The time-honored belief that wheat is
the chief article of consumption among
the nations of the earth is destined to
be rpdely shattered. According to re
cently published statistics, wheat no
longer takes first rank among the food
products. In fact it comes third, after
potatoes and corn, the ratio standing:
Potatoes, 4,000,00 ,() bushels; corn,
2,000,000,000; wheat 2.500,000.000; rye,
1,300,000,000; and barley, 750,000,000.
There are, according to the table of sta
tistics, two nationalities wibch are far
ahead of all others In the consumption
of potatoes the Irish and Germans
the one consuming four pounds per
head daily, the other three and one
half, while the American Is a very poor
potato eater, getting away with only
two-thirds of a pound a day. The
greatest wheat consumers are the
French, with 467 pounds per bead an
nually; the British, with 250; the Amer
icans, with 240; the Germans, with 180;
and the Russians, with only 90 pounds
per year. Barley and rye are substi
tuted for wheat In Germany and rye
and oats In Russia. These statistics
destroy another Illusion. It has been
for generations the belief that John
Bull leads the world In meat consump
tion, but he does not It Is Uncle Sam
who leads in this as In other things and
disposes of 150 pounds annually per
capita, while England conies next with
100 pounds. The Irish and the Italians !
consume very little meat the one on!
an average not over 30, the other not
over 25 pounds all the year round, the
deficiency being made up In potatoes
and vegetables. In eggs America again
leads all creation, the annual consump
tion amounting to 133 per head, while
Canada shows up with only 80, France
with 78 and Germany with 75. In
sweetness England outranks all crea
tion. It gets away annually with 80
pounds of sugar per head of popula
tion, and after England comes Amer
ica with 73 pounds, while the Span
iards use but 7 pounds the year round.
In drinking the American Is more mod
erate than the German or the British;
he Is satisfied with 15 gallons to the 22
of the German, the 30 of John Bull.
And while the German smokes his 48
ounces of good tobacco, the American
has up to date consumed only 43
ounces, and, on account of the war rev
enue, will have to get along with less
hereafter. Taking It all in all, the
Americans, the English and the Ger
mans know how to eat and drink, and
If a man Is what he eats then they are

and 'bade theiu i-rcuiptorily play or
pay. Thereupon Anant Ham set a small
cloth on the ground very gently, and
called loudly to have the first go. The
"Lord of Devils" did uot stand upon
the order of his going, agreed on the
lnstaut; and his two pupils turned up
a large basket in the middle of the ring,
and shook out of It about niue feet of
that poisonous constrictor, the great
bamadryad, or king cobra. It is the
only snake in India that attacks of it
self at all times. Its fierceness and
courage are only equaled by the bright
ness of Its colorings and the strength
of its coils. It can poison as mortally
and strangle as surely as any snake In
the world. The Egyptian cerastes at
tacks and bites; the fer-de-lauee of St.
Lucia drops from tha tree, vicious and
fatal, on the horseman. Hut they are
not constrictors. The great hamadryad
rears Its green length of active, two
fold, ferocious death In unparalleled
dreadfulness.
Anaut Kam threw up his arms over
his head as the double horror rushed
hissing at him; in a breath Its coils
were around him. Its fangs tearing his
arms. He flung hlruscl! down at the
pain; and, put about by this sudden
act the snake stopped biting a moment
to tighten Its coils. Then it reared a
quarter of Its body above bis head, and
as quickly as it could Iwnd and strike
bit him horribly In the neck under the
left ear. On the instant It Jerked out
its fangs with a shrill whistle, and fell
all slack about him; he had bitten clean
! through its back, and was tearing Its
body asunder with frenzied hands. He
rose bleeding, dusty, wild-eyed, and
ghastly; staggered to the cloth that hid
his snake and yelled: "Quick! to the
trial! All three of you! Quick!"
The "Lord of Devils" and his pupils
hustled round him; he whipped away
the cloth, and bared to their eyes a lit
tle, crooked, gray-brown stick. They
stared at It they stared at one another,
and slowly knowledge came to them
They knew how Anant Ram had con

