The United States has an experiment farm on

ules even more marvellous than III the valley
are produced. Down on the lower levels there
are little nips of frosty nOrnnss occasionally

the breath OF frost never touches the most del

Yuma is a busy up-to-date town. The more
modern improvements consist Of several blocks
OF attractive brick buildings. three-story post
office building, also of brick and many other
nice structures. Among some CT the greater
improvements which are being made are a

ONCE A MIGHTY sFREAM.

Ages ago. when the meantain ranges Of
Arizona and, California lowered toward the
stars, at least twice as high as they do now,
rains were very frcdmert and came down in
torrcntial volumes adj along these mountain
ridges. The Colorado River ia these past ages
was mighty stream, sweeping down debris
IN tons every second of its flow. The Colora-
do sink was at that time great inland sea,
which spread over the country on both sides
Of where the river now runs. AS the erosion
of winds and storms, landslides and glaciers
wore down the mountain ridges year by year,
the great river carried down a vast amount
Of silt, erosion from the rocks full OF phos.
pilates, times and dIsintergrated GRANTEES, as
well as the vegetation along Its banksS and
this was adj deposited in what aye now the
sinks of the Colorado.
AS the nsountsiR tops were wcgn down, tAe
rains becaIne less frequent and less IN vofE72e
but the erosion OF rocks and river bGsfsS, FAe
tees and vegetable moE1d to1n fbeES sise
banks still came down and settled iE3o the
bottom of the great inland Lake. This gcogicaI
process went on. fBOfa age to age to our time,
leaving the Colorado at Yuma a stream. a bout
aalf mile wide. and being at the present
time about twenty feet deep IN the deepest
portion.
1t is not necessary to remind Californians
that the Spanish missionaries and explorers
called this river the Colorado because of the
reddish color of its waters. Et is the Colorado
up in the Grand Canyon in Arizona and
down past The Needles. But at this time of
the year. after passing the mouth of the ella,
instead of the red river it becomes the brown
river. 1t actually looks today as, if ten per
cent of its flow was silt and only ninety per
cent water.

 People who were present smiled at the little passage of arms which took place between two young ladies at a luncheon recently. One of them, a bride, shaking hands in her character isSically cordial way, said to the oth- CT: ''I'm so glad to meet you! You have afforded me so vefE much amuse- ment just lately.''
 "Amusement?'' said the other.
 "Oh, yes," went on the bride. i've been through my husbands desk and have read all his old love letters. I found several very affectionate letters from you, and I enjoyed reading them really ever so much,''
 I'm so glad you enjoyed them," re- piled the other. But do come and see me very soon. Here is my card. I have the answers to all those letters, and you might like to read them as well. Mir. Ks letters are so much more affectionate than those wrote to him. know you'll enjoy reading them ever so much more than you did mine."

rde.. From Nature.

Walking on the outskirts of Bolton one autumn evening, a clever young man became interested in watching the seeds falling from sycamore tree. He observed that they acquired TO- tary motion before reaching the ground. and, inquiring into the cause, he found that the two wings were slightly turned in opposite directions, which caused them to revolve in fall ing. The idea of making a screw pro peller on this principle at once occur red to him.
 Gaivani, . natural philosopher of Italy, was dissecting a dead frog one day while a pupil was making expert ments In electricity by his side. He observed that the muscles of the frog, being exposed, gave signs of motion whenever the, nerves came in contact with the scopel. Galvani discovered the existence of a new principle in this phenomenon and originated the fertile branch of physics known by the name of galvanism.

A corpromise.

A struggling art student, native of Pont Aven, went to Paris to study and occasionally visited an uncle there, an elderly shoemaker on the Rue Vaugi- rard The shoemaker was to be count ed on for square meal and sometimes even for a small loan. One morning the uncle welcomed the student far more warmly than was his habit.
 Just in time,'' he said, rubbing his hands. '.The kitchen door wants paint ing, and I was about to give the job to the eommissionnaire for francs. But you can have it now. I'll pay you 50. ''
 The student flushed and bit his lip- Hard up as he was, he could not so degrade his art as to paint kitchen door, Yet he needed money badly
 '.Uncle," he said, smiling as a happy thought came to him, ''Pn tell you what to do. Let the commissionnaire paint the door for 8 francs, as you had intended. and give me the francs diff ference"

Lobster Mortality HisA.

A lobster lays thousands of egp. most of which hatch, but few ever live to grow up. This is not the fault of the mother, for she carries them about with her for nearly a year and with admirable instinct guards them as she does her own life. When the young are set free her duty is done, for they must then shift for themselves. Though hardly larger than mosquitoes. being about one-third of an inch long, the little ones leave their parents on the bottom and swim toward the Hght-to the surface, where from one to two months, if fortune favors them. they lead a free, rowing life. The open sea Is poor nursery for such weddings, which become the sport of every storm and the prey of numberiess hungry mouths. Out of a brood of 10000 it would be rare chance for more than pne or two Holsters to reach maturity or finally to end their career in the kftchen or the chaflng dish--St Mich -aa
