e the official
name is the estate of Rhode
Island and Providence Planta-
tons" 1t originated from two
distinct settlements. The first
was made by Roger Williams in
.163& He was the pastor of.
church in Salem. AS he advo-
Gated radical reforms he was
ordered to return to England,
but fled to the Narragansett
tribe of Indians. From them he
obtained a tract of land and
called the town which he estab-
lished Providence, in token of
Gods mercy which had so far
provided for him.
About the same time Mrs.
Anne Hutchinson and her fol-
lowers were expelled from Mas
Sachusetts on account of theo-
logical dispute. She made her
way to the island of Aquidneck,
which she purchased from the
Indians for 40 fathomS of white
Wampum, 20 hoes and 10 coats.
The name of this island was
changed to the Isle of Rhodes,
probably after the famous Greek
island in the Mediterranean.
BY common usage it became
known as Rhode Island. In 1862
Charles ii gave Rhode Island
very liberal charter, and this re-
manned in force until 1871, when
a new state constitution was
adopted by mass conventions,
and two years later another new
constitution was legally voted.
The change in constitutions
caused what was known as
DORIS rebellion.
The entrance of Rhode Island
into the Union in 1890 completed
the list of the original thirteen
states. Though Rhode Island is
the smallest Of all the states,
with only 1.24S square miles, it
is very thickly populated and
has five presidential electors,
which is more than those of a
number Of states of much larger
territory.

AVERAGE Life Of Motor Cara.

AS highway transportation develops
and passenger cars and truck become
practically the sole means Of road
travel, the proportion Of first pur-
chasers Of cars and trucks in the total
Of car sales will decrease, and the
demand for new cars each year will
become more and more nearly equal
to the number Of cars which drop out
Of service. For this reason it is be-
coming increasingly important for the
trade to know how many cars will be
required for replacement Of those with
drawn from service. Analysis Of regis
tration, production, export and import
figures over a period Of years leads
to the conclusion that the average life
Of two million cars retired. from
service in the last seven years was
about So years.-Scientific American.

STOCK
DEPLETION OF RANGE GRASS
Injury Caused by Premature Grazing
and Lack of Utilization Of
Forage Crop.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.l
Range depletion is due in a large
measure to premature grazing and to
lack Of uniform utilization Of the for
age crop, investigations now being car
rfed on at the Great Basin experiment
station by grazing specialists in the
forest service Of the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture show. These
experiments, which have been con-
Quoted over q four-year period, have
been for the purpose of ascertaining
just how certain range bunch grasses
are affected by different systems Of
grazing.
It was found that the yield Of violet
wheat grass when removed by cutting
once in season, at the time the seed
crop matured, was four and two
tenths times as large as when it was
removed four times in a season and
three and eight-tenths times as large
as when heritage was removed twice
in the season.
Native bronze grass, on the other
hand, yielded six times as much when
harvested twice during the season,
but the yield from one cutting was
three and three -tenths times as much as
when it was removed four times. This
means in range revegetation that the
grass native there must be taken into
consideration and a system Of grazing
used that is suitable to it.
The experiments also showed the
striking difference in water content
In herbage as the season advances. In
the LEAKAGE Of the violet wheat grass
harvested once in season, just before
seed maturity, the water content aver
aged Al per cent. Plants grazed twice,
late in the season, contained an aver
ap M.-re content Of 81 per cent,
whit }@Q1cs cropped four times in
seast Contained an average Of 70
