Boy's Camp One of the leading features of the boy's department work of the Orange County Young Men's Christian association has come to be the annual camp at Huntington Beach. Each year thousands of boys through bible study and fellowship with christian men in camp are laying foundations for strong, clean lives. The Orange county committee, after a careful study of the situation, have decided to hold the first annual camp at Huntington Beach on August 15th to 27th. As there has not been time to organize the work in the different towns the members of the county committee will recommend boys from the Sunday schools of the county. Boys between twelve and sixteen years of age may make application to any of the following men: Alfred Higgins, Orange; George M. Ross, Anaheim; Wm. Starbuck, Fullerton; C. M. Mellick, Garden Grove, H. R. Case, Westminster; A. L. Whitesides, Talbert; John Crawford, Buena Park, or the county secretary, S. W. Douglas, Garden Grove. The number of boys will be limited to thirty-five and the applications be considered in the order they are received, so if you want your boy to go apply early. S. W. Douglas, who has conducted about twenty camps without accident, will have charge.

A pamphlet giving the rules and regulations of the camp, with other information, is being prepared and can be secured from any member of the committee in a few days. About Snake Bites As it is the season for wild country rambles, snake bites are interesting subjects, and it is interesting to know that something else than the traditional whiskey bottle is good for them. Consul-General William H. Michael of Calcutta reports concerning the annual deaths from snake bites in India, and the official efforts being made to reduce this mortality. The publication of my previous report, concerning an instrument called by the inventor "snake-bite lancet," caused considerable interest in various quarters, not only in the United States, but in other countries, as I had a request from an official in Turkey to put him in communication with somebody in India who would furnish him with a lancet. Snake bites occur frequently in India, and they are generally inflicted by venomous snakes like the cobra. Last year there were reported 21,797 deaths from snake bites, and it is believed by well-informed persons that the deaths reported from this cause fall 50 per cent below the actual number. The against the various counties of California are now invoiced suit brought by the company Jersey corporation, against in the United States for the northern district Times. The title of the Dustless Roadbed company et al., and the case is set San Francisco October Ist. This company claims p cover the oiling of county roads and over two years suit against the city of Renominal sum to establish rights. All the counties of the state realized that if won this suit against Redl recover big damages from city and municipality in the had oiled roads. A committee was formed the allied counties and the county of Los Angeles several thousand dollars to fight. The district attach charge of the fight and back east and over 2000 w examined. The suit was fought out Wellborn in the United S court and the allied con The company appealed the United State Supreme decision is still pending.

Last year there were reported 21,797 deaths from snake bites, and it is believed by well-informed persons that the deaths reported from this cause fall 50 per cent below the actual number. The official report covering 30 years averages about the number of deaths from snake poisoning annually as that reported for 1906. The report says that "the returns are probably not very accurate." Rewards are offered in most provinces in India for the destruction of snakes, but experience has shown that this measure does not have any appreciable effect on the mortality from snake bites, and the total amounts so paid are small. The medical officers employed at the research laboratories in India are engaged in investigating and testing the antivenomous sera and other curative agents which have been suggested, and a system of treatment of affected persons by permanganate of potash, suggested by Sir Lauder Brunton, it being tried in some provinces. The use of permanganate of potash is that employed in connection with the lancet. A sufficient quantity of the crystals for several treatments is carried in the handle of the instrument and is always on hand in ease of a bite, and the person bitten is prepared on the instant to cut open before the forests of Lebanon destroyed Palestine suppressed ten million people. Trains have long been de-bidding slopes, barren areas, their weird forms sharply defined and desolate valleys. Hundred thousand people live in the region, and most of them wretched, hopeless poverty. Syria, once maintaining of prosperous towns and ooch having a population of ion—is at present the scene able ruin. The destructive forests, begun 2650 B.C., the disappearance of her decay of her industries, have produced this effect once capital of the world: Nineveh and Carthage, one of mighty civilizations, and equipped by generous manent life, are desolate while destroyed the forests, and once flowed with milk and transformed into deserts. There are parts of Northern Africa, of Great of Alpine Europe, where causes set in action brought the face of earthion almost as complete as moon; and though, within space of time men call the period," they are known covered with luxuriant pastures, and fertile meadows now too far deteriorated claimable by man; nor can again fitted for human through great geological other mysterious influence of which we have no pr It affected and to introduce a required amount of potash. Shortest and Longest Days In summer and winter solstice on the 20th, 21st or 22nd of March and December, respectively. The date of the sun's greatest motion north or south, and is rarely supposed to represent the shortest days of the year. Actually, however, the length of day varies slightly with latitude and other causes, popularly referred to in the almanacs as "sun over "sun fast." The latitude of Sacramento, 39 miles north, the longest day is 14 hours and 55 minutes, and is the time from June 16 to June 26 in 1874. The shortest day is 9 hours and 55 minutes, and occurs on December 14. In these computations seconds have been discarded minutes only considered. Press Roadbed Co. Brings Suit This threatens to become a compli- which will add to the tangle in the alleged patents claimed by Westless Roadbed company as the various counties and cities California are now involved, is the sought by the company, a New corporation, against a defend- the United States Circuit court in northern district, says the title of the suit is the Roadbed company vs. Cotton and the case is set for trial in Francisco October 1st. Company claims patents which the oiling of county and city edge, or over which we have no prospective control. The destructive changes occasioned by the agency of man upon the flanks of the Alps, the Apennines, the Pyrenees, and other mountain ranges in central and southern Europe, and the progress of physical deterioration, have become so rapid that, in some localities, a single generation has witnessed the beginning and the end of the melancholy revolution. It is certain that a desolation like that which has overwhelmed many once beautiful and fertile regions of Europe awaits an important part of the territory of the United States, unless prompt measures are taken to check the action of destructive causes already in operation.—G. P. Marsh in "Man and Nature." Under the Sea-level When Southern Pacific engineers stepped into the 1000-foot breach through which the Colorado river was overflowing the Salton Sink, they saved perhaps the most fertile territory on the earth's surface—not forgetting the valley of the Nile. The great battle fought there by the engineers made the Salton Sink country known the world over. But before this it had been discovered that in the Imperial valley—the southern part of the Salton Sink—a crop of alfalfa could be raised every six weeks; that here in the powdery black loam was an open-air "hothouse" where phenomenal crops of almost every kind would grow. At Coachella they erected an icing plant, where cantaloupes above 100 degrees when picked are cooled down to 40 degrees before they are packed in refrigerator cars for shipment. During the transfer from icing plant to car the various counties and cities California are now involved, is the sought by the company, a New York corporation, against a defender the United States Circuit court in northern district, says the judge. The title of the suit is the Roadbed company vs. Cotton and the case is set for trial in Francisco October 1st. The company claims patents which were realized that if the company suits against Redlands it could big damages from every county municipality in the state which owned roads. Committee was formed representing allied counties and cities and county of Los Angeles contributed thousands dollars to help in the fight. The district attorney took over the fight and made a trip last and over 2000 witnesses were needed. Suit was fought out before Judge Burn in the United States Circuit and the allied committee won. Company appealed the case to the State Supreme court and the case is still pending. While the company has instituted proceedings along the same line as the northern defendants which open the question. They have evidence at hand for the defense to fight the case and a verdict of the plaintiffs would so commit the issues that it might be before the case is untangled. This should be the case it is entireable that all counties and cities ought to possess oiled roads would up by injunctions or demands would make oiled roads impossibly long time to come.

