000
years. This, of course, is only an
approximation, but is based on care
fully studied scientific data. All the
water was once contained in the vapor
that surrounded the glowing, slowly
cooling mass which is now the earth.
After the gases combined to form wa
ter the process of making the ocean
salt began. This was the work of
the rivers. Mineral salts were ex-
tracted from the rocks over which
they flow and deposited in the sea.
Each year the action of the streams
is said to make the ocean slightly more
salty, and this is the basis on which
it's age is calculated. The amount of
salt carried by the rivers of the world
is computed by the scientists and com
pared with the total quantity in the
ocean. After evaporation and the We
| locity of currents have been consid-
cred, it is possible to calculate how
long it has taken to make sea water
| as salty as it is today

DRAINAGE GOES INTO CAVES
How a oeologist Solved Problem for
Big Government Chemical
Plant.

The science of geology attains one
Of its highest objectives when it pre-
sents a deduction that points the way
to obtain practical results. An illus
tration of such q deduction was given
in connection with the proposed dis
posal of chemical waste from one OF
the new government plants now under
construction at Sheffield, Ala, for the
fixation of atmospheric nitrogen.
This plant, says an exchange, is so
situated that surface drainage from
1t would be difficult and expensive,
and, furthermore, there seems to be
danger that the discharge Of chemical
waste into the neighboring streams
would produce bad results.
The problem was incidentally sub
mitted to geologist, who ascertained
that the plant rests on limestone, a
kind of rock that is likely to be honey
combed by calves. He advised trying
drill holes.
The plan proposed met with the
usual opposition from so-called "prac-
tical men," who made the customary
disparaging remarks about scientific
theories" but trial hole was started
close to small lake near the plant
and when the drill reached a depth OF
1,775 feet and a trench had been dug
from the lake to the hole the water
quickly disappeared through some sub
terranean passage.
Geology also won some local praise
by reason Of the lake bottom yielding
up about five bushels of fresh fish.
Other holes are to be drilled to in
sure adequate drainage when the plant
Is in operation.

Aid Farmers.

When a business concern wants to
borrow money it makes a business
statement showing the inventory-or
money invested at the beginning and
end of the year-the money taken in
during the year, the expenses and the
profits. With this statement a banker
knows whether or not it is safe to
loan money to this company-in other
words, whether the company has a
good chance of securing profitable re-
turns from a further investment in
their business. A company with a
good business, as shown by such a
statement, usually has good credit
and can borrow money cheaply.
There are many farmers in this
country who keep records of what
they have on hand at the beginning
and end of the year and of what they
take in and what they spend. These
men can borrow money more easily
and cheaply than most farmers be-
cause they have the figures to show
the banker.
But before a farmer borrows any
money he should have very clearly in
mind what he wants to use it for,
and be very sure that in the end it
will pay him to borrow.

AMERICAN is NOT soNGsTER
Seems That Real Musical Instinct Has
Yet to Be Awakened in the
United States.

The last quarter of a century the
general feeling has spread abroad that
America was quite a musical nation,
and it is true that in the large cities
of the eastern seaboard and quite far
into the middle West there is a good
deal of listening to music in the form
of opera and concerts, given, for the
most part, by imported musicians; but
when we reach the great heart of the
country we find that the natural in
stincts of the people are almost entire
ly starved, or at any rate, very poorly
nouriShed. For q musical nation is
not one which merely listens to music
made by others, any more than a peo-
pie is. athletic if, instead of exercising
themselves, they watch others indulge
in gymnastics.
A musical people is one which con-
siders music such an indispensable
food and tonic for their own spirits
and imaginations that they sing and
play in every activity of daily life just
as freely and naturally as they laugh
and speak. For many centuries this
has been true of all the great European
nations-the Italians, French, Scotch,
Irish, Scandinavians, Russians and 9th
ers-and the result is the great body
of folk song and folk dance which is
the priceless heritage of all these ma
TONS
Just why the American has not yet
become q singing animal (as Aristotle
said everyone was social animaD is
difficult matter to explain, although.
| doubtless, if sufficient time were taken,
reasonable causes might be suggested +;
| but, at any rate, it is a fact. Surely
one of the most direct products of
this war will be the bringing home to
the whole body polite of the value of
music, for by means of the stress OF
war which is bringing the whole coun-
| try together, a love Of music may be
carried into the most remote parts OF
the country.
Good regimental bands have always
furnished one of the most sympathetic
bonds between the body polite ant
the government of any given country
and we earnestly hope that more and
more, both during the war and after
it, we shall have in America mum

cially on national holidays, thus i'm

lating effect of martial music.
In a number of the camps in tht
middle West and in Texas we were
told by officers and song leaders tha
there were drafted men who had COM

who had never seen any musical in
struments,s such as a pianoforte an
violin, and who had no idea that mel
could make pleasing sounds with thei
vocal organs in connection with til

COUNTY AGENT
BECOMES LEADER
Has Come to Act as Clearing
House of Cooperation Be-
tween City and Country.
CAN Direct where NEEDED
None of His Time Can Be Devoted to
Work That Does Not Concern
Agricultural Development
Likely to Be Busy Man.

The growth and the Strengthening of
the county agent system has resulted
in almost all cases in the county agents
coming to be recognized as the agri-
cultural leaders in their counties, ac-
cording to reports to the United
States department of agriculture.
Help for City and Country.
The county agent has come to act
as the clearing house of cooperation.
He is available to both the city man
and the country man and can trans
NIT from one to the other requests for
help and offers of help. He can di-
rect, to places where it is needed, farm
labor offered; he can assist farmers in
their problem of cooperative market
ing; he can inform chambers of COM
merce, county councils of defense,
merchants associations and other ur-
ban bodies, of the problems before the
farmers in his county; in general he
is in a position to act as the medium
through which the town will meet the
needs of the country and the country
will meet the needs of the town.
Must Concentrate Efforts.
Every county agent is required to
know and observe that his services be
long to all the people in his county,
but it is evident that none of his time
can be given to work that does not
concern agricultural development. He
is placed in the county to stimulate
good farming. Therefore, he must con
fine himself to work on definite prob
lens affecting farmers. 1t is neces-
sary for him to utilizeNhe aid of com.
munity organizations to the fullest
extent and it is within his duties to
impress upon the town people how
vital their interest and help is to the
farmers.
In the war emergency the county
agents are not only representing the
/ agricultural colleges and the depart
ment of agriculture, but are assisting
the food administration, the treasury
| department, the war department, the
navy department, the department Of
/ justice and the department of labor.
Help in Direct War Work.
They have aided, in addition tt
their regular activities, in such work
as food surveys, seed surveys, seeG
distribution, obtaining credit for farm
ers, selling Liberty bonds, eradication
of livestock diseases, surveys of live
stock diseases, surveys of insect pests
and campaigns for their destruction
marketing farm products, preferential
or priority shipments by railroads o.
farm products and all farm supplies
and the dissemination of information
! given out by the war department, tn,
council OF national defense and tht
committee on public information re
garding the war and other matters af
fecting the national policy under We.
conditions.
Thus it can be seen that the count,
agent is likely TO be a rather bus,
man.

why in the world did you use paste
in putting it on?"

their last dollar for the cause of de-

of this celebrated movie player, the
mother told how Chaplin had given
hundreds of dollars to the cause for
Liberty bonds and Thrift stamps. The
lad remarked:
.'Why, that's nothing. 1 act as
