"Piazzn.Life in summer. :"

We in America are coming to under
stand the importance of outdoor life.
The real poetry Of summer is well-nigh
lost unless one can come in contact
with trees, grass and flowers. True
country life bars none from this de-
light, but in villages and suburban
towns It's limit is fixed by the Space
devoted to the piazza.
The Importance Of this portion of the
house should be duly recognized be-
fore the plans are out of the architects
hands, and the three essentials for the
correct locatiOn-exposure, privacy and
outlook-be as carefully considered as
its construction and relation TO the
main building. In some instances even
the conventional rule for attaching the
piazza to that portion of the house that
faces the street should not be followed,
the interior plans being reversed in or
der to bring the livlng-rOoms and porch
at the rear
There is one opportunity afforded by
a broad piazza Of which we are slow to
take advantage We might take more
of our meals al fresco. One of the most
fascinating things about living abroad
is that in summer one may dine often
out Of doors. We should import the
custom into this country, for it is a
good one and then to the delights of
long evenings on our pazzas we should
have added that greater pleasure of sit
ting down to tea or luncheon with ma
ture herself-Woman's Home Compan-
inn
The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1901-07-12

must round Cape Horn and traverse
over 1900 miles Of ocean, BY the canal
route the distance is but 4, 100 miles, or
less than one-thlrd Of the present
length. A vessel taking a cargo from
St. Louis to San Francisco by way OF
Cape Horn would travel distance OF
l4,OOO miles, while by the canal route
il would be reduced to less than 5000
The city Of Louisville would be 5,532
miles from San Francisco, while at
present 1t Is 1882 by the water route
The manufacturers Of Alabama could
ship their products to a Gulf or a Mis-
Sissippi River port and have them de-
ivered at their destination In less than
lalf the time now required. The effect
which the canal would have in the ex-
banding commerce of this part of the
South Is incalculable. No nation on the
globe enjoys such a system of inland
water communication as the American
people possess in the Mississippi and
its tributarles.-D. Allen Wiley, In Chi.
cago Record Herald.
The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1901-07-12

mouths, yet all are located below the
junction of the Ohio and the main river.
The Ohio Valley is traversed also by a
Eetwork Of water courses, the largest
of which Is the Tennessee River, reach
ing portions of Kentucky, Tennessee
and Alabama, and of a depth to allow
steamers to 90 as far as the city of
Knoxville In Kentucky, the Green
Kentucky and Big Sandy Rivers are all
available feeders of the Ohio, while
penetrating the,coal and timber lands
Of West Virginia are the Kanawha and
several smaller tributaries. Joining the
east side Of the trunk are q number Of
branches extending as far north as the
State Of Wisconsin. The most import
ant is, perhaps, the Illinois River,
which, with the connection with the
Chicago Drainage Canal, may form a
ship channel between the great lakes
and the Mississippi.
The variety of traffic both foreign
and domestic, which originates in this
great territory represents nearly every
kind of manufactured and raw materi-
al which the United States produces
The agricultural staples of the South
such as cotton, tobacco, sugar cane and
rice, are noted for their quality and
quantity in the section reached by the
Mississippi and its tributaries, while its
water courses also penetrate the ex-
tensiye pineries of northwest Louisi-
ana. Much Of the mineral wealth of
Arkansas in marble, zinc and other re-
sources lies along the navigable
streams in this State. 1t is hardly nee
essary to refer to the products of Ten
nessee and Kentucky, which are ship
ped by water to st. Louis and other
markets by way of the Tennessee the
Cumberland and other streams. The
shipments of coal from western Penn
sylyania and West Virginia by way of
the Ohio River to the lower Mississippi
have reached as high as million tons
in year, large fleets of steamers and
barges being employed exclusively in
this business. A large proportion of the
cotton business of New ORLEANS is fur
nished by the water communication
which this city enjoys with the South
west. The industries in the group of
cities along the Ohio River in Indiana,
Illinois and Kentucky as well as in
Chattanooga, Nashville and Memphis,
have been fostered to a considerable
extent by the location Of their sites on
navigable water, giving the manufac-
turers the benefit of rail and water fa-
cilities
The effect of the construction of the
Nicaragua Canal upon the cities and
towns in this part of the country, even
with the present area of river naviga-
tion, will be to increase their import
ance. 1t brings the Mississippi, the
Ohio and the Missouri valleys from
5000 to 10000 miles nearer the great
market which will be opened to us in
South America, as well as the northern
Pacific coast. A vessel going from New
Orleans to San Francisco, for example,
