After the legislature had refused to adopt the sagebrush as the emblem of the state of Nevada, requests by " woman's clubs throughout the state obtained a reversal of the former ac- tion, and the desert shrub has been officially adopted by the present ses- sion as the state insignia. Nevada has been known for years as the Sage- brush state, but the name was applied, not because of a legislative action, but because of the large proportion of Nevada covered by shrubbery.—Car- son City Correspondent Portland Ore gonian, Value in thé Coyote. ‘Western hunters who have despised the coyote as a worthless creature, to be killed if the sheep are to be pro- tected, now find that a dead coyote 1s worth more than a live sheep. They. are getting eight dollars or more for each coyote pelt. The tough hide and warm fur make coyote skins especial- ly valuable for clothing for the sol- diers in the trenches in Europe.—~ Youth’s Companion. Proved.

Aw?ul Condition of Natives of Hayti, Who Can't Afford Shoes, Cited as Warning. An argument very frequently ad- vanced to justify radical changes in our present mode of living is the hack- neyed reference to customs in animal life, or that of our primeval ancestors. “The animals do it; why shouldn’t it be natural, for we are all animals?” Is the usual way of presenting it. The casting aside of many of our modern articles of clothing would be a great advantage to the human race in the course of a few generations, but certain reversions to antiquity some- times recommended are dangerous or impossible. The most notable of these relates to discarding shoes and advo- ‘cates bare feet. The barefoot theory has much to recommend it, an exchange says. Mod- ern shoes are a practical abuse of the feet and choke off the elimination of body poisons. Yet that the shoe and stockings cannot be entirely discarded has recently been proved by medical observation of the condition of the na- tives’ feet in the island of Haytl, in the West Indies. Of the 3,000,000 inhabitants of this land there are probably not more than a few thousand who wear shoes or stockings. The population is so poor and degraded, the laborer’s daily wage 80 low, that such articles of dress as a pair of shoes are looked upon as a rich man’s supreme luxury. As a result of such a state of affairs, the feet of the majority of the natives are diseased and in frightful condition. In this re- gard it is worthy of note that most of the population are of the African race, not accustomed to shoes as the Cau- casian races have been.

Hearing that a friend of his had gone to spend the summer in a pro- hibition village, David Warfleld sent bhim a case of Scotch whisky. As none of the expressmen was M- censed to deliver liquor, the case rest- ed for a couple of weeks in the express office, and finally the man to whom 1t was directed was notified to call at the express office and explain the contents of the box. As the name of the brand ‘of ‘whisky was blazoned iam large let- ters on the side of the box, the man saw that there was no possible chance of passing it off either as patent medl- cine or ginger ale. “Ah, yes! This was sent by Mr. David Warfleld, the musie master.” For half g minute the expressman looked at the man sneeringly, then with a superior smile he exclaimed: “You can have the box if you’'ll cart it away. It's addressed to you and I know it's whisky. But don’t never try to make me swallow that music yarn. That box didn't come from no music teacher.” Corn on the Cob. From Maine comes the good news that the season for corn on the cob 18 to be made to include 12 months ev- ery year, says the Boston Herald. The man who loves to pick an ear of cofn from the platter, spread it deep with butter, sprinkle it generously with salt, then gnaw the corn from the cob in the way that nature intended such things to be attended to will no long- er have to limit that sort of gastro- nomic ecstasy to the months of late summer- and early fall. For Maine, where the industry of canning sweet corn is recognized the world over as without a rival, has begun to can sweet corn on the cob. It has been done in a small way before, but this year it blossoms into real industry— 80 much of an industry that one con- cern there has recently booked a sin- gle order for 10,000 cases of 24 canl to the case. ; OWN A Woodstock It is a better typewriter Guaranteed for 2 years.

Not many years ago I had seventy barrels of potatoes, all abvut the size of a small hen's egg. writes a New York farmer in American Agricultur- fst. The buyer did not want these., 80 I sorted out a load, and they were planted in the field with others. The small potatoes were busheled up at digging time and the best sorted out for big seed. These potatoes all were planted June 12. The field of two acres yielded 300 bushels to the acre. I prefer a potato of natural size. I cut the potatoes into four pieces. When whole potatoes are planted they start earlier than the cut ones. The ideal way to make memoranda and carry infor- mation that you need fre- quently. Covers last for years.
