GROWING GRAIN IN ALASKA
Frozen subsoil Helps to Retain the
Moisture When the Rainfall
Is Light.

In many parts Of Alaska the
frozen condition Of the earth is not
permanent except under the layer Of
moss. When this is removed the
stratum of permanent ice recedes,
and agriculture becomes possible,
says the Detroit News, the ice thaw-
ing to greater depth in summer
than it freezes in winter.
At the government station at
Rampant, which is situated within
about so miles of the Arctic circle,
grain growing has been carried on
successfully for more than 30 years.
A layer of moss was removed from
the land. At that time the soil was
frozen to within eight inches of the
surface. The ice layer has now re-
coded to a depth of six or seven feet,
and is still being gradually lowered.
The presence of this frozen sub
soil has its advantages in Alaska,
where the rainfall is light and dry
seasons sometimes prevail At such
times the moisture from below is
brought to the roots of plants by

TEACHING or SUMMER SCHOOL
How Two Youths Gave Fearful and
Wonderful" Course In English
Literafure.

/ am sure that nay first summer
school venture was unique, writes
Stanley T. Williams in the North
American Review. In a small Con-
necticut town another youth and
myself engaged a hall and sold sea-
son tickets for lecture course in
English literature. We descanted
upon worthless who, because of death
and distance, were unable to deny
our ibels. We filed the room with
matrons prominent in charitable
work, depressed business men and
satirical friends. Bill lectured one
day, j the next. When off duty be
or l sat in the front row and sig
nailed running Morse code to the
other, as the interest Of the audience
ebbed and flowed. The lecturer
never dared look at his victims, SO
overcome was he by his own fatuous-
ness. His knees clicked audibly and
his expression was that Of q man
proposing marriage.
/ recall that the last day was
riotous. A brawl arose concerning
the distinction between sensuous
and sensual. Bill had said we ought
to stir up discussion. ("Get 'em
talking" were bis words.) Well, we
did. Evil glances, shifts, exits,
bighted that July morning. | be-
lieve that in the little manufacture
ing town our course is still dis
cussed.

MELTED MONEY MADE GOOD
Ashes Left In TumbIer identified, and
the United States Treasury
Does the Rest

One Of the most peculiar cases Of
burnt money being sent In for re.
demption has just come to the atten-
ton of treasury officials, observes
the Washington Post.
A few days ago the department
received from national bank in
Wayne county, Ohio, q melted glass
tumbler with money inside it. A
short note accompanied it explain
ing that several months ago there
had been fire in home In Wooster,
0. On a shelf was glass tumbler
with $50 in il.
Recently while looking about the
ruins the owner discovered the
melted tumbler with the ashes Of
the money inside. He carried it to
his bank which forwarded it to the
Treasury department.
Treasury experts broke open the
melted glass and by the aid of In
struments identified the money.
Within few days check for $50
win be sent to the bank to be turned
over to the owner of the burned
house.

ONE LIVES AND LEARNS

One evening on crowded street
car / had been lucky enough to OBJ
tain a seat. A young man was
standing in the aisle directly in
front of me. He was reading the
daily paper and was holding it in
such way that could not see his
face. / became deeply absorbed in
rather amusing article on the back
page Of the paper and as / read it
my countenance took on beaming
expression. Suddenly and without
warning the man folded the paper,
and there I sat gazing earnestly and
smilngly into the surprised eyss of
perfect stranger. / don't know
which Of us was more embarrassed
but since then do not read news
papers on street cars unless they be-
long to me.--Chicago Tribune.

FURNISHES COFFEE TO WORLD
Brazil Practically Has Monopoly Of
Trade In the Breakfast Table
Beverage.

Brazil raises 132,000,000
cups of coffee yearly In May coffee
trees are covered with red berries
which contrast beautifully with the
glossy green leaves, glowing like
rubies in their dark setting. The
berries are about the size of cram
berry, and of the same color. Under
the outer husk of red is a swedish
pulp, and within that, the hard
berry of commerce, The berries,
which at first are green, turn red
and finally dark when they are ripe,
until almost black. When they are
ripe the berries are shaken off the
trees. then gathered from the ground
by other workers, and poured by the
ton into vast coffeemill which, how
ever, does not grind them, but cracks
the hull This is blown away by
strong current Of air, while the i'm
prisoned berries drop to the bottom
and are then sorted automatically by
passing over perforated screen.
Then, by another set of machinery,
these sorted berries are put into bags
each of which holds 1872 pounds
These are sent by raid to the port.
Brazil has almost monopoly of the
worlds coffee trade.

ONE OCCASION IN PARTICULAR

About two years ago / began to
lose the hearing in my right ear.
The defect has caused me embarrass-
ment several times.
About SIX months ago / was mar
ried. The minister spoke in loud,
clear voice when speaking to my
husband-to-be. Then when he turned
to me he lowered his voice and /
couldn't comprehend one word he
was saying. He waited for me to re-
peat the words. Then he made an
other start and again waited. Still
| couldn't understand him.
After his third attempt / finally
got up courage to tell him / couldn't
hear well. After that be spoke SO I
could hear him, but il was my most
embarrassing moment. Chicago
