LIGONIER BANNER, LIGONIER, INDL ..

IN THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDS Trader and Planten, Not in Need of Pity, According to Writer in the : ' Asia ,Magazine. v It is customary to waste a lot of Pity on the trader and the planter in remote .places—lonely outposts of civilization—but, from my observation, they do not need pity, declares @ writer in Asia Magazine. The man 'who_stays dn: theislands is fitted for life there; If he isn’t, he doesn’t stay, and, if he does stay, he can retire after 15 or 20 years, with a tidy fortune, : L

Of course, the road to fortune is a long and hard one. The average planter starts out with a little capital —say $5OO. He purchases a plot of land. The price he pays depends upon the locality in which he buys.. In regions where the natives are still fairly "unsophisticated he may get his land for almost nothing.. Even where the natives are most astute, he can buy a square mile for what he would pay for ‘an acre back home.- His next step is to get his land cleared. To that end he buys a ‘whaleboat :and goes out to recruit natives to act as laborers. He needs five or six blacks. They will build his house and clear his land and plant his coconuts. Since it takes seven years for the coconuts to mature, sweet potatoes and cotton must be planted between the rows. of*trees. The sweet potatoes, with a little rice, will furnish all the food required by the blacks. ' The cotton, if the planter is diligent and lucky, will pay current expenses until the coconuts begin bearing. S ~ Though his small capital of $5OO may be eaten up early in the game, the settler need not despair. The big trading companies that do business in the islands, will see him through if he shows any signs of being made of the right stuff. They will give him credit for food and supplies, and they will provide him with knives, calico and tobacco, which he can barter with the blacks for the sandal-wood and copra that will help balance his account with the companies. And after the first trying seven years his troubles are -about over—if he can get labor enough to keep his plantation golng. POSSIBLE LIFE ON PLANETS Existence on Moon, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Uranus, Neptune, Im- ' probable, Scientists Say. '

The possible existence of life on the planets has lately been discussed in a most interesting manner by American astronomers. This is a summary of the conclusions of these scientists upon the question. It is considered that the existence of a high form of life on the moon, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Uranus or Neptune'is extremely improbable. Although -Venus greatly resembles the earth, it is generally believed by astronomers that the day and the year of the planet are of equal duration. lln that case no life can exist upon it. Conecerning Mars, astronomers are not agreed as to whether the much-discussed markings are canals or merely earthquake -cracks. There are no permanent bodies of water on the planet. The best that can be said is that, although the temperature on Mars is very low, there may be on the planet, to a limited extent, the conditions: essential to life; probably only vegetable and lgw-order animal life, but no beings of intelligence.

Fur Animals Increase In Kentucky. Fur-bearing animals are on the increase in Kentucky as a result of the protection afforded by the state game law. The raccoon, opossum, mink, weasel, otter and muskrat are reported in larger numbers by trappers who in the open season collect the skins in paying quantities., ‘- Until adequate protection was afforded by the drastic game law some of the species had almost disappeared from Kentucky, but under the new order the stock seems to have been appreciably replenished all over the state. The beaver still is found in some sections of the state and only recently a large colony was discovered in a western county, where the animals had dammed a creek. e

Train Insects to Eat Insects.

‘An ingenious scheme for ridding our gardens of insect pests has been suggested by a Richmond entomologist. His plan is to train harmless insects to kill and -eat Mmjurious grubs and flies. Experiments which have been made met with considerable success. It is well known that certain insects ~are the enemies of other creatures which are garden pests. They lay their eggs in convenient spots, often in the actual nesting places of their enemies, and when the young come to life they feed on the eggs. Sclentists are attempting to train these insects to feed upon harmful creatures ‘which at present they do not regard as epemies.—London Tit-Bits. @

Hair Dressing.

In France women are dressing the hair to make the head look as small as possible. The locks are pulled straight back and coiled at the neck with the greatest simplicity. There is a tendency over there to keep the outline of the head small, but the hair is arranged softly about the face. This -is much more flattering to the average woman. e

Disqualified. % ; A teacher asked, as reported by a London comic paper, “What would King. Alfred, if he were alive now, think of the home rule bill?” and the boy answered, “If‘King Alfred were alive’ now he would be too old to be interested in politics.”—Outlook. .
