DAYS having been furnished by one
army emergency ration, which proved
both palatable and nourishing. For the
first few days we had sufticiency OF
chocolate and Brands meat lozenges to
sustain us, but the immersion in the
river turned these into pulp, and we
began to realize what semi-starvation
meant To carry water we had nothing
but small medicine bottle.
Reverting to our journey when we
became convinced that there was no
night train we determined to make our
way to waterfall Bowen, a distance of
one hundred miles, and endeavor to
complete the journey across the frontier
concealed in truck. Obtaining food en-
route from Kafflrs we eventually reach
ed our goal and were fortunate enough
to be able to squeeze in underneath the
tarpauin of a truck destined for Lou
reno Marquee. When morning came
we enjoyed the sensation of realizing
that we were bowling along the line to-
wards Portuguese territory. Next day
the truck was coupled to down train,
and at 9;20 a. m. we found ourselves
over the Komati bridge and few sec
onds later past the white pillar which
denotes the boundary between Trans
and Portuguese territory. Safe at
lastr was all that we could eXclaim
We had not not toiled and suffered and
trudged in vain.

Andre W Carnegie on Trusts.

A director of the Standard Oil Com
pany has recently published in The In
dependent an article declaring trusts TO
be good for the working man. To the
May Century, Andrew Carnegie of the
Carnegie Company, which rivals the
Standard Oil for first place among the
worlds great corporations, will contli-
butte an essay taking the same ground.
In this article, which bears the title
Popular Illusions about Trusts, the
great steel manufacturer argues that the
evils of trusts are generally self correct.
i've; that no trust can live long unless 1t
secures a virtual monopoly Of the COM
modify il deals in; and that 1.-The only
people who have reason to fear trusts
are those who trust them. In the
same magazine THE Real Danger OF
Trusts"-their menace to the independ.
ence of the individual and the state
will be pointed out in vigorous edi'
torial.

Beet roots need air as well as water,
and both of these are supplied more
bountifully in loose than in compact
or baked soils. The water will percolate
down, surrounding soil particles, and
what is not used finds its way down
through small openings that were made
by the decay of roots from previous
crops, and is deposited in a subterraneous
reservoir to await the dry season. When
droughts prevail the water trapped by
the loose surface is pumped up by capil'
larry attraction to within reach of the
roots but here stops, the capillary tubes
being too large in the surface soil to car
nv it further and surface evaporation II
prevented. Thus beets, If properly cul
tivated, may be kept fresh, green ant
growing throughout a severe drought.

Governor Pingree is quoted as saying
THAT the hope of the people is the Demo

from a man who has palmed himself of

four years. The blunderbuss has spok-

TO the Democrat party the sooner he VIII
