1t seems that the home side of the

With frog catching, snail catching is
allied; the frogs go to some restau-

chiefly bought as cleaners of suburban

MINERAL OUTPUT Big
Value of Metallic Products in
1915 Sets New Record.
Zinc Fields of Country Show Greatest
Activity With Gain Of 224
Per Cent In Year.

The value of the metallic products
of the United States broke all records
In 1915, says Uncle Sam, and the value
of the tOt.d mineral production in 1915
has been exceeded in only one year
1913. Preliminary figures compiled by
the United States geological survey
show that the value of the mineral pro-
ductiOn of the country in 1915 was
approximately S2,3T3, 100000, Il gain of
$259, 100000, or more than II per cent
over 1914. This was exceeded in 1913,
when total of $2,439, 100000 was re-
corded
The metallic products reached the
greatest value ever recorded, having
advanced from $691 100000 in 1914 to
S9S7, 100000 in 1915-a gain of nearly
43 per cent. The metals contributing
most largely to this increase, their
combined gains being 81 per cent of
the total, are as follows: Pig iron, in
crease, $102, 100000, or "a per cent:
copper $S9,93O,OO0, or 80 per cent, and
zinc, $7S.589,OO0, or 224 per cent.
The value Of the nonmetallic prod
ucts in 1915 has been exceeded in 1913
and 1914 only, showing in 1915 a de-
crease of less than per cent from
the preceding year. The figures for
1914 and 1915 are 81, 1,423, 100000 ana
81, ,3S5, 100000, respectively.
The mining activities and output re-
ported for the six months just ended
show that 1915 promises to be rec
Ord-breaking year In the value of min
eral products.

| The Nlsqually glacier is the most
striking and most celebrated, although
not the largest on Mount Rainier. It
is easily reached, as it descends direct
ly south from the snowy summit in a
long curve, its lower finger reaching
into the parklike glades of wild fiow-
ers. From Paradise valley one may
step directly upon its fissured surface.
The Nisqually glacier is five miles
long, and, at Paradise valley, is half
n mile wide. Glistening white and
fairly smooth at its shining source on
the mountains summit, its surface
here is soiled with dust and broken
stone and squeezed and rent by ter
rtble pressure into fantastic shapes.
lnnumerable crevasses, or cracks many
feet deep, break across 1t, caused by
the more rapid movement of the gla-
cier's middle than It's edges; for gla-
ciers, like rivers of water, develop
swifter currents nearer midstream.
Professor LIE Comte says that the
movement Of Nlsqnally glacier in sum-
mer averages, at midstream, about
sixteen inches a day. 1t is far less at
the margins, It's speed being retarded
by the friction of the sides.
Like all glaciers, the Nisqually gath
ers on its surface masses of rock, with
which 1t Strews its sides, Just as rivers
OF water strew their banks with logs
and floating debris. These are called
lateral mOraines, or side mOraines.
Sometimes glaciers build lateral mo-
raines miles long and over thousand
feet high. The NIsqualIy ice is more
than thousand feet thick in places.
The rocks which are carried in mid
stream to the end Of the glacier and
dropped when the Ice melts are called
the terminal mOraine. AS the glacier
recedes the terminal moraine stretches
into an ever-lengthening medal mo-
raine.
The end, or snout, of the glacier TINS
always lies among great mass of
rocks and stones. The Nisqually river
hows from a cave In the end of the
Nisqually glncier's snout, for the melt

great public playgrOunds-Mount Raj

Mount Rainier is one of number of
extinct volcanoes which rise among
the Cascade mountains in Washington.
Today their fires quenched, these giant
volcanoes suggest to the poetic mind q
stalwart band of knights of the ages,

standing at parade upon carpet pat
termed gOrgeously in wild flowers.
Mount Rainier Is easily chief of
this knightly band, a giant towering
14,4OS feet above tidewater in Puget
sound. HOme-bound sailors far at sea
mend their courses from his silver
summit.
This mountain has a glacier system
far exceeding in size and impressive
beauty that of any other in the United
States. From it's snow-covered sum-
NIT, 2S rivers of Ice pour slowly down
Its sides. Seen upon the map, as If

perfect cake must have fine delicate
texture, very tender and free from any
suggestion Of sogginess, yet moist. 1t
must be light as feather, and of good
flavor, good to look at and more deli
cious to the taste. With all these
qualifications it is certainly an art to
produce perfect cake; 1t takes deft
hand with careful attention to detail.
The fame Of good cook was not
earned by making good cakes, for it is
Il more desirable accomplishment to
be able to brOil steak, properly cook
an egg or prepare piece of toast, or
highest of all make a standard loaf
Of bread.
Some of the main points to observe
in making cake 1t will be profitable to
dwell upon. Have all of the ingredi-
ents ready as well as the utensils be-
fore starting in, because at the critical
moment something vital may be lack
ing which will spoil the result. Have
the butter, If used, soft, not melted,
but so soft that it quickly creams; add
the sugar gradually, mixing it well;
have extra eggs so that If there should
be stale one you need not leave to
get another. Break all eggs in small
dish one at time so that no acci-
dent such as putting a bad egg into
dish with several good ones, occurs.
Make sure that the oven is ready
by the time the cake is ready for it.
The success of cake depends largely
upon its baking. One may put care
into the mixing and making of a cake
and ruin 1t by careless attention to it
when it is In the oven. Cakes TINT
contain large amount of eggs, espe-
cially whites stiffy beaten, should |
bake in a slow oven. Cakes that con-
tain fruit and molasses should also |
bake in a slow oven. Cakes that re-
quire slow cooking are best baked In
sheet iron or heavy tin as they are
better protected from the direct heat
