according to a eorreepondent of th. Tork
eUlre Obrrr. writing under dat. of March
. have lnoled about POO bale, of falrls
good average lota at about 1SH Bradford
l.rms. Of the new clip be aaya:
-We are now within a month of tho new
dip. for the Winter ba. been ery open, and
hould there not bo a cold blaat farmer, will
begin clipping operation, at tho and of
Karch. The flock, bar. not beea houaod

londitlon of the hair .hould bo good. Law

for aareral week, tho reault being that
mere waa a largo proportloa of dlacoiorod
h.lr.
-A. regard, th. quality of thl aeaaoa .
clip. eom. peoplw think that tba proportion
of kid hair will bo een amaller than It wa.
In 111. owing to tho faot that many bid.
dted of cold: other, belleeo that there m.y
be an Improvement upoo th. paat year, for
whereaa In 1910 the Winter waa protracted
and practically tha whole of tho klda were
killed. In loll It waa only tho March hide
that died. tboe. born In April and May sur
viving. Th. goat. hav been able to gra.
all through the Winter, ao that th. hair
hould be well grown and clean.
"Another probable eharacterutie of thla
year's clip I. that there will not be a mix
ture of tho hair from different district, aa
,u tba eaa. in 111. Dealer., finding that
their American buyer, mad. no objection to

wa. almoat Impoailbl. to dlatlngulah th.
origin or character of any given parcel, and
there are today thousand of bale. In .tock
hero which buyer, refuae to look at for tbla
reason.
Th general opinion I. that w. .hall ae.
lower price, but whether thl will b. th.
case or not will to a great extent depend
upon tho attitude of th. farmer., who are
well mipplled with money, and who will not
be compelled to Mil their hair at once to
meet preaalng need. uch a the payment of

Ca.sier'a Mag-aiine.
On of the interesting- thing about
the development of a new Industry such
a the bicycle, the automobile or the
flying machine, appears In the Influence
exerted upon the tools by which the
new product Is made.
A notable examale of this influence
is seen in the manner In which the
tremendous business developed in the
past 10 years In the manufacture of
automobiles has caused a corresponding
development In the production of the
forging which go into an automobile,
especially the drop forglngs An in
dustry already well known and a pro
cess extensively used have been stimu
lated to a marked degree by the re
quirements which have been made for
forging, of Intricate form and high
quality. The drop hammer, by which
such forglngs are made, has been im
proved, strengthened and Increased in
capacity to meet the demands, and both
the board dcop type and the steam
drop hammer have been perfected to a
wonderful extent simply because there
came a demand for an Immense amount
of work of an Important kind to be
done by such machines.
Italy's Tramps Are Lucl?y. '
Wide World Magazine.
Assuredly the tramp In Italy is a man
to be envied! Save for a coat to his
back and shoes to his feet there are few
things which he need worry about as
he passes from village to village in
that country of blue skies and sun
shine. Food he can find In the vine
yards and on the fig trees, drink is ob
tainable almost for nothing so plentiful
Is wine, and shelter I. provided for him
gratis by a benevolent government.
I was often struck during my recent
Journey in Northern Italy by the de
lightful publlo dormitories which are
erected by the roadsides throughout the
country, especially In the valleys lead
ing from the Mediterranean coast to
the hill towns of Llgurla. I visited a
dormltorlo publico on. the highway
near Camporosso, in the Nervia Valley,
and surely no wayfarer could desire a
more charming resting place. The au-
fthorities have placed it under the shade
of the olive trees, so tnat. However not
the sun may be, the foot-sore traveler
can obtain his much-needed siesta In a
perfectly cool place. It looked so at
tractive, standing there In the shade,
that I myself was almoat tempted to
escape from the sunshine and seek ref.
age beneath its hospitable roof.

