And to day por tions of this prollllc llttlo tropic Island dnpend nltonothcr on Irrigation for tho cultivation of Its rice, or puddy fields, and ten plantations, tho former being the chlof source of sustennuco 0 tho Inhabitants, the latter n great export touching tho happiness of ninny of tho tcn-drlnkcrs of tho civilized world. And why, you ask, should Irrigation be necessnry on a small Island In tho rain bolt of the troplcH? In tho north ern portion of Ceylon, owing to tho nbsonco of mountains and rivers, rainfall is restricted and when tho hot monsoons sweep over this portion twlco n year, tho moisture Is sucked from tho nlr and tho soli, as tho hot winds of tho Great American dosort rob it of moisture and refuse to re turn a drop of rain to tho parched nnd barren soil. Tho Irrigation works of Ceylon nro tho most ancient nnd tho most re markablo In the world. Tho ilrst tank In Coylon was constructed CO t 1). C, and tho anclont Singhalese kings oxtonded them In almost lncred Iblo numbers; tho capital being In tho dry zone, a vast systom of Irrigation works covered tho country llko n not work nnd supported a dense popula tion. Tho vnst number of tanks con structed by this anclont people Is nscrlbablo to tho lulluencn of tho Uuddhlst religion which, abhorring tho destruction of animal life, taught its votaries to subsist exclusively on veg etable food. Ilonco, thn planting of pardons, tho diffusion of fruit trees pnd leguminous vegetables, tho sow ing of dry grain, thn building of res ervoirs and canals, and tho reclama tion of land In situations fuvorublo for Irrigation. Tho most remarkable of these an clont engineering fonts Is the dam ming of tho wators of a river at Kaln wowa which formed n rosorvolr 10 mllos In circumference with un arti ficial cmbankmont 12 tulles long and a spill formed of hammered granite. A canal moro than CO miles long carried tho fertilizing and llfo-glvlng waters to tho undent capital city of Amtradha puru; nnd yot moro wonderful to re lato, Is to-day fiillllllng its mission of Irrigating tho paddy Holds In tho vi cinity of tho city with tho unpro nouucnblc namo, tho llrltlsh govern ment havlnn restored It about 15 yoars ago. It wub constructed by King Dhatu Son about1 tho yenr 400 A.

Another groat tank which hns been recently restored by tho llrltlsh gov ernment In tlio Giant's tnnlc, whose nrou would huvo boon eipml to that of Lttko Geneva If tho original stu pendous plans had been carried out. As it IS to-day, tho tank Is capable of Irrigating 20,000 ncres or yand. And yot another groat artlllclnl lako now being rsstorod Is Mlnnerl, which travolors luvo pronounced tho loveli est sylvnu spot la all Ceylon, It was built by Mnda Son, 27C A.

Tho 1900 crop of fruit In the Grand Vulley In Colorndo, from the Palis ades above to Loma below, valued at 13,000,000, owon Its exlsteneo to a unique bnttlo which was waged against Jack Frost at a time when the fruit wns ut its tendcrest age, says Scientific Aniorlcnn. lly untisunl gen eralship and tho work of hundreds of enthusiastic volunteers tho tempera ture In theso orchards Wns actually raised eight and nine degrees over 27 miles of territory and a precedent was ostablislied which will menu much to the future. In California It Is said that the tem perature has been raised heretofore In some slnglo orchards two or three de grees, but never to eight degrees, and nevor beforo has tho work been cur ried on ovor so great an earn. Plans are now on foot to have every bearing orchard In the Ornnd Vulley protected by next season, not that there Is nny likelihood of frost every spring In this section, but because the protection o( this year's experience Is considered cheap Insurance. Tho rntslng of the temperature ovor this largo area was accomplished by means of some :i00,000 smudge pots ot many different types, somo burning oil for fuel and somo coal, uud pluccd ut Intervals in tho orchards. Oil was carried to the pots In wagon tanks equipped for tho purpose. Spraying machines were also used In distribu ting tho oil. A large supply of light ers was kept In readiness In n dry place. Many of these lighters wero made by wrnpplng waste abput a twisted wire. AH operations were directed from Grand Junction. Weather stations es tablished ovor much of tho territory nnd equipped