"No, boys, it amt money that makes
my pockets bulge out that way, but it
is the equivalent, remarked gray

lot of time digging little trenches and
turning water this way and that, but it
was disappointing to go out the next
day and find that had been irrigating
a mole hole. set watch on the little
pests, and 1 soon learned their habits.
Since then it is no trouble at all to get
them.
In the first place, found that a
mole never comes straight up TO the top
of the ground, but always on slant,
and you will see the ground agitated for
some time before he throws up his hill.
If you step within 90 feet of him when
he comes to the top, he will instantly
stop work and run. It's no use to try
TO catch him then
but mole is the victim of habit
If he is disturbed at his work at 2
o'clock today, he will not come back till
exactly 2 o'clock tomorrow. You can
set watch by him and depend on its
being right. Well, 1 watch around in
my berry patch and take the time when
ever disturb Mr. Mole. The next day,
when it is time for him to come back, l
take my station near the hole. AS soon
as he throws up his little mound plant
my foot behind him and close up the
hole. Then all have to do is to SCOOP
him out Of the dirt and drop him into
my pocket, kicking and scratching like q

SOUTHERN COMPETITION.

Mr.. Richard II. Edmonds, editor OF
the Baltimore Manufacturers Record,
writes very interesting and suggestive
article In the last Issue of that paper
concerning the Southwark trend of cot
ton manufacturing. Referring to the
decision OF some of the largest cotton
mill companies OF New England, two
years ago. to build mills in this section,
he says this was not more significant Of
the destiny of the South as the CONTROL.
ing power in cotton manufacturing than
the action taken few days ago by the
Lawrence Manufacturing Company Of
Lowell, Massachusetts.
This company has for years been en-
gagged in manufacturing ooarse cotton
goods and hosiery, with capital OF
S1,5oo,ooO and 1905 spindles. The
competition of the South in the line OF
sheetiDg and coarse cotton goods has
been 80 close that few days ago the
directors of the company voted to stop
this branch of the work and continue
only the manufacture OF hosiery.
After commenting on this, and the
great increase of cotton manufacturing
in this ecsion, with tho nearness OF the
cotton and the cheapness OF labor, the
Record, in conclusion, says: "Is is only
another demonstration OF the unequalled
advantages of this section for msnufac-
turing-.dyan.age which have brought
about the fulhllmens Of our predictions
in regard to iron making, as we'll ga in
regard to cotton manufacturing, and of
many other lines of industry, as we'll as
of immigration. The South's day Is at
last dawnipg."

big beer glass, and without taking it
from his lips he swallowed the contents,
not even deigning to take drink of

prised, merely remarking that the fell
low would probably take several such
drinks before he finished the evening. 3"
