SWAMP LANDS
An enterprising citizen ( New Or-
leans bag obtained title to 1000009
acres of swamp lands In Louisiana
and In concert with the Illinois Cen-
tral and Southern Pacific railroads and
ome capitalists of Chicago It la pro-
posed to raise $1600000 to expend in
draining the swamp says Washington
Post The soil Is the richest In the
United States and equal to any In
the world It Is estimated that with
proper tillage It will produce over
three bales of cotton to the acre
whereas the average crop of that
staple Is less than one-halt bale to the
acre In fertility the soil of the swamp
lands near the Mississippi Is practical-
ly Inexhaustible and there are 7000-
000 acres of such lands In Louisiana
alone or more than 10000 square
miles Mississippi Arkansas Tennes-
see Kentucky Missouri Illinois Iowa
and the states farther north have im-
mense areas of swamp lands more fer-
tile than Goshen which are now prac-
tically worthless for lack of drainage
Upon the idea that prompted the act
levying a tax on oleomargarine our
government can do anything that Is
expedient It has been held that the
government can conserve waters In
the woolly west to irrigate the public
domain and subdue It to the husband-
man and It has been argued that It
should remove water from lands In the
Mississippi river bottoms to render
them fit ac fieri garden and orchard
hut nearly all the swamp lands of the
great valley are the property of Indi-
viduals and that fact may serve to
deter congress from the enterprise
In our exploitation of the west and
southwest the ‘'south’’ has been large-
ly neglected but It has not been for-
gotten and recuperation has now
started new development The south
Is coming Into its own again and is at-
tracting both wealth and energy from
other quarters while Its home produc-
tion has assumed In value enormous
proportions says Omaha Bee The la-
test feature in this development Is the
establishment of experimental farms
In many southern states for educa-
tional purposes along scientific lines
The south is ambitious and Is omit-
ting' no effort to secure the best and
most up-to-date methods and equip-
ment for the full utilizing of Its re-
sources The climate and the soil of
the south are suited to a marked de-
gree to the development of agricultural
pursuits Richer soil Is to be found in
but few places Timber abounds the
summer season Is long the rainfall Is
plentiful and everything that nature
can put at the disposal of a country to
make it agriculturally productive Is
there
J Some of the possibilities whenarial
navigation becomes common and gen-
eral are suggested by a retem per-
formance at — or above — the frontier
between the United States and Mexi-
co A man in a flying machine made
half a dozen or more trpa back and
forth between the two countries and
the customs officers of both nations
looked on and were powerless to inter-
fere with him The aviator made no
attempt at smuggling but had he been
so inclined be could have carried goods
subject to duty and defied the laws
Obviously there is likely to be some
sort of international understanding re-
garding the use of airships which pass
from one country to another
The cruise around the world of the
American battleship fleet had so many
valuable results that It Is not out of
order to have a repetition of the ex-
perience to a certain extent It Is
announced from Washington that the
Atlantic fleet will visit the Mediter-
ranean sea next fall The vessels will
go In division formation to give the
commanders officers and men the ad-
vantage of maneuvering in that shape
Among the ships will be some which
made the world tour and Europe will 1
have another opportunity to see what
a first-class American naval force looks
like The excellent Impression made
by the battleships Is likely to be deep-
ened The catch of 45uuo seals by the
steamer Florizel reported from St
Johns N F need cause no worry as
to the future of seal life The seals
taken In the North Atlantic ocean are
not the fur seal but an amphibious
animal that is plentiful In comparison
and In little danger of extermination
notwithstanding heavy annual on-
slaughts An Illinois mlnlstei has left the pul-
pit to become a baseball umpire It Is
s far cry from saving souls to calling
strikes but It la to be feared that the
latter cry la heard further In the land
A man In Texas has just received a
letter mailed to him 3& years ago

