TOWN OF GOLD BRICKS.
Wealth Found In tho Walls OF Mexi'
can Adobe Houses.

can Adobe Houses.
There are many remarkable towns
In Mexico, but none more interest
ing than Guanajuato, "the hill of the
frog" 1t might more properly be
called the gold brick town." for the
houses have been found to contain
much gold.
This is a curious situation, but 1t
came about naturally. Guanajuato--
pronounced Wah-nah- wahto-is one OF
the oldest mining towns In Mexico, but
the value of the place rs town was
discovered when railroad company
decided TO build station there. 1t
was found necessary to tear down
about 300 adobe buildings. which were
made of the refuse Of various mines
after the ore was extracted.
When 1t became known that the OLD
adobe buildings would be torn down
pieces taken at random were assayed
1t was found that because OF the Old
process. which left much gold and sill
YER. they assayed from So to $24 ton
The mean value was estimated to run
about So gold Il ton.
The old buildings have brought about
$4,000 Mexican. in gold. and persons
who have brilt since the new machin
cry has been installed In the mines
are bemoaning the fact that the new
houses do not contain ms much gold as
the nld.-Scientfc American.

USE OF PILLOWS.

A Habit That Is Unnecessary and at
Times May Be Harmful.
"Pillows are little more than fad
and rather harmful one at that"
said Germantown doctor. They
should, indeed, only be used by those
who sleep Oh their sides. as they are
really Injurious to others. When you
sleep OH your side your shoulder pre-
vents your head from lying level Oh
the bed. ard pillows are useful to
raise the head to this level.
"The natural and most healthful po-
sition for the ordinary person In Sleep
ing Is for ones head to be kept per-
fectIy even. Just as 1t would be stand
ing up. Now. for the one who lies on
his back while sleeping no pillow is
needed to keep the head in this posi-
ton. and yet 90 per cent of the per-
SONS who sleep on their backs use pill
lows while those who sleep on their
sides use far more pillow than is nee
essary.
"people get used to having their
heads and shoulders propped high up
and imagine they could not sleep any
other way; but, as matter OF fact, II
tbey would try sleeping with little or
M inflow they would not only find that
they would feel better in the morning,
but also would actually be more CON-
Portable in bed and sleep much sound
or throughout the night" -Philadelphia

HOW TO GET RID Of
CALLS AND GULLIfS.

Whenever we see a CALLED spot or
q gully, bare of vegetation, we can't
help wondering how any land-own-
er can get his consent to permit the
continuance of such conditions.
The longer they exist the worse
thew become. Why should any
farmer permit himself to be thus
robbed of his "stock in trade" his
capital, his farm? Furthermore,
the time lost through the necessity
of more frequent turns, or in work
ing over or around them, rightly
employed, would prevent their ex-
istence or restore them to a useful
condition after they have been
formed. We do not believe in fill
ing gullies with rails, brush or 9TH
err materials which are likely to be
in the way later on. For gullies or
CALLED spots, the best remedy is
straw, coarse stable manure, or
some other material that will i'm
prove their fertility. Follow this
with some growing crop. If a gull
ly, pillow dirt into it, turn the ex-
cess of water in another direction
and SOW peas; if a CALLED spot, pillow
deeply and keep something grow
ing on it all the time. We have
seen gullies ten feet deep filled and
brought up to the productive parts
Of the field in three or four years
by a liberal application of straw,
leaves or coarse stable manure and
the sowing of cowpeas.. 1t llpay
to fill them up for the crops they
will bring, and if the fields are to
be put in condition for the use of
the implements necessary f)r eco
nomical cultivation, these Scared
and quilted fields, SO common i'll
many parts of the South, must be
made to disappear.

THE BEGINNING OF FORES-
TRY IN THE UNITED STATES.


