PURPOSE WELL
Oddly Made Flag, But It Stirred the
Enthusiasm of Patriotic Amer
lean Miners.

Red, white and blue shirts, which
had seen much wear, stars cut from
odd flour sacks, and coarse black
thread were materials used-the only
materials to be had-by Dan S. Kahn
and his miners at Kain's camp on
Valdez creek last summer when Fourth
of July rolled around and the patriotic
Americans found themselves without
a flag to swing to the breeze. So
interesting did the flag prove when it
was finally completed that it was pre-
served, and through the courtesy of
Mr.. Kahn and the Valdez Women's Aux
iliary it was exhibited IN the Alaska
building at the Alaska Yukon Pacific
exposition.
Fourth of July, the day we cele.
brate," said Kahn to his men when he
awakened that morning. I'VE have

A consultation was held, and the
plan was hit upon of using shirts and
-four sacks to make the emblem OF
freedom.

especially where large numbers of
seedlings are grown. This wide range
also extends to all the other charac.
teristics, such as form Of petals, con.
tour of bloom, foliage, substance, pro-
ductiveness and roofing qualities Of
the cuttings and firmness or stiffness

are always stiff stemmed regardless OF
conditions under which they are
grown, while others are exceedingly

Our present requirements apd meth
DDS of handling this class Of flowers
seem to direct all chrysanthemum

are preferable. For fiat punches and
baskets those which have slightly
softer or more pliable stems are the
most graceful. The illustration shows

equipped with some special apparatus
for the trapping of insects and which
clearly demonstrate the adaptability
of nature to circumstances. Not un-
frequently we read Of plants which are
capable of trapping and devouring rats,
mice and other rodents, and one writ
er at least has gone SO far as to de-
scribe man-catching tree.
Probably the most wonderful of all
the insectivorous plants is the Venus
fly-trp (Dionaea muscipula). a small
plant found wild in Carolina and Flor
ida, whence it was introduced to this
country in 1853. AS will be seen in
the illustration, the leaves of this
plant are formed of two crescent
shaped lobes, the margins of which
are armed with stiff, sharply pointed
hairs, the whole being not unlike an
old-fashioned steel rat trap.
When ready for action the two seq
ments of the leaf should lie open and
nearly fiat, similar to the one in the
left-hand bottom corner of the illus
tration. On the inner surfaces Of
these lobes, but scarcely discernible
in the illustration, are six smaller
hairs, three on each lobe, and it is in
the region of these inner hairs that
the sensitive portion of the leaf will
be found. If fly or ether small in
sect alights on this portion of the leaf.
the two lobes quickly close up and i'm
prison the intruder, the stiff, marginal
hairs acting as sort of barrier to
prevent egress. Imprisoned thus, the
insect naturally is soon lifeless and it
is not until decomposition is practi-
cally finished that the leaf opens
again. It is moot point whether the
plant, as at present known, derives
any real nourishment from its prey,
and this applies equally to all insec-
tivorous plants; but it is scarcely con-
ceivable that in the remote past it's
ancestors should have gone to the
trouble of developing this wonderful
apparatus without eventually reaping
some benefit from it.

HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

No alfalfa for the orchard. It
takes too much moisture out of the
ground.
Wood ashes are a good lawn and
general garden fertilizer, containing
potash, lime and other similar food
elements.
If an orchard is on low ground 1t
should be drained, because the air
must be admitted to the soil or the
trees will die.
The advocates of sod mulch and cul.
tivation are still fighting as bitterly
as ever and probably will continue to
do so until the end of time.
Prepare for the spraying campaign
Consult our spray pump advertisers
and write to your state experiment
station for bulletins on spraying.
We do not believe that pruning is
exactly science, but it is an art
which the individual grower must ex.
ercise according to his own judgment
These cold, high winds make fell
low think Of windbreaks. Let's plan
to set row Of Norway spruce to the
windward of that orchard. Why not?
A two-year-old tree can be started
more easily than three-year-old.
With some varieties a one-year-old
tree is even better than two-year-
old.
An inexperienced man with pair
of sharp pruning shears will do more
harm in an orchard in one day than
all the insects combined could do in a
year.

Why does Great Britain buy its
oatmeal of US?