with thermostats when tho threatening weather arrived mado hnlf-liourly reports on tho tempera turo to Grand Junction. When, final ly, tho danger point wns approaching warning was sent to all tho ranchmon to light the fires. Volunteers also in nearly nil walks 'of llfo mado their way In automobiles nnd wagons and on bicycles over the ontlro area. So well did this orchard-heating Idea work that, whllo the tompernturo outside tho heated arn dropped ob low as 20 degrees, within tho heatod area It did not go below 29Vd. Sevon-ty-llvo per cent, of nil tho fruit trees which woro In bloom wero enred for directly, whllo oven orchards owned by those who were skeptical of tho Idea wero saved by tho fires of the ad joining territory. LIVE STOCK NOTE8. Do tho pigs squeal because they aro hungry or cold? Find out; there Is no profit In either condition. no suro that tho breeding sows nro not getting too fat, or too thin. Koep them In a thrifty, growing condition. For horses that aro confined to tho stable on dry food, a hot bran mash onco or twlco euch week Is most bono ilclal. In handling sheep tench them to fol low. Tho owner or caretaker should be so familiar with his Hock that It will Tollow wherover ho loads. ' Don't lot nny 0110 chnso tho young lambs. It Is all right to take them up In the arms, but If your sheep know you, you enn do that so gently that no disturbance will follow. A spirited horso will In tho end bo made slow and spiritless by constant nagging, twitching of tho linos, peev ish urging nnd other wearing proc esses that fretful drivers practise. Pigs aro not well protected by na ture uud to thrive they must linyo warm wlntor quarters freo from drafts. Thoy must have a good rnngo for exercise, but thoy must havo warm quarters In which to sleep. Don't dispose of tho rcgulnr breed ing maro becnuso she Is getting old. A single foal will pay her keep, oven If she does not do much work, and sho will not bring much on tho market anyway. Pastures aro usually not what they should bo or might bo on tho average fattt. They should bo mudo to pro ducts to tho utmost in forago, and woods not at all. Fill tho noil wltn grass rootB and tho weeds will buc cumb. Top drwsing the pastures nnd mead ovh with bitrnyurd manuro will erontly stimulate the growth of tho grasses nnd add inuclrlutfcTit fertility for use or future grain aops.

For Little Miss By Julia Bottomley. Moro attention hns been given to children's millinery within the past three yoars than ever beforo. Tho re mit Is a greater number or designs to chooso from. TIiIb branch ot tho milliner's art was neglected because It was not profitable to the milliner. Dut now tho manufacturers of hnts have begun to produce numbors of pretty und inexpensive shapes, which may bo quickly trimmed, nnd tho milliner has boon nblo to show a variety of models at a price which her patrons will consider. Nothing will ever supplant tho plain "Hat" In felt as tho most popular or hats for thu little girl at this season. N'ext to It arc tho bonnot-llko hnts, tho mushroom shapes, with drooping brim and full, soft crowns. Two or theso pretty nnd childish models are shown la Figs. 1 and 2. In tho first a soft crown of velvet is very cleverly mount ed to tho brim. Six box plaits laid at equally distant intervals aro slashed so that a collar of soft ribbon Is run through them nnd Is finished In n rib bon bow at the left sldo, toward tho hack. The same ribbon is plaited In a rullle about tho brim. Llttlo original touches, such ns there aro In trim ming, aro moro valuable in making children's millinery than nny nmount of elaboration In work. Fig. 2 shows a felt hat, faced with whlto molro silk. A velvet crown Is cliclcd with n crushed collnr of silk or ribbon, finished in the simplest of lows. A finishing touch appears In tho two velvet cabochons which aro NEW AND DAINTY. Hero Is something now nnd dainty In a fall shirt mndo from cream de laine with platted fronts and sleovos and finished with a linen collar cut In points mid embroidered with self-color dots. This collnr Is bordered with a very narrow edging of real Irish laco and tho bodice Is filled In with n tucked collar and chemlsetto of white lawn. A pretty finishing touch Is giv en by a gray-bluo Bilk tlo mndo with open ends. Sleeve Frills. The tailors will