100000 years. This, OF course, is only
an approximation, but is based on
carefully studied scientific data.
All the water was once contained
in the vapor that surrounded the glow
ing, slowly cooling mass which is now
the earth. After the gases combined
to form water the process of making
the ocean salt began. This was the
work of the rivers. Mineral salts were
extracted from the rocks over which
they flow and deposited in the sea
Each year the action of the streams
is said to make the ocean slightly more
salty. and this is the basis on which
its age is calculated. The amount of
salt carried by the rivers of the world
is computed by the scientists and com
pared with the total quantity in the
ocean. After evaporation and the We
locity of currents have been consid-
cred, it is possibles to calculate how
long it has taken to make the sea
water as salty as it is today.
About three and half per cent of
mineral salts and 961a per cent fresh
water make up the oceans. Three
fourths of the solid matter is common
salt, other ingredients being chloride,
sulphate and bromide Gf magnesium
sulphate and carbonate of lime and
sulphate of potash, besides traces of
various other minerals and metals, in
Guiding gold and silver.

Corn ON the Cob


With keen delight my senses throb
there's good and ample reason; the
well-known corn upon the cob again
has come in season. The inner man
is full of cheer, my joy cannot utter,
and henceforth daily will l smear my
cheeks and chops with butter.
Let gourmets rave of classy cooks,
with French dishes dublin; Just let
me get my eager hooks on corn upon
the nubbin. Just lead me to a wait
ing plate of steaming coblets yellow.
and watch me start to devestate and
get quite corned and mellow.
Don't talk of squads or terrapins,
you'll rouse my scorn to fury, but
let me prop between my fins the
pride of old Missouri; the fodder fit
for man and beast, in golden butter
soaking, the cob of which from West
to East the Reubens use for smoking.
Old Nero never ate such grub when
he and Rome were slipping, with nee
tar oozing from the nub and on his
necktie dripping. With eager palate
all a-glow | grasp a lucious earful,
and hold it like piccolo and make
some music cheerful.
All, tempting stalk Of golden maize,
with well-known proteins laden; we
husked you in the olden days, then
grabbed and kissed a maiden. The
vision fills my heart with cheer, what

Visitors From Moscow.

Dr.. and Mrs. H. J. Smith and son,
Richard, former residents of this place
but of recent years located at Moscow
where the doctor enjoys an extensive
dental practice, are in the city visiting
with relatives and renewing acquaint-
anceship with their former trends. The
doctor sustained a severe injury to
his feet some time ago and since has
been greatly bothered. Recently he
underwent an operation and while con-
valescing is taking advantage of the
period in the way of vacation. Dr.
Smith owns valuable farm in this
section. They will remain here for
several days.-Grangeville Globe

BASE BALL SORES
STILL SART|NGM
GENESEE NEWS SAYS PEOPLE
THERE WERE TRYING TO
FORGET SORE SPOTS

Some time ago we called attention
to the fact that many sore spots had
been caused by ball games and sug-
gested that base ball team might
be liability instead of an asset to
town. Since then the Kendrick
Gazette has devoted much space to
trying to prove that ball team helps
town and that Juliaetta tried to
steal game from Kendrick but did
not succeed. Our contention that ill
feeling is often created between towns
because of base ball games, seems to
be substantiaed by the following from
the Genesee News, of this week:
Just Little Sore.
Col. Chas. E. Walks was in Genesee
from Moscow Tuesday afternoon and
was somewhat on the warpath, haul
ing some of the local baseball fans
and the News man over the Goals for
alleged misstatements regarding the
baseball situation, dating back to
July 8, A and 5.
Charley stated his reasons for not
taking on" either Genesee or Union
town during the tournament at Mos
COW during the big celebration, but
we failed to see where he clarified the
situation much by coming to town and
terming all who voiced their opinions
as knockers.
He accused the News man of being
"knocker" because he made the
statement in the Uniontown Press
that after the Moscow aggregation
had been defeated by Uniontown that
he had gone home "shy several
pounds of conceit" He denied that
he had made the statement that Gen
esee or Uniontown "were not good |
enough to play ball with Moscow "and
said that other misstatements had !
been made. So far as we are person
ally concerned, we did not hear the
between Mr. Walks and
the managers of either team, but
merely used the information given us.
Be that as it may, we fail to appre-
ciate the fact that he came to Genesee
and proceeded to uncover the skeleton
and bring to life unpleasant feelings
that we were trying to forget.

Fruit Stolen.

Mrs. T. H. Herman is on the war
path-and she has a perfect right to
be. When she went to her cellar the
other day to make room for the stor-
age of her freshly canned fruit she
discovered that some sneak thief had
distracted some Is jars of pie cher
ries from her cellar. Just when the
fruit was taken she does not know,
but it is gone, nevertheless, and as a
result of which the Herman home will
suffer the shortage of several cherry
pies.-Genesee News.
