POTATO CHIPS THAT PLEA8E
DEPEND ON TEMPERATURE
. J
To the consumer potato. chips are
( merely another form of that vegetable
?but to man who makes them there
i is often the. problem of obtaining potatoes
that will make .the light-colored,
crisp and tasty morsel that the
publiCv.demandB. ??
) Scientists of the Bureau of Plant
i Industry, United States department of
I aguriculture, have come to the assistance
of restaurant men and manufacI
turers of potato chips who have encountered
some unsuitable potatoes
for chips, French frys and baking.
And after several months of research
they have traced the trouble down to
one trouble?storage.
In searching for the most desirable
potatoes for these uses the Bureau
scietists stored potatoes under tem^
peratures ranging from 32 to 70 degrees
FFrom these investigations
I it was found that potatoes to be used
in making good chips should be stored
at temperatures ranging from 60
to 70 degrees. ~~ ?? Potatoes
stored at 60 degrees were
made - into chips desirable In every
way with the exception of color or
appearance. Chips made from potatoes
at temperatures of 40 degrees
and lower were off in both color and
taste.

i what is the Idea of the Unicdrn?a

writer In Pearson's Weekly. Well, the
Unicorn was the emblem ofc the old
kings of Scotland, and when James VI
I of Scotland came to reign over England,
he introduced the Unicorn into
j the Royal Arms. How did the Unicorn
get to Scotland? From the Crusades,
it is believed. Scottish kntghts fighting
in the Fust saw it used there at
a device on shields, and Introduced It
into their own country. Although the
Unicorn never existed. It is mentioned
in the Bible! But'it Is taken there
to mean the buffalo.

Isolated "NepaJ
Nepal Porters Carry 150-Pound Loads.
rrtptrro ny tn? National Geographic Soolaty.
Washington. D. a?WNU Barvlca.
NEPAL, though Isolated In the
high mountains north of the
border of India, and almost un^
touched by western civilisation,
is remarkable In a number of
ways. It can boast of unrivaled natural
scenery, of the highest and roost
fascinating mountains; of unique architectural
monuments; of an Immense
army quite out of proportion to the
population; of an excellent and enlightened
system of government which
brings peace ahd prosperity to the little
kingdom.
Even the chosen few who gain access
to Nepal may not wander at will.
An Interesting way to approach NepHl
Is through Haxaut, on the frontier of
India.
The most agreeable way of reaching
Raxaul Is by way of Patna, the ancient
capital of Asoka. From here the pious
Buddhist emperor himself set out, in
2f>0 B. C., on his religious pilgrimage
to Nepal and other sacred strongholds
of his faith. At Patna you board a
paddle boat and crulBe five or six miles
up the Gauges?the distance varies according
to the height of the river?and
get Into a waiting train on the other
side. Next morning you wake up in
Raxaul. ), K ..
On one sid?~Ke the unbroken acres
of the Bihar rice fields, yellowing beneath
the sun; oa^the other He more
rice fields, In the sequestered kingdom.
You strain your eyes toward the eastern
horizon and dimly perceive a dark
green belt
This lowf-Jying tract of cultivation
and Jungle, lying between the
Himalayan foothills and th^ border of
Bihar, and stretching 200 miles from
east to west, is known as the Taral.
Froifi April to November this part of
the country is Infested with a deadly
malarial fever. Thus the stray visitor 1
to Nepal wisely confines his visit to
the winter.
Beyond the Taral again rise huge
shadowy forms, the Himalayas hiding
In the morning mist. Then ensues the
Inevitable argument with your neighbor
as to whether a certain white object
is Mount Everest or merely a dec$I
t ruT cloud.
Through the Jungles.
From Raxaul, a little meter-gauge
train sets off across the Taral. For the
first mile the railroad leads through
the main street of the city, with shop
and house fronts on either side. Then
It comes out Into the open rice fields
and so Into the tiger and rhino-haunted
Jungles beyond. And what Jungles!
Halfway through them your tralif
draws up, all passengers get out, clamber
onto the backs of waiting elephants,
and pad silently off Into the
mysterious depths.
The Jungles of the Nepal Taral are |
sub-tropical and consist chiefly of sal :
trees with long, thin black trunks, and
huge leaves starting very near tho'
^base. "Here and there a giant teak, !
with its beautiful crocodile back, soars <r
upward, stately and erect
Festoons of creepers hang from tree
to tree. The most common variety has
magnificent velvety leaves, large and
round like soup plates of palest green
celadon. In the lower regions stocky
Uttle banana palms flourish, and wild
ginger, with brilliant crimson fruits.
All this thriving growth is interrupted
in certain places by the passage of
wide river beds. These have long been
destitute of water, and their barren *
white sands and smooth round pebbles
contrast strangely with the luxuriant
vegetation on either sTcfc.
A tiger shoot in Nepal la conductedon
novel lines: the tiger Is attracted to

