suffer.
The Black sea, which In some parts
has a depth o f more than 0.500 feet,
Is polsoued by sulphureted hydrogen
wherever the water Is deeper than
1,200 feet. This accounts for the curi­
ous fact thnt there Is no organic life
below that depth, excepting perhaps
some bacteria of very low order. Im­
pregnated with sulphur.
The causes for this phenomenon are
explained by the quick outflow o f the
fresh water through the Bosporus,
while salt water coming from the
Mediterranean enters through a deeper
current Into the depths of the Black
sea. The waters on the surface are.
therefore, controlled absolutely by
horizontal currents o f considerable
force, and Tcrtlcal currents which
might carry the noxious gases from
, the bottom to the surface and fresh
oxygen from the surface to the bottom
are hardly ever noticeable.
The water at great depths is so satu­
rated with sulphuric gas by the dis­
integration o f organic matter sinking
to the bottom by reason o f its weight
that no fish or other living being which
needs oxygen for Its organic system
can exist l>eyoiid a stated depth.—Lon­
don Standard.

Forest Grove is not as near dead

Y e Gods and little fishes! P e r­
sonal liberty has gone to pot. A
young lady was arrested and
fined for wearing a slit skirt
in a California city the other day.
Oh scissors! what’s th’ use of
havin’ a vote, anyhow.
Owing to the fact that the
Press was somewhat shorthand
ed this week, the office devil
tried out his hand on the réper­
toriai staff, to which may be as­
cribed the added vigor or tone
imparted to any o f the various
departments o f this issue.
Every once in a while one o f
our lucal preachers preaches a
Bermon on the prodigal son. Un­
fortunately a good many people
here don’ t understand that it ap­
plies to them. They say, “ We
never went away and spent our
money in riotous livin g—not
w e .” But taking or sending it
away is not much different— It
is lost to them and this town.
The man who spends his money
away from home is a prodigal,
whether he goes away with it or
not. He also is a prodigal son.
Likewise, someone ought to fall
on his neck, also.
High prices for decidiou9 fruits
in eastern -markets and a bumper
yield in the Northwest have com­
bined to make prospects exceed­
ingly bright for farmers in Ore­
gon and Washington. Shipments
from California have brought
from $1500 to $2000 per car, with
an estimated yield o f 14,000 cars
to be shipped from the state.
