BLOWING A LINE ASHORE.


Wrecks on rock shores, reasoned
W. S. Crouch of New York, occur
when the wind is on shore. He
sought to take advantage of this fact
in deyising some means for getting
line from ship to land-the opera
ton which usually takes so much
time and is 50 fraught with peril.
A line-carrying buoy was the result
of his work.
The buoy was recently tested at
Rockaway Beach, says the Scientific
American, and did all that its in
ventor asked Of it. Released from
the ship, it blew steadily toward
shore, the line unwinding behind it
as it went, until finally it was
dragged out of the surf with the
line intact In addition to its use
in this manner, it is available for all
the regular purposes of the ordinary
buoy.

English Newspaper Says Native of
That Country Devised the First
wheat Stripper."

One of the most curious incidents
in the history of the invention OF
agricultural implements occurred
not in America, but in south Aus
tralia, according to the Manchester
Guardian.
In 1912 there was such scarcity
of labor in that colony for the har-
vesting of the crops that many farm
ers were in two minds whether they
would continue wheat growing at all
The situation was saved by a miller
named John Ridley, who invented a
"stripper,0 which would both reap
and thresh the corn at the same
time. The idea came to him from
an article in an encyclopedia, which
was illustrated by woodcut of a
crude continuance used by the sol
diers of Julius Caesar to strip the
heads of the wheat grown during
their campaign in Gaul. Mr.. Rid
ley's "stripper' at once reduced the
cost Of harvesting from 48 to Z cents
a bushel, and started Australian
wheat-growing on its prosperous ca
reer.

FEEDING EXPERIMENTS.

1t seems that the processes which
have been developed and described
for manufacturing cattle food from
sawdust, in which part Of the cell
lulose is converted into sugars, have
been based more upon laboratory ex-
periments and theoretical deduc-
lions than actual feeding expert
ments. The forest products labora-
tory prepared sufficient quantity
of the food to supply three cows for
a sufficient time to indicate the de-
STABILITY of conducting experiments
on larger scale. The Wisconsin ex-
pertinent station co-operated in this
work, and the results we're SO en-
couraging that it has been decided
to feed larger number Of animals
a sufficient length of time to reach
definite conclusions.

MEN CRITICIZED.

Every woman knows that men,
though interesting creatures, are
tiresome, hard to control and are
prone to seek their own way in spite
of warnings" according to Mrs. 81.
A. L. Fisher, wife of the president
of the British national board of edu-
cation. She told an audience at the
Royal Sanitary institute congress
that most men become i'll entirely
through faults of their own and
"sow seeds of trouble for themselves
by eating too much, eating the wrong
things, drinking too much, being
lazy, keeping late hours or living
in Theoretically sealed rooms"

in the First Presbyterian Sunday

IDEAL FOR SLIPPERY ROADS
At Last Here Is Motor Car That
Can Not skid, Under Any
Circumstances.

A true nonskidding motor car, de-
scribed with Illustrations in the
Popular Mechanics Magazine, has
been evolved by Czechoslovakian
inventor in which the driving mem
bers, are feet and legs instead OF
wheels, and which propels itself by
heel-and-toe walking action. The
four legs of the odd contrivance are
attached to the throws Of crank
shaft in such way that as it re-
wolves they are first lifted, then car
ried forward and lowered, and
again carried backward. Another
part causes them to rock backward
at the top as they descend, which
brings the heel of the foot in con-
tact with the ground first. AS the
shaft continues to turn, the heel
gives a backward showing impulse
and rises. The toe then comes into
contact and imparts shove. The
throws of the crankshaft are SO
spaced that the eight heels and toes
follow each other with their I'M
pulses in rapid succession and at
exactly equal intervals.

Historians Credit Herod With Much
Political Sagacity, as Shown by
His Successful Life.

Herod was a mighty builder. As
such he We'd with Solomon. AS a
sub-king of Palestine he showed con-
summate political ability by keep
ing in' with the Romans while hay-
ing his way in most things, even to
leaving his authority to his son,
'sHerod the Tetrarch," who fell in
love with his brothers wife, He
rodias, and before whom Solome,
her daughter, danced "and pleased
Herod." According to the fatter-
ing Josephus, the great Herod came
of the proud Jewish stock which re-
turned from Babylon, but his de-
tractors asserted he was of the hated
race Of the Philistines. The story
runs that Idumean robbers attacked
Askalon and carried off Antipas, his
grandfather, who in time became
governor Of Idllmea and begat Anti
pater, favorite of Alexandra, the
Maccahean queen Herod the Great,
who united the sagacity Of his grand
father to the craft of his father,
ruled in his own name with great
magnifcence, while the onetime
heroic Maccabee line came to an
end in palace intrigues.

PROPOSED rsNArIoS AMENDMENT
TO STATE CONSTITUTION

The twelfth and thirteenth amend
ments are the ones which have aroused
most dHcussion and to the minds OF
some are most dangerous.
1t concerns taxation. The present
constitution requires an equal and uni
form arte of taxation. The two
proposed amendments give the Gen
eral Assembly power to provide a sys
tenn of taxation and permits income
tax on income from all sources. with
reasonable exemptions.
There is an Indiana Taxpayers Pro-
tective Association at indianapolis that
is in Il state of terror over these two
amendments They insist that a poor
laborer having hundred dollars
worth of household goods ought 10 pay
exactly the same tax per dollar the
man who has a Persian rug worth five
thousand dollars. Now the question
is: should a man worth one humid
red dollars pay the same tax on his
mite az the man worth million?"
