STILL USE ST. BERNARDs
Tunnels, However, Have Greatly De-
creased His Importance in
the Alps.


Although the tunnels which now con-
meet Switzerland with Italy have
greatly decreased the importance of
the ST. Bernard and other passes, espe-
cially during the eight months of snow,
it is still deemed advisable to employ
st. Bernard dogs, 1t is no longer Gus
tomary, however, to send out the dogs
alone with baskets of food and drink
man always accompanies them.
These dogs are not really of the ia
nous old st. Bernard breed. That
originated in the fourteenth century,
through cross between n shepherd
dog from Wales and Scandinavian
dog whose parents were a Great Dane
and a Pyrenean mastiff. The last pure
descendant of this tribe was buried
under an avalanche in 1916. Fortu.
nately, there were found subsequently
ut MartlSny and on the Simplon pass
a few dogs which, by crossing with
mates from Wales yielded the modern
ST. Bernard dog, which is physically
even stronger than his medieval
namesake, and shares most of his
traits.

LARGE RETURNS FROM MINT
United States Supplies Bulk of Pep.
permint Oil for the
World.

The bulk of the peppermint oil of
the world Is produced on the muck
lands of southwestern Michigan and
few counties of northern Indiana. The
total yearly product is estimated at
100000 pounds. There are two yari-
cites Of peppermint, the American and
the English or Mitchem. The latter
has almost superseded the American.
being better adapted to our soil and
climate, and favored by the trade. 1t
is also harder and yields larger crops.
The ideal mint farm is one having
both high land and muck soil, which is
n distinct advantage on account of the
rotation and hypus in the soil, de-
cayed vegetation being essential to the
peppermint crop, BY the use OF prop
er amounts and kinds of commercial
fertilizer, large crops of mint can be
grown fol many years in succession
on the same ground. The mint plant,
after the oil is removed, makes very
desirable feed for live stock, returning
about the same amount,o food value
as an acre of ordinary meadow land,
besides the oil. Thus two profits are
harvested from one acre OF peppermint.
An acre of peppermint will yield
from 20 to 60 pounds of oil, while a
second cutting will yield from six to
20 pounds extra The farmer needs
no extra equipment to grow this crop
than found on the ordinary farm eY-
cept n small still to refine the oil In
Michigan and Indiana from 20 to 100
farmers cooperate in the operation of
stills, handling from 80 to 100 acres OF
peppermint in the one mill, 1t is now

Queer eurIal Custom.

Among the Indians OF Alaska llv.
Ing along the rock-bouSd coast of the
Berlng sea many old customs prevail
and it is still believed that when a
man dies he must pass forward
through four successive stages before
he reaches heaven. Thus his mourn
ers and family must spend four days
and nights in chanting songs or tell
Ing of his virtues and must eat only
The foods. OF which he was fond. AZ
the end Of that time the body of the
dead man is wrapped into bundle
and is hauled up through the roof
by strong ropes that the corpse may
not pass through any door used by
the living. Cremation follows and the
ashes are put into bag and stored in
the great wooden chests which fill
the family grave house.
In the old days these ceremonies of
those four days were very elaborate,
and the songs and chants used strik-
ing in their solemnity. Now. how
ever, much has been modernized. but
they still dislike the thought of en-
tcring a door through which a body
has been carried.
