KNOW LITTLE ABOUT EARTH
Mo Curiosity Concerning Possible
Wonders of Its Interior.

The earth's crust is compared to
the skin of an apple by the writer of
leading article In the Scientific
American Monthly. Our knowledge of
the globe on which we live, he says,
is not even skin deep; for an apple
as large as the earth would have
skin twenty miles thick; and no one
has been much more than mile in
to the crust, or has bored into it with
tools more than a mile and a half. Ii
Is rather humiliating to think that
we know more about the sun, ninety
millions of miles away, than we do
of the solid earth under our feet. We
think nothing of dispatching exploring
expeditions to unknown regions thou.
sands of miles away; how about a
little expedition to points only few
miles distant-vertically downward!
Such explorations have been proposed.
although the boldest explorer has not
dared to suggest going further than
twelve miles-a trip that would take
him on the surface of the earth only
from one end of Manhattan island
to the other.

HOME DAIRYMEN FIRST

While congress had under consider

products of the farm. metropolitan
newspapers contained Il dispatch an
momcing the arrival of Scandinavian
steamer at New York with cargo
which included million pounds of
butter exported by the cooperative
creamerieS of Denmark
Now. we have Il very friendly feeling
toward Denmark. though we do not
rccollcct that she rendered any par
ticuIar aid to MS i'm winning the recent
war. We have. also. a very friendly
attitude toward crcamprieS in general
ana cooperative creameries in par
ticular. But our >ympathieS are Of
such character that they reach out
10 American crcamericS and American
cooperation first.
American dairympn are having a
hard time to pay the costs of prOduc-
lion. Many of them have seen their
dairy herds deprecated 10 to 30 per
cent in value in the past few months.
Many have sent their COWS to Slaught-
en- because the business did not pay.
However great our friendly interest in
the Danish dairyman. our interest in
the American dairyman is far greater.
and we dcplore the action of the Demo
cratic administration in cutting the
import duty on butter when its tariff
law of 1913 was enacted

Passengers Caught Below Decks
When Vessels Is Dashed
Upon Rocks.
ONLY 45 ARE RESCUED
Telegraphic Messages From Corunna
Lack Details But Give Little Hope
Those Aboard.

Madrid-From the wreck of the
Spanish steamer Santa Isabel there are
only some forty-ive survivors so far
as is known at present, and it is be-
lieved that the remainder of the pas
sengerS and crew of the vessel, which
went ashore Saturday night on the
coast of Villa Garcia, numbering about
200, have persisted.
Passengers Were at Dinner.
Telephone and telegcarhic messages
from Corunna and VigO lack details,
but leave little hope of the rescue of
more than one-fifth the number of
those aboard the vessel.
The Santa Isabel grounded while
the captain and passengers were at
dinner. The stormy weather kept
most of the people below Apparently
the vessel was dashed upon a rocky
tongue of the coast with such force
that probably most of the victims
lost their lives within few minutes
The catastrophe had eliminated be-
fore the rescuing boats started for the
scene. Those rescued know nothing
of the fate of the others
The authorities regard it as unlike
ly that any more were saved, as the
little island which the Santa Isabel
struck is only short distance from
the mainland, and in the event of other
rescues they believe reports would
have been received before now.
II u
are without additional information and
are preparing messages of coincidence
for the families of those believed lost.
