come OF the Rothert process which as
Mr.. Merrill says will revolutionize the
steel industry.
Will Make steel at An Early Date
Mr.. Rothert expects to return to
this city in about two weeks and will
devote the remainder of his time in
getting the plant in this city into
operation. While no definite time has
been set he expects to be turning
out the finished product at an early
date in the spring. On account Of
the blockade in the mountains much
Of his machinery is being held up on
the west side which may cause some
delay in getting started. The first ore
to be used will come from the west
side near Hamilton and Barring, Wash.
Men are now engaged in mining this
ore, and several carloads are expected
here in few weeks.

The legislature met in Olympia the
first OF this week and according to
press dispatches the republicans and
democrats entered into an agreement
to leave the progressive members out
in the cold Oh committee appoint
ments and such other little advantages
as accrue to those in temporary con-
troll. To use the language OF the dis
patches, Ito punish the progressives
as severely as possible" 1t is the
same old element in control of both
old parties, believing in the same old
theories of convention rule, the sacred
ness OF judges and the worship Of the
political overload. Progressives be-
lieve in the rule OF the people, ma
jority OF the people. They believe
that judges are just like other men.
Good and bad, and they believe when
a bad one gets on the bench there
should be a way to get rid Of him.
Standpat republicans and democrats
believe the only way to get rid OF a
bad Judge is to wait for him to die.

FARMERS, RANCHERS' and
FRUIT GROWERS COLUMN

Keep the hens busy if you would get
winter eggs. The hen that eats her
fill and goes back on the roost will
not lay many eggs during the winter.
The science OF feeding has been work
ed out by many Of the experiment sta
tons and colleges, but nowhere better
than at Cornell university. Prof Charles
A. Rogers, in an address TO Connecti-
cut poultrymen, explained their method
of feeding which has given some won
derfully good records, says Farm and
Home.
In the morning the hens are fed
~ to pounds mixed grains for 100
Leghorns. At noon green feed or green
cut bone is given and the hoppers Of
dry mash are opened. AT night they
are fed seven to eight pounds of mixed
grain. Grit and oyster she'll are kept
before them at all times. By giving
a light feed OF grain in the morning in
deep litter the hens are kept hungry
and will scratch all day for it. They
should eat from one-third to one-half
as much dry mash as hard grain.

Nor Any Other Day

When a man is nearly frozen from a
ten mile drive on a cold, windy day
he will not stop to read a plank adver-
tisement. But at home in his arm
chair, with his legs crossed before a
cheerful fire, he reads his local paper
and while he is feeling good and has
plenty Of time, picks out the live bust
ness men OF the town from the adver-
tisements in the paper and makes up
his mind where he will trade on his
next trip to town.

There are some thirty-odd progress

somebody should keep tab on them.
They are under pledge to the peo-
pie to do certain things and should

the old tricksters in order to get an
appropriation for road thru his county,

public money for his neighborhood,

. At The present day When so many
plays are being presented which deal
with questionable subjects, it Is a re
lief to turn TO Il drama which breathes
purity and good Fellowship and leads
the way to a brighter view Of life and
humanity. f4f
Such play Is The Rosary" writ
ten by Edward +. Rose, expressly for
Messrs. Rowland and CLIFFORD and
produced by them.
The theme Of the play concerns Il
man and woman happily married and
surrounded with every luxury that
money and culture can secure. But
the husband Is an unbeliever, an
ATHEIST, without faith of am kind,
There is iarrjng note IN the house,

with the peace and love OF its mem
bers. No ono notices this until n
: friend OF the husband comes, Father
Kelly, a. priest of the modern world
with deep insight into human nature
and divine love for his fellow men.
And when stress and trouble comes,
when the home is wrecked and hus-
band and wife arc brought down to the
depths of suffering agony. it is the
priests calm courage and faith that
saves them, drives away the clouds
OF suspicion. doubt. mistrust, and
brings them both into the sunlight of
hope and love.

delightful music is familiar to opera
followers here. though the composition
as whole, has never been presented
here. Shortly after the Hammerstein

Messrs. Aborn gave ii its first English
presentation in America with equal
success and each season it has been

EATS A SQUIRREL AND DIES
e. o. Hale Poisoned by Animal
Which Ate Blighted Nuts.

