THESE SALT MINES FAMOUS
Many In Gallela That Have Been
Worked for as Long a Time as
Seven Centuries.

Many Of the worlds most famous
salt mines are In operation in Galicia
Those at WieliOzka have been worked
for nearly seven centuries, at one time
being a principal source OF revenue
for the Polish kings. Railroads are
not permitted to run near them lest
their vibrations result in cave-ins.
Within these mines are a labyrinth OF
salt-hewn streets and alleys, lined
with pillared churches, staircases, res
taurants, shrines, and monuments.
Nearly two thousand workmen are en-
ployed in the salt mines. working in
eight-hour shifts. The damp, salty
atmosphere seems to shorten their
days; but even at that they do not ap.
pear unhappy, In spite of the small
wage Of twenty cents a day they are
paid. There are little lakes in the
mines, sometimes thirty feet deep
which are navigated by ferryboats.
Many of the little ponies which draw
the cars over the tiny salt railway
have not seen the light of day for gen
erations, and are born blind.

counterpart of the Baltimore oriole,
taking the place Of that species west
Of the plains and throughout the Pa
cific coast region. 1t does not essen.
TALLY differ in its habits of eating or
in its food from its eastern relative,
but it is less beautiful in plumage.
The examination Of 162 stomachs
shows that 70 per cent of its food con-
sists of insects, with few spiders, a
lizard, a mollusk shell and eggshells.
One of the most interesting articles Of
food in the orioles dietary was the
black olive scale, found in As stom-
achs, and amounting to per cent OF
the food. In several cases these scales
formed so per cent or more of the
contents, and in one, 30 individual
scales could be counted. They were
evidently a standard article of diet,
and were eaten regularly in every
month of the orioles stay except April.
The same family of insects other than
scales, eaten quite regularly, make up
little more than per cent of the
food. They were mostly stinkbugs,
leaf hoppers and tree hoppers. Plant
lice were found in one stomach.
Moths, pupae and caterpillars COM
pose the largest item of the orioles
animal food. The average consump-
tion during its summer stay is a little
more than Al per cent OF these, per
haps the most interesting were the
pupae and larvae of the codllng moth,
These we're found in 23 stomachs,
showing that they are not an unusual
article of diet. No less than IA Of the
pupa cases were found in one stom.
ach, and as they are very fragile many
others may have been present, but
broken beyond recognition.
The vegetable contingent Of the orr
ole's food is mostly fruit, especially in
June and July, when it takes kindly
to cherries and apricots, and some
times eats more than the fruit grower
considers a fair share. However, NO
great complaint is made against the
bird, and it is probable that as a rule
it does not do serious harm. With such
a good record as an insect eater 1t can
well be spared a few cherries.

MIXING INCUBATOR
EGGS WITH FRESH
Farmer Who INDUCES in Practice
Is Quite Liable to Iniure
His Own Market.

A number of poultry raisers have
been in the habit Of putting on the
market infertile eggs that have been
tested in incubators from three days
to a week. AS soon as the breeder
finds that the eggs will not hatch he
takes them out and sends them to
market along with his fresh spring
eggs. After the eggs have been in the
incubator for this period they are dis
tinctly stale and rot very quickly If
kept any length of time. Even when
Just taken from the incubator these
infertile eggs are not fit for boiling
or poaching. although they may be
used for frying, and are good for cake
or certain other baked foods. These
eggs when they reach the market,
however, are classified as low grade
No. 2.
The mixing Of incubator eggs with
fresh spring eggs leads the egg pack
ers, who get their principal cold stor-
age supply in the spring, to cut the
price they pay the farmer. The spring
eggs designed for keeping for winter
consumption must be absolutely good
Moreover, the egg packers in the
spring do not candle eggs but hold
them three at a time IN the hand and
clink them to discover any crack and
then Judge their freshness by their
fresh powdery look on the shell. The
mixture of infertile incubator eggs
with fresh eggs interferes seriously
with this clinking and forces the pack
or to candle the eggs He then deducts
this added expanse from the price he
offers to the producer. Eggs which
have once been subjected to the heat
Of the incubator cannot be stored
even though frozen.
The farmer who sells incubator eggs
to the dealer, therefore, is very liable
to injure his own market for fresf
eggs. When dealers find a percentage
Of low grade incubator or other egg:
In their fresh spring egg supply thsy
lower the price for all eggs so tha
they will be certain that they hav'
covered themselves against lossei
from this cause The department.
specialists advise farmers to use an!
'nfertile eggs they may take from thei
ncubators for home consumption an,
to send only fresh eggs to market.

