MONTERREY CYPRESS AN
INTERESTING TREE

One Of the most interesting and
picturesque trees in the world, as well
as one Of the most ancient, is the Cy-
pressus macrocarpa, or Monterey cy-
press. It's native habitat is extremely
restricted for it is found in its wild
state in only two spots in the whole
wide World-on the edge Of a grove
of conifers stretching for a few miles
between the Bay of Monterey and the
Bay of Crmel (the latter of which
bears a striking resemblance in out
line and color to its prototype in the
Holy Land) and in similar spot near
Pescadero, a little town lying on the
coast between Monterey and San Fran
cisco. The Monterrey grove consists
of only a dozen or two expresses Of
large size and most striking appear
ance. Their trunks are massive and
wrinkled with hoary age, while their
boughs, gnarled and twisted, grow
chiefly on one side, away from the
stormy winds that have buffeted them
for thousands of years The noble
trees are limited to the rocky. wind
beaten shore, on which some of them
have but a precarious hold. Hem
med between the slowly encroaching
ocean on one hand and a pine forest
on the other, their future is exposed
to great hazard. 1t is. therefore, graf
flying to observe that fair number of
thrifty young expresses are holding
their own against the pines for a short
distance inland.-Scientifi American.

HUNTER HAS DESPERATE
FIGHT WITH PANTHER

New Westminster, 3 C.-Panthers
are reported to be plentiful close to
the little town of Alberni, several
having been killed there during the
past few days by parties of huntsmen.
on Sunday evening Constable Steph-
enson, returning from a grouse hunt,
was confronted by a huge panther,
which leaped from the bushes and
attacked his dog, which was about
twenty feet ahead of its master. The
dog escaped, whereupon the beast ad-
vanced on Stephenson, who fired
charge OF bird shot full in the face
OF the panther. The animal turned
a complete somersault. then again
rushed towards the constable, but
second charge emptied in its shoulder
discouraged further attentions, and
the beast escaped into the jungle. A
few hours later it was treed and kill
ed by a party of hunters.

FARMERS SAY DANDELIONS
INCREASE YIELD OF MILK

Many farmers believe that dande-
lions increase the yield of milk and,
consequently, that the presence of
dandelions in pastures and meadows
is rather desirable than otherwise A
Belgian Investigator, j. P. Wagner,
has shown the incorrectness of this
opinion which, he says, is founded
wholly on a false analogy, suggested
by the milky Juice of the dandelion.
According to Wagner, the presence of
dandelions in large numbers in pas
lures exerts very deleterious effect
on the quality Of the butter and is one
of the numerous causes of the diff
Guilty of making butter of fine flavor
and good keeping qualities in spring
and early summer The presence of
large quantities of dandelions in hay
has similar effect. Hence Wagner
advises farmers to weed their pas
lures. whenever it is practicable to do
so.-Scientific American.

BAD TANGLE IN
GOVERNMENT LAND

North Yakima, Wash.-Governme
land valued at $4,000 which was re-
Gently restored for homestead entry
under the Prosser extension, was the
cause OF great rush which has re-
suited In tangle in the land office
which will take some time to straight
en- out. The choice pieces Of land in
this extension were picked up last
Friday and Saturday before the re-
storation was generally known. When
the fact was published the rush began
and before 8 o'clock yesterday morn
ing over a score Of people were on the
ground, almost all trying to obtain
prior rights on a particularly valuable
40,
Among those present were six men
from North Yakima, who complied
with the law by viewing the land and
then hurried to Sunnyside and secur-
ed water rights. They then came to
North Yakima by train and made en-
try on their tracts today. They found,
however, that prior entry had been
made on each tract, but as there was
a question of priority all were permit
ted to make second filings.
The question Of priority arose be-
cause Of the fact that a party of 10 |
found out the day before that this land |
was open. Not having time to go to
to file for water rights they
sent telegram to Assistant Secretary
Smith Of the Water Users association
and had him come to North Yakima.
They paid him their fees for the water
rights for which he gave them re-
ceipts, and then they went over to the
land office and filed on the land. They
were first in the land office, but the
others claim that they have not COM
piled with the law with regard to
viewing the land and securing their
water right certificates.

