we never see everything that is about
us, and no two of us ever see precisely
the same things. Each sees what his
previous training and his habit Of mind
nave prepared him to see. When an
American scientist was in Patagonia
ne fell in with card player who told
him that always after the first few
rounds of the game he knew some Of
the cards as they were dealt; he rec
ognized them by difference so slight
that another man could not detect it
when it was pointed out to him.
Now, the scientist mentioned is an
0rnitholOgist, and he says that this
same prenaturally sharp-eyed man was
greatly surprised when he was told
that half dozen kinds of sparrows
were feeding and singing about the
house. He had never seen any differ
ence in them, he said. In size, color,
shape and actions they were all alike,
and they all sang and twittered alike,
so far as he had ever noticed.
Native Patagonians, like other saw
age peoples, have very keen eyes for
certain things, things which their
modes Of life have made it indispensa-
BILE that they should notice. In other
words, they are specialists, and as a
matter of course they excel in their
own particular line. But it does not
follow that they have better eyes than
are possessed by men Of civilized coun-
tries.

AnpeaI For Fair Deal

Whereas. the state of Wisconsin is
recognized as one of the greatest DAIRY

main source Of revenue of the farmers

state depends upon agriculture III It's
different branches, and, whereas 1t
has been shown officially that 4OO,0OO,-
600 pounds of fats We're used III the
United States the past year IN compe-
tition with butterfats, thereby replac-
ing that amount, of buterfat, and tig-
uring the price of butterfat at 40 cents
per pound, which is very conservative
would amount to S160,0OO,0Oo. cohse-
uuently diminishing the farmers puf-
chasing power to that extent, winch
places the farmer in position where

chase only the bare necessities OF lie

almost impossible for him to educate
his children as he would like ana
should, and purchase the many neces-
stiles and conveniences that are que