SUM UP OF CUZCO MAN
The Discovery of Prehistoric Bones
in South America.
Tale Review.
1 xno i sia
rProfessor Bingham, lately returned
from a hair ytxir reconnaissance m
Peru, announces the latest of human
discovorles. Aside from the discovery
of Inca and pre-Inca ruins of wonder
ful perfection and preservation. Pro
fessor Bingham was fortunate enough
to find in a gravel bank near Cuzco
not only one bone but several of hu
man origin, together with those per
. 1 n 1 n- n ae ieer threw lower ani
mals. Realizing the skeptical attitude
of the scientific worm, me momucio
of the party decided to leave nothing
undone which would prove the truth
of their statements; so, as the remains
were soon found to be not an Interment
but actualy interstratifled with gravel
of glacial age. Professors Bingham and
Bowman excavated while Professor
Foote took photographs of every suc
cessive stage of the work. The bones
were then transferred to the hotel,
again photographed and packed for
shipment to New Haven. They prove
to be the bones of the thighs, hip, ribs
and a portion of the skull of three
human beings, two of whom were not
..m.ahi. In anv- wav. The .third.
however, represents a very thickset
man 01 low staturev qui bo i.r u tun
rather uncharacteristic bones go, ap
parently undifferentiated from modern
man.
The animal remains are those of the
guanaco (Lama guanacus), a living
denizen of South America, a dog-like
wolf or wolf-like dog, which Is not
specifically determinable, and a bovine
represented by the cannon-bone of the
left hind leg, a portion of the elbow
bone or ulna of the fore limb -and the
lower end of the first rib of the right
side. The first two bones are not suf
ficiently distinctive to differentiate the
animal from the domestic cattle on the
one hand or from the bison on the
other; they might well belorrg to either.
In the rib fragment, however. Dr. Eaton
believes he sees bison characters, and
not those of cattle; if so, it is the first
recorded Instance of bison south of
Mexico, and moreover it points to at
least one locally extinct type In the
collection. The presence of the bison
in South America is not scientifically
Impossible, for several species of fossil
bison are known In North America, and
the contemporaneous horee (or his de
scendants), which occupied the same
habitat and Is no more of a migrant,
traveled Into the southern continent as
soon
as the developing iana oriage per-
ml
ltted.
But the prof of the antiquity of this
man
n lies not in its meager associated

fact which, he rightly argues, points

In the light of man's antiquity in Eu
rope Is not so clear, for It is not yet
possible to correlate with any assur
ance a glacial deposit in South America
with th measured advances and re
treats of the great ice sheet of the Old
World. A conservative estimate of at
least 20.000 years has been given as
the probable age of the Cuzco man, a
mere fraction of the duration ot time
since the appearance of Pithecanthro
pus or the man of Heidelberg or
Neandertal; but Whether the age be
20,000 or 60,000 years, if this discovery,
which should be amplified by further
exploration, will bear the test of time.
Its Importance Is paramount as the
first authentic physical record of man's
existence in the prehistoric Western
world.
RUSSIA AS A NEW RIVAL
New in Competition as a Cotton
Producing Country.
New Tork Tribune.
The quite expected happens in the
intimation that Russia will enter Into
formidable rifalry with the United
States as . a cotton-producing country.
A bill will be laid before the Douma,
which the reactionary and antl-Amer-lcan
body will probably pass with lit
tle hesitation, appropriating a sum of
money for promoting the growth of
cotton in Turkestan and for substitut
ing other machinery for American in
the manufacture of textiles. The pro
posed appropriation is, it is true, only
$75,000, which we can scarcely regard
as a formidable commercial and indus
trial war fund; but perhaps the Intent
more than the amount is to be consid
ered. In ,that view of the case we
should say that there la no occasion
for panic or dismay in America, though
there is, as we have hitherto suggest
ed, need of some careful thought and
prudent prevision.
It is not to be expected that Russia
will suddenly place herself In the van
as a formidable competitor of America
In the cotton trade of the world. She
threatens It, but we have heard such
threats before. When this country in
sisted upon equitably treating Russia
as it did all other nations In the mat
ter of sugar bounties. It was intimated
that American agricultural machinery
would be practically excluded from the
Russian Empire. The fulfillment of
that threat would scarcely have had a
perceptible effect upon our export
trade. But, as we recall the circum
stances, it was not fulfilled, or not to
any noticeable degree. And we do not
know that Russo-American history Is
exempt from the common rule of self
repetition. Of course, Russia does pro
duce some cotton. We believe that her
total crop is somewhere about one
twelfth of that of. the United States
and ranks fourth among the nations of
the world. She Imports about 30 times
as. much cotton as she exports, and she
gets a large part of her raw cotton
from the United States. In these cir
cumstances we should doubt If the ex
penditure of $275,000 for the promo
tion of the Russian cotton industry,
agricultural and manufacturing, would
cause the cotton warehouses and
wharves of Savannah and New Orleans
to be deserted.
It Is nevertheless prudent to bear in
mind that there is a steadily growing
rivalry throughout the world to the
vast supremacy in the cotton trade
which the United States has enjoyed
ever since Ell Whitney's-epochal in
vention. At the present time we pro
duce approximately two-thirds of the
world's total crop. But the crops of
other countries are increasing and
gaining upon ours. British India, our
nearest competitor, now produces about
one-third as much as we, and Egypt
nearly one-sixth as much. The crops
of Russia and China are steadily in
creasing and Important Government
experiments are being made by both
Great Britain and Germany in Equa
torial Africa, with -eome promise of
success. While we need not be alarmed
at Russia's present threats, therefore,
there Is occasion to bear in mind the
need of watchfulness and enterprise,
and of the best possible Industrial and
commercial methods, If our great pri
macy In the cotton trade Is to be main
tained. HOLLAND'S MILLIONAIRES

