4 11 tumorous Jcpartmnit. Diagnosing a Joke. The name of the author of the following story is better known for poetry than prose. However, here is what S. E. Kiser perpetrated at a convention of American humorists: Paw and maw were sitting in the sitting room one evening, and pretty soon paw began to laff. "What's wrong?" maw ast. "This is one of the best joaks I ever saw," paw says. "Lissen and I'll read it to you: 'Why is the mistake of a dockter not as bad as that of a dentust?" Do you know?" .paw ast. "No," maw told him. "Becoz," paw red, "one tills six feat and the other fills an aker." "Unn- thcv do that?" maw ast. "Becoz they made A mistake," paw ansered. "Which does?" maw says. "Both of them," paw told her. "That's why the mistake of the doekter lzzent as Bad as the dentust's." "Why not?" says maw. "The dockter only fills Six feat,"j paw told her, "and the dentnst fills An aker." "I don't understand About the feat," maw Bed. 'Why does he Fill six of them and What does he fill them with?" Paw began to look kind of glassy out of his eyes, and he Red the joak again to himself So he would be sure he Didn't make enny mistake. Then he says: "Why, you see, if a dockter would make a mistake it mite be fatal, and so he would fill six feat of earth with a man, because the man would Be about six feat tall, you no." " j* ?*?"? l?n?K a KaH t "1 uon i art uiuiru iu lau^u ? ?v?> such a joak," maw told him. "May he it miten't be a man at all, or he mite be short." "Oh. well," paw says, "they just pretend He would be a six footer so as to Make it come in with the aker." "Why do they want to do that?" maw ast. "That's the joak," paw says. "Which is?" maw told him. "Why, the aker," paw ansered. "Where are they enny Joak about that?" maw ast. "The dentust fills it, you no," paw sed, but he Didn't seme to be very sure about it By that time. "Yes," maw says, "but you red that he made A mistake." "Don't you know what an aker is?" paw ast. "A tooth that You fill is an aker, and They have akers of ground." "But where does the mistake come in?" maw sed. "Why, he Fills the rong one," paw answered. Wiping his forrld and kind of looking Around like if he was trying to see If the escape was all cut off. "Well, then, how does He fill the aker,' maw ast, "if the tooth he Fills is the rong one And duzzent ake?" Then paw got up and tore the Alminnick in two and Threw it in the waist basket and sed: "They are no use Trying to bring enny sunshine into This fambly. Let's drop the subject. The man that r^te the 1oak Was a tool and the one that printed it was a worse one, but I'm not going to rong Either one of them by unjust su8pishens. Mebby they didn't every try to tell It To a woman."? New York Post. Straining the Keg.?Every nail keg in the store had its occupant, the checker board was working overtime, and mittens and mufflers were stuffed in bulgy pockets as their owners drew! closer around the big, rusty stove. The door opened noisily, letting in a blast of the storm raging outside, and in its wake followed Rufe Blevins, a giant woodchopper, whose good nature and ready wit made him a welcome addition to the store circle. The loafers moved a little closer together to make room for Rufe on a soap box, but he marched past the friendly circle, plumped an empty molasses keg down on the counter, and drew a stained bill from his pocket, which he held out to the proprietor of the store. An expectant grin went around the circle, for Storekeeper Jones had the reputation of never wronging himself by overwelghing or undercharging. The merchant adjusted his glasses and looked expectantly from the bill to the woodchopper. "Notice you charged me for five-gallons of molasses last time I had this four-gallon keg filled," drawled Rufe. "I don't mind payin' for the extra gallon, Mr. Jones, but I do kinder hate to O err\rxA boor atPoinpH tn tliPPPS " "a?c a P?wu nvp, ? Youth's Companion. Abusing Freedom.?Benjamin E. Walsh, the sociologist, said of immigration in a recent lecture in Reading: "I would not restrict immigration. It is true that some immigrants, entering for the first time a free country, abuse their freedom. But they soon get over that. "We are all apt to abuse unwonted frt-edom. I know an Englishman who on his arrival in New York demanded a glass of whisky in a palatial bar. "Now, in England your whisky is measured out to you in a small tin measure, but in our bar the Englishman, to his astonishment, had the full bottle set before him. He was given for the first time the freedom of the bottle. "And though a rich man. he abused that freedom. He took an enormous drink. Then he rose and handed the Bartender 15 cents. " 'Hold on, sir,' the bartender called after him. You've forgotten your change." " 'I thought the drink was 15 cents,' said the Englishman. " 'Yes, that is so,' said the bartender, 'but that is the retail price. There's a reduction when you buy wholesale." ?Washington Star.

