Great Salt Lake.

A gentleman who has been lately
sailing ON the ''Dead Sea of America
thus describes it: ''Soon we were on
our way toward the hazy western
shore. AS we passed along the sea-
gulls circled around us or 1loated on
the water, their white plumago shining
in the sunlight Every now and then u
hawk-moth would fit by or alight on
the boat; dragon-hies would stop long
enough to gaze at us curiously and
then spin off toward the distant islands.
Occasionally 17-year-old locust would
hum past as if to mock at us for ever
daring to believe that this is the Dead
Sea of America AS the bow plowcd
through the water millions of small
diptera (fies) would rise from the
water where they were resting, and
cover the bow of the boat till quarts of
them could be collected. Wherever
we went we observed the same thing.
The water of the lake is their home,
and they are as much at home on
water as skipper is on an Eastern
pond. In some places where it is
calm these flies darken the water for
miles. Here (not on the beach) they
lay their eggs; here they hatch, and
the larvae live by the million till ready
for the pupa state, when they attach
themselves to the seaweed (foating ev-
erywhere in the water) and remain till
they emerge as perfect flies. The
Larvae doubtless prey upon the strange
little shrimps that live III the water.
There are infinite numbers of these, as
there is scarcely place in the lake
where bucket of water can be dipped
without taking up from twenty to 500
of them. 1t is strange that people
should call this dead sea, for
though the number of species does not
exceed ten or fifteen, there is no lake,
fresh or salt, in the world that contains
half as many living things rs Great

The circle was at once transformed
into a procession, with the large man
at its head. When it had streamed
over to Dearborn street it broke out in
an unruly storm of dissatisfied shouts.
''Where's the dawgs what was goin'

He pointed to small cart with one
horse and a canvas cover. On the
cover was painted In black letters:
"Nice Hot Taffy."
The bootblacks became interested,
particularly the small ones.
'.It's one O. them mission fellers"

Buying Up Black Walnut.

A number of English capitalists
have been buying up unusual quanti-
ties of black walnut in Ohio, Indiana,
and Iowa for some weeks past. The
shipments have attracted attention
among lumber dealers, and it is learned
that company of English capitalists,
indianapolis is cooperating, have been
for year or more quietly getting pos
session of all the black walnut timber
it has been possible to buy, and are
now shipping ii. to England. The wri-
ter's $ informant, who was a buyer for
those parties, says that the traveller on
the railroads throughout the walnut
belts will see at nearly every important
station portable steam sawmills at
work early and late ripping up black
walnut logs into planks of conven-
lent size for shipment.
The company has had buyers out all
through the States mentioned gather
ing up walnut trees wherever they could
be found. In many cases the farmers
have disposed of their trees at prices
far below their value, and it has only
been recently that they have become
aware of the scheme that is to take out
of the country the most of the remain
ing black walnut timber in it. The
consequence is that all the walnut the
company now buys costs it double the
price it was paying few months ago.
'.If the original forests of Ohio and
Indiana were now standing" says the
gentleman referred to, s'their valua-
tion would be many times more than
it is to-day under improvement. In
making their farms the settlers in these
States destroyed millions and millions
of dollars worth of black walnut, and
the destruction ceased not more than
twenty years ago. In searching for
timber visited more than one farm
where miles of fence were laid with
walnut rails, and the fences are not
old ones at that. This was in Bar
tholomew county, Ind, which, with
Jennings county, contains about all
the walnut forests there are in the
State. One old farmer told me that he
worked almost necessarily for eight
years to clear away the walnut trees
on his farm, and that he burned up
more than eighty acres of the finest
kind of timber. His farm, after thirty
years of cultivation, could not be sold
for more than $4,000. If it had its
walnut trees back it would be worth
more than 100000. This farmer
was an old settler in the State, and
only one among hundreds of others
who for more than fifty years girdled
and cut and burned the great forests
they found occupying the land The
English company will send to England
probably $5,O00,00O worth of walnut
that it has purchased from the farmers
at almost nominal prices.''
