In the Australian exhibit at the Panamaâ€"Pacific Fair is a collection of hard woods of special interest. There are specimens of woods of exâ€" quisite grain and color, grown in commercial quantities, of which little is known in this country, and which will supply new material to cabinetmakers and others. Something entirely new to this part of the world is the Victorian myrtle. In grain it is said to be even more susceptible of polish than mahogany or the Hawaiian koa, and its color varies from the lightâ€" est of maple tints to the deepest redwood hues. At first view it imâ€" presses one as onyXx or petrified wood, so compact is it. A comâ€" plete dining rcom suite made of this wood has been commented upon as one of the most striking exhibits at the exposition. Another unusual timber product is the Queens‘and maple, resemâ€" bling the Canadian maple in grain and polish, but carrying out the birdseye effect in tones ;:?'gestive of Italian wainut. Rosewood, which has become a rare commodity, has been made into a number of attracâ€" tive pieces of furniture, and desâ€" criptive literature tells the taie that it grows in Australia in suffiâ€" cient quantity to permit of exporâ€" tation. Blackwood, eucalyptus, red cedar and the kauri pine are all timber products which interior decorators and furnishers will welcome as an answer to the problem of supply which threatens to puzzle them.

They had _ their origin as ‘"sports‘ from Barred Plymouth Rocks about 23 years ago, when they were produced as grays, but developed by breeding into a white variety. The females are exceptionally good‘layers of large, brown eggs, and the chicks are rugged and actâ€" ive, making excellent fowls for broilers and heavyâ€"breasted roastâ€" ing chickens. They weigh from 8 to 10 pounds for males and 6 to 8 pounds for females. They are more highly developed in shape, finish and color than other members of the Plymouth Rock family. â€" Their plumage is beautifully white and their beaks and shanks a rich orange yellow in color. 2 Size and type have almost made them leaders for market poultry. In thisrespect they are only rivalâ€" ed by the White Wyandottes, and, to ‘be exact, the Rhode Island Reds have gained on them conâ€" siderably during the last few years These are the three most widely bred and every one is a profit payâ€" er. It is a record of fact that every soâ€"called breed is a fowl that has had, as a reason for its construcâ€" tion, its general, allâ€"round utility nad, as a reason tion, its general, value. The characteristics of the White Plymouth Rock should be the same as those demanded for all other varieties of the breed. In color they should be pure white, the sur face color, the quills and the under color absolutely white. Their eyes red ; legs, feet and beak rich goldâ€" en yellow. In this, as in all other cleanâ€"legged varieties, the shanks and feet should be smooth and free from any feathers or down, either on the shanks or between the toos. Prepare for Dear Eggs. If the farmer wishes to benefit by the high prices that eggs are cerâ€" tain to bring next fall and winter, he should begin to get ready for them at once. The way to have eggs late in the year is to hatch pullets early. It is the early hatches from which the early pulâ€" lets are derived that are the largâ€" est money makers for the poultry producer. The early hatched pulâ€" lets, if properly grown, should beâ€" gin to lay in the fall at the time when eggs are scarce and high in price. _ Pullets must be well matured be fore they will lay many eggs. _ _ Pullets that start to lay in the fall before cold weather sets in will, as a rule, lay all winter. _ f Yeariing and 2â€"yearâ€"old hens do not lay many eggs in the fall, as they are molting at that time, and the feed they consume goes not only to keep up the energy and life of the birds but also to put on or grow a new coat of feathers. In properly matured pullets ali surplus energy beyond that needed to meet the requirements of the body is available for the producâ€" tion of eggs. When using an incubator, keep it at a temperature of 102 to 103 degrees. 3 Cool and turn the eggs every day Take about five minutes for the job Do this for the first eighteen days and keep moisture in the incubator for the same length of time, and if the egg shells get too hard and dry after this, moisten them to make them soft. After the eighteenth day, keep a careful eye upon the temperature. Warmth generated by ithe hatching egg; has got to be allowed for. _ _Use only sound, strongly fertilizâ€" ed eggs to begin with. Have them of uniform size.~ As vessels are few and freight rates high, the sailing ship has reâ€" appeared in the ocean trade. Can such a ship profitably use the Panâ€" ama Canal? Twenty years ago, when the relative merits of the Panama and the Nicaragua routes were being sharply discussed, one of the stock argum>nts against the Panama route was that, on account of the prevailing ca‘lms on the Paciâ€" fic side, it would be disadvantagâ€" eous for sailing shifls. The Canal Record now says that in spite of{ the calms sailing vessels will find using the canal cheaper than going‘ round Cape Horn. Even figuring in the calms, a sailing vessel can go from New York to San Francisco in 60 days, including one day in the canal, through which it would be hauled by a canmal tug. It can reâ€" tburn in the winter in 57 days, and in the summer in 62. It would take \t.he same ship i490 days to go from New York to San Francisco round ‘Ca.pe Horn, and from i10 to 115 days to return. To run a vessel of 2,000 tons‘ net at sea costs 875 a day ; the canal toll on such a vesse! would: be about $2,700. If using the canal shortened the voyage from New York to San Francisco by 36 days, the saving in expense would pay the tolls; but as a matâ€" ter of fact, the vessel would shorten its voyage on the average by 80 days. % White Plymouth Rocks.

