captain John Smith and Rats.
The intrepid navigator Captain John
Smith in the course of his journeying
in the Bermudas had some experience
of the rat as destructive force. But
the great God Of heaven he writes,
caused such an increase Of silly rats
in the space of two years so to abound
before they regarded them that they
filed not only those places where they
were first landed, but, swimming from
place to place, spread themselves into
all parts of the country, insomuch that
there was no land but it was pestered
with them, and some fishes have been
taken with rats in their bellies which
they caught in swimming from lie to
lie. Their nests they had in almost ev-
cry tree and in most places their bur-
rows in the ground like comics. They
spared not the fruits of the plants or
trees or the very plants themselves,
but ate them up All efforts to exter-
inmate these vermin proved unsuccess-
full, and the unfortunate colonists
were destitute of bread for yeere or
two"

The TRAVELLERS low,

The cream Of tartar tree. which is
also called the "sour gourd," grows in
northern Australia and has a trunk
which measures from seventy to
eighty-five feet in circumference, but
which is only twenty or thirty feet
high. The wood is soft and juicy and
when STEPPED in water provides the
thirsty traveller with a refreshing and
cooling drink. The fruit is about six
inches long, shaped like a lemon and
contains a gently acid pulp, which
tastes like cream of tartar. Wherever
it is to be found a small encampment
of weary wayfarers unfurl their tents.
When sighted in the bush the famous
tree is always greeted with a song
written by the early bushrangers
