them, about 81 per cent being rice
crops; per cent wheat; 38 per cent
other pulse and food grains; per
cent cotton, jute and other fbers, and
, per cent oil seeds. Jute cultivation
has been very profitable. The mineral
products, besides mica, rubies and
jade, include salt, the production of
which is about 1891 600 tons In 1919
the output Of coal In India was 22,62s,-

irish Landlords Get Out.

Lord Cough like many another Irish
landowner, is leaving his home In the
old country. Tough Curta castle in
County Galway has lately been dis
mantled and its fine old contents dis
posed of.
The castle which stands overlook
ing the Tough, is wonderfully pictur-
esque. 1t was built for Lord GOrt by
Nash himself at a cost Of SAC. 900 and
was purchased by the Coughs after
the Irish famine of 1S47, when the Wis
count of his day ruined himself in
the endeaVOr to feed his starving ten
antry. The present home of the GOrts
in the Isle of Wight. East Cowes cas-
tie, was built by Nash. who designed
it for his own occupation.
Another valuable property to go is
Sir Hew Hamilton Dalrymple's roman
tic home, Lucille, on the ruins of Tan
talon castle, which figures in Mar
mion." The property, with fine acre
age, includes the greater part of North
Berwick. Sir Hew, ii is good TO hear,
is at least not selling The Bass Rock
in the Firth Of Forth, which Is his
London Mail.

CIVIC SERVICE AWARDS

In Marion, Ind. they have a scout
civic service committee through which
any call for community service is pre-
sented The council has worked out
8 plan whereby each scout that assists
In a civic enterprise or good turn is
given credit for the number of hours
he works and awards are made ac-
cordingly.
For % hours service red bar is
given, for so hours, blue bar; for
100 hours, a gold bar. Six Marion
Scouts have already earned this gold
bar. Some of the civic service done Is
as follows: Placed Christmas seal
posters, furnished ushers and scout
trumpeters for community sing, chart
ed a cemetery locating all soldier
graves, took part in Safety First eX-
hibit, made city wide survey, as
sisted at Memorial Day services as
ushers, doing traffic duty, parking

OBSERVE EQUALITY IN RINGS
Equip Man of Her Choice With
Wedding Symbol.

Custom has decreed that when a
man receives from the woman ne
loves a promise that she will be his
wife. he should forthwith buy her a
ring, 1t is an excellent custom. ac-
cording to the jeweler.
Most ancient and modern lovers
have observed it. but modern lovers
are going one better. Instead of one
ring, two are bought, and they are
not both for the lady. Jack and jill
together wear the sign OF their en-
gagement.
Equality of sex in voting and in
the eyes Of the law is responsible for
this new idea. according to the Louis
Vile Courier-Journal. For, mark you,
two pockets bear the strain. No mod
ern. self-respecting Jill would allow
her Jack to cater for his own finger.
And when the plain gold circlet fol
lows, again ring equality is carried
our.
1t Is no new custom for men to
wear wedding rings. They have done
so for ages But 1t Is new idea that
they should not have to pay for them
The up-to-date bride insists on doing
her share, and buys the ring for her
groom, while he purchases the sign Of
her new estate.

SCOUT SAVES 2oo-PoUNDER

Pulling a 2OO-pOund man out of the
water would be considered quite
stunt by most anybody, even with
terra firma underfoot." observes the
Brooklyn Eagle, but Albert Rowe OF
Park avenue. Babylon, boy scout
who barely moves the scale-beam at

chunk to another in Argyle lake and
with the aid of hockey stick dragged
2OO-pound Benjamin +. McGuckin
ashore, then rescued Mrs. McGuckin

MS attention to Mrs Joseph H. Ste
Venson, also in the water, when others
stepped in and took over the job. AL
pert then Skated merrily away and the
McGuckins had job finding out later
the identity of their young rescuer.
Young Rowe doesn't "see much in this
nero stuff anyway" and declined to ac-
cept any reward when Mr.. McGuckn
onered practical recognition of the
boys deeds.

Fur Industry.

Up to within century of the pres
ent time, raw furs were one Of the
most important products of this coun-
try. commercially speaking, Immense
quantities of them were exported to
Europe, where they were dressed, dyed
and manufactured into garments.
This natural resource has been
largely destroyed by the killing off Of
our fur-bearing animals. AT the pres
ent time we are largely dependent
upon foreign countries for supplies Of
skins.
Within recent years a great fur
dyeing and manufacturing industry
has been built up in the United States,
employing 1900 operatives. We now
import annually raw skins valued at
S69, 100000, and of dressed skins only
$40O0,OOO worth.

A liberal Education.

Next TO the study Of language the
study Of good literature should be
named. To read good boOks-the best
books TO read them, not always with
that chronological thorOughness which
Mr.. Ruskin enjoins but slowly and
carefully. getting the full force OF
every sentence, and the full signlfi-
canoe and beauty Of every figure and

mastering the art or expression. In
such reading one becomes familiar

very important one, has been altOgeth-

ties enable one TO judge, no submersi-
Bile vessel has yet been constructed
in which men can live for more than
few weeks, continuously, without
deteriorating, mentally and physi-
cally, owing TO the abnormal condi-
lions prevailing on board. Man is an
adaptable creature, and possibly, in
the course of century or so, race
OF human beings may be evolved
which can exist, comfortably with
out fresh air, exercise or change of
scene. In the meantime, surfaceyships
