Increased Coal Production.

Statistics compiled for the Geologi-
cal Survey by Edward w. Parker, coal
mining expert of the survey, show a
remarkable increase in the total pro-
duction of coal in the United States
during 1906 over the preceding year.
The production in 1906 was Ala, 039.-
581 short tons of 1000 pounds, valued
at $512,61O,774. In 1905 the output
amounted to 392,919,341 tons, valued
at $476,756,963. The increase in guam
tity was s per cent. and in value Z
percent.
West Virginia supplanted Illinois as
the State second to Pennsylvania in
coal production, attributed chiefly to
the almost complete suspension of
mining in Illinois during all Of April
and a part of May, when the miners
and operators were in cofiict over the
wage Washington Post

DOGS in Nlnhtaowns.

An Unqualified story.

An African hunter once found a
large crocodile hanging in the fork
Of tree about ten feet from the
ground AS the place was fully half
a mile from any water, it was difficult
to account for the crocodile's strange
position. When questioned upon the
subject, the natives explained that it
was put there by an elephant. 1t
seems that when the elephants wade
into the Lake Ngami to battle the
crocodles are in the habit of worry
ing them and biting their legs. Some
times, when an elephant is annoyed
beyond endurance, It picks up its tor
mentor in its trunk, puts it among the
branches Of a tree and leaves it there.

RabbIts rhat clint and swim.

All the natural history with which
we are familiar seems to be upside
down In Australia Even the rabbits
climb and swim. Here are some GU
rious facts about them taken from
the Scientific American:
0n the continent of Australia the
rabbits by force of circumstances are
obliged to modify their mode of life.
These animals are often observed to
climb trees in search of food when
they cannot find it on the ground. In
summer sometimes enter the water,
with only their heads projecting above
the surface When they are pursued
during their migrations they swim ex-
eeedingly well, and cross the rivers

this after time, and he galloped
away and reached the house of a

what strawberries Really Are.

The pulpy portion of the straw
berry is not really a fruit or even a
berry, but it is cluster of dry seeds
slightly imbedded in a mass of pulp.
The little seeds are the true fruit.
It is surprising that the pulp en-
larges, that it does not remain small
and dry. BY some wise provision
of nature the pollen not only directly
gives life to each seed on which it
falls, but also stimulates the surround
ing portion of the receptacle (orig-
inally small and hardy to grow into
the soft, juicy and luscious form -.

Six Yeas ago this young man,
whose name is Newman, was wearing
out his life at a desk One day he
asked himself a question, Why book
keeping?" he thought. why not but
ternies?' Accordingly he bought a
farm in ancient Bexley and proceeded
to raise butterflies.
AS everyone knows, butterflies Of
the rarer species are greatly valued
by collectors who will pay well for
them. The most costly butterfly is
the purple emperor, because its habit
Of flying high over the tops Of the
trees makes it hard to catch in the
wild state. For male of this spe-
cies Mr.. Newman charges four shil-
lings, and for a female five shillings.
At this butterfly farm collectors may
find the oya, larvae, and pupae Of
many species, the prices, Of course,
varying according to the rarity of the
species. But what a delightful occu-
pation-a butterfly farm! New York

To pIouah up the missouri.


The only way to control the Missouri
River is to plough it up. That is
the opinion of C. Eacrett of Strahan,
Ia. who has unburdened his mind on
the subject of the Improvement of
that incorrigible stream, which has
been bothering him for years.
Mr.. Eacrett's plan is to plough up
the bottom of the river, and the cur
rents created thereby will do the
rest, he says, toward securing out a
channel in (which boats of the heavi-
est draught might navigate.
The Congressional committees had
never thought of this before and
the new inland waterways commits
sion, which just organized today, may
take up the idea for consideration
more or less seriously.
The Eacrett idea, to go more into
detail, is to construct a boat of light
draught, fitted out with implements
something like Ulster" plough
which is the kind used on big farms
of the west, to be fastened on long
beams that could be raised and low
cred from the stern of the boat The
boats are to ply up and down the
river, stirring up the mud and sand,
thus allowing the currents to clean
it out and make well defined chan
