Coahoma county has constructed
AS miles of good roads in the past
few years. The distance from
Clarksdale to Friars Point is fG
miles and the automobile can make
it in 80 minutes. In former times
it sometimes took about a day to
cover TIE distance. These roads
have been constructed with clay
and sand. We have better facili-
ties to build such roads in Clay
than can be had in Coahoma.-

FREAK IN SEQUOIA FOREST
Tree Trunk That Has Stood for Six teen Years Severed From
 It's Base

Out 1T California there is tree trunk which has stood for the last l6 years entirely severed from is base. says the Wide World Magazine. The stump is 15 feet in diameter, and the trunk towers - feet in the air This remarkable freak is located near the Sequoia forest reserve in Thlare eoun- tyi California, and was sawn off by lumbermcn for timber. Through some miscalculation. when the cut was fin ished the tree still held it's position, and dynamite was rosorted to to bring it to the ground. which accounts for the deep gash on one side After the first charge of the explosive had been ignited the tree still remained stand. ing. and it was discovered that the entire trunk had been shattered by the discharge and was therefore use less for lumber Accordingly. the work was stopped and the giant has remained upright. withstanding some of the seyerest wind storms that the state has known, held in it's natural position by it's great weight.
