.FLIRT Of THE HEAVENS
WINKED At Los ANGELES
RaIIey's Comet, with Train Be-
hind 1t, COyIy Appears
at Shutdown

Halley's comet. which has been flirt-
ing with the scientists for the past
month or so, paid its respects to Los
Angeles yesterday evening soon after
sundoWn and was viewed by what the
atrical press agents term "a large and
appreciative audience" AS a matter
of fact, however, the comet was some-
what shy, coy as a debutante at her
first ball. 1t was visiVle only after the
sun had set. and then scurried for
cover beneath the western horizon so
fast that it could scarcely be seen for
the dust it kicked up. Moreover, a
complaisant fog, coming in from the
ocean, covered the retreat.
During the brief time the sky joy
rider was visible, however, it was
viewed by thousands, every hilltop
having it's gallery of spectators, and
other thousands taking in the unusual
spectacle from convenient roofs.
Compared with the moon, the head
of the comet appeared to be about one
fourth the size of that reflective lumi-
nary, but much diminished. It's caudal
appendage floating away at an angle,
was of interminable length, appear
ing like a single shoot of the Aurora
BOrealis, alternately visible and OBJ
scured.
Yesterday evening was the first time
the comet had been visible to the naked
eye of Los Angeles observers for over
a week. Prior to that time it had
been an early morning visitor, and it's
comings escaped general observation,
although the milkmen frequently saw
it as they made their rounds.
From now on the comet will be vis-
ible, setting later and later each even
ing, until it finally recedes so far from
the earth that all trace of it will be
lost for another period of seventy-five
wears,

TO HAVE HEALTHY FERN BALLS

1t is so seldom that really luXuriant
fern balls are seen growing in the
house that l feel considerable pride
when [ see how well my own turn
out each year. They are really good
examples of what fern balls should be.
| have a little conservatory attached to
nv house and in this l grow the ferns.
For a long time ! had great difficulty
with the string that bound the moss,
as it frequently rotted and allowed
the ball to fall apart To remedy this
| had a couple of wire hemispheres
made and into these hinged and wired
together put the fern balls, with great
success.
The great essential in growing fern
balls is to nourish them properly, and
this I do with a solution of liquid
manure. [ use a cheese-cloth bag for
this purpose, and, after filling it with
manure allow it to soak in a pail of
water. Into this water l put the fern
ball; when it has grown too large to
be put in the pail pour the liquid on
it until it is thoroughly soaked. 1t is
useless to try to grow these plants
without the liquid manure feeding.
They win not properly mature and will
be one-sided affairs. 1t is a good idea
when you first get your fern ball in
the fall to bury it for "a month or SO
before starting it in to grow.-House

NEW TRACK IS 80 MILES LONG
Limited and Overland Passenger

NEW TRACK IS 80 MILES LONG

]. Ross Clark, second vice president
of the Salt Lake railroad, returned
Friday afternoon from an extensive
trim over the sections of the road re-
Gently damaged by floods in the
Meadow valley wash, in Nevada.
Mr. Clark reports that the work OF
repair and reconstruction is progress
ing rapidly, and says that two through
passenger trains-the Limited and the
Overland-will resume service not later
than June IA. About eighty miles OF
the new road has been completed.
The work of building the new high
line through the Meadow valley region
will begin soon and when this high
line, which will be about eighty miles
long is completed the danger of future
foundations will have been eliminated.
The work on repairs is being rushed
as rapidly as possible, and Mr.. Clark
said last night that it could be an
nounced definitely that the Salt Lake
company would resume normal service,
with all regular through trains in
operation by June 10.
w, H. Bancroft, first vice president
of the road, also has been looking over
the reconstruction roadbed, and is now
in Los Angeles to confer with Mr..
Clark. Mr.. Bancroft reports that
there still is about sixteen miles OF
railway to be built before the road can
be opened, but this can be done within
the time stated.
Service was resumed yesterday to
Caliente from Salt Lake City Hereto
fore trains have been running only as
far as Acoma, thirty miles east of
Caliente. The construction camp has
heen moved east as far as Leith, and

and sift 1t over your garden beds. 1t

FACE PATCHES.

They Became = Society Craze At One
Time In England.
Plaster patches were introduced in
England in the reign Of Edward vi.
by u foreign lady who in this manner
ingeniously concealed a wen on her
neck. They became such = craze and
were carried to such exaggerated
lengths that they were finally lam

fashion considered her toilet complete
until she was equipped with her little
box of patches cut in her favorite de-
sign. II one happened to come of in
company she hurriedly replaced it
with fresh one from the box.
At length patching in England went
30 far that party spirit was symbo-
lied by the position Of the patches.
A letter in the paper on June 2, I'LL.

the discovery by the writer Of three

GATHERING OPIUM.
How the Petals and Juice Of the Poppy
Plant Are Procured.

How the Petal. and Juice Of the Poppy
Plant Are Procured.
Opium growing is a sort OF garden
cultivation, the poppy plants being
grown in little squares or beds inter.
sected by tiny water channels for irri-
cation wherever this is possible. The
growth Of the plants is carefully tend
ed, and at length the time comes when
they burst out into flower. and the
fields look like sheet Of silver as the
white petals Of the flowers glisten in
the morning dew.
These beautiful petals are the first
produce Of the crop, for the women
and children Of the cultivators' fami-
lies come forth and pick them OF one
by one and carefully dry them. so that
they may serve afterward as the COW
ering of the manufactured cakes of
opium. Then the poppies. with their
bare capsule heads. remain standing
in the open field until it is considered
that they are ripe for lancing. The
cultivators then come forth In the
evening, and with an implement not
unlike the knives Of cupping instru-
ment they scarify the capsule on its
sides with deep incisions, so that the
juice may exude.
In the early morning the cultivators
reappear with. scraping knife and
their earthenware pots, and they
scrape of the exuded Juice and collect

APPEAL FOR PRESIDENT
CABINET MEMBERS IN THE OHIO
 CAMPAIGN.
They Say 1912 Nomination Depends Greatly on 1910 Results in
 Buckeye State.

Columbus, O.. Nov .4.-Members Of President Taft's cabinet have entered the Ohio campaign with an appeal on his behalf. They wave all state issues aside and frankly say the only ques- tion to be decided in the present Ohio fight is whether Tafts own state will indorse him or not. They acknowl- edge, with equal candor, that the pres ent struggle in this state will have a most important bearing upon the 1912 national campaign.
 However much you may be as- sured," said Secretary of State Knox, speaking here, that the great issues in this campaign are local, it is not so. They are national. However much the Democratic party may desire vic tory in other states, it is as nothing compared with their frantic efforts to defeat the Republican ticket in Ohio. and thus arm them selves for 1912 with the cry that Ohio has condemned the Taft administration and has repudi- ated her own son. However the case may be elsewhere, in Ohio the line of cleavage is the president, his poli- cies and his success, and his intelli- gent and honest purpose in working them out"
 While Secretary Knox was making this frank statement to voters in the |, central part of the state, Franklin MasVeagh, secretary of the treasury was in Toledo putting the same prop osition.
