WEALTH IN BAMBOO GROVES
Their Cultivation in the Southern
States Is Expected Soon to Be
a Recognized Procedure.

One thinks more readily of an Amer
lean farm with a wood lot than of one
with a bamboo grove, but bamboo
groves may yet become common in the
southern states, il the idea Of sin
struct the farmer" in the desirability
Of planting them makes reasonable
progress. 1t will be a new idea to the
farmer. and he will have to think it
over. Meantime the country has one
important bamboo grove hourishing in
the state of Georgia. where it stands
in the custody of the United s. ties
department of agriculture, to serve as
an object lesson. The young bamboo
shoots provide an early spring vege-
table, said to have a flavor much like
that Of sweet corn, and the stalks
have a wide range of uses which
should make bamboo grove profit
able. It is worth the farmers consid-
GRAFTON, for example, that millions OF
small canes are yearly imported from
Japan, and fishing rods made out of
them, for which the United States pays
annually about $5,0OO,OO0.

At the time our union station was
built, the Star said the arrangements
for warming the white waiting room
were inadequate. and the powers that
were promptly jumped ON us. Exper-
fence of two years proved that our
criticism was correct. The waiting
room is pleasant enough on O Warm
day or night. but in cold weather it Is
not as warm as a well built barn.
With an ordinary-sized fireplace at
one end of the room and doors con-
stantly opening and shutting, it is
impossible to keep the place even
moderately comfortable in chilly
weather. We were at the station this
morning before daylight, found four
men huddled around the remnants of
a fire. which just about kept their
noses and toes warm, and all the rest
OF the room uncomfortably cool to all
not well wrapped up. 1t would be a
miserable place for women and chill
dren to wait in for several hours. Why
doesn't the railroad administration
have a man TO keep the fires burning
and doors closed in cold weather? The
night operator can't be expected to
attend TO such things.

Hard to Account for Figures.

Statistics have recently been pub

ing that the Medical Records Geneva
(Switzerland) correspondent says
they 'need confirmation" 1t is stated
that for every 1000 boys born I'm the

was 1000 boys to 1,024 girls. Moth

known with certainty as to the con-
ditions that determine sex In the hu.
man species. but there is quite large
amount OF evidence in support OF the
generalization that during wars and
famines, when the conditions are gen
eraIly adverse, especially with regard
10 nutrition, the proportion Of male
relative to female births increases. II
there Is any foundation for this gen

either that the figures are wrong or
that Germany was mighty well nour-

The state of Nebraska sets a good
example. A dispatch from Lincoln
says: Constitutionaiity Of a state
law designed to curtail use of foreign
languages in Nebraska schools as an
Americanization measure was upheld
by the state supreme court today. The
law which applies TO the public, pri-
vate, parochial and UNCONVENTIONAL
schools in the state provides: "That
foreign languages shall not be en-
ployed in giving instruction on any
subject to pupils below the ninth
grade; that foreign languages may be
taught in the ninth and higher grades
in so far as teaching of such Ian
guages was require but may not be
used as a mediu moi instruction In
any other subjects" Validity OF the
law was attacked by the Nebraska
district of the Evangelical Lutheran
Synod of Missouri. Ohio and other
states.

Various criticisms of Secretary
Daniels have brought out an express
sion of opinion from Mr.. T. MI. Kill
gore, who has retired after. we be-
lieve, two or three re-enlistments in
the navy. Mr.. Kilgore says that
Daniels has done more than any other
secretary for the enlisted men and Go
abolish class distinctions in the navy.
It's the Stars opinion that a good
deal could be done TO improve the con-
dition of the enlisted men in the army
as well as the navy without hurting
discipline or impairing morale. We
said nothing about it at the beginning
oe the war, for we thought that no
time to be making changes, but il
would be mighty good idea TO make
them before the next one.

that a contest over the will of the late
John Hall is threatened. Mr.. Hall had
his property, rumored to be over $780,
900, i'm his own name and in his will
after leaving comparatively small por-
tions to his other three children he left
the bulk of the estate to his son Cor
don who had been living with him on
the homestead Objections to the
probate of the will have been filed al
leging the usual grounds of "testamen-
tary incapacity'', and undue influence
exercised by the principal beneficiary.
The three who would profit by the will
not being allowed are Jay Hall of this
city, Berlin Hall of California, and
Mrs. Schuette, of Fond du Lac. Unless
an agreement can be arrived at there
promises to develop one of those de
plorable family feuds that go to the
courts of last resort. Hougen < Brady
appeared Tuesday for one contestant
and Nash K Nash and j. 5. Anderson
represent the estate.
