Coal in Oregon.
Coal mining has been followed in
Oregon for the last half century 1t
was enc of the very first sections OF
the great mineral West to open up
productive coal mine. These mines,
located near Marshdeld, on Coos bay,
are still producing. AS early as 1850
the mines of Coos bay shipped their
coal by schooner to San Francisco.
These mines are still beyond reach OF
the railroads and are still shipping by
water; however, the output, which
was then $4,000 tons yearly. has In
creased to more than five times that
amount.

A SeedIesS PersimmOn.

The latest sensation in the seeGless
fruit line reported at Washington is
seedless persimmon. The officials
of the Department of Agriculture tie
other day received visit from MI
John II. Drury, who brought with him
a specimen of seedless native persim-
mons from his place near the national
capital.
The general impression is that the
seedless persimmon is either non-ex-
istent or nearly so in this country. A
seedless variety of this fall luxury is
not, however, a new thing, but, on the
other hand, number of trees are scat
tered throughout the South bearing
seedless persimmons. Seedless speci-
mems are occasionally found in the big
Japanese variety and they are rather
rare and the flavor is nothing to be
compared to the native sort.
A number of instances are known by
the officials of the Bureau of Plant In
dustry Of solitary persimmon trees
bearing seedless fruit, but when pollen
from other persimmon trees in the
neighborhood is brought in contact
with the flowers of the seedless sort
the resultant fruit will be full of seed
The fruit brought to the Department
Of Agriculture by Mr.. Drury proves to
be little smaller than the average
native persimmon. The specimens
when cut across were absolutely seed
less and while the fruit was compare
lively small it had really more meat

years of excessive insect damage the
shortage may amount to so per cent.
The annual shortage Of 10 per cent. is
a low estimate, which is more often
exceeded. than fallen below, and indi-
Gates at current farm prices a money
loss of $500,000, ,000-the minimum
yearly tax which insects lay on the
products OF the farm. This estimate,
however, does not include the damage
caused to farm products in storage,
such as cereals and forage crops and
to natural forests and forest products,
assigning at least $100000,000 to each
of these two items. The total annual
tax then chargeable to insects is
500, 900 900 annually.
The item of loss from insect damage
not only includes the actual destruc-
tion or injury to crops, but the esti-
mate must also include very import
ant item-the amount of money de-
voted to insect control. This amounts
to a very considerable percentage of
the value of the crop in the case of
orchard fruits, truck crops and such
field crops as cotton and tobacco. For
instance in estimating the losses due to
the codling moth it has been shown by
figures of the Department of Agricul-
pended in spraying apple trees, allow
ing a cost of only 5 cents per tree.
The cost of gassing and spraying citrus
fruit trees ranges from cents to $1.50
per tree. Another source of loss is
that occasioned by a diminution of GER
tain crops such as wheat or cotton.

INSECT DEpREDATIONS.
GUY ELLIOTT MITCHELL.

Farmers of the United States in ad-
dition to county, State and national
taxes, probably pay much heavier
toll than they do to all three of the
above The tax collector in this latter
case is one which is merciless and
overbearing, paying no attention what
ever to the necessities or obligations OF
the agriculturist each year, calling for
his dues unremittingly, and gloating
over the misfortunes Of his tenant.
The tax collector in this case, however,
is the insect. The losses resulting
from the depredations of insects on
all plant products Of the soil, both in
their growing and in their stored state,
together with those on livestock, ex-
ceed the entire expenditures of the Ma
tional Government, including the PEN
sion roll, and the maintenance Of the
army and the navy. Enormous as is
the total value of all farm products of
this country it often would be much
greater were it not for the injurious
work of insects. According to figures
compiled by the Department Of Agri-
culture the estimate is made that the
total value of farm products during the
last year amounted to $4,000, 900, 900.
The Bureau of Entomology, of the
Department of Agriculture, being fa-
miliar with the work of the important
insect pests, estimates the probable
shortage due to insect damage at
minimum Of 10 per cent, while in

THE FIRE ENGINE DRYER.
There May be Better Drivers or
Earth, but if There Are, Where
Ara Thav2

Is there a better driver in the world
than the man who drives the fire en-
gine? If there is, he is yet to be dis
covered.
Here was an engine coming along
a cross street, to turn up an inter-
secting avenue. Under the edge Of the
rounded-off corner where the machine
was to turn there was a sewer opening,
with the street pavement sloping down
smoothly toward it all around from the
higher general level of the street.
If the driver, coming as he was at a
dead gallop, should make broad turn
around this corner, out where the
street was level, the engine would
swing more or less, thus checking the
horses speed, and there would be a
second or two lost before they could
get the load Strengthened and get under
full headway with it once more, up
the avenue. But if the driver could
make that corner with the two wheels
on the inner side of the curve down
in that sloping depression leading to
the sewer opening close by the curb,
and the two outside wheels on the
higher level nearer the middle Of the
street, the higher level here would be
for the engine what the banked up
outer rail is for the locomotive round
ing curve, making it so he wouldn't
lose an inch. And that's the way he
did make it.
Before he knew it a man who had
been standing at the edge Of this cor
ner, waiting to see the engine go by,
saw it so near to him and pushing in
so close to him that he could have
touched it. The driver, aloft in his
high seat leaning inwards as he was,
too, actually hanging over him as the
engine passed, with whistle screaming
and steam Kissing, and that driver, as
he flung 'em in this fashion round this
curve, was talking low to his horses
and calling on 'em each by name-a
man absorbed If there ever was one.

