Is LIVING CHEAPER ABROAD
THAN IN UNITED STATES?

Americans going over to live in
Europe are not only nearly always
content to accept much lower stand
ard of comfort than they exact in the
United States, but in large number
of cases deliberately trough 1T IN
way they would never dare to do at
home. Were they contented in Ameri-
ca with the same seventh-story room
or studio in a house where elevators
and bathrooms are unknown; il they
cared to eat at cheap East Side restau-
rants of a corresponding quality TO
those they frequent in the artistic
quarters of European cities, where
tablecloths are rare and the food
often appetizing and well cooked, 1T is
true--s pushed across by a not over
clean waiter; if they put up with
waiting for hours in the queue OF
theater to see play or hear a con-
cert for 40 cents-in short, II they
chose to ignore entirely all the con-
ventions and comforts in which they
have been brought up, they would, OF
course, find that they could live IN
New York or Chicago on the same
amount as on the other side of the At
lantic.
There is no doubt that generations
ago man could live in Paris on, say
three quarters of what he f und neces
sarv in the big cities of America, but
conditions have changed since then

UNDIMINISHED SUPPLY
OF MAPLE SUGAR

From the time the earliest explorers
dicovered Indians making sugar from
the maple tree until the present day
the production of maple sugar has
been an important industry in the
United States, is the interesting infor-
nation contained in Farmers Bulle-
tin 5l6 soon to be issued by Secretary
Wilson The industry is purely Ameri-
can, Canada being the only country
outside of the United States that pro
duees the product. The bulletin says:
"Maple sugar and maple syrup are
considered delicacies, and are not pro-
duced in such quantities as formerly.
The aggregate of all pure maple pro-
duets and the many limitations may be
the same. for it is said that were all
the maple trees cut down, and thus the
supply of maple sap cut off, no drop in
the quantity of syrup or sugar would
be noted Within the last six or seven
wears there has been renewed tend
ency toward the production of bet
ter grade of maple products.
nsMaple syrup or maple sugar pre-
pared by the best methods is a hight
colored, pleasant-tasting product. Con.
trary characteristics are the result OF
uncleanly methods and possibly sour
sap in ninety nine cases out of hun
dred. and were manufacturers to take
greater care in their methods their re-
suits would show Improvement. This
better grade may not appeal to many
people who have been accustomed &c
the dark, stronger grades.
In relation to the present growth OF
the sugar maple the bulletin states:
s'Within its wide range the sugar
maple appears as predominant tree
lonlv in the New England states, New
York, southern Canada, northern and
western Pennsylvania and in parts OF
Ohio. Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wis
consin and Minnesota. In the south
ern Appalaehians it occurs in scatter
ed bodies where climate conditions arr
similar to those of the north. In The
extreme northern part of New Yori
state and the adjacent district of Que
bee the forest growth is often almos
gpure maple, and even considerably Tar
ther south, where beech and birch be
come associate trees, the sugar mapl
holds its own as the dominant species
Tn northern Pennsylvania, at an alti
tude of over 1000 feet, the mixture !
much the same as il IS in New YORK
In Ohio, Indiana and Illinois simila
condition is found; but as the iill
country disappears the maple retreat
to the richer and damper soils, leavin
great areas to the oaks and ehesi
nuts.

INDIANS IN
A PROSPEROUS CONDITION

A general council of Indians of the
Pacific northwest has just been con
cluded at Fort Spokane, Wash, where
is located the Colvile reservation
agency. Six hundred Indians, many
of them rich in lands and stock,
gathered for final settlement of
claims to reservation allotments.
Three hundred of these came with a
petition asking that they be adopted
by the Colville tribe so that they
might secure division of the land
All who are adopted not only receive
some of the land, but share in the
moneys due the tribe from the gov
ernment under treaties. A remark
able feature of the gathering was the
fact that only one out of ten wore the
Indian blanket, or was able to speak
any of the tribal languages.

LARGE CITY FOR EITHER

Two seaport cities. one at each end
of the Panama canal are now in pro-
cess of making In time both Cristo-

facilities for water-E0rn9 commerce
surpassed by few "A the famous ports
of America for they will be develop
ed in accord with American ideals, as
they are both within the zone that is
under American control The port ia
eiIties, which the government is pro-
viding at either end of the canal, are
in keeping with the magnitude and
Importance of the great waterway.
Lining the approaches to the canal
on the Pacific side and at right angles
to the channel,piers 200 feet wide and
1000 feet long are being constructed
with dock slips 800 feet wide between.
A drydock capable of accommodating
vessels of the largest type is to be
constructed at Balboa and an auxili-
airy dock of similar dimensions is to be
also provided. Excavations to pro-
vide space for the docks is now in
progress. A small drydock, built dur
ing the DeLesseps era, is already in
use at the Atlantic end of the canal.
In addition the government will pro-
vide an immense storage station for
coal, fuel oil and food commodities at
the Pacific entrance. There will be a
plant for making any sort of repairs
to ship and capable of building a
liner of the first class outright if need
be. Naval ships of any type can be
handled in the huge drydock on the
Pacific side. The permanent enterprise
which the United States government
will establish at either end of the
canal will alone be adequate to the
sustaining of a city of considerable
rtance.-Chronicle.

