OLD NAMES FOR MODERN CARS
Easy to Trace Applications That Have
Been Given to Distinctive Maleoo
Of Automobiles.

The first sedans were portable en-
closed chairs carried on poles BY two
men. They were extremely popular In
England and are still used in China
and India. The modern sedan has an
enclosed body and accommodates seven
passengers.
Limousine" was originally the name
Of a cloak worn in France, and prob
ably originated from Limousin. the
name of an old province In central
France. Today it h applied to tie
chauffeur-driven car with IN enclosed
compartment. The drivers seat u out
side, but covered by q roof.
Roadster" was first applied to YES
sells that worked their way By means
Of the tides. Later It was used for
bicycles. The modern roadster has
an open body and was designed pfi-
marily for two persons but Of recent
years the four-door roadster, accom-
modating four passengers, has met
with popular favor.

Last Resort.

An eminent engineer said in our
hearing yesterday that in Italy the
workers are giving two hours Of their
time as a free gift to the state. They
realize that increased production means
ultimately increased wealth. In Ger
many there are signs Of the same spirit
among the GOLFERS. But in old Eng
land the following story admirably
illustrates the industrial situation:
Two miners were discussing the mini
mum wage. "Say. BILL" said the first.
..what's this ERE minimum wage7"
Bill spat. 1.-THE minimum wage! That's
What we gets for goin' down; en- II

TWO TRAVELLERS CAME BACK
According to Army Captain, Mules Re-
4. turned From That Dim and
Undiscovered Shore.

The regimental morning report Is
fearsome document. On it appear all
the changes in status Of men and AMI
mails for each preceding "a hours. 1t
happened in an Ohio regiment once
that two mules fell i'll one night. The
veterinarian gave his verdict Of hope
less, and the captain Of the supply
company accordingly made the proper
entry on the morning report: "Two
mules, from duty to dead"
But under the care Of the grizzled
old stable sergeant the mules recov'
cred and next morning the captain
found them alive and kicking. Now,
entries made on the morning report
can never be erased, which made the
situation embarrassing for the cap
tain. However, he was a man OF re-
source, and the next days report car
ried the startling entry: 1.-TWO mules
from dead to duty"

Shrub NAV Prove Valuable.

Two years before the war, as the
story is told, two German chemists
applied for permission to experiment
with the plant life on a great semi-arid
ranch in central Mexico. Their re-
quest was granted, with the under
standing that they furnish complete
report of their findings. The two
chemists.worked feverishly, and chiefly
ON a squat, odorous shrub called go
ber1tadora," long reputed to possess
medicinal properties. Suddenly they
disappeared; what they had discover
ed was never known. Now, after ex-
periments with this same desert
shrub which they have found In drler
parts of New Mexico, chemists OF the
United States department Of agricul-
ture believe that they have discovered
another alka1oid to add to the list
which already includes morphine,
ou{nine and cocaine. Its chemical and
pharmaceutical properties are now I'M

Trapueps Tomb a Log Cabin.

A humble log cabin which stands In
a trackless forest near Lake Atha-
basca, in western Canada, was once
the home of a fur trapper, its builder.
Now it is a tomb, sheltering the frozen
body of it's former occupant, who died
there, alone and unaided, nearly two
years ago. To investigate the cause OF
the trapper's death, fearless mem

Four.Year Old Alfalfa Plant

tested with weeds, it has been the
practice of many growers to disk after
the alfalfa has been cut, with the
disks set nearly straight.
PIow Up Alfalfa Sod.
The best plan, where the alfalfa sod
is beginning to show the ravages Of
wear. is to pillow up the field and de-
vote it to some cultivated crop, such
as corn. for one or two years, and then
to reseed it to alfalfa after preparing
a proper seed bed, lining the sctl il
necessary, properly inoculating the
soil or seed, and sowing the seed early
enough in the fall so that the crop
will establish a vigorous root system
and produce sufficient growth to wealth
er the winter successfully.

FATTENlNG FEED FOR STEERS
Experimental stations Recommend
Corn silage and concentrates -
Best for Cattle.

Corn silage and concentrates are
highly recommended as fattening feed
for steers. Experimental stations re.
port that silage and oil meal or cot-
tonseed meal invariably prove to b.
cheaper than corn or even than hay
or corn with concentrates Or silage
and hay by themselves.
Il is admitted that steer cannot
be finished for beef properly and -
the best advantage on an all-silaga
diet. But the most polished steer on
the market is not always the most
profitable one. High priced feed may
surcost the high priced carcass.
