Trees In New Zealand.

The kauri is the monarch of the New
Zealand forest, an indigenous pine,
growing to enormous height, frequently
80 feet, before it sends out a Dough,
while its average diameter is from eight
to nine feet. 1t is said to be 800 years
in reaching maturity. There is no un-
derbrush in a kauri forest, the prince Of
trees permitting no rival within his do
main. The totara is another species of
pine, which, however, has none of the
characteristics Of the coniferm Of other
countries, either in habit or in appear
ance.
The most singular of all is the rata,
a peculiar tree with somewhat the ma
ture of a parasite. If it springs up zeal
a rimu pine, it winds about it like a
huge vine, it's tightening coils gradual
ly crushing the life out of the unfortu-
nate pine. When it reaches the top, it
sends out branches and stands a hollow
she'll, its coils knit closely together by
a dense network Of fibers, which appear
in the last stage Of it's growth. It has a
like affinity for its W species, and a
second rata springing up beside one Of
earlier growth will absorb and destroy
it as it destroys the rimu. If, however,
neither rimu nor rata is within reach,
it grows up a respectable and we'll be-
haved tree, attaining a height of from
so to so feet, and is used for masts in
shipbuilding. -.Chautauquan.

NORTH POLE MYSTERIES.

The return Of an Arctic explorer
clears up many mysteries, who says
that much new land was discovered in
Weddell Sea, and open water was seen
far to the south. This shows that the
great wall of ice reported by early ex-
plorers was a myth. Arctic explorers
are not the only ones who meet with
receptions. Many people with indiges-
tion and dyspepsia have been deceived
so many times that they believe there is
no cure. They can be cured though hun
dreds of medicines have failed. Take
the only reliable medicine, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which also cures con-
%stipation, nervousness, sleeplessness
and liver and kidney disorders. Do not
accept a substitute. See that a private

IRRIGATION IN THE FAR EAST.
The Primitive Methods Which Modern
Science SnccAadad.


The following strong word-painting
of the primitive methods of irrigation
still employed in the land Of Northern
Syria, the land Of the Euphrates, the
Orentes and the Tigris, cannot but i'm
press itself on the successful American
irrigator who sees the forces of nature
subdued and controlled for his benefit
through modern engineering ingenuity.
From the dawn Of human ingenu-
ity," says Raghib Raft, in the Irrigation
Age, "for centuries unnumbered, wood
en- water wheels of fearful form and
cumbrous weight, huge monsters which
gave ~grudgingly, Were used along the
river banks, requiring high dams and
constant repairs-much attention for
meager results. With what success? In
winter "a heavy, sullen, grooming revo-
luton, turning at the will Of the capri
cious currents, and at a time when wa
ter, in the form of rain, is showered
down, thus reducing their value as irri-
cation machines. In summer, when the
heats were come, the dry earth cracked
and crying, they would stand hooking
~ motionless in their sluggish currents,
seeming to ridicule the puny efforts of
primitive man.

Pumping for Irrigation.

Although great mountain storage res
ervoirs must be the ultimate solution Of
western development, there is perhaps
an indefinite fight ahead to convince the
people at large of the necessity for and
justice Of rational aid in their construc-
tion. In the meantime men are looking
around for independent methods Of wa
tering their orchards and crops in a
small way, with the result that the
yearly Increase OF irrigation pumping
outfits is rapid. Many sections Of the
west are underlaid with stores Of water,
in most Of which this water. can be
tapped, and through effective pumping
systems brought to the surface and dis
tributed for the growing Of crops. The
geological survey finds that although
the aggregate area of such irrigation is
comparatively small, there are vet
thousands OF these independent plants
throughout the west. Pumps and wind
mills are being constantly improved,
and the development along these lines
In the past few years has been very in
teresting and rapid.

l suffered with diarrhoea for a long
time, and thought I was past being
cured. I had spent much time and
money and suffered so much misery
that I had almost decided to give up all
hopes of recovery and await the result,
but noticing the advertisement of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy and also some testimo-
malls stating how some wonderful cures
had been wrought by this remedy, I de-
cided to try it. After taking a few doses

The Moral is Plain,

The SANITY Man finally accosted the
Other Man.
How long have you been addicted to
the tobacco habit? the SANITY Man
demanded, with the brusquerie beftting
his sense of rectitude.
FortySsix years, answered the Other
Man, hHmbly.
Do you see that twenty story building
yonder? asked the SANITY Man.
Yes, sir, the Other Man replied. If l
had saved the money l have spent for
tobacco, I might own that building,
merely, or two or three like it, at most.
But fortunately l learned to use tobacco,
so that now l have but to stick a ten
cent perfecto in my face and l own the
earth!

AROUND ELlzABETHT0WN.
What Some Of the Mines There Are
Showing.

The custom mill is busy at Elizabeth
town and aiding mine owners to work
their property. Tom Pulliam is opening
his big vein on the James lease at Bal
dy. The richness is found in the slate
interstices and in a red ore so desirable
in this mining field. The vein of paw
ore is from 6 to 10 feet.
The Paragon mine, adjoining the
Black Horse property, has been bonded
to W. C. Scott, who has formed a CO.
operative development mpa to ex-
tract the ores and have them treated.
Some of the best miners in the district
have associated themselves with this
gentleman in the opening of this claim.
Mr.. Scott is acknowledged by the min
ing fraternity of this whole section to
be authority on both mines and milling
operation and construction, and is con-
sulting engineer for the most intelligent
and progressive operators in this Sec
ton.
The Edison mill at Midnight is doing
effective work under the
OF Mr.. Pennock, and the weekly clean
ups are most satisfactory to all con-
cerned.
b. Maddox, Of La Belle, the owner
and proprietor of the Rome hotel in that
mining camp, is negotiating with east
ern capitalists for the floating Of a
company to develop his Colorado tun-
mel proposition. The tunnel is in a cou-
pie hundred feet and directed toward
the four claims on the Nountain above,
winch have ore bodies uncovered and
are certain producers, soon as the veins
are cut below.
David Baumert, formerly of Long
mont, Is engaged in his old occupation
OF placer mining. His successful opera
lions on Comanche creek and now on
Grouse gulch are a source of gratifica-
tion to his many friends.
G. j. Dold, superintendent and gener-
al manager Of the Montezuma Gold
Mining Company, reports his ASSAY de-
partment crowded with work. The
quartz miners are testing and sampling
ores as never before in the history
OF mining about Eizabethtown, and
truly an era of business prosperity
seems about to dawn in the particular
line of mining and milling.
On the "6S" a double shift of men have
been pushing a cross-cut to explore a
quartzite dixie which was thought to be
the extension Of the Red Bandana by
the parties who have the bond and
lease.
Ed Slatterly, of Badly, has located the
Copper Maid, and his good Judgment
was proved when Mr.. G. J. Dold, the
assayer, found in his rock 500 gold and
a large per cent of copper.
Morris & Thompson, merchants at
Red River, have been negotiating with
Mr.. Elspass, the inventor of the roller
mill of that name, for a plant to be
erected at Red River City. The vast
quantity of ore at that point awaiting
treatment fully justifies the order.
