valuable hint to the enormous Arkan- one hitherto insurmountable problem of the commercial grower; the prob lem of what to do with his cull ap. pies. It is nerally supposed that the distilleries take care of cul ap- ples. Ten cents per hundred pounds scarcely pays for gathering and de livering them; and only a small per centage of this part of the crop can thus be disposed of If We can make olr surplus apples into apple syrup of such value as the government promis- es il will be Godsend to the state.
 Other apple men are considering this new manufacture and will call on the department of agriculture for direction and assistance in putting the suggested method to a practical test It is intended. if the depart ment will direct the move, to put in a factory for making apple syrup at some central point ill the western Aranksas apple country If the move ment materializes as the department suggests, it will not only put an end to feeding thirty-five to fifty per cent of the ~tates millions of bushels of apples to the hogs, but will put q new southern product on the market which the government experts say equals maple syrup.-Southwes Am eriean

the salt-producing lakes near Salinas
station, on the Tampico division OF the
Mexican Central railway, u miles west
Of San Luis Potosi. 1t may well De
termed a two-story lake, for at times
there is a lake of fresh water over
lying the salt lake. A water-ught
roof of green mud separates the iresh
from the salt water. For large
part of the year there Is no fresh
water lake there. The sun ticks 1t up
soon after the rainy season Is over
The salt secured from this lake goes
all over Mexico. The lake has Deeh
worked about sixty-five years. Inc

living from the salt. The property
is owned by a family or estate, bu'
it is said that not one of the owners
