New York State Gets Eighth Of

Analysis OF Distribution OF Income
by States Shows Diversity in Per
Capita Income in Different
States.

New York.-New York leads every
state in the Union with an annual In

one-eighth of the total national IN

by the National Bureau of Economic
Research, Inc. Nevada brings up the
rear of the procession of states with
SG5, 791 900 as the total income re-
ceived by its inhabitants.
These figures form part OF an ex

the evidence In favor OF II is already
very strong.
Another Paradox Explained.
The paradox OF the sun rising be-
fore II is actually up and setting after
1t has actually gone down is explained
by the bending Of light waves when
passing through the air. A stick when
placed in clear water seems TO bend
a light ray when sent through the air
does actually bend. The rays from
the rising sun are bent when they
strike the air envelope. This angle
varies according to well-known laws.
but on the average the light from the
sun Is bent 341s seconds of degree, so
that the upper limb of the sun when
first seen is actually half a degree be-
low the horizon. AS the angular diam.
eter of either sun, moon or star is less
than this fraction it follows that when
the sky is sufficiently clear the whole

the middle Atlantic states alone re-
ceived more than one-fourth of the

received nearly one-half of 1t. On,
the other hand, the people OF the
twelve Southern states, comorising
more than 81 per cent of the ,opula-
ton, received less than Is per tent Of
the total national income.
Farmers in the Pacific states In 1919
had an average income of more than
81, 800; in the west north central states
their average was $1,000. These fig
ures are In excess of the average of
81 ,160 for farmers in New England,
81 $40 In south Atlantic states and less
than $1,000 in the east south central
states
The total income Of the Seth Is de
rived largely from farming. The south
Atlantic states draw about one-fourtl
of their income from this source, and
the south central states about one
third. The only other group of states
that is equally dependent on farming
Is the west north central states, which
draw about one-third of their income
from this source. New England ant
the middle states draw less than pc
cent of the income from agriculture.

Some Interesting Paradoxes Are
Explained by Or. Humphreys Of
Smithsonian Institution.
HOTTER SUS-COLDER EARTH
o,d Sol Rises Before He 10 Up and
Sets Before II Goes Down-Bent
Rays Of Light Account for
This Paradox.

Washlngton.-A ralnstorm dries the
air; more goes up than comes down;
as the sun sets the air grows warmer;
the hotter the sun grows, the colder
the earth becomes; the sun rises be
fore IL is Up and sets after II Is down;
these are strong statements and sound
like a fairy tale, but they are all true.
Dr. w. J. Humphreys, quoted in the
annual report of the Smithsonian in
stitution which has just been made
public. explains all of them. They are
perfectly well known to scientists, If
not to laymen.
As everyone knows. DIR. Humphreys
declares, water evaporates and Is
taken up in the air as vapor. This ac-
ton is continuous all over the earth
and the atmosphere would soon be-
come very soggy il it weren't dried
out. Rain is the collection, or CON
densation. and precipitation of these
moisture particles. consequently the
more II rains the less water there Is
left in the atmosphere. or the drier
the air becomes.
Contradicts Old Saying.
The second of DIR. Humphreys para.
dOXeS seems fatty to contradict the
o Il saying whatever goes up mus

expresses it, vertical circulation in the
atmosphere is only gravtational nc

Grow DOG SAY HE COME

By ELMO SCOTT WATSON

XXTHEN Spotted Tall. backed BY
w the military whom he had aid
ed, usurped the head chieftalnship of
the Brule Sioux, his high-handed act
was bitterly resented. Chief Crow Dog
(Kangi Sunka) took a vow TO kill the
head chief II ever he disgraced the
name of the Sichangu (Brules).
Years passed. Spotted Tail. drunk
with power. misused his high office for
personal ends. His people murmured
but were powerless. Then he coveted
the wife of Medicine Bear and, covet-
Ing, took her. Crow Dog relative
Of Medicine Bear, remembered his
vow. On August 5, 1881, he met Spot
ted Tail and shot him dead, after
which he gave himself up.
He was tried at Deadwood, S. D.,
convicted of murder and sentenced to
be hanged. Grow Dog asked permits
sion to say farewell to his family,
promising 10 return on the day set
for the execution.
When Grow Dog did not show up the
next day, Indian police were dispatched
to get him. He was not at home and
his wife told them that the chief had
wished to return to prison alone and
would surely keep his promise. The
next day the chief walked into the
jail at Rapid City. Grow Dog say
he come" was his laconic reply to
the surprised greeting of his jailer.
Meanwhile efforts were being made
to save his life by stay Of execution.
His case was carried to the Supreme
court of the United States which ruled
that the federal courts had no jurisdic-
ton over crime committed by one
Indian against another on reserva-
ton. So Grow Dog walked out Of
prison free man.
Ten years later Crow Dog was in
the limelight again, as one of the
Brule leaders who fed from the Rose
bud agency during the Ghost Dance
craze to join the Ogallalas In the Bad
Lands. The Brule chief was soon con-
vinced that their cause was hopeless
and he counselled surrender.
But the irreconcilables were still
eager for war. They caught up theil
rifles and threatened to shoot those
who wavered. Seeing this Grow DOG
drew his blanket over his head. 81

That Is one of the reasons why we do
