LITERARY NOTES.

The leading story In october st.
Nicholas, THAT Deer" an exciting
California story by Marian Warner
Wildman, is Just as good for girls as
for boys, and is equally interesting
for the older folks as well. Besides
numerous other interesting stories,
the reader finds plenty of reading
more substantial and equally as In
terestng "A Trip Through the
New York Assay Office" Is of espe.
cial interest to those of Ms who reside
in the mineral belt.
While the October number of Cen.
fury is truly a sportsman's number
containing much of interest to the
sportsman, other departments have
not been neglected, there being three
articles of much variety by officers OF
the United States government, deal
ing in a popular way with topics OF
current interest, while In fiction the
number is especially rich. In the edi.
torial department are some plain
spoken words concerning the increase
of lynching and discussion OF THE
Cant About Hard Work." which are
especially interesting.
The Worlds Work for October is a
striking number. typically American.
and presenting concretely many inter.
esting phases of territorial and NUM-
cipal progress and achievement. The
story of "The Human Legacy 1T
Jonathan Edwards" legacy of four.
teen hundred descendants Is told by
Edith A. Winship and Is perhaps the
most convincing argument yet made
against race suicide, being most inter
esting to Utahns, where large fami-
| lies are not infrequent. There are
many articles of interest In this num-
Der, which is most creditable one.
Country Life in America for Octo-
Der is a superbly illustrated. double
Country Home number, and takes up
the various problems that cluster
about the building OF a country house.
from how the cellar can be kept dry.
to the question of interior decorations.
1t is, in fact, complete house build
ing manual Many of the articles are
by prominent architects. There are
many articles of utmost interest, and
one especially timely to the citizens of
the west, being a discussion of The
Water Problem in the Country"
The October number of Outing is a
gem, the stories being especially inter-
esting to. those familiar with outdoor
life, as well as to the city-bred man
who, in times of trial and woe, long
for the privilege of wandering in the
fields and meadows amid the scenes
of his early childhood.
The Cosmopolitan for October
comes to us laden with good things
pleasing stories of fiction, articles OF
current interest, richly illustrated
and is, in fact, number Of which the
publishers of this most estimable mag
azine may well be proud.

Production of Nitric Acid.

The production Of nitric acid by
electro-chemical methods Is a new
process that promises extensive
changes In our agriculture. The
manufacture of nitric acid from the
nitrogen and oxygen of the air in suf'
dcient quantities for commercial use
has been the dream and hope of sci

ments have been conducted success
fully in producing commercial nitric
acid by using high-tension current

aperture. This led to the discovery
that the monkey was filed with pa
