MANY Wonder.

Many wonder how it is that
pin worms and stomach worms
get into little children, or how a
tape worm 300 feet long, can get
IN and exist and grow inside of a
man, as it sometimes happens.
They NAV we'll wonder, for it is
a great mystery. However,
many now know from experience
that Mothers Worm Syrup will
rid one of intestinal worms and
greatly improve the health after
the worms have been destroyed
and expelled. 1t is absolutely
a harmless remedy to take, and
as it only costs Is cents, all
should try it who suspect worms
to be the cause of their i'll health.

Florida for several years now,
with highly satisfactory results,
both for starch purposes and
stock feeding. 1t thrives best on
moderately fertile soil, and pos
sesses great Notwithstanding
power, very much surprising
corn in this respect. 1t will
thrive, according to DR.. Stock
bridge, as far north as Macon,
Ga, and over the States of Mis-
sissippi, Louisiana and Texas,
where killing frosts do not come
too early, say before the middle
of October.
AS tothe yield, the experiment
al station of Florida gives an av-
erage of SIX and half tons per
acre, in dry season and on poor
est soil; experiments carried on
in Georgia, show a yield of twelve
tons, but from his own expe-
rience Mr.. Menelas thinks it sa-
fer to calculate on about six tons
on average soil.
The casava is distinctly a
starch-formIng crop, or fat form
er, and when properly used be-
comes one of the most economical
heat and fat-forming articles of
food for all classes of animals,
human beings included. 1t pre-
sents marked characteristics of
both potatoes and sugar beets,
but contains very much more
total food, because of it's greater
solldity and smaller content of
water. All things considered,
casava comes nearer supplying
a perfect ration for farm stock
than any other concentrated
food. For domestic use, boiled or
fried, it is a most nutritious sub
stitute for either sweet or Irish
potatoes; if dried by means OF
the sun, oven or evaporator, and
sliced with a roOt-cutter, and
then reduced to -four by grinding,
it is a palatable substitute for all
cereals, fours and meals, and
may be used by itself or as an
admixture with products OF
ground grains.
For stock feed casava posses
ses a larger amount of tat-form-
ing material than is found in any
other staple crop, but to secure

the best results a small quantity

the best results a small quantity
of cotton seed meal, COW peas or
velvet beans should be mixed
with it. Farmers who will grow
casava can fatten all the meat
they have, and can have more
meat and more butter than they
can possibly get from any other
food.
Mr.. Menelas is convinced that
the starch factories of the future
will depend on the casaya plant,
as the cost of production is only
about one-fourth as much as corn.
An acre yielding forty bushels of
corn, would produce l, ,200pounds
of starch, while an acre of casava,
producing six tons, would make
2, 400 pounds of starch. Howev-
er, he advises Southern farmers
to raise casava for their stock,
instead of starch. At his Brook
haven farm he planted half an
acre April So and May 5, last
spring. In spite of six weeks
dry weather it came up nicely af-
ter the first rain, and by October
was four to five feet high, with a
monstrous yield of tubers-at
least six tons per acre, but he has
left them in the ground to be fed
to stock as needed.
In conclusion, Mr.. Menelas
says: "Many and expensive ex-
periments have been made at our
place in the past, but none has
promised as good results as the
casava, and / conscientiously
urge planters to give casava a
fair trial, on a small scale at first.
| consider this plant one of the
most valuable in the States
where it can grow, and if your
paper, which is doing so much
for the development of the South
and the country generally, will
take the matter in hand, l firmly
expect to see casava occupy
among our crops even a higher
place in value than the corn crop.
All our stock-swine, horses,
sheep and fowl-will be all the
better forit." /"
The Department Of Agricul-
ture at Washington will furnish
all the literature necessary on
the subject, and the seed can be
had of the Florida experiment
statlon-at least, that IS where
Mr.. Menelas got his.

Menelas, of Jackson, Says it May
Supersede Corn.

Twice as Much Fat Producing
Food For Animals as Does the
Great American Cereal.

Some time ago the Scimitar
published in the shape of spec
iH1 dispatch from New Orleans a
statement of the success attained
by one of Mississippi agricultu-
fists who had made crop of
casava.
On it's face the item of news
had not the aspect of sensation;
but the interest it has excited in
Memphis and in all the surround-
ing country is intense. Mr..
Will LaCroix, leading stock
dealer of the city, was SO much
interested that he wrote to the
Mississippi people for more in
formation, and it has since been
learned that great numbers Of
letters Of the same character
have poured into Jackson, show-
ing that the planters of the
South have been quick to recog-
nize the value of the suggestion
contained in the item of news.
Conforming with the wide
spread desire for further infor-
nation about the unique plant
the Scimitar's Jackson corre-
spondent forwards this addi.
tional dispatch, which goes into
the subject in greater detail;
Jackson, Miss, Nov. 16.-Mr.
C. Menelas, of this city, who is
quite extensively engaged in
farming on the intensive system
near Brook haven, Lincoln county,
and who does a great deal of ex-
perimenting with new plants
that promise great food returns
for man and beast, has been
overwhelmed with letters of in
quiry from all over the South and
West, and which have caused
him no little worry. Mr.. Men
elias is busy man, and finds
that he has not the time to reply
to all these letters concerning ca
sava culture, though he would
like to do so. For that reason he
has made a more extended state
ment of the virtues of the casava,
telling all those things most of
his correspondents seem to want
to know, but quoting first from
DR.. Stockbridge, director of the
Florida experimental station, a
description of the'plant:
Casava is tropical plant. 1t
served as the chief article OF diet
for the aborigines of the West
Indian islands, Central and South
America, and is served at pres
ent three timesa day at the ta-
bles of the wealthiest as well as
poorest men of Brazil and other
South American states.
The plant grows luxuriantly to
the height of five or six feet,
with many branches of dark
green, reddish leaf; the stalk is
covered with nodes from which
the next generation of plants is
obtained, as is the case with
sugar cane. 1t is planted in hills
four feet apart each way. Un-
der favorable conditions the
growth is rapid and luxuriant,
but it is the underground roots
that give the plant the real value.
The roots are attached to the
stalk and are usually from one to
three inches in diameter, and
from one to two feet long, as
TIE result eff one years growth.
They consist of white solid tis-
sue, harder and drier than pota-
toes, and contain large quanty-
ty of starch.
Casava has been cultivated in

6RIVMPHS OVER AIR.

NJ. Santos-Dumont' immediate OBJ
ject has been to win the prize of 100,-
600 francs offered year ago by NJ.
Deutsch, the Rouen petroleum refner.
The conditions required that a start
be made in the neighborhood of st.
Cloud, that the Eiffel tower be circled
three times, and that the airship then
return to its starting place at an aver
age sped of not less than thirteen
miles an hour
More than one inventor has been
struggling under this incentive Hence
NJ. Santos-Dumont has been working
at the greatest speed lest he be fore
stalled, and he undertook the test at
the earlist moment. He has already
discovered several possible improve
ments which will increase the mo-
bility and safety Of the airship. Tbs
Deutsch prize amounts to $4,000 in
United States money.
