Some things do fall out awkwardly,

One evening the fair Evelina was ex-

her mother hadn't come back from
shopping. So. while Evelina slipped
upstairs TO don her best blouse and
some powder on her nose, the young
brother was left Of guard.
The expected visitor arrived, and
was ushered into the parlor by Will

ask questions. as small boys always do.

HOW SCIENTISTS
EXAMINE SOILS
Survey of important Work of One
of Branches of Department
of Agriculture.
STUDIED VARIED ACTIVITIES
Bureau Took Active Part With Geo.
logical Survey in Wide
Search for Deposits of Mi
trates and Potash.

During the twenty years of its
existence, the bureau of soils, United
States department Of agriculture, has
studied the chemical constituents of
the soils of all parts of the country. 1t
has investigated these constituents
qualitatively and quantitatively, show
ing their relation to one another and
TO plants, their solubility and perma-
nency, and the manner of their func-
tioning. Ii has studied the problem
of alkali-that condition. arising where
soils contain an excess of soluble salts
and devised methods for measuring
the content of alkali in the field and
for eliminating it under field condi-
tons. 1t has studied hardpans, ex-
planned the manner of their formation,
and suggested the means of improving
lands affected with the different sorts.
These various activities have involved
the making of thousands of analyses
ano the devising of much apparatus.
Public Given Advice and Counsel.
Advice and counsel is given by the
bureau 70 the public on all matters
connected with soil chemistry. The
bureau has also investigated the phys
ical properties of soils. 1t has devised
apparatus for measuring the tempera-
ture of soils, the movement of water
and of air and other gases in soils.
The absorption of water, the e~tent
and rate of capillary action, the eff
feet of pressure On the concentration
Of the nutrient solution. and on the
retention of that solution in the sell,
the relation of soils TO erosion, and
many kindred problems have been
worked upon.
The bureau has also worked upon
the problem of the nXation of nitrogen
found in the air in its experimental
factory at Arlington. much advance

cal conclusion this move will result

indianapolis Youngster Had a Pretty
Shrewd Idea of What He Was
Doing, After All.

John Arthur is a pupil in a Jeffer-
sonville~ departmental school, and had
TO write an essay on Woodrow Wilson,
among others. He evinced such a high
regard for the president. especially in
his management of the world war,
as TO express the view that he was
ever greater than Washington or Lin
coin. He said they made a fine show
ing in the little wars they had TO ham
die, but could hardly, he thought, have
got through the big one. His father,
seeing the essay, ventured the opin-
ion that the writer was too positive
In his statement, although admiring
Wilson himself. John Arthur showed
he was perhaps something of a dip
lomat as well as an ~essayist.

OATS ARE ECONOMICAL CROP
Not Generally as Profitable as Some
other Grains, but Needed in
Good Rotation.

IT is sound farm business to sell
some crops for cash. Farm manage
ment surveys have shown that the
safest and sOundest practice is to
have about one-fifth Of the total re-
ceipts on the farm come from sale of
crops. The other four-fifths will come
from the sale Of live stock or live
stock products.
The crop that can usually be sold
for cash most economically is oats.
Oats are not generally as profitable a
crop to grow as some others, but a
good rotation needs this small grain In
il. 1t makes a very satisfactory con
Meeting link between the corn crop
and the hay crop. Corn, If sold as a
cash crop, makes a larger return TO
the acre. but corn can usually he fed
more proftably than IL a be sold for

than o; rs. Hence, If any crop is 10

WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE
Small Boy Satified That the Bill for
His Three Days Fun Mas Not
Exorbitant.

At last little Freddy was allowed TO
visit grandpa all alone. They were
great friends and had long waited for
the great day.
Freddy had the time OF his life.
Grandpa saw that he wanted for
nothing. The small boy ate more
cream buns in those three days than
he would otherwise have done In three
years, while his pockets bulged all the
time with candies.
But there comes an end to every
thing, and Freddy went home again,
pale yellow of complexion. and languid.
and feverish. Mother promptly sent
for the doctor, who ordered him TO.
bed, and sent him some very unpieas-
ant but doubtless healing medicine.
Grandpa came mex day and was
permitted 10 creep upstairs to see how
the sufferer was faring. He found the
small boy lying wan and pale on his
pillow, but received a watery smile as
a welcome.
