But men were many, and sheds were full.
for work IN the town was slack
The traveller never got hands in wool.
though he tramped for year Out
Back.
In sitting Moons when his back was
wrung by its load, and the air
seemed dead,
And the water warmed in the bag that
hung to his aching arms like lead,
Or in times of flood, when plains were
seas. and the scrubs were cold and
black.
He plowed in mud to his trembling knees,
and paid for his sins Out Back.
He blamed himself in the year TOO
Late"-in the heaviest hours OF life
Twas little he dreamed that shearing-
mate had care of his home and wife;
There are times when wrongs from your
kindred come and treacherous
tongues attack,
When a man is better away from home,
and dead TO the world, Out Back.
And dirty and careless and old he wore,
as his lamp of hope grew dim;
He tramped for years till the swag he
bore seemed part of himself to him.
As bullock drags in the sandy ruts, he
followed the dreary track,
With never a thought but to reach the
huts when the sun went down Out
Back.
It CHANGED one day, when the north vino
blew in his face like a furnace
breath,
He left the track for tank-he knew
twas a short cut to his death
For the bed of the tank was hard and
dry. and crossed with many crack
And, oh, it's a terrible thing to die OF
thirst in the scrub, out Back.
4 drover came, but the fringe of law was
eastward many a mile.
He never reported the thing he saw, for
IL was not worth his while.
The tanks are full and the grass is high
in the muga Off the track.
Where the bleaching bones Of a white
man lie by his moldering swag Out
Back.
For time means food and tramp they
must, where the plains and scrubs
are wide.
with seldom a track that man can
trust, or a mountain peak to guide;
Nj day long in the flies and heat the men
of the outside track
With stinted stomachs and blistered fee
must carry their swags Out Back.

HARD TO CULTIVATE
Orchid Long a Puzzle to Horti-
cuIturists.
Beautiful But Strange Flower Re
quires Expert Handling and
knowledge OF Surroundings In
Which II ls Grown.

Probably there is no flower In the
whole plant world which is admired
more and understood less today than
the orchid, the development and culti-
walton of which are discussed by J..
Constantin in paper OF the Smithso-
nian annual report. Upon entering a
house filled with orchids one is liter
ally amazed by the bizarre display,
the brilliance of color and the pecu.
liar forms of leaves, petals and roots.
The number of known species is
greater than that of any of the related
families, even not excepting the
grasses, totaling 5000 species. includ-
ed in 400 genera. This great number
u.s. no doubt, due very largely to the
diligent search which has been made
for these plants, on account OF their
beauty and very great popularity.
They have otherwise very little eco
nomic value, excepting a few mem
bers. such as the vanilla plant.
Some of the orchids are terrestrial;
that is, they grow with their roots
in the ground. The great majority.
however, including most tropical spe-
cies, are epiphytes-"air plants
which grow on trees and shrubs, but
receive no nourishment from them.
This popularity was chiefly respon.
sible for the difficulty which was ex'
perienced in successfully growing
many species upon their introduction
into Europe from Asia and Malaysia
in the eighteenth century
For most epiphytes the scheme was
devised of fastening the roots to
piece Of wood, together with little
moss or absorbent peaty substance
by means of copper wire. Plants thus
prepared we're hung in very warm
greenhouses and kept constantly
moist by frequent drenching. 1t was
supposed that tropical plants required
an invariably hot humid atmosphere;
and it was not foreseen that mountain
species of tropical regions could bt
treated essentially like tropical plants
that are accustomed to elevated tenn
peratures.
There are in fact many orchids
and some of these very beautiful
which grow in the neighborhood o
snow. The error of associatint
plants from widely different surround
ings was finally recognized ant
eventually more rational methods o
cultivation developed, leading to thu
usual separation of orchids in thre'
kinds of greenhouses, according Il
temperatures maintained In them
hot houses, temperate houses ant
cold houses. Many of the fines
orchids are found in the last
Some artifcially produced hybrid'
are extremely beautiful. as well as pc
culi2r, and the difficulty of their pro
duction is such that they command ex
traordinary prices, as high as $3.50
having been paid liz single instance
Once created these hybrids may b.
propagated indefinitely by dividing
the root stock as 1t grows.

