There are many hop yards In Folk
county and a great many pickers will
be required. Home of the hop growers
are getting uneasy bIkiuI the prospect
of pickers and are thinking of contract
us with Chinamen to pIcK the crop.
The people In Polk county need the
money and should got It, aud tt will 1st
their own fault If pickers are Imported.
Over across the river, nppnalta Inde
pendence, are two hop yards where
iilone st least, $7500 will tat paid out for
picking hops. The Dove Urns, will tay
out at least f.1000. J. II. IlurUin fKJ0,
and so on. We hope every person who
la thinking of picking liopa will leave

they need fear no scarcity of pickers.
They prefer white pickers, aud will not
contract fol pickers unless they feel
doubts shout getting tlicui. This Is au
Important mutter for our people,. and
these several thousand dollure should
not lie allowed to go out of t tie county,
Hoinl i r leave word at tliisofllce If you
"even think of picking hops. It Is a
healthy occupation and from one to
three dollars a day can lie earned. Fif
ty cents a lux will be paid 11ml no pre
vious experience la necessary In pick
lug hops, The most money is earned
by commencing early In tlio morning
and not picking in t he middle of the
day, and then continuing until Into In

If you know 'of any of your friends

Tlie BUckoon Indian positively uh
sort that within tlio hint flvo years
they have frequently seen tumnais
which from the doaciiptions given
must bo niaatiMloiiH. While out hunt
ing one of these Indiana came across
a sorlea of large traH, each tlie ilia)
of the bottom of a salt barrel, sunk
deon in the moss. He followed the
curious trail for some miles, flmdly
coining out in full view of his gome.
As a chow, thette Indians are uie ora v
vat of hunters, but the proportions of
this new sitocieu of game tilled Uie
hunter with tmor, aud he took to
swift and immediate flight. He de
scribed the creature as being s large
as a poat trader's store, with great,
shining, yellowish white tusks and a
mouth, largo enough to swallow a
man at a alngle gulp. He further
says that tlio auimal was undoubted
ly of tho sanio iqieeies as those whose
hones 11ml tusks lie all over that sec
tion of tbo country.
Tho fact that other hunters have
told of seeing these monsters brows
ing on the herbs up along the river
gives a certain probability to tho
story. Over on the Forty Mile creek
hones of mastodons are quite plenti
ful. One ivory tutdc 0 feet long pro
jects from one of the sand flnnes on
that creek, and single teeth have
boon found that were so large that
they would bo ft good load for one
man to carry. I boliove that the mule
footed hog still exists; uIho that live
mastodons play tug with the aurora

While rjaswwr the head offlcta of
the telegraph department, St. Mar
tin's-lo-Oriuid. a day or two ago I ob
served large masaos of concrete do-
bris latiug CAnfully uulwuiod and
carried in. Feeling sure that the
neighborhood was unfavorable ror
the establishment of a rockery or a
garden grotto, I made inquiries and
was informed that the dobris was a
portion of tho Plymouth breokwiEtor
which had almost been eaten up by
the teredo. The teredo is a small but
offensive submarine worm which
annually causes many thousands
of pounds' worth of damage to
ocean telegraph cables. Two years
ago it was unknown in English
wators,imt now it is common enougu.
It will eat its way into any thins ex
cept brass, which is the only thing
that will stop it. The telephone cable
between Belfast and Glasgow is the
first that has been hud in home
waters with a brass sheathing to pro
tect it against this ubiquitous post-

A change in flagmen was recently
made at the Rocky Hollow rade
crossing in East Greenwich aud a
new man put on duty. He wanted
to replonish his stock of oil for use
in his signal lanterns the other day
and sent his order to the railroad au
thorities in Providence. The pra ties
who received tho order were some
what amusod at its contents, but
thought that tho new crossing tender
ought not to be deprived of his Btock
of blissful ignorance, tio they sent tlie
required oil in three vessels as indi
cated in tho order, marked respective
ly "white oil," "red oil" and, "green
oil." Providence Journal,
