a thousand moths have emerged from
the pupa during a three-day period.
and the scene in the room at night
was singular in the extreme, for it
was filled with a mass of futtering
wings and palpitating life. The females
are sluggish and do not move far from
their position, but the males dart here
and there, seeking the individual mate
which seems most desirable.
Later, large quantities of eggs, lar.
vac, and perfect moths will be turned
out on the wild plants, in the hope
that they may settle down and breed
naturally. This may not be success,
for there may be some natural enemy
which is too strong for the species, but
it is notable fact that the develop
ment OF this district during the past
ten years has been so great that no
fewer than nine species of butterfly
| hitherto only known in the more equa-
torial reaches of the river have accli-
matized themselves here OF their own
accord.

SILK MOTH MAKES
DESERT TO BLOOM
SUDAN, ONCE THOUGHT BAR
rem, BECOMES A HIGHLY
PRODUCTIVE COUNTRY.

KHARTUM, Sudan.-Few people
probably realize how the Sudan has
progressed since the days when kltch-
ener finally crushed the power OF the
Mahdi and made Khartum a center tor
a progressive civilization west OF the
Red sea. In those days it seemed fool
ish to suppose that a sheer desert could
ever be made profitable, but although
it still holds sway over many hundreds
of miles, the fact remains that 1t IS
being pushed back.
The primitive irrigation methods OF
the Nile have been improved on scien-
tihc lines, and year by year more land
is made to yield a profitable return.
The benefit of scientific application
to problems of this kind is nowhere
more clearly seen than in this region,
for instead of wasting time and money
in trying to induce things to grow
which are not suited to the desert the
scientist bends his energies to the
task of finding out the kinds of ami
NAL or plant best suited to the condi-
tons, and experiments with the nat
ural productions with view to turn
ing them to economic use.
An interesting experiment OF this
kind is now being carried out at the
research center in Gordon college.
Along the banks of the Nile, and Of
ten some way into the desert, the
ricinus or castor oil plant grows free
ly in wild state Although possessing
the well known and valuable proper
ties in some degree, these plants do
not yield sufficient oil to make their
utilization remunerative in competi-
ton with the East Indian product.
1t happens, however, that species
of silk moth, the Aattacus ricini, feeds
upon this plant This large, handsome
moth produces very strong silk
not so fine, it is true as that of the
Bombyx mort, from which the best
silk is procured but still extremely
useful in these days when silk is used
for even more important purposes than
the manufacture Of fine raiment.
Large number of the eggs Of this
moth have been imported and the
larvae reared in the laboratories. Over

Henry Ford's offer for the Mussel

OBITUARY

John Heck Sr. was born In Germany
on December 6, 1885, At the age of
% ne immigrated to America. In those
days ocean travel had few luxuries.
and the journey was long and tedious.
lie came west as far as Wisconsin and
worked for different farmers in and
near West Prairie.
In 1867 he was married to Sophie
Henry, the young couple setting up
housekeeping in an old log school
house which they bought and remod-
eled, and moved upon a piece of land
they had secured, which land became

Up to two years ago he had enioyed
unusually splendid health and scarcely
knew the meaning of sickness, but
now the first breaking up of old age
was beginning to appear. Some vital
organs were failing to function. He
partially recovered for a time. but
this spring there was recurrence of
the trouble. Since April 20, he stead

: Read Your Character

Here is another striking example OF
the fact that characterology is really
nothing more than common sense OBJ

sort Of thing that We all practice in.
stinctively, In greater or less degree, in
forming our opinions, of others. And
the greater the number Of your years,
the more you will appreciate this state
ment.
You've often met people Of the droop.
ing type. They're distinct class, with
their bowed heads, their round shoul-
ders. Physically they are all slumped
down. You don't need any character.
olosist to tell you that they also droop
mentally, that you can't expect much
fight or optimism from them. You see,
physical signs actually do betray the
state and character Of the mind. The
drooper could not better advertise his
or her hopeless meekness and lack Of
backbone by sign worn around the
neck.
The droopers are the despaircrs, the
members Of the self-pity brigade. And
AZ in the case Of the "fopper," their
attitude either In the result or the
cause, or both. of their mental states.
II you want to do great work OF
humanity, pick out drooper and con-
duct a steady campaign to make him or
her straighten up, square the shoulders
and stan derect. These postures do not