of elephants. Slowly the ring closes
in Until the angry beast, well aware
of what la going on, ehargea. Aa the

flown the line of thto waving trunks
and swishing tails: there Is not another
howdah elephant, carrying rifles,
for a hundred yards. Perhaps the wily
creature sought would break through
the Intervening, unarmed ranks?
The Tiger Charges.
But you have little time to consider
this possibility. From a neighboring
clump of banana palms comes a series
of snurls, and before you quite realise
what Is happening a huge bristling
mass of black and yellow Is hurtling
toward you. It Is a wonderful thing,
the charge of an angry tiger?the break
from cover In a crash of thunder, the
mighty bounds toward the foe, the
gleaming teeth, the flaming eyes, and
roars of savage hate.
A companion flres once, and the elephants
turn with one accord, for none
will face a charge; twice, and the tiger
turns with a bitter snarl which subsides
Into a last groan of defeut as he
rolls over and lies dead at the bottom
of a little gully.
There ensues a terrific hullabaloo:
mahouts remonstrating with their
charges for displaying so much cowardice,
shikaris shouting with delight, beaters
breaking off branches to poke the
victim and make certain that not a
park of..life remains.
Then some of the men kneel down
by the warm body and spread Ave or
six large sal leaves with fresh blood
in honor of their goddess, Kail. Many
Jungle folk feed their children tiger
meat to make them bmve and strong!
After two ? days' shooting In the
Taral, you push on to the railway terminus,
AmlekhganJ. From here you continue
the Journey toward Katmandu,
the capital of Nepal, by motor.
Some thirty miles of narrow tut excellent
road lead through wooded foothills
to Bhlmphedl, where the ascent of
the first mountain pass begins.
Here ponies and dandls take the
place of cars. There are two different
types of dandi: one Is a wooden chair
with leather cushions, the other a
canvas hammock, slung on long 'poles,
In which you can lie full length. Both
re carried by teams of six coolies in
bright-blue cotton uniforms.
Two miles from Bhlmphedl lies the
little mountain village of Klsagarbl,
where travelers customarily spend the
night. The village Is complete with
Its garrison of Qurkhaa?a foretaste
of the tremendous military power active
within the kingdom.
\Ovsr the Pass to tha Valley.
Affkr-rWpg early at Sisagarbl you
climb the row remaining feet which
lead to the top of the first pass, approximately
8,000 feet high.
Directly below you lies a smiling
valley, while beyond It a turbulent
mountain ocean rises and falls In
colossal waves of sunlight and shadow;
far out to "sea'' the waves are capped
by the glistening white horses of the
eternal snows.
Then the descent begins. The path
is no longer smooth; It Is exceedingly
steep and Incredibly rough. It consists
principally of solid rock and
long Its Jagged surface large loose
bowlders are strewn at random.
For the next six miles you ride
through flourishing fields of brownheaded
buckwheat, golden mustard*
and ripening rice. The snows are no
longer visible and the sun shines
brightly overhead. Near the various
villages kind-hearted women have
placed brass vessels fall of water and
flowers by ihe wfiyslde, a thoughtful
attention for the traveler.
The path eventually leaves tbpjlelds
to rise snd fall over rolltrfy0 grassy
downland. Then you come to the foot
of the Chandraglrl past, from below,
the road before you resembles the
sheer wall of a precipice; but your
ponies make light of it.
The view from the top of the Chandraglrl
pass is so amsstog that you
cannot afterwards believe a exists
Below lies the clrcdlar rice clad valley i
of Katmandu, bathed la the oraage
glow of the evening ?on. Hieing out
of It, away to the right. In n medley
of miniature pagodas, palaces, and

