NUTS NOT HARVESTED
Speaking of nuts reminds us of an experience in batching. We expeoted company one day and decided lo bake a cake.
We knew a shacker who had accumulated
a cook book somehow, and we borrowed it.
Giving the list of cake recipes the once
over, we selected one that didn't call for
separating the white of an egg from the
yolk, which is a sleight of hand performance that no batch should be permitted to
attempt and live. Well, this recipe called
for "a piece of butter the size of a nut."
"Clear as mud!" we rejoiced." "Transparent as the innermost thoughts of a
chicken!" But at that it took some cogitation. Nuts are of various-sizes; there is
the chinkapin nut, about as big as a grey-
back and a-half; then there is the cocoa-
nut, which resembles a city-editor's head
when he was about four years old, before
his head commenced to swell.
"Butter the size of a nut."
Yes.
Just so.
Wonder what size the nut was who
compiled this cook book.
We returned the book and stewed a
gold-pan full of dough-nuts in boiling lard.
A dough-nut is a chunk of sweetened sourdough, wrapped around a one-inch hole,
and cooked as above.
THEORIES EXPLODED
The annual discussion is on through the columns of city papers as to the reasons for spelling
Christmas "Xmas." Theologians, archaeologists,
ethnologists and other high-brows who possess
less practical knowledge than a ditch digger, are
propounding deep and profound theories. Some
maintain that the X stands for a cross; others,
that the early Christians adopted the picture of a
fish as sort of an identification brand, and the
Greek sign for a fish was an X. Any printer
could tell them that Xmas is used in place of
Christmas because the latter word is too long to
be used in an ordinary display advertisement.
Thus are theories shattered by facts.
Good roads may be regarded as a luxury
from a tourist point of view, but they are an absolute necessity if the rich resources of the province are to be developed.���Western Canada Mining News.
If silence is golden, some of the lobby lizards

THE FALL of the year is the season
for gathering nuts. This fall might now
be said to be over, and still, in glancing
around, we note quite a crop of nuts that
have not yet been harvested. The Mining
tree has been profusely grafted and produces a variety of nuts; some of them:
The group of men, calling themselves
a mining company, who expect to make a
mine with the expenditure of a few hundred dollars.
The brainless wonder who thinks
every property incorporated is bound to
make a mine.
His brother, who believes the quota-
tations on the stock exchange boards represent the value of the properties stocked.
The prospector who stakes more
claims than he can do assessments on.
The blank-blank blanketer who buys
lead-pencils instead of dynamite.
The claim owner who thinks it is too
much hard work to nail a sign to a tree on
the main trail giving directions how to
find his ground.
His brother who wants a million dollars for a claim with no wood, no water,
no cabin, no trail, no work and no commercial ore in sight.
His cousin who will not shoot into ore
for fear he might blow it out.
The promoter who lies to the public
and the city papers.
His brother who tries to fool the home
paper that knows the facts.
The "mining writer" who doesn't
knew a piece of porphyry from a piece of
buffalo chip.
The paper that prints his stuff.
The "wise business man" who says all
mining stoek promotions are crooked.
The ore sampler who can't keep his
fingers off the high-grade.
The elaim owner who fails to assay
everything he is not sure about.
The developer who quits a shaft, drift
or crosscut without putting in another
round of shots.
The prospector or miner who tamps a
hole with an iron epeon or opens a box of
keaps while smoking.
The claim owner who thinks it is easy
lo get money for development.
