the ripe old age of 82 years and seven

mound of beautiful flowers.
He will be missed by all who knew

little children. He was often seen
playing paper dolls with some cf hie

Tbvrt la a graai

to tba vmloa of aUctrldtj la tbo culrt-
vmtloa of vmrloua food crop*. Many
English autborltlaa claim that grain
and aomc garden produce la quit# ma
terially speeded up ao far as growth
la concerned and the quality improved,
by a current of electricity passing
between the ground and a network of
wires suspended above the growing
crops. A Finland farmar report* an
Increase of 50 per cent .in the amount
of produce and grain grown In this
manner. The United States Agricul
tural department has been experiment
ing with tbe subject for years and the
final conclusion Is that no benefit or
at least very little has resulted from
the electrical treatment of the soil.
In fact it was noticed that a slightly
prolonged exposure resulted In kill
ing the seed placed in the ground.
This conclusion ft agreed in by some
other authorities so that the prepond
erance of opinion is that the electrical
treatment of soil is without result-—

Maya Indians May Have
Been “Pioneers” in Corn
At Quirigua, In the republic of
Guatemala, there exists a number of
most interesting ruins, apparently the
remains of temples and other public
buildings. There are many individual
monoliths, erected as monuments of
different sorts, sculptured with human
faces and figures and animal designs,
as well as hieroglyphics, which arche
ologists have not as yet been able to
decipher accurately. One such stone
bears a date in Mayan chronology
which has been computed to coincide
with 535 A. D. of the Gregorian cal
endar. The carving of this monolith,
which is the largest of the surviving
remnants, is still clear and perfect,
desp.te the long procession of cen
turies that has passed over it. In
scriptions and representations on this
and other stones tend to the belief
that Indian corn was first cultivated
in Guatemala. The corncakes of the
Mayan Indians were probably the first
attempts to cook corn, or maize, and
these cakes arg itill today the staple
of the Guatemalan and Mexican diet.
