to recuperate as promptly as possible.
Fertilizing should be continued, and
will probably need to be as heavy, or
nearly as heavy, as if no freeze had
occurred. Those trees that produce
bloom should receive special attention
in the way of fertilization, since it is
quite probable that citrus fruit will
bring an excellent price next year.
The crop following the freeze of 1886
was larger than that before the freeze.
That freeze, however, occurred on the
18th of January. In other respects
the present conditions are, however,
quite similar. Those trees that do
not produce bloom will not require
much, if any, potash or phosphate
acid. Their principal need will be

One of the most amazing things in

far the most numerous, no fewer than
10000 distinct species having been

backboned animals.
Beetles are found practically every

Iceland and in the hot desert sands of
Africa, on the highest mountains, un-
der the ground and as fossil in the
deepest strata, Oh land and in water,
on plants, among stones and in wood
and earth and even In the very craters
Of volcanoes.
But there is one place where no beetle
has yet been found. 1t is the inhospi-
table land of Spitzbergen, to the north
of Russia. Here are found the man.

HIGH TAX ON IDLE TRACTORS
Oklahoma Law Virtually Gives a
Bonus for Use Of Machines


Oklahoma City-Of no little i'm
portance to owners Of motor trucks
and tractors; as we'll as those who
have high priced cars and expect to
leave them in the garage most of the
summer, is an opinion Of the highway
department by Attorney General
Freezing. The opinion followed a
letter from farmer who has trac-
tor, he would not operate it this year
and wanted to know if he should pay
taxes imposed upon it.
The law passed by the last legis-
latufe placed tax on all self pro-
PEELED vehicles in two ways. When
being registered in the highway de-
partment for operation the cars or
tractors must pay a license tax. This
is based upon the horsepower. When
the machine is not used then it be-
comes liable for tax on an ad valo-
rem basis, and is listed as are other
taxes by the county assessor. This
tax goes directly into the county,
while the registration tax is paid in
to the state highway department.
There is difference of some i'm
portance between the ad valorem tax
and the registration tax. A $4,000
car assessed on an ad velorem basis
will be more expensive from a taxing
standpoint than if the registration
tax were paid.

possess such luxury, his girdle, for
the price Of a ticket for the pictures.
! One of the queerest places in
which picture show has taken place
is in the middle of the Arabian des-
ert. 1t was given by party Of
European film agents, who were ac-
companying an Arab caravan from
Smyrna across Asia Minor. A screen
was rugged up from bed sheets and
an acetylene lamp pressed into ser
vice for the lantern. The "orches-
ira" consisted of Arabs, and their
instruments were tom-toms and cam
ell bells. An hours show was given
and the spectators, composed of
some hundreds of Arabs attached to
the caravan, grouped themselves on
the desert sand, with the sky for a
roof.
But possibly the most out of the
way picturedome in existence is the
one discovered by Cherry Kearton,
the well known African traveller, in
Urganda. 1t belongs to the Kabaka,
or ruling chief, nice cultured youth
educated under an English tutor. He
possesses both his own moving pic
ture camera and his own private the

several of his films for him. And in

thousands of miles from civilization,
the white men saw screened, to their
amazement, films Of English, French
