Wert* of the Ohio agricultural experiment station, working with the rural economics department of the Ohio State university. Werts haa studied the gross cash income of agriculture as an Index of farm prosperity which is more reliable than unit price Indicates, because It shows the volume of bus! neas done. His statistics are based upon an index of 100, which Is the average gross cash income from the principal sources, In 1924, 1825 and 1826. | 1 On this basts the dairying income started in 1920 at 147 and dropped frith all other sources of Income, In 1921 to 97, which was a shorter drop than was shown by any other group of commodities, and was seven points above the total gross cash Income. In 1922 there was a further drop to 91, which was three points above the figure for the total. It was above the index for every other department except the sale of _ meat animals. Dairying Income soared in 1923 to 110, the highest figure reached by any important department of farm Industry fdnee 1020. nnd 21 points above the total Income Index. It dropped In 1924 to 103. but was still above all other figures. In l'J2f> the Index was 97, three points below the figure for the total, and in 1020 dairying income belled its past performance by registering 99. the lowest of all the Indices. In 1926 all Important departments of farming other than dairying showed peaks as compa-ed with 192f>. But In 1927, according to preliminary estimates, there was a sharp drop which was not shared by the dairying branch. While the Index for the total Income in 1927 was down to 91 points, dairying remained at 99. the point reached In 1926. The average Index for the eightyear period for dairying Income was 108 points, while the total gross Income average has been 102 points. Income from the sale of dairy products makes np approximately 28 per cent of the total cash Income of Ohio agriculture. Chinese. This object Is a clay pipe in the form of a snake about twenty-one inches long. On its neck near the head is a round thing like the bowl of a pipe with a hole in the bottom that leads to the tall of the snake. It is very similar to the opium pipes that orientals smoke today. The discovecy gave rise to much comment among the American archeoioglsts, who are convinced that It really is a pipe. The supposition would confirm the Idea that the Mayas, like the Egyptians and Chinese, had the drug habit and used Intoxicating herbs. Inspector Eduardo MartineS Canton, member of the exploring party who represents the Mexican department of archeology, believes the instrument is more likely to be one of the many types of incense burners the Mayas used to drive away the evil spirits from their ritual festivals and when they were Invoking the oracles for the new year, rather than evidence of an ancient vice. He points to the records of Diego de Landa, third bishop of Yucatan, who explored the peninsula in 1572. Bishop Landa left descriptions of what he saw and heard while he was trying to persuade the natives to leave their idolatrous rites and adopt Christianity. He describes many curious purification ritps In which objects like this newly discovered clay pipe might have been used.

Taking the cows off pasture at leart three hours before milking Is advised as a preventive measure. Even if the pasture contains no wild onions, sudden change to grass In the spring Is apt to develop bad odors In milk. Some additional feed should be given when the pasture season opens. The grass Is short and It does not at first provide sufficient nourishment to maintain the milk flow. A small amount of grain and hay will pay well until grass has made a good growth.--John Toliv^r, Deputy State Dairy Commissioner, Oolorado Agricultural College. Why Brain Works Best in Afternoon or Night When we go to bed early, hoping to wake up fresiier than usual, we generally seem to wake up drowsier than after a late night. In fact, the longer and "deeper** we sleep, the more time It takes to recover from the resultant "flightiness." Mental tests show that students averaged a 10 per cent higher score at night than immediately after eight hours' restful sleep. In the morning when your mind is freph it is best prepared for a brief spurt, but It is too restless to concentrate. As the day wears on the mind is helped to concentrate by fatigue poisons that accumulate in the system. They act as mental excitants, and the best time for sustained mental work Is from lata afternoon until midnight or later. Keep Calves in Dry Lot Until They Are Marketed Calves which have been full fed on grain during the winter, with the Intsntlon of marketing them, ought not to be turned on pasture before they are shipped. These calves should be fat enough so that they can be finished in the feedlot and marketed by the first of June. If they are turned on grass for a few weeks they will not make as good gains as in the feedlot. Changing from dry-lot feeding to pasture causes the calves to scour somewhat and (Consequently their gains will not be as good as they will be if kept In the dry lot until ready to ship to market Why Horns Affect Hearing It has been ascertained that the spiral horn of a wild sheep, when so placed that the ear is in the axis of the coil, makes the direction from which the ticking of a watch comes more easily discernible. Since the ear of the sheep is surrounded by the horn, it is Inferred that the latter acts as an ear trumpet, not improving the hearing for distant sounds, but disclosing the direction of a sound. This would be useful in enabling the sheep to ascertain the- exact points whence sounds come when there Is a mist or fog covering its feeding grounds. The observations mentioned, it has been pointed out, apply both in the case of European and American wild creatures of the sheep genus, partlcularty in the case of our wild aheap of the Rocky mountain region.

It Is almost impossible to strain slimy milk through cheesecloth. A cow may contract It from an udder bruise, by lying on a cold floor, or from faulty feeding. Some cows have the trouble frequently. In such a case It is best to get rid of them. Others have it only occasionally and are cured by cutting down the feed and giving them a dose of epsotn salts and a teaspoonful of saltpeter in the feed each day for two or three days. Why Oranges Differ There are a large number of varieties of orange in cultivation, with differences in shipe, color, thickness of skin, Juice, etc. New varieties have been formed by grafting stocks from Africa, South America, Arabia, southern Europe, etc. The conditions of climate snd soil in California have favored the development there of the Washington navel orange, while Florida grows varieties that have shown themselves better adapted to climatic and soil conditions In that state. No general rule can be laid down about the thickness of skins; this depends on the variety of orange rather than on the place where it is grown. •iMkMIMMl Itugfd Oiu-fitM JUsr Amlm Ito mi nk W dx Cfciiwl* to • •qgpad H»«IM Mk (Hwd bf •!> fall Bmmrtng St*ming Gear mtikmmmi h Why We Quarrel Friendships have been broken.

The resulting effect of this idea usually takes effect In either one of two forms: they either change the market place for their cream or they try to economise on the feed that is consumed by the cows. Some cows that are star boarders should be put into the fattening pen. ?
