At the present time, when so much

century ago win be of interest. The
writer was at that time a freshman
of Yale, but was not at the college
when inditing the epistle. He says:

SEEK FARMERS FROM JAPAN.
The Government of the Argentine
Republic Is Arranging for
10000 Immigrants.

A novel experiment in colonizing is
about to be made in the Argentine Re-
public 1t has been found that the
French, German and English immi-
grants for the most part have select
ed the cities and large centers of pop
ulation FOR their residence. In these
places they have got control of many
industries and take a leading share in
tie commerce of the country. The
Italians have been engaged heavily in
river navigation, while the stream OF
Irish which used To supply the de-
mands for agricultural labor filled up
the shipyards and supplied the labor of
docks, flows no more. Some French,
Swissand German peasants have found
ed agricultural colonies, and in GER
tatin places the Russians and Poles
form the bulk of the rural population.
But the Argentine govern has
decided that none of these nations
supplies in sufficient mum bers a rural
population for the development of the
;ountry, and have decided to import
japanese farmers. \ great concession
has been given in the province of For
mosa for the first colony, and arrange
ments have been made to bring over
10000 Japanese farmers and settle
them there.

MODERN BOILER MAKING.
The 0ld Way with Its Deafenin<
Noise nas been Almost Entirely
Done Away with.

We prepared for deafenng sounds.
But there was comparatively little
noise, for the old boiler1naker who
hammered away all day on rivets is.
in Baldwin's at least, a thing of the
past. His place has been taken by
powerful machinery that presses in
stead Of hammering. We began, says
Theodore Voters in Fra4s., Losie's
Popular Monthly, to get larger
glimpse OF The machiue-.ike precision
of the works, and from what we saw
il would seem that the making of q
locomotive boiler is the work of few
minutes. For instance, We went over
to where big machine was drilling
holes round the edges of some large
a dozen feet each way and were an
inch thick, yet the drills went
through several of them superim-
posed, as though they were SO much
felt. While we looked travelling
crane came rapidly up the aisle ard
stopped by the machine Two fat
hooks. like those used to lift barrels
came down from above. A workman
caught one on the edge of a metal
sheet which had been drawn from the
machine. He dexterously threw the
other hook across to the opposite side
of the sheet, and it caught neatly
over the edge. Immediately the crane
lifted the sheet into the air and car
ried it swiftly down the shop, per-
haps a hundred feet. to where roll
ing machine was working. One edge
of the sheet was dropped into the
rolling machine, which bit it as be-
tween teeth. The crane hooks slipped
off and the sheet began to slide in be-
tween the rolls, There was heavy
grinding sound, and then we could
see the sheet coming up from the
rolls. It was no longer fat, but
curved into great tube. Workmen
slipped it out of the end OF thc roll
ing machine, and another crane came
along, picked If up, and started away
With it. We followed after.

months and where all the social

and starehless: in Poona the summer
garments of England and frnerica
suffice. and in Mahableshwa serges

At Calcutta and Simla the smartest
and most up-to-date clothes are called
for. In Calcutta the women wear the
dainty fripperies of London June,
and when they go up 20 Simla they
add warm furs and eloa1Ss. Simla is
the Paris of the Himalayas. During
six months in Simla you experience
three climates-two months warm,
bright and joyful; three of fogs and
heavy rains, when nothing but stout
boots and heavy tweeds can be worn,
and two months of rarefied, cham
pagny atmosphere that demands the
furs.
In some territories it so cold that
the people who cannot afford furs
wear leather coats, and the British
troops have special vests made,
padded and lined.
As to lingerie, the finest cambria is
advisable, but lavish laces are not ad-
visable, in spite of the clever washer
woman, who lives on the premises.

A RUSH FOR AUTOS.
Manufacture and Sales Have IA
creased over n Hundred Per
Cent. During Past Year.

The year in automobiles has been a
good one, but even with its increase of
about 100 per cent in the manufacture,
the business was not entirely crafty
ing to manufacturers. At the outset
the makers looked for tremendous
sales, but with the unsettled eondi-
ton in business, generally due TO de-
clining values, many purchases held
back. Prices of autos. however, were
well held throughout the year, and in
some instances advanced. The auto
mobile is not novelty, allowing a
wide margin of profit to the maker.
as at is essential that all parts of the
machinery included in its construction
be Of equal merit, which prevents in
fsrior productions and keeps prices
up.
The demand for pleasure vehicles
represented only about 25 per cent. Of
the total increase in the output dur
ing the year, which indicates their
growing popularity. The striking
growth was in the output of delivery
and truck autos. One Of the features
that developed during the year was the
formation of several bus and truck
companies for the purpose of hand
ang country passengers and farm
products to and from towns. 1t has
developed that this business is a sue
cess, and will eventually expand to
vast proportions. The export demand
mas also grown materially, and the

WOMEN ON HORSEBACK.
They Learn to Ride Very Readily and
Are Noted for Their
Courage.

The number of women, especially in
the upper circles of the east, who
have taken to equestrianism is increas-
ing very rapidly. 1t has been noted
as a somewhat singular fact that the
average woman becomes a more pro-
heient rider than the average man. for
she has naturally lighter hands and is
SO enabled to obtain more satisfactory
results. Riding, like all other exer-
cises that require both grace and skill
is more easily learned while young.
and this aptitude OF The youngsters has
been a source of modification to many
of their elders who could not grasp
the knack of riding so easily. How
ever, but few women who once begin 10
learn to ride ever give it up either from
distaste or inability to master the
difficulties of learning. Generally wom-
EN- are very courageous riders. and it
it fact that a well-bred horse never
lacks courage when a woman is on his
back.
Stout women experience the great
est difficulty in learning to ride, and
seldom become graceful or competent
riders. No stout woman should at
tempt to ride at other gaits than the
walk or canter, and il is at this latter
gait that all women lock their best.
beginners, as a rule, are always nerv-
GUS and haunted by fear of falling,
and even the more experienced riders
do not seem to enjoy riding horse
that rears. and, in fact. this is quite
the worst fault horse can have.