the leafworm, while many other in
sects infiict minor damage. Without
counting the losses due to the latter
class of depredators we have total
loss of more than S40,000,000 charge
able to the three important insect
pests of cotton.
Vegetable and other truck crops are
especially subject to insect injury, and
furthermore in the case of these crops
there is always large expenditure
for the control of insects. The orchard
and smaller fruits suffer heavier loss
from insect pests, both directly and be-
cause of the expensive methods of
treatment necessary to prevent still
greater losses. There are several hun
dred insects which depredate on the
roots, trunk, foliage and fruit of the
apple. The important pests are the
woolly aphis, injuring the roots; the
trunk and limb borers, the leafworms,
canker-worms and tent caterpillars,
and the various scale insect pests, in
cluding the San Jose scale. Injuring
the fruit are the codling moth, the
cuculio, and the apple maggot
The insect losses to other deciduous
fruits are quite as heavy as in the
case Of the apple and especially when
the treatments for the San Jose scale
and other scale pests are considered;
and in the case of citrus fruits the cost
of treatment is much greater and the
actual losses again heavier.
Forests-especially planted forests OF
artificially wooded areas on farms
pay toll to numerous borers, which

A shortage of a finished product such
as flour, cotton or fabrics, may mean
a corresponding loss to transportation
companies and to shippers. In other
words shortage in an important pro-
duct starts train of losses to the
end of the chapter, the total amount
of which is quite beyond calculation or
estimate.
Cereals Damaged Most.
The cereals suffer most from insect
damage, the yearly amount of loss ag-
gregating $500 900 900. The leading
cereal crop of the United States, of
course is king corn, with value last
year of $1,216,000, 900. While corn is
less subject to insect damage and
wheat next, the most important cereal,
which is the corn product, would be
considerably greater were 1t not for
important insect pests. The corn root
worm causes an annual average loss
of at least per cent of the crop or
some $40, 100000. The next most i'm
portant insect pest of this cereal is
the bollworm or earworm. This In
sect. according to the Bureau of Ento'
mology, probably attacks from 80 tc
100 per cent. of the ears of sweet corn

a loss of an additional $2O, 900, 900, or

THE ARTIFICIAL LIFE.
Consists in Part in Eating Adulter-
ated and Injurious Foods.

The State Board of Health Of Massa-
chusetts has had chemical analyses
made of prepared foods and the report
of the Board shows what we really eat
in the course of everyday life. When
we use pepper, we also get ground
nutshell and fruit stones with little
pepper mixed in. Mustard consists
chiefly of wheat -four and turmeric,
this latter is an East Indian saffron
colored root with an acrid and pungent
taste. When we use lime juice we get
little of the juice with 40 to 63 per
cent. water, the whole preserved with
sulphurous, salicylic or benzoic acid
Ale is preserved with salicylic acid
also porter and likewise beer; "pure
Vermont, maple syrup Is nothing more
than cane syrup. Canned clans are
preserved with boric acid.
While this revelation of the Massa-
chusetts authorities Is something aw-
full to contemplate, yet we are stag
gered by further report of the Board
which shows that an enterprisine
chemist has discovered that the odor
of spoiled eggs can be neutralized
through the addition of formaldehyde
Since this discovery number of es-
adjustments have Ell tered into the
business of collecting bad eggs, treat
ing them with formaldehyde and SELL
ing the mixture to bakers, who use il
in cake and other foods sold to the
public. While the addition of formal
dehyde utterly destroys any bad odor
the process renders the eggs extremely
hurtful to the human system. Form
erly the mixture of bad eggs was sold
TO leather manufacturers but since
this later discovery the price of mixed
eggs has risen from 10 cents per cast
to more than q dollar.

| losses from depredations of this insect
on wheat in single States have ranged
between $10,000,000 and $20,000,000 in
one year. A very reasonable average
annual estimate of loss, taking the
country as a whole, would indicate
about $20,O00,000 a year chargeable to
this insect While in some years the
damage caused by Hessian fly is enor-
nous, taking the average of ten years,
the loss to the wheat crop caused by
this bug has value of SAC, 900, and
so on, numerous other insects and
pests lay toll on the wheat crop of the

tive work the wheat crop of the coun-
try this year would be 20 per cent.
greater.
Insect Damage to Hay.
Hay and forage crops are damaged
by numerous insects to an extent of
about 10 per cent. The cotton crop is
reduced through the agency of the
