WANTS MODERNIZINo.
The Naxos Emery Industry - Must
Have More Scientific Methods,

TldVo MOTo SCIeHtniC meLIlOQSs
Naxos, one of the largest and most
famous of the Cyclades islands Of
Greece, has from time immemorial
produced emery on large scale, but
times are changing, and unless re-
sort is had to scientific engineering,
the glory of the place will have fed.
Two villages have had the monopoly
of emery mining, and have sent out
daily about six hundred workmen,
who, in the most archaic fashion,
have set to work. The rock has
been exclusively broken up by fire,
the method being to clear space,
pile brushwood on it, light FIRE,
and, when the fire is dying out,
throw water on the glowing rock to
split it. Under such conditions only
the surface strata could be utilized,
but these are played out, and the
supply Of brushwood is played out
also. Experts who have been con-
suited by the Grecian government
have recommended the resort to sys-
tematic quarry borings, the use Of
powerful explosives, wire ropeways
and other familiar appliances. In
the meantime the Naxos industry is
practically at q standstill, and other
deposits elsewhere have things all
their own way, because they are
properly handled. 1t is said that in
the United States the development
of large corundum beds in North
Carolina is doing much to modify
the state of the industry.

Then he put the remainder under a

like hot rolls, and the lucky proprie-
tor of the specific was in fair way to
make fortune. But the police, who
in France are very active in protect

the matter and found that the powder
was nothing but ordinary sugar. They
also discovered that the case was con-

touched the bread the current was
turned on, and it was thus his death
was brought about. The man was
arrested at the fair of Abb.

A Word for Spanish Pindars.

To the Editor of Tic Nc'cs and Courier:
For the information Of your Bonneau
correspondent and others I will! say some
thing more about Spanish pindars.
l. They are certainly rs good for people
to eat as the old, common sort. Some
people think they are botter. l think
that most of the parched pindars sold in
the towns in Barnwell County by the
pindar venders are the Spanish, as be-
lieve that more Of them are planted in
this county than the old sort. planted
in my garden last year All ordinary size
garden square in the Spanish variety,
Just to boil, and that square furnished us
all and more than we could eat. and better
boiled pindars l never did eat, and have
been eating them all. my life. have
never met the man yet who could eat
more boiled pindars, well salted, than l
can, and may say parched pindars too,
as my friend Mr.J. d. Grimes, of Colston,
Barnwell County, can testify. The Ohio
man is right. Spanish pindars are good
to eat.
2. They do not impoversh the ground,
but improve it, even when pulled up,
pindars, vine and all, to be fed to stock.
This is the experience Of Capt. Leroy f.
Wilson, of Allenda!e, who has been
planning tnem Sleaully lOT Eoou iuduy
years, and plants them in preference to
the old sort. He thinks that tho reason,
or one reason, that they do not hurt the
land, being such tremendous bearers, is
that they shade the land so completely,
which is always great benefit to land.
When, however, tho pindars are not
pulled up, but left in tho field for the
hogs to root and fatten, the land must be
and is greatly improved by tho quantity
of vegetable matter that is left in the soil.
I have never herd any one say that
Spanish pindars arc injurious to the
ground, hut always tho other way.
There need bo no fear Of tham on this
ground.
8. The quantity Of them That can be
raised OH an acre will depend, like other
crops, on The strength, adaptability of the
soil, tho seasons and the thorcughness OF
the cultivation. I believe that l50 bush
els to the acre on ordinary land is not an
overestimate. Say seventy rows to the
acre and fifteen inches apart on the rows
would give 1GS bunches, every two of
which, it may be safely said, will turn
outs a quart Of pindars, which will give
"a bushels to the row. Seventy, the
number of rows in an acre. multiplied by
q bushels, the yield of one row, would

Valued His Farm More Highly.

They tell a story of q man who
came into Omaha one day and
wanted to trade his farm for city
lots. "All right" replied the real
estate agent; "get into my buggy,
and I'll drive you out to see some Of
the finest residence sites in the world
water, sewers, paved streets, ce-
ment sidewalks, electric light, shade
trees, and all that sort of thing, "
and away they drove four or five
miles into the country. The real
estate agent expatiated upon the
beauty of the surroundings, the
value of the improvements made
and projected, the convenience of
the location, the ease and speed
with which people who lived there
could reach town, and the certainty
of an active demand for such lots in
the immediate future. Then, when
he was breathless, he turned to his
companion and asked:
"Where's your farm?"
''We passed it coming out here,
was the reply. Its about two miles
nearer town. Chicago Record.

other vigorous denials came from the
