President Plant, OF the Plant system OF
steamship and railway lines. has chartered

A LIGHTER OF COTTON ABLAzR.

Eighty-five Bales Damaged at the
Merchants and Miners Wharf
Yesterday afternoon a fire broke out at
the wharf Of the Merchants and Miners
Transportation Company. II started in
some cotton on lighter No. 10 which was
moored to the wharf. There were eighty
five bales on the lighter, aud before the fire
department arrived the cotton was pretty
badly damaged.
The lighter was moored at the wharf
Wednesday morning and had lain there
ever since. The cotton was originally
booked for the British steamship Saint
Hubert's cargo, but was shut out and was
shipped via the Baltimore line for Liver
pool
The loss will approximate IS or Sc per
bale and il covered by insurance.
The timber ends aud the matches Of the
lighter were more or less charred The
origin Of the fire is unknown but is supposed
to have been from friction spark from a
pile driver which was working just ahend
of the lighter, the heavy westerly wind
blowing the spark into the cotton and
tanning it into flame.

A MODEL DAIRY FARM.
A Business That Ought to be Profit

Business That Ought to be Profit
able In Savannah.
Considering the immense demand for
fresh milk and butter in Savannah il 10 sur
prising how few are the number OF dairy
farms In the neighborhood Of the city and
on what small scale the business is con-
Quoted by the few who have gone into it.
1t certainly looks az il Savannah should sup
port dozen 1rst-class diaries.
AS it is now nearly all the butter used In
this oity comes from Tennessee and New
York. There has been some Developments
in the business OF late, however. Mr.
Charles Gibbes is q young man who believes
that a flrst-class dairy farm near Savannah
will pay, and be has determined to make
this his business Mr.. Qibbes has been
engaged In dairying but few months, but
he has accomplished as much il not more
same time near Savannah. He has large
place about three miles from the city on the
Thunderbolt road. which he has stocked
with about seventy-five head OF cattle. He
has about sixty milch cows, mostly of the
Jersey breed, which are kept entirely for
their milk. The Improvement In Mr..
Gibbes' farm over most other dairy
farms 10 in the facilities for caring
for the cattle and for keeping everything
clean 30 as TO prevent contamination of the
milk by the presence Of filth. His barn is
140 feet long by "a feet wide, with stalls on
each side. The floor is raised three feet
from the ground and the provisions for
drainage are almost perfect. Wafer is sup
piled from an artesian we'll, and after every
milking the place is thoroughly cleaned out,
all the filth being drained off through
wooden trenches. The milk Ia kept In q
house apart from the barn, SO as to dimin-
ish the possibility OF contamination by alb.

Mr.. Gibbes has great many improve,
ments he intends TO make, but he is satisfied
| that he has now the best equipped dairy
farm around Savannah and he would be
| glad to have his friends come out and takt

FOSSIL FORESTS.


silicined stuinps OF Trees Which Bloomed
Thousauds Of Years Ago.
These standing silicified stumps
and fallen trees were found varying
in diameter from ono to seven feet,
says writer in the Popular Scienco
Monthly Two sections OF trees were
found SO perfect that the rings OF
annual growth throughout could be
counted, except u few, fifteen or
twenty, near the. heart and bark.
One tree measuring three feet in
diameter. had 222 rings OF growth;
and another OF three feet five inches
in diameter, had 243--this without
any allowance for few missing rings
Mt the center and toward the bark.
The larger of these trees was only
about half tho size OF the largest
seen Many were found varying In
diameter from five to seven feet, but
none OF this size was seen exposing
the rings throughout the entire sec.
tion. Judging from the closeness of
the rings In certain well-preserved
portions OF these larger trees many
of them must have been at least 500
years in attaining their growth, If the
rings were truly annual. Taking
one-half this number, $50 years. rs
the more probable age of tho sue
cessive forests at this point. IL Is
seen that the earliest OF these trees
we're living more than 2,001 before
the last, during which time there
we're alternating conditions of growth
and accumulation OF volcanic ma
terial. This estimate makes no
allowance for the time necessary for
the formation OF a soil upon the vol
canic material, which at first sight
would seem necessary for the support
of such vigorous vegetation. 1t is
not probable. however, that any con-
siderable time was necessary for this
purpose, for. with rare exceptions.
each succeeding forest took root and
began to grow very promptly after
the destruction OF its predecessor.
In most cases tho destroying flood
consisted of mud, ashes. conglomcr-
ate. and other volcanic material,
which formed an excellent bass for
vegetation. and 1t was doubtless
covered with u luxuriant growth us

The extraordinary spell Of dry
weather in London this season, which
was yet unbroken ten days ago, en-
tirely eclipscs all previous records
there. Up to june II the drought
had lasted 1902 days, A days longer
than any drought in the last 20 years,
During the whole period the total rain
fall in London was rather less than
nine tenths of an inch. The weather
observed in London has been fairly
representative of the conditions prev
alent over the south Of England gen
orally. The average person has re.
joiced in the unusual spell of glor-
ious weather. but it has brought great
disaster on the agriculturists.

Tho distinguished professor Of e1-
detrimental mechanics at Steven. in
stitute, Prof. j. Il. Denton, says that
the ultimate rate Of speed in railway
travel is within measurable distance.
Speed may be increased, but not
very greatly. Tho reasons for this are
various. A simple engineering rule
demonstrates that about 100 to $50
pounds Of force is necessary to move
car weighing, say, thirty tous, and
as the speed increases the resistance
offered by the train increases at GER
tain ratio, naturally necessitating
more and more force To overcome the
resistance and maintain the speed
Many material difficulties confront
us at every fresh attempt at increased
speed. doubt whether they car be
overcome to any great extcnt.-Ihitd-
