NO NEED TO SHIP IT AWAY
Mills of Columbus to Consume Entire
Receipts.

If Americas exhibited the en- terprise
of Columbus in the manner of building
cotton mills she would, in short time,
consume every bale of cotton market
ed at our warehouses, the mills paying
quarter to half cent more for it
than would the exporter. Americas
people who oppose the building of a
cotton mill here might be interested in
learning that the new cotton mill of
the Columbus Manufacturing Com
pany on North Highlands has begun
to buy its stock of cotton preparatory
to beginning operations in April, when
the electric power which will turn it's
spindles will be ready. The mill has
just purchased several hundred bales
of cotton. With the two new cotton
mills in the field next fall, Columbus
cotton market will be very lively, for
the local cotton mills will then con-
sumo some so, 900 bales annually, prac-
tically fve-sixths of the warehouse
receipts.

HE MYsTIF1ED THE MULTITUDE
Boone Found Hidden Key and Secured
Letter,

A multitude of people, numbering
several thousand, witnessed yesterday
the wonderful mind-reading feat oil
Prof. Boone, of the Boone Yaki Co. in
finding, blindfolded, a hidden post.
office key and fitting it to the right
lock box at the postoffice.
In all it's details the feat wss really
wonderful.
Six citizens, Messrs. a. E. Allen,
Crawford Wheatley, S. Ell. Mckee, j.
A. Davenport, George Oliver and 81.
G. Mitchell accompanied Prof. Boone
IN his wild drive over the city.
These gentlemen first drove out g
half mile and concealed postofice key
under q carpet in the home of Mr..
John T. Taylor. They had previously
addressed letter to Mayor J. B. Eel
der, which was placed in lock box 121,
the address of course being unknown
Boone.
Accompanied by the six young men
Boone, blindfolded, drove the CARR
age to the Taylor home, found the key,
returned to the postoffice, got the letter
and gave it to Mr., Fielder.
But wonderful as this seems it was
surpassed by many feats performed al
the opera house.
There, last night, the young man
who for two days and nights has slum-
bered in hypnotic state in Duncan &
show window, viewed by thousands,
was aroused in the presence of the
audience and seemed none the worse
for his lengthy siesta.
Many very wonderful hypnotic feats
were performed last night, to the de.
light of hundreds of spectators. The
company, with change of programme,
will appear again tonight.

DROPPED EIGHT POINTS LOWER.
Backbone of Cotton Market Is Still
Fractured.

The advent of another week brought
no stability to the cotton market,
which continues to drag at an even
lower level. May contracts opened
yesterday at 8:49 and closed at $3.50 to
$40 loss of nine or ten points. If
Southern spot holders show a DISPOSE
ton to sell at present prices, and some
do, the chances are that the market
may yet break 8 cents. Few sales of
spot cotton were made IN Americas

farmers say about Pages Fertiliz-
ing Salt:
From H. II. Eaton, Morrisville, vt.

From H. H. Eaton, MOrrisville, vt.
Used 1900 lbs. on three acres of oats last
spring, Think it more than doubled the
crop, and the straw did not rust particle.
Think money invested therein will pay
more than double and that it is one of the
best fertilizers can get.
From L. G. Terrill, johnson, vt.
Mixed ton of salt, barrels of lime, two
barrels OF leached, and barrels OF un:
leached ashes, and sOwed on five acres OF
oats. Could see a decided Improvement
over the acre that had none of the mixture,
Think it paid me fully twice its cost.
From A. W. Edwards, Jacksonville, VT.
SOwed 5000 lbs. on 10 acres of very poor.
badly run Out-land. Used no manure.
ThTeshed out 367 bushels oats, and there
were several wasted by a severe storm just
before harvest, Think the use of salt gives
more grain and better quality. Gives good
results on dry land.
From A. c. Davis. Hyde Park.
Sowed half ton of your salt on two acres
of ground. Ground not in good condition.
Had raised two crops before on same land
with very little manure. Result, a good crop
of oats, and the oats weighed more than
80 lbs, to the bushel. Think salt good for
dry, light soil. Shall use more next season.
From A. L. Jennings, WOlcOtt Vt
Have used the salt for killing paint-brush.
1t has always killed wherever used for that
purpose,
From L. NJ. Davis, johnson, vt,
SOwed half a ton on two and a half acres
of land last season and received as good
oats as / did when used 10 loads of manure
to the acre. Shall use two tons this year.
From James Atwell Eden, Vt.
Used salt on old meadow land that had
moved 70 years, then plOwed and sowed to
oats without manure. Got 81 bushels of oats
from two bushels sowing.