again Introduce tho plaited frill at tho wrlBt of coats. This was tried onco beforo, but mot with llttlo favor. Tho Amorlcaii woman In sisted that the frill annoyed her aud that sho could only stand it on elab orate afternoon costumes. Tho French woinon hnvo boon wonr Ing it nil Bumuior to match tho plait ed frill thoy woro at tho front of thqlr blouses, but tho Fronch women adore pluttlngs, in 111 03 mid furbelows, nnd It must be admitted that these garnish lugs do not nuit altogether the Anglo Suxuu women. mounted at the front In plnce of metal ornaments. A "beohlvo" shnao Is shown In Fig. ;i, which is covered with nllk. Tho silk Is shirred to fit tho shnpo of tho crown, nnd tae brim pre viously covered with silk, Is finished with a plaited riifllo of this material. A rosette of ribbon or hemmed silk makes tho decidedly pretty ilnlsh at tho loft side. A knotted ropo of gilt or silver brightens tho model, laid over tho brim and tacked down at Inter vals. Tho plain nnd perennially fashion r.blo folt flat Is shown In Fig. 4. A concession to the voguo of full crowns Is shown In the "Tnm" crown of volvet which surmounts a largo full puff. Bias folds of velvot, shirred over a wlro, form a big, spreading bow at tho left front nnd comp'oto tho model, which embodies tho best features In chil dren's millinery. A felt Hat which Is soiled may often be successfully cleaned with gasoline. A certain softness In the brim Is desir able, but If this lapses Into "Hoppl noss" tho brim must bo supported by ono of several methods employing wlro. Hrlms which droop prettily nro much moro elegnnt looking nnd much more becoming thnn a stiff, straight bilm can ovor be. Only very simple trimmings nro in good tnsto for children. Tho models bhown hero domonstrnto thnt only tho simplest are needed. Ribbon nbovo all cIeo, In the plain, soft weaves and hav ing a high luster, Is tho best mutorlul lo choose In decorating a hat for tho llttlo miss. BLOUSES OF DRESDEN SILK Many New nnd Effective Designs Have Been Introduced by tho Costumers. Porslnn Bilk Is artfully utilized by mnny blouse mnkcrs for tho rounda tlon over which dark chiffon falls. Tho lovely design of this silk in elu sive In Its coloring, and Its uncer tainty adds a chnrm which is alwnyB striven for by thoso who shun migrant or conspicuous tones. One undorblouso of Persian silk in which greon nnd roniivo nro veiled with n silver light Is especially beau tiful under a black chiffon bolero. This Is braided with black soutache and falls to tho top of a folded glrdlo of silk. Long silk slooveB nro draped at tho top with chlrron, and emerald buttons ornniucnt tho front nnd back of tho glrdlo and tho outer lino of tho sleeves. Tiny black sntln loops nnd n Binnll cravat finish this blouse. Persian silks nro rising In favor bo causo or their tvvo-cqlored effects, mnk Ing It posslblo to wear ono blouBo with two dlfforont suits. Two New Fabrics. Among tho new mnterlals with fan ciful names uro tho Thais molro and Alaska crope. Roth of them nro qulto offectlvc, but they havo nothing sug gcstlvo of their names In tho toxturos. Howovor, wo havo such a variety or rabrlca this year that It must bo dim cult to got names ror nil or thorn; nnd wo nro adopting tho old Fronch method or using tho namo or the hour for our garments and our textiles. Velveteen Coats. The richness of tho long velvot coat may bo almost repeated In velveteen. This mntorlal and corduroy nro both loo beautifully mado to bo scorned. A'elvetoen nevor seems llko nn Imi tation but llko a more durable quality of velvet. This It really is, since tho weather has no 111 effects upon it nnd bocnuso It will outwear any velvet thnt may bo bought, LOST REGISTERED LETTERS FOUNDJNJJ EER PLACE Missed From n Mangled Mall Bag, They are Recovered From Car Trucks. It does not always follow that tho disappearance of registered mail packagos indlcnto a robbery of tho mall. This was demonstrated on Tho Ovorland Limited train No, 2 Friday, November Cth, when a pnek ago of five registered letters from Schuyler disappeared betweoa that point and Omaha. Tho recovery or thu lost package was as strango ns its disappearance. Tho Schuyler pouch Is picked up from a crnne by means of a pouch catcher ns tho train passes. This pouch catcher is attached to tho mall car and hooks