A. Cagniacci, C. PARENT, F. Boritano, P.

were in keeping with the occasion, and
a quiet, enjoyable time was had by all
present.
The members of the company showed
themselves to be proficient in their
drill, and were literally applauded for
their efforts. T. Caffaro and G. De-
lushi, who formed the Reception Com

AMERICAN TEA CULTURE.
Highest Grades of the Plant Are Cut
tivnted in the United States.

!
tivnted in the United States.
Most people will be surprised to learn
that tea growing is a successful indus
try in this country, and that the high
est prices are being paid for the Amer
lean product of this popular beverage.
Secretary Wilson, of the department
of agriculture, lately requested William
Saunders, the veteran horticulturist of
his department, to visit the tea farm OF
Charles w. Shepard at Summerville, S.
c., and report upon what he should see
there. Seventeen years ago Mr.. Saun-
ders prepared an article on Tea Cul-
ture as Probable American Industry,
which was mainly intended to answer
requests coming from all parts of the
country as to the status OF tea culture
in the United States. For 20 years
previous tea plants had been annually
distributed in varied quantities, the
only purpose at that time being to en-
courage the culture OF tea plants for
domestic purposes in a limited way.
The cost of labor and deficiency of rain
fall were the main obstacles in the way
Of making tea culture successful com
mercially.
The tea farm visited by MIR. Saunders
is gently undulating and the soil is
mainly a sandy loam. and he found hat
farm to be under perfect cultivation.
The labor question had been settled by
Dir, Shepard by building a schooihouss
on the farm, inviting the people Of the
surrounding country to send their
children there for instruction, and ir
the intervals Of the school term he en-
ploys the scholars, under pay, to pick
tea. Dr.. Shepard has procured tea
plants from all quarters of the globe,
has experimental extensively with
them and has been so greatly encour-
aged that he declared that were he 20
years younger he would plant so acres
as rapidly as he could procure the
plants. His experiments with the tea
plant have been so thorough and sue
cessful that some arrangement should
be made whereby he could impart his
knowledge to others, and for this pur-
pose he advises the establishment of
school where the veteran tea grower
could instruct young men so that they
might undertake the work of develop
ing the tea industry in this country
The tea from Dr. Shepard's farm sells
for one dollar per pound, is of high
quality, and it is believed that his sue
cess establishes the fact that tea can be
grown in this country so as to be com
mercially successful. Washington

MAKE THEMSELVES USEFUL.
Dogs Perform Many Services for the
Miners in Frozen Alaska.


Miners in Frozen Alaska.
Dogs have suddenly become more
valuable than horses in this section of
the northwest. This state of affairs
results from the great and growing de-
maud for dogs to be used in hauling
sledges in the Yukon country, Alaska.
While thousands of horses for which
their owners cannot get three dollars
head are roaming over the plains of
eastern Washington and Oregon, good
sized dogs are bringing from SIS to $50
each in the local market. AT Juneau
their value is double what it is here,
and on the Yukon river good dog
brings from 500 to $3.50. To the Yukon
miner the dog has become what the
reindeer is to the Laplander and the
pony to the cowboys of Texas and
Mexico-a beast of service and most
valuable one.
Every steamer sailing for Alaska for
three months past has borne north
ward several dozen dogs destined for
service in front of heavily laden.
sledges. They are taken by boat to
Dyea, at the head of salt water naviga-
ton, and there put into harness to assist
in hauling outfits and supplies over the
Chilkoot pass and down the farther
slope to the series of fresh water lakes
forming the headwaters of the Yukon's
tributaries. Up to May, when the ice
breaks up, dog teams slide over the
smooth surface of the lakes with sur
pr;sing rapidity, considering the loads
they haul. There are portages to be
made around dangerous rapids, and
here againtheir services are invaluable.
Arriving at the central parts, such as
Forty Mile or Circle City. both men and
dogs are put into harness again for the
trip to the diggings.
The sledge dogs are too valuable not
to be we'll taken care of where that is
possible. Their owners first thought
in this respect is to obtain plenty of
food for them. Their food consists
principally of fish, usually salmon,
caught in the Yukon river by the ma
tives. An ordinary dog will eat daily
two pounds of dried salmon, which
equals seven pounds of fresh fish At
Forty Mile last winter dried salmon
sold at from 20 to so cents pound, and
bacon that was fit only for dogs to eat
sold for 371a cents a pound. In some of
the larger camps on the Yukon, dog
boarding houses have been established.
where the animals are properly cared
for ait from six to fifteen dollars a
month, according to the season and the
price of dog food-Forest and Stream.

They'd Rather Sit with Men,

a noticeable habit of. women on
railway trains is that of preferring to
sit beside strange man rather than
to take a vacant seat beside a strange
woman. The window seats the whole

earlier comers, the belated woman or
girl can be counted upon to pass by
seat after seat until she reaches one

man. 1t would seem natural for a
woman of refinement to find such close
proximity to stranger of the op-

experience, in fact, to be avoided, if at
all possible. Judging, however, by the
conduct of the majority of the hex, this
is not point on which women are SEN
