Instead of the one white man carrying an um- brella made of goatskin and herds of wild goats, which were once the sole Inhabitants of this volcanic Isle, Juan Fernandez has now 298 Inhabitants, according to the report of the Chilean Government, who have made the Is- land one of the moat fertile and most fruitful spots in the world. The Island is a little more than twelve miles long and amost four miles wide, situated about 300 miles- west of Valparaiso. Despite its prox- imity to the mainland, however, Juan Fernandez differs remarkably In its flora and fauna from near-by Chile. The flora Is particularly notable for a very large number of different spe- cies. A recent visit to the Island by ( biologists has convinced many scien- lists that the geologic history of the ( isle is as remarkable as its romantic j background. Juan Fernandez, discovered by the adventurer whose name it bears In 1571, was the lonely home of Alex- ander Selkirk, a Scottish buccaneer, who lived on the island In solitude for the four years from 1704 to 1708. | The story of Selkirk's unique adven- ture Inspired Daniel Defoe to write "Robinson Crusoe," the ehildhood friend of multitudes. Defoe's book had another effect be- sides providing childhood with a de- lightful story of romance and adven- ure. It served to focus attention on the isolation of that part of tie world where Juan Fernandez was located | and privateers, quick to take advant-j age of this fact, made the island their base for operations for many years. | Several pirate ships were fitted out at the Island to become the scourge of hipping In the South. Pacific. Of the more famous pirates Sharp, having crossed the Isthmus of Darien and taken Santa Maria, rigged out a prize vessel at Juan Fernandez and then raided up and down the Chilean coast, making Robinson Crusoe's island his headquarters. The activities of Sharp indicated to the Chilean Government that it was time to stop the use of Juan Fernandez as the haunts of pirates. Under the auspices of the government a small | permanent settlement was established | on the island. The Chileans have also | used Juan Fernandez occasionally as a penal settlement. In 1S10 the pro- 1 clamation of the independence of Chile filled its caves with the most ardent of the patriots. Tine island, therefore, has been the refuge of all tyt>es of men since the day when Selkirk was rescued from his exile by a passing vessel. The present colony has grown from the small settlement established by the Chilean Government. Life is easy on Juan Fernandez. The sea is alive with fish waiting to be caught for the dropping of a line. It is said that a fisherman can drop a line with three hooks and bring up tihree fish almost regularly. So plentiful Is the fish sup- ply that it has been reported that one may obtain a good supply without even fishing equipment, by merely sticking one's hand into the water and catching the fish as they swim by.

Care of Flowers After Cutting Should Be Taken From Gar- den Only in Morning or .in the Early Evening These are the months that many cut flowers are obtained from the garden. A few precautions will prolong the blooming period of these and also lengthen the time the blooms will be beautiful in the home.

The fruits come from fruit trees which were planted by pirates nearly two centuries ago. For the benefit of tourists from all parts of the world eager to see where "Robinson Crusoe" lived, the Chilean Government has built a small hotel on Juan Fernandez.

This is a devitalizing process which will soon decrease the blooming and shorten the period of usefulness. If It la desired to leave blooms on the plants in the garden these should be removed after they have wilted. This will encourage the development of new flowers for a longer period. Flowers should be cut In the early morning, If possible, or In the evening. Do not cut them during the middle of the day. as they are not then filled with water and T.ill wilt more quickly.

The loss of two of his Eskimo companions and all of his dogs were part of the gruelling experi- ence of a private trader, Captain Her bert Hall, in the Canadian northlands last winter, according to Captain Alex ander, of Hudson Bay. Hall, Alexander said, had two trad- ing posts, one at Dana Bay and the other at Sugluk. He left the latter post on February 23 with two Eski- mos and a dog team for Cochrane, Ont. With only half the distance covered, some of the dogs died of distemper, while the rest disappeared, apparent- ly joining a wolf pack which had fol- lowed the party for a number of days. Captain Hall then decided to return and started for Sugluk with all the provisions he and the natives could carry. The Eskimos succumbed to the privations of the trip, but Hall reached his destination on April 11. The fact that his weight was reduced from 245 pounds to 135 indicates the hardships endured by the courageous trader on his 600-mile trek. vases remove all the leaves that would be Immersed in the water and place owners must accept the responsibil- ity.
