all manufacturing industry to get

all manufacturing industry to get
closer to the raw material.
For a half century or more the
cotton of the South was woven into
sheeting and other fabrics in the
cotton mills of New En- ngland.
During the last decade there has been
general movement of the cotton
mill industry from New England to
the cotton fields of the South.
1t is in the line of industrial evo-
luton that the starch industry should
move from the East to the center of
the great raising territory.
When Oswego became the center Of
the starch industry of this country
New York was a great corn-growing
state. For many years past, how
ever, the corn for these factories has
been shipped from the western "corn
belt,' on which the consumer paid
the combined cost of lake and rail
haul in addition to elevator charges
at Buffalo.
The few small factories in Indiana
and other western states were alb
sorbed by the starch trust few years
ago, and the plants have been idle
ever since. With the starch business
in the hands of one combine it will
be all easy matter to concentrate the
entire industry in Chicago, the CEN
ter of the corn growing district and
the natural point for the manufac-
ture and distribution of starch. -

KINDLY MIR. EVANS.

Several months ago Commissioner
of Pensions Evans was at Chattanooga
for few days rest. One day while
he was in the corridor of leading
hotel. talking with group of
friends, MANNED old man, dressed in
tatters, hobbled up and begged per-
mission to speak to Mr.. Evans. His
request was promptly granted. He
poured out his story to the commits
sioner, and ended his pathetic recital
by declaring that he thought himself
entitled to pension. A tear sprang
to the eye of the gentle hearted COM
missioner as he replied, with evident
emotion: eyes, I believe you are
entitled to pension but there is a
link of proof lacking in your case;
and while it is hard for me to do it,
I must refuse to grant your claim,
because it would establish precedent
that would let down the bars for
thousands of unworthy claims"
Drawing the veteran aside, the COM
missioner slipped crisp bill into
his hand, and slapping him familiarly
on the shoulder, said: 81 am sorry
for you, but have resolved that it is
better that a few deserving ones
should suffer rather than that the
public treasury should be looted. -

SALT LAKE DRYING UP.

According to several scientific men
Salt Lake will soon be thing of the
past. Prof. w. G.. McGee calculates
the life of the lake will probably be
ended in twenty-five years.
According to these gentlemen the
reason for the rapid acceleration of
the drying up of the great Salt Lake
is the diversion of streams formerly
feeding it for irrigation. This cause,
they say, will be further added to by
the construction of the numerous
mountain reservoirs now planned to
hold storm water.
The scientists prophesy that the
result of the drying up Of the lake
will be a salt and alkali desert.
These gentlemen do not apparently
figure on one of the results of irri-
cation that we know about in Cali
fornia. This is the percolation Of ir-
rigation water after it has been ap-
piled to the land. The experience of
Riverside and Fresno, and especially
Of Fresno, demonstrates the import
ance of percolating water from irri-
cation. In Fresno this seepage water
has become a serious problem that
can only be solved by an effective
drainage system. 1t is, therefore,
within the probabilities that the
Great Salt Lake will not rapidly dry
up, as prophesied by the scientists by
reason Of irrigation diversion of it's
feeders. The utilized water there
also is likely to find it's way back
underground to the lake. 1t takes
often a number of years for seepage
water to show itself, ON account of
the slowness of underground perco.
lation. Those who love salt air and
those who hate alkali deserts may
therefore take courage in doubling
the prophesied catastrophe of Salt
Lake rapidly drying up, even though
it may start on this process and for a
time continue it.-Los Angeles Satur-
day Post.

AGAINST THE TRUST.

Nature and art are both in league
against the beef trust.
The ocean is doing it's level best to
furnish in quality and quantity it's
quota Of provision.
The mackerel catch this season is
reported to be the best ever landed in
the same length of time. So many
mackerel vessels are arriving in
New York they cannot be accommo-
dated at the Fulton market docks and
must land elsewhere. At Newport,
at Martha's Vineyard. at Gloucester,
the reports are that the catch is i'm
mense and the quality exceptionally
good.
What is true of mackerel is true of
halibut. Heavy shipments have been
made from the Pacific coast and the
receipts on the Atlantic shores have
been so large that enormous amounts
have been sold to smokers.
With this good news from the east
and far west report comes from
Minnesota that new food product
has been discovered.
DR.. Anderson of the University of
Minnesota claims to have found a
way which promises to revolutionize
many branches of industry having to
do with starched foods.
He began with the theory that all
starch bearing food can be made to
"pop," as corn pops. when subjected
to heat. He found he could pop rice,
potatoes and number of other food
products, and that several of the re-
sultant foods embodied many advan-
tages lacking in the natural product.
After potatoes are popped they can
be compressed into small cakes and
transported. When desired water or
milk is added and they are converted
into mashed potatoes ready fol
eating
Some sixty distinct new foods have
been added by Professor Anderson tc
the list of foods hitherto used. One
of the most important is flour and
water popped" into biscuit These
are said to be light and feathery, just
the thing for healthy or weak
stomachs
With these promises in view the
beef trust is not all unmitigated evil

A Japanese Superstition.

Writing exhaustively Of dragon flies
Lafcadio Hearn says in his book, "A
Japanese Miscellany" Of "the dragon
hy OF the dead"
Unlike the equally weird name
'yurei-tcmbo. or ghost dragon fly the
Sm shroai-tombo does not refer to
the appearance Of the insect, but TO
the strange belief that certain dragon
flies are ridden by the dead. used as
winged steeds.
"From the morning of the thirteenth
TO the midnight Of the fifteenth day of
the old seventh month-the time OF the
festival OF the BOn-the dragon flies
are said TO carry the hotoke-sama, the
august spirits Of the ancestors, who
then revisit their former homes. There
fore, during the Buddhist All Souls
children are forbidden to modest any
dragon dies. especially dragon flies
that may happen to enter the family
dwelling.
This supposed relation OF dragon
flies TO the supernatural world helps to
explain an old folk saying, still current
in some provinces. TO the effect that the
child who clutches dragon fies will
never obtain knowledge

No other member Of the animal king

harpooned. The harpooner never throws
his harpoon into the little one with the
the intention of killing II, for if this is
done the mother will instantly forsake
it. If alive and struggling. however.
the dam can be easily enticed toward
the boat TO meet its fate. Knowing
this. the whale fishermen always strike
a calf If possible and thus often make
captures that could not be effected un.
der other circumstances.
As soon rs the dam becomes aware
OF the sharing Of her young she rushes
toward il. encourages ii to swim away
and even assists il by taking ii under

for her own safety and boldly attacks

circles about il totally regardless of
the harpoons that are hurled at her and
enter her flesh.
