The Triton (Ga). Gazette has this item which will be interesting to : many of our readers:
 T. J. Parker last week. from seven acres, gathered. shucked shelled and sold. for the cash. at 90 cents per bushel zs6 bushels of corn, actual weight, being one pound less than for ty-one bushels to the acre. There is no theory or guess Wolk about this yield. the corn being gathered, shelled, weighed and sold.
 Now. while a yield of about forty one bushels of corn per acre would not be looked on as an extraordinary :, crop in some of the great corn-grow- ing regions of the West 1t Is so far above the average In the South that it is worth noting Even if the corn was grown under the Williamson or some other special method it goes to show what can be done in Georgia. and we suppose the same will apply to much of Alabama.

FRIDAY. OCTOBER 70. isss.
TIMES CHANGES.

A change in the methods of doing 4 certain class of work--any kind of
 work requiring the labor of human hands--invariably results In more or less of hardship. The introduction of : sewing machines, to take that as one example, threw thousands of seam stresses and journeyman tailors out of work. because one machine could do the work of several pairs of hands. ,. and employers were not Slow to adopt z the plan that would accomplish the best results at least cost. So 1t has been In an cases where machinery has taken the place of human hands, { doing the work quicker and cheaper. and often better.
 ~ One of tho most notable instances : of the ,resrsttabie result of . change : of method comes from London in cou- nection with the public cabs--hacks
 we call them. These. as all know. were drawn. by horses. and of course : each cab had It's driver. Lately the : use of taxicabs has become general in London: the taxicabs being hcrseless carriages. driven by electricity or some other mechanical power. and as the ordinary cab driver could not run
 the new style of vehicle, or was not : given ths chance to do so. they had
 to go out of business. The latest . report we have seen from the great
 English city states that no less than 14.ooo cab drivers have already been
 put out of jobs. We have no infor-
 nation as to the whole number of
 drivers that were employed there, but
 the number given above who have
 been displaced shows how the new
 style of vehicle has taken hold. As : the average working Englishman is
 slow about changing his habits. and . as it is difficult for the idle to find
 employment in London. 1t is evident
 that the substitution of mechanical

A BIG PHONE DEAL
Bradley Admits Controlling the
New Long Distance
Corporation.
MAY KILL COMPETITION
(American News Service)

(American News Service)
Indianapolis, Nov. Johannes S.
Bradley of Toledo admitted today that
he has bought control of the New
Long Distance Telephone company.
which is the largest independent COM
pany in Indiana, operating several
hundred miles of long distance lines.
The report is that he bought it for the
Postal Telegraph company which is
owned by the Bell Telephone COM
pany. If this is true it means that
the Bell company will wipe out com.
petition in Indiana and Ohio for the
smaller independent companies will
then be at its mercy. The New Long
Distance company is parent company
of all Indiana independents. Bradley,
already, controls the Indianapolis To-
cal company and this gives him the
complete control of the Independent
field. 1t is the biggest telephone deal
in 1ndiana's history and may give the
Bell company an absolute monopoly.
