Argentlna's Bolivian Policy.

Washington, July 31.-Argentinas policy regarding Bolivia, said a well informed diplomat today, will be one of isolation until Bolivia takes steps for renewal of friendly relations. Argentina will await developments in Bolivia, just as the United States did with Venezuela when Venezuela re- fused to arbitrate disputed claims be- tween them. Close observers say the agitation in Bolivia against the award made by Argentina is political step instigated by the retiring President, who Is anxious to make all the capital possible for his own benefit.

 My observation is that the movement is being pushed solely by people residing In the southern end of the county and the way I have sized up the situation Is that the new county Is being sought for the creation of offices which quite a few ment want. If the present courthouse were out of reach of the Bessemer people 1t would be another matter, but as 1t is they have excellent street car service and they have little trouble if any at all in reaching the county offices in Birming- ham,"

TO TELL WHEN MEAT IS DONE.
Scientific Device Worthy a Place in
Every Kitchen.

Cooks are accustomed to cut into
piece of meat when cooking, to prod
vegetables with a fork. and 10 use
similar primitive methods of ascertain
ing the stage TO which the roasting or
boiling process has advanced. The
first really scientific device to mea-
sure the temperature inside a piece of
cooking food has recently been invent
ed in Copenhagen. Denmark. 1t is
called 'thermo needle" and consists
OF thin metal tube, pointed at one
end and containing a spring held In
tension by an alloy melting at speci-
fed temperature. which is that de-
sired for cooking. The melting of this
alloy releases the spring and shoots up
pin as signal that the desired tenn
perature exists in the interior of the
food into which the needle" has been
thrust As the instrument is with
drawn, the pin is pushed down and
held while the fusible alloy sets"
when the device is ready for use again.

that the bite of this little skunk
produces hydrophobia. The Gila
monster is seldom seen, and the
writer, after having spent nearly
year on the borders of DEATH
Valley. has yet to see one OF
them at large. Rattlesnakes arr
also scarce except in some fav
orable locality. d
The mountain sheep and ibeE
are gradually becoming tame
and this summer they have come
to springs where miners were
camped as regularly as domestic,
stock and with little more timid
ity. The mountain quail follows
the miner and his burro. In the
Avawatz Mountains they were
unknown until this year, but
they are abundant there now.
It is an unwritten law among
the miners on the desert that no
game animals or birds shall be
killed, or in any way disturbed,
unless one is in actual want, and
he must make proof, convincing
of that fact, if he kills a quail or
sheep.
All life on the desert lives by
its power TO resist thirst. AN
desert plants are so constructed
that they are able to conserve
and store up moisture against
the time Of drouth. This neces-
sity has wrought peculiar forms
of both animals and plants, and
in time it also leaves its indelible
mark upon men who dwell amid
it's wastes. The leaves of ali
desert trees are small and thick
i
SO that they expose as little sur
face as possible for evaporation
in the dra air. The great and
everpresent evidence of the
struggle for water is noticeable
everywhere where men come to-
gether on the desert. In this
struggle all who come to the
desert must engage instantly.
Every wagon must have its wa.
ter barrels, every burrO his wa
ter bags, each man his canteen.
There are times, however,
when the desert is not desert.
That time comes with the rain.
Nothing, any where, can Outrank
the glory of the desert when the
rain finally comes. For months,
perhaps years, it has lain
scorched and dry, not sprig of
green anywhere in the gray dust.
No life appears; all is dead, dull,
gray; no seed, no blossom nor
promise of then; no spring. But
the rain comes, and in a few days
the whole desert is one field of
green and gorgeous blossom.
No other land can produce so
great a profusion and variety of
/ flowers or such exquisite colors.
