Orchids Guide Iron
Prospectors in Brazil

Prospectors for. iron ore in Brazil
and Venezuela are guided to such
deposits by the presence above
ground of certain type Of rare
and beautiful orchid blooms. Also in
Venezuela, iron is invariably indi-
2cated by the presence Of little
tree called the ''copey."
Cuba is another region where dis
tinctive vegetation definitely in
dictates a soil condition associated
with deposits of iron ore. On that
island ore deposits support heavy
growth of pine. and because of that
fact Columbus is said to have dis
covered iron on his first voyage to
the New World. A broken mast on
one of his ships necessitated putting
in to the north shore of the island,
and beneath the pine tree cut down
for the mast, ore was found.
In the southeastern part Of the
United States iron ore deposits
are commonly overgrown with &C.

THE HORSE

1.-THE time has COME" said Morton
Morse,
ITO talk of merits Of the horse.
Since now the autocar has gone,
To join the ancient mastodon;
IT'S well that you refresh your mind
With all the virtues of his kind.
It's well that you recall, aglow i. .
His services of long ago.
How you quite unrestrained could
spoon
Beneath the mellow harvest moon,
While he walked on in placid way,
With only thoughts of fresh cut hay.
IT'S time to mind the evenings when
You came home later much than ten,
Wrapped in ecstatic reverie.
without much thought where you
might be.
He did not cast You in the ditch,
But took you home without hitch.
He kept in state of self-repair,
When service stations were thin air.
He'd work and travel all the day.
On modicum of oats and hay.
With him there were few accidents,
For he had brains and equine sense.
So, since the modern Frankenstein
Is out of favor and of line,
1 introduce this old-time friend,
And him I'LL highly recommend"
