OUR NATION THE OLDEST.

1t Was the Fererunner of All Popular
Forms of Government.
Americans are too often reminded by
older nations that they are young ma
ton, and, therefore, inexperienced and
more liable to crude laundering than
the ancient dynasties of Europe. Young
we are. with youthful vigor and ire
pressible vitality. If such were the
meaning our critics intended, facts in
our history would abundantly support
them.
But in very real and unobserved
sense are we the oldest nation in the
world to-day, and the stars and stripes
is the forerunner of all those popular
forms of government now extant
When the silken folds of our flag first
foated TO the breeze and were baptized
IN blood and consecrated with imper-
ishable honor. what did they signify?
That the hitherto stifed voice of the
people demanded to be heard, respected
and obeyed.
That that voice proclaimed doctrines
of human right and afreedom hitherto
Utopian dream. which those solitary
ones dreamt it had scarcely dared to
utter
And. further. the assertions il pro-
claimed it did maintain against
mighty foe, which was destined for de-
feat.
To-day the recorder of these events
looks hack with awed wonder to see
the struggle our fathers commenced
spread and grow. until il had reached
the topping thrones of these very IA
tons which criticise US and which owe
their germinal liberties 70 the proclsma-
ton of independence and the war of the
revolution Our banner is still in the
vanguard: the government 80 aus

BIG FORESTS IN ARIZONA.
Heavy Timber Growths Not Utilized q
Yet for Lack of Transpor tation.

Heavy Timber Growths Not Utilized rs
Yet for Lack of Transpor tation-
Few people seem to realize-at least
those who live outside the territory,
and good many who are here, says
the Phoenix Herald-that Arizona
has heavy forests which will ultimate
" give us native lumber. The question
heretofore, and existing to consider
able extent at the present time, has
been that of transportation To be
sure, the short road at Flagstaff has
made it possible for the northern por-
ton of the territory to have cheaper
lumber to build with, but the southern
portion has had to depend on California
or Oregon for its supply.
This condition of things must event.
ually change, and, in fact, the present
railroad projects will make quite a
difference. With the completion of the
north and south road we can have ma
tive building material shipped in at a
nominal cost. The road from Flag
staff to Phoenix, Yuma and on to San
Diego will make it still easier and
cheaper to get lumber into the southern
part of the territory.
The resources Of Arizonain this con-
nection are quite extensive-in fact,
enough so TO furnish building material
for home use for years TO come
Transportation is the only drawback.
and that is being rapidly settled The
forests of Arizona should and probably
will be thoroughly represented at the
worlds fair. This fact alone viii have
the effect of inducing people to come
here who now think we are entirely
destitute in this respect Arizona's
wood is not confined to mesquite wood
by any means, and the fact cannot be
too strongly put TO the people OF the

PHILOSOPHY OF THE GlzzARD.
How It Aids tho Ostrich to Display TX
traordinxry Digestive Ability.

traordinsry Digestive Ability.
A fowls gizzard, where SO many lost
ARTICLES turn up, is curious trap as well
las necessary vital organ of the fowl
diamonds, pearls, coin, buttons, tacks,
orange peel andoabout everything else,
save dynamite, have been found in the
igizzards of fowls. A study of the organ
is interesting. Experiments have DEM
lonstrated that what may be called the
gastric juice in fowls has not sufficient
power to dissolve their food without the
laid of the grinding action of the giz-
yard Before the food is prepared for
digestion, therefore, the grains must be
subjected to a triturating process, and
such as are not sufficiently bruised in
this manner, before passing into the
Igizzard, are there reduced to the proper
state by its natural action. The action
lof the gizzard is, in this respect, me-
,chanical, this organ serving as mill to
grind the feed to pieces, and then, by
means of its powerful muscles, pressing
lit gradually into the intestines IN the
form of pulp. The power of this organ
is said to be sufficient to pulverize hol-
time. and solid masses of the same sub
Stance in q few weeks. The rapidity of
this process seems to be proportionate
generally to the size of the bird. A
chicken, for example, breaks up such
Substances as are received into its stom-
ach less rapidly than the capon, while
goose performs the same operation
sooner than either. Needles and even
1ancets given to turkeys have been
broken in pieces and voided without
ANY apparent injury to the stomach.
The reason undoubtedly is that the
larger species of birds have thicker and
more powerful organs of digestion.
1t has long been the general opinion
that from some deficiency in the diges-
tive apparatus fowls are obliged to re-
sort to the use of stones and gravel in
order to enable them to dispose of the
food which they consume. Some have
supposed that the use of stones is to
sheathe the gizzard in order to fit it to
Break into smaller fragments the hard,
angular substances which might be
swallowed. They have also been con-
sidered to have medicinal effect
Others have imagined that they acted
as absorbents for undue quantities of
acid in the stomach, or as stimulants to
digestion, while it has ever been grave
by asserted that they contribute direct
" to nutrition. The Hartford Times
claims that repeated experiments, how
ever, have established that pebbles are
mot at all necessary to the trituration
of the hardest kinds of substances
which can be introduced into their
stonachs; and, of course, the usual food
of fowls can be bruised without their
aid. They do, however, serve u useful
auxiliary purpose. When put in motion
10y the muscles they are capable of pro-
ducing some effect upon the contents of
the stomach, thus assisting to grind
down the grain and separating its parts,
so that the digestive fluid or gastric
Juice comes more readily in contact
with il.
