He was of the genuine type of man and his pleasing personality won and held a large number of friends. He was in his fourth year at Notre Dame university and was 24 years of age.

The Indiana Federation of Fanners’ Associations, completely reorganized for the coming year, is looking forward to a strenuous campaign of 'activities during the winter months. .Many important plans which have been working to a head and have , been under careful consideration by [the board of directors and executive [committee for some time will be Toinially announced before long. The election during the last week of [lbesident John G. Brown, of Monon, [by the American Farm Bureau Federation at its annual convention in Indianapolis to a position on the executive committee of the national organization, will bring the Indiana farmers into close touch with national problems which should serve as a benefit to the Hoosier agriculturists.

NOW KNOWN TO BE CLOUDS 1 Up to Year 1900 the Projections on Mars Had Been Thought to Be Mountains. The first ol -orvers of projections on Mars had attributed them to the satne . cause that produces projections on luo ,,u—that is. mountains.’- h they । ; were said to be in France and at Lie*. I This view, however, was in 1802 ms- . i puted by W. H. Pickering, who considered them to be not mountains, but i ! clouds. This view was supported by ; A. E. Douglass, who observed them in ! 1892 at Flagstaff, Ariz. The mountain I theory of their gem-ration was shown to be untenable and their ascription to clouds proved to be the correct ! theory in December. 1900. Onl V a i gle projection was visible in lb<»0, 1J i and 1905. As a mountain does not

change 11 s place, and as i * seen where something had been vis > • ihle. the phenomenon was proved to ( not be a mountain peak. Now the only . ' other thing capable of catching the )C light before it reached the surface • would be something suspended i । , : air—that is. a cieud. Deductions, i therefore, from th.- rarity of the phenomenon alone showed that he p 11 [ jections must be c < nds. Furthermoic, I the projection wa,- smaller after the lapse of 24 hours. The something that ’ caused it was not only not attached to I the soil, but was moving and dissipat- • i ins as it moved -dong. Clouds are the onlv bodi s kr, wn to us which at- , count ' for these metamorphoses. Clouds, then, ami not mountains, are I the explanation of the projections of i Mars.—“ Mars ami Its Canals,’’ by I er- - cival Lowell. I ONG LOST USE OF WINGS

‘ I 1 Ground Parrot. Found Only in New i Zealand, Interesting to the Student of Evolution. The wingless birds of New Zealand , , are particularly Interesting to the na- ■ ' ture student as illustrating the process ; lof evolution. Nowhere but in their | native land could these birds have ■ survived, and, therefore, nowhere else [ would they have become wingless. । New Zealand is the only region on ' earth where there are no destructive | animals. Being unable to fly, the birds i I could not, of course, have escaped j : from any swift hunting animals such as abound in all oilier lands. It is interesting to note that the kakapo, or ground parrot, once bad the use of its i i „ .koc feeder

I ~ * 1_ ft SQCtI I“Vtlv and finding-m" witnrrrr^- ; t i gradually cea«ed to fly and eventually : I lost the use of its wings entirely, j though it can run very swiftly. These 1 i birds are so gentle and so unconscious j of having any enemies that if a per- ’ son sits down near one and keeps quiI et it will presently tuck its head tin-

; der its wing ami go to sleep. Ihe [ kakapo breeds hut once in two years, I and the moth. r bird carefully hides ' the nest from her mate, though why she does so is unknown, the male showing no d« sire to harm the eggs or young birds. In this infrequent breeding is demonstrated nature’s thought- j fulness —hat ng no destructive enemies the kakapo would multiply to too [ great numbers if the breeding season occurred as frequently as with other birds. Raising Bamboo in Louisiana. i The department of agriculture tells the people of this country that experiments in Louisiana show that Chinese i and Japanese bamboo may be grown there and that the cultivation of some varieties may I e profitable. Mention is made.- for instance, of Phyllostachys pubescens. which one may ear as a salad when the shoots are

| six or eight inches above the ground, or which may be used for limber later, , ns the “shoots’’ r»j«ch a height of from 60 to TO feet in three weeks. The bamboo, we are told, may be used in building operations or for telephone poles or spars, hence it is recommended as a source of wealth tn those who live in southern Louisiana. । ; It may be profitable to them, but folks In the North feel that the Louisiana j residents will find it more profitable to ' I continue to raise sugar cane and the ■ I price of sugar, remarks the Hartford ' Courant. Owls Lodge in Oxford. Owls, as is proper in the case of birds of such renowned solemnity and secluded habit, have always exhibited a particular liking for Oxford, where more than one college, but y <rticu ar- ' ly Worcester, has its colony. Recently they have established a new colony in the ivy-covered walls of j the Bodleian library and the Tower of i the Five Orders, in the Old Schools r ‘ quadrangle. Members of the Bodley staff now oc- ; casionally find relaxation from their duties by rescuing the young birds . which find their way down on to the । pavement of the quadrangle, and are

unable to fly up to their nests. —West- j minster Gazette. Washing Rugs.