onto tho pouch sus pended from tho crnno nu tho train passes. In this particular Instance tho pouch cntchnr did not make a good catch and tho pouch foil under the wheels of tho train and was cut In two. Tho mall was scattered along tho track for n considerable distance, but tho flvo registered letters, which wero in a packet, could not bo found when tho other mall wns picked up. Tho Impression at onco prevailed that the registered packago had boon found and kopt by somo ono and It was re ported as losL PostoHlco Inspector L. A. Thomp son was started out to investlgato. Ills first visit wns to Council Bluffs to ninko Inquiries of tho postal clerks on tho car, and scarcely had ho reached thero when ho received word that tho registered packago had been found by tho car cleaner resting snug ly on tho trucks under tho dining car, whero it had been blown or thrown whon tho mall pouch wns 'flung under tho wheels nt Schuyler. That tho packago was not Injured In tho slightest, nor jarred from its position on tho trucks, Is simply an other trlbuto to tho Union Pacific's unsurpassed roadbed and porfoct track. Schools for Tuberculous Children. Special schools for tuberculous chil dren havo now been established In Provldonco, Doston, Now York, Roches ter, Washington, Hartford, Conn., Chi cago and Pittsburg. New York has tliroo schools and Washington, D. C. two. Tho board of education of Now York city is proposing to establish threo more, and similar institutions nro being planned in Detroit, Buffalo, Phlladolphlu, Cincinnati and Newark. N. J. In cities llko Provldonco, Boston and Now York, wh"ro outdoor schools havo been conducted for two years, tho re sults obtained from tho treatment of children In special tuberculosis open air schools seem to show tho great ad vantage of this class of Institutions. This, coupled with tho experience of open air schools in Oermany and Eng land, proves that children can bo cured of tuberculosis nnd keep up with their school work, without any danger to fellow pupils. The Cost of Politics. In his reminiscences of Grover Clovclnnd George F. Parker tolls a story concerning prodigal expendi tures In politics. A rich man who had been nibbling nt the Democratic nomination for governor of Now York asked William C. Whitney's advice. This is tho advlco: "Of courso, you ought to run! Make your preliminary canvuss, nnd when you havo put In J20O.O0O you will havo become bo much interested In It thnt you will feel llko going ahead and spending somo money." Refrigerated Staterooms. Refrigerated staterooms nro fouud on threo now ships engaged in the fruit service between New Orleans and, Colon. Each room is fitted with a cooling "radiator" oporated In con nection with tho refrigerating system that lias been installed for preserving fruit In transit. Lest One Should Fall. It Is woll to moor your bark with two anchors. Publlus Syrus. SECRET WORKERS The Plan Upon Which Coffee Operates. Coffoe Is such a secret worker thnt It Is not suspected as the causo of sick ness or disease, but thero Is a very suro way to And out tho truth. A lndy In Memphis gives an inter esting experience hor husband had with coffee. It socms that ho had boeu using it for somo tlmo and wub an Invalid. Tho physician in chnrgo shrewdly suspected that coffee wub tho "Worm ut tho root of tho tree," and ordored It discontinued with instruction's to uso Poatum regularly In its place. Tho wlfo Bays; "Wo found that was tho true remedy for his stomach and heart troublo nnd wo would havo glad ly paid a hundred times tho amount of tho doctor's chnrgo when wo' found how wlso his Judgment was. "Tho uso or Postum lustead ot cor feo was hogun about a year ago, and It has mado my husband n strong, woll man. Ilo hns gained thlrty-flvo pounds In that tlmo and hla stomach and heart troubles havo all disappeared. "Tho flrst tlmo I prepared it I did not boll it long enough and ho Bald thoro was something wrong with It. Suro enough It did (asto very flat, but the next morning I followed directions carefully, boiling It for flftoon mlnuteB, and ho romarked 'this Is better than any or tho old coffeo.' "Wo uso Postum regularly nnd never tiro of telling our friends of tho bono flt wo have received from leaving off coffeo." Look for tho llttlo book, "Tho Rond to Wellnllo," in ekgs.
