CONGRESS proposes to give Pres
Ident Roosevelt a free hand in
making contracts for the con-
struction of the Panama Canal, re-
gardless of the limits of the appro-
priation originally made for the
project. Thus the cost of the
canal may, and doubtless will,
very greatly exceed the sum which
it was originally estimated that it
would require. 1t will no doubt
cost Uncle Sam a pretty penny
and, as with most improvements
made at the peoples expense. mil
lions will probably be expended
that might be saved if the work
were conducted on an economical
plan. However, when completed,
the Panama Canal will be an
achievement of which Americans
may we'll be proud.

The prominent mention of Sen
ator Charles A. Culberson of Tex
as as a candidate for the democrat
ic nomination for president is in
deed gratifying to the people of
this state. Senator Culberson has
gained national reputation for his
ability as statesman and also as
an orator while his character is
above reproach. He is southern
gentleman, and should political
fortune install him in the White
House, the American nation would
be proud of him.

IN focusing popular attention on the

Asht opera music the composer is

GROWING CORN is
TURNED INTO BREAD IN
TWENTY-FOUR HOURS

The reproach so often leveled
against British agriculturists that
they are slow and uLprogressive can
never be raised again after a demon
stration of motor harvesting given
at Kirton Uines.) recently, SAYS
the London Times. when loaves were
handed around baked from corn
that had been standing in the fields
four hours before.
The demonstration. which was
given on the farm of Messrs. Dennis
Brothers-one of the largest in the
kingdom-showed that Ill up-to-date
farm work England is we'll ahead
of most countries. Several remark
able feats were accomplished.
An acre of standing corn was
mapped out in the fields, cut, bound,
threshed, and ground by motor i'm
plements. An acre of ground was
also plowed, drilled, narrowed and
sown with q new crop within y
hours. This constitutes a world 5
record.
At 1885 the tractor started its
work by taking the threshing drum
INTO the field. Five mi.lutes later
it began to draw the harvesters.
These not only cut the corn but
bound it. Half dozen men walk
ing behind stacked 1t, and Il exactly
10 minutes what had been an acre
OF growing crop was standing on the
held ready to be placed on the cart
which the tractor proceeded to draw
round the field.
by l O'Clock the corn was lying at
the side of the threshing drum. The
tractor then got Into position to
drive the thresher. At 10 minutes
past l halt was called for luncheon.
As soon as the threshing began the
flour began to come out of the mill,
which was being worked of n pulley
on the threshing drum.
