THE CORK TREE. I
0fowth, STRIPPING and Preparation
s. Of Its Bark. IA

0foyvth, stripping and Preparation
Of Its Bark. Z;
The methods In vogue In barking and
harvesting the cork In Spain and Por-
tugal are pretty much the same. The
barking operation IL affected when the
tree has acquired sufficient strength to
withstand the rough handling It re-
ceiveS during this operation, which
takes place when 1t has attained the
fifteenth year Of it's growth. After the
first stripping the tree Is left in this
juvenescent state to regenerate, sub
sequent strippings being effected at In
tervals Of not less than three years,
and under this process the tree will
continue to thrive and bear for upward
OF $50 years. II the bark is not re-
moved artificially, 1t will on maturity
split and dismantle itself. This Is
caused by the fresh growth Of bark
forming underneath. d:
The cork Of the first barking IL
termed corcho bornio bornizo, or vir-
gin, cork. The cork of the second strip
ping Is called pelas, or secondary cork.
The work Of removing the bark from
the tree is performed In summer by
men, who are paid at the rate Of
52s. cd. day. The instruments used
for the work are an ak, lever and q
handsaw for the cutting Of transversal
incisions. The first process through
which the bark passes after stripping
Is that Of boiling. This Is sometimes
done In the woods, but more frequent
" in the cork factory, in large, special
" constructed caldrons, in which the
bark is left to boil for upward OF an
hour. This seething process increases
the thickness and elasticity OF the cork
and at the same time the tannin and
other feculent substances generally ex-
listing IN the bark are desiccated. Lon.

NORTH DAKOTA AT
MINNESOTA STATE FAIR

The state of North Dakota will
have one o. the best, il not the best,
exhibit Of grains, grasses, and agricul-
tural products, at the Minnesota
state fair. The exhibit has been in
the course Of preparation at the state
capitol for the past two Or three
weeks, under the direction OF Commits
sioner OF Agriculture Gilbreath, who
has lent every energy towards gather.
Ing and arranging an exhibit, which
shall be equal II not superior to, any
other that wiliSbe shown in the agri.
cultural building. Grains and grasses
are all displayed in glass cases. and
the sheaves OF the several kinds Of
grain have been artistically arranged
with g black background. The cases
are large enough to permit the grain
AMI straw to be shown together and
the straw has been stripped and
CLEANS with a bright golden color
. against the background Of black.
There will be forty cases In all Id the
exhibit, and when arranged il the
agricultural building, It will attract
much attention from all visitors who
have knowledge OF grain products and
appreciate splendid display.
The products have been gathered
/ from all parts Of the state from aver
age fields and show more clearly than
columns Of description what splendid
crops have been raised In North Da-
kota this year and the possibilities OF
the SOIL both In the Red river valley.

Slope and the western part Of the
state. There 10 one case Of alfalfa
which will appeal to those interested
in forage crops, the alfalfa being ex-
ceptionally heavy and rich. This

bilities OF North Dakota soil for rails.
