FLOWERS FED ON DRUGS.
Medical Potions Administered to Plants to Force Their
 Growth.

Experiments in the horticultural dc. partment of Cornell university are said to have demonstrated the fact that plants can be, forced to grow with the aid of drugs, and can be made to ma- ture in far less time than 1t takes to develop naturally. says the Indinapo- lis State. The plants are fed on ether or other medical potion for 24 or 36 hours. until they are thoroughly per- neated with the fumes. Then they grow with the greatest rapidity. Easter lilies treated thus have put out mag nificent blooms fin night. and narcis- sus flowers have doubled their size af- ter few hours treatment.
 Could anything be more dreadfuli Could there be any more effective way of destroying the sentiment that be- longs to flowers? As 1t is now. the forcing process of the hothouse, which increases the size of blossoms. but adds correspondingly to the natural frasility. and in many cases lessens their original fragrance. takes some- thing from the spiritual charm that belongs by right to those stars that in earth's Armament do shine" and that everyone feels in some measure.
 Flowers are words that even c child may understand" says a poet: and George Eliot asks: "Is there not a soul beyond utterance. half nymph. half child. in those delicate petals which glow and breathe about the cen- ters of deep color?" Flowers have . language of love and hope and cheer: they preach to us If we will hear"

Another highly important use to
which the almost human device will
be put before another year rolls
around will be It's attachment TO hop

position to save the farmers thous-
ands of dollars in possible loss from
fire. A portable hop kiln, built upon
scientific lines but small scale, has
been constructed and II will be taken
around through the country to give
the hop growers a practical illustra-
tion OF its usefulness. II can also
be used to great advantage in hotels
where thermostat can be placed in
every room and department in the

NEW FIRE
ALARM
SYSTEM
Salem Will Have Little Auto
:Hatic Guardians
On Watch

When the State Agent company,
under the local agency of Il. b.
Gamble, complete the installation OF
the automatic fire alarm system Sa-
lem will have been provided with
one of the best projections against a
serious outbreak of fire of any city
on the Pacific coast. Good progress
is being made In the stringlng OF
wires and the making of prepara-
tions for the setting OF public break
the-glass fire alarm boxes and Mr..
Gamble hopes to have the system
ready for practical operation before
the first of the year. Besides the
public boxes nearly every business
house in the city will have been sup
piled with private automatic fire
alarms as a consequence OF which the
fire insurance rates will have been
reduced TO an extent sufficient to
more than offset the cost OF the
service.
Under the contract or agreement
by which the system is to be in
stalled the company will provide 10
public alarm boxes but two extra
ones have already been ordered since
the council ordered the system in
stalled and II quite probable that
at least twenty or thirty more boxes
will be placed when other loops,
which are now under consideration.
are built. The fifteen boxes will be
located. according to the present

lar system of signals and numbers,
when an alarm is turned in 1t will
be possible for the department to
know upon the instant the exact To-
cation of the confiagration and can
respond to the call without NOM
ent's delay.
Every instrument will be also con-
nected with the fire bell which is
now located In the tower of the city
hall but the bell, the tones Of which
are now muffied on account of be-
ing confined to the tower, will be
taken out and placed upon a high
platfrom tower in order that there
will be no obstruction whatever to
the vibrations. When an alarm is
turned in from one of the public
boxes the signal will be repeated
four distinct times on the big fire
bell and when an alarm comes In
from one of the private thermostats
the alarm will continue to sound un-
til the department arrives and dis
connects the instrument.
The instruments can be set to any
degree Temperature and when the
heat or cold arrives at degree
above or below the limit the sensi-
tive metal bar moves over to one
side of the other until an electrical
connection is made and the current
does the rest. There Is thousand
and one uses to which the little de-
vice can be put among the most i'm
portant OF which is It's attachment
to the sprinkling system, especially
adapted to woodwork establishment,
factories, ETC., to regulate the water
supply of boilers to prevent explo-
sions: brick kiln thermostats and
dial to register the temperature on
the inside at all times, a great fuel
saver and maker of a better quality
OF brick; and a special round style
of thermostat made especially for
vessels to be used in the hold and
among the cargo to warn the ships

When the South Salem loop of
wire is strung, which will be a mile
in length more than score of pri-
vate and public boxes and ther-
mostats will be connected. and there
is scarcely a question of doubt that
the state will order the system in
stalled in the asylum, penitentiary
and blind school and a separate loop
will have to be provided for these
accommodations.
The themostat fire alarm system is
adapted to any and all kinds of pro-
lection against loss of life or prop
erty by this element since It Is regu-
lated solely by the action OF the tenn
perture and so delicate and sensi-
tive are the workings OF the simple
little instrument, which consists only
OF small metal case and a highly
sensitized composition metal bar
which expands and contracts accu-
rately and without failure with every
degree OF heat and cold. that failure
to turn in an alarm is a practical
impossibility.
The headquarters of the State
Agent company, which have been es-
tablished on Liberty street between
Court and Chemeketa, are equipped
with every style of instrument and
device to which the simple yet i'm
pressive and mysterious little piece
OF machinery can be attached or ap-
piled and the uses to which II can be
adapted are simply marvellous. When
the city alarm system has been COM

time.
The willamette Juniors have

home by midnight. He said that he
had a magnificent peach orchard, and
that the peaches were dropping off the
trees and rotting on the ground. and
that he would send any of them all
that they wanted If they would pay the
express charges. This caught lot of
the boys who had fine mouths for
peaches, and he collected quite a sum
from them for express charges. He
also said that his son was an officer in
the United States Navy, and In the
course of his voyages had gathered up
a lot of parrots in Africa. which he
would be glad to send to any of the
comrades If they would pay the ex-
press charges. He raked in some more
on this score, and skipped out leaving
a hotel bill unpaid. He next showed up
at Marietta. with a story of having sold
his farm at Akron. and wanted to buy
another in the quieter regions of the
Ohio River. He struck a comrade who
is in the real estate business. and work
ed him for a small amount, and then
started out for Ironton, O.. where he
repeated his performances. and was
