The Dragon Tree.
The dragon tree of Tcnorifo Is per
haps tbe strangest vegetable In the
world. It is thought to be a kind of
giant asparagus, whose dead branches
Fcrve as a support for the crowns.
New roots as they come into being
encircle and conceal the original stem,
which Is far nwny Inside, nnd the
! roots which become detached from the
' stem may be scon hanging withered In
tho upper tree. The trunk Is generally
i bolliiw, and In tho case of nn old tree
i which was destroyed ln 1S6T there
' was a spacious chamber which bad
served the natives as a temple for gen
! erations. The tree was forty-eight
: feet around nnd ninety-five feet high
! and Is supposed to have been 'origl-
nally watered with dragon's blood,
: which is tlie name now given to the
sap. This is a regular article of coni-
nieri'.

of the rat as a destructive force. "But

filled not only those places where tbey

all parts of the country, insomuch that
there was no land bnt it wVs pestered

taken wltb ruts in their bellies wblcb

The Traveler's Joy,
The cream of tartar tree, which Is
also called the "sour gourd," grows In
northern Australia and has a trunk
which measures from seventy to
eighty-five feet In circumference, but
which is only twenty or thirty feet
high. The wood Is soft and Juicy and
when steeped In water provides the
thirsty traveler with a refreshing and
cooling drink. The fruit is about six
Inches long, shaped like a lemon and
contains a gently acid pulp, which
tastes like cream of tartar. Wherever
it Is to be found a small encampment
of weary wayfarers unfurl their tents.
When sighted in tbe bnsb the famous
tree Is always greeted with a song
written by the early bushrangers
called "Sing Iley Por the Traveler's
Joy." Xew York Telegram,
