THE DANDELION.
Bright little dandelion,
Downy, yellow face,
Peeping up among the grass
With such gentle grace;
Winding not the April wind,
Blowing rude and cold;
Brave little dandelion,
With heart of gold.
Meek little dande1ion
Changing into curls
At the magic touch of these
Merry boys and girls.
When they pinch thy dainty throat
Strip thy dress of green,
On thy soft and gentle face
Not cloud is seen.
Poor little dandelion
Now all gone to seed,
Scattered roughly by the wind
Like common weed.
Thou hast lived thy little life
Smiling every day;
Who could do better thing
In better way?

The secretary of interior recently let
the contracts for the largest irrigation
reservoir dam in the world.
1t Is to be called the Roosevelt dam.
Near 1t is new town, also called
Roosevelt. Both are situated in Ari-
Eona, about seventy miles above Phoe-
nix, on the Salt River near Its junction
with Tonic Creek.
The dam is the main feature Of one
of the largest of the government irri-
CATION projects. 1t Is located in a can
yon Of the Salt River, Just below Its
Junction with the small tributary
above named. 1t will be 27O feet high,
210 feet long, 1GJ feet thick at the
base. and 16 feet wide on top.
This dam will create lake twenty
hve miles long and between a mile and
half aud two miles in width-the
largest artificial reservoir In the world.
1t will be constructed of broken range

built will be quarried from the walls
on each side of the canyon. 1t Is CON

power thus developed runs cement

digging, etc, for the construction of
the dam.
The cement mill is located about
1900 feet from the dam site, and has
been equipped with all the most mod.

within mile from the mill, and one
corner of the mill stands on bed of
limestone. which is one of the prin-

WAS FOND OF BLACKBERRIEs


In my early days in the wilderness
of Indiana l used to see many wild
animals and got accustomed to their
ways. 1t always seemed to me that
there was more of human nature and
fun in bear than in any other ami
taken young. Nearly every pioneer
in early days had pet bear at one
time or another. We always had one
on our farm. remember one that
used to amuse us more than dog or
house full of kittens. He stayed
with us for nearly two years. l will
tell you some of his tricks, and then
now we finally lost him.
We had grapevine swing on the
edge of the hill. We children used to
take hold of this vine and, drawing
it back, to the brow of the hill. swing
clear out over the valley. fifty feet
or more, perhaps. 1t was great fun,
and finally the bear would swing win
us. He would clutch the vine with
his fore paws. hump up his hind legs
with the agility of monkey. Once
the vine slipped from the limb and
the bear was Jared loose. He fell
with tremendous bump against the
opposite bank. He rubbed himself
and whined like baby, and we had
to pet and pity him before he got into
good humor again.
This bear was very fond of black
berries. but he much preferred that
somebody else should pick them for
him. l was out picking berries one
day and had filed the tin pail. The
bear was along and was picking his
own berries. Finally firing of this,
however, and while 1 was of guard.
he stood on his hind feet, reached
up, and with one forepaw knocked
the pail out of my hand and spilled
all the berries. He pounced on those
on the ground and ate or smashed
them all. He was too burly for me
to punish him, but got my revenge
in an unexpected way. On an over
hanging limb there was great nest
of hornets. l could throw. in those
days, like boy. took small stick
and stepping behind heavy tree
trunk, threw at the nest of hornets
and hit 1t resounding jolt. Instant
ly the hornets swarmed out in great
anger.
Almost Immediately under them
was the bear eating my blackberries.
l kept well behind the tree. and see
ing no one else that could have done
the mischief the hornets settled on
the bear and began to sting him un-
mercifully. First he looked hurt IN
his feelings; then he brushed at the
hornets with his feet. This only
made matters worse, and hornets by
the hundreds went at him like bullets.
Finally they made things SO hot for
him that he started to run, but he
could not run fast enough to get
away from his pursuers, and they
kept after him, making his life bur-
den. Finally l saw him start for the
river. The water ran between steep
banks. Without pausing an instant
on the bank the bear leaped from it
INTO the deep water, and there sup
pose he finally got rid of the hornets.
When he came up out of the water ne
didn't come back to the near bank.
but swan across the stream. climbed
up the opposite bank and trotted Off
into the woods. shaking his head in
mournful sort of way that almost
made me sorry. That was the last
we saw of him. Perhaps he thought
life would be happier in the wild
state. for he never came ilome-In-
