For some time island planting as an Industry has been practiced In Florida, where Island homes are much sought The Increase In the price of land along the west coast led to thia unique business, which grew out of the opening up of the country by a railway Une constructed not so long ago. Counting npon the opportunity of sales which would arise when the promised Improvements along the new line were actually accomplished, when the Immense docks for the handling of hundreds of thousands of phos phate output at Boca Grande should materialize, an enterprising man planted from time to time Islands at the month of coral creek, not far from the bridge, two miles In length, which spans Gasparllla sound. The first experiment was with a mattress of twisted roots. This was 10 feet square with seeds of water growing plants, palmetto and live oak scattered over the sand and broken shell utilized as top covering. Ropes were tied to the four corners, with large stones as weights. Frequent In spection revealed that sand and silt from the mainland, with the extrane ous matter from the Gulf washed past the protecting piling of the long bridge, had materially aided the plan. The success of the first Island wat such that seven others were soon planted. Three of these are now more than fifty feet In diameter. Connec ting them Is a sandbar which prom ises to form the gronp Into a large and compact body of land. TARARE IS CITY OF MUSLINS Little French Village Which Wee Leal in the Mountaine Now Center I of Thriving Industry. Tarare, In east central France, la the city of mnsllns. It waa formerly a little Tillage lost In the Beaujolais mountains, but now It Is the center ol a thriving industry. For more than half a century It has conducted a world-wide trade In the finest mnsllns, the secret of making which originally camo from India; and as a result of that trade the village has become famous Each year. In honor of 81- raonet, the founder of the m ills the people celebrate the muslin festival, which calls forth the liveliest holiday spirit la all of the Inhabitants Last year the festival lasted three days during which the little city was truly a city of muslin. Everywhere houses balconies and facades all bat disappeared under the light aad color ful decorations which were always pretty and sometimes Ingenious Above the middle of the streets wer* suspended domes from which Ion» streamers of muslin ware draped In graceful curves to the seeond-floo» windows of the houses; reseda, cream, Ivory and rose predominate—gay and beautiful colors like garlands of flowers hanging from Immense corals Vehicles of all kinds wars adorned with fancy muslins and gave the scene a brilliancy snch as bright (low ers give to the festivals of southern C a lifo r n ia ._________________ Good Animals Recognized In the process of getting (good animate out of a poorer foundation selection of breeding mates plays so Important a part that the principles of stock judging w ill have a big place in the short course at O.

To know how flood a olflorotlo really can be moi** Â you must try a- the Ono of tho first truths to ho learned from the study of esthetics la that the nature of tho material, tba existing cause, of pleasure goes for very little In the composition of that pleasure. It la what wa bring, not what we re ceive, which makes us glad or sorry. An Instance of this great philosophical truth la within easy reach of every traveler. No one, not even the master ca terers of the great railway companies, whose new names are still as strange to us, would lay hand on heart and swear that In respect to quality the meals served In the luncheon cars of our long-distance trains were choice food. Considering the difficulties, they are surprisingly dished, and deftly served by the obliging waiters. But there is nearly always turbot, or cod-fishes that, when they take the train or stay In a hotel, become as un interesting, as reserved, as flatly re spectable as English travelers them selves. The choice between roast Joint hot and pressed beef or ham cold seems no choice at all, but a double compulsion, as of pistols or swords to a timid duelist. And the meal, unlike all other meals, be It luncheon or be It dinner, strikes ons as drawing slowly crescendo to a cli max of sweetish biscuits and gorgon zola cheese. Why Is there nearly al ways gorgonzola cheese In the train, and why does ons always eat and en joy It there, and rarely anywhere elseT—London Times. LODGE DIRECTORY QU“ K at 8:00 sharp in Kathryn L.

In Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina. the Brazilian states, and to a less ex tent In Chili, a peculiar kind of tea la largely used by the native population. It la obtained from the roasted and pulverized leaves of an evergreen for est tree, the Ilex Paraguayensls. The outer branches of the tree are cut off and passed rapidly through the flame* of a large fire, which wilts the leave* and tender stems, which are after ward dried and thoroughly smoked over a slow fire. Then they are ground to powder, and thus prepared for the making of tea. The beverage Is said to be more gently stimulating than either coffee or ordinary tea, but II has a smoky flavor, disagreeable to the unaccustomed palate.—Detroit News. Pretty Poor Nourishment An old negro from the back country, who was unused to modern methods In medicine, was sent to a hospital In Charleston. O db of the nurses put a thermometer into his mouth to take his temperature. Presently when one of the doctors made his rounds he asked: "Well, Nathan, how do you feel?" “I feel right tol'We, boes." “Have yon bad any nourishment?” “Yasslr.” “What did yon have?" The patient grinned. “A lady done gimme a piece of glass to suck, boss.’ —Everybody's Magazine. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATIO N Department of the Interior, U. 8. Land Office a t La Grande.
