FOUND A COMPLETE DINosAUR.
Most Specimens Except This One at
Butte Are in Erauments.

Most Specimens Except This One at
Butte Are in Fragments.
The petrified body Of a dinosaur,
weighing $500 pounds and measuring
30 feet from its head to its feet. has
been found near Butte, Mont, by c. Ut
terbeck, representative In this section
of the Carnegie musAAim of Pittsburg.
Most Of the remains of these gt
gantic animals are heaps of bones
which. beside being hard to handle,
must be put together with great car ,
and only show the real structure of
the great creature after an expert has
worked for months. This discovery
Of Mr.. Utterbeck will be hailed with
delight by all students.
Many parts of dinosaurs have been
found in Wyoming. They represent
three types of that animal, the most
common being the brontosaurus, which
sometimes reaches a length of 60 or
70 feet.
This creature has been the greatest
puzzle to the paleontologist. OF enor-
nous weight, with NJ e of defence
and without great speed, escape from
foes must have been only through its
ability to take to rivers and lakes. But
it had four we'll developed legs and
could not have led an exclusively
aquatic life.
How such a species escaped almo2t
immediate extinction is what interests

This indicates a large growth in the
frozen meat business in the neal fu-
ture, and there is no doubt that it will
be able to reach that development. The
number of animals that would be
slaughtered would represent but a
small percentage of the total in the
country. 1t is estimated that Argen-
tina has %, 900 900 cattle and 11O, OOO.-
900 sheep, which in view of its popu-
lation of only about 5000 900 people
would admit of much heavier ship
ments than the country makes at the
present time.
1t has been estimated that Argentina
has sufficient territory available for
stock growing to feed 100, 900 900 cat
tie II 800, 900. 900 sheep. But this
probably would depend upon the X
tent to which the land might be occu-
pied by farmers engaged in growing
wheat n other crops Gradually the
open range in Argentina will in a meas
uIe he taken up by farmers, just as the
states of Kansas. Nebraska and the
Dakotas have to a large extent been
occupied in this country.
Beyond question, however, there are
great possibilities for the livestock in,
dustry in the Argentine Republic. How
its development may affect the bust,
ness in the United States is not clear.
1t is possible. however. that by the
time Argentine meat shipments to Eur,
ope threaten that market for American
beef, the demand for all kinds of meat
products in the United States will
have become great enough to absorb
practically the entire local supply

TIE VALUE OF OUR TREES.
Without Them Present Civilization
Would Not Have Been Possible
for Ages, If at All.

In many parts Of our country
farming would be impossible but
for the trees, such is their inhu,
ence upon the streams. They reg
ulate the water-supply, and their
tendency is to prevent both floods
and drought; they supply fuel, one
eff the greatest necessities Of life,
and they furnish the lumber for
the building of our cities, rail
roads, ships, and thousand other
things without which, says Won
ans Home Companion, our pres
ent state Of civilization would not
have been possible for ages, if at
all. This is why we should be
rareful of our forests, which are
fast dwindling away in many see
rions; this is why Re should legis-
late against sheep grazing in the
forests, and against all other prac-
tees which tend to cause forest
fires, and why we should try to
protect our trees from their nat
ural enemies, such as landslides,
hoods, insects and fungi. And il
IS well to bear in mind the fact
that we cannot replace in 80 years
a tree which we can destroy in an
AOuP.

A NEW EDUCATIONAL IDEA.
Letters May Soon Be Exchanged Be
tween Children IN Schools of
London and Washington.

A communication has been re
eeiyed in Washington by the
board of education from the
school board in London request
ing that children of the capital be
allowed to correspond with those
in London, says the Washington
Times.
The idea is not a new one in
the United States, as il has been
the custom for some time for chill
dren in different cities to write
letters 10 each other. The plan
has been found to be effective III
giving children practical expert
ence in letter writing. and a wider
and clearer knowledge of geogra-
ply, history and the topics of gen
eral interest relative to these
cities.
In some way the plan was
brought 10 the notice of the board
of education Of London, and it is
believed that communications
similar to that received by the
Washington school board hay"
been sent to the trustees of
schools in other cities.
The Washington children will
be allowed to open correspond
ence with the English children,
and the same good effects are an
ticipated as in the past.
Members of the board of educa-
ton heartily indorse the plan.
They declare it teaches the chill
dren the history Of other cities in
a way that they can readily under
stand and grasp easier than
through school books. Core
sPondence is only allowed be
tween pupils of the same grade,
and are rarely of real personal
character.
The letters consist of descrip-
ffons of the general plan of the
city, its industries, and many
points of interest regarding It's
institutions and people. It is
believed that this sort of com
mnnication with English children
viii serve to teach American chill
dren much that they would not
otherwise learn.

hastily built fire. The Mayo Indi-
ands and Mexicans here assure
me it is Il sure cure

ORIENTAL PEWTER WORK.
Quite an Art Among the Chinese and
Japanese-Highly Appreciated
by Amateurs.

There is no question, says the
Boston Herald, but that antique
pewter from China and Japan is
being hailed BY collectors as a dis
covery. True, the compound is in
itself nothing so novel. Indeed,
our grandmothers used OCCASION
ally to get bits of it in the days of
the East India trade, when hus-
bands, sons and sWeethearts
would scurry about the Chinese
ports in search of souvenirs to
carry home to the women folks. ,
But somehow, in the midst of the
general furore over japanese art
that has prevailed these last few
years, very little has ever been
heard Of pewter objects, though
some amateurs have been aware
that it has claims to their consid-
Grafton.
The exhibition of Chinese and
japanese pewter which Paul Chal-
fin, curator of the oriental depart
ment at the Museum of Fine Arts,
IS now arranging in cases in the
metal room, is. so far as known,
the first of its kind ever made in
America. \ number Of articles Sc
cured at the amanaka and Mat
suki sales have already thus been
put on view. Some Of these spe-
cimens date back to the Sung
or Ming dynasties; others are
quite modern. But all illustrate
the possibilities of this metal in
the hands of skillful designers
Who know how TO use geld, silver
or brass IN connection with it.
In the center of the first case
that has been arranged there is a
large vaselike covered jar, dating
back to the fifteenth century, and
surmounted by statuette of cop
per, inlaid with brass. This is a
Chinese object, as are two small
tea caddies, with portions in high
relief; two large salFers of pew
ter, inIaid with brass, and a won.
derful teapot, with handle Of jade.
The Japanese pewter in another
case shows everywhere strong af-
tinity with the designs of other
branches Of japanese art, and diff
TERMINATES itself sharply in many
essential particulars from the
Chinese productions. Among
other things shown are a bowl OF
the seventeenth century, with
honeysuekle pattern, very
charming object in color and de
sign; large jar speckled with
black-the quality that makes ORR
entail pewter most valuable-and
indicating by its ornamentation
that it belongs to the class that
was once made by special com
mand Of the court Of Shotgun for
the emperor himself; a very strik-
ing bowl Of pewter exterior, inlaid
with panels Of brass. The objects
are now on view at the museum.
