THE OYSTER.

H. L, P.-You are away off
I'm thinking that the oyster was
unknown in Europe before the
discovery of America. Your oys-
ter is a very ancient institution,
and a most honorable one. From
time immemorial poets have sung
of him and orators have dwelt
upon his charms. Juvenal, the
most illustrious of all satirists,
enlivened the literary charms of
the reigns of Trojan and Hadrian
with his comments on the oys-
ter: and the comments were not
satirical either, but warmly COM
mandatory The oyster, the true
cosmopolite, is found pretty near
~ everywhere. and was the de-
light of the world for ages upon
ages before the man from Genoa
found the shores Of America.

w TALKING through the gal
wv lery of statuary Of the

white, carved nude figure OF

strength of youth.
Standing behind him on a high

form of woman; and this wom-
an was leaning. over. her face
turned toward him and her lips
about to be pressed upon his

and saw that on the face OF the
youth was an expression Of
deathly agony, and then I noted
that the muscles OF that splendid
body were tense with awful pain.
And in that one glance I saw
that the woman's body was the
body of a tigress-that only her
face was beautiful-and that the
arms ended in claws that were
digging into the vitals of the man
as she drew his face to hers.
Suddenly feeling the need of
fresh air, 7 turned and went out
upon the street.

Editor The Georgian
In a recent issue of your
paper l note an article by Mr.
Simon Wolf. of Washington,
d. c., "A Comment on the
Frank Case" / should like
to offer a few reflections
touching this case and a criti-
cism or so on this article of
Mr.. VOLTS.
First. as touching the opin-
ion OF Judge Roam; whether II
is discreet or indisCreet on
the part Of the presiding
judge to express an opinion
on n jury trial has nothing to
do with the verdict of the
jury II the opinion of the
Judge as to the guilt or in
nocence Of the accused should
cut any figure with the jury
in their finding verdict, then
by virtue of that fact, the
Judge has overstepped his
prerogative and robbed the
jury of their rights under the
law, In making this state
ment of course We refer TO
the passing on the facts in
the case. The Judge has
nothing more to do with the
facts i'm a criminal case as
given to the jury than a spec
tatur in the courtroom.

The one at Arlington has taken two
hundred thousand dollars Besides its

a machine shop and two wireless labra-
tories. Also. it has accommodations
for twenty wireless operators. com

Bees Among Trees

The bureau of entomology says that
the annual value of honey produced
in the United States is S2O.00O,000. but
the services the bees render in the
fertilizing of the blossoms of fruit is
worth many times s20.00O,00O a year.
We all agree that the blooming period
is very short for apples and pears.
The winds waste pollen, the rains
wash it off and drouth Injuries it.
Authorities estimate that from six to
ten per cent of fertilization where the
bloom is fairly good will make a crop
that allowing for ordinary dropping.
will often require thinning.
The pollination period is shortened
often by rains or cloudy days when
the bees are not working. Apiarists
give the average effective range OF
the money bee at from two to four
miles. They have been traced ten
miles. Summing up the whole matter
the fortunes OF the fruit grower rests
/ in the work of the busy bee We will
admit they can do the most work il
| the shortest time if they are in the or
/ chards w. l. Porter. a prominent
apiarist OF Caldwell Idaho. estimates
that one good hive of thrifty bees
for each two acres of matured apple
orchard is about the proper number
flor the best pollination work. His
observations in Colorado and Idaho
prove that some of the bees work al
lnight during warm weather. When
| in the orchard you will hear bees
among the trees bearing abundant
pollen. Can they do better work il
they do not carry their loads against
the prevailing winds?
/ Professor Herrick has made obser
Sations in Colorado for years on the
relative blooming periods of the fru'tc
and has experimental on the power
of various varieties of apples that pol
i.lintate themselves but his report has
