New Business Enterprises - uood Year for the Man With the Hoe, and the Owner of Live Stock Everybody VIII Have Money
The Montgomery advertiser., 1904-12-05

back to the time of the first hydrogen pal loon in 17es. 1t has only recently been put in successful application. though in asss air reservoirs were employed to regulate the shape of balloone. During the last year Hendy de Ia vaupix and Henri Harve have made Improvements whereby successful as' cents and voyages have been made, and the altitude of the balloon nicely regulated The ballonet is an annular compartment or lens shaped section placed around the lower pert of the balloon proper and provided with suitable valves By forcing air in or out of the ballonet the displacement and conse- quently the buoyancy Is altered. Thus In the first ascent made by N. de la Vauix crossing of the English channel was made at . height of about 1000 feet with the ballonet filled. On rising above the clouds the suns rays would have expanded the gas within the balloon proper and carried would have been driven toward the Arctic Sea by the prevailing southerly winds had they not been able to descend to lower level by using the .ballonet. Thus they were able to proceed in the desired direc- tion on this particular voyage. landing Tn Yorkshire after a trip of sixteen hours. By regulating the position of the balloon with the ballonet it is possible to save ballast so that much longer trips can be taken with favorable winds. Further trips in this bal loon were equally successful and demon strated the success of the ballonets, and this arrangement should be advantageous Tn dirigibie balloons or on airships. es they would supply . means of regulating the buoyancy of the envelope containing the gas.

The Three Angels.

 Here is a bit of Hungarian folklore. After the Lord had decided to expel Adam and Eve from Paradise He sent Gabriel the Now, from the eating of the fruit of the for bidden tree Adam and Eve had become quite shrewd, and they were endeavoring to get out of the fix as best they could, so they prepared a big feast, received Gabriel with the utmost kindness and sought to win his heart by a lot of affectionate words. They succeeded. It grieved Gabriel to ex- pei these kind hosts from their home. He therefore returned to the Lord with the re- quest that somebody else be given this un- pleasant mission.
 Thereupon the Lord sent Florian, the Rou- manian angel. because the Lord knew Flor ian to be more obedient and less magma nimous. Adam and Eve were just dining when Fiorian. hat and large cane in hand. stepped in, He saluted in a most humble manner and then told why he had come. Have you it in writing?" inquired Adam severely. No" stammered the visitor, and. frightened. he returned to his heavenly abode
 Then the Lord sent Michael. the German angel. Adam and Eve at once set to work preparing even a richer meal than had been served Gabriel. thinking they might induce Michael to be lenient. So the very best things were served and there was no scarcity of beer and good sausages. Michael ate until he could hardly even wheeze. Then he arose. and. drawing his sword sait, Now you get out of this!'' Adam and Eve tried all their little tricks to stay.

Raise Turkeys.

houston P0St.
 The present great demand for tur- keys presents a new opportunity to the farmers that will serve them in more than one way to get rich faster and with less exertion. It Is only within the past few years that there has been any great outside demand for turkeys, though they were generally salable at holiday time at some price. This sea- son a change in the ssytem of paying for the birds has resulted in the farm CT getting his money on the weight instead of by the head, as in past years, which makes 1t to his interest to raise heavier fowls.
 turkey Is a fine destroyer of the boil weevil, the tobacco worm and the to- mato worm. They get fat on that sort of diet and keep so with a bit of grain thrown in once in a while and attention to their sleeping quarters. The boil weevil gets busy in the spring and so do the young turkeys The tomato worms are about the fields at the time of young birds are most jealous in satisfying an appetite that has no bounds. The boil weevil and the worms go into Information in the fall just about the time that there Is a demand for fat turkeys that can't be satiated By raising turkeys the farmer gets as- sistance in keeping down the boil wee vii and the tomato worms and when it
 is time to attend the No-Tsu-Oh Car nival and buy Christmas things he not only has more cotton to sell but he also has a fine lot of birds to market The proposition is up to the farmers and 1t can't be beat.

Mrxrco rALI.rnc INro LrNE.

The fact that Mexico is certain to adopt the gold standard is significant of the trend of events in the financial affairs of the world. So far as we now remember, the adoption of tho gold standard by Mexico will leave China as the only power of any importance which still clings to the white metal. and there almost anything is money. Speaking of the proposed change The Portland Oregonian says:
 In the old days, when Mexico was drifting along In . semi -civilized state. enjoying only a mild degree of inter course with the more progressive na- tions of the earth, any old thing. from bull hides to poker chips. was in 2 measure satisfactory as a medium Of exchange. Silver came into general use because the country possessed this metal was accordingly handler to get than a metal of greater intrinsic value. So long as Old Mexico remain ed among the "trailers' in the march of civilization the disadvantages of . flexible standard were not so apparent as they are at, the present time. But recently Mexico has been moving up in the procession. and her silver basis has proven far from satisfactory. Capital from gold-basis countries was shy about seeking employment in coun- try where the financial standard was ever varying with the price of bullion;
 With the aborigines of this conti- nent. as with other savage people, almost anything that would pass from one person to Another was used as q medium of exchange. and Mexico Is just completing the transition from that condition. The silver mines or that country were both rich and easily worked, and 1t was not strange that 1t became the popular money metal
 Even now the value. of silver to that of gold turned out from their mines Is about seven to one, so that 1t Is not a matter of surprise that they have It seemed like going back on their main staple.
 But in this day of intercomnunica- tion and intimate trade relations no shut itself up against the balance of the world. If Mexico wanted to adopt or adhere to that plan, and wanted no visitor or capital from the outside world. she might afford to go in her old way and use bull-hides or poker chips as a circulating medium. but that is no longer possible. In several ways that is one of the richest regions of the continent. with possibilities almost without limit. The people of that Republic are not able to develop all their own resources or to utilize all their natural advantages. They see that they must have help from the out side world. and they also see that they need not expect that help if they cling to a defective money standard. The consequence is that she is going to fall into line with other nations and have a sound and stable financial sys- tenn. It is bound to come and the sooner the better for that country.
