GLASS AND SUNLIGHT.

Common clear glass left exposed in
certain desert regions of the earth soon
changes greatly in appearance and ac-
quires color, sometimes rose purple and
sometimes amethyst. This change has
been attributed by some observers to
alkaline soils, but others maintain that
such changes occur where there is no
alkali and that it must be due to the
great activity of the actinic rays OF the
sun where the atmosphere is very clear

Chas. n. Lilly Co. Expanding.

A few days ago the announcement
was made that the Chas. H. Lilly Co.,
for several years past Lilly, BOgardus
& Co.. of Seattle. had purchased the
business of the Rogge e StOrp firm in
Portland, Ore and had also opened a
branch house at San Francisco. The
Chas. Fl. Lilly Co. hardly need any in
production to our readers, being eX-
tensive advertisers in our columns.
The business in Seattle is still being
conducted under the name of Lilly,
Bogardus & Co., but after July LIST the
name will be the Chas. Fl. Lilly Co.
The Portland house, however, starts
in under the new name, and is under
the management of Mr. Gushing. who
has long been connected with the firm
in Seattle The house of Royce &
Storp has been in business in Portland
for a score of years and has built up
an extensive business, being located
at the corner of Front and Taylor
streets. This location is handy to
boats and cars, and the new owners
state that they shall carry there
full line of poultry supplies, seeds, fer
tilizers. stock foods, etc., the same as
they do in Seattle.
Our more than 1000 readers in Ore
gon and Idaho will be pleased to know
that this popular firm has arranged
to give thet the same advantages in
every particular as are enjoyed by
those ranchers and poultry raisers
whose section is tributary to Seattle.
By having their own warehouses in
Portland and carrying a complete
stock of everything in their different
lines the firm can fill orders promptly
and save customers large items OF
freight charges.
Mr.. Lilly desires us to tell our read
ers that they are welcome to make
their headquarters at the Portland
house of the firm when visiting the
Lewis and Clark exposition this sum-
mer.

Our idea of dairying in this Western
country is that every farmer who can
should milk from ten to a dozen COWS,
or all that he can accommodate on
his ranch without the employment of
extra hired help. We have seen
good many fifty-cow dairies fail be-
cause the owners thought they could
employ hired hands to milk and feed
the COWS and trusted that the bust
ness would be satisfactorily conduct
ed. The little dairy herd on small
farm handled by the farmer and his
family and requiring only an addi-
tional hour out of the field each morn
ing and evening will repay every care
full painstaking man. The dairy
should become a permanent and lead
ing industry on each farm rather than
to occupy the whole time and atten-
ton of the farmer engaged in the bust
ness.

name of some breeder of White Hol-

what is wanted.

later the order came to run the card
four times more. They had regis

The second illustration relates to
Blanchard's Poultry Book. The col
umns of The Ranch have been crowd
ed with advertising for several months
past, and to give as much reading
matter as possible the publishers cut
down the advertisement of the POul-
try Book to the minimum. Orders were
coming in regularly, but it was be-
1ieved that if the space given to adj
vertising the book were increased
there would be a proportionate in
crease in orders. The last issue of the
paper contained an illustrated adver-
tisement occupying seven inches of
space-and the result was that the
orders for the Poultry Book have been
almost four times as many during the
past fortnight as previously.

The Geo. n. Pierce Co, Buffalo, N. T.,
makers of the Pierce Great Arrow auto
mobiles, is offering $1,000 in prizes to
those who will submit designs and color
schemes for their new automobiles.
There is an offer of three sets of first
and second prizes: First, for the best
design of a body for an enclosed car;
second for the best design of a body
for a touring car, and third, for the
best color scheme for any motor car.
The Pierce people believe that the body
of the auto and it's color should have
more attention than they are receiving,
hence this contest. The contest closes
