Greatest Food Producers.

Chestnut groves, with full grown trees, produce six times as much food per acre as any cereals, and Humboldt t estimates that a banana orchard will feed 25 human beings, where potato field of the same size would sup port two, and a wheat field only one. A time may come when the staples of human food will be chiefly derived from trees, thus increasing the life-sus- taining capacity of our planet more than fivefold, not to mention the sav- ing in drudgery, nor the beneficial climatic influences of tree plantations. No blowing, hoeing and moving, no worrying about winter food for hungry cattle, no deserts overspreading vast areas of tree-deprived territories What to Eat.

Insects That, Use Rubber.

When Para rubber trees are. tapped, after the gum has run into receptacles and stiffened, species of large black ant is accustomed to cut out pieces of the rubber and carry them away. Bees also find uses for india-rubber, and some species in South America actual ly cut the bark of trees that produce resinous substances in order to cause a flow of the sap. The gun is em- ployed by the bees as a ready-made wax for their nests.-Nature.

wATERToWN MILK DEALERS
 GETTING ADVANCED PRICES.

The Supply Not Equal to the Demand
 What c. B. Mattoon Says on the
 Advance in Price-Rev Father Shell
 to Celebrate Mass.
 Milk is scarce. Although the pas ture has been unusually good this fall, the quantity of milk produced from Watertown cans is hardly enough to supply the Waterbury demand This is accounted for by the fact that there are such good times in the city and plenty of work, which producing larger demand for milk.
 There has been some talk of the local dealers consolidating and agree ing upon one standard price, retail and wholesale. c. B. Mattoon, the largest milk dealer here was questioned in regard to the matter. He said: .'Yes, there was more or less talk some time ago in regard to all the milk dealers getting together and discontinuing any attempts to undersell. The price was advanced at the beginning of the pres ent month to six and seven centS- The price will remain in force all winter Some dealers have been selling milk wholesale at three and three and half cents per quart. There is posi- lively no money in the business at this price. Meal costs S30 ton. have almost 70 cows in my herd and average 800 quarts daily hence I would like to see a standard price maintafnd by all dealers
 Dennis Evans has severed his con- nectfon at the meat market in Samp- son street and secured a position at F. L. Hitchcock's hardware store
 The Rev John Shell recently or dained at Columbus. O., by Right Rev Bishop Moether, will celebrate mass at St Johns church tomorrow morning at Ills o'clock. Father Shell is former resident of Water bury and quite number of people from the city will attend.
 Dr and Mrs Munger have returned from vacation at Madison.

AMERICAN coNsULs.

Itmay be news to some to know that
nearly all The small consulates are filled
by foreigners citizens Of the. country in

In very many foreign ports Of even
considerable size the American con-

that the pay is not sufficient for an zap.
polntee from this country to- be able

tween this country and England in this
regard. England puts an Englishman
on guard in every little hole and corner
of the world, and profits by it.

he has no particular reason to exert him

The whole consular system of this
country should be revised and remodel

be greatly increased, sufficient salaries
should be. paid, and civil service sys-
tenn inaugurated 70, the purpose Of pro.
motion Of such consular agents who
prove by their services to be of especial
value.
At least the consular service should
be sufficiently increased and. organized
so that. every immigrant to. this country
should not be allowed to land until he
is able to show certificate Of good char
acter, and the general qualities of good
citizenship from an American consul,
who either know personally or can read

such character
Of course such system of consulates
would costmoney but a corps of active
honest agents scattered over the world
working for the interests of this country
and its people and products, would re-
pay a large salary expense,-and the
supervision of immigrants alone would
be worth the money.

The witnesses who have been sum.
moned by the Sampson side in the naval
investigation have closed their testi-
mony. About the worst they have
claimed against Schley is that they diff
tered in opinion with him as to what
ought to have been done at different
times. AS these gentlemen's opinions
have undoubtedly been modified by
"hind sight" since those times, it is not
remarkable that they now differ some
what from Schley's opinion who then
had only foresight to assist him. 1t is
quite probable that Schley himself has
mortified his own opinions since then.

CONVENTION REPRESENTATION.

Somebody has taken the trouble to
figure out the differences made by the
rule of the last republican committee,
that counties should be only entitled to
representation in the state convention as
shown by the smallest vote given to any
state candidate. While such basis
would make but small difference to
Pembina county and considerable differ.
ence to Grand Forks and some other
counties, yet there is little political pol
icy in attempting to punish any county
which. happens to give a good vote,
largely of the purely complimentary or
der, to home candidate who happens
to be on the other side. We do not ad-
vocate the splitting of the ticket under
such circumstances,-bu as matter OF
fact, no party nominates candidates with
out expecting them to run we'll in the
home counties to which they respectively
belong consequently these coun-
ties give smaller vote to the opposing
candidate. =
A system which Furnishes shortage
should, legitimately, encourage surplus
and if one county is to be punished for a
small vote on some one candidate, an.
other county ought to be encouraged by
"a larger representation for a large vote
for another candidate.
Really 1t is wrong to base the repre-
sehfation on any one candidates person
al popularity, which as certainty will
vary in different localities and often for
good reasons.
sThe fairest and most reasonable basis,
is the basis which takes all these yaria.
tions into consideration, and averages
. the total vote for all state candidates.
This will give the 'iavorite son" bust
ness, whether for or against the ticket
its Just deserts, and will size up things
just as they ought to be.

CHICAGO, July 10.-Not since the estab-
lshment of the weather bureau has this
city experienced such terrific heat as af-
fected it to-day. One hundred and two in
the shade In the Office of the weather bu-
reau was the high record, the highest
previous mark being July 16, 1884, when
99.S was reached. To-day 102 in the shade
was, however, the easiest part of the day.
The wind blew with force from the west
and southwest and a hotter, more sitting
air was never felt In this city. 1t seemed
to add 20 degrees TO the heat. So hot did
1t become during the afternoon, the
wind drove the hot air into the windows
and doorways. that all through the busi-
ness section Of the city tenants of offices
slammed down their windows to keep out
the air. AT the theaters where matinees
were in progress men were stationed at the
front doors to keep them closed much
found it was by shutting out the breeze.
Down on the street level, in the shade,
the mercury was but little above that in
the Auditorium tower, but in the sun and
on street crossings 1t was anywhere from
1C5 to 10. The air was so dry, however,
that its effects were not as disastrous as
would have been the case had greater hu-
but twenty-one prostrations were reported.
Tonight the wind changed to the north
west, blowing off Lake Michigan, with
the result that the mercury went down
20 degrees within an hour.
