New Jute Mill Being Rushed to Com
pletion-Work All Done by Con-
vict Labor.

Word has just been received by c.
S. Reed, superintendent of the state
epnitentiary that the legislature has
appropriated $4,000 for the building of
new shop hall at the penitentiary.
About double the present space will be
obtained when this structure is COM
pleted as the new building will be a
wo-story brick one. The present place
of work does not furnish near enough
room an dwith this addition, the work
can be properly carried on.
About one hundred and twenty men
are now working on the new jute mill
and it is said that in a short time dou-
BILE that number can be used No
outside labor is being employed not
even a foreman as among the 1000
| men now confined in the prison is al
most every class Of workman.
I The new jute mill is an immense
| affair being 1O7 by 1O3 feet and will
| when completed employ $50 men more
than twice the number employed in
| the old mill. Those in charge of the
construction work do not know at
present whether or not the mill will
be ready for use this winter. The
work of building the stockade and
warehouse have to be carried on in
conjunction with raising Of the main
building.
Incidental with the enlargement of
the stockade to enclose the new mill
will be the forming Of a new play
ground for the men and arrangement
for a women's playground. Since the
erection of the new hospital the build
| ing formerly used for such has been
remodeled for the housing of women
prisoners and allows them much more
room and freedom than was previously

Burton Farmers Club.

The November meeting of the
Burton Farmers Club was held at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Clayton
K. Potter. The meeting was called
to order by Vice President Brook
ings and an opening song was sung
followed by the devotions which
were conducted by Rev. F. |. Walk
er of Laingsburg.
The question of the value of Glow
er or timothy to the soil and why
was thoroughly discussed. Mr..
Hammond believes that clover loos-
ems the soil at the top and down
tending to make room for air which
together with the roots sweetens and
loosens the soil. The timothy root
grows more on top of the ground
and seems to pack the soil making
it hard and impoverished.
Mrs. CARRIER told of the value OF
her hens. She has Matched 225
chickens and sold hundred dol
lars worth of eggs besides those
used for the house, from 100 fowls,
since the first of April. Others also
spoke of the value of their hens.
Should Women Have the Right
to Voter" Mrs. Hammond person
ally does not care to vote but be-
lieves politics might be somewhat
improved if women did. Mrs. G.. c.
Potter does not favor women voting
as she thinks many of the good wo-
men would not vote while the un-
scrupulous women would and 40
more harm than good.
Mrs. Walker favors woman stuff
rage and thinks there would be a
great cleaning up in politics.
Does Working Beans When They
are Wet Cause Damage Mr..
Brookins said his man worked
some beans after very heavy dew
and apparently the only harm done
was the rust on the leaves caused by
the dirt striking them. He received
as many bushels to the acre, he be-
lieves, as he would have had they
not been worked wet.
"McCurdy Park: Should it be
Supported by the County Through
Taxes?" Mr.. Rush thinks the peo-
pie Of the county should help pay
| the expenses of the park but il
should be paid through the taxes as
there would be tendency toward a
| greater expense each year.
Rev. Walker, Mr.. Sprinkle and
others favor paying the expenses
with the taxes.
Mr.. Rush. Then the people
| should nave the opportunity to vote
as to whether they should be taxed
instead of it being left for the SUI
pervisors to decide"

At the height of two miles the sun
shines with IA fierce intensity unknown
below. where the dust and the denser
air scatter the rays, which. thus diff
fused. lose their intensity while illu-
mining every nook and corner of our
houses. At heights exceeding five miles
this diffused light is mostly gone, and
the sun shines glowing ball. sharply

the outer limits Of the atmosphere the
sun would appear brilliant star Of
massive size among other stars. and II
one stepped from its burning rays into
shadow he would enter Egyptian dark
ness. At the height of a mile and a
half we found 1t necessary to shelter
our faces to prevent sunburn, although
the air around us was but little warm
er than that OF the previous night, be
ing about 45 degrees. As the afternoon
wore on and the balloon began to cool
and sink we were obliged TO throw out
much sand. casting 1t away scoopful
at time, and just after sunset it was
even necessary to empty two or three
bags at once.-H. II. Clayton in Allan
