water is pumped from wells and then

water is pumped from wells and then
evaporated. About thirty miles from
Dandy in San Bernardino county is a
residuary deposit of salt on the bed of
a dry lake, where thin layers of sand and
clay are interstratified with the salt bed.
The salt is quarred and hauled on
trucks or wagons across the desert to
Dandy and there shipped. 1t Is used in
silver mills and the best grade is re-
fined for table USE Considerable salt is
also made in San Diego county, where
it brings better price than that made
further north In Colusa county also
a small amount is made. There was for
merly some production in Shasta county,
but none is made there now. Alameda
county makes about four-fift of the
annual salt product of the state. Last
year most of the producers did not get
much over SO per ton for their output,
though the better grades, of course,
brought higher prices.-San Francisco
Examiner.

The speaker will hardly go down to
posterity as a great American states
man. He has originated nothing; there
is no great question germane to the
home or foreign policy of the country
which he can be said to have mastered.
His ignorance of economic subjects is so
profound that he regards Dingley's eta
tistical crudities as the quintessence Of
WISDOM New York Times.

Nansen is said to have given great Of
fense to the Young Norway party, to
which he was supposed to be devoted,
by going to Stockholm to lecture before
the prince and the Swedish ministers
and assuring them that he bore cordial
greetings from the people of Norway
Not content with that, he actually called
for the Swedish national hymn after
dinner. The result was this piece of ad-
vice addressed to Nansen by a Norwe-
gian Separatist paper: "Go back to the
north pole, for there is nothing more for
you to do in Nodway."

The honor of being the first man to
actually discover the antarctic continent
probably belongs to Capt. James Cook,
who in the year 1772 sighted the great
ice barrier which formed the seaward
boundary of Antarctica. In 1919 William
Smith, in the brig William, discovered
the archipelago of the South Shetlands,
south of Cape Horn. Powell, the dis
coverer of the South Orkneys, visited
the volcanic island Bridgman ill 1882,
and found it to be 200 feet high.