Dairying Brings Prosperity. A recent issue of the Southwest Trail was devoted principally to the exploitation of dairying: in the south and west, by H. M. Cottrell, commissioner of agriculture of the Rock Island Railway system. The issue also contained three articles upon the same subject by the editor, Alvin T. Steinel, and one by A. D. McNair, all of them handsomely illustrated with views of model dalrv establishments and dairy animals. These articles cover the entire subject of dairying, from the selection of the profitable cow, to the marketing of the dairy products, and finally, in open letter, Mr. Cottrell says: Mr. Dairyman: Dairying has made your section prosperous. The money made from the cows has built your good farm houses and barns and furnishing them, has sent the children to college and is the bulk of the large deposits in your banks. You made all this money with moderate prices for dairy products and with long, severe winters that required not only all the feed that you could raise in the summer, but as much more that you had to buy. The price of dairy products is higher, the winter several months shorter and the cost of land and feed less in the south, and southwest along the Rock Island lines, With your skill In selecting, feeding and handling dairy' cows, you can make $2 there for ev cry J1 you are now making. Investigate. Colorado?Official records show that Colorado has 320 days of sunshine each year. The altitude is high, the air pure and dry. Just the place to bring back health to your wife or daughter whose lungs are weak. Denver and Colorado Springs are two of the highest-priced markets in the world for milk and butter. In both places butterfat in sweet milk and cream bring about 40 cents a pound the year round. Butterfat in sour cream averages over 30 cents a pound. In eastern Colorado dry land forage crops that make cows give large yields never fail and many farmers grow alfalfa. Kansas?Dairying made western Kansas, providing good cash incomes in years when wheat failed, and leaving, for investments or deposits in the bank the immense returns the wheat brought in good years. This is 8 country of schools, churches, rural mail routes, rural telephones and good roads. The Panhandles, Oklahoma and Texas?A dry farming country where the crops that never fail make good milkproducing feeds, and dairy products are not sufficient to meet the demand. Dairying insures the new settler a steady income from the day he starts in his new home. Poultry and hogs on dry land feeds add to the profits. The winters are shorter and the sum mers warmer than in coioraao. Oklahoma?Central and eastern Oklahoma Is the home of alfalfa and corn, one of the best combinations for cheap dairy production. They need silos and silage down there, and you know how to make both. Missouri?Central Missouri has the only cheap, rich land in the corn belt. St. Louis is at one end of the Rock Island lines in Missouri and Kansas City at the other. Two markets with unlimited demand for all dairy products. Soil, climate and markets just right; location in the center of the United States. Arkansas?Butterfat 47 cents a pound last January; average 35 cents a pound during the year 1910. Good land $5 to J15 an acre. Nine months' pasture a year. The people know nothing about hov to select a dairy cow that will make money. On many of their cows the underline slopes up from the forelegs to the udder?a good type for speed, but mighty shy on milk. With your skill iu selecting cows, you can make {90 net profit per cow per year. Western Arkansas is also the land of the red apple. Louisiana?Not a single town on the Rock Island lines has enough milk, cream or butter. I was In Louisiana last summer when the people in Chicago and New York were dying of heat. Down there the thermometer did not go above 96 degrees. The middle of February I held outdoor meetings, the men in shirt sleeves and the women wearing roses that bloomed outdoors. At tnat time you were shoveling a path through the snow from your house to the barn and warming the water your cows drank. Cheap land, root crops growing all winter, corn 18 feet high?think what silage it would make! My wife was horn in Ohio and has always lived in the north, yet when she got to Louisiana she felt that she had gotten back to her home people. Your wife will feel the same