Bed Of Fossil Plants
Found in Ceta Canyon
By College Professor

CANYON, Tex, July 11.-(Pl-W.
d. Natter, member of the faculty
Of the West Texas State Teachers
College, who is studying the Ceta
Canyons near here. has discovered
a bed Of fossil plants in an ancient
jaw bone.
The fossil bed is located in the
South Ceta Canyons. The plants
were found in shape, somewhat like
a baseball, but had fluted sides with
grooves running the length of the
plant. They also resemble some Of
the modern cactus plants, but grew
in swamps instead Of on dry land.
1t is apparent that they grew in the
ancient swamp, although they were
found 500 feet above the level of the
plain in a silt pocket.
Another specimen of interest is
the 10-inch jawbone of a horse
found neal the bed Of fossil plants.
In this same place there are nu-
merous other varieties Of bones and
plants that Mr.. Natter expects to
identify soon.

PALM BEACH, Fla. July II, [)-
Florida planters, whose pineapple
crop once formed the leading agri-
cultural industry Of Palm Beach
county, are trying hard to restore
production to its former Importance
The crop, which exceeded 1000
900 crates in 1910 for the east coast
belt, has diminished until the pro-
duction in the county will not ex-
coed 5000 crates, according to an
estimate by M. u. Mounts, county
agricultural agent.
The decrease has been due large
ly to wearing out Of old lands, ex-
cessive cost of planting on new
lands, and competition by the Gu
ban industry.
AS a practical method of restor-
ing abandoned fields, the United
States department Of agriculture
recommends that Natal grass be
soWn and allowed to grow on the
impoverished soil two years or long
er.
The grass, besides adding the es-
sential humus to the soil. starves
out the nenatodes-tone, wormlike
parasites, which cause a devastating
wilt.
Agricultural experts of the de-
partment also point out the neces-
sity of planting only healthy slips.

Second Old Rip
Found Embedded In
Block of Sandstone

COLORADO, Tex, July 11.-(P-
A second Rip Van Wrinkle toad has
been found.
The famous horned toad which
allegedly slept 81 years in the
courthouse corner at Eastland
probably had a short nap compared
to a toad found here imbedded in
a sandstone nine feet in the
ground.
The toad was a common hop
toad, full grown. 1t gas discovered
by c.. B. Bassham, who was dig
ging a septic tank where he is con-
structing a tourist camp in the
eastern limits of Colorado on the
Bankhead highway.
The workmen had dug through
sand and clay to a depth of nine
feet when they struck sand rock.
In breaking this rock, the toad was
found in a solid block. A round
cavity about two inches across, n
closed it.
The toad hoped off slowly when
the rock was broken. Long claws
on its feet indicated it had been
inactive for a long period. It's
front legs appeared a little deform-
ed and its eyes bulged out when
the light struck them. Its skin was
pale.

ed from a tour of the state COM
plains that amateur and sem1-pro
ball is in the same slump that has

The charge is made that Simon
Pures have lost respect for their

can't afford to pay the salaries de-
manded In addition to buying ex-
pensive equipment simply for the
