I where in this land, government chemists are conducting I experiments In the destructive distillation cf wheat straw into fuel suitable for heating, lighting and for

driving internal combustion engines. The proceis hitherto used is too expensive to make the fuel com mere! ally profitable, but it is hoped to cheapen it so that it may be produced as cheaply as the present price cf gasoline.

! It has been demonstrated, according to reports given out that one ton of strar will produco 40 gallons of ! fuel. On the basis of the estimate of ti year's crop of straw there ia enoush in Kanwa aleni to produce j 46,0i0,000 gallons, and the Sunflower State la but one j in a galaxy of states that grow wheat in somewhat i lesser quantities.

It ia the dream of the chemist a that the day will dawn when the Kansas farmer will hare hin own k(U! to turn his strew, now valueless, into fuel to drive hie Bedan. The straw stack provided the fodder for the ycke of oxen, the motive power of an earlier doy. In

harmony with progress it Is fitting that it should feed

the modern method of locomotion.

FIGTTRIN' Is your Johnny slow in arithmetic? Dees long division still hold its threatening scaffold over him? Are quotients, cube root and multiplicantfl mere names, and not, alas, names to conjure the correct answers with? Well, don't be too glum about it. There is something inhuman about the roathemutical prodlgs", Insists Maurice Maeterlinck, the Belgian philosopher. This distinguished author acknowledgcj that he cannot extract the root of a number and never could. Yet he tolls' wonder-stories cf animals in which the faculty has been discovered- Yea, uoraes and ogs! The chess players, those puny lads in sailor suits vho confound a whole roomful of bearded savants they are not exhibiting any intelligence in their marvelous faculty cf winning every game. The boys who add up columns of figures at a glance are also not so smart. For the mathematical faculty" belong, not to the conscious intelligence, but to a weird, uncanny 8ubonseioua being that lives within us, Maeterlinck holds. Most perse ns who do marvelous feata in arithmetic in childhood outgrow the trait rather early in life, he eays. And he adds that the mystery of numbers is a realm all its own, and little connected with the workaday brain. So cheer up. If the Jonesea' Willie struts around because he heads the class, be assured that defense will soon leave him. Turn your little l?ddie's thoughts, (o he bure. to enough mathematical knowledge for his use in life, but give him also other weapons vigor from gjimea. Imagination from His reading, and common senae from contact with his fellows. Then, though. his report card in arithmetic he ever so black, you will not have tc fear for his future.

SILENCE. "Silence is the best resolve lor Mm who distrusts himself," said La Rochefoucauld. The maxim has been raken to heart by a Boston convict, who was released from prison the other day on completion of a 25-year sentence. For ten years be has not spoken a syllable, writing on a pad In answer to every question as to why he did not talk: "My tongue has got me Into too much trouble already." Betrayal by a fellow prisoner of a confidence is the reason to which his cxtracrdiuary course is ascribed. If what the philosophers have said in praise of silence from ancient times down to the present should bo accepted literally the man must be regarded as a model of wisdom. "Speech is silver, silence is golden," saya an old proverb: or aa Carlyle puts it, "Speech is of eternity " "I have often regretted my speech, never my silence," said an old Roman. He added: "Let a fool bold his tongue and he will pass for a sage." But he will also pasa for a sour, glum creature. He will have few friends. Conversation is the very lifeb'ood of sccia! intercourse. The silent man or woman Is perforce a recluse or a "wall flower." If he has nothing to 6ay, he must ransack his mind for somethins and eay it anyway. Almost anything will suffice. The most banal platitudes concerning the weather are preferable to silence. Indeed, the more frivolous the cenversation. the better are the conventions satisfied. Profound subjects cannot be discussed glibly.

FARMERS PROPOSE TO HOLD CROPS. The manufacturer holds his product until he can obtain a price that covers the cost of manufacture and gives him a reasonable profit and the merchant only in exceptional cases will sell gcods from his shelves at a less. t Representatives of the farmer' organizations of the United States, who recently held a conference iu Washington, have agreed upon a plan to withhold products from the market until such a time as the price shall :n least egual'the cost of producticn. Briefly, the farmer proposes to follow the method adopted by other productive and distributive interests that of keeping bis products until he feels justified in

disposing of them. He seeks to avcid being the victim '

of efforts to force down the prices of his products while the cost of things he must buy remains high. The farmers propose to limit the supply of wheat and other grain and the ether products of the farm to an extent that will cause the public to bid for them, thereby bringing the price to a point that will insure a reatouable profit. ii tbe farmers, even in reasonably large numbers, adopt the policy' agreed upon by the Washington conference, what can the government do about it? Well, it is practically assured that the government caa dc nothing at all. The farmers do not propose to fix prices by agreement, which would bring them in conflict with the laws which penalite acts in restraint of trade. What they propose to do Is to act as individuate, but in harmony wkh the plan which tbey believe -will bring the results they desire better prices for their products. The experiment will be watched with interest. Theer is no law that can compel the grower to dispose of his crops, and if large numbers of farmers decide to wait for better markets, the ultimate consumer will soon feel the effects of a rising food market.