At Coachella they erected an icing plant, where cantaloupes above 100 degrees when picked are cooled down to 40 degrees before they are packed in refrigerator cars for shipment. During the transfer from icing plant to car the melons must be carefully protected from exposure to warm air. Last year the Imperial and Coachella valleys shipped 600 carloads of canteloupes; this year this crop will call for 1000 cars. Not content with their record for other fruits, the growers of this section are now raising table grapes, and it is predicted that within a few years they can supply the country with grapes rivaling the finest hothouse products. This will mean another large addition to the 30,000 cars of oranges, lemons and grape fruit, the 7000 cars of cherries and other deciduous fruit that California now sends to market. For fruit and vegetable transportation alone the Southern Pacific is having built 6600 of the largest and most expensive refrigerator cars ever turned out. These cars are now coming from the shops at the rate of twenty-five a day. No shippers make such exacting demands as do the fruit growers upon the railroads. Their crop must not only be moved quickly, but it must be kept at a uniformly low temperature in transit, even though the thermometer may register 120 degrees. For this reason refrigerator-car operation has developed into a science in which the Southern Pacific railroad has kept the lead.—Rural World. The first man to introduce canning into the United States was an Englishman named Thomas Kensett, who learned the business in the old country from Peter Durant, who in 1810 obtained a patent for putting up food in hermetically sealed vessels of glass, pottery or tin. In 1825 Kensett established a factory in Maryland, where fruits, vegetables and oysters were plentiful and cheap, and that state continued to be the center of the industry for many years; but it did not make much progress until the civil war are the forests of Lebanon were used Palestine supported in affluence million people. The mountain have long been denuded. For slopes, barren and ugly, rear weird forms sharply above dismal desolate valleys Scarcely four thousand people remain in allusion, and most of these are in a deprived, hopeless poverty. Once maintaining a multitude perous towns and cities—Anti-wing a population of half a mill that present the scene of irreparable. The destruction of Syria's begun 2650 B.C., followed by appearance of her soil and the loss of her industries, would alone produced this effect. Babylon, capital of the world, is a heap. Both and Carthage, once the seats of city civilizations, and abundantly fed by generous Nature for perpetual life, are desolate wastes. Man lived the forests, and lands which flowed with milk and honey were formed into deserts. Are parts of Asia Minor, of North Africa, of Greece, and even some Europe, where the operation has set in action by man has at the face of earth to a desolate most as complete as that of the land though, within that brief time men call the "historical" they are known to have been used with luxuriant woods, verdant trees, and fertile meadows, they now too far deteriorated to be reable by man; nor can they become fitted for human use except with great geological changes, or mysterious influences or agencies such we have no present knowl- Travel, which adds charm to the conversation of an agreeable person, sometimes renders a bore more tiresome than ever. "And there I stood, Aunt Susan," said Miss Porter's long-winded nephew, who had been droning on about his summer in Switzerland for some hours after the old lady's eyes began to droop, "and there I stood, Aunt Susan, with the abyss yawning in front of me." "William," said Aunt Susan, speaking as one who has long kept silent, "was that abyss a-yawning before you got there, or did it begin afterward?" $3 EXCURSION TO SAN DIEGO On August 234 the Santa Fe will sell $3 round trip excursion tickets to San Diego, good for return passage 30 days from date of sale.
