Taste and Smell.

Psychologists have long known that
many sensations ordinarily ascribed
TO taste are in reality due TO smell.
but this fact has been made clearer
than before by the Investigations OF
German savants. Air enters the oil
factory amber, where the nerves
connected with the sense of snSl are
centered. both through the nostrils
and through an inlet leading from the
mouth. IN consequence breath of
perfumed air manifests its odor not
only when 1t is breathed in. but when
it is breathed out For this reason we
are sometimes deceived as to the
source of the pleasure we derive from
things taken into the mouth. the agree
ableness Of the impression being due.
In some cases, rather to smell than to
taste.-New York Herald.

ASSESSED
ACREAGE
Of ORCHARDS

The county commissioner office
has prepared some of the totals on
Mesa county property. and among the
most interesting figures are those re-
garding orchard land, bearing and
non-bearing. In the latter class has
been grouped everything from where
the trees have just beer set out, up
to the bearing age.
According to the assessors figures
there are 7,423 acres of bearing or
chard in the county, and 1913 acres
of non-bearing orchards. This gives
a total orchard acreage of 20,256
acres in the county with total valu-
alton of $l,672.425 on orchard land
The average valuation of bearing
orchard land will run about 1924 per
acre, while the average on non-bear-
ing orchard land will run about s5S
per acre.
OF course the lower priced orchards
will fall below the average consider
ably, while the orchards for which
fancy prices are being asked will ey-
coed the average somewhat.

Courier in the last number comments
as follows on the recitation: ''Wher-
ever Mr. Bispham has appeared this
season, The Raven" has proved as
popular feature as last year. The
Louisville Post says that the rendi-
ton of The Raven" is more than a
recitation-it is a drama, a tragedy
enacted before the eyes of the audi
