Horse Raising States.

Ninety per cent of the 25,0O0,000
horses and mules in the United States
are on farms, and only about 10 per
cent are in cities, towns, villages and
other nOn-agricultural work, according
to advance figures of the 1920 census.
1t is natural that the ten central
states of the great corn belt-OhiO,
Indiana. Illinois. Iowa, Missouri, Kan
sas, Oklahoma, Nebraska and the two
DakOtaS-where coarse grains are
raised in plenty, should be the great
reservoir of horse and mule prOduc-
ton rearing approximately three
fifthS Of all the horses and mules in
the country.
The farmers of this section prOduc-
ing horses and mules, supply their own
needs, furnish work stock for adjOin-
ing farms where horses and mules are
not reared, also the heavy drafters,
wagon horses and eXpreSSers wanted
in cities. towns and villages, and the
farm chunks for eastern states where
horse and mule production is not so
common.

New Sports for France.

Thrilling, to say the least, if not
very sanguinary, is the latest sport
taken up by the sporting element of
France, when they pit two cocks to-
gether, not to see which will kill, but
to see which will OutcrOw the other in
given time
A cock according to the figures of
the sport, will crow on an average of
60 times per hour, but when trained
for competition will go well over the
hundred mark in an hour, which is
the time set for the contests.
Competing birds are shut up in a
low dark coop and fed on millet and
chopped beef we'll saturated with wine
and beer The lOwneSs of the roof of
the coop will keep the cock from
stretching his neck to crow and when
he is released for the contest he will
be all ready to make up for lost time
Matches are made for side bets and
huge sums of money are wagered on
the results of such contest.

Home avinq Hearts Are Best.

A bride with a house is bride
worth having in Berlin the London
Mail declares, and matrimOny has
doomed for house ownereSSeS. Not
even during the war years were there
as many marriages as last year. Dur
ing 1911 Berlin registers showed 37,79S
marriages, while 53,691 took place in
1920.
One of the chief attractions of mar
riage is the certainty of getting a
house, for the authorities give the
bride and bridegroom preference over
ordinary people, and bachelor anx-
iOuS to settle down, finds that even in
expensive Berlin married life with a
home of your own is cheaper than no.

Tricks in All Trades.

Notwithstanding the efforts of Ii
brarians at the Central library to CO.
operate with school teachers in keep
ing reviews of classics out of the hands
of high school pupils, who have dis
covered that required classics need
not be read if one only can get ones
hands on reviews, the pupils cOntrive
in some instances to get the books
that mean shortcuts in their courses.
All of which explains, according to
librarians, why the Edinburgh Review
was among the library's best sellers
last week. A Shortridge pupil discov-
cred a synopsis and comments on
''Marmion" and Lady of the Lake" in
some dusty volume of the Edinburgh
paper published in 1900. Other pupils
were clipped off, and so the Edin-
burgh Review became suddenly pOpu-
ar.-IndianapOliS News.

NOT ALL VICIOUS
Hunter Revised Opinion of Bad
Tempered Mule.
Strange Desire for Offspring Pressed
the Springs of That zone
Touch of Nature"

