ROMANTIC TALE OF A CITY.
Begun on Rats Of Tree Trunks In q
Lake-NoW a Metropolis.

The story Of the founding Of the
City Of Mexico is one Of the most ex-
traordinary tales in history. It hap
pened in 1926, at least, 1t began a long
time before that, but was an accom-
plished fact about 600 years ago.
In the first place, says the Rosary
Magazine, imagine an almost mac
cessible mountain, crowned with a val
ley at the height of 5000 feet above
the level Of the sea. In the center OF
this valley was an immense lake.
When the Aztecs arrived, led by the
priests Of the God Of War. they found
1t in the possession Of hostile tribes.
For that reason, and because the
priests declared that in a certain part
Of the lake where there stood an ele-
walton of stones an eagle had been
cen devouring a serpent, they began
the construction of the city on this
spot, Immediately over the deepest
waters of the lake. There had long
existed a prophecy among the Aztecs
that their wanderings would end when
they should have reached a place
where the priests would behold an
eagle resting on a cactus plant, de-
vouring a serpent.
Confident that they had found the
spot ordained to be their abiding
home, they began to construct RATS
of the trunks of trees, covering them
with thick layers of earth, upon which
they built rude huts of more or less
solidity. Groups of dwellings Dol be-
gan to form themselves in regular or
der, thus determining the primitive
| streets of the new city.
They also constructed boats and
| oars of different sizes useful In peace
and war, and while certain of theiI
number occupied themselves in de
Tending their homes and brethren
from the o%nslaughts Of hostile tribes
others continued to improve and en-
large the new city. Gradually the lake
was filled up, and terraces arose, one
after another. in the place once occu
pied by the deep waters.
This was in itself a herculean labor
unsurpassed in ingenuity and durabili
ty by any similar work of ancient Of
modern times. Upon the first of these
terraces was constructed the Teocalli
or sacrifcial temple. 1t was begun
in 1916 and rot complied until 1925.
period of 100 years, from which tint
may be dated the official foundation
of Tenochtitlan, to-day the modern
City of Mexico.

Ostrich FARMING Profitable.

A new industry which promises
great possibilities has been started in
Australia. At Nardoo, Coonambie, os-
trich farming is meeting with success.
There are 100 ostriches on one farm.
The firm is using incubators, the same
as those used to hatch out the modest
product of the domestic hen, only that
the egg drawers are made deeper for
the purpose, while the temperature for
a successful hatch is 1902 degrees
Fahrenheit. Artificial incubation is
preferred to natural. The young os-
triches require careful handling for the
first month or six weeks Of their exist
ence, the one essential being green
food, such as lucerne. TIL" value of the
feathers produced by each bird a year
is $40. They can be plucked at any
time after they are large enough, and
yield feathers black, white and drab in
color. The male bird yields the most
valuable feathers.
