DIR. BECKER's DISCOVERY.

DIR. Becker. of the United
States geological survey, thinks
be has found tie site of the Cars
den Of Eden in the island of Luz
ION.
The learned doctor writes that
he has discovered fossils which
convince him that this was the first
abode of man.
There is great joy among our
expansionisis over DR.. Becker's
alleged discovery. They hope, no
doubt, that it will have great eff
feet il counteracting the growing
conviction that we made a bad
bargain whgn we paid Spain $780,
900. 600 for the Philippines, IS
pecialiy as Spain didn't nave them
when we bought them from her.
1t has cost US about S., 900, 900 a
month for nearly two years to try
te get what We were supposed to
have purchased, to say nothing of
the seven thousand American sole
diers who have been killed, wound
ed or deceased in the effort, and
the fifteen or twenty thousand who
are new tick in that fearful Gil
mate.
But if it shall turn out that we
have come into the possession of
the Garden of Eden our expendi-
ture of blood and treasure already
| incurred ard that hereafter to be
made will, of course, be fully JUS
tilted.
We might get some of our
money back by selling the fossils
Dr.. Becker has found and those
he may yet dig up. The site of the
garden in which Adam and Eve
wandered might be enclosed and
a stiff price Of admission charged.
The sale Of soda water, ice cream,
beer merry-go-round, "shoot the
chutes" and other privileges
should bring in additional revenue,
and as the government pays DR..
Becker's salary, it should be en-
titled to the receipts from his lecc
lures to visitors and the sale OF
his guide book.
The possibility that DR.. Becker
has struck the real thing is
strengthened greatly by the fact
that when our able peace c,m.
missioners bargained for the Phil
ipp'nes they did not know what
they were buying. Spain hal
raked up two islands which they
supposed were included in tn,

IRON AND SUGAR IN RUSSIA.
As e Birmingham Age-Herald

As e Birmingham Age-Herald
by, 10 aa.s lose p-o.eo.Ioa
with a bic P. but thew have no
love for reciprocity even in lower
case letters, This has resulted in
fric,i, n wi b Russia, which PROM
ises to be very inter estiDg. The
case is briefly this: The sugar
trust does not want to be troubled
by Russisn beet sugar, It insists
that the Russian government pays
a bounty OF one cent a pound upon
beet sugar grown by Russians in
Russia, and the sugar trust de-
mands the placing OF an additional
duty of one cent upon such sugar,
in accordance with the provisions
of the 'robber tariff. Secretary
Gage has, of course, conformed
to the demands of tho sugar
trust, because it AMI similar
trusts elected the administration
and really own it.
AS we import but $780, 900 of
sugar from Russia and send to
Russia each year goods to the
value O: $50, 600, 900, it is plain
| we stand "a lose under this new.
trade warfare. AS the case stands
| Russia claims it does not pay a
bounty upon beet sugar, and she
goes on practically to say that if
Secretary Gage collects an addi-
tional duty on Russian beet
sugar he will get a dose of tariff
medicine in Russia thai will not
''set" we'll on his system Or those
Of his supervising trusts.
A cargo of Russian beet sugar
is now held up in Philadelphia,
and if the additional duty be col.
lected from it Russian retaliation
is feared, and this means great
injury to a promising trade with
Russia. of which iron and steel
and their products form no in
considerable part. Russian ores
are lean, and Russian fuel is far
from the ores. Russia is not and
never can be an iron-making
country. She needs American iron,
and she needs many other kinds
of American goods The clash in
Russia under the terms of the
robber tariff is but an example of
what will follow when natiun after
ration begins to appreciate its
Iobber-l,ke terms, and to fight it
in it's own way and on its own
lines.

