We have tired out the Dixie and figure

miles. That is not fast enough. Per

faster. and perhaps the Frenchman with

Twenty-Five builders of boats will have
exhibits at the coming motor boat show.
There will be in all 100 exhibitors, and
each exhibit will be either boat or an
engine or something pertaining to boat.
In the fleet of boats there will be seven
teen cruising craft-that is, boats with
accommodations for living on board and
capable of making long journeys. These
will range from twenty-six to sixty feet
in length, and seven Will be more than
forty feet long. The interest will be di-
vided between the cruisers and speed
boats, and as the fashions in new craft
are first shown at this show, all motor
boatmen are anxious to see what will be
the styles for the coming year.
Among the improvements to be shown

the automobile motorist has been at a

Portland Live Stock Show.

PORTLAND, Ore. Jan. 9.-Believ-
ing that the second annual livestock
show to be given at the Union Stock
yards March Is, 10 and 20 is as
worthy of support as the Country
club fair and races a committee OF 10
business men interested in the live
stock business of the northwest have
arranged to call on the members of
the county court and ask for an ap-
preparation of $1,000 to be spent for
premiums.
A total of $4,000 is to be spent for
premiums. The contribution asked
of the county is an amount Identical
to that appropriated for. the Country
club. There is to be no admission
fee for the show.
"We hold that nothing will incI ease
the taxable property of the state any
faster than the live stock industry"
said ID. y. Lively general manager of
the show, yesterday.
"In but a short time the live stock
business of Portland-the cash paid
out for live stock--has grown until it
amounts to 81. 600, 900 month or Sl2,
600, 600 year. The present rate of

statement that in 10 years the live
stock business of Portland will amount
to Sc, 900, 900 a month or in the
neiehborhood of S75, 100000 a year.
The experience of Fort Worth where
the live stock business increased from

back duck
The Indian Runner duck is not in
clined to fatten so readily as other
varieties. It's name originated from
the fact that this duck has running
rather than a waddling motion. ln

and gray. At the joining of the head
and bill there is narrow band of

Duck eggs are in demand by con
fectioners as they impart a glaze to
their icing, which cannot be had
with hen eggs. For making plum
buildings, duck eggs are more econom-

larger in size and richer. In the
household of the writer duck eggs
are used in making all kinds of cakes,

n A FORMER article some pictures
were exhibited Of the wonderful
creatures of the deep sea--animals
whose progentors apparently sought
the gloom of the oceans bottom in
preference to remaining in the brighter
world of shallow water above
We saw how, many of these animals,
in order to find their way about in the
sunless depths that surround them,
have developed phosphorescent organs
which enable them to provide a light
of their own. while others, as if aban-
doning the use of eyes altogether
have gradually lost the organs of Wis
ion possessed by their relatives above.
We also saw that these deep sea ami
mails. living where there is no sunlight
to bring out the effects of color, are
generally black and destitute of the
brilliant markings possessed by crea-
lures which revel in the sunlight
Today we show pictures of animals
which inhabit parts of the sea bed
which do not lie so deep that some
sunshine can not penetrate there, and
which. in contrast with the inhabitants
of the great abysses, are so brilliantly
adorned with colors that naturalists in
describing them have to compare them
with the most glorious gems, such as
rubies. emeralds and sapphires. They
exceed the most beautiful flowers in
splendor, because their bodies are fire.

sea anemones are inexpressibly beau
tiful. Yet amongs these splendid crea
lures are found some which are not
only without beauty of color, but so
shapeless that they look rather like
bits of rock or stone than living ami
mails Some, too, seem to conceal such
beauty as they possess from all outer
view. The outside of the oyster is
rugged and repulsive but within the
shell, when exposed to light, some
times exhibits a marvellous play of
prismatic color.

seems strange that objects whose
beauty depends entirely upon the play

except when they are accidentally

ngs.
