The work of preparing the tunnel
for permanent way will be rushed as
rapidly as possible, and it is hoped to
inaugurate the tunnel about March
18th.
The piercing of the Simplon is re-
garded as being one of the greatest
engineering achievements of the age.
Many difficulties were encountered and
overcome. The length of the tunnel
from Briga, Switzerland, to lselle on
the Italian side of the mountain, IS
about twelve miles. Work was begun
over seven years ago and, according
to contract, the tunnel must be ready
for traffic on May Is next. The Swiss

The above is suggestive-not absolute;
but 1t is well within the limits Of probable

much money profit even in the last stated
ease, with cotton at cents. Well, no; but
1t is very much better than making 40
bales on 100 acres at a cost of cents and
selling 1t at cents The truth Is, land

BURGLARS IN THIS SECTION.
An Organized Band Believed to BE
Operating in Southwest Georgia.

An Organized Band Believed to Be
Operating in Southwest Georgia.
1t is believed that regular organ
lied gang of burglars are operating in
southwest Georgia.
Within the last three weeks there
have been an unprecedented number
of burglaries and attempted rObberies
throughout the southern part of the
state. Several robberies have been at
tempted in Cordele. The postohice at
Wenona was broken open and robbed
and few nights afterward man was
fired upon while trying to force an
entrance to room in Cordele. Pools
of blood were found in several win
dows of south Cordele residences.
The suspicion that an organized
gang of burglars is at work seems to
be confirmed by the killing of a bur
glar several nights ago by a doctor at
Eufaula, Ala. Before dying the man
confessed that he was a member of an
organized band of robbers who We're
operating in southwest Georgia and
southeast Alabama.

REDUCING THE ACREAGE AND REDUCING

at least Ie-haIf, SO thu he viz get 1-lrTy
bales from the so acres? The 'nxed
charges" in labor, interest, superinten-
dence. etc. will be no greater per acre on
the 80 acres than they were formerly on
the 100 acres or just half as much for pro-
ducing the thirty bales as for producing
the forty bales.
He will have produced on the so acres
30 bales; whereas before he produced only
20 bales (the hnlf of 40 bales on that area.
This gain Of 10 bales is almost entirely due
to the use of 81 worth Of fertilizers per acre,
or 500 worth Oh the so acres, making the
ten bales cost $40 each, or cents per

self we have supposed to have cost cents
per pound. or 500 for the 70 bales. The
10 bales of increase cost $780, plus the cost
of picking, $50. total, $3.50. OF course,
then the 80 bales will have cost 500 plus
$3.50 or a grand total Of $3.50 for the 80
bales, or 2-3 cents per pound OF lint
The suppositions on which these calcula-
lions are based are all within very moder-
ate bounds and are used only to illustrate
the principle AS much more liberal ap-
plication OF fertilizers per acre would make
a still stronger illustration.
Therefore, it seems to me plain, that the
farmer should produce a larger percentage
OF that undivided portion Of each bale that
cost only cents per pound and a small
or percentage Of the portion that costs
cents per pound. II one-half OF each bale
Of cotton cost 8 cents per pound and the
remaining half cost cents per pound then
it is quite clear that the mean cost of the
bale Of cotton would be an exact mean be-
tween and or cents per pound. If one
third only, of the bale cost cents pound
and the remaining two-thirdS cost cents
per pound. the whole bale will have cost
2-3 cents per pound. If one fourth of the
bale cost cents pound and the remain
ing three quarters cost 3 cents per pound
then the whole bale will have cost cents
per pound.
To sum up and present the whole at a
glance. we may reasonably draw the follow
Ing comparisons:
