Vinson McLean Protected from Kidnapers by an Elaborately Designcd Apparatus Which Seems Like Prison. A steel cage on wheels, cunningly wrought by skilled craftsmen and guarded by locks of the most complicated design, for Vinson McLean, America's $100,000, 000 baby, is the latest and most startling novelty which two fond parents have taken to Bar Harbor, Me., to protect this boy from kidnapers. This steel cage perambulator has followed as a result of the recent attempt of burglars to breal into the Edward Beale McLean home at Indianapolis. A thousand curious eyes at a distance followed the perambulations of the strange little steel prison in which this baby now takes his morning's airing. Bar Harbor society is intensely interested over the thousand and one ironclad safeguards which have been drawn around this pro digy of wealth. The McLean baby is guarded now as carefully from all save hWs nurse and detective warders as if he were a little prisoner held as a hostage. Whenever he goes out of doors he goes in his carriage cage, padlocked, and detectives armed with the latest firearms follow the baby and his nurse to and fro across the lawn wherever the ride leads. The strange, prison-like, baby carriage is made of wrought steel, with an upper body that automatically locks with the hood of the vehicle, the body being set on wheels and the whole being covered with fine mosquito netting. Never for an in stant is the child left without one or more attendants on guard. Detectives, private watchmen, thirty house servants and fifty outside retainers are all en listed in protecting this child marvel from kidnaping. No such wall of pro tection has ever before been thrown around a human being in this country. .These ironclad precautions that have been taken for the baby McLean's safety are felt to be necessary by both his father amid mother because of the wide publicity that has been given to the child's poten tial fortune, and the consequent notice to criminals of the baby's "value" as a hostage.

No farmer in Louisiana who has a head of stock-be it a horse, cow, sheep or hog -should fail to plant a good-sized patch of oats this fall. Probably no farm crop pays better than oats if we consider the time during which the land is used, the small amount of labor required, and the feed value of an acre of oats. Yet, it is safe to say that Louisiana does not plant 1 per cent as much oats as it ought to. Fall-planted oats are preferred to spring planting. The land should be thoroughly broken and pulverized as early in October as possible. If it is possible to use land on which cowpeas have been growing, this should be done. The peas should be turned under an inch or two deeper than the usual depth for breaking the land. Oats should be sown from the latter part of September to early in November. No seed should be used in Louisiana but the Red Rust-Proof. About two bushels per acre should be sown, rich land requiring less seed than poor land. Fall-planted oats make a heavier growth and yield more forage or grain than do spring oats. Besides, fall oats may be pastured to hogs or other stock for about two months dur ing winter, when green food is short. Dept. Agricultural Extension, Louisiana State University. An Automobile for the Boys. At the close of the state fair, which will be held at Shreveport November 2 to 11, 1910, the best corn exhibits by the boys of the corn clubs will be sent to the National Corn Exposition, which will be held at Columbus, Ohio, January 30 to February 12, 1911. All boys' corn clubs of the southern states will go into competi tion. The premium for this contest as announced by the secretary of the expo sition will be a Brush automobile. This premium will be awarded on the basis of the rules and regulations issued by the office of the Boys' Demonstration Work, Washington, D. C. The basis for award ing the prize is as follows: a-Greatest yield per acre, 30. b-The best exhibit of ten ears, 30. c-Best written account of the crop, 30. d-Best showing of profit, 30. For further information concerning the automobile premium, address V. L. Roy, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, La. Besides an automobile, more than $400 will be awarded in premiums to southern boys at the Columbus Exposition.-Dept. Agricultural Extension, Louisiana State University. It Takes Lots of Training to Play Ball. Boys, you have played ball, and you know that a man cannot get into the Na tional League unless he has had thorough training. Then is it not just as essential that he get a thorough practical training to enter successfully into the great busi ness enterprises of this country? If you were about to lose an eye, would you em ploy some one to treat it who had never made a specialty of the eye and hadn't a certificate from a reliable college? If you had an in'portant case in court, would you employ a man as your attorney who had never been admitted to the bar and had never made a special study of law? Why then, young man, could you think for a moment of entering the business world without first taking a thorough bus iness training in some first-class school and obtaining a certificate of proficiency? We are living in a commercial age and in one of the greatest conmnercial countries on the globe. Competition is close, and only those who are thoroughly prepared may hope to succeed in this day and time I in building for themselves a satisfactory business, a business that will produce the profits that will enable them to own pleas ant homes and enjoy life as they should.

The hat plays a considerable part in civilization as a sign and a symlzl quite apart from its purpose as a shet cer against the weather. In the moth I sr of parliaments the etiquette regard ;ng it is so elaborate that new mem bers frequently find themselves in. voived in difficulties. There are two peers who to this day possess the right of remaining covered in the :)resence of royalty, if they care to ex ercise it. And the king always puts on his field marshal's hat before he reads the speech to the assembled lords and commons.

Twelve Thousand Consumptives in Penal Institutions of Country-Fifteen Per Cent of Prison Population Affected. That there are 12,000 tuberculous pris oners in the state, federal and local prisons and jails of the United States, with less than 25 special institutions and hardly 800 beds for their treatment, are some of the charges made by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. From several investigations that have been made, it is estimated that on an average about fifteen per cent of the prison population of the country is af flicted with tuberculosis. On this basis, out of the 80,000 prisoners housed in the penal institutions of continental United States at any given time, not less than 12,000 are infected with this disease. If the Philippine Islands and other insular possessions were taken into consideration, the number would be much larger. Some of the prisons of Pennsylvania, Kansas and Ohio show such shocking conditions with reference to tuberculosis that many wardens admit that these places of deten tion are deathtraps. Similar conditions could be found in almost every state, and in the majority of cases the only sure remedy is the destruction of the old buildings and the erection of new ones. Only twenty-one prisons in fifteen states and territories have provided special places for the treatment of their tuberculous prisoners. These institutions can accommodate, however, only 800 patients. In three-fourths of the major prisons and in practically all the jails of the country the tuberculous prisoner is al lowed freely to infect his fellow prisoners, very few restrictions being placed upon his habits. When the congregate mode of prison life is considered, the danger of infection becomes greater than in the general population. New York and Massachusetts are the only states where any systematic attempt has been made to transfer all tuberculous prisoners to one central institution. The largest prison tuberculosis hospital is in Manila, where accommodations for 200 prisoners are pro vided. The next largest is Clinton Person Hospital in New York, which provides for 150. The fact that 100,000 prisoners are dis charged from the jails and prisons of the country annually, and that from ten to fifteen per cent of them have tuberculo sis, makes the problem of providing special places for their treatment while they are confined a serious one. So im portant is the problem that the Prison As sociation of New York in co-operation with the State Charities Aid Association, is preparing to inaugurate a special cam paign for the prevention of tuberculosis in the penal institutions of the state, and will seek to enlist the co-operation of all prison physicians and anti-tuberculosis societies in this work.