Hartford, Conn, Nov. 27.-Pto-
maine poisoning from eating gray
squirrel which is known to have eat
en- chestnuts from trees affected by
blight is given as the cause of the
death to-day of Everett o. Hale, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Addison Hale, who
live near the Manchester line.
Although Mr. Hale, who was a
cousin of John H. Hale, the peach
man, had not been we'll of late, it is
not thought his previous condition
caused his death.
Six other persons have died in
Connecticut this fall from eating
blighted chestnuts.
Mr.. Hale was seized with con-
vulsions Monday night. When the
seriousness of his condition was
realized DR.. Thomas G. Sloan was
summoned. All efforts failed to re-
lieve the man and he died in a con-
vulsion.
DR.. Sloan was positive that death
was caused by ptomaine poisoning.
This at first seemed improbable, as
he had eaten nothing unusual. Up
on learning, however, that Mr.. Hale
had eaten some squirrel and that the
chestnut blight was prevalent in this
section the doctor decided that the
squirrel had eaten affected chest
nuts.

SHARKS ANNOUNCE THEIR OWN
CAPTURE,

Sharks are numerous in Magda-
lena bay, on the west coast of the
peninsula of lower California, the
Pacific rendezvous of the American
fleet for target practice. The mons
ters at this point seem to take al
most any kind of bait, and it is rare
ly that a warship is seen at anchor
without from one to half dozen
lines dangling from it's stern
Watching a shark line is tedious
business, but it is strictly necessary
in order that the fisherman may
know when the monster is hooked,
as its frantic rushes, if allowed to go
unchecked, are pretty sure to cause
some part of the line, leader or even
part of its own anatomy to give
way, and result in it's escape. The
old scheme of tying the line around
ones big toe and going to sleep prob
ably would work all right so far as
rousing the fisherman was concern
ed, but the sequel might not leave
him in condition to give undivided
attention to landing his prize. To
this end the officers and sailors have
hit on an ingenious plan. Instead
of taking in their lines when the
dinner gong sounds, or when for any
reason they are on duty elsewhere,
they run a stout piece of marlin
twine from the shark line up to the
steam whistle, leaving it for the
man-eater himself to announce the
event of his being hooked by sound
ing a toot.-Wide World Magazine.

EXCAVATIONS AS A CAUSE OF
EARTHQUAKES.

We note that in contemporary
journal a correspondent has made
the suggestion as to the cause of the
recent earthquake shocks in Pan
ANA, which is more ingenious than
it is convincing. He draws attention
to the fact that over 00,000,000
cubic yards of material has been re-
moved from the Culebra cut and de-
posted elsewhere. This, he argues,
involved a readjustment of weights
on the surface which, taken in con-
nection with such heavy blasts as
that of forty tons of dynamite, which
was used to destroy the Gamboa
dixie, may have had some predispos-
ing effect on the recent earthquake
shocks.

THE MOST NEEDED INVENTIONS

A communication sent to the Sci
entific American by P. e. Edelman,
Minneapolis, Mimi, will undoubtedly
interest a number of our readers.
His list comprises the following
most needed inventions:
/. An electric light as efficient as
the motor.
2. A storage battery as cheap as
dry cells, light, efficient, and fool
proof.
8. A new product which will uti-
liZe or require the use of vast guam
titles of chlorine to advantage.
4. A wireless telephone which will
cost no more and use no more power
than the simple sets now used on
short nter-communicating lines.
5. A glass or substitute therefor
which will withstand strains with
out breaking, without losing the
usual transparency
6. An economical crude oil engine
light enough and adapted for auto
mobiles and similar service.
7. Cheap substitutes for leather
and rubber which have the properties
of the natural material and which
can be made on large scale at low
cost.
8. A lifeboat which will not sink
or capsize and which can be launch
ed safely in a heavy sea.
8. Means to prevent railroad
wrecks which will, within human
error, prevent such wrecks entirely.
10. Real cures for consumption
and cancer.
IL. A detector for radio commun-
ication which without sacrificing the
sensitiveness, rigidity, and practical
bility of present long distance types,
will still be of itself, or in conjunc-

