plant System OmciaIs Believes the
shops VIII stay Here.
"It Is nothing more than the talk we
have been hearing for the last ten years"
said an official of the Plant System yes
terday. discussing the effort that is afoot
IN induce the removal of the shops from
Savannah to Waycross. II know 1t to be
a fact that the officials of the system have
never given the matter a moments con-
sideration and 1 believe they would not
think of moving the shops. l am sure all
are well pleased with Savannah and that
they see no reason why the shops should
be moved from here.
of would, Of course, be good thing
for Wavcross If it could get the shops,
lint there is no reason why they should
ba moved. There are shops at different
places along the system. For instance,
there are shops at High Springs as ex-
torsive as these at Savannah. Waycross
nos sbops already and work of as i'm
,,ortant a character is done there as here.
There are no car works there and there
are not SO many men employed. The
storekeepers of the place would like to see
tie shops moved to Waycross and the
ratlroad men there would also be pleased
20 have such a considerable addition made
to their number.
.XVavcross has always been looked upon
az a sort of railroad town. There are more
railroad people than people of other. bush
nesses and professions. They think ii
natural that the road should establish its
,,oet important shops there, but We find
the present arrangement satisfactory. As
II is the shops located at different points
along the system are kept running ON full
time and have all they can do to make
repairs and build new stock. believe the
talk win mean no more than a sort oil
boom and advertisement for Waycross.

They We're beaten off to be replaced by

out what they were up to-, but by and
by we discovered that their objective
point was thieket ON our front center.
Then 1t was easy to conclude that some
warrior Of prominence was in that
thicset, dead or wounded, and that the
object was to carry him off.
"Our captain gave orders to cease fir

The author of "Wild Flowers of
California" gives an entertaining ac-
count of how the Indians prepare for
food a plant that is commonly called
Indian lettuce. 1t will be recalled that
formic acid takes its name from the
red ant, and that acid was first OBJ
tanned from the insect.<
The Placer county Indians grcedily
cat the succulcnt leaves and stems Of
their lettuce" Their way Of prepar-
ing the plant for food is novel. Gath
ering the leaves, they lay these about
the entrances to the nests of certain
large red ants. The ants, swarming
out, run all over the plants. After Il
time the Indians shake the ants off
the leaves, satisfied that the lettuce
now has a pleasant sour taste, cquhling
