In the fall, too, there is prepara-

storing of starch and the other re-
serve products by plants, in the in
stinctive storing of honey by hive
bees and of grain by ants, and in the
administrative and half-intelligent
storing of nuts by squirrels and OF
earthworms by moles. There is the
making or collecting of blankets
against the winters cold, as is illus
trated by the non-conducting scales

Earth'S Richest Man

VISIT MARKET PERSONALLY.

A personal visit to the market
which the shipper patronizes will
more than repay expenses, for points
which seem trivial to him are often
very important to dealers, and the
producer should get the proper mar
ket perspective. Such visit enables
the grower to get into personal touch
with the distributors, to select a re-
liable representative, to learn the diff
ficulties under which the car-lot re-
ceiver lobars, and to appreciate the
problems with which he is constantly
confronted.

EDUCATION OF YOUNG Offers

One of the admirable qualities of
the otter is the intensity of the
parental, especially the maternal,
care. The young ones-blind and
downey-are born in soft-lined
nest under the shelter of an inacces-
sible bank; the mother will at first
hardly leave them save on feverish
rushes after food necessary to keep
up the supply of milk. To guard
them she sleeps, like many a human
mother, with at least one ear awake.
When they open their eyes she eau
tiously carries them to bask for a
while in the winter sunshine, for their
birthdays are often in January.
When they can Chamber she
teaches them the wodocrafts of the
immediate vicinity of the hover"
and the complete alphabet of the
sounds that mean danger. With her
teeth she punished disobedient fool
hardiness-especially on the part of
the male cubs-yet she shares in
their frolics when all sensible danger
is distant.
When they are a little over eight
weeks old and able to follow her
afeld, she takes them to quiet pool
and teaches them to swim, supplying
by gradual widening of experience
the liberating stimuli that are needed
to arouse tehir instructive endow-
ments. In about week they can
swim like fishes-a week which seems
more like play than school, for the
otter is one of the animals in which
is profound playfulness in youth--a
period of Irresponsible and apparently
Joyous apprenticeship to the future

carried on by the up-to-date farmer.
Farmers know that the gain from
big business should be more than
from a small one, that good cows are
more profitable than poor ones, and
that good crops are more desirable
than those which do not pay for har-
vesting. The real difficulty is that
the farmer has had no convenient
way of measuring just how good or
how poor his business really was or
is; that is, he has had no way of
measuring its efficiency.
One of the first essentials is a
proper analysis of farm activities,
such as is recommended by the
United States department of agri-
culture. With the facts that are
made available by such an analysis,
the farmer can more readily find
the strong and the weak points in his
system of management and thus
make improvements with some conf
dence in the results. A farmer may
not know off-hand what this total
farm income is, but he does know
with considerable accuracy the facts
necessary to determine this income.
The final result of the analysis of a
farm business is determined mainly
by few large items which the far
mer does know quite accurately. The
first requisite, therefore, is to assem-
BILE and classify properly the items,
large and small, that go to make up
the yearly totals.

Buzzing or humming is mainly due
to rapid vibration of the wings,
which often strike the air more than
a hundred times in a second, but
there is sometimes a special CULVER
