 Out of this fund the widow of former King Charles is assured an allowance of s60,000 a year, which. with the income she derives from her private properties in Hungary, nets her about s100,000 year.
 Hungary as state is forbidden to pay any government funds to the former Queen. Hence, the wealthier members of the old Hungarian mo- bility, like Count Apponyi and Count Andrassy, have helped her out of their own funds.

PORTO RICO HAS
 VALUABLE SWAMPS
Land Rich for Sugar Cane
 Is Covered

New York, Aug. 13 R--Sugar cane worth millions of dollars could be produced on swamp land now lying below sea level in Porto Rico. This swamp of 10000 acres was discov- cred by Dr. H. A. Gleason, curator of the New York Botanical garden, who recently completed an ecolog- ical survey Of the island.
 Dr. Gleason said that this po- tential wealth would need a sys- rem similar to Hollands dikes for drainage and pointed out that in this and other now useless areas the drainage might be carried out with windmills because of the constant winds.
 Once Was Dry Land
 Dr. Gleason's geological survey conducted in cooperation with the insular government, constituted the first complete study of the plant lire and possibilities of Porto RICO.
 He also believes that this sunk en land once sloped down 10 the ocean.
 "At some prehistoric time" he as- serted. 'lt was dry land sloplhg down to the north shore. Along that north shore a great ridge Of sand was piled up by the wind and In the course of time gradually consohoat- cd into rock.
 'Then the land began to sink, the ridqe of rock was brought down 10 the level of the ocean, ana the waves pounding away at 1t Tor thou- sands of years finally broke the paps in the rock and let the ocean through"
 Plant Life Differs
 Great differences In the plant il1e o, tbe north and south sides Of the island were discovered, although lhe island is not more than fifty miles v;de at any place. This was ascribed to the variation in rainfall. which averages sixty to eighty inches an nually on the north and only nan that much south.
 While the swamp is prevaien' along the north shore, the sou.i shore was found. similar 10 tne deserts of Arizona and Mexico scrubby thickets, cactus and cefi' tury plants were found along the south shore. among them being cac' ii which climb trees
 The Palo de Polio, or wood ol Chicken" also received it's firs' scientific notice. Shooting out large buttress roots the trunks at the base often attain circumference or hundred feet from which rises trunk about a foot in diameter and fifty or sixty feet high.

changed interest rates and the pur-
chasing power Of money.
Bonds are the obligations of cor
porations and governments to pay the
owner a specific amount Of money on
a certain date and, when secured by
an adequate earning or taxing power,
they comply with the most exacting
investment principles. The recent
general improvement in the earning
power of corporations and the taxing
power of governments suggests that
the world is entering a period Of nor
NAL economic growth.
Some there may be who, if all goes
well, can make larger profits through
employing their capital in speculative
enterprises than through adherence tx
investment principles. But the greater
market stability of good and properly
diversified bonds strongly recon-
mends the established rules of in
vestment for those who require safe

235 pupils, 81 seconds; Hawthorne,
24O pupils, 80 seconds; Roman Cath

schools record was the poorest, the
alarm having caught the teaching
staff off guard. Chief Matthews ex-
pressed himself as well satisfied with
the showing made, his only criticism
being that at some of the schools
eagerness to cut down the time of
evacuation resulted in hurrying and
some disorder.