EASTERN NEVADA SCALES
SAID TO Be LITTLE SHY

Six prosecutions under the pure
food act for violations within the
state of Nevada are contemplated by
the department of weights and meas
ures under charge of Prof. 5. G. Dins-
more at the university agricultural
college, as a result of recent investi-
cations into the quality of goods sold
hv certain mercantile companies
throughout the state. The suits have
not vet been filed and viii not be Civ
EN- out until then.
A recent investigation of drug
stores all over the state has just been
concluded by the department, particu-
lar samples having been taken of
iodine, eamphor, ferric chloride and
Fowler IS solution of arsenic. These
are all drugs that are made by the
druggists themselves and must be or
certain prescribed strength before It
is permissible to put them on the
market. In only two or three IN
stances were they found below the
standard--a remarkable showing, ae-
cording to Prof Dinsmore, who de-
clares that the drug trade in this state
compares very favorably with that OF
any state in the Union.
In the examination of weights and
measures conditions were found rath-
er bad in the eastern part OF the
state, where SO per cent of the scales
and measures used were found to be
inaccurate out of 1000 different tests
made. In other counties the per cent
was found lower, although good
~anv violations were discovered.

GROWING COMMERCE
OF THE PACIFIC SLOPE

The industry and energy which have
become so strikingly characteristic of
the citizens who live upon the Pacific
slope play an important part in the
story of our foreign commerce. For
while the chief seaports upon the At
laatic coast receive much the greater
part of the importations, yet the Pa
cific coast is exporting proportionate-
ly or relatively more than the Allan
tic seaports are doing. In other
words, the gain in the money value of
exports which has been made by the
Pacific slope is proportionatelv greater
than the gain which has been made
upon tie Atlantic slope. The Washing
ton authorities report the Pacific
slope gain as about 40 per cent, where
as the gain of the Atlantic coast ports
was only little in excess of six per
cent.
Behind these figures are to be found
strong evidence of very great changes
in the story of transportation. The
railroads which have terminals upon
the Pacific slope are apparently to in
crease their business more rapidly
proportionately, than are the rail
roads which have terminals upon the
tlantic slope. Within the next five
or six wears VIC shall probably discov
er very heavy gains in the exports
from the Gulf coasts and the Mexican
border. These changes, however, viii
ultimately prove of advantage to the
entire United States. They foreshad
ow prosperity of which every eommun
ity will receive its reasonable, al
though in many case indirect, share

DANGER IN WATER SUPPLY
SUBJECT OF BULLETIN

Over large part of the country
streams and rivers form the most
available source of water supply, and
in thinly settled regions they are usu-
ally free from contamination, although
even here tanbark plant or sawmill
may lessen the desirability of the
water for domestic uses.
Miners, especially coal miners, may
likewise discharge into streams their
drainage of acid and otherwise pol
lutte waters with similar effect, but
the most common source of pollution
is the sewage from towns and cities.
In fact, practically all the larger
streams and even many of the smaller
ones are highly polluted by such sew
age or by refuse from various manu-
featuring plants. 1t is true that such
streams become gradually purified and
under ordinary conditions may be
fairly safe, but the periodic outbreaks
of typhoid fever that occur among the
users of their water are sufficient to
indicate the imperfect nature OF this
publication.
Large cities without other accessi-
hle sources will doubtless continue to
use river waters, but these waters are
now, as a rule, scientifically filtered
before distribution. On most farms,
however, other and safer sources are
available, and stream waters that are
known to have received drainage or
sewage from any source should not
be used for drinking.
Many facts regarding suburban and
farm water supplies are discussed in

Geological Survey, which has just

vey, Washington, d. G.

Democrats of the state are reported to
have busted themselves and have kept
the wires to Carson CITY sizzling with
messages to Ross to make the appoint
ment. With a Democratic attorney
general, that party would continue to
have a majority on several important

reason it is considered likely that
Ross vii name Bakers successor be-
fore Governor Oddie can reach the
