Limitless Variety of - Nature Seen at Doorway We sare np and away nowzdays, speeding fust for gchange; yet in, meadows Tnear my own doorway 1 have learned more of the limitiess va riety of pature than 1 have learned in following marvel® very far. The trees that 1 know: best are wever fwice the same, because of the way of the wind with their leaves, of the gun upon them, of their noonday shining and their evening shadow.

Seek Sound Devices | ~ as Reliable as Ear In spite of constant attempts to de vise a sound recording instrament there has as yet appeared ho appar atus as sensitive and reliable as the human ear. Something of the difi culty in meeting such a problem is evident from a statement by Alexan der Wood in a lecture delivered to the Institute of Electrical Engincers at the Royal institution. ; I “If an alternating pressure amount ing only to 1.000-1.000,60 of -the pres sure of ihe :u‘mi»,\phm‘(* 8 produged in the ecar passage, it may bo detocted as a sound,” says Mr. Wood. “This corresponds to a to-and-fro movement of the air through a distance of about one-tenth of the diameter of a mole cule.” i _
: King Ate Caterpillar | = In the !_m.';_fr:mh_\' of the duchess of York by Lady Cynthia Asquith is related a story of ‘the king of Fngland eating’ a caterpillar. - The genial l'\'il’lu Edward was lunehing with his son and daaghter-in-law when his grandson, little Prince Al bert, triec rather excitedly to attract the king's attention. The king, who was talking, merel- inferrupted himself to tell the child to contain himself until the econversation came to-a stop. 'The little 'duke said no more. Later the Kking turned fo. him and asked what it was he wanted to say. “It doesn’t matter now, grandpa,” was the answer. *“I wis only going to tell you there wus a ecaterpillar in your salad. but veu've eaten it now.”
Lighting the Train’s Exterior After some tests and experinenta tion, the lidian government is about to make use of a system by which the trains are lighted on the exterior for the purpose of intensifying the iliumi nation at country stations as a safeguard against frespassers, Sevéral lights are placed on either sgide of each car and these ave automatically switched on when the train is running below a certain speed and off again when the prescribed limit is exceeded. Thus the lights are on as the train slows down to enter or pass a siation, but on the road the presence of the lights is not essential.’

I'slngulv: with the voice of a Stenfor: “Throw me a saw.” They threw me one. 1 sawed my way out through the jce, but the sawdust dropped into my eyes and I perished™ = Wood Turns to Agate Next time you come across h petrifled tree it may interest you to know that in a few centuries more it will become agate from which the jewelry and marbles of another age may be made. Up to a few centuries ago. notes The Farm Journal, this woodstone was highly prized as a magic charm, and was believed to be able to do everything from stopping the flow of blood to calming a hurricane.

Little Help in New Tarlii
_‘The new house bill o ntariff revision offers but slight -assistance to the American farmer according to officials of the Indiana Farm Bureau Federation at Indianapolis. L. L. Needler Sécretar)'-Treasurel' made the following statement this week following passage of the bill in the house at Washington. o ~ “Those who had hoped that tariff ;legis’lation‘ in the present session of Congress would benefit agriculture fseemr doomed to disappointment. l “The bill as it stands today places I‘agriculture at a greater disadvantage !than it was under the old tariff schedules.: . o ;
“Chester Gray, the Washington representative of the "American Farm Bureau Federation, has made a study of the iueas‘m'e and finds that agricultural products under the 1922 act have an average protecton duty of 25.85%. The average duty under the. new act Is 29.9%. On industrial products the average duty under the 1922 act is 42.03% while under the new bili ‘;it will be increased to 47.07%. Tariffs on agricultural products have been increased 4.05% and industrial _tariffs? have been increased 5.04% ' “While- the new bill gives agriculture only 29.9% protection as against a protection to industry of 47.079 farmers won’'t grumble much if something is done to materially assist in making the agricultural tariffs effective. The farmer is accustomed to getting the worst end of the bargain when tarrffs are tinkered.”
