Wisconsin Economist Called Tt

B. II. Hubbard, head of the depart
ment of agricultural economics in
the college of agriculture of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, has been called
to Washington, D. c., by H. c. Tay-
lor, chief of the bureau of markets,
to head a committee to study nation
al problems. Mr.. Hubbard will leave
Jan. 20 and will be away a month.
The committee will try to devise
plans for more fundamental study
of the statistics gathered by the
United States Bureau of Markets
Not only will the matter of the best
use of the facts be studied but meth
DDS of securing of additional valu-
able information will be sought. The
report which the committee will

INSECTS HAVE SIXTH SENSE
Ants Provided With "Fee!ers," Which
Are to Them of the Highest
Importance.

All insects and a certain number Oh
other animals are provided with APP
pendages which the ordinary man calls
feelers.
These feelers provide their owners
with mysterious sixth sense when
we ourselves lack-a sense which IS
certainly not sight, hearing, =or SMELL
though possibly it may be very slight
sense of touch.
1t is by stroking with their feeiers
that ants discriminate between FRIEND
and foe. You may paint an ant blue
or cover him with a strange smelling
compound, but his fellows will never
make a mistake.
The lobster, the prawn, and the
shrimp use their feelers to guide them
when they are swimming fail first top
speed. Bees and butterflies seem to
use them for examining flowers be-
fore they begin to sip the honey.
The whiskers of the cat and the rat
are stiff hairs to the roots Of which
are attached very sensitive nerves, Ii
is supposed that they act as guides
when their owner is MOVING in the
dark. If they touch an obstacle, an
instantaneous message to the brain
enables the cat or rat to make quick
movement to one side or the other.

PLANTS POWER OF MOTION
Enthusiasts Who Have Studied the
Subject Say That Many Un-
doubtedIy Possess 1T.

One Of the chief popular distinctions
between vegetable and animal life is
that animals have power of choice and
of voluntary motion, while vegetables
and plants grow only mechanically.
But the microscope seems TO show
that many vegetable forms can move
as easily as can animals.
There is a plant called volvox glo-
bator, so minute that millions Of it
could be put in drinking glass, which
is seen to whirl like top across the
field of the microscope. Some plants
found in ponds, which are still more
minute, move habituaiiy, as with an
apparent purpose.
Naturalists who have given closer
study than others to climbing plants
state that these seem to exercise the
liberty of choice Their tendrils, in
climbing over pieces of wood with
holes, will try one hole after another
until they find one that pleases them.
One investigator saw tendril with
draw itself after having pushed itselt
in a hole for sc hours.

Bats Wings Wonderful.

The bat, whose wings are a mass
of nerves, which enable it to avoid
objects in flight, is declared by seiea1.
fists to be one of the most wonder
full of all animals in its physical
makeup. 1t is claimed for it that ii
has from one to three senses that nc
other animal has. So delicate are the
nerves of it's wings and SO responsive
to air vibrations that bat can be
blinded and turned loose in room
where several objects are hanging
from the ceiling by cords, and it will
fly around them without touching any
object, the nerves catching the ''feel'
of the objects as the bat draws near
them. Naturalists in experimenting
with bats have whirled a cane over
their heads SO rapidly that the cane
appeared to be a misty funnel. On
their heads they wore caps Of vivid
eolors that bats dislike, and would
frequently. fly at. The bats would
rush at them until the whirling cane
was reached, and then dart down,
touch the cap and fly away, passing
between the orbit Of the cane with
out being touched, demonstrating a
keenness Of observation and delicacy
of speed judgment unequaled by any
other living animal.

Characteristics of Genius.

Most people perhaps think of great
literary or scientific men, or other
men of genius, as retiring and inclined
to live the life of recluse. Some OF
them have been of that type, but not
all, by any means. Browning didn't
belong to those who disliked company
and a good dinner; Dickens wasn't OF
that crowd; Thaekeray did not be-
long; neither did Dick Steele, Sam
uel Johnson, Oliver Goldsmith, Joshua
Reynolds, or other worthless Of the
Eighteenth century. Tennyson loved
his quiet and Carlyle grumbled in his
garrett, both to their own discontinue
and with a loss to their readers.
Among the New England notables OF
the middle of the last century, only
Hawthorne was downright unsociable.

To Preserve China.

Many lover of fine china has been
heartbroken to discover her choice din
ner or tea set lined with hair-like
cracks. Hot tea or chocolate poured
into dainty cups cracks them in
Stantly.
A Chinese merchant gave this bit OF
information when a rare tea set was
purchased from him. Before using
delicate china place it in a pan of
cold water. Let it come gradually to
the boil and allow the china to remain
in the water till cold" This tempers
the china, and it is capable of with
standing the sudden expansion caused
by the heat. There is no need of re-
peating the treatment for a long
time. "-TOronto Globe.

really did"

well" continued the young man,

you held at at (naming a city

examined me and told me / had tuber-
culosis i didn't believe him. / didn't
feel sick and so I thought it was all
bunk. Then you began writing to me
to find out if I was doing anything
about it and you kept on writing until
/ made UP my mind that perhaps I'd
better get busy. So l went to a doc
tor and he told me the same thing
that Dr. Pleyte did. Then l followed
your and and DIR. Pleyte's advice and
went to a sanatorium.
I'm a well man today and l have
you and the Wisconsin Anti-Tubercu-
loSis Association to thank for it,
And back of the Wisconsin Anti
tuberculosis Association are the peo-
pie who year after year have pur-
chased Christmas seals and furnished
the financial support for it's Iife-sav-
ing enterprises of which the Free
Chest Clinic is but one. 1t is to them
that the young man owes his life,
1t is impossible to estimate how
many lives have been saved by the
Travelling Clinic. Since it was estab-
lished over 200 clinics have been held
and more than 1000 persons have
been examined. One-ffth of them
have been found to be tuberculosis,
many of them in need of sanatorium
care. And the manager of the knit
ting mill is by no means the only one
who has taken treatment in a sana-
forum and returned home with re-
stored health.
So convincing have been the proofs
of the value of the work which the
Free Chest Clinic is doing and so
great is the growing demand for it's
service that another clinic team is to
be established if this years sale of
Christmas seals is large enough 10
provide the additional funds neces-
sary. During the last year, even with
the cooperation Of local chapters and
branches of the Red Cross, women's
clubs, local branches of the state anti
tuberculosis association, and other or
ganizAtions, it has been impossible to
send the clinic to many communities
which we're eager for its service.
