The danger. Of orchid HuntIng


The most beautiful region the orchid
collector meets in his travels is along
the Orinoco, the Rio Negro and the
Amazon, in South America. The seen
cry at times passes beyond the beauti-
full and becomes so grand as to be al
most terrible. Everything is on such a
great scale. The rivers are the largest
in the world, veritable seas at high
water, the vegetation luxuriant beyond
comparison and the animal and fish
life startlingly strange. There we find
the Cattleya schroederoe, magnificent
orchid with white flowers, which
blooms about Easter time. But the
dangers and vexations of a trip on
the Orinoco, for instance, would hardly
be believed. Miles and miles back
from the coast in the district where
the orchids are found the Indians are
in a wild state and are foes to all white
men. They lurk in the bushes along
the banks of the river and shoot poi
soned arrows at you II you happen to
venture within range Of their blow
guns. The center Of the stream is the
only safe place During the rainy sea-
son the mosquitoes swarm on the ORR

pounds of granulated sugar and two

The Spoiled Children OF the World.
Burmese children are the spoiled chill
dren Of the world, according to V. G.
Scott O'Connor In his book, "The
Sfken East" he says that they are
never punished by their parents, who
universally adore them. They grow up
in the open air with all the grace Of
young. unchecked life. "The sheer joy
Of life abides in them" says he. "and
they seem to live perpetually at play
in the village street, where they play
a game of ninepins with the great seeds
of a jungle creeper; in the monastery,
where they lie upon the door and
scream out their lessons with lusty de-
light; in the river, in which they splash
and plunge before they can walk; at
the play. where they crawl about
among the feet Of the prima donna and
the posing kings, and at the pagoda,
where they hold flowers before them
with faces screwed up to gravity, with
laughter pent up behind it. And if there
be any dispute about the good looks Of
their elders there can be none as to the
prettiness Of Burmese children"

whole of this discussion cannot be
given here, of course, but an idea of
it may be gained from the following
summary of communications:
l. Prepare the soil thoroughly and
early, beginning with fall plowings.
2. Fertilize literally and judicious-
ly, carefully avoiding an excess of
nitrogen. On rich, dark, alluvial and
freshly cleared soils phosphoric acid
alone, in the form of acid phosphate,
may be applied.
3. Apply fertilizers in the drill and
bed on them. Broadcasting is rarely,
if ever, expedient.
4. Choose an early maturing and
productive variety of cotton and plant
on the beds, and as early as possible
Apply in the seed burrows 40 to Is
pounds per acre of quickly available
fertilizer, preferably 25 to 40 pounds
of nitrate of soda.
5. Reduce to final stand as quick
