leaf with halo around it's head. The
figure is almost nude. AS the viewer
passes around these galleries both
sides are seen to consist of a series
of sculptured pictures, surmounted
with domes and pinnacles with
Buddhas on all sides gazing at one
with their inscrutable eyes. All the
wonderfully artistic scenes are from
the life of Buddha, depicting it from
the time he left his lotus leaf throne
to descend to earth, and his successive
reincarnations until attaining Nirvana,
the desired spiritual haven Of Bud
dhism. These sculptures are in high
relief centered in rectangular frames.
Each relief is a scene from the history
of Buddha, and the whole series forms
complete story of his life, from his
birth to his death. 1t is stated that
if all the reliefs were placed in a
straight line they would extend for
three miles. 1t is estimated that there
must be 10000 carved figures in all.
| From. the fourth gallery access TO
| the upper level is gained By Il stairs OF
| II steps. This level has only an outer
wall upon which is erected three circu-
lar terraces, one rising few feet
above the other. Upon this are z
remarkably uniform lattice-worked
stone dagabas or shrines, each culmin-
ating in a slender spire. Each OF these
beautiful bell-shaped shrines contains
statue of Buddha, each statue facing
toward the central dome, which signi-
fies that it is utterly detached from
all the temptations and cares OF this
wicked world.
Such is a brief description of the
main points Of Boro-B udur. the worlds
greatest temple. and the finest exam
ple of ancient Indian art, which VIII
soon be made accessible by airplane.
Perhaps in the years to,come this world
wonder may attain fame equal to
that of the great pyramid. But
at present it stands utterly unknown
| to the world at large.

HOW HOG NANCE IS SPREAD
Disease Is Contracted More Rapidly
Among Animals of Low Vital
ity--cure by Dipping.

Hog mango is spread mainly by d.
rect bodily contact, according to in
vestigations recently conducted by the
United States department of agricul-
ture. The disease is contracted most
rapidly among hogs of low vitality,
especially those kept in small inclos-
ures. 1t spreads more slowly among
vigorous animals kept in pastures or
in clean, well-lighted roomy pens or
buildings. Failure by swine owners
to control hog mango results in heavy
losses from shrinkage as well as from
a high death rate. The department
states that the disease can be eradi-
Gated by four clippings in lime-sul-
phur or arsenical solution with in
tervals Of 6 to Z days between dip
pings.

RAISING SHEEP FOR MUTTON
There Are Many Areas, Especially in
HilIy Regions, Where Few Ami
mails Could Be Kept.

Sheep are not very generally kept
on farms for supplying the home fam
lily with meat. There are many areas,
especially in billy or mountainous re-
gions, where nearly every farm could
keep a few mutton sheep to advan-
tage, says the United States depart
ment of agriculture. Boys and girls
clubs in some parts Of the country
have done much to foster home pro-
ductiOn of mutton.
"Sheep naturally Craze over rather
wide areas and seek a variety of
plants. This habit particularly adapts
them to being kept in large numbers
on lands of sparse vegetation or fur
nishing a variety of grasses or other
plants. They do better on short and
fine grasses than on coarse or high
feed. They will eat good deal of

seriousness and reduces to a minimum
the nausea that generally follows the
use of ether.
The ability to produce insensibility
to pain without loss of consciousness
opens up an entirely new field, includ-

performed without any attempt to
eliminate pain. Certain types of den
tai operations and obstetrical cases
illustrate one point, as well as the
changing of packing and dressing OF

Reverse the pictured! While the
airplane means that the new places
of earth will soon have lost their new
ness, it also means that some of the
old, old places of earth-so old that
the busy world has almost forgotten
them-will again attract the public
because they can be reached.
For example, in the center of Java
stands Boro-Budurl Never heard of
Boro-Budur! Quite likely. Yet it
was built at least II centuries ago,
and it is a more impressive relic Of
the labors of the ancients of earth
than the great pyramid. Once it was
visited by thousands of devout wor-
Slippers. Now the jungle has crowded
in about it and it is a large undertake
ing to reach it-until airplane service
shall have been established
1t is a peculiar fact, says francis
Dickie, in the Scientific American,
that some of the great wonders of the
world are known to the general ruI Oh
men and women almost from infancy,
while others, quite as remarkable, in
deed more so, remain unknown to the
world at large. The most striking ex-
ample of this is the magnificent hill
temple of BOro-Budur, one of the most
gigantic and finest works ever reared
by the ancients. Boro-Budur repre-
Sents more human labor and artistic
skill than the great pyramid Yet
everyone has heard of the great pyra-
mid, while practically no one knows
of Boro-Budur.
Boro-Budur was built about the sew
enth century, A. D., as far as is
known from pathological research. It
lies in central Java and owes its origin
to Buddhism. The ashes of Buddha
were distributed by his great apostle,
King Osaka of India, to eight towns
where they were buried Some time
after the ashes were taken from the
tombs and redivided into $4,000 parts.
These were preserved in vases and
given out over all his dominions. When
the Buddhist missionaries came to
Java in the seventh century they
brought one of these vases and, as a
fitting receptacle for this, Boro-Budur,
the worlds, greatest temple, was
erected-the finest piece Of architec-
ture of its kind in the then known
world, and one which has never been
rivaled since.
For about 800 years Boro-Pudur
was visited by millions of worshipers
then a Mohammedan invasion swept
the country and the temple was de-
serted. Jungle grew about it and vol

craters the island is famous for, COW
