THE WHITE HOUSE.

THE home of the president OF the
j United States, generally known as
the White House, first became known
as such when it was painted white to
cover the marks of fire after being
partially burned by the British in 1914.
The foundation of this world-famous
structure was put down In October,
1902. 1t was the first building erected
in Washington. The site was picked
by President George Washington, who
also laid the corner stone.
The building was first occupied by
President John Adams, during the
summer of 1900. 1t is two stories and
basement, and contains 81 rooms. 1t
Is surrounded by spacious lawn and
gardens, which are inclosed by huge
iron fence. Whether viewed through
the heavy foliage of the giant trees
or across winters mantle of snow, II
always looks restful and dignifed.
The White House naturally has been
the scene of many tragedies and come
dies, much JOY, and also has had its
share of anxiety and grief. 1t holds
a peculiar interest for the people of
all nations, those Of the United States
In particular. 1t is q point of pill
grimage for thousands and thousands
of people annually, who come to adj
mire It's decorations and paintings
study the relics Of past occupants and
If opportunity offers, grasp the hand
of the first citizen of the land. To q
greater degree perhaps than any Other
building in the world, people of al
ages and ranks have mingled under Its
roof.

over the top Of the field and thus more
readily determine the position of the
rogues which must be removed. The
horse can be securely muzzled to pre-
vent injury other than that occasioned
by the tramping down Of plants.
It is not profitable to rogue fields
which are intended for the production
of grain or forage, but In the produc-
ing of seed, either for home planting
or the market, careful rougeing gives
returns both in dollars and cents and
in the satisfaction of growing pure
seed. Sorghums being open-pollinated
are subject to almost endless hybridi-
cation If stray plants Of other varieties
are allowed to mature in the field.
This intermixing of varieties results
in lack Of uniformity In ripenlng as
well as in the size Of the plants. thus
causing difficulty in harvesting and
marketing the crop. The use of pure
seed varieties which are known to be
adapted to the farmers climatic condi.
tons will be rewarded In bigger and
better crops.

The Wonders
of America
MESA VERDE NATIONAL PARK.
By T. T. MAXEY

IN 1888 there was discovered in
: Montezuma county, southwestern
Colorado, the greatest prehistoric ruins
in this country. A thorough examina-
ton of the canyon of the Mancos
river disclosed the fact that 1t con-
fained extensive examples of the mys-
terious remains of an extinct race.
Uncle Sam decided to preserve and set
aside nearly $4,000 acres as a national
park-Mesa Spanish for high table
iand) and Verda (meanlng green, from
the cedar trees).
Many narrow canyons with high,
sheer walls open into the valley. In
their sides are many of the best-pre-
served specimens Of cliff dwellings
known. A large human population
lived In these cave-huts ON the sides
Of these sandstone cliffs. They be-
lieved that they were dependent upon
the gods to make the rainfall so their
crops would grow and worshiped the
sun as the father of all and the earth
as the mother who brought all material
blessings, Apparently they possessed
no written language and recorded their
thoughts only by means of symbols.
Cliff Palace, the largest dwellings
community house-had over 200 dwell
ing rooms, In addition to many sacred
rooms called kivas. Sun Temple,
mysterious ruin, shaped like letter
ID, is over 100 feet long end GA feet
wide.
AS the population of this community
increased the floor of the caves was
covered with rooms, and finally they
emerged from the caves altogether ant
builded pueblos on top Of the mesa'
In the open country.
A visit to these ruins is much hk'
going back into another world.

THE GRAND CANYON IN ARIZONA

felt like It,"
The Grand Canyon of the Colorado
RIver-the most wonderful geological
and spectacular phenomenon known to
MANS in Arizona. Discovered by
Spanish explorers In 1910, it has been
an object Of wonder and admiration
ever since. In approaching 1t your
first surprise is that you are not pre-
pared for 1t. Its beginning is so very
abrupt In one jump from the edge
you could go down 1900 feet.
Viewed from the rim, looking down,
1t is a stupendous panorama--an unbe-
lievable abyss, 5000 to 5000 feet deep,
10 to 10 miles wide and 200 miles long.
It's sides are lined with countless and
varied ornamental architectural fea-
lures, the whole beautifully tinted and
colored and marveiously harmonious,
Seen from the bottom, looking up, II
is so big that 1t amazes and bewilders
one. On every side are endless pro.
cessions Of caves, terraces, pinnacles
towers, buttes cliffs and peaks-storm'
carved and weather-stalned-many OF
them higher than any mountain east
of the Rockies, yet none OF them level
with the top. Globe trotters say that
nothing else In all the world even re
motely approaches this spectacle.
The color combination seems Il
shift with every movement of the sun
clouds or your position. There is q
trail to the bottom and a road around
the rim.

heat. During hot weather hogs need
an abundance of shade-natural shade,
such as Is furnished by trees and
bushes being the best.
Temporary Shelter.
Where natural shade and shelter are
not available, the hog owner should
put up temporary shelter by building
a framework about 4 feet high and
thoroughly covering the top with
brush, straw, grass, or hay. This mex
pensive sunshade should be of suffi-
Client size to protect herd of hogs In
comfort as they lie under It. As rule.
the ordinary hog house should not be
used for shade purposes during the
summer. Each year hog mortality is
comparatively heavy due to ''porker
sunstroke" induced by maintaining the
hogs in the open without sufficient pro-
lection from the rudy glow of Old
Soils furnace.

EXAMINE LAND FOR ALFALFA
Frequent Behring'S Should Be Made
With Anger to Determine Char

In examining tract of land for a.

with a soil auger to determine the
character of the soil and subsoil az
well as the drainage conditions. This
instrument usually will be of greater
value in determining the adaptability
of a particular tract to alfalfa than Q

THIS beautiful valley-now part Of

eight miles long ana less than two
miles wide. The park embraces do
main about SO by 4S miles. Here the
supreme artist has chiseled and etched
and painted an outdoor gallery Of mag
terpieces unlike any other in the world.
The Indians termed the place the
Heart Of the Sky Mountains and called
It 1.-THE Vale of the Advance" and
themselves Ahwaneeches, or children
of Light"
The excelling features Of the Yo-
semitic are its waterfalls and sheer,
bold cliffs. Snow-waters from high
mountains have found wonderful
variety and beauty of courses down
the mountain walls to the MERGED river
in the valley below. These peculiar
peaks strikingly resemble huge domes
and range in height all the way from

descend their rugged sides range in
height from $50 feet-Vernal falls,
