Green DYE From Corn Cobs.

Science has found a way of utiliz.
ing all corn cobs, short or long, in the
manufacture Of various chemicals. AS
the corn cob. consists Of celiulosc,
which is valuable for the making of
many products, such as celluloid and
paper, it is considered desirable to
save the substance of the cob. The
furfural, therefore, is taken from the
extract which is obtained by boiling
the cob in water and the celiulose can
thus be kept for other purposes.
- This liquid Is employed for many
purposes in Industrial chemistry. and
can be so treated that it will yield q
bright green dye, which is much liked
by women of fashion, says the Detroit
News.

Why "The lnnocents" Succeeded.

How easy it is now to understand
the prodigious success of '':The limo
cents Abroad" appearing as it did pre-
cisely at the psychological moment, at
the close of the Civil war, at the open
ing Of the epoch Of Industrial pioneer
ing, in the hour when the life Of bust
ness had become obligatory upon every
American man! How easy it is to I'M
derstand why it was so generally used
as a guidebook by Americans travelling
in Europe. 1t attacked not only the IL.
legitimate pretensions Of the human
spirit but the legitimate pretensions
also. It expressly made the American
business man as good as Titan and a
little better; it made him feel that art
and history and all the great, elevated.
admirable, painful discoveries Of hui
mankind were things not worth vast
ing ones emotions over.-Exchange

THE HALF BREED" AT REX
TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY

Following the decision of Oliver
Morosco, for years a leading stage
producer, to enter the motion pic
ture field, speculation has been rife
as to what he would bring to the

Although "western" in its title and

August II, Is, 49, The law provides
that every teacher who is to teach
in any given county attends the
county institute or in lieu thereof
a summer school. The law also pro-
yides that the County Superintendent
certify to the State Superintendent
all teachers who do not comply with
the law. If any teacher fails to at
tend the county institute, or sum-
mer school, his certificate is subject
to revocation.
May each teacher keep these facts
in mind and not cause any embar-
rassment by failing to attend the in
stitute. 1t would be a very unpleas-
ant duty for County Superintendent
to have to report some teacher who
did not meet the provision of the law,

compelled to do his duty.

Showing of Livestock.

Showing livestock 1T fairs has
number of deciIc1 advantages tc
the owners of good livestock" says
L. A. Richardson, animal husbandry
SPECIALIST, Extension Service, Univer-
sity of Tennessee.
Showing livestock gives the own
er Of the stock an excellent oppcrtu-
nifty to prepare his stock with that
of other owners. 1t gives him
chance to find out where he stands in
the game. The prize money offered
will pay the exhibitor for his expense
of showing. Exhibiting stock is one
of the best methods of advertising, a
fact which leaycc the knowledge
gained and the advertising clear
gain
"The spectator sees the best of all
classes of stock, what to look for in
each line, and models to follow in
improving his own herd. He also has
an opportunity to become acquainted
With the best individuals OF the
breed. Unfortunately, many farmers
visit the livestock exhibitions each
year and seemed to look up to it as
spectacle of amusement rather
than demonstlc ton from which
they might learn things of value to
their business"
The fair season will soon be here
and those who expect to exhibit live
stock should begin fitting them now.
