1865. The enormously valuable depos-
its Of copper In Montana have all been
discovered and developed since 1865.
Michigan's, though known before then,
have also been mainly developed in
side of 40 years. SO have the great
iron deposits of Michigan, the zinc
deposits Of Missouri and countless beds
of mineral wealth eof all sorts in the
south and in the almost boundless
ns-Mississippi regions.
Secretary Seward knew that there
was almost fabulous treasure under
the surface Of what was called Rus
sian America when he bought it from
the cars government, but the gold
and silver and other mineral wealth
OF Alaska has practically all been
found and developed within the last
ten years. In 40 years the addition

to billions on the back Of billions.
Petroleum was discovered before

Then, as the old heads remember
very well, there was no steel highway
linking the coast of the Atlantic with
the coast of the Pacific. Then there
were three ways by which one wish
ing to travel from New York or Bos-
ton or Washington, to San francisco
or Portland, could do so: Overland by
combination Of rail to the Missis-
sippi, and stage coach and horseback
westward from the river, a journey 70
curing many days; by steamer or
sailing ship around the Horn. a Voy-
age Of months; or by steamer to the
Isthmus Of Panama (they called It
Darien, them across on the Panama
railroad, and thence by steamer again
up the coast to San Francisco.
1t cost several hundred dollars to

In ancient times Apollo received the

Various customs, all containing the

countries. In Scotland, when the

Wheat. according to both sacred and
secular history, was the most impOr-

Instead Of the usual method the reap

throshing Moor, where II Was trodden

was reaped In the usual way and

always employed to separate the
wheat from the straw.
