The division of publication of the

adequate to meet the requests directly

An experimental shipment of Califor
nia oranges, raisins and other fruit
products Is to be made to Japan In tha
hope of building up a large trade.
Japan grows oranges, but they are
small, and II Is said that no raisins
are raised there. Tbo plan originated
with a Japanese commission house,
nnd It I* hoped to send the fruit wltjp
out lee and still have. It In a salable
condition when received.
Fancy, If tho thing were possible, a
string of the most powerful modern
locomotives, such ns nro used to pull
tlx- fastest limited expresses, dashing
along qulot country highways aud
through country villages at the speed
they now show on tho rails. The like
of that—but worsc-ls what "sport" has
come to In and around the self-styled
capital of civilisation. Tbe alienist
who flrst said “speed-madness" labeled
the thing perfectly, nnd idle and bored
wealth’s perpetual cfnving for some
tierce, biting new excitement explains
It. Nationality has nothing to do with
It, exclaims tho Hartford Courant

'A scientific Investigation of extraor
dinary Interest Is about to bo under
taken In the Philippines under the
dlreoton of tbo Smithsonian Institute,
cays Youth's Companion. Ethnologists
aver that the various tribes In those
islands represent a mixture of the
blood of all the races and varieties of
mankind. Tho white, the Mack and
tho brown have each contributed a
share. In 'tbo combination of bloods
nro found tbe Negrito, tbe Papuan and
tbo African; tho Malay and tbo Poly
nesian; tho Chinese, tbo Japanese and
Cambodian; the Hamlte, tbe Semite
nnd the Aryan; tbo Caucasian, and
even, In a slight degreo, tbe American
Indian. Thq proposed research Into
tho origin and development of this
blending of races Involves a study of
habits, relics, prehistoric remains,
tribal legends and occupations. I
In tho past dosen years there bos
grown up In our cltlea a distinct branch
of medical science which alma to re-
Hevo tho sufferings of animals and
bird* In times of .sickness, and oven to
Invent for them .surgical appliances to 1
save broken or Injured Umbs and or-
guns. Veterinary sclcncd la of long
Inn <
standing, and an honorablo profession,
but asldo from this tbe application of
science nnd surgery to nil classes bt
birds and animal* Is comparatively
new. This Is partly idue to the fact
that people today have far more house
hold pets than aver before, and nearly
every city of importance has its xoo-
loglcal garden and captive wild anim
als. The amount of money Invested In
valuable wild animal* In soos and cir
cuses la estimated at several millions
of dollars, and It Is only natural that
precautionary measures should bo
taken to protect these expensive pos
sessions from ordinary accidents and
sickness.