Certainly it seems like carrying
Goals to Newcastle to speak OF export
ing oatmeal to Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds of thousands of cases OF
Quaker Oats to Great Britain and
europe.
The reason is simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally of all people, the American
ias been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods OF
manufacture so that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How we'll he has succeeded would
be seen at a glance at the export re-
ports of Quaker Oats. This brand Is
recognized as without rival in clean
siness and delicious flavor. 81

raiilery of his friends. He decided to
learn from the papers the name OF
the owner and restore the bracelet to
her.
There was no mention of the theft
in the morning papers, but in the first
edition of the evening papers he read
of the capture of man who had been
seen to snatch a bracelet which a
young woman had dropped, but it had
not been found on his person and it
was supposed that he had passed it to
an accomplice in the crowd, until the
owner of the bracelet appeared and
testified to the recovery of the brace
let, which, she said, had been returned
to her that morning by some one who
had found it. She completely exoner-
ated the suspected man. and he was
released.
"Well, this grows interesting"
thought Compton. II must Investigate
further"
He learned from the papers that the
owner of the bracelet was Miss Irene
Osbourne, a young actress who lived
at family hotel downtown. That very
afternoon Compton sought the hotel
and on inquiry at the Office learned
that Miss Osbourne had left the city
an hour before and would not return
until the opening of the season in
September. She had left no address
Compton was in a dilemma. His
first opinion that 1t was an old trick
of the actress-advertising by way Of
lost jewels-was refuted by the fact
that he had the jewels and there was
apparently no effort being made to re
cover them.
AS he turned to leave the Office Of
the hotel, porter with truck nearly
ran into him. A quick, searching
glance convinced Compton that the
man was the one who had been ar

Good BIackberries,

Sometimes in old patches the fruit
is inferior, for instead of developing
properly it will be small and dry.
There's a reason for this and way
@ avoid it. 1t takes some work, but
,ood fruit pays. If the patch is old
md not cultivated too much, grass
md weeds get in, and probably the
lanes are too thick.
The remedy is culture or mulching.
The latter is the best and the cheap
est. Pile in old hay or straw or
strawy manure. Make 1t six inches
deep all through the patch. 1t will
not only smother out weeds. but will
so enrich the soil and hold moisture

but he followed the rule of Dickens,
Never to pass a crowd" for in the
observation of human driftwood he
found his chief entertainment.
One night as he turned from Thirty
seventh street into Broadway, he en-
countered a madly pursuing crowd
yelling the hackneyed cry Of stop,
theft" One of the crowd, a poorly
clad, white-faced youth, was slightly
in advance. As he passed close to
Compton, a policeman pressed IN
among the crowd and seized the thief
In the slight struggle of the capture,
Compton was jostled and showed
aside.
He watched with interest the pro-
tests of the supposed thief, the stoical
skepticism of the officer and the dis
persing of the satisfied crowd. Then
he sought his apartments and felt In
his pocket for his cigarette case. HIS
hand encountered an unfamiliar OBJ
ject, and, to his amazement, he drew
forth an amethyst bracelet! The
stones were large and of the pinkish
purple tint, linked by delicate f1ligree
gold.
Instantly his memory reverted to
the incident of the thief and his prox-
unity at the time of the capture.
HE didn't want to be caught with
the goods" he concluded. so he un-
loaded on me-"
His first impulse was to take the
bracelet to police headquarters, but he

The above caption about represents

such was the case. There is not

miles apart, around which group the

but each important to it's own district.
Schools are largely maintained by pub
lie funds and the expense Of tuition Is
but a nominal sum.
The final returns of the grain pro-
duction for Central Canada for 1909 is
now in, and the figures show that the
value of the crops to the farmers OF
that country is about 1875 million dol
lars, as compared with 100 million last
year. American farmers or those who
have gone from the United States, will
participate largely in these splendid
returns, and these comprise those who
have gone from nearly every State in
the Union.
One of the many proofs that might
be put forward showing the immense
wealth that comes to the farmers OF
Central Canada is seen in the sum
that has been spent during the past
two or three months by the farmers
who have for the time being ceased
worrying over the reaper and the
thresher, and are taking to enjoying
themselves for two or three months
It is said that fifty thousand people of
these Western Provinces spent the
holiday season visiting their old
homes. Most of these passengers paid
forty and some forty-five dollars for
the round trip. Some went to Great
Britain, some to the Continent, others
to their old homes in Eastern Canada.
and many thousands went to visit
their friends in the States. The amount
paid alone in transportation would be
upward of two million dollars. Some
make the trip every years. 1t need
not be asked, Can they afford it,"
With crops yielding them profit Of
$50 to $25 per acre, and some having
as much as twelve hundred or more
acres, the question is answered. The
Canadian Government Agents at diff
ferent points in the States report that
they have interviewed a great many
of those who are now visiting friends
In the different states, and they all ex'
press themselves as we'll satisfied
and promise to take some of their
friends back with them. There is still
a lot of free homestead land in splen'
did districts, and other lands can be
purchased at reasonable price from
railway and land companies.
