SUMMER SEEDS

Missouri Farmers Find That ! They Contain Valuable Food Products. MILLIONS POUNDS WASTED ' Jefferson City, Mo.. Octt. "Millions of pounds of sunflower seed re allowed to go to waste in Missouri an nually, simply because It Is not generally known that they can be used for food for men as well as animals and therefore have a commercial value." says the 1910 Red Book of the bureau of labor statistics. Figures made public by Labor Commissioner, J. C. A. Hlller, show that In the year 1909 about 400,000 pounds of the seeds were sent to market by Missouri's 114 counties and that about $4,000 was realised by the sale of the same. "While originally a native of tropical America the sunflower Is now found growing more or less wild In 11 cultlvatable portions of the world, and especially in South and Central Europe,- seeds having been carried there from America and planted by several sixteenth century rovers, who took a fancy to the large flower, both for its peculiar wild beauty and that it had a food value," reads the Red Book chapter on this Interesting subject. , "In Russia, the sunflower seed Is prepared and eaten Just like Americans do peanuts. The poorer classes often eat the seads raw the only drawback of this style of turning them into a palatable, article being the difficulty of easily separating the ker- ; "In Missouri the sunflower Is found everywhere, growing in vacant city lota amid rubbish as well as in the rich lands of the southeastern section of the state and in the foothills of the Oxarks. Goats thrive on the plant eating everything from the seeds and petals down to . the coarse rough talks and the roots. The seed Is often used, mixed with other seed, as feed for poultry, an parrots especially enjoy this menu, forming a food which was a mainstay for them in tropical regions.

BY STEPHEN BURNETT. Berlin, Oct. 8. Little by little the

details of the program of the German

crown prince's travels In the far east are being filled In, and It la now possible to give the broad outlines of his tour. On Ms outward voyage he will

tarry for a few days in Egypt, prob

ably visiting those famous monu

ments of past ages which lie within

easy reach of Cairo.

It may be that the Gneissnan will

touch Aden, but the next stopping

place, which has already been . fixed upon. Is Ceylon. The cruiser will

cast anchor at Colombo, and the

prince, who up to this point will be accompanied by his consort will, of course, pay a visit to Kandy. How far farther afield the travellers will be tempted by the picturesque charms of the island will depend largely upon the time at their disposal, as the prince is due in Bombay on December 14. , Two months have been set apart for the crown prince's wanderings in India, but his Itinerary is still under discussion between the German embassy and the foreign office in London. It may however, be assumed that he will more or less closely follow the usual tourist route across the peninsula to Calcutta, stopping on the way at the more celebrated seats of natural, historical and artistic interest. He will probably also be a guest at the courts of some of the Indian princes, and will have an opportunity of taking home with him a few tiger

skins as trophies of his marksmanship. It is likewise practically certain that he will go uq, country as far as Darjeeling, and view Its famous panorama of inaccessible snow clad peaks. From Calcutta the voyage will be continued down the Straits of Malacca to Singapore. Here it Is expected that the prince will be welcomed with a profuse display of bunting from the coasting liners of the North German Lloyd and other German steamers, which generally are lying In the harbor f considerable numbers. The program for the two days appropriated to Singapore will probably Include an excursion Into the Sultanate of Johore and a reception at the German club. A deviation three to Ave days will "be spent In Slam, and about the middle of March the prince will reach Hong Kong, whene Canton will be visited. After a brief halt at Shanhal the

prince will pursue bis way to Kian

Chow, where ample opportunity will

bs afforded him of seeing what Ger

many has able to do with her "Place

n ths Sun." Hs is due In PeUn about

April 10, and at Toklo on April 25. The program for his travels in Japan which will occupy some three weeks, Is being drawn up by the Mikado's

government in conjunction with the

German ambassador. Towards the middle of May the crown prince will

set out on his return Journey by the

overland route across Siberia.

Ths thriving town of Hattershelm,

Hesse, has declared war on women gossips. Scandal mongering women have played such havoc with connu

bial bliss of ths community that the burgomaster has resorted to the drastic extreme of Issuing a municipal

proclamation designed to check the garrulousness of the feminine popula

tion. The following Is the text of his homily on the evils of gossip:

"Prosecutions for libel and slander

have recently attained widespread

dimensions in a certain section of our community. The , consequences are bitter enmltiea and heavy Inanclal

sacrifices In ths shape of litigation

coats. The cause Is usually the same.

While the men folks are hard at work the women fritter away their time In

gossiping and Quarrelling. The training of the children is neglected . and the household suffers from their, lack of care.