Peter the selfâ€"confident was unable to endure the white hant of the Presence: *"Depart heat of the Presence: ""Depi from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord."

It was the same new : reddened the cheeks of It was the same new shame that reddened the cheeks of Christian converts as the gospel sped on its way and caused them to emergo from the loud indecencies of pagan life into a life of holy modesty.

Natives of Brazilian Forests Are Experts. Bince so many nations have aciâ€" ually gone to fighting there are few good sportsmen ‘left. If you want to find a thoroughbred sportsman you must look among the natives of the Brazilian forests. Especialâ€" ly among the Botocudo, to whom tracking game is the chief busisg~~s of life,. He does it with such <+ki‘! that he fills the white man with awe and wonder. However enthusiastic a huntsman you are you. will feel yourseld a poor sportsman after watching him for a little while. The Botocudo hunter . glides stealthily through the forest. He understands every sign and habit of bird and beast. He knows how high up an armadil lo displaces the leaves of the tree in passing. He can distinguish the tracks of the snake and the torâ€" toise. He can follow the tortoise to its burrow by the scratches â€"f its scaly armor on the mud. His sense of smell is so keen it helps him a great deal in hunting. Hidden behind the trunk of a tree he can imitate the cries of birds and beasts to bring them within range of his deadly poisoned arrow. He can even entice the alligator by making her rough eggs grate together where they lie under leaves on the river bank. If he shoots at an ape and the animal does not fall n« will climb up after the animal by a hanging creeper where no whi:e man would climb. However dark the forest is he is indifferent to this darkness. Laden with his ba« of game he finds his way back to his hut by the sun and the lay of the i ground. His only rival is the Australian native. He will lie in wait behind a screen of boughs. He waits un til the kangaroo comes to drink or he will track him for days in the open. He will camp by his fire :o be ready for his pursuit at early dawn. He keeps unseen to leeâ€" ward. When a number hunt together they will put up a brush fence in two long wings, converging toward a pit, and so they drive the kanâ€" garoos into it. They also form great hunting gartiel for a battue surrounding half a mile of bushâ€" land, and with shouts and clatter they drive all the game to the cenâ€" tre, where they can close round and dispatch them with spears and waddics. In fowling they show the same adroitness. A native will swim under water, breathing through a reed. He merely covers his head with water weed till he gets among a flock of ducks, whick one by one he pulls under and tucks into his belt. They rarely need to make use of dogs in huntâ€" ing, though they had learned thi: way oi hunting long before the white man knew anything about it. They used the xu:_qo or native dog.
