@. What is the explanation of the
excessive growth of giants? W. R.
A. Giants suffer from a disease of
H..
ex ray picture of the brain will show if
this gland is affected. Children of alb
normal growth or corpulence should be
examined in this respect, and if affected
should he treated.
@. How should Mary Smith, married
to John Smith, be addressed? G. S.
A. 1t is considered preferable to call
her Mrs John Smith. Should she be-
come widow, however, she would be
addressed as Mrs Mary Smith.
@. How may broken crockery be
mended? S. W.
A. One of the strongest cements,
according to the Scientific American
Cyclopedia of>Formulaes, and one easily
applied, is lime and the white Of an egg.
To use it, take sufficient quantity of
the egg to mend one article at a time,
shave off quantity of lime, and mix
thoroughly. Apply quickly to the
edges, and place firmly together. Mix
but small quantity at a time, as it
hardens quickly.
@. How did the fourth of March
come to be chosen as the day for the
inauguration of presidents? O. He.
A. Benjamin Franklin selected this
date because it fell less frequently on
Sunday than any other date in the year
during the two centuries that were to
follow.
@. What is a shooting star? S. N. A.
A. The best accepted theory of the
shooting star is that it is a piece of
matter thrown off by some planet and
which travels through space at great
speek. When it strikes the atmosphere
that surrounds the earth the friction
heats it until it becomes luminous or
even until it is entirely consumed.

STATE TURNS SANDS
INTO FERTILE FIELDS

Did you know that Wisconsin has
100000 acres of sandy soils? That's
why the making of these soils as fer
tile as possible is one of the biggest
problems with which the agricultural
men are struggling.
How would you like to see thousands
of these acres covered with luxuriant
clover? Well that is what you are
seeing many places now on sandy soils
and the chances are that you will see
many more fields in the future. For
clover helps to build up the sandy
soils
