TREES WORTH VISITING.
Monsters Of Calaveras Grove Cali.
fornia Have Growth Of Centuries.

One OF the most interesting sight
seeing places in California for the
nature lover is Calaveras Grove, IA
nous for the grandeur and age Of its
big trees. The grove is privately
owned and is in a small valley near
the headwaters of the San Antonio, at
an elevation of 4,702 feet. In the grove
are ten trees, each thirty feet in di-
ameter, and more than seventy trees
between fifteen and thirty feet in di-
ameter.
One of the trees. now down. the
father Of the forest" must have been
$50 feet high and forty feet in di-
ameter. In 1853 one of the largest
trees ninety-two feet in circumference
and over 900 feet high, was cut down.
Five men worked twenty-five days
Telling it, using large augers. The
stump of this tree has been smoothed
off and now accommodates thirty-two
dancers. In 1858 a newspaper. The
Big Tree Bulletin. was printed there.
Near the stump is a section of the
trunk twenty-five feet in diameter
and twenty feet long; beyond lies the
immense trunk as 1t fell, measuring
302 feet from the base to the extremity.
Upon this was situated barroom and
tenpin alley, stretching along its upper
surface for a distance of eighty-one
feet, affording ample space for two
alley beds side by side.
At the entrance to the grove were,
until 1919, two fine trees called the
Sentinels. Only one is now standing
the other having been blown down in
| the great windstorm of 1919. South
OF the Sentinels and to the right OF
the road on the hillside stands a tree
over Il feet in diameter, which has
been named Old Dowd. in honor of the
! discoverer of the grove, which dis
covery was made in 1852. The south
grove extends three and one-hali
miles and contains 1880 large trees
Any tree there under IS feet in cir
cunference is not considered a large
tree.

TASTY DISHES FROM
EASTERN COUNTRIES
Mutton and Lamb DeIicacies Of
Turkey and Syria Tested
Here and Approved.

Recipes originating among the Turks,
Armenians and Syrians, who for gen.
erations have been expert IN preparing
lamb and mutton into appetizing meat
dishes, are suggested 70 the American
housewife as a way to add variety to
meals by thdDepartment of Agriculture
In most of these dishes some tart
vegetable or fruit is combined with the
meat to give the acid flavor which is
generally liked with lamb or mutton and
which is usually produced by the use Of
mint sauce. caper sauce and Jelly.
4 typical Turkish dish is 'sarina," or
rolls made of meat and broken rice,
wrapped in grape leaves and then boiled,
the grape leaves giving the rolls an
apetizing mild acid taste. The same
idea is made use of in the following
recipes:
