ing poison from reptiles. crystallizing
1t in small kiln and sending the
crystals to scientists in all parts of
the world who are endeavoring to find
remedy for snake bite.
Snake Business Big.
Few people In Brownsville realize
the volume Of business which flows
through "Snakeville." They daily see
scores Of boxes labeled Dangerous
Reptiles; Handle With Care" leave
and enter the express office, but 1t Is
an accustomed-grown sight. Dozens
of Mexican snake catchers are required
to keep the stream Of reptiles moving
into Kings pens.
Il have never charged a cent for the
poison crystals, nor do I ever expect
to charge anyone for the antitoxin,"
King states. II have saved the poison
and crystallized It for the benefit of
science. and I have the antitoxin for
the benefit Of anyone bitten by a rat
tlesnake.
Scientists throughout the world
have asked me for crystals, and I have
never failed to respond. provided was
assured they were to be used for legiti-
mate scientific purposes only"
1t is curious fact, King points out,
that the poison used to produced the
antitoxin works well only when It
comes from the family Of snakes from
which the bite has come. In the case
Of rattlesnake bite. King asserts, the
serum used is made from the blood Of
horse inoculated with rattlesnake
poison injected into the blood as near
and as soon after the bite as possible.
Sends Crystals to Brazil.
When the snake farm at Sac Paulo,
Brazil. was established by the Brazil
ian government and placed in charge
of advanced scientists. King was asked
by them for some crystals and anti
toxin. King supplied several quarts
of the crystals, representing the col
lections from about 10000 rattlesnakes.
King has branched out his business
to include birds and animals Of dlversi-
fled variety. Parrots. iguanas, ant
eaters, horned toads, wildcats, Mexi-
can lions, leopards and scores of other
specie of animal life of Mexico and
The Southwest are found on his farm.

Utilize Suns Rays to
Make Power by Steam

Beriin.-Germans, cold and rain
soaked and shivering in their winter
furs. were much cheered up recently
by the announcement that a professor
of Berlin university had invented a
sun machine. Subsequent explanations.
however disclosed that the machine
would not produce sunshine, which has
been so sadly lacking in Europe this
spring and summer, but would only
store up heat gathered from the sun
ana utilize 1t for power purposes.
Prof. Adolph Marcuse. in writing of
his machine, explains that the suns
rays are concentrated by lens and
conducted into ball with a small
mouth. The ball is polished outside
and black inside. The ball rests in an
Isolated vessel containing oil, which
becomes very hot and communicates
Its heat to water boiler, in which
steam Is produced. The apparatus is
regarded as being especially practical
in hot regions where sunlight is abun-
dant and fuel is scarce.
On a square meter the machine ex-
erts one and three-tenths horsepower
n second. 1t is expensive, but as the
costs of operation are slight. 1t Is esti-
mated 1t would pay for itself within

Crop Outlook Good All Over Colorado

Denver.-The outlook for all crops
in general in Colorado is above aver
age, and if the present favorable con-
ditions continue, good yields may be
expected, according to reports of the
United States Division of Crop and
Live Stock Estimates. Moisture con-
ditions are favorable, and although
many crops We're late in starting,
rapid growth is now being made. A
few complaints of labor shortage are
received
Winter wheat is filling well, and
harvesting is commencing in some
sections. Although the crop has
steadily improved, due to the thin
stands, the yields will generally be
light. few spring grains are now
making good growth and there is
promising outlook for good yield.
The corn area shows an increase,
and continued warm weather and IA
vorable moisture conditions are re-
sulting in rapid development. The
condition of grain sorghums Is gener-
ally good.
Apples are generally above average,
although some reports Of hail damage
and heavy June drop are received.
Pears and peaches are also above av-
erage. The cherry crop is generally
good with few poor reports noted.
All truck crops are in favorable
condition, with some hail damage re-
ported. Cantaloupes are developing
fast; lettuce Is generally good; onions
are above the average and cabbage Is
reported fair to good. Beans are gen.
orally good with a few poor stands
reported.
Ranges and pastures are generally
the best in years. All classes Of live
stock are in good condition with very
little disease reported. The first al
falfa crop was thin in some sections,
and rain caused much damage during
the harvest. The second crop is MAX
Ing rapid growth and other hay
crops are promising.
Potatoes are reported as being
above the average with little COM
plaint of excessive bug damage The
outlook for sugar beets is considered
good.

