horses A small portion of the mag

garment required six months of con-
slant labor for it's construction and
elaboration.

Sixteen Battitships Prepared
 for [ Epoch Making Tour
SHIPS MAY CIRCLE GLOBE
Charts Have Been Received Marking Course of Vessels In Every Part of the WorId-Bg Prob-
 lems Are Solved.

Old Point Comfort, Va, December 12- Final word of ready was flashed from every vessel in the battleship fleet today In its last analysis this signal meant that 16 of the most powerful armor clads of the American navy were ready to start next Monday morning on their pro- jected cruise to the western seas. It meant that hulls are swept and clean, that giant compound engines are rest less to be at their task, that officers and men are trained to the hour, that bunkers are overflowng with coal that larders are choked with ships provisions and that magazine doors are closed upon the greatest stores of ammunition ever placed on board American vessels of war.
 If the ships were destined for immed- ate conflict little more could be done to make them ready for the fray.
 Now that all Is ready, officers and men alike are anxious to get away. There Is an entire absence of enthusiasm, but a manifest atmosphere of serious devo- ton to duty surrounding the departure of the fleet. The orders and the pub lished itinerary offer little prospect of entertainment or amusement en route. When the fleet was first ordered to pre- pare for the Pacific voyage, the navi- gators of each ship were supplied witf specially prepared charts leading down the South Atlantic coast through the treacherous watefs of Magellan and alont l the Pacific coast to San Francisco Sev eral weeks ago these charts were sup | plemented by others showing the way 1 to Manila. Then more recently nave come lately revised charts. capable oi guiding the fleet all the way to Gibraltar The furnishing of these charts have given rise to gossip that the fleet is des- tined eventually to circle the globe. The ordnance officers have probably accomplished the most difficult tasks IT preparing for the cruise. They have mad to see to the storage of more than Z,on,- GOO pounds of ammunition In the care fully protected magazines and to the ln- stallation of the new and secret fire con tro. system. Armor piercing projectiles filled with explosive "D,' said to be the most poWerful and effective of all the secret formulas in the possession or the navy experts, have been placed apoaro tn, ships and vast supplies or smoke, less powder charges have been stoWeu away under the double protectioh oi silken bags and copper lined cylindrlca tanks. ,.,..
 One of the greatest problems whlci confronted the ordnance experts had tt do with the storage Of heaNy chaiBes of gun cotton taken along to load lne score of harbor mines which each pat tleship carries. The solution has beer found in the distribution of the deadly explosive in small portions throughou' inc officers quarters. Little woooei boxes IS inches long and six lnches IT depth and breadth, containing seNera sI abo,,t five feet apart In the ward room a, steerage dining rooms and even the officers state rooms have been invaded Tbo effort has been to keep the httl' arnlosive as far as possible from the magazines and from the shock or 'n' biU guns,

CONTRACT MEANS MUCH ID ALABAMA Black Warrior Dams Will Soon
 Be Built
WHITE LABOR FOR WORK
Awarding of Contract Will Aid the South and Particularly Alabama In Marketing the Immense
 Output of Coal.

Washington, December 12-Of far reaching importance to industrial work erJ In the south and in the Pennsylvania Iron and coal fields, was the action of the war department today in awarding contract for the construction of two large dams in the Black Warrior river. Alabama, to the Pittsburg corporation known as the Dravo Contracting com- pany, at their bid of $700,000. This cor poration already has done much river and harbor work for the government. but it is now, with the knowledge of the war department about to engage in an experiment of great interest and i'm portance to the south. in undertaking to carry out this last large project by the use of white labor exclusively
 The basis for the decision Is the fact that the contractors believe they can at the present time easily secure the necessary amount of high grade white labor in Pennsylvania and adjacent man. ufacturing states, as a result of the ex- isting industrial depression. The object of the dams is to open to slackwater navigation the Black Warrior river, giv- ins access to the great coal fields that are expected to supply the large quan- tity of fuel required for the shipments in constructing the Panama canal

 Representative Taylor called today upon the army engineers In regard to the $2Oo,0oC dredge authorized in the last rivers and harbors bill for Mobile harbor.

 Representative Wiley has been advised by officials of the agricultural department that the earlier varieties of garden seed being so generally asked for in Alabama and other southern states cannot yet be sent out because the warehouse contain ing the supply was burned about tw1 months ago. The chief of the plant in- dustry bureau contracted for another sup ply and it is actually here, but cannot be distributed until Congress makes a spe- cial appropriation to pay the bill It IS thought the appropriation will be made shortly after the House committees are announced.

A man who had amassed quite
a comfortable fortunein in the prac-
tice of medicine bought alarm in
later life. After some years OF
experience on the farm he made
the following statements, which
are worthy the consideration of
many a boy who is cut out for a
good farmer, but has aspirations
for some profession for which he
may have little more natural abil-
ity than a pig has for music.
Hear his conclusions II would
exchange my age, money and
acres for youth and forty acres,
and think that I had the best of
the bargain; and I would start
the farm by planting ten acres of
orchard, buying two sows, two
cows and two setting hens.
Youth, strength and hustle are a
great sight better than money,
and the wise youth can have a
finer farm than mine before he
passes the half century mark
even though he have but a bare
forty to begin with. "-Ex.
