Washington. D. C., June 12-n the American soldiers had been forced to live on ''the fat of the land" while ol: their punitive expedition into Mex ico they would have found it decidedly lean and would have had occasion to complain bitterly of the commissary, for although the neighboring republic has within its borders an extHaordin- ary variety of food products, includ- ing most of the vegetables, fruits and cereals grown in bo.h the temperate zone and the tropics, there is neither variety nor abundance in it's northern states. A bulletin on culinary prac- tices in the Southern republic, issued by the National Geographic Society in Washington, says:

 The "big top or main tent, where the performances will be given at 2 and o'clock p. m. is a tremendous affair-in fact, the largest spread of canvas ever erected In previous GUS folks term an, "7 pole top" mean ing that seven centre poles were re- quired to hold the spread of canvas. This year eight centre poles are used. The length of the tent is over 500 feet, with a width of 200 feet. Over 30.- 600 yards of canvas enter into it's con- struction, and over 16,0 900 people can be accommodated.
 It has become a bronidic statement to say that the circus is all new. or very nearly SC. but 1t exactly hits the nail on the head as far as the Barnum and Bailey show is concerned, I for never has it presented so much that is entirely new to American au- l diences One reason for this is the 1 European war which has made it | incumbent for the foregn artists to leave the other side and has enabled ] y of the foreign arenic experts At this years Barnum and Bailey circus one may see parrots and ravens riding bi- cycles s-hugc numbering bears roller skating and riding bicycles monkeys land fox-terriers doing equestrian stunts equal to their human col l leagues, trained rats, cats. rabbits and l pigeons doing unheard of things, and much, very much more that is un- usual striking and out of the beaten path of performances usually seen at the circus.

nARMuM 6 BAILEY CIRCUS.

'aThe animals went in
 Seven by seven. Said the ant to the elephant:
 %Who are yer shovin' ?'
 The call of the circus, with its ever. wonderful exhibits, it's ridiculous clowns, it's thrilling performers, anil mals and pretty equestriennes will be answered by Norwich today, for the fashions and the tastes of men change in almost all things but the love for the circus. There are those who pooh-pooh at the idea of going to the circus, saying that such things are for the ''kids.' but even as they say it they know in their hearts that they are bearing false winess to their own true sentiments. And they are also bearing false witness when they go for the sake of the chill dren," and they know it. for the cir GUS has an alluring charm all it's own that those who have once felt it never forget, while it is a perennial delight for the young in heart, no matter whether their years be many or few. Circuses come and circuses go, and the average small boy (and most of his elders as wel) for whom the cir GUS is popularly supposed to have been invented. feels that the last word in circus entertainment has been presented when the Barnum and Bailey circus has had it's turn. This circus has come on down from the days of our granddaddies and, like Tennyson's brook, seems destined to go on forever.
 It arrived in Norwich at an early hour this morning upon it's own four special trains coming from Stamford, where performances were given yes- terday. The first train bearing the preliminary essentials to the q circus encampment came at an hour when the average Jim and John, Mary and Bess, were asleep upon their pillows, dreaming of fairyland aglow with lights, in which the crack of the ring masters whip mingled with the roar of The wild beasts and it's loud trumpetings of the elephants. In all its gay panoply of. snapping flags, broad expanses of canvas, sawdust and spangles the circus has erected its canvas city at the Fairgrounds
 The elephants are here the clowns, the gaudy chariots, the horses, anil mals and all the other things that for the past week have stimulated the small boy to a fervor of youthful en- thusiasm, and with the parade and performances of today the circus folk promise to over-top in magnitude. in splendor and general excellence any and all of its famous achieEements of the past.
 The first offering of the circus will be the street parade this morning which is due to leave the show grounds at 10 o'clock and pass over the principal streets. In this pa geant which exhibits the resources o1 the circus as possibly nothing else could. the circus people put theil best foot forward. It will be a dis play full of color and interest and strings out for matter of over two miles In a general way it will not be unlike the cavalcades of previous years. only # will have more ant more of everything pertinent to sucf a display than ever before. There will be more open cages. more horses more bands, more animals travelling afoot aud richeT and more gorgeoul dressing as regards trappinSs ane wardrobe than in previous years. I will not be without novelties. Nev

Because. of the heavy snowfall last winter, forest Arangers found 1t neces- sary this spring to remove two feet of snow ffum abe Beaver Creek Nursery in Utah, so that the young trees might be uncovered by the time they were needed for spring planting on the National Forests of that region. Part of the snow was taken off by use of shovel and pick. By spreading a thin layer of fine soil over another part, the natural melting of the snow was hastened sufficiently to make Shoveling unnecessary.
