wealth In Junsle woods.

Nearly all Of the northern and east
8ern part of Guatemala is covered with
a dense tropical forest, consisting of
mahogany, different kinds of cedar,
chicie and other hard woods. Along
streams down which logs can be float
ed much Of the mahogany has been cut,
but as yet little of the other woods
has been marketed. This is especially
true of the departments Of Peten, Alta
yerapaz and Izabal.
Most Of the forests still belong to the
government and the usual method Of
securing the timber Is by concession,
by which n certain number OF trees are
cut at given price for each tree or a
stipulated sum is paid for the timber
on given tract. 1t Is not an easy
matter to get titles to large tracts in
Guatemala, as it Is discouraged by the
government. These concessions are not
usually granted for a longer period
than five years. Sometimes 1t is stipu.
lated that IL a certain number Of trees
are cut during that time they must be
renewed.
The pine forests are limited, being In
the mountainous country principally,
and inaccessible. Most Of the lumber
used comes from the United States,
principally from California. The for.
ests of this country are generally so
inaccessible that the railroad companies
import nearly all their ties and even
import coal, because 1t ID difficult for
them TO get enough hrewood.

How to Make 1t Yield tho Most at

After the home resources In the en-.

ed it Is time to turn to commercial fer.
ftilizers to supply deficiencies, says the
Garden magazine. 1t Is n very simple
matter to spread around the trees each
year the contents of few fertilizer
bags. This is much easier than spread.

and blowing under green manure

fruit trees come to rely upon CONNER.
.cial fertilizers alone, neglecting the
other sources of fertility that have been
mentioned. This Is great mistake.
The home fruit grower should use
commercial fertilizers to supplement-
not to replace tillage. green manures
and barnyard manures. Some fruit
gardens, like some farms, are fertilizer
sick. They have been dosea with large
quantities of high-grade fertilizers, but
the humus content of the soil has not
been kept up. If fertilizers are used
and usually they must be, let them be

purchaser of commercial fertilizers is

without definite knowledge OF what the
soil needs or what they contain.

IS THUS TRUE?

The most remarkable thing about
birds, to my mind, is the wonderful
way in which they sail through the air,
which is accomplished by the pecu-
liar skeleton structure and the lifting
power that resides within the feath-
ers.
While the bones OF all other ami
mails are solid, the centre being a
cone of marrow, In birds there Is
a great lightness, with no loss of
strength, by the bones being hollow
and braced, as 1t were, by numerous
little ducts. through which heated air
is in constant circulation.
You have no doubt looked with
wonder at the hawk, buzzard and
other birds, also, as they were slid
ing through the air, with only an
occasional flap of the wing. If one
Of these sailing birds be taken and
certain experiments made 1t will be
found that the bones are not only
hollow and extremely light. but that
they are very warm to the touch.
/, If the end of the wing be Topped
off, and the birds windpipe closed.
it may still be seen to breathe. BY
this experiment we find that both
heart and lungs are directly connect
ed with the bones, and that the heart
not only pumps the blood. but air.
which it heats, through the bony
channels and feathers.
We find also the normal tempera-
ture of birds is ten degrees greater
than in mammals, and this may be
increased at least ten degrees more
at the will of the bird. =.
This produces such rarefraction Of
the air within the bones as to give
great buoyancy, and this, with the
lifting power, which have already
said resides in the feathers, gives it
It's power of fight.-Baptist Boys and

