JHIS PAPER REPRESCHTLD FCR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES. This is the season of the year when the weather man is pretty sure to in- crease his batting average. ‘What has become of the old fash- ioned man who used to nod his head when the preacher said that appealed to him? something Another pathetic little feature of everyday life is the way a man al- ways thinks that the next automo- bile he gets won't give him a parti- cle of trouble. i If baseball was played in the win- ter time these expert fly catchers could help about sanitary work dur- ing the summer months, when they The batters too, could do some expert swatting stunts. are most needed. Would It Pay? Three years ago the organized far- mers of De Kalb County, Illinois, de- cided to hire a soil doctor. They rais- ed $3,000 a year toward his $4,000 pay. The county gave the other $1,- 000 and loaned an automobile. The “doctor” visits two farms a day, sizes up the crops, notices when the corn or clover or alfalfa is not looking tip top and proceeds to make a chemical analysis of the soil, which tells what elements of plant food are lacking. Partial results of his work have just been tabulated. He has cost, to date, $12,000. He has added 10 bush- els to the average yield of corn per acre, There are 100,000 corn land in the county, which means acres of a gain in this one crop of $500,000. Other yields have also been improved, though figures are not yet available. Three years ago the average selling price of land in De Kalb county was $150 an acre. It is now $190. There s not as much préjudice that county against “text book farming.” as there used to be in Perhaps this little experience ex- plains why the graduates of the best agricultural colleges are snapped up as quickly as they -get their gheep- skins and in some instances there are| more jobs than men. Perhaps it explains why the aver- age first year earnings of these col- lege-trained specialists in the useful art of making more things grow on a ziven area than grew there before ex- ceed by several hundred dollars the average first-year ea.rniligs of grad- uates of our colleges of law, medicine, theology, architecture and mining, mechanical and civil engineering. It’s fine business, farming, when you know how. Beltrami county could use a “soil doctor” to good advantage, not be- cause the soil isn’t first class, but for the purpose of teaching the farmers to use it to the best of advantage. Principle.

Il‘mv.- < It does not seem too . great, this sculpture punishment for a daugh- ter’s cruelty to her mother.. The huge marble group known as The “Farnese| Bull” has in it the majesty of the pagan gods, the terror and suffering of the human soul. It is one of the ‘wondrous monuments of the Greek sculptors, whose unequaled ‘art died with them It is believed to have been modeled in the third century before the Christian era; but no one knows its history, not even how long it slept in the baths of Caracalla, where it | was discovered in 1646 It was taken to Rome and housed in the Farnese Palace, on which Michelangelo work- ed, and from wkich the group, like many other artworks there, takes its name. There is the usual tangle of rela- tionships in the story of the statue, and, as is usual in mythology, the story has many different versions. Really these tales are nothing more than folklore, handed down from generation, each teller embroidering or ‘even changing it, to suit his own fancy. One tale is that Lycus, the king of Thebes, married Antiope. Antiope was very oeautiful. Apparently all the ladies in the pagan -world ‘retained their beauty and attractiveness as long as they lived unless the gods changed them into another form. But the Plithe way in which the clement of time is ignored in these tales may haye something to-: do with if. Antiope had a daughter, Dirce, and in spite ©f her beauty the affections of Lycus turned from mother to daughter. - He put Antiope aside and married Dirce. The cruelty with which Lycus and. espec- mlorden of the stomach may bt avolded by the use of Chamberlain! Many very . remarkabl been effected by these| tablets. Scldby&rut' rug:Store. ially Dirce treated Antiope is one of the great scandals of Greek mythol- ogy. Antiope, who could not stand. the humiliation, fled - to the mountains: There she had two sons by Jupiter— Amphion ‘and: Zethus.: Apollo, the:God of-the'Sun, being attracted to Amph-| ion, gave him a lyre; and he thence- forth practised song and music, while his. brother.spent-his.time .in hunting. and in tending flocks.: ‘When' they grew up the brothers learned of the wrong that Lycus.and Dirce had done their mother Antiope, and they decided to punish the guilty pair. So “they marched . against ‘thebes.” It doesn’t seem to be clear whether they had an army behind them or whether they took the city. double-handed, so ‘to speak. It must be remembered that they were the sons of Jupiter, and, if that allpower- ful god was on their side, they were prepared to overcome any difficulty. At any rate, all the authorities agree that Amphion and Zethus' did capture Thebes They put Lycus to death promptly; but Amphion thought that Dirce did not deserve a sudedn, painless death. He tied her to a bull who dragged her about until she perished. This terrible punish- ment for a daughter’s ingratitude made a powerful appeal to'the ancient artists and writers. The “Farnese Bull” shows the moment of the death of Dirce. It is an epic in marble on the punishment deserved by an un- | grateful child."” After the death of Dirce, Amphion is credited with:the most remarkable recorded. He and his brother decided to fortify Thebes, inasmuch as they concluded to rule it themselves. The narratives seem to agree that all he had to do was to walk around the city, play his lyre, and stones moved of their own accord and formed the wall.
