Why Orchids Wore Gagged.

Visitors to the flower show held re-
Gently in the Royal Horticultural hall
at Westminster, England, were sur
prised to find a number Of rare ORCH
ids confined, like so many wild ami
mails In the zoo, within a heavy wire
cage. 1t was explained that as the
flowers represented a new addition to
the orchid family, the grower was nat
urally anxious that his fellow dealers
should not share his triumph. Had 1t
not been for the cage, an unscrupulous
competitor might have stolen some
Of the powdery pollen from the
blooms, and used II to fertilize plants
of his own. Normally adhering to the
bodies Of visiting insects, the pollen
might easily have adhered to the tip
Of the thief's flnger.--Popular Mechan-
les Magazine.

Country,s f.otive Energy.

The gauge of " nations industrial
might is the amount Of motive energy
which 1t can command for the mani
fold fields of Production and the es-
sential cOntributory activities. We
have maintained our supremacy in
manufactured output very largely be-
cause Of the vast amount of power
which we could call into service, Rob
ert G. Skerrett wrote in the Scientific
American. Modern nations expend
far more energy than the combined
muscular ability of their population
and beasts of burden. The margin is
covered by the employment Of we-
chanical energy in the form of power.
To accomplish the work done annually
IN the United States, would require
the labor Of 5000 OOO, 900 hard-working
slaves. The use Of power gives to
each man, woman and child In this
country the service equivalent Of thir-
ty servants.

MADE HIT WITH RECITATION
Princes Speech Consisted Of Verses
From the Koran, but Audience
Didn't Know IL.

It Is interesting to recall that dur
ing the recent European tour Of Prince
Feisal Of the new kingdom Of Syria.
his memory Of the Koranic verses
stood him In good stead. In London,
at a dinner In the Guildhall, the prince,
who was the guest of honor. and who
knew little French and less English,
was ca,sstf upon to reply to the toast
of his health. Beside HIM sat his
friend and mentor, Colonel Lawrence,
Oxford professor and oriental scholar,
% Whom he whispered as he rose to
acknowledge the lord mayors speech.
Colonel Lawrence nodded his assent,
and the prince addressed his audi
ehce I'm flowing Arabic periods. win
ming appreciation and applause.
When the guest of honor had re
sumed his seat. Colonel Lawrence. as
his interpreter. rose to express in Eng
Dish the princes sentiments of graft
tude for his reception. and to voice
his devotion to the principles of democ-
racy and allied solidarity. 1t was
not until many days had gone by
that Colonel Lawrence allowed 1t TO be
known among his friends that what
the prince had whispered to him was: !:
It'll recite the verses from the
Koran about the cow"
Thus did the diplomatic professor
deceive the unwilling ears Of his Guild
hall friends.-Munsey's Magazine.

Potatoes Selling High.

1.-THE advantage of being able to
market . crop slowly was brought to
my attention in striking way this
summer" remarked DR.. Stackhouse.
Il planted three and half acres Of
Irish potatoes between cotton rows
and gathered the potatoes in time to
cultivate the cotton without any diff
ficulty. 1 did not have a place in
which to store the potatoes and sold
them early, realizing $3.50 a bar
rel for them. The only profit 1 made
was the guano 1 used under the po-
tatoes. will make just as much or
probably more cotton where 1 had
the potatoes planted than I will make
On any other part of the field. When
sold my potatoes the market was
pretty we'll glutted and 1 felt that I
was lucky to get out with cost of pro-
duction. But few weeks ago the
market went to $3.50 per barrel and
a few days ago I received a letter
from wholesale house offering me
IS per barrel. If I had kept my DO
tatoes until now I would have had a
good profit in them This led me to
make some Investigations and find
that potatoes can be kept almost the
year round. provided they are packed
In ventilated barrels and stored in a
dark place. They will retain their
original flavor and can be kept
through the winter If they are not al
lowed to freeze. I believe it is a prof
liable crop IL person will store
them carefully and market them
gradually through the winter"

lndia,s Fertility.

India, more than half the size Of
Europe, has every variety Of surface,
climate and production. The contrast
between the level monotony Of the
Great plain and the beautiful con-
tours of the Milgiri and Pulney hills
Is no greater than that between the
arid heat Of Jacobabad and the polar
frigidity Of the Himalayas; or that
between the palm groves of Cochin and
the wheat fields of Lyallpur. The pro-
ductivity Of India extends over three
zones: the tropical, sub-tropical, and
temperate; though on account Of vary
ing elevations these do not always
comply with mere considerations *
latitude.

The Park and School Improvement Association, through their committees, are selling the Season tickets to the Chautauaua, and a portion of the pro ceeds go to these organizat tions, and will be used by them for the benefit of the community. They do not realize anything for other than Season ticket sales. and these tickets are the most economical, since a Season ticket costs not much over one-half of the amount of single admissions to the ten enter tainments of the Chautauqua. Further the sale of 300 adult Season tickets has been guaranteed by about thirty of our public spirited citizens, and un- less this number of tickets is purchas- ed by next Tuesday at the opening of the Chautauqua, these men will have to pay the deficiency. Therefore it is strongly urged that everyone purchase Season tickets to the Chautauqua, and get the benefit of the entire program, which is going to be an excellent one, and at the same time assist our ladies in selling their quota of tickets, and prevent loss on men who guaranteed the sale of the tickets. Lets all get busy and buy now.
