THOSE Wonderful Seeds.

Some time ago we noticed the
iacc tint 4 1leW.tuse had been
discovered q for cotton seed.
Since we mentioned the foct
that an extra sweet brand OF
sugar could be extracted from
cotton seed, it has transpired
that rubber can be manufact-
ured from crude cotton seed oil.
The discoverer Of the method
keeps the process a secret be-
cause Of it's exceeding simplici-
|! ty. He discovered the method
by accident. This much is
known: 10 per cent. of real rub
Der is added to the crude oil,
and this, by the unknown pro
cess, makes 4 rubber which tile
experts cannot tell from genuine
rubber. Rubber is exceedingly
valuable. New uses for rubber
are discovered every day, and
each new use increases its val
ne. The trees which yield the
rubber gum are Of slow growth
and must sooner OF later, be-
come exhausted. Rubber must
keep on increasing in value.
Cotton seed will become more
and more valuable as the man
ufacture Of rubber from it is de-
veloped. Crude cotton oil costs
about S135 q ton, while rubber
is worth 50, 900 a ton.
Our advice to the farmers is
to turn their attention to the de-
veloping Of some kind Of cotton
which will be exceedingly pro-
Life Of seed, for the seed will
before long be many times more
valuable than the lint.
King cotton is being dethroned
and soon Prince Cotton Seed
Will ascend the throne. - Colasm-

y Don't forget the meeting call
ed Tor the afternoon Of the 3Oth,
to nominate town officers. We
have reached q point now in the
history Of our town when every
citizen should feel interested in
its welware. We eare now on the
upgrade, and the opportunity
is ripe for doing something to
build up our industries and in
vite population. Much depends
on the selection Of our town Of
ticers Come, then, to the meet
ing on the afternoon Of the 30th.
And, just here, we would re-
mind our people that there are
few towns whose financial stand
ing will compare with Benefits
vile, and SO strong is the conf
dence that our worthy Mayor
met with no difficulty in floating
the Indebtedness, and with strict
economy and systematic man
agement every dollar Of interest
has been paid on the bonded
debt, and two Of the bonds have
been retired. We are not blow

show the Importance Of selecting
ourrepresentativemen. Selfish

An Artificial India Rubber.

About eight years ago the hydrocarbon
"isoprene," which had previously been
identified among The products of the de
discovered among the volatile compounds
obtained by the action of moderate heat
upon oil of turpentine. Isoprene can be re-
converted into true elastic rubber by the
action of strong acids, such as muriatic
DR.. Tilden who originally made the dis
covery referred to- not long ago produced
from turpentine a quantity of isoprene,
which after being kept for few weeks be-
came thick and sirupy, with Jumps of
hard, elastic substance floating in it.
These Jumps proved to be true rubber, and
are supposed to have been formed by the
accidental presence OF acetic or formic acid
in the solution. This rubber appears to be
analogous in every respect to the natural
product, and is equally susceptible of vul-
caniZation.
The discovery has been followed by ex-
periments to ascertain the feasibility of
manufacturing rubber from turpentine on
a commercial scale. An interesting field
for experiments has been opened up by
this discovery, for if, as is possible, other
resins are similar susceptible of CONVEX
sion into elastic compounds, products pos
sessing properties of peculiar value may be
developed, and in any case the dearth of
rubber which has existed for some time in
consequence of the wholesale destruction
of rubber forests is likely to give no fur

What the Interpreter Found Out.

A strange looking man was placed in
the dock charged with being drunk and in
capable. When addressed by the magis-
trates he mumbled some incoherent moth
ings and stared vacantly about the court.
One of the justices, suggesting that the
man was foreigner, spoke to him in Ger
man, but this the accused did not seem TO
understand.
1t was then decided, as no interpreter
was present, to send to another court for a
well known warrant officer who speaks five
European tongues. On his arrival this
officer endeavored to make the prisoner
understand his position, trying him with
sentences in several different languages,
but all to no purpose, until he finally came
to the conclusion that the man must be
English. He then put the simple question,
Are you an Englishman?" and amid q
roar of laughter came the answer, Yes"
The accused, it afterward transpired, had
slight impeachment in his speech, and was
also a trif1e deaf.-London Tit-Bits.

His first and last duties are to explore
the stage and notice all sources of danger,
such as wings, traps or openings for stage

Eucalyptus Oil.

The virtues of eucalyptus oil, which
came into such favor in this country dur
ing the influenza epidemic, were found out
in a singular way. A General Stratton
planted fifty-five acres near Haywards,
in California, in 1869. chiefly for timber
purposes. In 1888 it was discovered that a
decoction of the leaves would remove the
incrusted scales from boilers. While the
engineers were preparing the liquid they
imagined the odor cured one of bronchitis
and the other of asthma, and they started
factory to extract the oil at San Lorenzo.
Considerably over 10000 pounds of the oil
have been sent to England from California
in one year.-Yankee Blade.

And through the slumberous golden noon,

Here at the threshold of the June.
At dawn the robins matin song

And while its changes still prolong,
The Angelus rings clear and strong
From out myriad yellow Threats;
Then, as the daylight wakes dim,
The wood dove coos its vesper hymn.

The lark at noon, at dark the dove