"When the bread winner comes

boms at night the day's events are untruthfully related to him. Then he must betake himself as the protector of his angry wife to the police, to

a solicitor' or to an arbitration court. Such is the family life of many who aeek vainly for true domestic happiness. All teachings that woman ahould busy herself at her own Ireslde, drive, scandal mongers out of her house, and provide a comfortable home for her husband and children are loat on auch persona. "This Is to make known that poor relief will henceforth bs given only la exceptional cases to people who involve themselves In scandal prosecutions. The police have also been Instructed to compile a list of these persons and warn landlords and tenants against them.

four or five hours.

Owing to the number of accidents

which have occurred the new boring! has been known among the workmen i aa "the tunnel of tragedies." Twenty- J

nve men were arownea in me lunnei about two years ago and twelve were killed by an avalanche. There is still about a mile and a half of granite separating the boring parties, says a correspondent of the London Evening News, who has been two miles are practically complete. It is nearly 27 feet wide by 19 Vi feet high. For this distance there is already a double line laid, so that trains can pass. Beyond that point

progress was difficult for the visitors, i

"Most of the time," writes the corres- j pondent, "we were drenched by the j water coming from above, sometimes i In positive bursts. When we could I

go no further by train we descended into a pool of water; for about a mile and a quarter we walked mostly through streams of mud. It was - a weird and strange experience." The cost of the tunnel will be about $10,000,000.

London, October 8. The mutiny of J

an Egyptian woman or lasnion, who lived seven thousand years ago. has been received at the museum of King's college, together with an extraordinary collection of adornments, just like those of today. The mummy came from Abydos, from the tombs of kings and queens who reigned thousands of years before the pharaoh who "knew not Joseph." She was discovered by Prof. Naville in hs excavations for the Egyptian exploration fund. This unidentified Nile beauty had been buried in a crouching position. She possessed a Grecian profile, far from the ordinary Egyptian type, and may have been a blond woman of the highest caste from some far off Asiatic or European region perhaps a Teutonic princess. Enough has been

unearthed in Egypt to prove to science that a blond race or caste, believed to have been of German or Teutonic, origin, brewed beer in Egypt many thousand years ago.

One of the strange things about the

woman Is her Amazonian Jaw, but ev-

Particulars of the latest "Mahdi" Incident reported several days ago from the province of Berber, have now been received. A certain El Sherif Mukhtar, who by his title 'sherif" claims to be a descendant of the Prophet, and his three sons proclaimed themselves mahdis in the village of Kittat Lebab and were disposed to resist the Sudan authorities. The governor of Dmaer was advised by telephone and the case was submitted to the governor of Berber, who immediately despatched the sub-governor of Dmaer and a small force of soldiers under; the command of Lieutenant Hassan Sharara to induce the false mahdis to surrender quietly. On arriving at Kittat Lebab, the kadi of Omdurman was chaged to approach the sherif and his sons and induce them to give up their wild ideas. The efforts of the kadi, however, were unsuccessful, and the sheikh of the district was deputed to use his Influence with the fanatical men. By this time they had become somewhat excited, and the sherif, drawing his lance, killed the shiekh

on the spot, whereupon a skirmish

ensued, two of the dead shiekh'a

companions being wounded In the fray.

With the object of frightening the un

ruly men, the officer in command fired

several shots Into the air, but this was without avail, for the "mahdi"

and his three- sons threw themselves upon the soldiers and fire conse

quently had to be opened on them. The sherif was wounded and one of his sons received slight injuries. One

soldier was killed In the melee, an

other seriously wounded, and a sublieutenant was slightly hurt. The af

fair, was terminated by thearrest of the sherif and hla two remaining

sons.

en stranger than her jaw, to scientists

is her collection of personal ornaments, which show that woman has undergone in her style and habits scarcely the slightest change throughout the ages. Assembled on a table In Kings college, in the heart of the Strand, in modern London, these ornaments can hardly be distinguished from those that are bought today in a Strand jeweler's. Here, for instance, one has jewel charms, mostly cornelians and amethysts, carved in all sorts of quaint shapes, as hawks, cranes, sphinxes, hippopotamuses, beetles, lions, fishes and elephants. The hawk is the sacred hawk of Osiris, but what modern beauty would notice the difference? And the beetles are the scarabs, also sacred to the ancient Egyptians. But even beetles look alike. The side combs of this Egyptian

.woman, who flourished at what is

called the dawn of history, are of exactly the present day model. Her painted vases in which were kept her bouquets and her perfumes and face

paints would easily pass lor modern creations. So also as to her necklaces. , One thing she had not now in use a delicately carved slate with pebble, used for grinding her eye paint. Some of the paint is still there, hardened on the slate, showing she

was as vain and perhaps as handsome as Cleopatra.