way. Louisiana people spell "welcome" in capitals. Mr. Dairyman, it is up to you to get on to the Rock Island lines. It will pay you. The Green Bug or Southern Grain Louse. At this writing this insect is causing much alarm among the farmers of the state. The reason for this heavy outbreak is due principally at least to the warm weather of February. In normal seasons this pest is kept well under control by its natural enemies, the most important of these being a parasitic wasp. The work of this wasp is in evidence in nearly every green bug infested field. When examining infested oats or wheat, small spherical stationary pimples of a brown or blackish color are present. These represent lice that were killed by the parasite wasp. This wasp has a very efficient arrangement for laying its eggs. It penetrates the body of the green 1 OM/1 lnoo tVlD IIUH Willi lis t'SK gumr aiivi m; tj m? eggs therein. This egg hatches into a small white grub which consumes the inside of the g m bug, thus killing it. The was]) continues to utilize the dead body as a pupa case in which the third stage of its life history is passed. When full grown it perforates the wall of this dead, dried up bug and escapes into the open. It is during abnormal weather conditions when the parasite loses control of the green bug. It is explained as follows: The green bug breeds in a temperature ranging from 3.1? F to 90' F. The parasite is, however, a hot weather bug and goes into the dormant or hibernation stage at about 60? F. It was the warm weather of February that enabled the green bug to reproduce rapidly, but the weather was not warm enough for the parasite to become very active. During this period of freedom the green bug gained advantage. The average life of the individual green bug is about thirtysix days and during this period the average production of offspring ii about sixty. They give birth to livin? young and these mature in seven dayt and begin to reproduce by giving blrtt to living young. When the food supply becomes scarce in a given field they greatly increase the number ol winged forms which migrate to othet grain fields. Summarizing all the experimenta work of the past with a view of controlling this pest the following recommendations, while not satisfactory tr us, are the most practical and effective 1. wntH nit* i it testa hum id mot ? %*ticed in the winter, during or after a warm spell, run a weeder over the oats both ways. This may have to be repeated, depending on weather conditions. 2. When the infestation has become very serious, light brush tied together and drawn over the grain dislodges and destroys many of the green bugs 3. It is recommended that fields badly damaged at present, considering weather conditions, be plowed and planted to another crop. 4. Where damage is light at this time in a given field in addition to thf above recommendations, we believe that stimulation with soda would save the crop. 5. If the land is very level, rolling with a heavy roller is profitable. The above recommendations, with the exception of No. 5, are intended for grain that has not yet manea. ihuk measures are not profitable on matted grain and the only thing to do In that case is to graze It with cattle. The trampling, as well as the grazing, are destructive to the green bug. This subject is under investigation with the hope that something more effective will develop.?A. F. Conradi, State Entomologist. A WASTED SALUTE. Naval Powder, Pomp and Splendor and a Fizzle. A group of officers were "swapping" stories at the Army and Navy club in Washington one night when one was reminded of an amusing incident that occurred in connection with the stay of the flagship Monongahela at Pensacola bay when Farragut was on board. The old fighter had been very busy the week before paying official calls on the mainland, and among those who entertained him was General Canby. When, therefore, word was received that the general would visit the ship the next day the admiral was determined to have everything in readiness to receive him in a style becoming his rank. The old boat was scrubbed and holystoned from 'stem to stern, the brass work was given an extra rub, and things generally were put into the best of order. The captain of the marines had a special inspection of his company, and not a spot of rust or a dull helmet spike escaped his notice. When night closed in darkness settled down over a very clean ship and a very tired ship's company. bright and early.the next morning the admiral's launch was sent off to bring the general aboard. At the last moment it was discovered that there was no fruit for luncheon, and