Imagine,
If I am writing et full speed, I

feet, Thle means that, if I write at

more work than you might perhaps

Let us turn to painting, says 3 Or --
respondent In Answers. Did you ever
'ay to realize how many strokes an
artist makes with his' brush while
painting a portrait? The number has,
be couuted on two separate occa-
sions, end each time it worked out at
elmost exactly 20,000. '
Knitting a pair of socks is not
thought much of a job by the skilled
knitter, but It means a sight more
work than you might suppose. In an
ordinary pair of socks there are 100
rows, each averaging some seven
inches long, and •over seventy
stitches in each row at the widest
part.
'rwo such cylinders only seven
inches long would require 20,000
stitches, but a sock is more then
eevea inches long and it is eot a raere
cylinder, for the heel has to be con-
sidered, so that the actual number of
stitches greatly exceeds 20,000.
Fruit-pickine, is so simple a mat-
ter that children are employed at it.
Picking strawberries is not bad, ex-
cept for the constant stooping, but
picking raspberries is a really trying
business. The fruit is small and ex-
tremely tender.
Last summer I watched raspberry -
pickers on the great raspberry farms
in Perthshire, and noticed that the
average number of fruit picked. per
minute did not exceed twenty, and
was oftea no more than twelve. Even
twenty a minute is only 1,200 an
hour, and I am quite sure that the
average was much below this. I
should put it at about SOO.
Let us glance at another agricul-
tural pursuit—ploughing. You might
not think that this was specially ar-
duous work, for, after all, the horses
do the pulling. Well, my advice is
to try it and see. Then you will rea-
lize the extraordinary difficulty in
cutting anything like a straight
furrcre.
At a ploughlug roateh at Thurne,
in Norfolk, in evhiele there were see-,
enty-one competitors, three furrows
were found to be exact. They were
straight lines. •The eighteenth prize
went to a furrow that was only two
inches out.
But there is more than that in
ploughing. The expert eye of the
judge looks, among other things, for
the number of furrows to the rod,
which should be exactly twenty; the
total overturning of the soil, the com-
plete burial of the weeds, and the
depth of the furrow, usually exactly
seven inches.
Even such a seemingly simple mat-
ter as cabbage planting is not nearly
SO simple as you might suppose.
There are five separate motions in
the work of the well-trained planter.
(1) Stooping with the left foot for-
ward; (2) driving a hole in the soil
with the dibber; (3) putting in the
plant with the other hand; (4)
earthing it with the dibber; (5) heel-
ing the plant in with the heel of the
right foot. A planter properly train-
ed can put in 5,000 plants in a day.
Finally, take cooking. An Amer-
ican "efficiency engineer" has been

cook takes 446 steps itt preparing ,

Oregon libun's Collection of Stamps
Valued at $50,000.
Collecting of staps is More than
a hobby with N. X. Russell a Granta
Pass, Oregon. ,
RusselPs collection has a cata-
logee vahle or aenroximately $50,000
end contains more than 45,000
stamps gathered from practically all
Italians of the world.
Russell keeps his collodion stored
away in a vault, much like a count**
banker tiles away his mortgages. Hie
thdex system, by which he keeps a
d'omplete cheek on his collection, is
contained in eighteen volumes, His
stamps would fill a good-sized truck.
Stamp collecting, according to Mr.
Russell, carries with it more romance
than • the average, person appreciates.
Recently the Grants Pass collector
has added to bis collection i rare
stamp of the Livingston, S.C, local
issue, This stamp, Mr. Russell asserts,
has a catalogue value of $1,350, be-
cause it is the only Stamp of a single
issue printed by the South Carolina
town during the war between the
States,
It was not without a bit of ro-
mance that the philatelist gained pos-
session of the rare specimen, Mr.
Russell, who has just returned from
a vacation in the Oregon mountains,
had occasion to accept the hospitality
of an old couple living in a mountain
cabin,
During the evening spent • at the
fireside, Mr. Russell mentioned that
he engaged in collecting stamps,
whereupon his hostess informed him
that she had a packet of old letters
In an old trunk which she had owned
since leaving the south as a bride.
Examination of the stamps reveal-
ed several valuable series, including
the Livingston stamp, also one issued
by the Knoxville, Tenn., post office
having a catalogue value of $100.
Despite the protests of his hostess
that the stamps were of no value, Mr.
Russell, the following morning, suc-
ceeded in pressing a ;5 bill into the
hands of the former Carolina belle,
On reaching Grants Pass, Mr. Rus-
sell determined the real ;value of the
collection and immediately forwarded
his hosts a substantial sum of money.
Despite that Mr. Russell refuses to
be classified as a. dyed -in - the - wool
stamp collector be has repeatedly dis-
played the characteristics of *ell col-
lectors of stamps by refusing to sell
all or part of his collection.
During the World's Columbian Ex -
Position in 1893 Mr. Russell first be-
came fired with the desire to be a
stamp collector. While there he was
persuaded by a salesman to.invest ten
cents of his spending money .in a
stamp catalogae. When he got back

buying the catalogue, the boy hid it
in an outbuilding, then began his
quest for stamps of value. He fouud
several among his father's letters.
In those days, stamp collectors
were notnumerous, neither was it
easy to find professional collectors
who were willing to pay. Mr. Russell
had to ride eight miles over country
roads to land anyone who even would
talk stamp collecting to him without
tapping his forehead. The novice's
first attempt as a stamp buyer almost
ruined his financial standing. He was
sold -a group of stamps which, under
the eye of a specialist, proved to be
reprints.
His collection to -day is one of the
most complete and valuable itt
America. •

was certainly not of her weight.
She seemed to have no weight at

whiteness of her face.
