The cultivation of paper plants in Japan is a very important industry. As is well known, Japanese paper of various kinds is in demand throughout | the world. Recently American and European manufacturers have been giving some attention to the possibility of producing from Japanese paper-pulp | | some of the numberless useful articles and toys similar to those in vogue in To that end Japan- America and in the countries of South- ern Europe. The United States Depart- ment of Agriculture, which recently sent experts to secure seeds of the mit- sumata plants, is to make extensive experiments in growing this particular- | 1y valuable variety. It is believed that | this shrub will thrive in Florida, Louis- iana, in irrigated parts of Texas and the Colorado Desert and mn some sec- | tions of the Sacramenté and San Joa- | quin valteys in California. Should this introduction of the Japanese mitsumata plant into America prove successful it will bring fortune to many farmers. Rice planters, particularly in Texas— the climate of which, it s believed, will prove suitablg to the valuable | exotic—could set shrubs out along the | unoccupied dikes and on all the narrow | strips of land dividing flooded fields }and secure profitable returns from the | enterprise. The American experts, who | have been investigating the subject in Japan, are inclined to believe that when the mitsumata plants are grown successfully in America and American machinery is invented for the conver- sion of the pulp into paper, that pro- duct will be put to many uses not thought of in Japan. The yield of the mitsumata paper plant in Japan frequently amounts to | 2000 pounds of raw bark to the acre. The crude pulp is readily sold at 32 | sen (16 cents) the pound. The seeds alone are sometimes quoted at three ven ($150) the gallon. As many as 24,000 shrubs are grown on an acre. The harvesting is done by cutting the plants off at tie roots. The next spring the shrub grows up again. In fact, mitsumata’rocts a century old, and still sending up new @hoots, are often shown. The plant is highly decorative | and is grown as an ornament In some of the gardens of Japan.—Booklovers’ Magazine. R — ‘When the Colored Fisherman Returns It's a sight to se a colored fisherman coming in with a string of fish and dis- playing it to admiring friends along In- | dlana avenue. A string of fish, espe- | clally if there is a good “cat™ or two | among them, makes a Bucktown darky as happy as if it were a string of pearls. The other evening just before dusk a happy looking darky turned into In- diana avenue at the yellow bridge. He had been fishing up the creek and had | a channel “cat” on his string, the rest : being small “shiners.” He had no more than landed in the avenue when a crowd of darkies gathered around him and looked at his fish in great admira- tion. “Where you all done git 'em, Pete asked one. “'Way up 'bove Jacksons Hole. scandalous how dey do bite up dere Then every darky laughed and Pete moved on down the avenue, stopping here and there as the admiring crowds came out of the stores and saloons to look at his string. He started in at 7:30 and at 10 o’clock he was still in the avenue and had not gone over three blocks. When asked about it a friendly darky said: “Why, dat nigger won't donme git home dis night, shuah!”"—Indianapolis News. It's —_————— Goulds’ Son Uses $1000 Toy. George J. Gould is enjoying himself at Lakewood these days. His young son Jay has had a miniature of the Missouri Pacific railroad system laid out on the grounds of Georgian court and passes many hours sending trains on a steel track drawn by a thousand dollar locomotive that his father gave him as a Christmas present. .I haven't seen the pretty toy, but I recall the remark of Henry Clews when we were discussing an article in one of the newspapers criticizing George Gould for spending a thousand dollars on a plaything. “Nobody can find any fault with the gift of a toy engine,” said he. “I have bought many a piece of paper from George's father with a picture of a locomotive on it that brought me sor- row instead of amusement—and wasn't worth nearly as much, although it cost me a great deal more.”—Washington Star. — - Wage Workers in Bohemia. In Bohemia every wage worker of whatever sex or age must have a “work book,” which contains his per- sonal description and history and his employer’s indorsements.
