Things You Can't Believe.

India Is showing off for that pop
ular young tourist the Prince of
WALES. In Bikaner the natives held a
religious fire dance for him and he
saw that spectacle which has inter-
ssted and puzzled other noted Occi-
dentals. The Hindus danced through
the embers of "a great bonfire" They
snatched up glowing Goals and put
them in their mouths. Afterward
they ran to the Prince to show him
that their feet were not only unburnt
but were cool and moist. Members
OF the Princes staff, who very likely
suspected that there was fake about
the performance, tried to pick up
embers and burned their fingers.
Fire walking is as old as history.
a hundred wise men of the West have
set out TO explain 1t and failed. 1t
has been done in nearly all the coun
tries of Asia and in Spain, Bulgaria
end some Pacific islands, notably
Tahiti and Fiji. Occasionally West
erner has seemed to turn the trick;
Sir WILLIAM CRooKE saw DAVID d.
HOME hold a hot coal within his
cupped hands and blow on it.
There are no instances of fire walk
ing in the history of American magic.
Now and then, however, something
equally incredible is heard Of. 1t is
reported that one New York business
man, after a single reading of the
new revenue act of 1921, was able to
explain to his partner just what their
taxes would be. But the Society for
Psychical Research has not substanti-
ated the story.

Pity Poor Babe Ruth!

A judicial decision momentous to
thousands Of young men has at last
been rendered. It's thunder rolls
from the pen of the Hon. KENEsAw
MOUNTAIN LANDS, acting in his ca
pacity as High Commissioner Of
Baseball. It's lightning strikes the
Beaming Babe, Mr.. RUTH, the home
run addict.
Guilty Of transforming in the first
degree, RUTH is sentenced to forfeit
his share in the world series fund
and to remain out of baseball until
May 20. He will lose almost as much
money as he makes in one week in
vaudeville. And the sentence should
prevent him from enjoying the rigors
of the baseball training season.
While his team mates are working
in the Southern sun RUTH will be
basking in the Northern footlights,
far from the madding trainer.
Which is the bigger" demands
High Commissioner LANDS, "base-
ball or any individual in baseball?"
Well, spiritually it looks like tie.
On the physical side Babe RUTH
ought to be very much bigger by
May 20 than he is now. And base
ball, as Mr.. EBBETs so truly re
marked, is in its infancy. Even a
Federal Judge has not caused it to
grow up much.

Dairying in Semi-Arid Region

The outcome of the experiments
which the Federal authorities have
undertaken in the semi-arid region
Of Oklahoma to determine, whether
dairying and live stock production
can be carried on profitably there will
be awaited with special interest by
farmers who live in regions where
the rainfall is small.
Studies in crop production have been
carried on for years in Oklahoma
at farm near the town Of Wood
ward. Experiments in the growing OF
grain sorghums, broom corn, alfalfa,
rye and forage sorghums to prevent
soil blowing, and in winter wheat
for pasture, have been made. AS most
of these plants can be used for fodder,
the idea OF sending a herd of pure
bred cattle from the experimental
station at Beltsville, Maryland, was
conceived. Tests will be made to
determine possibilities of dairying
under conditions as they exist in the
Oklahoma semi-arid region. 1t Is not
going to be matter Of tonnage with
these various crops but OF results
achieved in milk and butter produc-
tion.
The cattle which are being used in
this Oklahoma test are part Of the
herd got together for countrywide
breeding experiment. The herd In
cludes 300 cows and fifty bulls. 1t is
Hoped by means of this herd to estab-
lish the best methods of breeding for
cattle improvement.
That the people of Woodward are
watching the experiment now under
way in Oklahoma, which if successful
should greatly enhance land values,
is shown by their purchase of 160
acres adjoining the governmental
farm. They have turned it over free
to the Federal authorities for a
period of ninety-nine years.

assessing import duties ask 'How car

Which are our debtor nations? Are
they not Great Britain, France, Italy
How are we going to help these nations
to pay their debts by charging them a
greater amount of duty than we charge
Germany and Japan?

Hungary's Tax Lesson.

Hungarian prices have risen by
leaps and the krone has dropped at
an equally rapid rate since it became
apparent that the scheme Of finan-
cial rehabilitation adopted last spring
by Finance Minister HEGEpUs was
doomed to failure. HEGEDus resigned
several weeks ago and retired to his
country place. Budapest is now look
ing wistfully after him and wishing
ii had supported his drastic pro.
gramme of taxation instead of doing
its best to defeat his ends.
A writer in the London Daily Mdil
shows why 1t was that the Hegediis
scheme of high taxes failed. The
peasant population would not pay.
why should We pay to keep lot Of
lazy parasites swilling in the luxury
of Budapest?" asked peasant Of the
interviewer. HEGEDUs started his
campaign by checking paper money
issues and endeavoring to reduce
Government expenses. He punished
profteers, taxed luxuries and cut
down the Government staff. But in
the end he had to go to the peasantry
with increased demands because his
original tax levies on the cities were
only partly successful. The peasants
hid their produce, crawled within
their shelter and said Let the cities
pay"
The urban population repudiated
HEGEDiis. Not until after he resigned
did they realize that as result Of
his vigorous programme they were
able to buy four times as much with
the Hungarian krone as the Aus
trians could buy with their krone of
equal par value, and that if the peas
antry went scot free Of taxes the
cities would still have been better off
than before. His fiscal policy made a
political martyr OF HEGEpUs, but he
has earned the reward of economic
vindication.

No All America Football Team.

[ There was a time when football eX-
perts took hard look at the Har-
ard-Yale-Princeton lineup and then
went home with the feeling that
they were we'll qualified to pick their
All America teams. No other games
mattered, no other players figured
All America on the gridiron in those
days-not a generation ago-was
bounded by Cambridge, Massachu
setts; New Haven, Connecticut. and
Princeton, New Jersey. SO far as
football was concerned. State Col
lege. Pennsylvania; Danville, Ken
lucky; Berkeley, California, and At
lanta, Georgia, might just as well
have been trading posts in the Hud
son Bay territory.
When Walter Camp originated the
All America idea in 1888 he named
five men from Princeton, three from
Yale and three from Harvard, and
called it q fine seasons work. In 1890
Pennsylvania man crept into the
list: in 1894 Cornell gained repre-
sentation on the All America. When
in 1897 HRscHBERdER of Chicago and
in 1893 SENECA OF the Carlisle Indians
won places in the all star combina
ton there was a great ado. Football
was growing by leaps and bounds, the
experts proclaimed.
It did grow by leaps and bounds
II has kept growing by leaps and
bounds, and It promises to keep or
growing in just that way. Progress
in the East has made it difrlcult
task to select an All East eleven
Remarkable headway in the South

the vast Southwest clamoring for
recognition too. no man, even in this

players TO warrant his naming an
