THE WONDER BOY

Doubtless you all remember about
nine years ago, how the country was
greatly excited because a fourteen
year-old son of Prof. Boris Sidis had
graduated at Harvard-how he had
proposed mathematical and astrono-
rlical problems which the professors
could not answer The magazines were
full of stries about the youthful prodi-
gy. It was learned that his father had
taken him at three years of age, and
taught him Greek and higher mathe-
mates. Prof. Boris Sidis wrote arti-
cles himself for the magazines, ex-
planning that his boy was no different
than other boys, and that any parent,
by taking a boy in time could have
him an intellectual plant at thirteen
Then young Sidis dropped out of sight
and was forgotten. But week or so
ago he broke into the news again.
And how? Well, he was given six
months jail sentence for engaging In a
riot and assaulting several policemen.
Is it to be wondered at? Denied q
childhood, his youthful energies at last
sought an outlet. Must all freaks turn
out so. After all j. is better to let
old Mother Nature take her course.
Let a child be a child while he can.
Divert the natural current of his soll
and later on when he becomes his
own boss he runs riot and goes to
weed.-Exchange

ousting His "Boarder" Cows.

A good example of what cow-test-
ing associations are doing to help dai-
nv men Gull Improbable milk produc-
ers is shown in the experience of an
Iowa dairyman who reports that thru
the cow-testing association he learn
ed that one cow was paying him $2.4O
for each dollars worth of feed, while
another returned only So cents. This
dalryman lost no time in selling the
poor cow and five others which show
ed by test that they were not paying
for the feed they consumed. This
year he will be able to produce milk
at less cost, thus increasing his pro-
hts He writes, II have cut down
on the feed cost by eliminating the
boarders, and can still further re-
duce it by using more clover and al
falfa than was available last year"
At the farmers breakfast table in
1913 he drank coffee that cost him 16
per cent more than in 1914, and he had
sugar that cost SO per cent more,
bread made from flour that cost go
per cent more, and whatever use was
made of lard, it cost him 1873 per cent
more than in 1914.

The ignorance of some elements of
the rising generation as to the Bible
is often deplored, but occasionally the
young men of today display an aptness
of comment on scriptural subjects that
is gratifying. Here is an example
quoted by a subscriber: The young
artilleryman had said that Germany
was bully and coward and carried
her defeat in her makeup. The Bibli-
cal commentator instanced, as proof
of this, Goliath in full armor parad-
ing up and down and cursing the Isra-
elites, while the young and inexperi-
enced" David slew him with smooth
stone from the brook. To this the ar
tilleryman rejoined: "Don't believe
for moment that David was ignorant
or inexperienced. He knew perfectly
the value of the projectile. He knew
that armor and spear with shaft
like a weaver's bean were clumsy and
useless offensives against well-select-
ed and well-aimed projectilesw

Summer Hay Crops.

The high price of rough feed en-
phasizes the necessity of all farmers
planting sufficient acreage of sum-
mer forage crops to enable them to
provide themselves with hay and other
roughhages for their stock druing the
coming year. With the abundance of
pasture available in the spring time,
farmers oftentimes are unmindful of
the necessity of providing for that
period during the fall when pastures
will be dry or during the winter when
there will be no feed available.
The county agents should be consult
ed with reference to the availability of
seed. Where outside purchase have
to be made, the order should be placed
al once, so that the seed may be on
hand to sow.
