HIGH SEA OVERTOPS LOFTY
SIDES OF STEAMSHIP QUEEN
Vessels Decks Swept by Mighty Wave Off Umatlls
Reef and Coaster Is Compelled to Heave To-She
Brings 100000 Japanese Gold Yen From Victoris

The Pacific Coast Steamship Com7
pany's Queen stands higher out Of the
water than any other vessel engaged
in the coast trade, but when off Una
tilla reef on the passage ended at this
port yesterday one sea climbed higher
than the Queens tall sides and de-
scended in briny torrents, which tenn
porarily converted the upper deck
into the bed of a boiling stream.
Fortunately there had been quite
a commotion IN wave circles prior to
the arrival Of this ambitious comber
and the decks were clear of passen-
gers. When the steamer had shaken
herself free of the water and had re-
covered from the shock that accom-
panied the deluge Captain Cousins
hove the Queen to and waited until
the sea had somewhat calmed down.
For some time after resuming her
way the k steamer travelled at half
speed, and instead of getting here
early yesterday morning did not reach
port until the afternoon, sixty-seven
hours from Victoria.
The Queen brought from Victoria
100000 Japanese gold yen, which
had crossed the Pacific on one of the
liners running to the northern port.

Origin of Plymouth Rock.

From a number of Farm and
Home published IN 1881, The
Feather reproduces an article
over the signature &C. M. W."
relative to the origin of the
Plymouth Rock breed of chick
ems, as follows:
II wish to give the history of
the Plymouth Rock fowl. They
were produced on the farm of
the late Joseph Spaulding of
Putnam, Conn. About thirty
years ago John Giles. Esq, we'll
known to the poultry world,
introduced fowl called Black
Java. They were large, black
and glossy, remarkably hardy,
good layers and excellent for
the table. Mr.. George Clark
of Woodstock, Conn, passed
Spaulding's place one day and
noticed his fine flock of Domi.
niques. Mr.. Clark proposed to
bring over some of his Javas to
cross with them in order to in.
crease their size. Mr.. Spa uld-
ing accepted the offer and when
the chickens were grown up, he
rejected the black ones and
those with double combs and
reserved to breed from only
single combs which retained the
Dominique color. From this
start finally evolved the Plym-
outh Rock breed of fowls.

President Jesse Says Study Agriculture.

President Jesse of Missouri
University thinks that young
men ought to study agriculture
in preference to law or medi-
cine. In a recent publication
he says:
"Unless boy has deep
seated preference for some 9th
err profession it does not seem to
me wise for him to ignore the
great opportunities that agri-
culture offers whether be was
born in the country or 10 the
city. In my opinion no other
occupation offers so rich re-
wards, all things considered, as
agriculture offers to those who
are willing to train themselves
for it as earnestly and intelli-
gently as they would train
themselves for law or medicine.
If a boy will put the same
amount of time and study int o
his training for agricultur e
that he would put into his
training for law or medicine he
will in the great majority of
cases make more money, enjoy
greater freedom, better health,
and develop stronger charac-
ter"

Centers Of World Interest.

The triumphs of Peace and
the triumphs of War are set in
contrast just now in the eastern
and western worlds. Japan,
her armies pushing steadily on
ward, has driven the Russian
outposts entirely out of Korea
and is pressing the Russian
lines along the Yalu river, sep
arating Korea and Manchuria.
In the west, Peace celebrates
her victories of invention and
energy al the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition that opened
its gates at st. Louis April 80.
These are, for the time, the
chief centers of the world inter-
est. On the one hand, foes
fighting to the death for empire
and glory; on the other, friends
competing honorabIy and in am.
ity for mutual gain.
Let US be glad that the spirit
of this people is b.st expressed
in the expositions of mans use
full activities; that we have no
need to take part in the war
now waging beyond the Pacific;
that our representatives in con-
gress understand and respond
to the national spirit by provid-
ing generously tor expositions,
which, beyond their CONNER
cial value, do larger and bet
ter service in bringing the ma
tions of the earth into peaceful
rivalry with each other and
make friends for our own nation
throughout the world. The
jamestown exposition in Vir-
ginia and the Lewis and Clark
exposition to be held in Port
land, Oregon, should be and we
doubt not will be literally as.
sisted by the federal govern
ment. The fact that neither is
likely to earn a profit for its
projectors is not vital point.
Public schools do not earn a
profit either, save indirectly;
like the public schools, these
expositions are educators, and
should be treated on that basis.
The price of a single battleship
is double what is asked from the
federal government for either
of the two expositions named,
and certainly no one will deny
that these expositions will be
worth more to the country, in
the spur they lend to invention
and commerce, in their educa-
tive aspects, and in winning
friends tor us among other peo-
Piles, than the price of many
battleships, National Maya

Salt TO Kill Hedge.

A correspondent of Kansas
Farmer gives this method of
killing hedge:
Cut the hedge about four or
five inches above the ground
and take the ak and maui and
split the stump like the letter x
as deep as you can. Cut off a
round pin and drive down into
the center of the stump and fill
full of strong salt (any dirty
salt will do.) This should be
done any time from May l to
July Is, and in one 0year you
can pillow up the stumps un less
they are very large. 1t will
surely kill them. After a heavy
rain if the salt is washed out,
put in a new supply. With a
little attention 1 can kill the
biggest hedge in the state in
one season, or any other tree. 1
have used this for twenty years.
