Why Nature Makes So Many Drones

Every beehive has hundreds of
drones, lazy fellows who stay at home
when the weather is chill or wet eat
the food their toiling sisters bring In.
and lead life of ease and luxury.
The time comes, however. when the
queen bee Is born, and goes about her
wicked work of singing to death all
her sister queens before they can
emerge from their cells. She takes
short flights thereafter for several
days. and at the end of a week Is
ready for her bridal trip. She dashes
out In Overwhelming spirals, and after
her rush the suitors, 20, 80. perhaps
1000. AS she is the strongest and
swiftest of all, 1t is but following I'M
til she, weary Of her trip or ready for
the climax Of her existence, turns and
greets the first of the drones to reach
her side. He dies In her very embrace,
and she wings back to the hive where
she lays upward Of half million eggs.

GEM HAS PLACE IN HISTORY
Why Great Ruby Has Been Given
Position Of Honor In British
Monarch's State Crown.

The history OF England might be
written round the gems that adorn the
royal emblems. Place of honor in the
front of the kings state crown is given
to the great ruby, which Is as large
as a small hens egg, and is the cele-
hrated and historic jewel which first In
its English history belonged to the
Black Prince, the eldest son of Edward
III. The ruby came to him In knightly
fashion on the field of battle, being
given to the Black Prince by Don Pc
dro. king of Castillo, for skill shown
in a short campaign In Spain. The
ruby does not appear In history until
II took part in the battle of Agincourt,
when Henry V went at the head of his
troops with the ruby glittering on the
front OF his coroneted helmet. More
than a century later, when Charles |
was beheaded, it was ordered by par
lament that all the insignia of royalty
should be destroyed, and the gems set
therein sold to the best advantage. In
the list appears the statement that the
great ruby was sold for e. and passed
to some unknown purchaser. "He may
have been a royallst in disguise or he
may have been a dealer in stones, or
this may have been spurious deal to
favor a parliamentarian but
whatever its adventures during the
commonwealth era, we find the ruby
safe and sound back In the state crown
of Charles H."

How to Make Shoe Comfortable.

There is lot to dc when you have
an uncomfortable shoe besides COM
plain. One thing, of course, Is to
exchange it, but suppose the shoe Is
really good fit, really large enough,
or suppose you have worn 1t so that
II cannot be exchanged.
This is what woman shoe seller
said recently; Just rub the handle of
a button hook over the spot In the
lining of the shoe that seems to pull
or hurt. This gentle rubbing loosens
the lining and nine times out of ten
that Is all that makes the shoe hurt.
The lining is pulled little tight in
one spot or other, and needs loosen
ing, and the shoe-buttoner handle does
the work.

UNDERGROUND WATER
IN STATE Of NEVADA

A large supply of good water, avail
able for irrigation, was found by the
United States Geological Survey, De-
partment of the Interior, by drilling
test wells in Steptoe valley, a desert
basin near Ely, New. Three wells were
drilled, the deepest to depth of 915
feet, but the largest supply of water
was found rather near the surface
and can be recovered at moderate
cost. The well that Is regarded as
model for use in irrigation is on
nearly level arabic land 25 miles
north Of Ely and "a miles from the
nearest railroad. 1t is 10 inches in
diameter and 122 feet deep. 1t passes
through 55 feet of waterbearing
gravel, and the water level in it is
only IA feet below the surface. 1t is
finished with double stovepipe casing,
which is perforated at all water hori-
IONS. In a test this well was pumped
for hours at rate of 262 gallons a
minute with a drawdown of less than
feet, from which it is inferred that
with a drawdown of 20 feet it would
deliver at least l second-foot of
water, or enough to irrigate so acres
of land. Samples of water drawn
from several horizons were analysed,
and all were found to be of good
quality for use in irrigation.
Ground Water In Nevada.
The surface features of Nevada
consist of rugged, nearly parallel
mountain ranges and broad interven-
ing valleys that are underlain to a
great depth with rock wastes washed |
from the mountains. These great de-
posits of rock waste were in large |
part laid down by torential streams
and are therefore relatively coarse
and porous, so that the rain which
falls upon them and the run-off which
reaches them, and the desert valleys
in which they lie consequently appear
exceptionally arid. These deposits,
however, constitute huge reservoirs
in which the water they receive is
stored So well is this water hidden
that its existence may not be suspect
ed, and there is necessarily much I'M
certainty as to it's occurrence and |
quantity, but by proper observations |
it Is generally possible to find areas |
where the ground water is near the |
surface and to make forecast of the |
depth to water in adjacent areas. 1t
is also generally possible to estimate
roughly the quantity of water that
is annually available and to predict
to some extent the capacity of wells,
the quality of the water. and the cost
of recovery. To begin to develop
these valleys without first investigat-
ing it's underground conditions is as
unwise as 1t would be to start to build
railroad without first having the
route surveyed, and the financial re-
suits are likely to be no less disas-
trous.
Suggestions to Prospective Settlers.
Though Nevada and the adjacent
states contain in the aggregate
large unutilized supply of good water
that can be recovered by sinking
wells, prospective settlers must be
warned against undue optimism as to
the profits they can make by irriga-
ton with we'll water. The cost of
