There is field where daisies grow,
Where simple rivers seaward how,
Where blue's shove ua green below.
Just children wander there
There is garden full of aow'rs,
And butterflies and golden hours,
where pleasure tends the dsy-dresm bow'rs.
Daughters of Eve walk there.
There is path where night flowers bloom,
Where glow worms chase the pressing gloom,
Where Life's the bride sad Youths the
The sons Of men wslS there
There is road where Autumn reigns.
Where leaves are se,e or strew the plains.
Where summer yields to Winters pains.
Even the wise come there!
There is place where skies rain tears,
Where gaunt trees rise and shadowy fears,
Where every foosstep gals and sears.
only the fool comes there!
But there's the he where daisies grow,
Where simple rivers sesward how,
Where blues above and green below.

Dear II. B. FrieRos:
We can understand how NJ. A. B.
appreciates the poem she furnished for
this issue. The spring is coming, even
though the snow lies deep on the ground
and the mercury fingers near the zero
mark, so imagine our niece who changes
her location frequently, always during the
winter season looks forward te the time
when in her own home she shall again see
the fields of daisies and the familiar smil-
ing waters.
A day or two ago received q message
from Mrs. Dieter in the form OF a coilec-
ton Of handsome postcards. There was one
scene OF an orchard in North Yakima, and
another of the gathering of peaches, and
another OF two monster apples, and
those OF flowers were charming. The
western part of our country is presenting
wonders in the fruit .line. If any OF you
who read this visited the Mechanics fair
last fall in Boston, You can testify to the
display OF mammoth apples from Montana
and other states in that section.
We hear with regre. that Sister B. is
very poorly. She has the kindest love and
sympathy of the friends OF the column.
Our sympathy also goes out to Janet,
who has recently lost q son.
The following was passed to me by o. to
be inserted in the column. The title really
is "How / Earned my Dollar.
One pleasant day when we had met
And learned that We were ont of debt
Because home mission dues were paid,
Some one proposition made,
That we could now q dollar earn.
By Some new way, or crook or turn.
So that each pockesbook should yield
One dollar for the foreign field.

Within my mind saw the cssn.

But thinking of distant friend
said: ITO her the shawl III send"

so now without the shawl IN go,

BIG SWING SPAN
BRIDGE BUILDING

The Southern Pacific company is
erecting steel bridge across the
Sacramento river that contains
the heaviest swing span of any
bridge in the world. This span is
500 feet in length and its weight
is 100000 pounds. The entire
bridge, however, will weigh more
tn n 100000, pounds when it
has all been placed in position
upon the heavy concrete piers.
There are only two steel bridges
in the country that have swing
spans that exceed the new Sacra-
mento river bridge in length. One
is across the willamette river and
is part of the Spokane, Portland
and Seattle railway system. Its
weight, however. is only 5,40O, 900
pounds 100000 pound: less than
that Of the Sacramento river
bridge. The Omaha Terminal COM
pny operates a large steel bridge
across the Missouri river that has
a swing span $40 feet in length,
bu' the steel is Of much lighter
construction, the weight being
only 5, 10000 pounds.
The new Sacramento river
bridge Of the Southern Pacific is
part Of the double tracking of the
Hartman lines. 1t will contain
not only two tracks for trains, but
a concrete wagon road and auto
mobile road. -Ex changc.

THE new WEIGHTS
ANO MEASURES LAW

Professor S. c. Dinsmore, now
at the head of the pure food and
drug commission for Nevada. and
who has had charge of the work
for the last several years, was
yesterday appointed by the board
of university regents, to have
charge of the enforcement of the
weights and measures law as
passed by the last Legislature.
Although the law became effective
on the 30th of last June, the
rigid enforcement will not COM
mence until the first of the year.
1t was calculated by the regents
that at least six weeks will be
necessary in which to secure the
complete set of weights ;and meas
ures and have them standardized
by the bureau of weights and
measures at " ash ington, d. c.
Prof. Dinsmorc will be assisted
in his work by Ellsworth Bennett.
and it is possible that Bennett will
carry on all the field work, while
his chief will confine his lahors in
the laboratory. At the present
time Prof. Dinsmorc is husilN
engaged in making AN lysce %
sugar bec's and soil thai we're sent
iGio his office from tie Fallou
district, ard it will take sever, |
weeks Ia clean up uli work on

that everything will be i: rtadi.

Of the weights and measures Law.

A SAGEBRUSH REMOVER

F. A. Remington Of Lake, Ore.
gon, has invcntd a saEebrush re-
mover which promises to reduce
the cost of removing The undesir-
able plant from raw land about
so per cent. The arrangement is
simple being modelled much like
an old fashioned stock or pea rake,
as used to gather the product into
windrows.
The remover not only gets the
plant from the roots up, but stirs
the ground to a depth of from D
to Inches, thus distributing the
vegetable mould and form ing a
new bed so that when the land is
plowed deeply it is in fairly good
shape, as far as initial work is
concerned to plant and get a crop.
The device cost Mr.. Remington
about $50, and with four horses
he is able 20. handle from five to
ten acres of sagehrush Il day.

DON'T WORRY. ABOUT STEEL

Nheh the narrowing news va.
discIns, by the public press T. at
tn" government had flied suit for
the dissolut of the steal trust
a great many ostimablc but
nerv Us shareholders FASTENED to
dump their stock upon the market.
Whcrupon it was speedily grabbed
by individuals not so nervous, and
more of the same asked for.
The cooler blnoded ores who
failed to become panic stricken at
the hugaboo of dissolution have
logic on their side. If steel trust
stocks real value is not drowned
by the water in its capitalization,
why should holders worry over
such trifle as a dissolution suit?
Granting the possibility that the
present generation will live to see
a decision finally reached by the
Supreme court, what then? Even
if after fight of several years it
should be held that monOpoliZing
steel isn't "rcaso nable" con.
spiracp in restraint of trade and
the trust should be dissolved,
is the e anything to prevent Mr..
Morgan, Mr.. Gary and their as
Gociates from still hOldina "cOn-
ferenccs?.' Would not "gcntle-
mems agreements be just as
elusive and just as vicious as ever?
The iron mines would still be
under the ground and the steel
mills over it. The country would
continue to need the steel.
Since Standard Oil "dissolved,"
why should dissolution have ter
rors for any trust? Have you
noticed any Standard Oil stock
holders trying to pass off their
stock certificates for a cup Of
coffee and a sandwich to sustain
life in their starving bodies while
they seek a new job Humboldt
