FIND LOST EMERALD MINE

Rediscovery of one of the lost emerald
mines in Columbia, South America, where
hawless gems of rich and vivid green,
valued as high as $1,000 carat, have
been found in almost unlimited numbers,
became known the other day.
This mine is about 100 miles northeast
from Bogota, capital of Columbia, in one
of the widest mountain ranges in South
America. 1t was worked long ago by the
Indians and some of the adventures from
Spain, who died without revealing the
secret.
The rediscovered mine is known as the
Chivor, and has lain for more than CEN
tury in the mountain near Bogota, while
scores have searched for its location.
News that the Chivor had been found
after search of years became known
when stock in it became unattainable in
Wall street, after doubling at almost
every sale. A short time ago the stock
was inactive at $40 share Now those
said to be on the inside were talking about
$4,000 and $4,000 share for their stock
The mine is said to hold untold millions
in emeralds. A small mountain river
washes clean what is described as the
most hawless white rock ever seen, in
which are small "boulders."
The emeralds are hidden inside the
"boulders," each containing at least one
emerald Of large size, seldom being worth
as little as $1OO a carat and more often
$1,OOO.-Nezv York american.

OLD THEORY MAY BE RIGHT

We have lately been taught that the
mosquito was the only disseminator of
malaria, and that we should be safe if
we got rid of mosquitoes. But Doctor
Roux, formerly chief physician of the St.
Louis hospital, Jerusalem, asserts as the
result of his own experience of 20 years
and of that of many colonial physicians
that malaria often exists where there are
no mosquitoes.
At Reunion and Sene, for instance, the
malaria season is just that when there are
no mosquitoes; at Hatou, Londin, natives
living near a mosquito-infested marsh do
not contract malaria while those living in
the hills where there are no mosquitoes are
victims.
He points out that everywhere IN
malarial countries the disease breaks out
lust at the time when the soil is broken for
planting. He does not deny that the ano-
phees mosquito spreads malaria, but he
saws this is evidently not the only means
of infection.
The old theory that malaria was caused
by the bad air of swampy districts or by
certain emanations from the soil may be
correct, after all.-Ex.

MIRRORETTES

MIRRORETTES
The ball game Saturday was called
of-rain.
Mass was held in the chapel Sunday
morning.
The night school opens next Monday,
the 18th, which accounts for large number
of cell changes noted in this issue.
The oat crop has been threshed, about
5000 bushels resulting therefrom. The
wheat will probably be threshed the first
week in October.
This is State Fair week, with the
usual large number of visitors. About
500 were disappointed Monday, Labor
Day, which was observed as a holiday at
this institution.
The M.S.P. ball team met a worthy
foe Labor Day and were defeated 8 to 8.
The Merose Granite Co.'S. team of St.
Cloud, the opponents, pounded two pitchers
from the box in the fourth and fifth inn
ings, garnering seven runs thereby. The
game, although one sided, was interesting,
and the locals made game fight.
The following products have been re-
ceived from the prison truck farm: 1900
bushels of potatoes, 1,400 dozen ears of
corn, 5000 pounds of cabbage, $50 bushels
of rutabagas. The tomato crop was not
good this year, only 100 bushels having
been received. 200 bushels of cucumbers
have been gathered and are now being
picked for the winter months

RECOLLECTION

Just little bit of heaven
Comes to me each lonely day,
Ev'ry ev'ning as l mediate
And dream the hours away.
Then a graceful form steals softly in
On Mem'ry's silent wings;
To my eyes fairy picture
Of a gentle mother brings.
Then the hours pass by unheeded
As 1 gaze with wonder rare
On the face of her loved,- and lost
Spun out of dreams and air.
Yet 1 know she is not wholly lost
Her mem'ry still remains
In ev'ry thought of bygone years
AS ev'ry slow day wanes.
Oh, sweet dreams do not forsake me
Let he come to me each night,
Let me look upon her silv'ry hair
And see her smile so bright.
Though it only be vision
Made of dreamy thoughts and air
Each long ev'ning brings me solace
If see my mother there.

"THE FLIVER"

Henry Ford he made the Aiver,
True it cost him not much doe;
And like Henry Fulton's steamboat
People said it wouldn't 60.
Ford he is no great inventor
lust because he made that buss;
Look once at the. carburetor,
And how quickly tin will rust.
Then look at his little engine
And the springs, Oh! me, Oh! my,
Don't you get some awful humping
When in his old buss you ride?
You will find them always painted
With shiny coat of black.
Gee and when you try to crank it
Don't you almost break your back?
lust the same old "Lizzies" wanted,
You will find her everywhere;
And by her your always haunted
Or the bills for her repairs.
"Liz" will take you on vacations;
She don't use no oil or gas;
"Liz" runs on her reputation
Though they say she's only trash.
Well I'll say you got to hand it
To the man who made that buss.
He deserves a lot of credit
Though the thing is tin and bluff.

AT PARTING

And you will miss me too, my dear,
Some day in haunting tune,
Or by the side of the singing sea
Under summer moon.
A-sudden your heart will be stirred
with grief
And stabbed with lonely pain,
And your eyes will fill with unbidden
As you vision this hour again.
For moments space you will feel at
The sorrow that now l know,
And your lips will murmur broken
prayer
For the pain of the long ago.
And though my hurt should be dormant,
then,
And stilled by the living years,
1t will wake again to comfort you,
Heart of my heart, to comfort you
In the comradeship of tears.

Manhattan, Kans, May A. An aver
age return per acre Of $73-55 was OBJ
tanned by pasturIng six cows on a
small pot of Sudan grass at Manhat-
tan last summer The test, along with
other experiments on the same sub
ject, is described in circular 80 of the
Kansas station, just published, en-
titled Sudan Grass as Supplement-
Pasture Crop for Dairy Cattle Some
of the conclusions contained in the
circular, prepared jointly by Prof. l.
E. Call, and Prof J. B. Fitch, are here
reproduced.
Sudan grass is the best annual
pasture crop for Kansas now known
1t can be grown in any part of the
state but is especially valuable in CEN
trail and western Kansas It makes its
greatest growth and produces the
most feed during July, August and
September when other tame grasses
and native grass pastures are the
least productive. It can therefore be
used to the best advantage to sup
plement these pastures.
Many dairymen find that milk pro
duction declines very noticeabIy dur
ing July when they depend upon native
pastures alone. If the cows can be
turned upon Sudan grass during the
summer months, milk production viii
not only be maintained but the native
pastures will be rested and improved
so that much better feed will be avail
able during the late fall months thar
| If they had been used continuously
| Many farmers in Kansas have usee
| Sudan grass successfully for pastur,
| for dairy cows, and its use for thi.
purpose is rapidly increasing. Their.
IS good reason to believe that it SHOULD
be used more extensively"

HESSIAN FLY SITUATION II
KANSAS NOT ALARMING

The Hessian fly menace to the win
ter wheat crop OF Kansas has been
largely removed by the splendid CO.
operation of Kansas farmers with the
Kansas State Agricultural College
and the Federal Department of Agri-
culture During the spring and sum
mer of last year, Hessian fly con-
dIt1ons were such as seriously to
threaten the entire eastern half of the
State but owing to preventive meas
ures adopted, conditions now are not
serious, except in a few local districts,
and no serious damage is likely to
occur This announcement is made by
specialists of the United States De
partment of Agriculture. On the
other hand, they say, severe damage
to winter wheat by Hessian fly con-
tlnues to be reported from New Jer-
sey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, In
diana, Illinois and other Middle West
ern States.
