Paper From Corn Stalks.
The government has begun expe

/ The government has begun expert
menting on the manufacture of pa
per from corn stalks in Iowa. Sew
eral experiment stations have been
established, one of them on farm
near Packwood, Jefferson county. To
prOfitably manufacture paper from
corn stocks proximity to large corn
fields. cheap coal and abundant wa
ter is necessary. There are 100000
600 tons of corn stalks produced
every year in the United States, the
yield being three to five tons per
acre. Last year Iowa had 9,O6S,OO0
acres in corn, which at SIS per ton
for five tons to the acre, would have
brought the farmers of the state
s226,7O0,O00 in addition to their re-
ceipts for last year Besides this,
the manufacture of paper from these
stalks yields by-product, a molasses
which is most excellent for stock
food.
Paper can be made both from the
pith and the fiber Of the cornstalk.
but only about As per cent of the
stalks can be reduced to paper pulp.
1t takes eight tons of cornstalks to
make one ton of paper fiber and it is
the handling of this great bulk and
the large waste of material that con-
stitutes the most serious problem
confronting the cornstalk paper man
ufacturer. The extraction of 300
pounds of stock food molasses from
each ton of stalks goes a long way
towards solving the problem of cheap
cornstalk paper. Experiments also
are being conducted in the combina-
ton of cornstalk pith and fiber with
ether paper-making material like
wood pulp to produce paper.
Ton for ton the amount of pulp
from the cornstalks is just about the
same as from wood, but the pulp
from the cornstalks is a finer grade,
and better quality than that of the
ordinary wood pulp. In fact, it is so
fine that it could be used to a con-
siderable extent for additions to We
ry cheap woods which are not now
available for wood pulp. That is the
idea that is being developed by the |
forest service; that is, in addition to |
lsiIg the cornstalk material directly |
'or paper, it would be utilized for |
or building up the cells
If wood fiber of very cheap woods
which are not now used for pulp.
The samples show that you can make
Ill grades of paper, from the vellum
'aper down to tissue paper suitable
or wrapping butter and things of
hat kind.
Good writing paper can be made
rom the cornstalk pulp also and
good newspaper print paper can be
made from it as well as from wood
,ulp. 1t has been stated that print
'aper from cOrnstalks could be sold
or IS to $40 ton, which is less
han is paid now for print paper from
IOOd pulp.

BY II. n. BRlMLEY.

A month before, near Boston town.
The blood OF patriots flowed apace:
80 God protect them with Thy Grace
And bring the proud oppressor DOWN:
Such was the prayer the patriots made
In Meckienburg and lexington
BY mother weeping for her SON:
For men whose glory shall not fade.
The news was brought to Charlotte down.
BY couriers riding night and day
Until a month had passed away
Since blood had flowed at Lexington.
Assembled at the court house square
OF Mecklenburg's fair county seat,
The stern-faced burghers held their meet
And Independence did declare.
From rule OF England's mighty king,
4 weaker people dared the strong
And raised their their voices loud and long
Agains the cruel acts that stingl
On this, the Twentieth Day of May.
In seventeen hundred seventy-fve:
(Ths date to fix we'll ever strive
Beyond the changing doubters nay1
Their freedom from depressing laws
They said that day would take,
And eyermore, in Freedoms wake.
Would live for and support the Cause
With blood-and life. if need might be:
These men were stern in purpose set,
And no heart held one vain regret
In saying that they would be free.
mat day we now commemorate;
We honor to those patriots give
Who risked their lives that we might liv.
In freedom in your mother State.

Route Through the Capitals.
News and Observer

News and Observer.
There is deep interest in North
Carolina in the proposed automobile
route from New York to Atlanta
and from New York to Florida. The
New York Herald and the Atlanta
journal are arousing interest and
will send out path-finders, so to
speak, to fix the best route. The
automobile has come to stay. New
England is full every Summer of
touring parties and the South would
be full of them if the roads were good
and if the tourists knew of the
pleasure such trips would give. This
is particularly true of parties from
the North who come Pinehurst,
Aiken, Camden, and other resort
places in North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, Georgia and Florida
Two routes are proposed-one
from Washington via Lynchburg.
Danville, Greensboro, Charlotte and
Atlanta, and one from Washington
by Richmond. Petersburg. Warren
ton. Henderson, Raleigh, Apex, San
ford, Pinehurst, Jackson Springs.
Ellerbe Springs, Rockingham and on
through Columbia to Atlanta in one
direction and to Florida in another
direction. OF course lateral routes
to go from Raleigh to Durham. and
on to Greensboro are suggested. In
course of time both the routes
through North Carolina will be select
ed-through the Piedmont and the
Central section, and another through
the Eastern section. Tho one that
will be most popular and receive the
largest travel will be the one through
the National capital and the capital
of all the South Atlantic States.
Last night the Chamber of Com
merce ut well attended meeting
heard sensible and practical ad-
dress by Mr.. .lLeonard Tufts, OF Pine
hurst. who is taking leep interest
in the matter, and passed resolutions
calling upon all the towns and
villages along the proposed route to
unite to secure the Capital Route as
the first official route. They also
call upon the county authorities and
road officials to cooperate to the
end that good roads be constructed,
for in the final decision the route
that has the best roads will be most
lv travelled. Raleigh, Henderson,
Warrenton, and Sanford are already
aroused. Let the whole people lend
a hand to this important matter.

VI omen Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great a change q
few years Of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition uf many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
briiiiaace vanish like the bloom from Il
peach which is rudely handled. The
mdtron is only dim shadow, faint echo

reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
ncsscs which too often come with mar
rage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain Is robbing the check

~ this AFTERNOON
GAME BETWEEN OLD TIME Riv'
AIS HAS FINALLY BEEN
ARRANGED
Parker Will Be Up for the Soldiers
and johnson viii Do the Tossing
for the Morton County Team.

AT. last the Company A boys and
Mandan have come to terms.
r Late Saturday afternoon, Manager
Berthoved was able to arrange a
game with the Mandan team, after
almost a month of dickering back
ard forth. Since that sensational
eight inning game on Decoration Day
both teams have been side stepping
each other, and the fans of both the
towns are beginning to think that it
is a case of cold feet on both sides.
However, tomorrow will tell.
The same batteries will be on the
Job, ami with Parker pitching for
the soldiers, and Johnson for the up
river ball tossers, the baseball fans
anticipate a red-hot pitchers battle.
Parker's stock has taken quite a
boost since that Fourth of July game
in which he out-pitched Tower the
Underwood crack.
It has been noticeable all season
that he has the faculty of getting
the very best support out of the team
behind him. Orr will be back at his
old place at second base, which will
greatly strengthen the in-feld.
This will be the last game by the
militia team on the local grounds for
some. time, as they leave Sunday
night for their annual encampment
at Devils Lake, where they will play
a series of games with the teams in
that locality, and have also arranged
to play several games on their re-
turn trip.

$4,000 CAR OF BUTTER.

Jamestown Alert: A carload OF
stuSman county butter was shipped
yesterday by George Brown, to Seat
tie, consigned to J. B. Egan, one OF
the largest dealers in butter and eggs
aon the Pacific coast. The car was a
big Northern Pacific refrigerator and
held $50 tubs of butter, each weigh

are worth about $4,000, and is the
result of a collection of butter, for
shipment, as this point, during the
past week. A greater part of the
money has been paid out to farmers
in the county, who bring their pro-
ducts, or which are shipped to the
Jamestown Creamery for re-ship-
ment to other points.
