Iron Ore Semi Centennial Is Postponed
for Few Days.
DULUTH, Mimi, June 26.-Inclem-
ent weather has caused the postpone
ment for a few days of the Lake Su-
perior Iron company's big celebration
at Ishpeming. Many prominent iron
men of the Lake Superior region were
on hand for the festivities in honor of
the semi centennial of the iron mining
industry of the lake region, and large
crowds from Ishpeming and neighbour
ing towns were preparing to take part
in the exercises. The marvellous de-
Velopment of the mining and shipment
of iron ore from Lake Superior has
been the most remarkable feature of
the past fifty years in this section Of
the country. The first iron mine was
located in 1845, but the first shipment
OF ore was not made until 1850, and
consisted of only five tons. There was
no canal at Sault Ste. Marie then, and
all freight had to be taken across the
portage. No great development could
be made without continuous naViga- =
ton to the lower lakes, and naturally
the growth of the industry was very
slow until the canal was constructed.
With the establishment Of the water
way connecting Lake Superior with
the lower lakes a great impetus was
given to the iron ore industry, but it
was IOl uIItI 1900 CnaC the OUTPUT OF
the mines exceeded 5000, 900 tons.
In 1892 the first shipments were
made from the Mesaba range, and
thereafter that range became a large
and increasing producer, until last year
its output was one-half the total out
put of the whole Lake Superior region
during the thirty years from the first
shipment to 1885. In 1901 the Lake
Superior mines furnished "A per cent
entire Of
duced in the United States, the ship
ments passing 20,5OO,O0O tons. While
the output in the United States at large
doubled between the years 1888 and
1871, the production of the Lake Su-.
perior mines quadrupled during the
same period, furnishing nearly all the
increase IN the ore production Of the
country. Last year the Lake Superior
total reached 27,571,121 tons, bringing
the total output of the mines in this
region during the past forty-seyen
years up to 219,583,642 tons.

BOHEMIAN, Mont, June 26.-The So
called arid section of Montana, where
irrigation is impossible bids fair to
become a field of roses instead of Il
barren desert, peopled only by rattle
snakes and prairie dogs. Officials Of
the state experimental STATEN have
been conducting experiments which
show, according to Frank w. Hall, as
sistant to the director of the station,
that good crops can be raised on the
land, provided care is taken in the Sc
lection of the grain to be raised.
Excellent wheat is being grown In
many places in the arid district and
farmers sent out by the experimental
station managers are raising fine crops
Of alfalfa and red clover, which bring
a good price in the market, on account
of their excellent quality as seed. The
greatest drawback thus far encounter
ed is the fact that but one crop can be
raised each year, instead of two, often
three, in the irrigated districts. Steps
are now being taken for the formation
of a colony to take up the so-called
arid land, which has gone begging for
years.

dirty. dreadful, disgusting stuff"
John Ruskin. overhearing this exclama-
tion on the part of his friend said Hold,
my friend, not SO dreadful after all. What
are the elements of this mud First, there
is sand, but when it's pa.ticles are crystal
lied according to the law Of it's nature,
what is nicer than clean, white sand?
And when that which enters into it is ar
ranged according to still higher law, we
have the matchless opal. What else have
we in this mud? Clay. And the materials
of clay, when the particles are arranged
according to their higher laws, make the
brilliant sapphire. What other ingredients
enter into London mud? SCOT. And SCOT
in it's crystalized perfection forms the per.
feet diamond. There is but one other
water. Ana water, when distilled accord
ing to the higher law of its nature, forms
the dew;,drop resting in exquisite perfec-
ton in the heart of the rose.
