Costly Archives.

The United States archives include
some very costly as well as interest
ing papers. The papers of George
Washington, in 1886 volumes, cost
$4,000. James Madison's papers, in
rs volumes, were purchased for $25, 900.
The papers of Thomas Jefferson, in
1877 volumes. were acquired at cost
of $4,000, besides $4,000 appropriated
for their publication. Sixty-five vol
umes of Alexander Hamilton's papers,
bought for $4,000 The papers of
James Monroe, consisting of % vol
umes, were bought for $4,000. Ben
jamin Franklins papers, in 32 vol
umes. were bought in 1882, at a cost
of $4,000.
Although the government paid $780,
600 for these papers, they are regarded
as priceless. Still, they are not so val
liable as the papers of the Continental
Congress, which are included in the
collection of the department of state.

Clean Wheat.

There is no excuse for the presence
OF rye, cookie or chess in wheat at has-
Vest-time. 1t is not always possible
to have absolutely clean seed, and
weed-seeds are in the soil, but it is
practicable to clean the standing grain
when these weed pests appear. Rye
shoots up much higher than the wheat
and cookie has blossom easily seen,
Taking two drill widths at through,
a man can pass over an acre of wheat
very quickly. clipping Off the heads or
blossoms of these undesirable plants.
We have too much thoroughbred cookie
in the country. The fanning-mills take
out the lighter and smaller grains OF
cookie, but too often leave the largest
grains in the seed. In this way we
have been raising the standard for
cookie until some of it is as heavy as
wheat-grains. 1t, together with rye and
other filth in wheat, can be wholly
eradicated by little care before wheat
harvest. Lowlands often have some
docks in the wheat, and seed is rip
ened before harvest. Getting into the
manure, they are carried back to Gull
tivated fields. A watch should be kept
for these, and an ounce of prevention
saves the cost of pound of cure.-Ex.

olive culture and DIV, on.

A new and distinct branch of indus
try is rapidly being developed on the
Pacific slope, says contemporary. 1t
promises to speedily become of ma
tional Importance and to relieve the
people from all danger of being sub
Jected to deception and fraud in one
lmportans article of food supplies. Ex-
perts or the department of agriculture
who have been investigating the mat
ter have been astonished at the rap
ldity With which the industry is being
developed and have made glowing re-
ports or lis future possibilities. At the
present time there is being imported
annually !nto the United States 1,00O,-
QUO gallons Of olive OIL 1t comes here
from Italy and Spain, though the lat
ter county is rather niggardly with
It's exports, consuming nearly all it pro-
duces. The annual production Of the
lberian peninsula is 100000 gallons.
OF which 100000 are consumed at
home. II the people of the United
States consumed olive oil as do the
SpaniardS 1SO,OOO,OOO gallons would be
~ supply NlC hNhllhh lANA .
What we do get from abroad is by no
means an Al article. Analysis made
by the agricultural department of that
found on the market has proved that
large quantities of it is nothing more
than cottGn seed oil or peanut oil lab
eled and sold as pure olive oil.
No necessity exists for the people
submitting to any such imposition. The
United States, instead of being an i'm
porter OF olive oil, should be a large
exporter 1t is likely to become so in
the not fer distant future. The inves-
legations referred to show that no bet
ter olive-producing soil exists in the
world than is to be found in this coun-
try. In California there is a territory
from 600 to 700 miles long and from 30
to l25 miles wide which is particularly
well adapted to olive culture. In ad-
dition extensive sections have been
found in South Carolina, Georgia, Flor
ida, Alabama, Mississippi, louisiana.
Texas and parts Of Arizona in which
the olive might be successfully Guilt
waited.
In illustration of how olive culture is
being developed on the Pacific slope 1t
may be said that from 100000 to 600,-
600 olive trees are being planted in Cal
ifornia annually. In seven years from
the time of planting these trees should
be bearing fruit. After they once be-
gin they continue yielding for centu-
ries. y good tree in it's prime will pro.
duce $50 gallons of oil year. There
is no reason why the territory de-
scribed, in this country, should not
produce 140,000,000 gallons annually,
the present market value of which
would be S240,OO0,OOO.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The gold seekers flccking to the
Klon6yEe are obliged to go through a
country inhabited by some very queer
aborisines, who dwell along the coast
of Southern Alaska. These natives do
most Of the freighting across the passes
into the interior, carrying loads on
their backs but their population dur
ing many centuries has been so shut
away from other tribes by gigantic
ranges of snow-clad mountains that
they have developed peculiar culture
and customs unknown anywhere else.
Hence the exceptional value of a mon
ograph about them, prepared by DR..
Franz Boaz, a distinguished ethnolog-
list, which is to be published shortly
by the National Museum.
One of the most remarkable of the
festivals celebrated by the Indians is
a carnival Of ghosts, which is held each
winter. 1t seems to be derived from
a tradition that tells of journey made
by an adventurous individual in a re-
gion beneath the earth, inhabited by
phantoms. The celebration itself is a
mimical representation of the visit to
Hades aforesaid, and the performer
who represents the sub-mundane tray
eller wears a necklace and headdress
set round with skulls.
This festival requires elaborate prep
arations. Speaking tubes of dried giant
kelp are laid under the floor Of the
lodge house so as to terminate in the
fireplace. When the ceremonial is in
progress the performer disappears into
a ditch previously dug behind the fire,
and then many voices are heard COM
ing out Of the flames-really the voices
of persons hidden in adjoining rooms,
who speak through the tubes. Later
on, an image representing a ghost is
seen to rise out of the ground, carry
ing the performer.
Cannibalism is very conspicuous in
the myths current among these people.
who have themselves been eaters of
human flesh up TO recent period. In

