Herewith we present No. 2 of the
series of rebuses. To the boy or girl
under 16 years of age, whose parents
or any member of the family is a
Union subscriber, who correctly
solves the six riddles a cash prize of
$2, will be paid. The answers from
competitors must reach the Union
Hitching the Snn.
Electric power from sunlight ap
pears more wonderful than harnessing
the streams or wind. Yet we know
something of the past heat of the sun.
Solar engines for operating pumps
have been in use in different parts of
the earth for several years now, and
their value in warm climates where
the number of days of clear sunshine
average high, must steadily increase.
One of the most successful of these
solar machines is located near Los
Angeles to irrigate fruit land. An
automatic stand carrying great reflect
ors follows the course of the sun as
regularly as the best telescope ever
made, and sun's the rays are thus re
flected on a central point, where the
boiler of a small engine is located.
Within an hour after sunrise the heat
of the sun raises the tempreature of
the water to the boiling point and
thus creates steam, and the pumping
machinery begins its day's work and
keeps it up until sundown.
The power of the sun for heating
has only been faintly appreciated by
scientists in the past, but the predic
tion is made now that if all the coal
should give out we would soon be able
to run much of our machinery from
the power of the sun. With 500 mir
rors properly arranged to focus the
rays upon one point, a temperature of
more than a thousand degrees has
been obtained. This almost equals
one-fifth the highest temperature re
corded by the electric furnace, which
is considered today the most powerful
heating apparatus ever discovered.
As there is no limit to the number of
mirrors that may be employed and as
the intensity of the heat, increases in
proportion to the number of rays re
flected by the mirrors, it is conceiv
able that a temperature may be ob
tained in time that will surpass any
thing ever dreamed of in the past or
present.
Hitching the sun to turn electric
motors for furnishing light and power
for our homes and factories is the
very latest achievement of the modern
work of harnessing the elements to do
man's work and one square yard of
sunshine in the tropics may represent
on the average one horse bower.

Now Regulations as to Settlers.
In order that all settlers on lands
restored to the public domain may be
placed on an equal footing the secre
tary of the interior has adopted new
regulations for the restoration of
lands.
Heretofore, when lands withdrawn
for forest or reclamation purposes
again opened to settlement insid
ers received advance information
which they turned to profit. They se
cured this information from agents in
Washington, who wired them as soon
as the orders of the interior depart
ment had been approved. These
orders would be mailed to land offi
cials and would not be public for
several days. Meanwhile the persons
notified by wire would place agents on
the choice tracts.
Under the new regulations, notice
will be printed in at least one news
paper near the land for sixty days
prior to the opening. The regulations
also direct that alleged rights based
upon occupation before the date for
the opening will not be recognized. It
is land syndicates that have chiefly
benefited by advance information.
