FLAGSTONE IS SHIPPED
FROM CATHEY VALLEY,
The first carload of béautifully
eolored flagstone was shipped from
the Le Grand depot last Tuesday, to
San Mateo, where it is to be used in
making a patio in a new home.
The flagstone, which has the modero name “San Joaquin’’ is quarri_
ed from Table Mountain, on the Joe
Machada ranch near Cathey’s Valley,
‘and trucked to Le Grand for shipment on the railroad.
There aré now four men working
at the quarry and dn average of one
carload is being shipped each week.
This is, no doubt, one of
est deposits of flagstone in the val-!
Jey and each day more and more
“uses are being found for it. There
are probably numerous other deposits of the same’ material which
will be largely used in the near future, developing a new yaaa in
the Cathay section.—Mariposa

Wealth Showered Upon
Favorites of Fortune
An American artist named Mott
traveled to the Pribilof islands in a
sealing vessel a year ago to paint
some pictures of seals in their native
! home, und one day noticed a curious
bank of sand lying close along the
shore. He dug into it, and found
beneath the» sand a mass of bones.
They iwere seal bones—millions of
them—which had been flung up by the
sea in the course of centuries. Further
search has shown that there are miles
of these bone deposits along the
shores of the islands. One pile is a
mile long, half a mile wide, and six
feet deep. Now, bones are one of the
best of all fertilizers, and the value
of the find is simply gigantie—far
greater than that of any gold mine.
This brings to mind the case of the
. wandering prospector who, years ago,
. while crossing a desert In Wyoming,
.
'
!
Ee
came across the body of a_ horse
which, thongh it must have died long
ago, was still fresh and sweet. The
l .
; body was covered with a layer of fine
.
dust, which the prospector recognized
; as borax, He saw the value of the
, discovery and sold it to a large packing firm in Chicago, who kept the sei eret for a long time. Today the uses
of borax are innumerable, andrange
from the preservation of food down to
dressings for tired feet and lotions for

Colossal Frozen Fal!s
Unequaled for Beauty
i} . Four thousand, feet high and a mile
wide—a solid mass of ice scintillating
and gleaming with a myriad lights—
the Hochstetter ice falls in the Tas
man area of. the southern Alps are
one of nature’s most marvelous sights.
They fall from the Grand plateau and
the Linda glacier and swell the volume of the mighty Tasman glacier
three-quarters of a mile below. The
eye of man has beheld no scene which
is the peer of these colossal falls.
Plunging precipitately down the rugged slopes of a mountain more than
12,000 feet in height, with a huge
black rock in their midst as the only
contrast to their dazzling purity, the
falls are justly famed as nature's supreine gift to a beauty-loving world.
One glimpse of such” transcendent
loveliness provides the awed observer
. with a lifetime of vivid recollections.
. There is every truth in the assertion
' that neither pen nor camera cun convey an adequate appreciation of the
glory of these falls, but in the minds
. of many people now departed over
. the seven seas they will ever remain
an indelible and haunting memory.—
Exchange.
