Roquefort Cheese BIG PACKAGE America ts to have Its own roque- fort cheese, which will look, taste, and smell Just like that which has been made near the village of Roque fort in southern France for 2,000 years. The French roquefort Is made from sheep milk and ripened in Cool, windy caves. Lacking the strain of milking Sheep and the windy caves.

Efficient Graf ling Tomatoes on Jimson Weeds 3. M. Hilton, a resident of Kershaw, Lancaster, county, 8. C., has had con siderable success In grafting tomatoes on Jimson weeds and growing a very hardy tomato, which Is blight and drought proof. According to speci mens exhibited, the meut of this toma- to-Jhnson fruit is llrmer than tlie regu lar tomato. Mr. Hilton plants his tomato seed according to custom, and when the plants get to the height of six or more Inches he grufts branches to the Jim son weed. A flrin-tieshed tomato and a bush that resists drought and blight have been the dteani of truckers. If his plnn, which has worked very suc cessfully on a small scale severul sea sons, can be enlarged to a commer cial scale, the graft system may be come a hobby with truck growers. 500,000 Miles of Cables Submarine cables are expensive things to make and lay, the 500,00(1 miles of cable In all at the bottom of the sen representing $.500,(XX),000, each line costing about >1.000 a mile.

About nine-tenths of the cable messages are sent ill code or cipher. Tko Man of It Itoland domineered, over his tittle alsler and mode her fetch and carry for him quite a lot.

Annual Rainfall Are Closely Related Thirty Inches Deep T he relation of suicide to climatic and other factors presents the results of the extensive statistical analysis of the relation of suicide to climatic and racial factors, and to Industrialism, occupation, urban conditions, age and sex. It has long been recognised that the suicide rate Is higher among the Nordic race than among Alpine or Mediterranean peoples. Mixed i>eo- ples usually have a higher rate thun either of the pure races to which they belong. Foreigners In New York show a higher suicide rate than in the countries from which they came, writes Dr. J. R. Milner In “American Journal of Hygiene.” The lowest rate Is found In Ireland and the highest In Saxony, while the rate varies In different parts of France, according to the racial com position of the population. Among Asiatic peoples, the Japanese and Chi nese rates are high, while tn India It ts low (4.8 per 100,000). India ap pears to be the only country where fe male suicides exceed the mate. The general trend of suicide rates has been upward during the Inst cen tury, but the higher rates tend to be come stabilized. Germany, France, Denmark and Sweden have high rates; Britain, Norway and the Netherlands low rates. In the United States the rates are lowest In the South and higher In the West. One Tagged Codfish Hooked Three Times Up to date the records of the re capture of 128 tagged fish have been received by the bureau of fisheries. Considering the vast area of the fish ing grounds off the New England and Canadian coasts these returns are thought to be quite satisfactory. Since the last week In October 15 tagged fish have been taken off the New Jersey coast. Indicating that the codfish are migrating toward the South. It ts expected that a compar atively large number of tagged fish will be caught in the vicinity of New Jersey during the coming winter and spring, and practically all pleasure fishing boats frequenting tills locality have been notified to watch for tags. While assembling the duta at hand a matter of unusual Interest was dis covered in connection with codfish, tag No. 231. This fish was tagged June 28, 1023, on Nnntucket Shoals, Mass. It was recaptured by the Halcyon on Oc tober 3, 1023, and again on October 15, 1023, In each case on Nantucket Shonts, where It was first tagged. It must be considered a rare occur rence to catch the same fish three times on n fishing ground many square miles In area nnd i t least 20 miles from land.—United States Fisheries Service Bulletin. First Telegram in 1792 The average person, if asked who Invented the telegraph, would answer unhesitatingly, Morse. In reality, how ever, what Morse invented was the electric telegraph. While Morse was still a child, a French scientist ijamed Claude Chnppe had perfected the first long-distance telegraph In the world. The first message sent by the new telegraph, from Lille to Paris, told of a glorious victory over the Austrians: “Conde Is restored to the republic.