of the plough's work, and the over
hanging mouldboard was introduced
Near the close of the eighteenth cen
fury the first ploughshares were made
of cast Iron, and in 1903 there was pat
ented method for case-hardening, or
chilling, the shares.
In the United States and Canada, the
forms Of ploughs used during the pio-
neer days were necessarily heavy and
cumbersome. Roots and stones caused
the handles to be elevated. As the
field became cleared, the tendency was
to use longer beams and handles.
Although simple looking article, the
manufacture of a plough Is an intricate
proceeding. Different conditions de-
mand different sizes, shapes and styles,
and the number of patterns is great.
One manufacturer claims to have 800
different styles and sizes on his lists.
Each part of these is made from a
brass pattern. The points as a rule are
made Of special mixture of iron,
which In the mould Is given chilled
cutting edge. This Is accomplished by
placing small piece Of steel in the
mould into which the iron is poured.
Iron poured on this cools more quickly,
and Is harder than iron poured in sand
alone. From the sand the shares 60 to
the emery wheels, and the rough places
are ground of. The mould-boards,
beams. and land-sides are all made Of
steel. The temporary process takes
time and care. The red-hot steel Is SUBJ
merged In bath, kept at constant
temperature by means OF a refrigerat-
Ing machine. When the different parts
are assembled and bolted together, the
plough Is sent to the buffing wheels for
polishing. Next, the carpenter fits han.
dies to 1t, the painter gives 1t two or
three coats Of paint, and the plough is
ready for the field.
The first reaping instrument In the
worlds history was undoubtedly a
straight sword bent into curved sickle,
a form of implement destined to endure
from that date to this. With time came
Improvements. A long handle was add
ed to the curved blade, and the sickle
became scythe, which reaped all the
worlds grain until nearly 100 years
ago, when a young virginian perfected
the first really practical harvesting ma
chine. 1t was this improvement that
inspired an era of invention, that has
provided the farmer with machines to
carry on all his agricultural labor, rails
Ing him from a peasant toiling over his
sickle to prosperous man OF business,
and in few years increasing the
worlds production Of wheat by three
fold. Within ten years n company vas
turning out 1900 reapers year. In.
ventlon followed invention. Then the
great bonanza farms of 10000 and 49,
600 acres arose. and a vast demand fol-
lowed for all kinds of labor-saying ag.
ricuitural machinery. There were turn
ed out reapers, rakes and grass mowers
by the thousand. There was perfected
a self-binding harvester. which cut the
grain, bound it, tied it and dumped 1t
down in shocks Of six bundles, all prac.
tically In one operation, and finally
there was produced the marvellous

Amongst the witnesses before the
committee of the House on merchant
marine and fisheries We're several who
claimed to be members of organized
labor. These witnesses We're evidently
brought forward, and probably paid to
appear, by those interests who are try
ing to get n favorable report from the
committee on the ship-subsidy bill, for
they gave evidence in favor of the
measure. But now comes President
Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor and declares that these "wlt-
nesses did not represent any labor
organization" He opposed the bill as
1t required American labor to be con-
scripted into the navy in order to get
employment.

GIFTS HARD TO DODGE.

In writing the "Recollections" Of the
royal family of Germany in the time
Of an earlier generation. the Princess
Cntharlne Radziwill gives some impress
sions which Christmas made upon her
juvenile mind. They may prove not
wholly unpleasant reminders to chill
5dren of less exalted station in life.
On the twenty-sixth day Of Decem-
Der the empress appeared at my moth
er-in-law's, accompanied by her daugh-
ter, the Grand Duchess of Baden, and
brought with her an enormous bag
filed with various trlfes, which she
distributed among us as Christmas
presents.
These occasions were dreaded by ev-
erybody, as anything more hideous than
the knickknacks which the poor EN-.
press used to bring could hardly be
imagined.
The fact was that she never gave us
pretty things, and on this particular
Christmas, the first in my experience
when l was admitted among the re-
cipients of her bounty, remember hay
Ing been scared by the sight Of IN ap.
palling thermometer in green bronze,
representing the Column of Victory In
Berlin, which in itself is hideous
monument.
As my Ill luck would have it, was
made the unhappy recipient of this
monstrosity, and never could get rid
OF 1t In after life. No matter where
l moved, the dreadful thing followed
me. 1t would not get broken, or lost,
or even mlslaid; 1t was Impossible to
give 1t to bazaar, and 1 expect that
one day 1t will turn up again from one
of my boxes. when least expect 1t.
The presents of the queen remind me
of an adventure which befell one Of
them. and caused my poor mother-in-
law some sleepless nights. She had re.
ceived for birthday present from tile
empress table in white china, orna.
mented by her majesty herself with
paintings Of the kind called decalco.
mania. 1t was anything but beautiful,
and was Mt once relegated to dark
corner Of the apartment, whence 1t
emerged only when the good Augusta
was expected
This kind of thing lasted for about
two years, when Mt last my mother-in.
law thought she might venture to dis
pose Of the ugly thing my giving 1t to
a bazaar held in her own house. She
carefully waited until the empress had
paid 1t a visit, and then, feeling sure Of
impunity, sent 1t there.
S AS 1t happened, the emperor appear
ed the next dny, and after having been
taken round the room. was at once
caught by the unfortunate table, and
in spite of frantic efforts made by my
sister-in-law to prevent him, he pro.
ceeded to buy it as u present for the
