Of late, however, the growing scarcity of hardwood has called attention to the despised junco tree as q possible substitute for some of the more popular woods, and the result is q surprise to those who thought the wood had no commer. cial value. Clarence A. Miller, consul at Matamoras, Mexico, has called the attention of this govern ment to the good qualities claimed for it.
 The wood sinks in water. In color it ranges from brown to black. 1t receives a high and beautiful polish, fitting it to take the place of such expensive woods as ebony and rosewood for small cabinet work. The trunks are so short and crooked that only small pieces of timber can be obtained from them. Few trunks exceed seven feet in length and eight inches in diameter. The wood is said to be admirably suited for the keys of musical instruments, jewel boxes, and other bureau cab inets, chess men, checkers, paper knives, knobs and other small turnery, inlaid work, and indeed for almost all purposes for which costly foreign woods, in small pieces, are now used.
 Many of the trees, whose woods are familiar in the lumber mark. cts, belong to large families. There are 250 members-they are called species-of, the pine family, anC they are scattered all over the northern hemisphere. The beech and the oak family have even more members, and they, too, are widely scattered. The laurel has oveI 900, the palm LOGO, while the ap pie, counting the many varieties is said to have more than 5000 But the iunco is fighting its Tiff
 battle alone on the dry slopes O Texas and Mexico, without a rela
 tive in the world.

tive Stock Market.

KANSAS CITY, Sept 4, 190S.- Cattle receipts this week amountto nearly S0,000 head, including 12,- OOO calves. The market has held up strong all week on steers, a good demand appearing coincident with the increased receipts. Cows have sold a shade lower this week, stockers and feeders steady, calves higher. Fed steers are 15 to 25 cents higher this week, several lots at $7.10 to $7.50, and grass steers are steady to 10 higher for the week. Colorado steers to killers ranged from $3.70 to $4.20, and Colorado stockers sold at $365 to 1885 fol fairly good stock, common kinds down to $3.25. Colorado cows reached $3.60, and bulk of the Panhandle and New Mexico cows this week brought $2.S0 to $3.15, with fair number of sales up to $3.35, and odd head up to $350, stockers and feeders 1925 to $410, veals up to $I00. Country demands considerably larger this week than any week before this season, and continued favorable crop weather gives promise of a still larger trade in the immediate future. This, together with an ap. parent improvement in the outlet for meats in the last two weeks forecasts a good market through this month even if receipts are heavy.
 Sheep and lamb receipts aggre gate 37,000 head this week, biggest week this season. Killing lambs are p cents lower this week, al though prime reservation lambs from Utah brought $500 Tn, same kind are now worth $5.75 Arizona lambs $500 to $5 40, rang, sheep and yearlings $390 to $4.35 ewes $360 to $3S5. The good de mand from the country this weel has served to support the marke on killing stuff, as country buyer have taken the medium class lamb away from the packers, at $4.50 t' $500, light feeding lambs $4.0I and upwards, feeding wethers ant yearlings $3 50 to $4.00 breedin ewes $3.75 to $4.25. Prospects in dicate strong inquiry from tn country for supplies right along.

Junco, 4 New Source of Hardwood.

Junco, New source or HaFuWooo.
 The junco is the missing link of the tree family. Restricted to single valley, that of the Rio Grande, in Mexico and Texas, this tree, with its small crooked trunk bristling with thorns, is little known to the outside world. It is popularly supposed to bear no leaves, flowers, or fruit, but it really bears all three.
 The minute leaves are like, the flowers very small, and the fruit is tiny berry. It is the only known representative of it's family in all the world. It is not known that the iunco ever grew anywhere outside of the valley of the Rio Grande, or that it ever had rela- lives close enough to claim kinship. Some trees, now nearly extinct, had wide range in past ages-the Big Trees of California, for ex- ample, which grew all the way to the Artic Ocean. But the junco as far as is known, has always lived in one place and has always been the same dwarfed, crooked tree that it now is.
 Except as fuel, it has not been put to use. Thousands of cords might be cut in the valley of the Rio Grande, in Mexico and Texas.

New Candidates.

Mr.. H. J. Bellilger announces
himself in this issue as a candidate
for reelection as county commission
er. =
Mr.. J. C. Folk, Jr., announces his
candidacy for Sheriff Of Bamberg
county in this issue. See his card in
our candidates column.
Col. Jno. F. Folk, who has held
the office of county treasurer for
several terms, is a candidate for re-
election. His card appears in this
issue.
Supervisor J. B. Kearse has his an
nouncement in this issue. He is a
candidate for reelection and will
again appreciate the support OF his
friends.
Solicitor James E. Davis, of Barn
well, who now holds the Office Of
Solicitor of the second judicial cir
cult, announces his candidacy for re-
election in this issue. Mr.. Davis has
held the position for two terms, being
elected over opposition each time.
Mr.. G.. B. Free announces himself
in this issue as a candidate for re-
election as Clerk of Court. Mr.. Free
has made a most excellent official,
and we have not heard of any one
who will oppose him. 1t is our Gus
tom not to comment on the records
of candidates for county offices, but
we can violate the rule with proprie-
ty in the absence of any candidates
against Mr.. Free.
H. NJ. Graham, Esq.,, announces
his candidacy for solicitor of the
second judicial circuit, which COM
prises the counties of Bamberg, Barn.
well, Hampton, and Aiken. Jas. E.
Davis, Esq, Of Barnwell, is now So
licitor, and is a candidate for re-elec-
ton. He has held the Office for eight
years. MIR. Jas. F. Byrnes, Of Aiken,
now court stenographer, is a candi-
date. Mr.. Graham has been practic-
ing his profession for II years or
more, and is fully qualified for the
position. He is very popular in this
and Barnwell counties, and his
friends will rally to his support. Mr..
Byrnes is a good friend of ours, and a
mighty nice gentleman, but Bamberg
county has never had a solicitor or
Judge, and turn about is fair play:
A few years ago G. D. Bellinger, of
Barnwell, was solicitor, and James
Aldrich, of Aiken, judge of this cir
cult. Then C. E. Sawyer, of Aiken,
was solicitor, then Jas. E. Davis, Of
Barnwell. Now Judge James AL
drich of Aiken, has retired, and
Robert Aldrich, of Barnwell, is Judge.
So we think it high time that Bam-
berg county was being recognized,
and it is nothing but right that the
solicitorship should come to this
county. We believe the voters of
| the circuit will agree with US.
