IN THE GARDEN OF IRELAND

A literary shrine sacred to Tom Moore is the Vale of Avoca. situated in Wicklow. that county which is pOpularly described the Garden of Ireland. It is now proposed to erect a memorial there tO the poet, and as the outcome of a public meeting the promoters of it consider that it's erec- tion in the vale in whose bosom the bright waters meet" would be very appropriate.
 It was while at AvOca that Moore wrote some of his best known melo- dies Nature herself had supplied un- til quite recently a memorial of the bard in the form of an oak tree.

Formerly there was no uniform and methOdical system of fruit culture in Japan except for pears, oranges and grapes. but since 1887. when foreign fruit trees were first introduced, the method of culture according to scien tific principles has been adopted.
 The amount and value of oranges, peaches. plums. persimmons. pears and grapes produced in 19O7-0S reached a surprisingly high figure and large quantities were shipped to the United States, Canada and China.
 Pears and peaches oranges, apples, date plums. quinces. pOmegranates. apricots (Japanese and fOreign), plums. jujube. sweet cherries. grapes. figs and gooseberries and walnuts and chest nuts are the fruits and nuts mostly ap- preciated and eaten in Japan.

USE OF FRUIT IN JAPAN

The use of fruits fin Japan was until recently limited to the upper classes. and the cultivation of fruit trees was not carried on as at the present day. though fruits growing wild in field or forest were gathered and offered for safe. A few fruit trees were grown by householders in their home gardens for private use, but, according tO the oriental Review. little attention was paid to their cultivation. The princi- pal reason appears to have been the climate.
 Although this is warm and moist. producing luXuriant vegetation and beautiful landscapes. yet it does not offer great advantages for the culti- vatiOn of fruit trees.
 Fruits which have been cultivated from ancient days extensively enough to be grown in orchards or vineyards are oranges. pears. plums and grapes. and great attention has always been paid to the different varieties of each.
 The plum was chiefly cultivated and priZed for it's blossoms, and large plum gardens abound in Japan, valued for their beauty and attractiveneSs during their Towering season, in January.
 Such trees as the persimmon. peach. quince. apricot and plum, jujube and ginna are often planted around the home or along the fOotpaths in rich fields. but these are for the most part seedlings and no special attention is paid to them

with reference to the sea, and shore lines are thereby changed. As a re suit of upward movement marine sedi
 mentary rocks may become part of the land, and most of our land areas are in fact occupied by rocks originally de- posted as sedime ts in the sea.
 Sandstone is, perhaps, the simplest example of a sedi entary rock. Ob- viously sandstone was once sand, and again each grain of sand was once part of some older rock. This sand was first erOded and either subjected to great pressure by overlying masses, perhaps thousands of feet thick or ce- mented together by chemical solutions. Where the stone was formed by simple pressure It contains large proportion of open spaces and thus becomes an ideal water bearer. Some standstones will carry as much as 6 qts. of water to the cubic foot of stone. In other varieties the interstices may have been filled with cementing material so that the rock may be for all practical purposes almost as dense as granite.

Washington Mines.

An import nt mining deal is re- ported to be pending in Douglas, says the Arizona Republican. where Bost- wick and Dickson, two well known mining men of the southwest, have place d themselves at the head of the Washington Mines Development con- pany for the purpose of taking over the Washington and Boliver proper ties in northern Sonora, Mexico, gen. erally known as the Washington mines.
 To date there has been upwards of 35,0O0s spent in their development, and there is a body of ore conserva- lively estimated at 25O, ,OOO tons blocked out, running from 3 to per eIt. cop- per, making the cost per ton of ore blocked, II cents.
 The Washington mines are near the properties of the Transvaal Mining company. west of Cumpas. The com pany is vigorously rosecuiing deveI- CPAShN "CA anu ldo h6NtlODtQ large tonnage of both milling and smelling ores. It is the intention of the various companies operating in this district to construct a narrow gauge railroad from Cumpas to their properties as soon as they decide on the installation of reduction works.
 The officials of the Southern Pacific have given the mine owners and con- panles assurance that the railroad will be completed to Cumpas as soon as they are prepared to ship the product of their mines.

The Old Dominion May
 Increase Mems Wages.

The Silver Belt is in receipt of a communication from Thompson, Towle & Company of Boston as follows: Phelps, Dodge x Co.,, who have ad- vanced their miners wages at their mines in Bisbee and Morenci, taking effect August l, from 3.5Os to 3.75s per day, will follow this action at the Old Dominion at Globe, which is controlled by Phelps Dodge interests.
 ''In Bisbee and Morenci some time ago the Phelps Dodge interests sus- pended Sunday work at their mines and the advance in wages there was partially to offset this; but in the case of [ Old Dominion Company the ad- vance was considered necessary to hold their men from going to other camps"
 Upon receipt of this communication the Silver Belt interviewed Superin- tendent George Kingdom of the Old Dominion concerning the reputed raise. Mr. Kingdom would not discuss the matter, saying that he had not re- ceived orders to make any change.
 Ns General Manager G. H. Dowell is absent on his vacation a telegram was sent to General Manager Walter Douglas at Bisbee. Mir. Douglas is highest in control of all Phelps Dodge interests in the west. His secretary replied that MT. Douglas could not be reached and that, therefore, an answer could not be sent the Silver Belt until this morning, too late for publication.
 The above statements are printed by the Silver Belt merely as a matter of news and constitute all the informa- tion obtainable up to the hour of going to press. While the Silver Belt has every confidence in the sources of it's news information 1t can do no harm to say that it's readers will do well to await official announcements ID this condition as to terms and conditions Silver Belt.

The Origin of Rocks.

The geologist divides rocks into three general classes-igneous rocks. originating from the motion magma forced upward from the bowels of the earth, such as granite and the various lavas; sedimentary rocks. consisting of disintegrated particles of the igneous rocks which have been reformed into rocks themse Ives, such as sandstone: and metamorphic rocks, consisting of igneous or sedimentary rocks whose composition has been greatly changed by intense heat, chemical action, or other causes, as for instance, a lime stone that has been changed to mar ble.
 Sedimentary rocks, as stated in the geologic atlas of the U. $. Geological Survey, are usually made up of layers or beds which can be easily separated. These layers are called strata and rocks deposited in such layers are termed stratifed. The surface of the earth is not immovable; over wide regions it very slowly rises or sinks

Trouble at Pilares Mine;
 Work Stops.

Word was brought to Douglas to day by a man who came up from Nacozari on the train that there was trouble at the Pilares mine, owned by the Moct- ezuma Copper company.
 It was stated that work had been dis continued in the mine until such time as General Manager Williams returned Mir. Williams has been away from Nacozari for several days on business. He arrived in Douglas yesterday even- ing and left early this morning for Nae ozari on the railroad motor car.
 No particulars of the trouble at the mine could be learned, of whether there had been any violent action or not.
 The trouble is believed to be on &C., count of the Chinamen who have been employed in the past. It is known that many of the Mexicans have been in- clined to make trouble ever since the insurrection and there have been threats against the Chinamen and some of them have been roughly treated.
 The word from Nacozari today simply stated that work had been discontinued at the mine pending the return of Mr. Williams, and that the trouble had arisen because of the Chinamen in the camp.-DOuglaS International