If the worms appear the following

Cutworm-If the land Is thorough

lowed to freeze it will serve to de
stroy many of the eggs and larvae Of
the worm in the ground. Land infest
ed should be planted very thickly and
thinned to stand after the cutworms
have had their share.
Chinch Bug-This bug spends the
winter months in the thickets and
wild grass areas Of the field and comes
out in early spring to do it's devilment.
1t Is therefore good plan to burn
over all wild grass patches where the
bug is troublesome, and when he
makes his appearance spray with paris

LASTING Window Polish.

There is an art in washing windows.
and if they are properly polished the
operation need not be repeated for
long time. A really good polish will
survive several transforms and will
only require the dust to be removed
occasionally with dry cloth. The
inside of the windows should be
washed with tepid water. without soap
or powder Of any kind, rubbed dry
with chamois and polished with cheese
cloth. A solution for cleaning the out
side should be made from one ounce
of pulverized whiting. one ounce of
grain alcohol. one ounce of liquid am
monia and pint of water. Spray the
window with clear water to remove
surface dirt, and apply the solution
with a soft cloth. Let this dry on.
Afterward polish with cheesecloth or
tissue paper. II the glass has been
badly scratched, a filling may be ap-
piled. This consists of an ounce OF
white wax dissolved in turpentine. 1t
should be applied before the polishing.

Brilliancy of plumage,. sweetness Of

In America is Rio de Janeiro.
When one goes to the dictionary
to define culture, he will find that 1t
is the application of labor or other
means to improve, correct, train or
refine mans physical or mental con-
dition. The two South American
cities have done more in the last fif-
teen years to improve, correct, train
or refine the people Of their cities
than any other cities of the world.
Then, going back to the definition, we
must conclude they are cultured.
In many respects we look down on
Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro. We
consider the people there in the light
of gamblers and high ivers. They
know less than we do about cutting
down the cost of living, for food
prices are higher there than here. The
people are in debt and their educa-
tional system is different from ours
We consider our system of education
the best. but they think their system
is more direct. They believe we waste
our time on nonessentials.
The South Americans now are try
ing to get the American university fol-
one of their cities. They believe the
educational capital should be south oi
the equator. Wouldn't Rio make o

Ing from state of chaos following

King, but the court of Rio de Janeiro
was never popular as a resort for Eu-
ropean kings, and the emperor of Bra
ELL rarely had guests from across the
water. When Brazil decided to estab-
lish republic score of years ago, the
emperor was given pension and sent
away to exile. He took up his resi-
dence in Paris and the last claim to
royal palace and court America could
boast was lost.

GUINEAS ARE MOST
PROFITABLE FOWL
Birds Are Industrious in Huntinu
for Their FOod-Large Range
Should Be Given.

Taking into consideration the little
trouble and cost of raising, guineas are
a most profitable fowl. They hunt for
food in the woods and fields, and do
not come home to get feed as long as
they can forage elsewhere.
Each farm should have at least a
few guineas. Large range should he
given, as the fowls will not thrive
when cooped up.
Guineas are also good watch dogN
They give an alarm If animals ap-
proach, and keep it up until the enemy
has left.
A good bird will annually lay about
1S5 eggs. which can be sold for the
same price as hens eggs.
The cost Of raising guineas is almost
nothing.
