LOCAL PRODUCE MARKETS.
How Agricultural Towns Can Assist ir
 Preventing Corners" in Produce.

Now and then complaint is heard of how the large packing houses and handlers of produce manipulate prices Of eggs and poultry. These concerns are enabled to do this through their facilities for extensively handling goods and preserving them in their mammoth cold storage plants Their system is to buy in the lowest market and hold the produce until the demand is such that prices reach the top notch.
 It is evident that were the business men of small towns to follow out to some extent the plans of these large houses, the home market would be ma terially improved. In the agricultural towns merchants are the most exten- sive handlers of farmers produce. This business is incidental to the mer- cantie business, and few merchants have proper facilities for the storing and proper care of perishable goods, therefore, immediately upon receiving supplies from the farmer, consign. ments are made to the commission houses in the large cities, and thus arc the large commission men enabled to obtain control of the markets and to manipulate prices.
 Each agricultural community pro- duces enough poultry and eggs and miscellaneous dairy products to sup port prosperous exclusive produce house. But when the articles that the farmers have for sale are distributed among dozen or more stores, each acting independently, it is evident that highest market prices cannot be paid The plan proposed for the organiza- tion of cooperative produce companies in each town has many desirable points ill its favor At small expense coldstorage plant of adequate capac- ity to handle all perishable products of the community can be put in order. A plant of this kind, if rightly man. aged, would greatly improve the con ditions of the local markets and higher prices could be paid for produce than the merchants could afford to pay for the same.
 A number of towns i'll the middle west have adopted this system, and with success. Not alone have the home markets been greatly improved, but greater volume of trade has been brought to the merchants Should this plan be universally followed, in agricultural districts, it would lessen the opportunity for the manipulation of prices of produce. and the Corner ing of the market by the large com mission and packing houses.

How to Approach Work.

Put the right spirit in your work. Treat your calling as divine--as 3 call from principle If the thing itself be not important, the spirit in which ycu take hold of it makes all the differ ence in the worl1 to you. It can make or mar the man. You cannot afford to form habit of half doing things, or of doing them in the spirit Of a drudge, for this will drag its slimy trail through all your subsequent ca reer, always humiliating you at the most unexpected times. Let other people do the poor lobs, the botched work, if they will. Keep your stand ards up, your ideals high.
 The attitude with which man ap- breaches his task has everything to do with the quality and efficiency of his work, and With ltS Influence upon ms character. What 2 man does is 2 part of himseh.~ It is the sef-expres- sion of what he.stands for. Our l fe- work is an outpicturing of our am bition, cur ideals, cur real selves. If you see 2 mans work you see the man.
 No one can respect himself, or have that sublime faith in himself which is essential to all high achieve ments, when he puts mean, half hearted slpshod service into what he does. He cannot get his highest self-approval until he does his level best.-Onson Swett Marden in "Suc- cess Magazine.

Hydraulic lifeboats.

Several of these craft are now in service in the United States. The propelling agents are jets of water driven out by powerful steam pump through nozzles under water
 The nozzles can be made to drive the boat forward or backward, or turn 1t, the boat, of course. being driven by the reaction in the direction oppo. site 10 that of the escaping water.
 A speed of 100 miles au hour was re. gently maintained in New York har. Dor in trial trip.
 Hydraulic lifeboats are not econom. ical; their strong point is the ab- sence of any external paddle wheels or propellers, which are so liable to be. come fouled by wreckage. The boat has projecting guards, which protect the nozzles from striking against slips or docks.

EYE WITNESSES TO THE TRAGEDY
Not Known Why Garter Killed Him

Said to Have Fled the

EYE WITNESSES TO THE TRAGEDY

From DeSoto yesterday came parti-
culars of a Saturday night tragedy
wherein James Floyd, a colored fore
man on the Huguenin plantation east
of Americas, was shot and instantly
killed by one Anthony Carter.
Floyd was killed in front of Carter's
house as he was getting out of his
buggy to talk to Carter, at the lat
ter's request.
This was the statement of two ne
groes, who were present and Witness
ed the shooting.
Floyd had been in DeSoto during
the afternoon, and about shutdown or
a little later had started home. AS
he passed Caters house that indivi-
dual went to the roadside, and, it is
said, asked Floyd to get down.
He was in the cast of descending
from the buggy, when, it is said, Car
ter shot him dead and at once fed
from the scene. Floyd was unarmed,
and evidently anticipated no trouble
when he climed from the buggy.
If the man had trouble previously
the fact is not known. 1t is said that
a reward will be offered for Carriers
capture.