When did the United States be-
gin the practice of forestry? Few
persons can answer this question
correctly. Most people are OF the
opinion that the beginning OF for
estry in this country was OF very
recent origin, and that the first
step in that direction was taken
among the mountains OF the far
West. Neither fact is correct.
While Washington was serving
his first term as President OF the
United States, Il recommendation
came to him that the government
ought to buy live oak islands on
the coast of Georgia to make sure
of supply of ship timber for war
vessels. The idea appears to have
originated with Joshua Humphreys,
whose official title was "Contrnctor
of the United States Navy al
though about the only navy then
existing was made up of six ships
on paper, and not one stick OF tim
Der to build them had been cut.
The vessels were designed to fight
the north African pirates.
Five years after the recommen-
dation was made Congress appro-
priated money to buy live oak
land. Grover and Blackboard is
lands on the coast OF Georgia were
bought for s21 800. They con-
tanned 1850 acres.
Louisiana was bought soon after,
and in 1917 the Six Islands, CT 49,
900 acres, and containing 81 600
| live oak trees, were withdrawn
from SALE. and set apart as re-
serve. In 1925, Congress appro-
priated $40, 900 to buy additional
| live oak land on Santa Rosa Sound
" estern Florida, and subsequently
other Florida timber lands, aggre-
eating 208 ,224 acres, were reserved.
Up to that time nothing more
| had been done than to buy or re-
serve land for the timber growing
naturally upon it; but the work
was to be carried further upon the
Santa Rosa purchase. The plan
included planting, protecting, cul-
tivating, and cutting live oak for
the Navy. That timber was then
considered indispensable in build
ing war vessels. Much had been
said and written of the danger Of
exhaustion of supply. Settlers de-
stroyed timber to clear land, and
European nations were buying
large quantities for their navies. In
response to repeated warnings the
Government finally took steps tc
grow timber for its own use.
Young oaks were planted on the
Santa Rosa lands. difficulty was
experienced in indy hg young trees
to grow. The ceesful trans
planting of the OF rs not easy, un'
less done at the Upper time and II
the right way. he plantations al
Santa Rosa wen generally unsuc
cessful; but large quantities o.
acorns were planted, and q falrpro
portion Of them grew. But the
chief efforts were directed to prun
ling, training, and caring for thu
, wild trees. Thickets about then
were cut away to let in air ant
light.
What the ultimate success of tn
forestry work would have been cal

by substituting iron for wood. For
estry work stopped. The timbe

some of the Florida land, were
opened to settlement.

SHORT HEALTH TALKS.
NO. II. GOOD AND BAD MILK.

NO. IL. GOOD AND BAD Min
The value of cows milk as q hui
man food depends entirely upon its
quality and condition when used.
Milk from diseased cows, milk
drawn in an unclean manner, or
milk left standing too long after it
is drawn is unfit for human use. If
given to babies, such milk may act
as a powerful poison. On the 9TH
er hand, clean, pure and fresh milk
is the best artificial food for chill
dren and most nourishing drink
for all persons.
No person in the city should use
any milk unless he is familiar with
the conditions at the dairy or farm
from which the milk comes, or I'M
less the dairy is regulated by a
competent health officer. If the
stables used for the COWS are kept
clean and free from disease, if the
mixers use clean vessels and milk
with clean hands, and if the milk
is cooled as soon as it is drawn, it
can be used with safety. But II
any of these conditions are violated,
the milk should not be drunk by
any one. Equally as much de-
ponds upon the manner in which
the milk is cared for after it reach
es the home as upon the conditions
of the milking. Very frequently
good milk is allowed to spoil after
it reaches the home. Where milk
is delivered to the home. it should
be placed at once in a clean vessel i,
and should be placed upon ice with
out delay. The best way is to
have a special bottle, easily clean
ed, into which the milk is poured
and in which it is kept until used.
AS soon as the bottle is emptied, it
should be thoroughly rlnsed and
scalded and then summed.
In cases where a COW is kept on
the premises, every precautlon
should be taken to keep the stable
clean. Scrupulous cleanliness in
milking and in all the vessels used
is the only safe policy.
The Importance Of cooling the
milk in the dairy and keeping it
cool in the home can not be over
estimated.

among the number it is anticipated
that some suitable scheme can bt
selected and placed under contract
within a reasonable time.
After mention of many other pros
pective prospects in Crook. Malheur
Harvey and Lake counties the follow
ing is said of the John Day project
The only remaining Eastern Oregon
project that has thus far been ex-
anined by the reclamation engineers
is the John Day. If funds were
plenty and that project could be built
to best advantage, it would be by
far the biggest thing in the irrigation
line that Oregon has ever seen. or is
likely to see. In its broadcast dimen-
sions, the John Day project could be
made to irriaate 5000 900 acres of
land living on the south shore Of the
Columbia River imn ediately west of
Umatilla. The big project would
take the waters from several storage
reservoirs, on John Day River, and
divert them by an expensive canal and
tunnel through the mountainous cliff
on the east bank of the John Day
out onto the broad, fiat country to be
reclaimed Snch a tunnel through
the mountains from the John Day
would be bigger and longer and more
costly than the big Gunnison tunnel
in Colorado, recently opened by Presi-
dent Taft. Owing to the depleted
state of the reclamation fund. such
project is not now feasible.
There il an alternate plan, how
ever. bv which part of this land
near Umatilla may be reclaimed. The
Government could dam the Deschutes
River and with the impounded water |
develop sufficient electric energy to
pump enough water from the Columbia
irrigate at least 30, 900 aces. If any
thing is to be done in the near future
in theU matilla country. it must be |
along the line of this pumping project.
