They could never hnve given its new types of wheat which grow farther far-ther north than ever before, wheats which ripen from seed to harvest in so short a time that Immense new corn belts have been opened up, while the world price of wheat has tumbled. Chemistry may, any day, produce an artificial wheat product, as It has given us artificial dyes and drugs which amount to exact laboratory copies of what nature grows. Fifty years ago all the dyes used by man were obtained from plants, bark of trees, roots, Insects and so on. Today, these are superseded by thousands of exquisite artificial dyes made In an Infinite variety of shades, practically all derived from coal tar. This chemical development killed the woad-growlng Industry which went on for two thousand years in these Islands. It finished madder- growing in, France and ruined the indigo plantations of India.

The. supervisor of the Utah County As-sociatlon As-sociatlon is Howard D. Roberts, a; graduate of the Brigham Young' University. In the association for the past year has been 34 herds with an av- . erage number of cows included of 438. The herds have averaged 12.5 cows per herd and the average butter but-ter fat production per cow In' the association has been 330 pounds. The average milk production is 7,-805 7,-805 pounds. The total milk production produc-tion for the association for the year has been nearly 3 million pounds and approximately 150,000 pounds of butter fat. Despite the fact that butter fat has gone to low levels the average Income per cow over feed cost has been better than $12.00. Butter fat at the present time is selling below cost of production, as the records for the association show that the average feed cost per pound butter fat Is 21 cents. Twenty three herds are elgible for the certificate awarded by the National Na-tional Dairy Association for the Honor Roll of herds with a production produc-tion of 300 pounds butter fat or over and, therefore, either belong or will belong to the Gotapls Guild of America. These certificates will be awarded sometime during the year. ' . . The highest herd average in the county was 395 pounds butter fat per cow and the highest cow of the association made 560 pounds butter fat" ' Dairymen of the coHnty have gen erally signed up to continue the association in the county, which isi so important In the compiling , of records. These records give untold . information in connection with the selection of herd sires, elimination; of boarder cows and the establish-' ing of foundation females for the herd. I The various commutes cooperat ing for the continuance of the D. H. I. Association are: Spanish Fork, Lakeshore, Benjamin, Palmyra, Springville, Provo, Lakevlew, Pleas ant Grove, Manila, Lehl and Lin- don.

It was believed that it not only cured but warded off disease, and the plague was fought with tobacco smoke in Spain, France and England. Eng-land. Even now there are those who think that a chew of tobacco, placed on a wound, will heal It i Before the end of the Sixteenth century tobacco was grown not 6nly In Europe but in Turkey, China and many other outlying places. In the course of centuries it changed in flavor fla-vor and appearance because of the differences of climate and soil, so that now experts can tell where tobacco to-bacco was grown when they look at 1J or smell it Important Small Thingi Little failures and little successes, little faults and little virtues, a few kind words here, a few sharp words there, helping or hindering more than we know life made up of these small things.

Authorities bare tried to pin the Introduction of tobacco Into Europe ea one man or another but the reasonable rea-sonable theory la that It was brought back by Spanish sailors and sea captains, names unknown, who bought It from Spaniards that cultivated culti-vated It commercially in the West Indies, as far back as 1533. The tobacco to-bacco of the Island of Trinidad, for instance, became famous all over Europe, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Still, In the effort to be specific, one writer of records made the claim that a famous physician, Francisco Fernandes, who was sent to Mexico by Thllip n of Spain in 1358, was the first to take specimens speci-mens of the plant back to Europe. But this was several years after the Spaniards began exporting tobacco to-bacco from their plantations In the West Indies; and It was In 1560 that Jean Nicot. of nicotine fame. French ambassador to Lisbon, found the tobacco seed there that he sent to Paris, Sir John Hawkins was the first to take tobacco to England, which, be did In 1565, and history tells us that tobacco was growing there in 1570. nowever. Sir Walter Raleigh was a much more romantic figure, so It was more thrilling to pin the fact on him.

