THIS GRAIN TRULY GOLDEN"
How Discovery Of Prolific Gold Field
Was Made In Mysore, State
of India.

One of the worlds most prolific gold
fields at the present time is in the
Kolar district (Mysore state) of India.
Discovery of 1t was made in curious
way.
In prosperous years, when the gods
favored the valley with an ample har-
vest of rice, grains of gold were found
now and then on rice ears. This great
~ mystified the natives. who ascribed
the gold to supernatural powers.
What probably happened was that
these grains, derived from the gravelly
SOL. lodged on the young rice plants
when they were being grown In nur.
series (for subsequent transportation
to the fields) and flooded at intervals
with water.
The strange occurrence at frs,
deemed supernatural, led to the discov
cry that the gravels of the valley wer1
rich in gold, brought down from the
mountains. Since then the Koler Gis
trict has contributed largely to the
worlds supply of the yellow metal.

ORIGINATED IN DAINTY VERSE
Expression That Is Considered Slight
Iy Vulgar Today Traced to
Poet Cowper.

Some Of the crudest expressions In
the English tongue had their origin
in poetry, and even religious COM
manAs. Among these the phrase. Ito
go the whole hog" is striking ex-
ample. Today 1t is looked upon as
a vulgarism. Yet the words were OBJ
tanned directly from a poem by Cow
per, whose title is the pretty term.
love Of the World Reproved." The
poem is the versifying of an Arabian
story that seems well founded In fact.
Mohammed in giving forth his laws
declared that certain part of the pig
should not be eaten. but he forgot TO
mention just what part 1t was that
he thought unclean. His followers, TO
make sure of not violating his COM
mands, 1ebarred the whole pig. As
there wete many. however, who were
dearly fond of pork, they met and
agreed that one would eat the steaks,
one the chops, one the feet, ana so on,
until the whole pig had been eaten
and thus but one of the feasters could
be made to suffer for sin. AS Cow
per says: "They thought 1t hard from
the whole hog to be debarred," and
adds: with sophistry, their sauce
they sweeten, till quite from tail to
snout, tits eaten"

Wars o, the United States.

A stray paragraph on WARS Of the
United States" enumerates nineteen
wars. Ten Of these were conflicts
with Indian tribes, Of which the most
important were probably the Black
Hawk war and the Seminole war. II
these are called wars, an eleventh
might be added-the Modoc war Of
1873. The important wars on the list
are the War OF the Revolution, the
War of 1912. the Mexican war, the
Civil war, the Spanish war, the war
with Germany. The minor conflicts
included In the list are: the war with
France, 1908; the war with Tripoli.

Although there is no danger for

the department of agriculture are
somewhat apprehensive over the effect
that the low prices for fiber prevailing

Low prices, according to reports to

Duck farms are usually located on

land. where the droppings will leach
freely into the SOIL SO that the land
keeps sweet and clean. The farm
should have good shipping facilities to
aid both in shipping products and in
buying supplies. The arrangement OF

outside yards, and the arrangement
OF the buildings should be planned so
that the ducks may be easily driven
from house To house II desired. The
feed room or house should be centrally
located.
Convenient watering arrangements
are essential where large numbers OF
ducks are kept as they require large
amount OF drinking water. While
ducks may he kept successfully under
very intensive conditions, II Is advis-
able to allow moderate amount Of
yard space. Double yards, which may
be rotated, and planted TO quicL-grow-
ing crops, such as oats. wheat and rye
are good for intensive duck farms.
It is advisable TO have pond or
stream for the breeding ducks, say
poultry specialists of the United States
department of agriculture, MS they
usually give better fertility under
these conditions. although on soIhe
successful duck farms the ducks are
always kept on dry land. The young
green ducks on some farms which have
a pond are not allowed to 30 into the
water except 10 battle and clean their
feathers before marketing. Other
growers, however. allow the green
ducks free access to ponds or streams

Labor and binder twine.
On the eve of the harvesting sea-
son the wheat-growers' thoughts turn
to these two necessary Items, particu-
larly the former, which caused him
much worry during the years Of the
war. OF course. labor Is the chief
problem. but binder twine is some
thing that must be reckoned with as
well, and in its own way Is very
important feature in the harvesting
operations.
The wheat-grower need have no ep-
prehensIon as to the supply of binder
twine this season. Reports coming to
the bureau Of plant industry indicate
that there will be plentiful supply
of this commodity available for the
American farmer. Not only will il
be plentiful, but II is likely to be
cheaper this year than for some years
past.

source Of henequen. from which the
twine is made-produced large crop

termination of control of prices by
