slight burning or smarting sensation weak ening the

because Of the curious and strange
sights seen there. The valley is about
forty miles long and thirty miles wide.
Not a soul lives within Its territory.
Mountains capped with snow all the
year surround the valley. init the eye
sees lakes, green trees, bubling springs
and even lilies growing In the marshes.
Contrast these with the ruggid noun
tains that surround you, and the pic

beauty. You imagine that no paradise
ethereal or heavenly could surpass 1t.
In the distance there are beautiful
lakes, with lovers padding softly over
the calm waters; Fantastic craft and
beautiful water nymphs show them
selves. Weird and somber figures
gleam at you from all directions and
dimly outlined forms of all colors,
shapes and sizes may be seen.
occasionally there is storm in the
valley. Forked lightning leaps from
the mountain tops and in its light are
strange animals, different from any
you have ever heard about before.

young fellow, with sober face and de.
lberate manner. We were standing near
each other ON the station platform waiting
for down town train. The solemn young
man was smoking cigarette, not an ex-
pensive, fat, ten cent, imported cigarette
title on it, printed in gold, but an ordinary,
truthful, domestic cigarette, of which you
can buy ten for five cents. 1t was about
half smoked up. The train came rumbling
along. The solemn young man did not
throw his cigarette away, as / did. Instead
of tossing it one side he knocked the ashes
off carefully, pulled out a little glass bot

man why he did it. Very deliberately he
answered:
10 save the cigarette"
"But does it pay for the bother and is
the cigarette fit to smoke sgainp"
"Oh, yes; think so. You see, can take
the cigarette out very easily" and he pulled
the phial FROM his pocket and proved his
assertion. Now there is half of ciga-
rette. I might just as well smoke that as
half of another one. At least twice day,
and usually three or four times, have
about half smoked my cigarette when the
train comes. So invented this method of
saving the other half of the cigarette. By
it I save about thousand cigarettes a

crop this year was not up to the
average. The amount shipped this
year was 124 cars, or about 2,lOS tons.
The kraut factory consumed about 900
tons, making total of 3,0OS tons.
The price has averaged about $ls atom,
making the total value $99,lO4. The
amount handled by small shippers con-
'sumed by growers and retailed from
local stores will probably bring the
total value up to about $45,0OO. The
factory has turned out some fifty car
