WHO RULES THE ARR

II dirigible balloons and aeroplanes

tionize warfare far more than did the
mitrailleuse on land or the monitor
at sea. Every day sees a new ad-
vance in the dominion of the air.
Three nations have recognized the
new lordship. France is building fff-
ty Wright aeroplanes. Germany has
a huge secret park in which airships
OF all kinds are made and experiment.

the Emperor has factor that could
make the greatest Dreadnought look
like saucer OF mush. Japan takes
to the air naturally. She is construct
ing In England two air-cruisers. aerial
training ships. In other respects she
is abreast OF the times.
Now, It is as important for the
United States to determine by ex-
haustive experiment the value of air
navigation In time of war, as It is
for Germany or France or Japan so
to do. Such work is highly technical.
1t requires persistent experience.
When suddenly required. an aireLip

airships to put our cities under con

corps as much besides. The Anglo
Saxon control of the sea is apt tc
be nothing but passing dream unless
we keep up to modern requirements =

STOCK BILL NO. a1e
is NOT BENEFICIAL

Should senate bin No. 2lB be passed
by the present session of the leglsla
ture, the old conditions would soon
obtain again on the stock ranges of
the southwest. At least that is the
expressed opinion of those who have
had the task for years OF enforcing
the humane laws. At every session
the range stock men are fighting the
humane organization. Tie laws do
not contemplate any hardship to them
simply require them to feed and care
for their stock during winter months
and not TO neglect stock at any time
The laws appear wise and humane
and a majority of the stock growers
are in favor of their observance, but
those who have neglected apd starved
range stock. who have been prose.
euted are always imploring members
of the legislature to wipe out the
humane laws. 1t is estimated that
there is not loss of more than
per cent of the losses to range and
other stock through neglect that exist.

ed upon the books and enforced by
the agents.

sioners, and right here is where prose
cution of offenses would end. as the
offenders would not have the ever
watchfuI agents to contend with.
They would only have to fall to re.
port and to hide offenses in the M

ers. whatever would be their disposi-
tions, would have no complaints to
act upon.

ANNUAL CROP OF EARTHQUAKES

Boston Courier.
Systematic observation OF earth.
quakes is only about quarter OF a
century old. For fairly complete rec.
ords of all the shocks occurring In
different parts Of the globe we can
date only from 1892. Before that date,
says Professor Turner, In paper pub
lished by the London Times, informa-
tion could not be collected on the
spot, and was thus frequently lost.
1t was realized about fifteen years
ago, more or less, that series of
earthquake observations, with delicate
instruments, could obtain records OF
shocks In any quarter OF the globe,
and identify the spot with certainty,
even If there were no witnesses to the
actual occurrence. From the records
OF these observatories. 1t appears that
there are every year some 10000
minor shocks of earthquake in differ
ent localities.
or all these only sixty are world
shaking" and observable from n great
distance. Such numbers indicate i'm
mediately that from one point of view
the Italian earthquake of last Decem
ber cannot be regarded as exceptional
1t was only one event out OF sixty per
annum. What rendered It disastrou.
was the existence OF great towns In
the shaken locality.

MAILS BORNE BY DOGS.

No one, not even his brutal native
master. begrudges an Eskimo dog his
summer vacation. Every Alaska town
swarms with dogs. and no amount of
cutting or OF yelling will cause them
to stir If they are indisposed to move.
In summer. says writer In "St
Nicholas" their sluggish blood and
wornout legs respond only to fight.
They are never toe old. too tired or
too hungry for that. When not In
harness or asleep they are always
scrapping.
In speed the outside dog-that is.
The dog from Europe or the states
shows off In camp to the disadvantage
of the native. but once on the trail
the latter is the Arabian steed OF the
arctics. The aristocrats Of Alaska
dog life are the mail teams In the
United States service. Until the com
ing OF the Americans the leaders IN
Eskimo dog teams were unknown In
the arctics. The trail was general,

This is the startling stst tement made

Borah says Roosevelt has malaria in

first time the fact that the president

neighborhood of his home, came into
bloomsbury. Pa, the other day with
seven dozen of the small turtles, rep
resenting one days catch since the
break in the weather and the going
out af the ice.
Shoemaker's plan is unique. In the
fall of the year the terrapin burrows
into the banks OF the stream for win.
ter. During this alternating season
they retain all their plumpness and
flavor, and really are in better con
dition than when taken in the warm
weather. When a thaw comes along
such as has prevailed the last week
the terrapin harvest is on. With
long-handled pitchfork as "feeler"
Shoemaker goes along the creeks,
jabbing down into the loose earth,
and the moment the tines OF the fork
touch the springy back of turtle he
makes a quick twist OF the wrist, and
The next thing the turtle is out on the
bank, kicking for dear life.
The winter prices for the terra.

In the summer, when they are more
plentiful, that a thaw In winter means
