The Too.hpick Industry,

Philadelphia Record The toothplclf
Industry In this country Ii quite an ex-
tensive one. despite the somewhat UNI
certain social standing OF these little
articles, and is conducted almost entire
~ in the state OF Maine. although there
are a few factories In Pennsylvania,
Massachusetts, and New York. Frank
lin county, Maine, Is the chief center
primarily on account OF its forests Of
white birch. the standard wood for the
manufacture OF toothpicks. maple and
poplar being the only other woods en-
ployed for their manufacture in th.s
country. The method OF manufacture,
after the logs reach the factories, is to
strip off the bark and feed the logs into
automatic machines by which they are
cut up into venccTs or strips about as
thick as blotting paper. The veneers are
then fed into a machine composed OF
peculiarly shaped and rapidly revolving
knives, which turns out the finished
product, sEarpened at both ends. at the
rate Of tens OF thousands per hour.
These factories, in the course OF "A month
or two. turn out "A supply sufficient to
meet the demand Of a whole year, after
which they are shut down.
The best toothpicks made anywhere
in the world come from Portugal. They
are whitfield by hand from orange wood
splints by peasant girls. the only tool
used being an ordinary jackknife. These
picks are smooth as ivory and will not
break into splinters. and some of the
higher priced ones are ~ornamentcd with
hand carving. These are imported for
use at formal banquets and like occa-
sions. 1t Is said that the girls who make
them only earn 10 cents a day. Fine
t~oothplcks are also imported from
Japan, and these, too, are made 10y
hand, but from reeds.

SUFFERING FOR WATER

Chamberlain, Oct. 22.-Thc severe

Sioux lands much Inconvenience. Near

cept for an occasional water hole, is dry

are hundreds Of beaver, which have in
creased largely in numbers during the
past three years under the protection II
the state law hat prohibits trapping or
killing them. The Legislators that passed
the bin believed hat the beaver dams
would hold water throughout the year,
and therefore prove OF great benefit TO

Voirs have become mere beds Of mud

are usually underneath several feet Of
water, are now fully exposed. Every
