maple and other well-known trees Of
the Appalachian range, the perfection
of their native shrubs, the luxuriance
of their wild flowers, the charm Of
their wild valleys and lakes, and the
stirring views of island-dotted sea
from their slopes and SUBMITS bring
visitors back again summer after sum-
mer. All of these mountains were in
private possession; summer estates
were shutting out large areas from
public use. That is why a group of
public-spirited men undertook a dozen
years ago to acquire the mountains
and present them to the nation. Some
gave their estates, others gave money
to buy holdings which could not be got
by gift The Mount Desert National
park, when congress thus creates it,
will stand also for the fine generosity
and public spirit of New England.
older Than the Rockies.
Summer visitors always are inter-
ested in the extreme age of these
mountains. They are granite of the
Archean age. They stood there doubt
less far loftler and perhaps serrated,
before the now loftier Rockies and the
Sierra Nevada even emerged from the
prehistoric sea. These SUBMITS have
been rounded in the intervening many
millions of years by the frosts and the
rains and the giant ice sheets which
descended time and again from the
north. The record of the glaciers may
be read still upon their slopes.
The mountains are entirely sur
rounded by fine automobile roads along
the shore which connect the seaside
resorts, But in many places the cliffs
spring straight from the ocean, whose
waves lash and corrode their granite
feet. A greater variety of sensations
may be had from this combination of
sea and mountain than is offered by
any Western national park, however
large and majestic.

DEMAND FOR HONEY

The present honey crop of the
United States barely exceeds
250,000.000 pounds. That the
country produces even this much
is unknown to most people, it is
stated; for while honey was the
chief form of sugar used in an
cient times, the ease of getting
cane or beet sugar has placed
honey in the background. Now
that our sugar supply is reduced
by reason Of supplying the al
lies with part of the sugar they
need, the demand for honey has
increased not only domestically
but also for export.

Smoke is valuable weapon In this
war; 1t is extensively used on both
sides to mask military and naval move
ments, and elaborate means have been
devoted to throw up clouds of smoke.
A very interesting use of smoke is de-
seribed thus in Scientific American:
During a poisonous gas attack smoke
is employed to ward off the fumes. Be
ing considerably heavier than the poi
sonous gases generally employed. a
barrage of smoke causes the danger
Gus fumes to pass over trenches and
dugouts and to dissipate themselves
in the higher regions"

Cottage Cheese with Fruits.

AT this season Of the year when the
supply of fruits is at its highest and
large quantities have been made into
preserves, the combined use Of pre-
served fruits and cottage cheese as a
food-saving system should not be over
looked. The United States depart

HT@tIE bill before congress to ere
ate the Mount Desert National
park upon Mount Desert Is
land, Maine, has called spe-
cial attention to one of the most dis
tinguished scenic places In the coun-
try. Already 1t is national reserva-
ton, President Wilson having pro-
claimed it the Sieur de Monts National
monument two years ago. The move
ment to promote it to national park
hood marks the appreciation of New
England and the country generally re-
sulting from the public attention de-
voted to this spot in consequence of
the presidents act.
Sieur dc Monts is the only spot on
the Atlantic coast where sea and noun
tain meet. Also It is typical in the
best sense of the magnificence of the
Geclduous forests of the East; these
are not elsewhere represented in the
national scenic group. Mount Des-
ert win be the only national park
east of the Mississippi.
Many thousands of persons who do
not identify this splendid group of sea-
grit mountains under it's present title
of Sieur de Monts win place it at
once under the title proposed for the
national park, as the granite heights
which rise behind Bar Harhor and the
other resorts Of Mount Desert Island.
The rounded SUBMITS of more than
dozen low mountains and the beautiful
lakes which nestle at their feet are
Enclosed in the reservation. Nowhere
else may the pleasures of seashore and
rock-bound coast be combined with
those OF wild mountainous wilder
ness.

NEW YORK COFFEE MARKET

New York, July 1s.-A steadier tone
prevailed in the coffee market this morn
ing, and prices were to points higher
The demand was not particularly active
and confined to the May position, which
sold at &c on the call, or points above
Ast nights close.
The war trade board announced today
that the United States shipping board
has allotted a vessel to carry coffee from
Brazil to New Orleans. which vessel will
sail from Brazil, August Is to 20; rate
$40 per bag.
Trading during the morning was in
active, but prices held the early ad-
vance. Interest was limited to the
May position, with trade interests the
principal buyers.
Cost and freight prices continue out
of line with the ideas Of local buyers in
connection with values, and a very small
business is anticipated until there is a
readjustment one way or another.
Brazil recently has been asking for
information in regard to the price i'm
porters might pay for coffee, and at the
present time the ideas of buyers and
sellers appear to be about a cent a