That year the marriage rate was 16.9

been exceeded since 1874, except for
the war and postwar years of 1915

The usual ages for the newly-weds

cept for the war years, the birth rate

Synthetic Product Found to Pos
sess Many Qualities of
Structural Utility.

Washington, d. C.-Experiments in
the making of artificial" lumber are
arousing increasing interest among
government officials and leaders in
the lumber industry.
Although none of the product has
been marketed, officials in the Nation
al Lumber Manufacturers association
declare that tests airenGy made of a
synthetic composition produced by
Minnesota lumber interests show 1t
possesses many qualities making 1t
available for structural purposes.
The experiments are based on some
~hat the came principle as that en-
ployed In the manufacture of paper
from wood pulp. In the process not
only the trunks and branches of young
trees, but the leaves and smaller parts
as well are ground up and mixed with
other substances, virtually eliminating
waste. The resulting compound Is ca
pable of being nodded into sizes and
shapes of almost any description need
ed in building.
Adds to Timber Resources.
Ofiicials of the Lumber Manufactur-
ers' association declare that If n prac-
tical method Of this sor. can be per-
fected the result may be to revolution
lie the entire lumber industry. Aside
from utilizing the present great waste
In converting trees into usable lum-
Der, they say. 1t presents a solution
10 the manufacturers problem of find
Ing sufficient material in the country's
rapidly diminishing timber resources.
From the time the standing tree Is
turned by the sawmiIl into planks and
boards and applied In construction
from 60 to 60 per cent has been wasted
IhiS includes stumps. chips, bark and
branches. plank and log trimmings and
a huge amount of sawdust. The new
method will use all of this.
Already $I5O,O00 has been spent in
experimental work in this direction by
the Weyerhaeuser lumber interests in
Minnesota. Their experiments nre
said to have been undertaken largely
because one of the chief obstacles en-
countered by lumber manufacturers is
the competition of paper manufacture
ers, who can use young trees insult
able for lumber purposes. This Is es-
peclally important in the lake states
where pulp mills so compete with saw
mills as to make it practically certain
that very little saw timber will be
grown commercially under present
conditions.
Fifty Years Between Crops.
Timber owners find that In from fif-
teen to twenty years they can grow
crops Of spruce that will be suitable
for the pulp and paper mills, whereas
It would take from fifty to one hundred
years to grow crop that would meet
the requirements of the lumberman.
According to the manufacturers as

cial lumber to have Il satisfactory ten

RECORD IN CROPS
Western Canada Farmers As
Sured of Bountiful Yields.
Of the Provinces Satisfactory in tho
Highest Degree-Pass Expectations

From as early as April IT, when
seeding became general throughout the
Western Canadian Provinces, was
there anything but optimism In the
feelings Of the farmers of that coun-
try. An uninterrupted chain Of favor
able conditions have bound the early
seeding data with the conditions Of
the crop today. There were no set
backs. There may have been a hail
storm or two with some Ill effects
through portions Of the country, but
the track they took was so small
that the percentage Of loss was al
most imperceptible compared with the
whole. Rains fell just when needed,
the sun shone as II regulated by the
farmer himself, the ground, generally,
was In perfect condition and fully re-
sponsive. 1t is now a question Of rival
~ between districts and provinces
which will produce the greatest re-
suits in crop yields and averages. Out
In Alberta. whether it be in the north
or in the south. that which gave as
surance, In a weli-prepared seed bed,
of an excellent crop Is passing e1pec-
tation, and experts say there will be
produced crop away greater than
ever before In the history Of the prov
ince. and Alberta has had some big
yields. Then. in Saskatchewan there
exist the same conditions. The ex-
treme north and extreme south will
vie with the east and west in the
story at harvest and threshing time.
Manitoba, while not boastful, COM
placently watches fields of wheat,
oats, rye and barley that promise to
set new record for that province.
The fact Is apparent that Western
Canada will have a crop yield in all
grains away ahead Of any year in the
history Of the country. This will be
pleasing news to the thousands in the
United States, who have friends and
relatives farming in that country. It
should not be forgotten that these
crops will be raised on land that in
many cases cost less than $40 an acre
and some Of 1t was procured by mere
ly homesteading. 1t is possible today
to secure improved farms at very low
figures, as well as raw or virgin
prairie. Any Canadian government
agent will gladly give Information as
to the condition of the crops, and
dates when special rates may be had
by those who wish to look over what
