FARMERS GOING TO CANADA;
$4,000 LEAVE MIDDLE WEST
Have Taken $5O,0OO,0O0 and Invest
Il in Land in Western Canada
Since Movement Began.

In the twenty years that the move
ment of farmers of the United
States into western Canada has been
going on $4,000 of the best farmers
of Nebraska and western Iowa have
crossed the border, taking with them
$50,O00.000.
The movement dwindled to almost
nothing during the world war, but
has again opened strong. During the
first four months of 1920, 383 Ne
braska farmers sold out and applied
for certificates to Canada. Their COM
bined wealth was $1,094,030
The movement is due principally
to propaganda by the Canadian gov
eminent, which has opened land Of
fees in agricultural districts of the
United States for the purpose of in
ducing settlers to go into western
Canada.
The movement began in the Mis-

REACHED HOME IN TIME
TO STOP OWN FUNERAL
Man Who Was Supposed to Be Dead
Gives Big Surprise.

Gives Big Surprise.
Peter keenan,, a New York city
Waterman, arrived home one night
recently just in time to stop invita-
lions for his funeral being sent out.
He found his wife in mourning and
the parlor cleared of furniture for
the reception of his corpse.
The preparations for funeral
had been caused by the fact that a
few hours previous his brother,
Thomas, had identified the body of a
man who had dropped dead as being
Peter keenan,. Thomas claimed the
body and notified the widow"
The body was taken to an under
taker to be prepared for burial.
Meanwhile Thomas, who took charge
of the funeral arrangements, started
out to notify Peters employer, a con-
tractor, of the sudden death of
Peter. When he opened the door of
the watchman's shanty he was con-
fronted by Peter himself.
SIS that you, Peter, or is it your
ghost?' asked Thomas, accompany
ing his query with a kick at Peters
shins.
Peter let out a howl which con-
WINGED Thomas that he was alive and
in good health. Thomas then ex-
planned the death of Peters double
and the two brothers hurried home
to call off the funeral.

circle that the variation is very
small and not by any means great
enough to cause the variation be-
tween summer and winter. The real
cause of the seasons is, of course,
the fact that during the summer
months the sun is higher in the sky,
thus giving us more intense heat
while it is up, and being above the
horizon greater part of the day
than it is below it warns US for a
longer period each day. Any part
of the earth is warmed in the day
time and cools off by radiation at
night. Therefore when we have
summer the southern hemisphere has
winter and vice versa.
Size of the Sun.
The sun is one of the stars; only
it happens to be our particular star
and is so close to us as to dwarf all
the other stars of the universe. AS
matter of fact the sun is not one
of the largest of the stars, nor yet
is it one of the smallest in size. But
compared to the earth and other
planets it is a veritable giant. The
earth's diameter is about 1900
miles and that of the sun is over
100000, which makes the latter
equal in volume to 100000 earths.
In actual amount of material the
sun has more than 100000 times as
much as the earth. In the sky the
sun does not look quite so big, but
that is because its distance from US

The Suns Heat.
The sun is at an enormously high
temperature, probably over 10000
degrees Fahrenheit The earth only
catches a minute part of all the en-
ergy, light and heat which the sun is
constantly pouring into space. At
that, we often think that we are
getting more than our fair share and
are inclined to be grateful to the
many million miles which separate
US from the body to which we owe
our existence. 1t has been calcula-
ted that the solar energy caught by
the earth contains enough power to
run continuously as many as TO-
000, 100000 Ford automobiles.
6AHu IudL Is IC0S Ilieih OIlC GWO-pAA-
lionth of its total energy output.
What is the source Of this appar
emily limitless energy? The astron-
omer must acknowledge that he does
not know. For many years it was
firmly believed that the sun was
shrinking under the gravitational
pull of the central nucleus upon the
outer layers and that this decrease
in size released sufficient energy to
account for the entire output of the
sun. 1t was calculated that in order
to produce so much energy the sun
would have to shrink at the rate of
only 240 feet per year, which would
not be noticeable in less than 49,
600 years.
Today the astronomer does not
believe that this contraction can be
the only source of the suns heat;
for he has calculated that upon this
theory the sun could not have lasted
as long as we are certain it must
have lasted, according to the best
estimates of the age of the earth.
Other sources of energy have to be
sought; among these has been sug-
gested the energy of the atom itself
as is manifested in radio active sub
stances such as radium. 1t is posi-
BILE that in the sun the immense
stores of energy locked up in the
minute atom are released in a way
which to US is as yet an unexplained

SUNS FARTHEST NORTH
MIDDAY OF JUNEl2lST.
LONGEST DAY OF YEAR. THE
REAL CAUSE OF SEASONS.
SUN LARGER THAN EARTH.
Bv DR.. c. S. Brainin.

The June evening sky IS rlch III
planets. for three of these besides the
almost invisible Neptune are evening
stars this month. Slightly west Of the
meridian and close to the bright star
Spica in Virgo will be found the
ruddv Mars about which so much as
Economical romance is constantly wo-
ven. Further to the westward, about
half way to the horizon, is an almost
straight line of three stars; the high
est is the planet Saturn, the next IS
really a star, Sergius, and the lowest
is Jupiter, the largest of all the plan
cts. Venus is still a morning star,
but will change next month and make
is debut as evening star in July, al
though it will not find place on the
9 o'clock map for many months.
The Sun.
The apparent movement of the sun
along the ecliptic, which is due to the
real movement of the earth along its
orbit, will bring the former to the
most northerly point in the heavens
which it can occupy, called the sum-
mer solstice. It is the date which the
astronomer sets for the beginning of
summer, and this year the event will
happen on June 81 at about II 10 p.
m. On this date we will have the
longest daylight period and the short
est night, and from then on the nights
will grow at the expense of the days.
At the time of the autumnal equinox
they will be equal and thereafter the
night will be the longer period until
he vernal equinox is reached.
The sun never gets further north
the equator than 90 II degrees, so
that no point on the earth's surface
which has latitude of more than
23h north can ever have the sun di-
rectly overhead in the zenith. There
is thus a belt on both sides of the
equator, extending 23h degrees
north and south, in which lie all the
places that can have the sun in their
zenith, and this belt is called the tor
rid zone. The boundaries of the zone
are called the tropics, that of Cancer
to the north and that of Capricorn in
the south. The word "tropic" comes
from the Greek word meaning to
turn. In the ancient days when these
phenomena were first studied the sum-
mer solstice point lay in the constella-
ton. Cancer, the Crab, but the pro
cession of the equinoxes has changed
the position of the equator with re-
spect to the ecliptic circles so that this
point has gradually moved into
Gemini.
The Seasons.
Another very important fact with
regard to the sun is that just at this
time when we are having our warm
weather the earth is farther from
the sun than at any other time. The
orbit of the earth is eliptical, so that
the earth's distance from the sun
does vary: but it is so very nearly a

Washington, ID. c., Nov. 7.
The Wilson Administration Is facing
in the tripartite division OF Turkey a
test OF the fieeting suggestion of a for
eign policy 1t has developed since the
signing OF the Versailles treaty.
While the State Department refuses
to say what course It will take. It Is

Turkish plan unless IT is made clear that
no special advantages are to be enjoyed
by the Powers participating in the
division.
The attitude Of the Administration as
developed at the Versailles peace con-
ference was against annexations and ac-
cepted the substitution Of mandates. -
It has later registered its understanding
Of the term mandate to mean that the
country accepting the mandate shall not