NIGHT IN THE STORM.
Peri Ions Esperience Upon the Open
Prairie in the West.
George F. Ruxton gives. In "Adven
tures In the Rocky Mountains," a thrill
lng description of a night spent on the
open prairie In a blizzard. The advent
of the storm was sudden and terrible.
Black, threatening clouds descended
until they touched the earth; a hollow
murmurswept through the bottom, but
not a branch stirred In the wind; the
naked cottonwoods stood like ghosts.
I knew what was coming, and turned
my horse toward the timber two miles
distant Before we bad covered half the
distance the tempest broke upon us.
1 ne ciouas openea ana arovc in our
faces a storm of freezing sleet, which
frose upon us as It felL
The first squall of wind carried away
my cap, and the enormous hailstones,
beating on my head and face, almost
stunned me. My hunting shirt was
soaked In an Instant and as quickly
frozen bard, and my horse was a mass
of Icicles. To ride was Impossible, and
I Jumped off snd covered my bead wltb
the ssddle blanket
The horse and the following mules
turned their sterns to the wind, and
made for the open prairie. I was un
able to drive them to the shelter of the
timber.
Perfect darkness soon set In. still
the animals kept on, and I followed or
rather was blown after them. My blan
ket, frosen stiff, required all the strength
of my numbed fingers to prevent its be
ing blown swsy. In an Incredibly
short time two feet of snow covered the
bare prairie, and through this we floun
dered on til we could go no farther.
The animals stopped, huddled togeth
er, and would not move, xhausted, I
sank down, and covering my head with
the blanket crouched like a ball la the
snow, expecting certain death.
The wind roared over the prairie,
driving the snow before It burying me
aad the animals. For boars I remained
with my head oa my knees, with the
pressing like a weight of lead
It. At short Intervals the mules

sky. The storm had ceased,

The turning back of the waters of the
Red Sea by a strong wind, as told in
Exodus, was recated last spring In
presence of Major Tullock. who has re
ported the facts to the British Govern
ment A wind arose so violent that It
drove all the waters buck, leaving all
the sailing vessels stranded on the
sandy led of the sea.
Electric power derived from the wa
terfalls of Tivoll, which constitute one
of the most famous gems of Italian
scenery, is now transmitted about fif

the Eternal City Is so striking a re
minder of the universality of modern
practical science.
Some plants stow away starchy ma
terial in their leaves, seeds or roots for
future use. The slow chemical com
binatlon of this substance with oxygen
is a form of combustion, and produces
warmth. It Is by this means that the
tiny Alpine flower is able to melt a
passage for Itself up through the ice,
and find Its way to liberty and sun
shine. In Bavaria an effort has been made
to Introduce Into commerce what may
be termed solidified petroleum. Soda
lye, fat and ts'troleum are heated to
gether for an hour, and give a soap
like product, which solidities on cool

may be mixed with the material, and
It can be made into bricks for fuel, it
would give a very smoky flame.
Among the most wonderful monsters
of the Age of Reptiles was the ichthyo
saurus, or "flsb-llzard," Ijtst summer a
very perfect specimen was uncovered
In a quarry at Stockton, in Warwick
shire, England. The creature is twenty
feet In length, Its head alone being
almost four feet long. The ichthyo
saurus possessed gigantic eyes, whose
lenses could be focused at will for dif
ferent distances. It hunted Its prey In
the sea.
An Instrument has been made In Eng
land to be sent to Japan. Its use Is to
measure the blow of a wave. A similar
apparatus was used to measure the
wave-blow off the Skerryvore Rock.
Scotland. There the waves sweep In
from the wide Atlantic. In summer a
force of over GOO pounds to the square
foot was recorded. In winter as high as
a ton to the square foot was attained.
This gives an Idea with what ships,
lighthouses and other similar struc
tures have to contend.
On the 0th of last Septemlwr an im
mense sunsfiot which, with Its attend
ant smaller siiots, bad unexpectedly
made Its appearance more than a week
before, crossed the central meridian of
the sun's disk, and that same night
magnificent displays of the aurora bu
reaus were seen. At the same time
magnetic needles were disturbed. This
Is one of the most striking Instances in
recent years of the connection between
spots on the sun and magnetic disturb
a noes on the earth. While the great
spot was crossing the sun, uncommon
ly warm weather for the season was
experienced on both sides of the Atlan
tic, and some have suggested that this,
too, was a phenomenon connected di
rectly with the solar disturbance.

Keeping Pntatoev
A correspond' tit of Farming srggeets
that potatoes will keep best at a low
temperature, a little above freezing.
Many potatoes are spoiled by being
kept In too warm a place during the
early fall and late spring. Tbey should
be kept in a dry place. If it will keep
dry. a deep cellar Is preferable, for the
reason that It is more likely to have
a low uniform temperature, and will
not be reduced to freezing temperature
so readily as more shallow ones. The
bins in a potato cellar should not be too
large. A three-hundred bushel bin
should be the largest used. Smaller
ones would suit better. Slatted floors
for the bins and slated walls between
the bins, which allow the sir to pass
around them, are better than close
walls or floors. The circulation of air
which they allow keeps the potatoes
dry and prevents heating.
It Is not a good plan to put potatoes In
the cellar aa soon as they are dug. It Is
better to put them In pits In the field
until the weather gets cold enough to
freeze the ground a few Inches deep.
In pitting them temporarily, If the I
ground is wet, put the potatoes In
conical pile on the surface; but, If the
ground Is dry, dig a shallow pit for
them and use the dirt out of It for cov
ering. After the potatoes have been
placed In sn even conical pile, cover
them with a layer of pea or other straw
about four Inches thick, and then cov
er them with from three to five Inches
of dirt. In such a pit potatoes will keen
through a severe frost.
