it's history where the forests are as

and other government interests. "A
small army patrols the wooded areas,
and only certain portions OF the for
ests can be cut each year. >
With us, however, the refOrestatiOn
Of devastated areas is only an expert
ment as yet, and much more money is
spent every year in new machinery and
devices for the rapid telling and cut
ting of the trees than goes for plant
ing new growths. In the illustra ton
will be seen one of the newest tools,
which seems to displace the ak almost

is possible, with this new implement
and it's accompanying apparatus, to
fell tree and cut it up into lengths
which can be hauled to the mill in
much quicker time than can be done
with the ak.
The compressor plant consists of a
small engine, storage tank and air
pump, fuel being obtained from the
waste debris of the forests. From the
storage reservoir any number Of lines
Of hose may be led out in different
directions, each ending in cylinder
and piston to operate a large saw.
These are mounted on clamping
bracket to hold them in rigid connec-
tion with the log, and the operator has
only to press the valve lever to admit
air to the cylinder, guiding the saw
through the log. 1t is not difficult to
realize what a swath one compressor
and a dozen saws would cut in a big
forest in a few weeks time.

Lord Kitchener Of Khartum is credit

back riding that is known. The SOL

what it felt like to ride camel, be
twisted his mustache and said:
"'You know the game of cup and
ball? You have ball and a cup, ana
you throw the ball in the air and try
to catch it in the cup, then bounce it
up and try to catch it again. Well,
when you ride a camel the brute plays
cup and ball with you, missing you

They Can Smell Land Long before I,
Comes In Sight. 55
The ability Of horses to smell land
when far at seal not generally known
but the equine must be credited with
this acute sense. *a
When aFwell known horseman OF
Philadelphia went to Europe some time
ago he took blooded horse with him.
The animal was in a specially prepared
stall on deck and enjoyed the trip
despite the rough weather. When the
horseman thought land should soon be
sighted, he asked the captain how far
the ship was from the Irish coast The
commander of the steamer, in his usual
gruff manner, replied: "Your horse will
tell you. Watch him."
The owner of the animal could not
understand what the captain meant,
and he was not particularly pleased
with the answer Finally, however,
and a couple of hours before land was
observed, the horse which was a mag
niticent bay, poked his head through
the grating and, stretching his neck,
whinnied loudly.
'Ihere you are said the captain to
the horseman. Your horse smells the
land.' The horse was like a different
animal thereafter until the coast loom
ed up.
The captain in explaining the odd
occurrence said that the thoroughbred
detected the odor from pasture lands
horses on board ocean steamers always
give the first signal when land is hear.

A POISON FACTORY.

The Stomach Is Always Busy Form
ing Deadly Substances.
The body is a factory of poisons. Ii
these pOiSOns. which are constantly
being produced in large quantities in
the body, are imperfectly removed or
are produced in too great quantity as
the result of overfeeding, the fluids
which surround the brain cells and all
the living tissues are contaminated
with poisonous substances which as
phyxiate and paralyZe the cells and so
interfere with their activity. This fact
explains in part at least the stupidity
which is a common after dinner expe-
rience with many persons.
When food is retained in the stom-
ach beyond the normal time, either be-
cause of it's indigestiDility, the taking
of too large a Quantity of it or a Grip
pied state of the stomach, these
changes are certain to take place. This
fact explains very large share of the
myriad symptoms which afflict the
chronic dyspeptic. The giddiness, the
tingling sensations, the confusion Of
thought and even partial insensibility
which are not infrequently observed a
few hours after meals in chronic dys-
peptics are due to this cause. Here is
the explanation of the irascibility, the
dependency, the. pessimism, the indie
cision and various other forms of men-
tai perversity and even moral deprav-
ity which are not infrequently associ-
ated with certain forms of gastro-in~
testinal disturbances. Family

Residents of Methow Valley, in Okanaogan county, Washington, have made the discovery of late that Wash ington was once situated Tn the tropi- cal zone. Mammoth lodges of stone have been found, which, when broken, reveal fossil impressions of twigs, blades of grass and large leaves, such as palms, and trees unknown to temperate and frigid zones. There are also Incased in the rocks numerous nuts and fruits of different species, such as almonds, olives, pawpaws and others known only to tropical ell mates. These nuts and fruits have at tained such a state of petrifcation as to become much harder than the stone which surrounds them.

FORTUNES ID BE
 MADE IN MINING
This Industry Attract
 ing Capitalists.
Manufactures Have Reached Limit of Profit and Money Must
 Seek New Outlet.

That the limit of profits has been reached in we'll established manufac- lures in this country, and that for the next quarter of century the millions are to be made chiefly by mining in the West, is the prevalent opinion of many of Boston's leading bankers. They are so thoroughly convinced that the money of at least the next 9 years must come chiefly from the other side of the Mississippi river that they are bending every effort to utilize their capital in the mining industry.
 There is probably no capitalist to- day in the whole United States who is more enthusiastic in leaving all Lis interests in the Easetrn States and going west, than Chas. M. Schwab, the former president of the United States Steel corporation. With party of moneyed men and mining engineers he is now travelling through Nevada and California, looking over his mines in those states and purchas- ing other extensive tracts of land, which he is positive will yield some precious metal.
 ''We people down East" says Mir. Schwab, "have made money in manu facture, and while the largest fortunes in the country have been made in that industry during the past 9 years, I believe that the great fortunes of the future are in mining in the west.
 ''The great fortunes of the past were made because the people engaged in manufactures were able to eclipse their competitors. Those great op- portunities have been gradually pass ing away, and of late have gone quickly. Today all manufacture is on a we'll established basis, and the limit has been reached, so far as the great profits are concerned,
 tIn mining great new field seems to be opening up, in which the wealth of Mother Earth is going to be drawn upon by persons who are willing to risk their capital in extracting it. That is my belief, and 1 predict that the great fortunes of the next quarter of century will come from the mines of the vest In few years we shall see another influx into the mining territory which will be equaled only by the rush West in 1S49.'
 ''Charles NJ. Schwab's idea of the West and the profits that will be de rived within the next 9 years in nina V" said Frank E. Peabody, of the banking house of Kidder, Peabody S Co.,, "is something which we people here in the east have believed for years Mining should supercede man. ufscture, for years now that we'll established manufacture is at a stand still as far as large profits are con- cerned.
 Manufacturing at present is not paying as well as many capitalists have expected, but we hope to see it pick up again within few years.
 While the mining sections of the United States are numerous, Arizona offers great inducements for invest ment in this industry. It has the mineral which only needs capital for its development, while climatic con- ditions for successful mining in Ari zona are not surpassed any place in the United States.
