SHEEP AND THE REED FLUTE
hierders of Palestine Have Aecus-
toned Their Animals to the Sound
Of Weird Music.

The pastoral life OF the Palestine
peasant has always been a subject OF
interest ana d pleasant study. The
shepherd Is seen AT his best in the
spring when he has the care of both
sheep and lambs and when all his
thoughts are conferred on his seeming
ly inaoient occupation.
WORK for the shepherd begins In
earnest with the lambing season,
which commences early in January
and continues for two or three
months; during that time it is no un-
usual sight to see the shepherd with
several newly born lambs or kids
stored away in the capacious folds OF
his bosom and the mothers in close
attendance.

rain come on the shelter of some cave

on fine day, and the aong hours on

In making music on the reed flute, OF
which every shepherd is the maker
and player. I'D. { =
The music Is an assurance to the
sheep that the shepherd IS on the
alert; let the music ceass for any
length of time and the flock will stop

one on another. There is only one
entrance, which is narrow, for the
sheep as they enter have to pass

count them and see that none are
missing.
To find good pasture and a quiet

THE PEANUT

Most people of the north suppose
that peanuts grow, like potatoes,
on the roots of the vine. Others
with equal confidence state that
they hang from the branches like
pea pods. Both are right, and
both are wrong. The peanut
starts in the air and sunlight
above ground in the shape of
flower growing at the end of a
long tube. After the fall of
blossoms this tube, or peduncle,
elongates and bends downward,
pushing itself inchesS. into the
ground. If for any reason it.can-
not do this it dies in few hours.
But if it succeeds in burying itself
to its own satisfaction the ovary
at the base of the peduncle slowly
enlarges and forms the familiar
pod, which is therefore dug out
of the ground. Scattered over
the roots of the plant, however,
are numerous warts or tubercles,
in which, by the aid of a good
microscope, can be seen myriads
OF minute organisms. These
bacteria-like bodies, though they
get their living from the plant,
contribute materially to its sup
porting by collecting nitrogen
from the air and holding it in
storage, so to speak, supplying it
TO the plant as need requires
These wonderful little store
houses often contain, by analysis, a
greater supply of this indispens-
able fertilizer than the surround
ing soil.
The nativ e country of the pea
nut has long been a matter of dis
pute, but the department of
agriculture states that the weight
of evidence seems to be in favor
of Brazil. Thus the peanut is
added to the four other plants of
great Importance that America has
given to the world-namely,
cotton, Indian corn, tobacco and
the potato.

written ORDER NOW REQUIRED

The attention of those who
receive shipments of beer. wines
and liquor is directed to the fact
that on July 16 new rules and re-
gulations governing the transport
alton of intoxicating liquors went
into effect on the Southern Pacific
lines. The new regulations are in
conformity with an act of Con-
gress, one section of which reads
as follows:
ANY officer. agent or employee
of any railroad company who shall
deliver or cause to be delivered to
any person other than the person
to whom it has been consigned to
(unless upon the written order in
each instance of the bona fide con-
signee) or to any fictitious person
or to any person under fictitious
name any spurious vinous matted
fermented or other intoxicating
liquor of any kind moved in inter-
state or intraterritory commerce
shall be fined not more than five
thousand dollars or imprisoned not
more than two years or both.
Under this law the regulations
of the company agents are COM
PEELED to require a written order
for each shipment of any kind of
intoxi eating liquor. But this
refers only to interstate shipments
and not to State shipments.

Stewards Skate on Now Piers.

Stewards Skate on Now Piers.
A new use has been found for the
Chelsea piers said to be the finest In
the world, and also for those opened
In recent years In Hoboken for Ger
man liners. They are proving the
finest kind OF skating Kinks, and stew.
ards Of the ships arriving here have
been providing themselves with roller
skates.
Passengers who have been depart
ing recently on ocean liners have
been surprised to see stewards glide
up to them on skates and take their
handbags. Between sailings races and
athletic games have been held. One
ship that arrived recently had 60 stew
ards who had roller skates.
II Is explained that the length of the
new piers had made the problem OF
getting from the street to the waiting
ships hard one to deal with, and the
skates have solved the difficulty.
As far as can be learned the idea
OF skating on piers began when a
steward Of the Hamburg.American
line went to q rattle In Hoboken re-
Gently and was given a pair OF roller
skates as prize. He tried them on
the pier with such success that the