Church Tithes.

There is no sum voted for the
Church of England in the annual Budg-
ct of Great Britain. The church
derives most of her income from
tithes. These were gifts made to the
church by her children, who could
not give the whole, but willed por-
ton of their property or income to
her for ever. The government per-
mitted the collection of these tithes.

Death IN THE BUSH
Ballad Of the Dread Australian

The Looked-For Tank Hard and Dry
"lts a Terrible Thing to Die Of
Thirst In the Scrub, Out

The old year went. and the new returned,
in the whitening weeks Of drought
The check was spent that the shearer
earned and the sheds were all cut
OUT
The saloon mans words were short and
few, and the saloon mans looks We're
black
And the time had come, as the shearer
knew, to carry his swag Out Back.
For time means food. and tramp you
must, where scrubs and plains are
wide
With seldom a track that man can
trust, or mountain peak to guide;
All day long in the dust and heat-whcr
summer is on the track
With stinted stomachs and blistered feet
they carry their swags Out Back.
He tramped away from the shanty there.
when the days were long and hot,
With never a soul to know or care If he
died on the track or not.
The poor OF the city have friends In woe
no matter how much they lack.
But only God and the swagmen know how
poor man fares out Back.
He begged his way on tho parched Paroo
and the warrago tracks once more,
And lived like a dog. as the swagmen do

Houston, two Of the largest cities in
Texas, by storm. The jtneys were
first used in Houston, where a retired
police officer used several small cars
and successfully competed with the
street car lines. He recently ordered
% additional cars.
The first jitney car was operated
free Of charge shortly after Christ
mas, parallel with the Polytechnic
and Stockyards lines, the longest in
the city, each of them traversing
five miles. They now compete with
all lines, and an enterprisfng ftney

"JITNEY BUS" HITS K. c.

Kansas City, No. Jan. 26.-1O0
jitney auto buses were in operation
this morning, an increase of 25 over
yesterday. They operated on %
routes, many Of them with five-min-
ute service. Jftneys are now operat-
ing till midnight on three important
lines. AS soon as bus is loaded it
goes through. without a stop, giving
express service, cutting the street car
time for the distance in half.

bus before 1880 a. m. are entitled to
ride in any part of the bus for second
class fare, and by paying cent in
addition to the regular fare, receive
a return ticket good coming back on
the same line at any time the same
afternoon. Thus for 4 cents a work
ingman can go across town in the
morning and return home at night.
The same trip in an American city
would probably cost 10 cents.
The congestion in the central Paris
streets is often extraordinary, yet the
buses make remarkably good time
and accidents are few. Moreover,
many Paris streets are extremely
narrow and toTtuous, the paVements
are in many places no better than In
American cities, and there are nu-
merous severe grades to climb. In
addition, the fuel oils are expensive,
being heavily taxed both by the state
and the city. Yet In spite Of these
difficulties, the company was making
money before the war and the Paris
populace was thoroughly satisfied
with the service.

MOTOR BUS ITEM IS IN CITY
BUDGET TO STAY

The motor bus item Of. $4,000, 900

This was decided at the council meet
ing last night. Aid. Captain raised
the point that what the council voted
for the week previous was to knock
out the motor bus money. The cOun-
Gil last night showed Aid. Captain his
mistake through its act Of voting to
keep the $3;OOO,0OO in the budget.
The voting of this money means that:
The council can order vote to be
taken by the people at the next cleo
ton on whether they shall start mo-
tor bus lines.
If the voters decide they want mo-
tor buses the money to buy buses
can be taken from the city's traction
fund to the amount Of $3,000,000.