sistency of the malls

Claims to Have Found Black Roses
Has the long-sought flower been
found at last? It Is reported that
Dennis Tapple a hopeless cripple of
Saiannah who has eked out an ex-
istence by making key rings has been
In Washington seeking a patent fora
black rose that he has grown as the
result of 15 years’ experiments Tap-
pie says he has been offered $100000
for the secret on the day that it Is
protected by patent hut he is await-
ing further bids
Dishonest Business Practice
About 2000 Imported empty Camem-
bert cheese boxes bearing the names
of well konwn French cheeses were
imported at New York on one steam-
ship recently Duty bad to be paid on
the printed matter on their 2000
labels and another duty on the im-
ported boxes According to a New
York trade journal these boxes are
filled In 'New York state and sold as
coming from abroad
Sheep at Land Cleaners
In discussing the value of sheep on
a country place their services as
land cleaners should not be Ignored
They like pasture grasses 'but they
seem to ike weeds and bushes even
better for browse They will often
clean up an old field In a year or two
so that what was a tangle of un-
sightly weeds and shrubs wiii appear
a smooth-shaven lawn Angoras are
simply wonders at this sort of thing
but the common everyday sheep of
the ordinary breed will do mighty
good work If you confine her to her
Job and put In enough of her — Coun-

Enthusiasm Extraordinary
Many chlnamen were wrought up
to a high state of enthusiasm by the
provincial asemblies opened last De-
cember throughout the empire One
native schoolmaster was especially
fervent To express his feelings he
chopped off one of his fingers and
with the stump wrote out eight char-
acters showing his hearty approval
He brought this testimony to the de-
legates from his district In bidding
them farewell
How Far Can You See?
What Is the farthest limit to which
the human vision can reach? Power
in his book “The 'Eye and Sight”
gives the ability to see the star
Alcor situated at the tail of the Great
Bear as the test Indeed the Arabs
call It the Test star It Is most ex-
ceptionable with the naked eye
though one or two cases are recorded
the third satellite being the most dis-
tinct Preuvians are said to 'be the
longest sighted race on earth Hum-
boldt records a case where these In-
dians perceived a human figure 18
miles away being able to recognize
that It was humau and clad In white
This Is probably the record for far
sight
Strikingly Original
John TI 1 afters- new of Helena
Mont was star reporter on a Chi-
cago paper when the last national
encampment of the G A R was held
in that city says tho Saturday Even-
ing Post “Raftery" said the city
editor “I want you to do a column in-
troduction for the big parade story to
day It will be a corking parade but
do try to get away from the old
Bterotyped boyd-in-blue fast-thinning
ranks faded-battle-flags stuff Give
us something lively and new Get a
new angle on It and have your copy
In at six” Raftery went out He
took a long look at the parade He
saw that most of the veterans wore
new shoes and he came back and
wsote his column which began
“Heavens how their feet hurt!”
Move to Protect Seals
Steps have at last been taken by
the government of the Falkland Is-
lands to stop the Indiscriminate slau-
ghter of seals and pengulnson the Is-
lands of their dependencies Up to the
present the Beal rookries of the Falk-
lands have been at the mercy all the
year round of every foreign sealing
vessel that chose to Invade them and
the salughter that has been going on
for years In consequence has nearly
exterminated the seals Similarly
the killing of penguins usually for
the sake of the plumage and tho large
quantity of fat which each bird af-
fords has almost denuded the islands
of these Interesting specimens of
their fauna Two bills have now been
Introduced Into the legislative coun-
cil — one to regulate the seal fishery
In the Islands and the other to pro-
vide for the preservation of the pen-

