GALyESTON'S EXAMPLE.

The Galveston causeway, said to be
the greatest engineering achievement
Of its kind in the world, was formally
opered and dedicated to traflic be
tween Galveston island and the city
proper yesterday.
The structure is 1852 feet long,
including 2,472 feet of reinforced con
crete arch bridge work, 10O-foot lift
bulge, 1880 feet of causeway on the
island and 3,640 feet on the maihisrG.
The structure is &C feet wide AID
provides for railroad and interurhan
tracks and roadways for vehicles and
foo, passengers. There are twenty
eight arches in the bridge, in four
series of seven arches each. The
.auheway has been three years in
building and cost $1,5OO,O0O.
The work is the last of the evtsn-
sive improvements that have been
made by the city since the great fiCoi
which laid it in ruins twelve years
ago. The things that have beer done
by this city are nothing short Of mar
yelous. The city has prosperaj, has
grown, has borne its improve nents
wonderfully well and has been the
envy of all American cities for * mu
nicipal perfection.
Galveston has done all of this un-
der commission form of government
What Galveston has done other cities
may do. Joplin would do well to heel
what has been done in the city on the
gulf Joplin News-Herald.

cooperative Farm Finance Would
Mean New Era-Study of
European Methods

Cooperative farm finances will
usher in a yeritable new era. 1t will
enable farmers of the most limited
means to pool their resources, so that,
upon their joint credit, they may be
able to borrow money at reasonable
rates for the years operations. Such
accommodation is the most pressing
need of the greatest number of farm
ers. Another vital need is permanent
loans on farm mortgage at reasonable
rates with easy terms OF repayment.
This need will be met by the new
system of cooperative land mortgage
banks.
The cooperative farm finance con-
ference at Nashville in April was at
tended by delegations from twenty
four states, who reported the great
est enthusiasm everywhere upon this
subject. 1t is now realized that, if
agriculture can be supplied with suffi-
cient cash, credits and cooperation,
its future will be brilliant indeed.
But the Nashville conference wise
ly favored the deliberation and care
in establishing in America the sys-
tens of cooperative farm finance
which, in Europe, have successfully
supplied rural needs for more than a
century. Therefore, the conference
proposed that select committee of
two businesslike farmers from each
state be appointed to sail for Europe
in June to make a personal study for
three months of the way European
farmers cooperate to obtain cash and
credits, and buy together and sell to-
gether.
Meanwhile, says Farm and Home,
it is hoped that congress will prompt
ly enact the Gronna- Norris resolution
providing for a national commission
on farm finance, with an appropra-
tion sufficient to make an elaborate
inquiry into every phase of the matter
and publish a set of pamphlets bear
ing upon the different details.

VOLCANO THAT BECAME A LAKE

Unique among the natural wonders
Of America ls the lake IN Crater Lake
National park in Oregon, whicn is
described IN publication entitled
Geological History OF Crater Lake"
just issued by the department oil the
interior. The traveller VINO, from the
rocky rim OF the lake, looks across
its limpid waters to the cliffs beyond
stands where once the molten lava Of
Mount Mazama boiled and seethed in
its efforts to find an outlet, for Crater
lake is all that remains of "a great
volcano that ages ago reared its lofty
Cascade range.
Before the Cascade range existed
the region now included in the state
of Oregon was a great laval plateau
that extended from the Rocky noun
tains TO the present coast range. Grad
Tally mountain-m making forces became
operative; the surface of the plateau
was arched and there rose the great
mountain system which is now known
as the Cascade range. With the hard
enine Of the crust the centers of erup-
tions became fewer until they were
confined to few high mountains that
were built up by the flows Of molten
lava. in this way were created Hood,
Rainier, and Mazama, from whose
sides and lofty SUBMITS streams OF
lava poured across a desolate land
Hood and Rainier still lift their snowy
caps to the clouds and fling a defiant
challenge to the mountaineer TO scale
their steep, ice-covered slopes. Ma
zama alone is gone, engulfed Ia the
earth from which it came. In what
is left of its caldera lies Crater ieke.
Mount Mazama in its prime rose to
height of over $4,000 feet abo 70 the
sea. Mount Scott, which towers above
Crater lake on the east, was only a
minor cone on the slope of Mount Ma
zama. The portion Of the mountain
thai has been destroyed was equal in
size to Mount Washington in New
Hampshire and had volume Of sew
cn.een cubic miles.
From the crest of the rim sur
rounding the lake the traveller be-
holds twenty miles of unbroken cliffs
which range from 500 TO nearly 1000
feet in height. The clear waters of
the lake reflect the vivid colors of
the surrounding walls and whether IN
the soft glow of early morning, in
the glare of the monday sun, or in
the rosy hues of the dying day, the
view is one of awe-inspiring grandeur
ana beauty.
This publication contains a detailed
account of the formation of this won.
G.sful work of nature. 1t is well IL
lustrated by photographs and is writ
ten in nontechnical language so that
it may be readily understood by the
reader who has not the advantage of
scientific training.

EGGS IN EGYPT.

The Matching of eggs by means of
artificial heat has been practiced in
China and Egypt from prehi5torlt
times. In the matter country there
still exist ancient egg g-hatcheries or
manuals that have been in contind-
GUS use in the same family for many
generations. These incubators cum
sist of large brick owens that will
hold about thirty to sixty thousand
eggs at time. The fire is built in
side the oven and is watched careful
ly for ten days, after which no ad.
ditional heat is necessary. The meth
cd of building the fires and maintain
ing the mso as to preserve the right
temperature are trade secrets that are
jealousy guarded and usually KEEP. in
the family. About Go to 10 per cent of
the eggs are said to be successfully
hatched by these methods. The pro-
duction of eggs for the export trade
has come to be very important in
dustry Of Egypt. During the winter
of f911-19l2 the export amounted to
s3,608,O00 eggs, having value of
S627,0 That is at the rate of about
8 cents dozen. Compared to the
prices paid in this country last win
ter, it would almost seem that II might
pay to bring eggs to New York from
Cairo. Most of the Egyptian eggs go
to England; last year 7i,0Oo,00O, or
nearly 80 per cent, were sent there.
France had over three million, and
the rest Of them were divided among
a number of countries. The eggs

shipped from Egypt are generally
smaller than those we are accustomed
to; but when we consider the amount
of food material contained in them,
even these small eggs are very cheap
when compared with prices in this
country or in Europe.-Scientific

matter nearly all night and at a mass
meeting and as daylight was break