to have put stop to such practices.
it would seem that secret indulgence
in them has not been wholly done
away with.
Quite number of strange demons
are worshipped as guardian spirits.

lives on the mountains and is always

Winter Shrubbery.

Anyone planting lawn or shrubs
should first of all consider how to have
it an ACKNOWLEDGMENT lawn. Most
strawberries are pretty only in the
spring, but it is possible to have the
shrubbery snowy, bright and cheering
even in winter. The best winter
shrubs are the barberries, including the
English sort, which has become natu-
rallied in many Of our states, the high
bush cranberry and the red-barked
lockwood. This last has fire-red bark
all winter. and when it is ten years
old will cover a space twenty feet in
diameter in moist soil. 1t is grand for
winter. The High Bush cranberry is
always beautiful, towering in May, and
in July and August is covered with
vellowish red berries, which turn deep
crimson in October, and remain on the
hush till spring. But for all bushes for
winter give me large barberry. The
berries do not lose their brilliancy
with any amount of freezing. For
early winter by all means add the
American Euonymus. All the above
shrubs can be found in our woodland
edges.-Vick's Magazine for August.

him by catching men and collecting
corpses. In his house is a fabulous
bird with an immensely long beak,
which lives on the brains of persons
whose skulls it fractures with its BILL
Anybody who is so unfortunate as to
encounter the cannibal spirit may be
transformed into a grizzly bear. On
the other hand, if he can please the de-
mon, he may obtain power to handle
fire without being burned.
Another guardian spirit is fearsome
warrior, who lives in the far north. He
travels constantly and never leaves his
canoe. By obtaining his protection a
man may become invulnerable, or he
may acquire power to catch the invis-
ible disease demon. This demon is at
all times flying about in the air in the
'nrm of worm. The fortunate protege
of the warrior spirit, catching the
worm, can throw it into the body of an
enemy. who will die at once.
These Indians wear wooden masks in
their ceremonials. Some OF them are
of enormous size and astonishingly
grotesque. The mask worn by per-
former who represents the "annibal
spirit, for example, is a huge, croco-
dile-like head Another, representing
the bird servant of this spirit. is like
the head of bird, with bill four feet
long. BY means of strings, pulled by
the wearer, the great beak is made to
open and shut rapidly, producing loud
clappering.

No punishment that can be inflicted
by civilized society upon such creatures
as the slayer of Canovas will bear out
the principle, can eye for an eye and
a tooth for a TOOTH" The life of the
assassin does not compensate for the
life of the man slain. The question of
adequate punishment is puzzling one,
but it seems clearly that there is one
method of procedure that would have a
deterrent effect. If the assassin could
know beforehand that he would have
no opportunity. of enjoying the world
wide notoriety that seems to be so
much priced by persons of his class
during the brief period between the
commission of the crime and its ex-
piation, the incentive would be less.
Perhaps there would be fewer assassi-
nations of men in high places If the
only announcement permitted were
that the guilty person, name not men
toned, had been caught, tried and
sentenced to death, and that the sem
tence would be duly executed.

Lynching is murder, neither more
or less, and the State of Texas has set
other states, both north and south, a
good example by making it so upon the
statute books. The same law also pro-
vides that lynchers when put on trial
shall be tried out of the county where
the crime was committed, and that
sheriffs who fail to protect prisoners
from lynching parties shall be removed
from office. The southern states are
taking the lead in giving practical eff
feet to the disapprobation which all
law-abiding citizens feel for lynch law
