HOW
LESHEDEZ4, THE CLOVKlt
PLANT, GOT THAT NAME.—
When you stop to think ot It, Les
Pedeza Is rather a queer name for a
clover plant, but the public Is be
coming accustomed to using it, so
perhaps It Is as good as any. But
why Lespedezal An interesting
story Is told by one ot the plant
specialists of the United States Pe
part merit of Agriculture of hoiv this
legume received its name.
Back In 1S03, Michaux, a French
botanist, found ami described the
plant while making botanical ex
plorations in Florida. He named It,
he said, after the governor of the
state, Lespedez, who hnd assisted
him In Ids work. But the records
fall to show that Florida ever had
a governor by that name, the chief
executive of the state at the time
the Frenchman was there being
Cespedes. Hence, the assumption is
that the name Lespedez was either
an error or a misprint, and the leg
ume that is now becoming popular
with farmers Is not designated ns
Its discoverer Intended it to be.
.Vhether Lespedez or Cespedesa
does not alter the fact that It has
proven to be a valuable hay and
pusture plant. As the poet would
say, "a rose by any other name
would be just as sweet”—Indiana
Farmer’s Guide.
How Glaciers Worked to
Dig the Basins of Lakes
Dinosaurs lived In Glacier National
park at a time when the climate was
almost tropical. As mountains ap
peared, the weather grew cold. Snow
at last began to fall—more snow than
the summers could melt. Gathering
on protected slopes, says the Ameri
can Nature Association of Washing
ton, snow slowly packed into fields of
Ice. Then that Ice began to move,
and soon was grinding down toward
the plains.
Thus glaciers began their work—
work that dug the basins of lakes and
s'eepened the slopes of ridges and
peaks. At their heads, they broke
away blocks of rocks, which worked
their way Into the Ice, where they
gouged and scraped at Its bottom nnd
sides. In the valley where trails be
gin, that Ice was 2,000 feet thick.
What chance had mere limestone and
shale against such a rasp as that?
As the climate Anally began to
warm, glaciers slowly melted away un
til only remnants remained. Sixty such
remnants still survive: relics of
mighty streams of Ice that shaped the
scenery of the park.
How Bee* Sting
A bee's sting is very complicated,
according to an American entomolo
gist, who says that a bee’s sting Is
the modification of an organ common
to the Insect race—the ovipositor with
which the female deposits the eggs.
Countless ages have changed this Into
an effective natural weapon, says Path
finder Magazine. Approximately 22
muscles are required to complete on
ordinary sting (the number slightly
larger if a queen bee does the sting
ing) and the act Involves three sepa
rate sets of movements. First, the
outward thrust of the sting; second,
depression of the sting; and last, ac
tion of the lancets on the sting which
drives it farther into the flesh of the
victim. Detraction of the sting Is
brought about by a contraction and
expansion of the abdomen, which acts
like a bulb. A poison-secreling organ
opens directly into the channel of tlie
sting and valvular lobes drive the
liquid poison through it
How Phi Delta Kappa Formed
The present fraternity known as Phi
Delta Kappa grew out of the consoli
dation of three prior independent or
ganizations— I’ll! Kappa Mu, orga
nized at Indiana university In 1906;
Phi Delta Kappa, organized at Colum
bia in P.HI8. nnd Nil rtho Beta, or
ganized at Missouri In loot), l’epre
sentatives of these societies met at In
dinnnpolis In 1SI10 and effected a con
solldutlun known ns Phi Delta Kappa
Tills Is an educational fraternity anc
Is distinctly professional in character
It Is devoted to research service anr
leadership in eitucation. Memhershlj
Is honorary in character, and out
standing scholarship Is a ma.lor re

MINERAL RESOURCES OF

As an example of the Dut

and the Homestake in the up

: group further important dis
coveries of gold bearing veins
have been made; the Dunwell
has been rejuvenated; the Ben

intensive work of lessees and
on the Homestake, in the Alice
Arm area, (important gold as

; well is not complete however
without offering credit and
commendation to the handful
of Stewart prospectors whose
energy and foresight in initiat
ing intensive and intelligently
conducted prospecting and
; leasing operations was primari
ly responsible for indicating
i the profitable possibilities lying
1 dormant in these properties,
! and pointing the way to simi
lar opportunities in other prop
j erties.
i The importance of the miner
i al potentialities of the Portland
| Canal and Nass River Mining
j Divisions is reflected primari
ly in production. For the thir
teen year period from 1921 to
the end of 1933 the value of
the combined output from
j these two divisions amounted
| to about $108,000,000. Of
this the Portland Canal Divis

$47,000,000 and the Nass Riv

mier mine at Stew
Granby Consolidated at Any,ox.
The record of the Premier, al
though that of an exceptional
mine is indicative of the hidden
possibilities of the area. Dur
ing itg fourteen years of regu
lar production this mine has
produced metals (mainly gold
and silver) with a gross value
of about $41,000,000 and dis
bursed $17,258,074 to its share
holders. The Anyox operation
of the Granby Consolidated
Company has been responsible
for a major proportion of the
copper output of the province.
Since the commencement of
productive mining and smelt
ing operations at Anyox in
1914 an average annual out
put of about 30,000,000 pounds
jf copper, 300,000 ounces of
silver and over 5,000 ounces of
gold has been maintained. Al
though ore reserves of these
two properties have, in the nat
ural course of mining, been
materially depleted, it is abso
lutely fallacious to assume that
the passing of these operations
in the course of time will mark
the end of large-scale mining
in these two divisions.
| The tavorable geology oi an
extensive area, the virgin con
dition of appreciable sections,
the limited amount (of intens
ive prospecting and exploration
that has been carried out, the
known widespread mineraliza
tion, the great number of al
ready discovered promising
diowings awaiting metal mar
ket adjustment and further in
tensive exploration, are all con
crete factors logically indica
tive of a succession of product
ive mines through the course of
many years.
An analysis of the potential
mineral resources of Che Stew
art and Alice Arm areas and
the various factors involving
their development i3 certainly
indicative of a bright future
and actively exanding mining
operations.
