The petrified forest of Arizona ,..u-
series of petrified forests lies a sho,t
distance south of Adamana, on tho l,ns
OF the Santa Fe railway. There a.,
four forests. included in governm...
reservation called Pctriaed Forest n,

Approximation in 1906.

are all PROSTATE and are broken into
sections. The logs are the remains a,
giant trees that grew In triassic time
the age of reptiles.
The trees were of several kinds hr
most of them were related to the M,
folk island pine. now used for indoor
decoration. Doubtless they grew in
nearby region and, after falling, drift
ed down a watercourse and lodged IN
some eddy or sand bank. Later they
were buried by sand and clay, fnaIly
to depth of several thousand feet
The conversion to stone was effected
by gradual replacement of the woody
material by silica In the form called
chalcedony. deposited by underground
water. A small amount of iron oxides
deposited at the same time has given
the brilliant and beautiful brown. yel
low and red tints which appear ID
much of the material.
Some of the tree trunks are six feet
In diameter and more than 100 feet In
length. In the first forest there Is
fine trunk that forms natural bridge
over a small ravine, the water having
nrst washed away the everything clay
and sand and then, following crevice
worked out the channel underneath
The length of this log is no feet and
the diameter four feet at the butt and
one and a half feet at the top.-United

FALL GRAINS NOT OVER so P. G.
Hay Crops Light But Amount of Feed
Depends on Grain Hay.

The prospect for a crop ON Camas
Prairie this year is a general subject
of pessimism these days. The continued
dryness seems to promise nothing but
complete humiliation of the growing
grain. In dicussion with Victor Peter.
son at the Union Warehouse today we
gained some general ideas of conditions
in this section. Mr.. Peterson meets and
talks with all the farmers and is well
posted on the crop situation. He said in
part:
In the first place the Grangeville
section, that part of the prairie, lying
| Immediately about the town is decidedly
behind all other parts of the prairie
We had more rain here in the spring,
the crops were put in later and the
drouth of the last few weeks has hit us
harder than other sections. An estimate
on the crop is always matter of guess
work. Growing grain always depends
directly on the weather and estimates
may change from day to day. But at
least it can be said that fall grain in
this section will not make over a so
per cent crop. Much of it is ripe now
and many fields look good but there
will be no large crops. Even fall grains
depend greatly on the weather of the
next two weeks but they are now past
a point where complete recovery is i'm
possible. An estimate on the fall grain
could not be put over so per cent.
With regard to the hay crop little
can be said to certainty. The regular
hay crop, timothy is already cut and did
not amount to more than 80 per cent of
a normal yield. Alfalfa is reported to
be good but the amount of it on the
prairie is too small to have any appre.
clable effect on the crop as a whole.
Some clover is being cut for hay but it
is very light and the small acreage of
IT makes ii almost negligible. Of
course large amounts of spring and
some fall grain will be cut for hay.
The heaviness of this crop depends en-
tlrely on the weather. IF conditions
are favorable and we have rain at the
RIGHT times grain hay will turn out well.
OF course it will not equal a normal
crop but with favorable weather durino
the next month we should have enopob
hay on the prairie to feed our stock dur
ing the winter
Plenty of hay can be gotten right

cause of the uncertainty of production
here. Timothy can be laid down here
now % dollars ton. What the
price will be this fall there is no wav
of saving but it probalv viii not be
more.
You cannot figure as MANY peo-
pie do that the high price of hay and
GOOD hay crop will make up for the
failure in other lines. The high price
OF hay is decidedly detriment and an
item of expense to this country. II
would be benent if we had a large sur.
plus of hav to ship out. but however
much of it is cut, there win not be more
than enough for home eonsnmntion
On the other hand it is likely that we
VIII have to ship hay in and will have
TO pay an unusual price for it. But !

TOPPING ICEBERGS.

Vanish and Leave No Trace
Admittedly the worst danger menae

Gays, with steamers Of such speed @

collision with an iceberg In q dense

Most probably some ships that van

turning Of bergs from the impact OIL
collision. The corrosive action OF sail
water on the submerged mass Wild
the play Of the sun on the exposea
portion. often produces such delicate
iy balanced berg that the touch Of .
mans hand will upset 1t. Often New
foundland fishermen cutting fragments
from bergs to pack round their bait VI
catch OF fish are destroyed by the nuse
masses rolling right over. sending mep