Of us it is irritating and unpleqgant

him well. Not long since one of the
cobras in the Geological grounds al
Bronx Park was found with a curious
swelling on its head, and its keeper
declared that the protuberance was

that bit the cobra were then to inact
his attentions upon a human being
what might not the consequences be?
If we are to have poisons of various
kinds made nter-communicable by the
mosquito, what has comparatively
harmless man to offer in exchange for
the questionable characteristics of the
cobra? He might give it malaria, or
yellow fever, or even smallpox but
whether a cobra would mind such little
things as those is matter of much
doubt We do not know if Dr. Doty
has tried nitroglycerine as an insect
eXterminator or not, but we should say
that mosquito loaded up with that
explosive and vigorously slapped by
some well applied human hand, might
develop qualities of highly interest
ing if not sudden and untimely sort
We sincerely trust that taste for that
sort of thing will not be among the
tricks taught the mosquito in the edu-
cation which he is now receiving or is
about to receive at the hands of science
and that he may be confined to a diet
of petroleum so long as that proves to
be satisfactorily fatal.

BRAINS AGAINST BEAUTY.

of Beauty is Over.

Quite recently famous French phil
osopher made the startling announce
ment that the reign of beauty is over
for womeu-that it is gray matter in
the brains and not roses on the cheeks
that count now, and that the plain
faced women is the ruling style. In
asmuch as the supply of femenine
beauty has never been enough to go

women got short measures of that sup

supposed to be a Woman's birthright
this is certainly comforting theory

Trolley Roads for the Country


We do not go much on prophesyipg,
but we like to think that we see in the
near future vast extension Of the
country trolley road system into all
localities removed so far as ten miles
from steam railway. The East Is be-
ing gridrOned with these roads. and
they are being operated at handsome
profit to the owners and to the untold
benefit of the communities which they
serve, The trolley comes the nearest
to being everybody's road of anything
yet evolved in the way Of transporta-
ton. While it is operated on time
schedule, 1t stops anywhere and accom-
odates everybody along it's route The
conductor becomes purchasing agent
for its patrons and fills their orders and
delivers the goods with as much
promptness as though the purchasers
lived in town. Built of standard
gauge track, the freight car picks up the
heavier and bulkier farm products, such
as stock, grain, etc, and delivers them
to the steam road at the city In a
word, the country trolley line, cheaply
built and operated, affords every con-
venience offered by the steam road,
with the added advantage that it Is in
fnitely more adaptable to the wants
and needs of the community. Where
ever capitalists are willing to put their
money into such roads the farmers OF
the community should extend to the
road their most hearty and loyal support.
The trolley. the telephone and the rural
mail route are the three agencies which
are destined to regenerate country life
and country business.

Wind Breaks.

There is one thing of more impOr-
lance to the man who locates on a
prairie farm than the securing of a
good substantial wind break at the
earliest opportunity. Wind is all right
in its place. filling the sails of a ship.
whirling the windmill and drying up
the mud, but to have it working its
own sweet way in barnyard and round
the farm home day in and day out it is
an unmitigated nuisance. Such wind
break can be most quickly obtained by
deep blowing -sub-soiling would be
still better-of an L-shaped tract of
land bounding the north and west
sides of the homestead, containing
about three acres and located far
enough from all yards and buildings so
as to leave ample room for the home
grounds, the barns, sheds, garden and
orchard this land so prepared to be set
out to the soft wood types of native
trees--soft maple, cottonwood, box eld-
er and willow-about Is feet apart each
way and to be well cultivated for three
years at least A fve-year growth of
such trees so cared for will give a very
effective wind break. A row or two of
Scotch pine planted inside such wind
break and not less than 80 feet from it
will make il still better. A common
mistake in planting such grove is TO
set the trees too thick, and the result is
that as the trees grow they crowd each
other, and many Of them die out. leav-
ing the grove irregular and patchy,
The soft maple will bear planting more
thickly than any of the varieties nam

Buying Land without Seeing It.

The Bible refers to a certain man
who bought a piece OF land without see
ing it, and, while tie record does not
state whether he got beat or not, the
chances are that he did. This prompts
the remark that about the most foolish
thing a man can do is to buy land
without seeing 1t, and lots of men are
doing this thing every day now in their
eager craze to get hold of land. We
would not invest a dollar in any land
until we had tested the soil and the
sub-soil 10 depth Of at least three
feet, till we had ascertained the aver
age rainfall for a series of years in the
locality where the land was situated,
until we had ascertained the quality
and quantity of water accessible by dig
Eing or boring, until we know what sort
of crops the climate and soil would pro
duce and the class of people that were
TO become permanent neighbors.