Pomp, the admiral's cook was sent in the dinghy to get some. Pomp was a character in his way and had been with the admiral for many years. He was very proud of what he called his military bearing and wore his beard carefully trimmed to a point. His hair and beard were nearly white, and, although he was 60 years old, he ruled the other negroes with a rod of iron. By 10 o'clock every one was standing by In full dress, when the quartermaster came aft and reported that the admiral's launch was returning. The officer of the deck walked to the rail and took a squint at the boal through his glasses. A man clad in blue uniform was seated in the admiral's cane chair in the stern, but as the gunwale struck him Just below his shoulder and the awning hid his head the officer of the deck was not certain that it was General Canby until as the wind lifted the edge of the awning he caught a glimpse of a gray beard. Word was passed that the general was coming. The crew were beat tc quarters, the marine guard paraded, and the gun squad detailed to fire the salute, took their stations. Everything was in readiness and the admiral and his staff stood at the head oi the gangway to receive the guest. A hush of expectancy settled over the ship. The boat drew nearer. Just as the launch scraped alongside, boom, boom, came the salute from the guns. "Present arms!" came the command to the guard, and at a sign from the flag officer the band struck ur "Hail to the Chief." Amia an mis niuiuu> fuiiij; ?nu splendor the occupant of the launch was slowly clambering out, feet foremost and Just as the last gun fired he stood erect at the top of the gangway, It was the admiral's cook with a ba? of fruit in each hand! The honors intended for a general had been rendered to old Pomp! As the situation dawned on the men even discipline could not check a general shout oi laughter. The old admiral hlmseli laughed until he could laugh no longer. It seemed that in some way the dinghy had gone off and left the old negro and that he managed to convince the coxswain that "Marse Farragut was Jest bound to have dal fruit befo' the general came." Pomp wanted to land at the por) gangway, but the coxswain insisted that the admiral's launch never wenl to the port side and that the old mar would have to land on the starboard side. aft. Had the awning been a little higher the mistake in identification would not have occurred. As things were, no one could be blamed and the affair was treated as a joke while the old cook was nicknamed tht "General." When an hour later General Canby did come he was received with all due ceremony and on being told thf story laughed until the tears rolled down his cheeks and demanded to set man ttrVtA hqrl ctnl^n hiss ssnlllfp.? New York Press. The Pulse of a Star.?It is quite a: easy to take the temperature of a staj that may l>e distant from us manj billions of miles as for a doctor to fee the pulse of a child. The method i! built upon the following very simph experiment: If in a dark room yoi will heat a piece of iron by means o an electric current and suffer the ligh from the burning metal to pass through a three-cornered piece o glass and fall upon a screen, all tin colors of the rainbow, one after ate other, will be thrown upon the screen As the iron begins to glow it will firs cast a red band on the screen. Ai the temperature in the metal rises 1 will next form a band of oranges Heating it still more the iron will adt in succession to these colors bands o yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet Our eyes are not able to interpret th< heat-waves beyond the violet color but a photographic plate will do so and by its aid we are able to extent the scale of increasing heat far lie yond the violet band. So, taking tin light of a star in the same manner ant causing it to pass through a prism we know if it produces a red hand i is the same degree of heat with th? burning iron when it made the banc of red. The more bands of color produced by the light of a star, the hottei will be the star that produces the light We call this series of colors a spectrum, and thus the spectrum become! a convenient star thermometer to ascertain its pulse. Of course, it is eas> I to know the exact decree, of heat In ; the iron as it makes the different col? ors on the screen, and the same heat i must be in the distant star to do the same thing:.?Tywlsvllle Courler-Jour, nal. r Hakes Home Baking Easy fPK &akih<* powder Absolutely Pure The only baking powder i made from Royal Grape Cream of Tartar no alum.no ume phosphate I Marlboro Prolific SEED CORN Makes from two to five ears to the stalk, not flinty.
