Worlds Oldest Industry.

The pearl fisheries of Ceylon are said
to be the oldest industry in the world.
For over 5000 years the pearl oyster
harvest has been gathered by the ma
tives, who, skilled in diving, have hand
ed down the industry from one genera
ton to the next. Pearl fishing In Cey-
Ion today is somewhat OF speculation.
The greatest care is taken lest when
the shells of the bivalves are opened
any of the precious gems be lost or
stolen. A very strict watch Is kept
over the natives who are employed In
this kind of work. but in spite of the
greatest precautions some of the small
er stones are frequently concealed. The
refuse from the shells is very carefully
examined subsequent to this first ex-
animation. Even the dried dust Of the
oyster is carefully sifted

Ownership Of Deserts.

The national government virtually
owns all our deserts, although in Texas
the state owns all the public lands. 1t
is probable that eventually the desert
lands will pass from public ownership
Into the hands of private owners by
allotment of areas, the size of which
will be relative to their productiveness
For it must be realized that whereas In
a well watered region five acres may
be enough to support family, any
where from 500 to 10000 acres may be
needed to support family in the des-
ert. 1t is all matter Of water supply,
for water is primarily the basis Of land
utility and value, as it is the prime
means of subsistence of all living

self, but attacks, conquers and kills
such deadly reptiles as the tropical

poison it is altogether immune. The
snake kills by coiling about its victim
and squeezing it to death Against
the coral snakes poison. however, the
snake killer has no protection and
