 Ram Club Cormprises Three FIocks.
 In Pennsylvania purebred ram clubs have been organized and are operating successfully. These clubs consist of three units of farm fiOcks each. A ram is purchased for each unit. He is used in each unit two years and then transferred from one unit to another until he has been used in all three units of the club. The county agent in McKean county aided in Organiz- ing three ram clubs during 1920, pro viding nine good rams of Shropshire breeding for the flOcks of members of these clubs. All of these rams are grandsons of Minton's 51, one of the greatest show rams at the Interna- tiOnal in the past few years. Rape pasture is being used to fatten lambs. These clubs will also procure purebred Shropshire ewes, so that each member will eventually have a purebred flock.
 Through the assistance given by the sheep specialist at the state agricul- tural college nine ram clubs were or ganized in Pennsylvania during 1920 $9,000 worth of purebred sheep were selected and purchased by farmers in the state in this connection. Sup plementing the organization of these associations and the introduction of new stock, 35 shearing, docking, and dipping demonstrations were held, at- tended by over 700 people.
 Utah has made notable progress in making the farm flock a factor of i'm portance in its livestock production. In Iron county, where practically all the rams are now purebred, the sheep breeders have concentrated on the RambOuillet and grow enough stock of this breed to supply largely the demand in southern Utah for pure bred animals. An outgrowth of this work is the RambOuillet sheep show, which is annually the big feature of the county fair in Iron county and at which the competition among sheep breeders Is exceedingly keen. The county agent in this county cO-operates actively with breeders in selecting and improving the management of the breeding stock.

Prehistoric Ruins.

The fascinating interest of the ancient ruins in Rhodesia, South Afri- ca, drew the attention of the arch eolOgists of the British association during it's recent meetings at Cape Town. Among these ruins the most conspicuous is the great Zimbabwe temple, which lies about POO miles in land from the Indian ocean. The old est of the ruined buildings are be- lfeved to date back at least to the days of King Solo:-On. It is thought that they were constructed by Semitic cOlOnists, whose chief object was gold mining, and who have left indications of their worship of Baal and Ashta- roth, as described in the Bible. Ex- perts believe that precious metals to the value of $3,OOO,OOO or $4,OOO,OOO must have been extracted from the gold reefs of Rhodesia in ancient times.

GAVE HIS NAME TO CALENDAR
Pope Gregory XIII Left Lasting Monu- ment-Other Famous Heads of
 the Roman Church.

Of all the long list of popes, Greg Ory XIII has probably left the most lasting monument, for he framed the calendar we use today, and it still bears his name. Gregory completed his calendar in 1882.
 In more modern times a pope of out standing personality was Plus K, who in 1S46 broke the age-Old tradition that the pope should never preach a ser mon. It happened in this way. A famous preacher of the time, Padre Ventura, whose eloquence attracted great crowds, had arranged to preach at a church in Rome, but at the last moment he was taken Ill and the dis appointed people were about to dis perse when suddenly the bells rang and it was announced that the sov- ereign pOntiff had arrived in the church. The pope entered the pulpit and preached sermon which the his torian of the time has described as simple, good, plain sermon, easily in- telligible to all" It was the first time a pope had preached for 300 years.

WHY THE NAME "MOoNSHINE"
In Earlier Years the Illicit Liquor Was Supposed to Be Made Only
 at Night.

America calls the liquor illicitly dis titled, especially in the Alleghany mountains, ''mOonshire" The appar- ent reason is that it is believed to be distilled at night and secretly trans ported without payment of tax or the authority of official permit. The fact Is, of course, that the secret stills work as hard in day as at night.
 England used the word in similar manner, though not in the same Sense' Over there mOonshine is liquor that has been smuggled into the country without payment of tax. The smuggling is usually done by small boats from the continent, that land at lonely shores at night, and the cargo is unlOaded by the light of the moon. It was this that gave the Lquor it's generic name.
 American mOonshine is raw, un- aged and often uncOlOred spirits. Brit ish mOOnshine may be the finest bran dy from France, the choicest rum from Jamaica. In the British Isles, especially Ireland, the popular name for home distilled spirits is mountain dew," be- cause it is in the hills that it is made, far from the prying eyes of the eX- else man.

Eakimos sIauqhter Musk ox.

The Eskimo hunts the musk OK with dogs from which they do not flee. On sighting a small band he lets one or two dogs loose when the older an1- mals immediately face outward in de fensive formation with calves in the center, and prepare to give fight. As soon as the herd is thus anchored" the Eskimo lets all his dogs loose and then proceeds to kill the musk OK with gun or bow and arrow. The musk OK are very fierce, and if a wounded bull charges the Eskimo, the dogs in turn immediately attack him, which gives the hunter a chance to shoot a second time. In this way the Eskimo is able to dispatch the whole herd.

 Recognizing the adaptability of sheep to a wide range of territory, extension workers of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture and the state agricultural colleges have steadily en- couraged the maintenance of a flock of sheep in addition to other live stock on the farm in sections where farm flOcks can be profitably handled. The introduction of purebred stock and the establishing of breeding f1ocks has been an important feature of ex-

AdaptabiIity in Raising Sheep.
 15 lambs at his home, all of which did well. The same problem was met in a different fashion at Padillas, Der nalillo County, N. Mex, where five club members secured from two to five orphan lambs each and raised them with a goat for a mother.
 The outlook for an increase in the number of farm fiocks generally throughout the United States is promis- ing. Adult farmers and farm boys and girls are finding the breeding of purebred sheep a profitable line of pro duction, fitting in well with farm ac- tivities already established. Extension workers generally should feel encour- aged in advocating the adding of flocks of sheep to live stock on farms where conditions are reasonably favorable to wool and mutton production.

 MAINTAIN FLOCK OF SHEEP IN ADDITION TO OTHER LIVE STOCK


son County, Neb., where the number of farmers keeping sheep was more than doubled in 1920 is notable example. Although the condition of the wool market was discOuraging, one group of 16 farmers in this county shipped total of 5000 pounds of wool to the state wool pool. In Jasper County, Mo-, sheep breeders association was organized through the activity of the county agent to encourage sheep grow ing, to pool the wool crop, and to fight the wolf menace. This organization took steps to encourage the intrOduc- tion of purebred stock, and held a CO., operative ram sale. at which all the grade rams owned by members of the association were sold and replaced by purebreds.
 Boys and girls club members have been encouraged to form sheep clubs and grow sheep, with marked success. Local banks have helped to finance these clubs, accepting the notes of club members and letting them run from 2 to 21s years in order to enable the club members to establish small flOcks and sell wool and surplus lambs before settling their indebtedness. Representatives of these banks have shown much personal interest in the work and have co-operated with ex- tension workers in giving club members encouragement and advice. In Lake County, Minn., the cashier of the local state bank made a personal visit dur ing the year to every boy and girl to whom money had been loaned for the purchase of sheep.
 Boys Raise Orphan Lambs.
 Orphan lambs in Carbon county, Utah, were taken care of last year by boys and girls who could not afford to start flocks by purchasing sheep. Those who could get milk or dried milk were given the lambs, and 19 boys and girls. altogether, took charge of 15S lambs. Only nine of these were lost during the entire season. Cows milk was found to be the most satisfactory food, but dried milk was very convenient for use on grazing fields. One boy kept