old Insurance agent, Leon Vatet, bit
oft Imlf a black cigar, leaned back
I in liis swivel chair today, and told
how he drove Texan ilrHt angora gout
herd through Kugle l'ass, the nucleus
for the herds owned by Vice President
John Nance Garner in Uvalde
1 county.
The former "Frencby" Valet of the
Chisholm trail, who camped three
days with Jess Jumna, knew Wild Dili
Hickok, Iluffalo Hill Cody, Hill Thompson
and "Pink" Hums, und whose
forehead beurs a crease from the tornahawk
of a Comanche Indian, said< "I'd
like to shftHo bauds with Garner?Cactus
Jack Garner. To meet
Vice President Uaruer, 1 wouldn't give
a darn."
"I hit Texas in the spring of 1H76,"
said the former Texas Hanger. "Fellow
named James Parrish owned a
ranch neur Leon Springs, about 25
miles from Sun Antonio. Some years
before, Parrish hud Imported from
Asia a buck and three female goats.
When I got there he had pretty sireable
flocks and an order to deliver
100 male kids to ranches in and
around Eagle Pass on the Rio Orando
river.
"Parrish was scared of reports of
Comanche Indians on raiding parties
In the counties of Bexar, Uvalde and
Maverick. The famous Confederate
general, Beauregard, was a visitor at
the ranch when I rode in. I needed
a Job, so I volunteered to drive the
herd through Eagle Pass, providing
Parrish would send along with me
Patrick Thompson, foreman of the
ranch. He did and we drove the
goats through without seeing a redskin.
From these goats were sired
the present herds of Garner."
Asked about the scare on his forehead,
Vatet said, "Oh, that's Just a
crease I got from a Comanche's tomahawk
at Neuces Canyon In Uvalde
county. I was a ranger then and we
were training horse thieves."
Vatet's first meeting with Jesse
James was strange. He was camped
on the Texas border with Bill Paterson
of Boonesville, Mo., home town
of the James brothers. They were
preparing breakfast. '
"Three hombres rode up," said Vatet.
"I knew one of 'em. He was
Pinky B^rns, a horse thief. I made
up mj^mind the other two were outlaws,
too, 'cause Bill did not introduce
'em. Well, they ate breakfast
and stayed with us nearly three day^
They were pleasant hombres, at that.
They didn't have much to say. We
didn't ask any questions, either.
"About a week after they had drifted,
Bill asked me if I knew the three
riders. One was Burns, I told him,
and the other was Jesse James. He
seemed surprised that 1 guessed correct
on James. He never told me the
other fellowV xrairor tnrt~T Btrepect It
was Frank James.
"Now Jesse was a fine-looking fellow.
His features were clearcut. His
dark hair was long and wavy. His
manners were faultless. Jesse wasn't
a thug in any sense of the word. He
had a code of honor such as It was.
He was merely a product of the time.
"I knew Wild Blfl Hickok when he
was marshal of Fort Dodge, Kansas. I
met him once at Ogalala, Neb. Bill
was about six foot-one tail,- narrow
hipped, and supple as a panther. A
fine looking man, and one you'd pick
out of a crowd. Hickok differed from
Bill Cody, though. He was not a
ruthless killer?that is to say, he
didn't go looking for trouble, but when
it came his way he didn't sashay away
from it. *>
"He could get plenty cold in the
eye. His draw was like lightning.
And like many another two-gun man
of the Old West, he was always polite;
in fact, suave. I drank with bim
on a number of occasions. "Buffalo
Bill Cody killed in a*K defense.
Always Indians. He, too, wes
a fine specimen, as everyone knows.
I knew Cody well. The last time I
met him was 35 years ago 60t In Illinois."
Vatet was one of the first five white
men to . explore the interior of Dutch
GulanA in 1872. After that he sought
adventure in the Far West.
"Fanny thing, too," he remarked, _
"1 went to school in New York with
Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughae
of the supreme court. That wfif^hothe
old Tom Hunter school, .known as
'old 8K.' I was a few clsssss shshfl of ?him.
