ADDRESS
To the Farmers of Sum-
NIT County.
Akron Canning COMPANY Makes Ap-
peal That Interests Them.
Akron, o., Feb. 90, 1900.


TO the Farmers of Summit County:
We are meeting with good success in
securing the necessary acreage for our
canning factory to be located at New
Portage, o., vet are still short the nee
essary number of acres to insure us
complete success in its operation.
We feel that every farmer in Summit
county should take personal interest
in this new project, as it is home con-
cern, backed by home capital, consum-
ing the home products Of the home far
mers.
1t opens up ready market for crop
grown with more profit at less expense
and with less labor than either Indian
corn or wheat.
Your price is assured you in advance
under contract. With this crop you
are not subject to the fluctuations and
uncertainty Of prices to be realized us
from crop of Indian corn or wheat.
No binder twine, no threshing, but a
ready market, q quick return, and n
price positively guaranteed you in ad-
| vance.
The most prosperous farming COM
munities of New York and Ohio are
those In which are located the canning
Industries, with no better soil, no bet
| ter farmers, and no less favorable con-
ditions than exist in Summit county.
Our progressive farmers, who arc seek
Ing to diversity their crops, add more
to their profits and better their condi-
tions, should grasp these opportunities
when they present; give them the en-
couragement they deserve, and espe-
cially so when it comes as clean bus
mess proposition. We ask no dona-
tlons or money. We simply ask you to
plant for lis a number of acres of sweet
corn the coming season, which we
agree to buy, and pay for It a stipulat-
cd price. Next season, when we have
ascertained the possibilities of this
growing section, we will add other
crops to our list and increase our ca
pacity, until we will be able to con-
sumo almost any good crop Of vegeta-
bles that you can raise. But we can
never do this until you give us the nee
essary acreage for startr to furnish
us a canning product for the first year.
Do not hesitate. If only a, few acres
it will help, and your experience will
enable you to increase IT largely next
season. ,4o.i
We have met with splendid success
thus far, and many farmers have real
lied the great advantage that this pro
ject presents, and the possibilities oi
the future. To those who give us tn,
, encouragement now, we will extnd oul
contracts in the future. We trust yol
will give this matter full and careful
consideration. Write us. We will b,
glad to answer any questions on th'
subject, and later when one of ou
representatives calls on you, give hin
| as many acres as you can for the com
l ing season and in the future We will
remember your assistance to this pi
, oneer industry of Summit county.
YOU desire,and will so indicate, we vii
\ call on you at once.
s Respectfully yours,
AKRON CANNING COMPANY.

Fine Art Practiced by the Soldiers Now
 in South Africa.
 Frequent mention is made in the dis. patches of war correspondents of shell-dodging, and the average read CT is at first at loss to understand the precise meaning of the words, un- til their constant repetition leads one to believe that probably it is possible to see shells in their aerial flight, and consequently the soldiers are able to dodge them. A sergeant major of ar tillery, who has seen some active serv- ice all over the world, gives us some information about the true art In all only seen three or four shells actually in the air, and they came from the gun he himself fred He explained that there are few guns with a somewhat slow muzzle velocity, and the men fir ing these can sometimes catch 8 glimpse of the shells in their flight; but it would be impossible for any man to see a shot coming toward himself. Dodging shells is done by getting un- der cover immediately before a gun is actually fred For instance said the sergeant major, if I were climbing a hill. at the top of which gun was di- rected against me, I could tell exactly when a shell was likely to come bound ing along. Before the order is given to fire the men in charge of the piece stand clear. and that is the warning note, so to speak. Keep your weather eye on the gun directed against you, and when the gunners stand clear you dodge the shot,

REPUBLICS ONLY IN NAME.
Latin-American Countries Are Governed
 Upon DespotIc Lines.


 "Only in name does republication exist in the countries of South Am erica, says southern business man who recently returned from a tour of the Latin-American countries. "The Latin republics are the worst apologies for republics in the entire calendar of free states. Affairs in these republics are becoming better of late, but it is the simplest thing in the world to pro- yoke a revolution. We are all familiar with the changes of government that have taken place within the IaBt de- cade, but few understand how easy it has been, and still is in some of these republics, to precipitate a rebellion turn ruler out of office, upset a gov ernment, and create general anarchy. l was in one of these republics some years ago, when revolution, or rather an attempt at revolution, occurred, for 1t was not a genuine success. [ was, with friend, about to go to breakfast when party of about twenty men ap- peared in the street along which we were passing. About the same number of men came into sight from an op- posite direction and the fun began. Every man had cloak over his shoul- ders, though the weather was oppres- , sively warm, and when they sighted each other the cloaks were thrown aside a4ad more brass medals, rainbow tinted ribbons, red sashes and other gorgeous insignia of something or oth- CT I never saw. They began firing at each other, and soon the street was filled with a multitude of troops and about an equal number of revolution ists. The government troops dispersed the rebels on this occasion, and when we left in the afternoon for our respec- tive locations, the same national flags that were flying at sunrise were still hanging at their staffs. It was on this occasion Q bleodless and futile revoIu- tion, and people went about their busi- ness on the next day with the same composure and contempt for one party or the other as they had on the day before the opera bouffe rebellion"

MYSTIC MESSAGE OF SORROW.
Chicago Man Mysteriousiy Learns of
 His Brothers Death In Manila

His Brothers Death In Manila
 A mystic message brought sad intel. ligence to Frank Fay Pratt of Chicago one day last week. It told him of the death Of his twin brother, Fred Roe Pratt, which occurred in Manila. Frank was sitting down to dinner in his home in Chicago when suddenly the impression entered his mind that his brother had died. He could not tell whence the knowledge came, all he knew was that his brother was dead. He told his parents of his belief. of his knowledge, of the sad event, and then he hurried into the streets, where he walked up and down for hours, bur dened with his grief. Three days later came eablegram from Manila, telling that Fred Roe Pratt, who had been voyaging around the world, was dead and that his body was on q steamer bound for Japan. Fred left Chicago ill December 1893, in the company of a friend to make tour of the world. It was their intention to visi. nearly all the oriental countries, winding up in Australia. They had already visited China, Japan, Singapore and other places. Fred was born in Chicago and had praetieed law with his brother un- til he started on this trip. The simi- larity between the twin brothers was so marked and striking that the first thought on seeing them together was to doubt ones eyesight. Not only in features and stature were they coun- terparts, but in actions, expression and general bearing also.
