ELEPHANTS Wisdom.

In response to an inquiry as to what
was the cleverest act he ever knew an
elephant to perform, a British road Of
ficer told how once, when unloading
some steel tubing from a ship, 1t was
the elephants task to carry the pipes
by means of his trunk from one part
Of the wharf 10 another.
The pipes had been oiled to prevent
them from rusting, and when the ele-
plant took one up 1t slipped from his
grasp. He tried 1t again with the same
result. and at last seemed to compre-
bend what was the reason for his fail
ure, for he soon afterward pushed the
pipe with his foot to a spot where
there was a pile Of sand and then
rolled the pipe backward and forward.
The sand, owing to the oil, adhered to
the tube, and the elephant then put
his trunk around it and carried it with
ease. He applied the same means to
the other tubes without aid or sugges-
ton from his mahout.

THE CAUSE OF
CHANGED WEATHER

The oldest inhabitant does not
recall such long spell of spring
weather in winter. Down in Silver
City the rose bushes are budding
and the surrounding country is
putting on the aspect of spring.
A phenomenal change in the
course of the Japan current which
flows from the equator is said to
he the cause. Sea captains report
that it has shifted so miles to the
eastward with the result that
Alaska is experiencing unheard of
weather from the result of the
warm water on the coast. Here
are some of the readings of the
thermometer in the latter part of
January: Sitka 48 degrees above
zero; Velde 80 and Nome only a
few hundred miles from the north
pole go.
This is the supposed cause of the
shifting of the current from its
usual course. The tides are
largely caused by the moon
attraction. Our satellite is now
5000 miles nearer to the earth
than it 400 years
according to the astronomers and
acting in conjunction with the
sun may have caused tidal changes
which have affected the climate of
The whole coast. In the interior
Of Alaska the thermometer ranges
Is degrees higher than ever noted
before. Let US hope that the
Japan current will stay where it
is -Exch .r2,.

that the work OF construction will

are quite optimistic and as they are

AN IMPORTANT INDUSTRY.

A few words about the rock crush
er which has been running on full
time the past two weeks, the seven
O'Clock whistle being one OF the vel
come sounds that our citizens hear
every morning, will not be out Of
place. The plant is running on ma
terial for county roads and II now
looks as II large amount OF this
will be needed this season. A rock
crusher is one OF the most useful In
dustries any community can have as
Il not only affords payroll but It's
road material constantly adds TO the
value OF the farms along the high
ways where II is used. In this age
when good roads are appreciated
every community should have Just
such a plant as the schell and schell
rock crusher. II not only makes
material for the country highway
but for city streets, and taken all to-
gether is an important adjunct to a
progressive community.