AGRICULTURAL PROGRESS IN
CANADA,

The Canadian government has ap-
propriated a sup of 100000 to
cover period of 10 years beginning
with March 81, 1913, for instruction
and research in agriculture. Part of
this will be applied to furthering the
work of the Federal Department of
Agriculture by assisting and develop
ing the livestock, dairying, fruit
growing and other industries along
lines of investigation, improvements
in transportation, etc.; while agri-
cultural education of all grades will
be materially enlarged. The agricul-
tural colleges are to be improved,
elementary schools and short courses
in agriculture, horticultural and
dairying are to be established, and
agricultural teaching is to be intro
duced into the public schools. The
sum Of $4,000 year is allotted to
veterinary colleges.

they got turn of the sort they
hardly bargained for.
They found themselves being am
bushed by a lion, and we know on

ed, and monsieur shut on the clutch

No sooner had madame revived
than they encountered a panther.
This was too much of a good thing.
Monsieur was about to say so with
all his Gaelic eloquence when the
explanation turned up.

plain that they were working off a

TAR PAPER TO
PROTECT TREES

A correspondent from Venango
County wrote to Prof. H. A. Surface,
State Zoologist, Harrisburg, Pa, and
asked "if tar paper would be all
right to put around young trees to
protect them from the rabbits which
are very bad this year" The in
ers' felt and wrap them with good
strong cord so it will hold" To
this communication Professor Sur
face replied as follows:
at will be all right to put tarred
paper around young trees to pro-
tect them from rabbits and mice. l
can say that this can be done all
right il the papers are removed in
the spring, but if they are left
around the trees during the summer
they protect the woolly aphis, which
is liable to become serious pest,
and also certain insects that may
injure the trees, and also that make
the bark tender, and liable to in
jury from various causes. In other
words, recommend them for use
only during the winter.
Take a piece of paper Of such
size that it will make collar, and
lap over when bent around the tree.
Tie it in place by the use of several
strings. See to it that there is no
rubbish in the way of leaves, weeds
or grass standing under it. In other
words, push it down into the loose
earth and mound other earth around
it an inch or two. Remove them in
the spring time"

MEMORY PLAYED STRANGE
TRICKS,

In later life Emerson's memory
played him some strange tricks. JAS
Cabot, his biographer, says that he
met him one day in the streets Of
Boston, apparently at loss for some
thing, and asked him where he was
going. "To dine" said Emerson,
with an old and very dear friend.
/ know where she lives, but hope
you won't ask me her name" Then
he went on to describe her as "the
mother of the wife Of the young
mantle tall man-who speaks so
WELL" and so on, until Cabot guess
ed to whom he was referring. En-
erson was often at loss for the
names of common objects. Once,
when he wanted an umbrella, he
said, II can't tell its name, but 1
can tell its history. Strangers take
it away" This failing led to pa
thetic scene at Longfellow's funeral.
After gazing long at the face of his
lifelong friend, as he lay in his cof-
fin, Emerson said to a bystander,
"That gentleman was sweet, beau
tiful soul; but 1 have entirely for
gotten his name. London Chroni-

STOP CATARRH!
Unless Properly Treated With Hy-
omei This Disease May Become
Serious.

If you have catarrh, indicated by
shifting, stopped up head, droppings
in the throat and morning choking,
there is an irritated state of the
mucous membrane which affords an
ideal condition for the growth Of dis
ease germs.
Do not allow these dangerous
germs to begin the destruction Of
your health.
The easiest, simplest, quickest,
surest and cheapest way to check
catarrh is by breathing Hyomei.
This wonderful medicated air treat
ment does not upset the stomach,
but is breathed in through the Hy-
omei inhaler, directly following and
surely destroying all disease germs
that may have been inhaled-the
tissues of the throat, nose and lungs
are quickly healed and vitalized.
Money refunded by Peil, the drug
gist, to anyone whom Hyomei fails
to benefit. A complete outfit costs
but $1.00. Dec. 2&9
