MAnS7AIL EAM6S PROSPECTING.
Jake Richards received a letter
from Marshall Eames last week from
their present home at Sawtelle, Calf,
that will be of interest to the friends
of Mr.. and Mrs. Eames at this place

that they have been prospecting since
they left Grangeville last summer.
The letter says In part:

Mr.. and Mrs. Bully Go House
Hunting.

Bully the English Sparrow and Mrs.
Bully made very good breakfast in
Farmer Browns henyard. The little
people of the Old Orchard watched
them at a distance and really didn't
know what to make of them.
Did you ever in all your life see
such bold, impudent things?" exciatm-
ed Goldie the Oriole. why, they actu-
ally take the food from right under
the noses of those stupid chickens!
II they try anything like that here in
the Old Orchard there. is going to be

1t was quite clear that Mrs, Bully
was feeling better natured now that
she had had a good breakfast. That's
the way with some people, II you

you have to do is to fill their stomachs

SAID she. III we can find good

time to waste. SO suppose we. start
house hunting right away. I believe
of the houses. Just take me to the
best of them and we will soon decide
which one we want and can move in
right away"
So Bully led the way from one tree to
| another in the Old Orchard and they in
spected every empty house. Mrs. Bully
examined each one of them very care
;ully. One was too small; she was sure
that it would not hold as much bedding
as she liked. Another was too no ID

hoped that she would dec'd de to take this.
But she didn't. When he asked her why.
she answered ooh. because" And that
was all he could get from her So he,
sighed and made up his mind that she
didn't have any real reason for not taking

didn't want to live there, that was ALL
Are these all the houses that there
are?" she asked at last in a fretfal tone

"All the empty ones" replied Bully.

Certainly, OF course. You didn't sup

Of William P. Mafhurn. acting SaGiS-

The order takes cognizance Ola
communication from the Secretary Of

Zealand is so far free from contagious
and infectious diseases that meat cat

to the domestic animals of the United
States, and it suspends the prohibition

So once more Bully led the way
through the Old Orchard. He stopped
first at the home of Winsome Bluebird.
1t just happened that no one was at
home. Mrs. Bully not only looked in.
but she went in. She examined IL
just as thoroughly as she had the
empty houses, and acted quite as IL
she had a perfect right there.

Mrs. Bully, in a very decided tone, and
led the way.
But just before they reached Drum

peared in the doorway. -. Mrs Bully
took one look at Drummer's stout bin
and then quite suddenly changed her

How the War Affects Us.
xxVII.-As to Silks.
By Frederic ]. Haskin.

That the United States will take first
place among the silk manufacturing
countries Is a probable effect Of the
European war. There is no indica-
ton that Americans, who wear more
silk than any other people, will reduce
their demand. Much of the silk worn
here Is imported from France. while
practically every European country
supplies a part of our demand.
Our own silk mills in recent years
have greatly broadened their scope In
respect to the number and kinds of
fabric produced. If the war should
be long drawn out, this broadening in
duence would be encouraged, and In
a comparatively short time American
mills could supply every variety of
silk fabric required in this country.
1t is true we produce practically no
raw silk in the United States. Climatic
and other conditions in many parts of
the country are ideal for silk culture,
but in the United States the high cost
OF labor has absolutely prevented any
growth in this branch of the indus
try. California's silk may be better
than than ! that hat Of Japan; and South Caro-
world but with labor at American
prices competition with the Japanese

silk has suffered in very much the
Japanese produce much more silk than
they manufacture, and they export
their surplus to Europe and America.
Their European market is cut OF. At
first the Generalization of marine
traffic absolutely paralyzed the mar
ket and prices went tumbling. How
ever, there Is no difficulty in bringing
raw silk to the United States from
Japan in American bottoms. even II
the japanese were not able to keep
the Pacific free for their own ships.

About two-thirds of the raw silk nor
mally manufactured in this country
comes from Japan The American mills
VIII now require more Japanese silk,
but even II the mills are run at full ca
pacity they cannot take all the Japa-
nese surplus.
The silk manufacturers in the United
states are hampered by the dyestuff
situation, just as are other textile
workers. The American mills make
four-dfths of the silk fabrics consumed
IN this country. The other one-fifth
however. which comes largely from
france and Germany, represents many
OF the finer velvets, ribbons and the
more expensive dress goods. These
must now be made in America. At the
tunity to go into South America, where
the silk demand is heavy.
Actual conditions in the silk manu-
featuring industry will have a greater

ers will have to cut such fabrics as
they can get. In the case of silks, a

most to the exclusion of other colors.
In this connection it is interesting to
recall the historical circumstance that
the first industry imported to the
United States from Europe was that
of silk culture. When the COLONY al
jamestown was founded the people i'm
mediately gave themselves over to the
culture of tobacco. James l, that king
who never said foolish thing and
never did wise one, was an implaca-
BILE foe of My Lady Nicotine. When
the virginia colony was only two years
old he sought to suppress the growing
OF tobacco by the substitution of silk
culture.
So it was that he sent silkworm eggs
and mulberries to Virginia with print
ed suggestions concerning sericulture
The colonists were required by law to
plant mulberry trees, and the silkworn
eggs were distributed free of charge
That was more than 800 years ago
The United States government today
not only furnishes mulberry trees and
undertake the work of growing silk
but 1t will give the aid of a technical
expert in teaching methods of culture
No other industry ever has been sc
coddled and fostered by the govern.
ment, colonially and constitutionally
lutely prevented success.