EATS CHEAP LUNCH
Thirty Cents Enough to Pay
Says Young Rockefeller
Work the Chief Thing in Life De-
clares Oil King’s Son Who Gives
Some Don'ts That Prom-
ise 8uccess
New York— “Thirty cents Is all 1
ever spend lor luncheon It’s enough
for any man on a salary” -This
was not the declaration of a
bank clerk salesman or office man
It came from the Ups of John D Rock-
efeller Jr bead of the most stupen-
dous trust albeit a benevolent organ-
ization the world has ever known—
the Rockefeller Foundation
The head or the $600000000 charity
trust opened his heart before his de-
parture for a season to Boston where
his arrival was eagerly awaited by
North shore society
Young Mr Rockefeller added to his
confession regarding the cost of lunch-
eon a few more epigrams of his own
making among them the following
“I am more than a Baptist I am a
Christian
“Modern methods should be em-
ployed even at the expense of the few
"The chief thing in life is to do
something— to work
"The growth of a big business Is
merely the survival of the fittest
"Do the little everyday duties of life
without murmur Do them well
That Is success
“The most successful business men
can be should be and are the moBt
successful Christian men
"The man or corporation who has
not determined at the outset to do
good to others while doing good to
himself will fall In the end" -The
young man who will be at the
head of the huge Rockefeller Founda-
tion is not much given to gaiety and
Is regarded by people who have met
him as serious minded as his father
He Is very retiring Although the son
( of the man reputed to be the richest
man in the world he is known chiefly
to tbe public as the teacher of a Bible
class at the Fifth avenue Baptist
church
Here are some of Mr Rockefeller's
success don’ts
I Don’t sit back and wait for the door
to open
I Don’t spoil friendship by trying fo
borrow money
Don't be ashamed to do any work
Don't be afraid to make a lowly be-
ginning Don't marry a woman simply be-
cause she Is pretty
Don't marry a woman who Is not In
sympathy with your Ideas
Don’t drink The man who never
drinks Is not asked
Don’t go around to see the sights
merely to gather strength to resist
evil
I Don't drink Don’t Imagine you will
have the strength of will to know
when to turn back
j Don't shrink from criticism
Don't be a quitter
! Don’t be afraid to assert yourself
You must let men know that you are
not afraid to do things
Don't be discontented with life be-
cause you are not rich
Don’t worship the almighty dollar
Don't envy those who are rich
Don’t strive for wealth It Is char-
acter not money Influence or power
which makes a man
Don't go around wearing a sour face
Don't be a hypocrite Hypocrisy is
tbe meanest of characteristics
Don't be a human sponge
Don’t live above your Income The
man who lives within his means will
have little to be afraid of
Don't question the motives of thoge
who having sinned are trying to
show by their actions that they hare
turned over a new leaf
Don’t think that you can accumulate
a surplus of good deeds to offset sin
Her Marksmanship
Tbe militia boys were going away to
camp on the morrow and as Lieut
Wellington Grant Smith parted with
bis sweetheart on the piazza she said
“I shall stand here tomorrow as you
march past and throw a klsa at
you"
But her soldier lover said: "No
don't do that”
"Why not?” she asked
"Because” laughed he "ten to on
you’ll hit the captain” — Judge
Not Following
“Tbe lawyer I employed certainly
did gouge me about that real estate
transaction”
“But my dear sir It by no means
follows that because he bought It for
you In fee-simple that he did It for a
simple fee”

DIVA’S IDEA OF MARRIAGE
Cavallenl Won’t Wed Chanler In Italy
Wher Thera Is No Dlvore
Law
New York — From street musician
and flower girl to one of the world’s
greatest opera singers and possessor
of jewels valued at $500000 Is only
a small part of the Interesting career
of Mme Lina Cavalleral who If she
doesn’t change her mind will become
the wife of Robert WIntbrop Chanler
great grandson of the original John
Jacob Astor and heir to several of bis
millions
“There Is nothing exciting about
my enghgement” said the diva after
''VrJX
the announcement “My views on
marriage have been expressed al-
ready and I am living up to them
Mine 1b not a romance It has taken
me four months to make up my mind
to accept Mr Chanler
"You can bet I have not lost my
head I am not sentimentally In love
with him I like him and hope that
ours will be a happy union I believe
that love is unnecessary In marriage
“Although I am not marrying with
the idea of divorce I would not marry
in Italy where there is no divorce
law It Is comforting to feel that
there Is an open door I shall cer-
tainly continue singing Marriage Is
no reason wny I should sacrifice my
career for I love the opera stage
“I shall not see Mr Chanler again
until my return to New York In No-
vember when the wedding will take
place almost Immediately I am now
going to fulfil an engagement at the
opera house in St Petersburg and an-
other In Buenos Ayres”

Scriptural Misquotations
Answering a challenge as to the
most constantly misquoted line a cor-
respondent instances “He who runs
may reud" which sounds very Scrip-
tural but Is In reality a mangled ver-
sion of the verse In the prophet llab-
akuk: "Write the vision and make It
plain upon the table that he may run
that readeth It” Another Biblical
misquotation Is corcerned: "By the
ewent of thy brow shalt thou earn
thy bread” tha real text In Oonesls
being “In the sweat of thy face shalt
thou eat bread" And when we pour
‘oil on the troubled waters” thou-
sands search the Scriptures In vain
