OBTAINING SWEET-BIRCH OIL
Industry Has Become Quite Matter
Of Importance in Some Sections
of the South.

Sweet-birch oil has been made In
this country for many years and is
obtained from the wood and bark Of
The black birch. The oil is a product
Of steam distillation plants, where, in
addition to the twigs, bark and young
sprouts of the birch, the entire tree
Us sometimes used. More picturesque
are the methods employed by the
southern mountaineer. A rough camp
and crude distillery are erected near
"A supply OF birch. According to per-
sons who have seen both kinds, the
."still' IS not unlike the type some
times employed in the same locality
for making BLOCKADE" whisky. The
camp Is anything which will protect
lIe workmen from the weather. The
bark is peeled from the tree and the
rough outer portion Is scraped off. 1t
is then broken to cook 1t. A fire is
started and the resulting steam is led
1hrc gh pipe and finally condensed.
The heavy oil gathers in a receptacle,
while the water runs off. Three or
four men compose the usual crew.
one Of these spends all of his time at
the still, while the others gather and
prepare the bark. About twenty-five
bushels Of bark are used for every run
and it is said that this amount yields
approximately four pounds of oil.
Three or four runs a week can be
made. The method has been in use
for many years, and most of the ac-
cessible birch in the valleys has been
cut. Each year the oil makers have to
go farther back in the mountains.
Very often the stills are located In
isolated places which can be reached
only on foot, and all of the material
for the plants and camp are carried
in on the backs of the mountaineers.

Plethora cf Family.

In the absence Of their mother, little
Johns two older sisters were finding
1T rather difficult to manage their mis-
chievous four-year-old brother. One
day when he had especially tried their
patience they reported the matter to
their father just. as they We're sitting
down to dinner. Johns father promptly
scolded him, and when he had finished,
one sister, thinking that the culprit
had not been sufficiently i'm
pressed, gave her ideas on the sub
ject, and when she had concluded the
other sister added her opinion. All
this time John had made no remarks,
but had calmly continued to drink his
milk, only gazing attentively across the
top of his mug at each speaker in turr.
When at last they We're silent he set
down his mug and leaned back wearily
in his chair "Oh gee" he observed
dejectedly, II wisht 1 didn't have so
much family"

ACCORDING TO RANCH CODE
Cowboy Did the only Thing He Felt
There Was to Do Under the
Circumstances.

A story certainly untrue, but one
beautifully plausible, was told by the
Abilene (Kan.) Reflector 1t concerns
a man wholly definition, as the math-
ematicians say-had spent all his life
ON q remote cattle ranch and was ut
terly inexperienced in any tenderer or
gentler relations than those which ex-
list between men like himself and be-
tween them and their bovine charges.
This untutored yet thoroughly we'll
intentioned person, according to the
tale as told, at last went to a border
town and there, as might have been
expected, he fell promptly and violent
ly in love with the first woman with
whom he became acquainted. who hap
pened to be the pretty waitress who
served him at the table. His wooing
was equally vigorous and successful.
In few days the twain We're married
and together they started back for the
ranch on horseback.
A week later the cowboy returned
to the town alone and of deeply sor-
rOwful mAn. To the natural and inn
mediate inquiries that We're made as
to the whereabouts of his bride he re-
piled, with tears starting to his eyes
and running down his lean, bronzed
cheeks: "She broke her leg two days
out and had to shoot her. And | tell
you, boys" he added, Il hated to do it
she was such good woman Y

A rLUoKr NoMAvs ACHIEvEMENT.

A MEXICAN womanhood has scored another triumph.
IA Miss Ruth Bancroft Law, OF the most intrepid
woman avators in the world has made cross-country
flight Of 7S5 miles in hours and thirteen minutes
and established record for both men and women.
She eclipsed Carstroms recent remarkable record by
216 miles, and averaged 1856 miles hour in her
great no-stop achievement That is without regard,
OF course TO her continued fight from Bnghamton TO
New York city
Miss law is only 80 years old. She did not begin
making flights until 1912. II is the FIRST time she
has made a cross-oountry flight although she
has done much exhibition and short-hght work since
she took to the air In her sensational flight from
Chicago TO Binghamton. N. Y, her average altitude
was 5000 feet.
Her achievement is quite shock 20 men aviators,
because It was not known until a few days that
she contemplated endeavoring TO break Carlstrom's
record Even when 1t did become known, there we're
many experienced who asserted she would not
succeed In some quarters efforts made to dis
suade the slender young from attempting such
a feat. She insisted, however upon going up When
she squared away for the Atlantic coast she found
the going good that she felt she had the title in
her grasp. American cannot fail TO be glad
that an American woman has won such distinction in
the hazardous calling she has chosen.
