The snow is deep at Cerro Grande

Let boys in on Hot Lunch.

Tommy Tucker had to sing for his
supper. Why not apply the system
up-to.date to the rural school lunch
and put some of the boys to the inter-
esting work of making that almost
necessary adjunct in preparing hot
lunches, the fireless cooker? This Is
the happy suggestion of one member
of the Home Economics department at
Iowa State college. ;.
Materials needed are a wooden pail
with cover. denim, covered agate pail
flood kettle), excelsior and asbestos.
Place the excelsior In the bottom
of the wooden pail to depth so that
when food kettle and top cushion are
inserted all the space will be filled.
Place the sheet of asbestos slightly
larger than the bottom of the food
kettle over the excelsior. Place the
food kettle III this. Fit a sheet of as
bestos around the food kettle, cutting
notches for the handle SO the kettle
will slip in and out. Fill in the space
between asbestos and sides of pail
with more asbestos. From denim,
make round bag that will fit into
the top of the wooden pail and deep
enough to fill the space above the food
kettle to the top of the wooden pail.
Fill with asbestos and place it on top
of the food kettle. Cover with wooden
top.

I read an official report when in
Bombay that during the preceding
year tigers had killed 1000 persons in
India. You shudder at the fearful
ravages Of this king of the jungles.
But ut the very time was in Bombay
the fleas were killing 800 persons every

Those fleas were riding upon the
backs Of rodents and depositing the
devastating bubonic plague in thou.

A former herdsman relates thrill

camped for the night on Bear river,
near its junction with the Little Snake,
At midnight, when he Went OH guard.
all was quiet, but in an hour or so, for
some unexplained reason, the cattle
were up and off like flash. Some
thing had stampeded them. .,4a
He was riding an old blue colored,
line backed California bronchO, Just
the beast for the work. He had often
ridden him hundred miles a day.
The night was dark and cloudy, and
he had to rely on the animals sure
footedness as he strnve to stay on the
tanks of the steers and turn them
until their scare should cease.
It, was a wild race. -Four or five
times the broncho gave tremendous
jumps, but landed right and went on
in good shape. In the course of an
hour or SO the man had the beeves
quieted.A .ra s (

to learn what obstacles had occasioned
those tremendous jumps Of the bron-
cho, the man set forth to look over the
ground. Leaving the bottom land. the
steers had ascended gentle activity,
and on the plateau at the top he had
kept circling them. s4t t4 y.
The plateau was intersected by q
canyon about four mikes long and from
1900 to 1900 feet deep. Its walls in

WHALING DAYS ARE OVER.
A Once Thriving Industry That Has
Nearly Vanished.

At the outbreak of the American Rev.
olution and for period of seventy five
years following the conclusion Of that
struggle whaling was the. most impor-
tant branch of the American fisheries.
From 500 to 700 vessels sought whales
in all the oceans and seas Of the world,
and in one year New Bedford alone
sent out 800 vessels, whose cafgoes Of
bone and oil were the basis Of the in
dustrial life Of the city. a.r.s7
The pursuit Of sperm whales reached
it's climax In 1887; when oil valued at
nearly $4,000, 600 was brought in, most
" from the south Pacific. The height
of the industry was in 1876, when TO-
600 persons derived their support from
whales and 72O vessels, valued at $751;
Co., 900, were engaged. ~
For more. than fifty years the fishery
has been declining, and In numerous
ports that once derived most of their
wealth from the industry there have
for long time existed only memories
of former greatness. For number Of
years the sperm, right and bow head
whales that supported the fishery in
early years have been very scarce and
their pursuit has been Improbable,
and the present importance Of the
whale fishery, amounting In value to
less than 2 per cent of the American
fisheries, depends on the taking from
shore stations ofspecies Of whales that
formerly were for the most part neg
lected.
The glory Of the whale fishery has
departed forever, and the commercial
IL not the biological. extinction of all
kinds Of whales is proceeding rapidly,
undeterred and unlamented by the
principal maritime powers.-Hugh NJ.

Braided Rivers.

A river not confined to single chan
mel, but broken up into . number Of
channels, which in turn branch and
unite in complex and confusing man
ner, is called a braided stream It is
caused by the slight fall Of the stream,
which prevents it from carrying away
all the sediment swept into it bysits
numerous tributariess
This material chOkes the stream and
forces 1t to spread into many shallow
and shifting channels, resembling the
strands Of braid. A good example OF
this is Jefferson river, in Montana

The "Elxina Tyne"

The army aviator Of today is picked
for his Quickness Of mind and body,
and the first thing that strikes you
about him is sort of feline, wound
up spring alertness. Then you note
his reticence, the cool reserve Of a man
whose lot it is to express himself In
deeds rather than words. And lastly
there is the quiet seriousness, vergins
almost on sadness, of the man who
must hold himself ready to look death
between the eyes at any moment, and
yet keep his mind detached for other
things.-Lewis r. Freeman in Atlantic.

Hard Life OF Old Ships.

Naval men Of today need not envy
their predecessors of the middle Of the
eighteenth. century when they think Of
the large prize money earned, for in
stance, by the capture Of the Hermione.
There were terrible odds to be set on
the other side Of the gamble. In seven
years of that war, which ended In
1868, the number Of seamen and ma
rines who served was 1S4,S93. Only
1872 We're killed in action or by acct
dent, but as many as 1873, 7OS died of
disease or were reported missing. Why
both disease and desertion were rife
nobody needs to inquire who has read
Smollett's CHASTITY descriptions of naval
life In those days.-London Mail.
