SUGAR CANE RAISING.

Mr.. E. w. Nance, one Of our
county's most progressive farmers,
was caller at the Times Office

In q large acreage of sugar cane

citizenship with this staple article

proven faily successful in this
country, yieldlng.from two to four
hundred gallons Of syrup to the
acre, which readily sells for fifty
and sixty cents per gallon. Then
why not devote more of our farm
ing lands to it instead of buying
our sugar and syrup from other
statesg At Lexington, Holmes
county, "a company has been formed

A GROWING INDUSTRY

The Kosciusko Cotton Mills
have ordered machinery to double
their capacity and will erect cot
tages in proportion to accommodate
the operators. Prospects are ex-
ceedingly bright for this enter
prise and their products are pro-
nounced by Eastern experts as
superior to any manufactured in
the South. Increasein the machin-
cry OF the Koscuisko Mills is the
best possible evidence that it is a
paying institution, as stockholders
seal celY ever increase their hold
ings, where loss seems imminent.
1t also shows that the field for cot
ton mills is not overcropped, and
there is still room for the Lexing
ton plant. Lexington Advertiser.

DENOUNCED.

Senator Money made a strong
attack on the oleomargarine bill
pending In the senate. He de-
nounced the measure as being
unconstitutional, immoral. DIS
honest, and unjust" In this, as
in all other measures, Mr.. Money
is fighting the battles of the great
mass of working people. The
purpose of the pending bill seems
to be to drive out the oleomarga-
rine and butterine industry for
the benefit of the dairy interest.

DUMONT TAKES A TRIP.
a Gale Arose and He Had Trouble in
Landing.

New York, Feb. 13--Between showers
this afternoon, NJ. Santos-Dumont made
a fourth '-sortie'' from his aerodrome
with his air ship, cables the Monte Car
10 correspondent of the Herald.
At , o'clock the rain having ceased for
q moment, the aeronaut sailed away in
the direction OF Cape Martin, being pre-
coded by two boats from the Prince of
Monaca's yacht, the Princess Alice and
followed by a steam launch commanded
by the prince.
Half way between the aerodrome and
Cape Martin, the sky becoming cloudy
and the wind suddenly rising, the aeron-
aut wheeled about and returned to the
Port D'HercuIe, where the occupants Of
the steam launch were able to seize the
guide rope at 2:35 o'clock, and conduct
the air ship near the aerodrome-
The manuveurs then became very diff
ficult Some of the suspension wires
had been broken and the prince had his
arm bruised by the guide rope, which
weighs so kilogrammes, sweeping rapid
ly over the stern of the steam launch
When the air ship was ten metres
from shore the guide rope was passed
from the steam launch to a small boat
and then to workmen on the jetty.
This is the longest trip NJ Santos-Du-
mont has accomplished, both as to time
and distance
After the landing had been accomn-
lished the prince received M. Santos

aut various plans for landing maneuv-
ers during the next excursion.

rine bill as finally passed is SON ewhat
modified from the form in which it was
reported from the committee on agri-
culture 1t makes oleomargarine or i'm
1tatlOn butter or cheese transported into
any state or territory for use, sale or
consumption therein subject to the laws
of such states or territories, notwith-
standing that it may be introduced in

of 10 cents per pound on oleomargarine
made in imitation of butter of any
shade of yellow" When not made in
such imitation the tax is reduced to
one-fourth of one cent per pound. The
second section is intended to prevent

facturer within the meaning of the
act. Penalties for violation OF the act
are a fine of not less than $50 nor more
than $500, and Imprisonment for not
less than 80 days nor more than six
months. The new section relating to
the inspection and branding of reno
waited butter is as follows:
THAT the secretary of agriculture is
hereby authorized and required to
cause a rigid sanitary inspection to be
made from time to time and at such
times as he may deem necessary. of all
factories and StorehOuseS where butter
is renovated; all butter renovated at
such places shall be carefully inspected

extent and purpose that meat products
are now inspected. The quality and
quantity of butter renovated shall be
reported monthly. All renovated but
ter shall be designated as such by
marks, brands and labels. and the
words renovated butter shall be print
ed on all packages thereof, in such
manner as may be prescribed by the
secretary of agriculture, and shall be
sold only as renovated butter. No rem
ovated butter shall be shipped or trans
ported from one state to another, or to
foreign countries. unless inspected as
provided in this section
