I The long drouth in the great wheat ? growing area of the j ' northwest became acute a few days ago. Clouds of dust billow ed over thousandsof square miles and drifted hundreds of miles 1 beyond. It looked like the crop was doomed and prices soared. | Late rains have vastly inproved the prospects. Congressman Win. B. Um stead, candidate for the re-nom ination to succeed himself, is re questing the support of his friends in the June primary. He is detained in Washington on j account of important business | pending in Congress and feels that it is his duty to^ be there, therefore he will not be able to make a canvass of this district and see his friends. On Tuesday an election was | held in Burlington to i>ermit a property tax levy for the sup port of the city schools. The measure failed to carry. The vote was against the registra tion, as provided by law in such cases, and not voting meant a vote against the measure. The large property owners who pay the bulk of the taxes were for the tax and are not responsible for the defeat of the proposi tion. Just why parents will deny to their children the ben efits which others are willing to pay for is not only passing strange but woefully short sighted. The Luke Leas, senior and junior, after more than three years battling in the courts over charges against them in the dis astrous failure of the Central Bank & Trust Company o f Asheville, were clothed in strip es at the State prison last Thurs day. For the younger Lea his step-mother has filed applica tion with the Governor for par don or commutation of sentence of two to four years in prison or a fine of 1^5,000. The plea is based on his age, 21 or 22, at the time, and physical condition Her interest and concern is worthy of the best of natural mothers. Tb> Nature of Braille Six dot*, arranged Ilka the all (lots of a domino, give the blind a key which opens out for them the whole range of literature and music. By cut ting out one or more of these dots, sixty-three dlfTerent combinations can be formed, and the Inter-comhlnatlons possible are Innumerable. This Is the famous Rrnllle system, called Braille after Its Inventor, and It Is used by blind readers and writers In every part of the world. The sixty three combi nations allow sufficient variety to cov er any ordinary alphabet and also the punctuation marks and contractions. They can also be applied to numerals and music symlmls.

"Safety First" The bureau of mlues says that the phrase "Safety First" became a na tlonal slogan In the year toil, when the bureau of mines gave a national safety-Arst demonstration at Pitts burgh. Pa. Previous to this, the phrase "Safety Is the First Condderation" was used on the stationery and among the employees of the H. C. Frick Coke and Steel company of Pittsburgh and the Illinois Steel company of Chicago But since the national demonstration these Arms and a great many others dealing with safety appliances have adopted thla phrase.

Rale of Finger Nail Growth The nail on the middle finger grows faster than any other, while the thumb nail is the slowest growing nail. As a rule, the nails on the right hand grow faster than those on the left. The nails on an invalid s hands grow considerably faster than on the. hands of a healthy person. Taken on the average the rate of growth Is one eighth inch a month, or from one to one and one-half Inches a year.
