Dry Land Farming.
try Life in America

From Country Life In Antrica-
Within recent years the possibilities OF
dry land farming have begun to be realized
not only by the Department of Agriculture,
but by the various experiment stations in
the arid states.
The old rain belt was formerly considered
as limited to the area In which the average
rainfall was about twenty inches per year.
Dry land farming, however, Is now being
successfully practieed In many localities
where the rainfall ranges from eight TO
fifteen inches per year
In parts of Montana spring wheat ana
alfalfa yield large and profitable crops
without irrigation and with rainfall OF
twelve inches. Similarly in Utah dry iana
farming has yielded excellent results with
wheat barley and TO a somewhat less eN-
tent with alfalfa In the interior or oregon
there are immense areas planted to wneat
and yielding twenty to twenty-five pusheis
ner acre with rainfall not exceeding eight
inches per year.
The results obtained by the thousands ot
farmers who are engaged in this line OF
agriculture have called attention TO ths
great possibilities of dry land farming anu
have made ii apparent that there are thou.
sands of acres of land containing almost
unlimited plant food which will yield COCO
crops under system of dry land farming
and which have heretofore been cohsioerea
jrreclaimable.

Flying Turtles.
From the New York Sun.


Among the various turtles in the
AQUARIUM none attracts more attention
than the green turtle and the hawks
bill-to be seen in one of the gallery tanks
where, not seen moving about as some
turtles might be on land. but swimming
easily up and down in the wanter, and
with their fine, thin flippers used like wings.
these two sea turtles seem yeritable sea
birds.
Many people stop to look at the flying
turtles, and then they are likely to be in
terested in another thing these turtles do.
The bottom of their tank is covered with
pebbly gravel and sometimes one. or it
may be both. of the turtles will come
down and balancing themselves in the
water near the bottom bend their necks
downward and pick up pebbles out of the
gravel.
The green turtle or the hawksbill will
in its mouth for moment and then drop
1t. and then 1t win put its beak down and
pick up another 30 be dropped in moment
At feeding time when the food for the
turtles Is put into the water, at the top of
the tank, some small shreds or fragments
may fail to the bottom and settle there on
or among the pebbles, and after the turtles
have eaten all the big pieces If they get
hungry they come down and search the
gravel for the tiny fragments.
In this quest they will pick up pebble
after pebble. and taking them within their
mouths there remove whatever shred of
food might attach to them.

A Complex Lock.

From the st. Louis Post- Dispatch
Having one of these locks, 9eooo.0oo years

fastened with the wonderful new lock in

sists of four sets of twenty-four letters of

most complicated matter. Then there is the
initial problem OF which language 1t has
been keyed In, TO be solved BY the man
that attempts to open the safe. Further

Neuman Tobias, has employed four sets of

SECRET STORE CODE.
Warnings Used to Signal Presence Of
Shoplifters in Big Emporiums-

From the New York Post.
There was crowd of customers before
the womans hosiery counter. The sales
girl who said Two on ten to the clerk
next to her had been busy for twenty min
utes with a customer. a handsomely dress
ed young woman. to whom she had been
showing expensive silk hosiery.
The young woman had been more than
ordinarily difficult to please. and the space
in front of her was strewn with boxes. She
did not seem satisfied with any that were
shown her. and described several designs,
each of which necessitated more or less
search through the stock the part of
the clerk.
II was perhaps three minutes before the
salesgirl again faced the customer with
several more boxes. Still apparently dis
satisfied, the handsomely dressed young
woman examined them indifferently, thank
ed the clerk and said she would look fur
Their.
Just as she rose to go Miss Brown re-
minded Miss Smith of the new lot that had
just been received, but which had not yet
been placed in stock.
Are you sure?n asked Miss Smith
YES. l saw them" replied Miss Brown.
Just a moment; I'll ask the fioorwalker to
show them to you.
Two on ten, Miss Brown? Sure? Very
we'll This way madam. said the floor
walker, reckoning Miss Brown to follow
them.
II see her finish. remarked another of
the women customers to her companion,
noddng her head in the direction the hand
somely dressed young woman had gone. Il
used to work in a dry goods store before
got married, and it seems kind of good to
hear that familiar expression, two on ten,
again.
what does it mean? Why, two eyes on
ten fingers. That woman Twas shoplifter.
The girl suspected her, gave the signal and
had her dead to rights in no time.

CEDARS OF LEBANON.
Trees Famous in Ancient Times Now
Almost Extinct.
From Records of the Past.

From Records of the Past
The cedars of Lebanon, famed through
out Christendom because of the reference
made to them frequently in the Scriptures
and by early classical writer's we'll seem
destined to suffer the fate of other decay
ing species, such the buffalo, which
once roamed the plains in countless NUM-
bers. and the Sequoia gigantea, the giant
redwood of California, which seems doomed
to rapid extinction. The cedars of Leb-
anon belong to this class of nearly If
not quite extinguished Species but the few
remnants which still are accessible have
double interest because Of their history,
their central location and future posi-
bilities.
David. three thousand years ago Is re-
corded as having built in Jerusalem
house of wood from these trees. Through
the cooperation of Hiram. king of Tyre,
Solomon brought great RATS of cedar from
Lebanon to Joppd, ana carried the TIMBER
up the steep mountain slope to Jerusalem
for the first temple, while in the building
of the second temple, under Ezra and Nehe-
miah the same source of supply was re-
sorted TO. Ezekiel refers to the use of this
wood in shipbuilding and Isaiah for the
manufacture of idols
The principal grove of cedars now extant
consists of about four hundred trees, grow
ing in an amphitheater at the head of the
Kadisha river at an elevation of $500 feet
above the sea and only about twenty-five
miles distant from 1t. The preservation
of this group of trees is due to the sacred
character 1t is presumed to bear. The
word '.kadisha'' Is the Hebrew for holy"
The grove is now protected by a neatly
built high stone WALL and viewed from
every point, stands out like an oasis in a
desert presenting a striking contrast to the
general baroness surrounding It.
AS one stands upon the summit of Leb-
anon says Mr.. Wright. 1900 feet above
the cedars and looks down upon this an
cient grove, and his eye takes in the sites
of ancient temples on the western flank
and the vast expanse of the Mediterranean
beyond. and turning to the east. sees the
plain spread out before him, with the ruins
of Baalebek In the center. he can but feel
as never before the force of the words of
Holy Writ, All flesh is as grass, and as
the flower of the field IL perisheth.' Over
this field in successive waves have come
and gone all the great nations of antiquity
Here are the relics of the Assyrian, the
Babylonian the Egyptian the Phoenician
