Rubber from Sagebrush

The question of producing a rabbit
rush that will be suitable for manu-
lcturing rubber on a large scale was
he prime purpose of the recent visit
II. II. Hall, botanist representing
lie Carnegie institution, TO Fallon, il
as been announced says the
Standard.
Hall brought six specimens of the
rush from Gerlach to be transplantcd

lin seven percent of rubber while the

or cent. Hall had with him during
is visit a plant that weighed sixty
ounds. The purpose of the expert
iental work is to produce a large
liant that will contain high percent
{ rubber by grating and selection
The plant is a typical desert plant.
ccording to T.. Knight, chemist at

tand large amount of alkali Con
cquently it is possible, if suitable

As by-product of the rubber pro-

The method now being perfected

THINGS WE DON'T SEE

II you were to pass along the street
with head high in the air you might
step on a twenty dollar bill without
seeing it, while the man with his
eyes below the clouds would pick it
up.
In that simple statement there is
a mighty sermon which it would prof
il us to learn and heed.
There are none of lis so great but
what we can afford to be humble
none so far seeing but what we can
profit by looking around us.
Success is founded upon our ability
to observe and take care of the little
,hings of life, for it from them the
Dig ones grow
The things we don't see are our
thief distractions in the world of af-
airs, yet to the man who keeps his
mind high and his eyes upon the
ground they are plain to be seen,
md are but stepping stones to greater
achievements.
Let us take the lesson home to
ourselves in the beginning of this new
year There are many little things
II this community that need attention,
but we can not see them if we dream
only of the end, adm give no thought
to the beginning.

POLICE CARRY
POCKET PHONES

Chicago policeman are going to
carry small wireless telephones IN
Their pockets. This type OF telephone
viii have a receiver but no transmit
ter. The policeman can listen to
message from headquarters, but can
not call up to give one himself. A
buzzine sound from the lining of the
policcman's coat, where the receiving
antennae have been placed, will be
bis i9nal that a superior officer
wants to talk with him.
The little phones will give police
headquarters an immense advantage
in fighting crime. Suppose robbery
has been committed on a certain
street Some one telephones head
quarters. Almost instantly all the
nearest policemen can be notified.
The time saved will be of great value
in catching the criminal.
These pocket instruments may be
improved later so that the policeman
can himself talk to headquarters. Pa
troll wagons have already been equip
ped with wireless telephones that will
both send and receive messages.

Chinese Family Relations.

There Is no such species as the "old
naid' in China. The lot Of the con-
cupine Is not, generally speaking.
hard; and the position is respectable.
\ concubine is ordinarily taken In
iefault of issue from the wife. The
children Of concubines are legitimate.
A man would not dare to brace public
opinion or the wrath Of his wife and
her relations by taking a concubine
against his wife's wishes. Father and
mother are equally venerable In the
eyes of the child; the father Is "the
stern one" and the mother "the gen.
tie one but both are VIGOROUSLY In
lulgent to their children.