Tou know I was the luckiest fellow in the world to tall la with him at Vancouver on my way oyer to Cbina, tor be is a great traveling companion. Us has been everywhere in the world, and ha really knows how to get around. I hare prowled around a bit la my time, but I never seem to get any wiser, or onto things, but Floyd he sets you where you want to go and where something Is doing. He has a wonderful lecture ea China and the Far East I went dowa to the Theatre to hear it I was the local annoyer who was to Introduce t him. My wife was ao afraid that 1 1 la my long winded way would mo-j nopolise the whole evening.' She said, "Kow remember tonight you are Just a pawl bearer, you are not the Corpse, and its the Corpse they ! are Interested in." I Floyds main talk was that we! haven't got any more business In these Far East wars than we had In the last European one. He thinks seven thousand miles is a long way to go to shoot somebody, especially j U you are not right aure they need ' hooting, and you are not sure whether you are shooting the right side or not J He said it was a great war tor the convenience of war correspondents for they could go out and see one Army fight then come back through the International City and go out and then be wltb the opposite Army. Or you could get on a high building and watch the whole thing, In tact It was the only war ever fought where they had a grand stand. He bore out another thing that I had predicted In my articles, and that was that you wouldent hear of many prisoners being taken on either side in that war. Well he said their wasent for the Chinese have the reputation, even among their friends, of being the most cruel Nation In the world, even to their own people. It one Is only going to get bis head chopped off he Is tickled to death, that Is a beautiful death with them. That he Is not unmercifully tortured before death Is his fear, and the Japanese are not far behind em, so nobody on either side is going to be captured while they had a way of disposing of themselves. Another fellow was out to spend the day with me, a friend of Floyds, that come over on the boat with him, and is about the biggest financial finan-cial man in China, also in India, Sir Victor Sasoon, of the House of Sa-soon, Sa-soon, which is about the Rotchllda of England. He has tremendous holdings in Shanghai. I bet this war threw a scare Into him for awhile. He owns the wonderful Cathay Hotel in Shanghai, where we all live. He still has great faith In the Far East and thinks that It will come out O. K. He also knows more about India than anyone, as he was there tor years. He thinks that It was a clever scheme la England Eng-land getting Gbandi to go to the Conference in London, for that really showed him up as-Just being human, and not some God, or saper man. He says that Ghandl has no solution for anything, and that when he got there he had nothing to offer why It simply showed that he was no great ruler, or miracle man. And he thinks that Ghandl lost "face" by going. He says that the Boycott la India is working, and that the same la true in China against Japan. I can sure understand how those fellows get fascinated with that Far East I guess it geta you like the Desert They sure are both interesting inter-esting men to talk too, they have both been everywhere and seen about all there la to see, but they were both mighty anxious to see Hollywood, and me being the old "Night Hawk" here, I was the one could show em.

Extinction of Gigantic nCat" Hard to Explain A giant Hon considerably larger than the African animal of today and representing ene of the highest developments of 'killing" effectiveness effective-ness In the mammal world lived In North America at about the time this continent first was Invaded by human beings. Bones of the "atrocious cat," as It has been named In the Latin of science, have been found in asphalt deposits near Los Angeles by paleontologists pale-ontologists of the Carnegie Institution Institu-tion of Washington, together with bones of nbout 1,000 other animals of the cat tribe. "Fells strox" was a true king of cats, and probably of the whole animal world of his time. In the same deposit were found many bones of the almost equally ferocious fero-cious "smilodon," or sulier-tooth cat those of a puma closely related to the present American species, and those of a wildcat apparently identical iden-tical with a type still living in California. Cali-fornia. All these animals were flesh eaters. They were drawn to the asphalt beds to devour the carcasses of animals caught there, became trapped themselves, and perished. The puzzle the paleontologists are trying to work out Is why these great and frightful creatures, strong and fierce enough, to get all, the food they wanted by devouring other oth-er animals, perished completely at about the beginning of the historical histori-cal period, while the little wildcat lived on Into the present Man Has Long Dreimed 1 of Traveling in the Aii Although authenticated records! show that man rode the air sue- i cessfully only 140 years ago, avia-1 tlon as an idea is at least 2.noo ' years old. Indications are that men were ex-perlmenting ex-perlmenting with fantastic devices for the conquest of the air long before be-fore the birth of Christ, according to a compilation of ancient chronicles. chroni-cles. Although the narrated flight of Archytas of Tarentum In 400 B. C, recorded by Gellius, Is regarded largely as a flight of Imagination, it is accepted as an indication that even then men were attempting seriously se-riously to imitate the birds. "Many men of eminence among the Greeks and Favorinus, the philosopher," says Gellius, "have In a most positive manner assured us that the model of a dove or pigeon, formed in wood by Archytas, was so contrived as by a certain mechanical mechani-cal art and power to fly, so nicely was it balanced by weights and put In motion by hidden and enclosed air." Ovid's story of the fall of Icarus shows that the ambition was still alive In the First century of the Christian era, as does other mention men-tion of man-made wings and ships modeled after birds.

About SO of the easternly islands of. the group are British and constitute one of the "presidencies" or governmental govern-mental districts of the Leeward Islands colonial government Altogether Alto-gether these British Virgin islands have an area of 58 square miles, and a population of a little more than 5,000. Larger and more Important are the westerly Islands, formerly constituting con-stituting the colony of the Danish West Indies. The chief of these are St Croix (84 square miles,) St. Thomas (28 square miles) and St John (20 square miles), having a total population of about 26,000. This westerly group was purchased pur-chased by the United States In 191T for $25,000,000. They were given as an official name the "Virgin Islands Is-lands of the United States." But Americans often bob off the latter half of the official name and forget all about the Virgin islands which do not belong to the United States.

They clean their gloves and clothing in rooms where naked lights are burning. burn-ing. They cook over open fires wearing loose, hanging clothing, and then are surprised when they catch fire. And they will mount a pair of steps without first making sure that the steps won't collapse. But these stupidities pale beside the long list that the insurance expert can bring against the male.

Portuguese Portu-guese ambassador, Don Panteleon. There were high words, and the Portuguese was so embittered that the next day, after the pleasant custom of the time, he sent some hired ruffians to murder Gerard. They mistook their victim and killed another man. Pantaleon's culpability In the affair was established, es-tablished, and he was condemned to death. Meanwhile Gerard's plot was discovered and he, too, was condemned. Both men met on the scaffold, and whereas previously they had fallen out they now hung together."

The first remains of a child of this race, however, was found at La Qulna, In France, during the World war, and the second at Gibraltar In 1926.