DIR. ABBOTT ON MIRACLES.
Tells Yale Men Me Believes No Force
of Nature Was Ever Suspended.

The Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott, OF
New York city, Sunday praised foot
ball, and declared in a sermon in the
Yale college chapel that he did not
think that the forces of nature ever
had been suspended to allow single
miracle, to be performed.
DR.. Abbott spoke on the text, God
is love-" He asserted that the end of
life was character, not railroads and
skyscrapers, and that true character
could not be formed without hard
ship and suffering. On the same
ground, courage must follow actual
peril. and If the football field makes
courage, the peril of the game is. he
pleaded, ignorance Of the actual
amount Of accident and death re-
corded in the sport.
Science" he said, takes a ra-
tional order for granted. 1t discovers
that order. Religion takes for grant,

BRAZILIAN SOCIETY DESIRES
TO PURCHASE SHEEP

The Societe Financiere Franco-Bres-
lienne, of Sac Paulo, through the state
government. is seeking for certain ia
vors from the federal congress for the
importing of 5000 sheep and several
rams for breeding purposes. The Bra
lillian Review states that the animals,
in the event of the favors being grant
ed, will be placed on a farm belonging
to the company. Sheep breeding has
so far not played very large part in
the agricultural life of the state, and
the various wool factories have been
obliged to import their materials
from other states. The Societe Finan-
clere Franco Bresilienne, with its ac-
customed energy, is apparently deter
mined to supply their demand from

improvements Please Colony.
Washington, d. C.-The annual re-
port of Gov. w. Z. Frear of Hawaii,
declares while there has been in the
past a widespread feeling that the
territory has received little attention
in return for the $10,2S0, 600 customs
receipts and $456,67S in internal rev.
enue it has paid into the federal
treasury, the feeling has been largely
dlspelled by liberal appropriations by
Congress for Honolulu and Hilo har-
bors the Pearl Harbor naval station
fortifications, etc.
A suspension of the laws affecting
trade between Hawaii and the main
land for six years is recommended,
and the need of road improvements
is urged

JOHN H. ADAMS BUILDS
 UP A NEW INDUSTRY

Thomas Iron company of Pennsylvania and president of the First National bank of Catasanqua.
 By-Products.
 The matter of waste products of coal mining industries and of iron furnaces in this district has agitated the minds of op- orators ever since the beginning of this development. What should be done with it?' has been the puzzle. Slate and schale from mines, slag and cinders from fur naces, have multiplied each week and every year until the matter of handling and haulage has become a seriously ex- pensive proposition.
 An interested public need not be sur prised to observe a solution of this prob- lem within a short time. A solution which will mean that there is immense value in this waste and it may have been left to the Sayre company to demonstrate this value.
 On a visit to England few years ago MT. Adams observed a valuable utilization of these waste substances by converting slate and schale, mixed with clay and sometimes l5oalin, which here also abound into beautiful terra cotta facings. Cities in the midst of the mining section of England were aiding individuals in the es- tablishment of plants for this purpose He saw many once unsightly piles utilized and transformed into articles useful and beautiful. He cites the lower court build ing at Birmingham, England, one of the most beautiful buildings in that country, as one partially built of terra cotta blocks in handsome bas relief, with alegorical and other figures ornamenting same all manufactured from these waste products which constituted unsightly piles.
 Mir Adams says he has advocated such utilization in this district for some years, and that his company proposes to under take in a small way to demonstrate theS value of each proposition. He also be- lieves that no better road building ma terial can anywhere be found, and that the presence here of these commodities in their natural state, as well as in the by product form, should render public road building cheaper and better in this dis trict than anywhere else in America.
 It is a well-known fact patent to every observer, that these mine and furnace waste piles are plots upon landscapes; and in England he saw the grounds which they once occupied transformed into beau full gardens and grass plots.

Of the smaller commercial companies the Stouts Mountain Coal and Coke com- pany has been one of the most success full. This concern owns 2oO0 acres of coal lands in Cullman county and operates one mine at Stouts mountain in that county.
 This mine has been in operation for nine years, and gives steady employment to 15Oo men. A fine quality of steam and do- nestle coal is produced, and despite the unusual dullness in the coal market has experienced a fair demand. The present capacity of the mine is 500 tons per day.