When l was first in Africa | used
to ride a mule. In some ways these
animals are better suited to the coun-
try than ponies-they are tougher and
do not contract horse sickness as east
ly, writes Llewelyn Powers in the
New York Evening Post.
The particular mule which l rode
was distinguished by having the most
vicious temper of any animal | have
ever known. 1t was quite impossible
to saddle it unless | put a twitch on
its nose l had to carry one on the
end of my kibokO all the time.
As soon as ever it saw me approach
with the saddle it would give a Sc
ries of the most horrible squealing
screams and begin kicking and kick
ing like the very devil. Sometimes
it would be in so villainOus a mood
that, besides the twitch, 1 would have
to get boy to hold up one of its
front legs. However, it would give
me no more trouble when l was once
in the saddle, and it seemed quite
Indifferent as to the length of the
journey | took, never appearing to be
in the least tired
Every time l heard it begin scream
ing / used to say to myself: "What
a devilish sOn-Of-agun you are, with
out a single redeeming point. | can
never feel anything but hostility to
such an ilI-natured brute"
Well, do you know, before | had
seen the last of it l felt altogether
different. And this is how it came
about:
The mule was mare, and wheI l
was not riding would run out on the
veldt with the other horse mares of
the farm. 1t was the business of an
old Swahili to look after them and
see that they were driven back to the
stOckade every night.
This boy came running to me- one
amazement on his face, to say that
the mule had a fOal. Now, by the
laws of nature I knew it was impOs-
sible for mules to breed. SO after
| had listeEed to his story | simply
told him that he was a liar. He went
away very chagrined at this, swear
ing that he was speaking the truth.
Presently | heard the clatter of
hOOfs, indicating the approach of the
horses driven toward the homestead
| by the old Swahili at the appointed
hour I went out to watch them pass
and while they were still some way
off saw to my utter astOnishment a
| little creature lettering by the side OF
the mule However, when they came
nearer still it became obvious that it
was the fOal of one of the mares.
Under the urge of the maternal in
! stinct the mule had driven the mare
away and was now proposing to moth
er the little thing, although of course
she had no milk whatever to give IT
| | drove them all into a large -arC
and with difficulty got the mare anC
foal together again.
On that occasion l was pretty an
nOyed.
Evil BRUTE" [ thought; playing
the fool with the mare like that"

Clock Tells the Distance.

BY sounding with sound waves in
stead of a steel cable Frencfsnan
has been able TO determine the depth
of the ocean in a few seconds. where
the ordinary process requires minutes
and hours. In contrast to the usal
equipment Of cable, reels and donkey
engine he equips himself simply with
a quantity of high explosive, micro
phone, and chrOnOmeter. DetOnat-
ing charge of explosive in the wake
of his moving vessel, he hears in his
micrOphOne both the noise of detOna-
ton and the echo produced by reflec-
ton from the bottom. Reading the
time interval from the chrOnOmeter
and knowing the speed of sound in
water. he is able to calculate the
oceans depth at that point. Tests
have shown that the method yields
sufficiently accurate results for prac-
teal purposes

BADGE GAVE HIM DISTINCTION
Persian Youngster Had Method in
madness" Which American Nurse
Could Not Understand.

Among my patients at the diSpen-
sary in Teheran was a small boy with
a charming and impudent face, writes
Mary w. GriscOm in Asia Magazine.
He wore the sleeves and part of the
back of coat and enough of pair
OF loose trousers to hitch up with
both hands occasionally. When /
asked him where he lived, he said,
Anywhere" At every question he
simply shrugged his shoulders, I'M
clasped his hands and repeated, ''Who
knOwS! The nurse thought he was
five. One of the patients guessed
eight. But j insisted that so much
philosophy could not have been de-
velOped under 10 and, since he had
his 12-year molars, | put him down
at that age. He refused to remain
in any permanent shelter and pre-
ferred to live like a little gypsy. He
had contracted typhus on the street
and recovered on the street. One of
the members of the Near East COM
mission had referred him to me be-
cause of some ugly sores on his head.
He improved steadily under the treat
ment, but begged me to give him the
medicine instead of making him come
to the dispensary. But l knew he
would gamble the medicine away and
insisted that he come for a dressing
every other day At the Persian New
Year, when it was already growing
warm, he appeared with heavy felt
cap, a new coat and an overcOat,
which he said his employer had given
him for he bOaSted of being a labor
ing man. His pay was a quarter of
a cent a day and his food, a flap of
bread. When his head was cured and
the bandages removed, he lamented
loudly and rushed off, dragging back
by the hand the member of the COM
mission who had brought him to me
and begging tearfully and elOquently
to have his beautiful bandages again.
Day after day he returned and begged
for his bandages. Finally | learned
that in the intervals between working
in the tobacco shop for a quarter of
a cent a day, he had lucrative employ
ment as a beggar-and the bandage
gave him pathetic distinction.

SaWdust Takinq Place of Coal.

One of the most recent attempts
to solve the heating question consists
OF a special stove which burns saw
dust. The stove consists of a cylindri-
cal casing provided with suitable
holes for draft purposes. and a con
tainer which is packed with sawdust
Once ignited the tightly packed saw
dust is said to burn slowly and even
ly, giving considerable heat. A single
charge of Sawdust burns twelve hours
The action, we are told, is very much
the same as coal as far as smooth
burning and the intensity of heat are
concerned.
