Address to Legislature.

Gov. B. w. Hooper, in a message to
the legislature, said he was in favor
of working convicts on the public
roads, but ION the honor system, with
out chains, shackles or guns, and CIV
ing them an extra reduction from
their sentences as an incentive to dis
cipline."
He said he was not in favor of work
ing only short-term convicts on the
roads because this classification would
not harmonic with the honor system
He expressed the belief that the roads
could be worked more cheaply by free
labor than convict labor, but the use
of convicts would mean the procure
ment of many miles of road that other
wise would not be built.
The governor touched on number
Of problems that the new legislature
will have to deal with, but the princi-
pal part of his message was in regard
to the state convict system. In addi-
ton to this subject he mentioned the
insurance department and defended
attacks made on 1t. He also favored
fire prevention laws and cited the
work Of the fire marshals during the
last two years.

General Trade Conditions.

dustrial activity, higher prices, better

Spoiled Flour.

Flour becomes spoiled from two
principal causes. The first of these
is contamination by odors and fla
vors of other substances which are
often communicated in transporta-
ton. Occasionally the miller Is re-
sponsible for this sort of contamina-
ton, but not often, for all millers
understand the sensitiveness of -four
to absorb unpleasant navors and
governs himself accordingly. But
carelessness in transportation and in
storage occasionally renders flour
unstable although the flour itself is
unchanged in character and free from
any actual faint; for the absorbing OF
odors causes no real change in the
flour, says American Miller.
But the commonest source of deter
ioration in flour is dampness, either
in the wheat from which it is made
or from absorbing too much moisture
in transit or in other ways. An &C
tual chemical change takes place il
such flour. The flour itself is hot
and stingy to the taste with a char
acteristic bitter taste and offensive
odor. In some stages of deteriora
ton bread may be made from sucf
| flour, and the mustiness may show
| itself in the bread. Ordinarily, how
| ever, even a slight degree of deter
ioration will make itself known il
the baking, because the gluten i:
itself changed in the spelling of the
| flour and is unable to hold up" Glu

of the labors of their women folk. Oc- |
casionally, the local authorities round |
up bunch of the men and set them
but it is said that they are so weak
and indolent as to be of little value
when it comes to manual labor.
The women are noted for their love
of gold coins and colored finery of
dress. Their penchant for collecting
gold coins which they wear in the
form of necklaces had its origin, it
is said, during the period when great
numbers of American Adventures
made their mad rush across the 18TH
mus of Tehuantepec on their way to
the California gold fields in the late
40's. When a Tehuana woman onces
comes into possession Of gold piece
| she will not part with it no matter
to what degree of poverty she may be-
| come reduced. Many Of these women,
whom one sees in the wonderful mar
ket places, wear strings of gold coins
aggregating several hundred dollars.
Great Chiapas Forests.
Bordering on the north the level re-
| gfon through which the Pan-American
railroad runs is a stretch of rich tim
Der and agricultural lands of the state
of Chiapas. The hand of modern de-
velopers and upbuilders has barely
touched that little known port Of Mex
leo. The state Is abundantly sup
piled with perpetual flowing rivers,
the most notable of which are the
Grijalva and the Usumacinta, which
are navigable for large boats for long
distances. The forests have been lit
tie explored. They are filled with
many kinds of birds Of brilliant plum
age, and roaming through the wilder
ness of tropical trees and plants are
leopards, tigers, wild boars, deer,
monkeys and many other animals.
The interior region is a veritable
sportsman's paradise. Orchids of enor-
nous size and the deepest colors add
, to the wonderful beauty of the pris-
tine forests. 1t is said that more
than $4,000 different varieties of or
, chids have been collected and classi-
fed.
1t is interesting to note that several
| celebrated ethnologists who made re-
; search into the existing native tribes
: of Chiapas and the ruins of a pre-
: historic civilization that existed there,
/ believe 1t to have been the cradle of
} the human race" In this connection
l it may be stated that the mountain
tribes of Indians of Chiapas as we'll as
the Tehuana Indians Of Tehuantepec
: bear in many respects a remarkable
; resemblance to the Orentals, both in
. personal characteristics and In their
l established customs. 1t is in the
3 northern part of Chiapas that the
: ruins of Palenque, which have long
5 afforded an inspiring work of research

element in -four, and it cannot be
long submitted to excessive moisture
without losing its elastic character.
Indeed, there is reason to believe
that sometimes changes in the gluten
Of spoiled -four develop something
akin to an alkaloid ptomaine that is
actually poisonous. A plague at Rome
at the beginning of the last century
was believed to have been the result
of spoiled flour.
AS most spoiled -four comes from
dampness in the wheat, the miller
should be on his guard against using
wheat that has already deteriorated
through moisture. Even in small
quantities such wheat may affect the
flour disastrously, even though at
first the flour appears all right and
bakes all right. AS has been ex-
planned by recent scientific research,
an actual improvement may take
place in flour made in part from
moist or sprouted wheat; but such
flour may spoil later on. Wheat
which has undergone changes through
excessive moisture should not be used
at any price.

The answer was: IF you think that

fuse to take the hand of your friend
