Trees as Historians.

It has been found that the rings Of
growth visible in the trunk OF trees
have a far more interesting story to
tell than has usually been supposed.
Everybody knows that they indicate
the number of years that the. tree has
lived, but J. Keuchler, of Texas, has
recently made experiments and obser-
yations which seem to show that trees
carry in their trunks record OF the
weather conditions that have prevailed
during the successive years OF their
growth. ,oo
Several trees, each more than 13O
years old, were felled, and the order
and relative width Of the rings OF
growth in their trunks were found to
agree exactly.
This fact showed that all the trees
had experienced the same stimulation
in certain years and the same retarda-
tion in other years. Assuming that
the most rapid growth had occurred in
wet years, and the least rapid in dry
years, it was concluded that out OF the
l3O years covered by the life of the
trees sixty had been very wet, six ex-
tremely wet, eighteen wet, seventeen
average as to The supply Of moisture,
nineteen dry, eight very dry and SIX
extremely dry.
But when the records Of rainfall,
running back as far as 1910, were con-
suited, it was found that they did not
all agree with the record of the trees.
Still it could not be denied that the
rings in the trunks told true story Of
the weather influences which had at
fected the trees in successive years.
The conclusion was therefore reach
ed that the record Of the rings con-
tained more than mere index of the
annual rainfall that it showed what
the character of the seasons had been
as to sunshine, temperature, evapora-
tion, regularity or irregularity of the
supply Of moisture, and the like; in
short, that the trees contained, indeli-
bly, imprinted in their trunks, more
than 100 years Of natures history, a
history which we might completely
decipher if we could but look upon the
face of nature from trees point OF

A Protection Against Dogs,

A Saratoga county clergyman has
discovered q method Of protection
against the attacks Of strange dogs.
He was walking a street one day when a
large and apparently ferocious canine
came toward him growing and show
ing his teeth and otherwise giving
evidence Of disposition to do him
bodily harm. All attempts to drive
the animal away proved futile. AT
last happy idea struck the reverend
gentleman and he proceeded to put it
into execution. He carried an UNI
brclla, which he opened suddenly in
the face of the dog. The belligerent
attitude Of the dog changed instantly
and, putting his tail between his legs
he skunk away. Whenever after
that the clergyman was compelled to
pass that spot and the dog was in ev-
idence, the latter kept at safe dis
tance and never even 80 much as
barked or growled at the passerby.
The clergyman has tried the expert
ment with many other dogs since that
time and he reports that it has never
failed to put the animals to flight, no
matter how ugly they appear to be.
The umbrella defense is certainly
worth remembering.-Alban E1-

The. Successful Advertiser !
Is the man who writes something the

Is the man who writes something the
people will read, and reading, believe. In
this age of education and enlightenment,
when men read and think for themselves,
all that stuff about "selling goods cheaper
than your competitors buy them," being
the "only competent dealers in the line,"
"handling better stuff than anybody
else," sc, is mere clap'trap, and subjects
the writer and the firm back of it to the
contempt of all right-thinking people. The
man who has something to offer, and then
tells the folks about in plain, business
way, is the man who "gets there" and
getting there, stands.
Lots of people handle Paint. Some
handle one kind, some another, but they
all realize, if they have any business sense
at all. that in order to make that business
a permanent success it is absolutely neces-
sary to give the people the very BEST ma
terial. This we have tried to do, and at q
price that puts it in the reach Of all.
In this connection we call attention to
the fact that crops are about laid by, time
is plentiful, and little paint not only
freshens and beauties, but improves WON
derfully the sanitary condition of the
premises. If your house is all right may
be the fence needs coat. A little Paint
would keep that old buggy from falling
down, ard the wagon might last year or
two longer by spending seventy.five cents
or dollar in Paint on it.
Remember this, the longer you put it
off the more it takes and the less good it
does. Remember another thing, 1t costs
Just as much, and takes just as much time,
to have cheap paint put on as it does good
Paint. Always buy the best, even If you
pay more for it.

IrrIgatIng Plants!

Very few people realize what vast
engineering and construction prob
lens are being solved out West in
what few years ago was termed the
Great American Desert region. The
same desert region is Of remarkable
fertility when water is supplied by
irrigation plants. The Swcetwater
dam, in Southern California, is the
pride Of it's builders and is worth
many millions to the lands it renders
fertile. In Arizona an immense canal
is being built, which will utilize a
part of the surplus waters of Colora-
do and irrigate 100000 acres of land.
In New Mexico, in Eddy County, is
the second largest irrigating plant in
the United States. To secure an
abundance of water at all times two
immense reservoirs were constructed
capable of storing 100000 cubic feet
of water.
Some idea of the size of these arti-
fetal lakes may be had when it is
mentioned that one of them is thir-
teen miles long by four miles wide.
The water from these reservoirs is
conducted through some 1900 miles
of canals and bitches and irrigates or
will irrigate 25O,OOO acres Of land,
mostly fruit and garden land. Imagine
a water works plant with a reservoir
100000 feet square and having 1900
miles of mains. 1t took three years
to build this plant. Yet others as
great or greater are projected and will
be constructed. The future effect Of
all this vast labor and skill is not
easy to predict. In many places they
have surely made the desert bloom
and turned poverty into wealth.

posse of 200 deputies in Chicago is really
cross between the Gatling gun and the
French mitrailleuse. 1t may be defined
as a repeating shotgun, but is the most
powerful hand arm ever loaded with
powder and shot. The weapon is of lar
ger bore than the average army rifle, but
weighs less. It's magazine has room
for six twelve-calibre cartridges. Each
cartridge contains three and half drams
of powder and twelve buckshot. Be-
tween the shot and the powder are two
one eight-inch compressed paper wads.
The shell Of the cartridge is of paper
backed by rim of brass. The six car
tridges may be fired in half as many Sec
onds, thus throwing seventy-two scat
tering bullets, any of which would in
flict serious wound at eighty yards dis
tance. The magazine may be reloaded
easily within half minute. It is calcu-
lated that with the shot Of each cartridge
scattering as it is discharged, the gun, in
the hands of fairly accurate shot,
