skate on salt.

A skating rink made of salt was
recently exhibited and skated upon at
the Berlin Zoo" Walter Isendahl, in
the Scientific American, says 1t was
produced by purely chemical means
and without the employment Of a
costly refrigerating process. 1t re-
sembled ice in every way, was odor-
less and proof against any heat below
SO degrees Fahrenheit.
This salt rink was made after a
process invented and patented by Dr..
Edward Arnold. 1t can be applied
over wood. cement or asphalt, or
boards can be coated with it and as
sembled to form floors. 1t Is applied
in successive layers and the SNOW"
abraded by the skates can be collect
ed and melted with fresh material.
The quantity required for a single
layer is about one-flfth Of a pound
per square foot A fresh layer applied
twice a week sufflces to keep an ordi-
nary rink in repair

angles to which were built coy,
high-backed seats. The house is
finished in hand-polished light oak.
The living room is made attractive
with paintings, flowers, and quaint
furniture, some of which has been
handed down in Mrs. Smiths fam
lily for almost two centuries.
From the living room we go in
to an electrically equipped kitchen.
The dining table and a seat along
each side are built into one side Of
the kitchen. Wires were attached
to this table SO that you could press
button and turn on the heat to
cook the meal, without rising from
the table. There was the electric
stove and the tank of water being
heated, and all the dainty nickeled
utensils. The sink had two tubs
for laundry, one being covered by
the draining board when not in use.
A cold air cupboard had been built
in the kitchen, which was open
from the cellar. Each shelf was
made of wire screening, permitting
the air to circulate freely, and it
was like having a cellar without
climbing any stairs. The cellar was
cement lined and a model Of neat
ness.
The bath room was unique. The
tub was built into an end of the
end of the room, and smoothly
cemented in with rounded corners
SO that there was no place for
speck of dirt to collect.

features about this homeland it is

Portable homes, where people know
how to live and enjoy themselves
Driving out through the country
roundabout, you notice that all the

within a radius of three or four
miles is made to produce in the
best possible manner. There are
many orchards-and many methods
Of caring for them. One orchard

clean as parlor floor; and yet
others grow alfalfa year after year

/ between the rows. There is on,
orchard Of 40, and another of Of
acres, near town the fruit industry
is growing to truly enormous pro
portions.
Field peas are a good crop; they
are grown mostly for seed, on con-
tract Potatoes do well. Alfalfa
and red and white and alsike clio
vers are beautiful, bountiful crops
and flourish wonderfully well
Many small flocks of sheep Craze
in the tame pastures. 1t is inter
esting to recall that the large sheep
owners of the previous decade
prophesied that the settling of the
country would mean the extinction
Of the sheep industry. On the con-
trary, the sheep are there, anf, are
better fed and more prosperous
than ever. and no wool is lost by
being torn out on the rough sage
brush of decade ago. .
One could not fairly write the
story Of the Twin Falls tract, and
especially the city of Twin Falls,
without telling Of the wonderful
schools. 1t is not an exaggeration
to say that they are the absolute
best anywhere in the West. The
magnificent high school building,
and the fine ward schools, have no
competitors. The people are justly
proud of these schools, of their
buildings, and grounds, and their
loyal support. The little red
school house" is thing of the past
on the Twin Falls tract. Instead,
has come the fullest development
of the central school idea; with
school wagons to bring the children
in to larger, better buildings, and
comfort and convenience beyond
anything that the old country school
house ever knew.
Twin Falls has many natural adj
vantages-healthful climate, rich
soil, many places where good rock
and sand can be had for building
and such grandeur of scenery with
in few minutes drive, as can
scarcely be duplicated anywhere
else in this fair land of ours One
could write on almost indefinitely
of the new and beautiful things to
be found. But it is better to insist
that you go and see for yourself.

Not few people the Richfeld tract will spend saf
and sane holiday in the hay field saving their fine crop

Sense of Direction.

Dense OF DiTCCllOfls
The apparently marvellous way In
which Indians, Eskimos and other
primitive people make their way
through forests, snow-covered areas
or other regions, which have little to
indicate direction to white newcomers,
has led to widespread belief that
they possess mysterious sixth sense
Of direction. Vilhjalmur Stefanson, the
Arctic traveller, who has lived much
with Eskimos, is very skeptical about
the existence of any superiority OF
sense of direction among primitive
peoples of any kind, and gives strong
evidence from personal experience
that Eskimos have no such superior
ity. The ability of Indians and others
to find their way he attributes solely
to their familiarity with the country
through which they are travelling.
They note many things that they have
seen before and that have no signifi-
canoe to the stranger in thoir land.
White men can and do acquire the
same ability to find their way when
they have learned to know coun-
try. When the land is equally strange
to the white man and the Indian or
Eskimo, the white man, because of
his better developed reasoning pow
er, is more likely to have correct
line of direction than the Eskimo.