there you are rated at "pounds" so
that to be worth fl,000,000 is really to
be worth $5,000,000. And in Holland
one can have $402,000 United States
money and be worth 1,000,000 florins
in fact, be a millionaire. In this way
a farmer with a large potato crop
might enter the ranks of millionaires
by simply possessing 1,000,000 tubers.
The standard of value, the value of the
determining unit has a great deal to do
with it. If the penny were the deter
mining unit one would still be rich, as
a millionaire with only $10,000.
Holland, which heretofore has been
relied on to lend large sums of money
all over the world, but which recently
ha fnnnii omnlnvmpnt for her canltal
at home and In her own colonies, has
only 568 millionaires, and of these
about 136 could qualify as millionaires
under the American dollar standard.
There are only 47 persons whose In
come approaches $40,000 . year, and
1368 who receive between $4000 and
$8000 annually. And yet. In proportion
Holland Is one of the wealthiest coun
tries in the world. A wealthy country
without great fortunes! Arrtl of the so
called millionaires there Is only one
who has retired from business.
This Is an Ideal condition of distri
bution. Industry and thrift seem to
have inured to the general spread of
prosperity, and the national humane
ness of sentiment seems to have been
an effectual barrier against the species
of speculative greed which makes the
few rich beyond all safety and the
many poor beyond all comfort. Poverty
is almost a thing unknown in this lit
tle country where the peace tribunal
sits. The corporation exists there, but
its shares are as a rule so generally
distributed as to give it the aspect of
a giant co-operative concern, and the
day of the small establishment shows
no signs of passing. It is a significant
fact that much of the money that goes
to make up the great loans Holland Is
able to give the rest of the world Is
the savings of the masses.
The explanation of this, of course. Is
not to be found in financial systems
as such, but In the temperament of
the people. They are placidly content
and industrious. Work with the hands
still holds its ancient and honorable
place. The people are untouched with
the craze for sudden riches and their
Inborn honesty makes it simply impos
sible for many kinds of parasitic ex
ploitation to find support among
them. They live In the traditions of a
great past, and in the sufficient com
forts of an unhastlng present, and
they are probably getting as much or
more out of life than their feverish
neighbor nations who heap up gold and
pile up effort for the excitement of the
game.
Emperor William, Painter.
Strand.
A favorite hobby of the Kaiser's Is
painting, and he Is a really capable
artist, with a leaning toward seascapes.
While at sea he passes much of his
time in sketching and painting, and
examples of his work are to be seen
In many royal palaces of Europe. Most
of the British royal residences contain
at least one picture from his brush,
including Windsor Castle, Buckingham
Palace, Balmoral (where a pair of ex
tremely well-drawn shooting pictures
are displayed), Sandringham and Marl
borough House. Mention of these works
of art by the Kaiser recalls the fact
that he likewise contributed a sketch
In what may perhaps be termed the
"vigorously impressionistic" school to
the unique collection that Queen Alex
andra and the Empress Marie of Rus
sia jointly own on the shores of the
Sound, 'close to Copenhagen. The pic
tures in the drawing-room here are all
by royal artists, and are one of the
most interesting little collections that
have ever been got together.

liceman will act In that capacity.
Palm Sunday in Switzerland.
Wide World Magazine.
On Palm Sunday morning in Switzer
land, the country children carry to
church decorated poles called "palms"
for courtesy, for the purpose of receiv
ing the blessing of the priests. The
"palms" are made of young pines
stripped of their branches and tastefully
decorated with colored paper and flying
ribbons. Rings of apples strung on
wires, and bouquets of box. holly and
other decorative shrubs, are also added.
Almost every village has a different
type of palm, and the best specimens
are to .be seen in the northern districts
of the country.
