GROWING OF CASSAVA
PLANT WHICH MIGHT BE
INTRODUCED HERE
Produces More Starch Per Acre Than
Any Other crop and is Also Good
Cattle Food

The last issue of the Cosmopolitan
Magazine has an article on the COM
mercial possibilities of Cassava, which
Agricultural Commissioner Jared Smith
is trying to introduce here. Smith
thinks IL would do well i'm Hawaii, and
according to the writer i'm the COsmO-
politau. Condict Packard, it is a very
profitable crop. He says that it pro-
duces more starch per acre than any
other plant, and continues:
AS an article of commerce, Cassava
starch appears destined to play no in
considerable part i'm the near future.
While yet am absolute infant industry"
already two extensive cassava-starch
factories are i'm active operation i'm Flo
rida. AT Spring Garden there is
single field of Cassava of three hundred
and seventy-tiye acres, the largest sim
gle patch known to the writer. In the
extreme western part of Florida i'm Es

Pensacola, the Southern States Lumber
Company of that city, has some fifty
acres Of Cassava this year. the product

Magnolia Hill ranch, a few miles away,
i'm Baldwin County Alabama.
After the recent tests made at Jack
sOnvlle by representatives, of the
starch trust the report stated that as
laundry adjunct cassava starch, at
four and One-half cents per pound,
exceeded in value by six to one,
for plain and fancy laundry purposes,
the finest starch made from wheat. As
the wheat starch cost six cents pound,

BOARD or PUBLIC WORKS.
Appointed to Select Sui

Committee Appointed to Select Suit
 able Names For The Squares.
 The board of public works held a meeting last night, Mayor Kilduff pre- siding and all the members being pres ent
 The matter of improvements at Blakeslee square, junction of Grand and Bank streets was discussed, but nothing definite was decided upon. A committee consisting of the mayor, city engineer and Commissioner Whiting, was appointed to report suitable names for the broad space on Bank street opposite the Bank street school and for the patches at Hill and North Main streets, and Bank and Grand streets.
 Property owners on Ben Mohr were heard relative to the layout of Green mount terrace. The matter was re- ferred to the engineer to designate the location of the storm sewer in that dis trict. After this has been done it is thought that there will be no trouble in getting the right of way for the conduit and then there will be no ques- ton about the acceptance of the street.
 The applications of the Chase Rail- ing Mill company, ct al, to remove d house from Round Hill street to East Farm street and of the Charles H. Percy to remove a house on Farm street to another site, were referred to q committee consisting of Mayor Ikil- duff and Commissioner Blakeslee with power to act.
 c. A. Ketchen, through his attorney, James A. Peasley, notined the board that he will claim $1OO from the city on account of damage to his place, P Walnut street, by reason of surface water. The chair decided that the mat ter properly belonged to the board of aldermen. -he matters of adjusting a sewer assessment on property of Mrs Margaret Hurley, 2O6 Dublin street was referred to the engineer. It was voted to recomend to the aldermen that building lines be established on Green street, both sides, from Drayer street to Alder street.
 The engineer was instructed to call for bids for the grading of Ashley street, the same to be received up to October 14, 1902.
 The superintendent of streets was instructed to rSmove 8 tree that stands in the gutter near North Main and Grove streets.
 The proposed outing of the board to consider petitions for electric lights was postponed until a week from Fri day night. While this matter was on Mayor Kilduff called attention to a new light which they are using in Mer- iden and suggested that the matter be looked into. The light referred to costs 1 about seven cents night. It is prob able that one of the new lights will be installed here and if it proves satisfac- tory several more may be added. The matter of relocating the light at the corner of Bank and Sixth streets 1 was placed on the list for investigation. proved.
 The board adjourned for a week.

NEW YORK, Sept. 17.-With perfect weather, good track and large and appreciative crowd the great stallion Dan Patch had every circumstance in his favor in his effort to defeat old Fa- ther Time and win the worlds pacing record, but he did not do so. Accom- panied by a running mate, the famous son of Joe Patchen first came out and paced preliminary mile in 2:11. In his first effort he went to the quarter in O:30A and then broke and came back. In his second effort he went to the quarter in 0:30% and on to the half in 1:01, but tired badly and came home all out in 2:021a.
