COUNTY BREED DIRECTORIES
Catalogues Are Valuable In Identify
ing Owners and Effective In
Promoting Sales.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Indexing counties as to dominant
breed of live stock maintained, through
the use of county breed directories,
has won great favor in Iowa, where
several years ago Linn county inaugu-
rated this work. Such catalogues are
valuable in identifying the owners of
different breeds and are effective in
promoting sales and in attracting
prospective purchasers to the locality.
They constitute a relatively perma-
nent form of advertising, as ordinar-
lily they are kept for future reference
by those who receive them. The d.
rectories are best issued under the
authority of a county live stock breed
ers association or the local farm bu-
reau. Ordinarily the expenses of these
booklets are raised by the sale of ad-
vertising space to breeders. Practi-
cally any rural printing office can put
out creditable productions of this
class.

COMMUNITY BREEDING PLANS
Farmers In Certain Section Agree to
Stick to One Breed and Use
Purebred Slres.

Community breeding simply means
that the farmers in a certain COM
munity agree to do two things:
First to breed but one breed of cat
tie, sheep or hogs.
Second: They agree to use none but
purebred sires, these sires being own
ed either individually or collectively.
Everyone is absolutely free to do as
he pleases just so long as he sticks to
one class of stock and uses purebred
sire. These ideas can best be carried
out If the farmers are organized In a

When, in 1912, that old monarchy China was transformed into a repub- lie, the title as we'll as the life of the little emperor was retained by the royal prisoner. With the end of em- pire, what was known as republican ism" took possession of the state and trickled down into the little kingdom of Siam, directly beneath. Now, in Slams capital, Bangkok, there is lone Chinese to four Siamese, and to them it seemed that what was good for big China would adequately suffice for the needs of little Siam. But the agita- tors had counted upon neither the king nor his 9,0OO,0OO lovers, and the re- publican breeze died out over night

sunken Vessels "speared."

A device recently patented for rais- ing sunken vessels promises to be fair ly effective. The principle underlying the invention Is the firing into the ves- sells a novel form of grip. This, after penetrating the hull, automatically opens out two extending arms like our hay unloaders, which firmly grasp the plates. The grips are discharged from a special gun by means of com pressed air. After being loaded on the surface, the gun is submerged to the level of the vessel, and is then fired by electricity, magnetic power be- ing employed to keep the muzzle of the gun pointing toward the vessel. The gun can be raised and reloaded as often as is necessary. When sufi- cient number of grips have been placed in position, the vessel, if it is not at too great depth, can be re- foated by means of the cables attach ed to them. If, however, the water is too deep cylinders are slid down the cables, and compressed air is pumped into them until they are buoyant enough to raise the vessel.

When Calm Seas Are Dangerous.

Sometimes, when to the landsman, there seems no sign of an approach ing storm, glassy sea is moved by a gentle swell. But the sailor knows that those quiet undulations are a warning of the deadliest danger. Up- on a perfectly calm day ships have been caught by gentle roll of the water and later dashed to pieces on the rocks by the ground sea-" On the Atlantic, waves rise forty feet high. Driven before the gale they travel % miles an hour, and soon pass out of the storm area. These waves roll on settling into long, rolling ridges that travel in three parallel lines. And the further they go the lower they sink. As the ground sea advances 1t creates a false tide. And the waves break in full force within an hour of the warning swell. A wave caused by a ground sea may be 20 feet high !; when you remember that 1t strikes a boat with a force of a ton to the square inch, you will understand the necessity for pulling ashore while there is time.
