Experiment in Cross
Breeding Is Success

A new animal, designed to combine
the milk-giving abundance of the South
with the hardness of the North, has
been raised in the farm attached to
Alaska college, at Fairbanks, Alaska,
This animal has been developed with
Galloway cows as the mothers and
yaks from the snowy Businesses of
Tibet as fathers. Their name as well
as their breed has been crossed, and
the have received the name of gallo
yaks.
The galloyak has inherited the long
shaggy hair of his father, but the
placidity of the mother has evidently
been responsible for the reduction of
the paternal hump. The animals are
hardy, and are well adapted to the
extreme cold of the North.
The value of the new animal is
great. Its meat is of excellent flavor,
and is extremely nourlshing Its hair
has a high commercial value, and first
quality leather can be made from its
hide.

Monopoly Not Possible

The Columbia State offers this:
"When the Hebrew minor prophet
Joel wrote the lovely saying that Dry
den hammered into an heroic line
Your old men shall dream dreams,
your young men shall see Visions
he was prObably-we haven't the He
brew text before us-trying to round
out what is known as Hebrew 'paral-
lelism,' saying one thing in two ways,
rather than two things in kind of
formula. He was saying that every
body, with due illumination, would
dream dreams and see visions, as Job
dreamed and saw them in the dead
watches of the night. Neither old
nor young has a monopoly of dream
and vision"

Oliues

Most olives eaten in America are
green olives which have been picked
whole or with the pits removed. In
the Mediterranean countries 1t is Gus
tomary to eat the ripe fruit cured in
salt Olives in this manner constitute
staple part of the laborer's daily
diet. 1t is very rarely that ripe olives
are eaten In the United States. The
Department of Agriculture has intro
duced new variety called the Barounl
olive, especially adapted for picking
ripe. 1t is a native of north Africa
and has been grown successfully in
California. The original stock of a
few trees has expanded until there
are now orchards of about 100 acres
total area on the Pacific coast.-Path-

Blue LaDs Banned Pies

1.-THE pumpkin, or pompion," we
read In Peters General History of
Connecticut" published in 1881, as
one of the greatest blessings, and held
sacred in New England. OF its meat
are made beer bread, custards, sauce,
molasses, vinegar and, on thanksgiv-
ing days, pies, as a substitute for
what the blue laws brand as anti
Christian minced pies"
The same author explains why New
Englanders were called pumpkin
heads. As every male was required
to have his hair cut round by a cup,
when cups were not to be had, they
substituted the hard shell of a pump
kin, which, being put on the head
every Saturday, the hair is cut by the
shell all around the head."-Gas

1t is impossible to determine which
was the first library in the United
States supported by public funds and
wholly free to its users. The earliest
recorded gift of books to munich
pality is that of Rev. John Sharp, who
in 100 bequeathed his library to the
city of New York for the benefit of
the people. The town library of
Peterborough, N. H., formed through
the efforts Of Rev. Abiel Abbot In
1893, appears to have been the first
free library which has continued to
the present day.

Famous Painting

The painting of THE Last Supper"
by Leonardo da Vinci is recognized
as one of the worlds masterpieces. 1t
was originally painted by order of the
duke of Milan on the walls of the
Dominican convent of the Madonna
del Grazie The picture is now in a
state of decay, but several very fine
copies have been made. One of them,
at the Royal academy in London, is
considered worthily representative of
the original. The Mona Lisa" of
the same painter, now in the Louvre,
is also rated among the greatest paint
ings.

First Whites in Hasuoii

Early Hawaii legends indicate that
the first white men visited Hawaii 400
years ago. Many historians and scien-
lists maintain that no white men were
there before Capt. James Cook arrived
in 177S, but the Hawaiian legends tell
of the wrecklng of a strange vessel
and landing of several white men in
1927 1t is pointed out that no white
people except the Spaniards were
cruising in the Pacific at that early
period, and some historians think 1t
entirely possible that the strange YES
sci was one of three sent out by Cor
tee from Mexico in an attempt to
reach California.

Large Mouth, Small Throat

The throat Of the giant sperm whale
is said to be large enough for the
passage of an object about the size
of mans waist. The food consists
largely of cuttlefish, but fishes not
larger than the bonito and the abb
core are found in its stomach. The
sperm whale is the only large whale
which feeds upon FISH. The blue whale,
the largest animal alive today, reach
ing a length In excess of so feet, with
a mouth so large that ten to twelve
men could stand therein, has a throat
about s inches in diameter.
