NEW ARTESIAN WELL
 PROVES GOOD INVESTMENT

Fort Gaines. Ga, Sept. 1s.-Fort Gaines new artesian well is proving to be the best investment the city ever made. Its flow is over (250 gallons per minute, sulphur and iron being the principle minerals.
 It is frequent sight to see wagons loaded with water from this magnifi- cent well on the way out of the city to distant points. Hundreds of peo- nle have been attracted to Fort Gaines since the we'll was started flowing.

LOUISIANA CORN
 REACHES MARKET

New Orleans. Sept. 1s.-The first big shipment of Louisiana corn will be on the local market In a few days, as 1t was ascertained that several carloads of the native-grown product were al- ready moving on the Southern Pacific Railroad.
 The character of the Louisiana corn, from the tests and experiments made by MT. Richenson. chief grain inspec- tor of the board of trade, is said to be of the very best, and even superior to the corn grown in Nebraska and Illi- nois. looked upon as two of the greatest grain States.
 The Southern Pacific reaches through one of the richest districts of the state and the farmers along the line, espec- ially in south Invest Louisiana. have gone in extensively for corn growing, many of them giving up attempts at cotton raising because of the boil weevil. The Louisiana corn, according to the state- ments of the roads representatives in the section, promises golden results, and the indications are that the crop will be large and profitable one.
 MT. Richeson is still continuing his tour through the grain districts of the State, and has so far visited planters along both the Southern Pacific and Texas and Pacific. Mir. Richeson's tele- grams and long distance teleph one messages to A. F. Leonhardt, chairman of the grain committee of the board of trade, are most encouraging, and, from what MT. Richeson says. the crop is

ready for the harvest and shipment now. Fl
 Mir. Richeson has given valuabIe aid to the farmers with his advice and in- struction as to how to gather and ship the crop, and he has aided materially In the success that will doubtless be achieved.
 One great advantage the Louisfana corn will have over the corn of the Western States is that 1t will reach the market two months earlier than the products of Nebraska or Illinois. If it all turns out to be of the character of the samples already analysed by Mir. Richeson, Louisiana will take her place among the best corn producing States of the country.
 Much interest is being taken fin the first carloads of corn for the season to this city. and brokers on change, rafI-a road people who are interested in the development of Louisiana, asd business, men generally are anxiously awaiting the grains arrival. SO that its grade might be determined as compared tos the corn from the Western States.
 There will be heavy shipments from the sections along the Te Hls and Pa cino during the month, tt Is thought. and the farmers and planters on the line of the Louisiana Railway and Nayf- gation Company are also preparing to ship large quantities on that road.

tions as he did in Europe where h,s remains have been found in the caves of Jura.
 The finding of metal cup few day. ago In the same pit adds a very pecu- liar feature to the case. The caveu1an Is usually associated with the srone age and for this reason 1t is hard to bring the bones and the cup fin inimedi- ate relation, although they were found In practically the same stratum.
 It may be mentioned in this connec. tion that for a long time 1t has been believed that some of the Spanish mis- sionaries buried treasure in the cayes of the hill. Possibly the cup found ia associated with the cause of this rumor Many searches have been made for the treasure but so far if 1t has been found. nobody but the finder knows anything of It. The cup found, no doubt, has been thrown In the pit recently and had then been covered up by a slide of, gravel loosened during one of the re- cent heavy rains. Since the gravel de- posit has lain undisturbedly in ffR present position for a period long pre-l ceding historic man this seems to bel the only solution of the case so far as. the cup Is concerned.

San Antonio. Texas, Sept. 1S.-(Spec- l.)-Parts of skeletons thought to be- long to prehistoric man were brought to light a few days ago by workmen digging in one of the municipal gravel pits north of San Pedro Park.
 The pit in question is situated against the side of a hill and several small caves have already been laid bare by the removal of gravel. In one of them. however. had anything been found. The geological nature of the hill is of the upper cretaoious consisting of white. soft limestone. a material especially favorable to the forming of caves by the action of water.
 That the remains found do not belong to modern times Is sh own in the first place by the deposits of gravel closing the cave and belonging to the Pleisto- ceno period. and secondly by the size of the bones. Built in proportions as known to use the remains must have formed a man over seven feet tall. Since the Indian who formerly inhabit- ed these parts never attained this great height the problem of identity Is as interesting as it is obscure. Evi- dently primitive man on the American continent lived under similar condi-

the ability of the tree to withstand light frosts makes 1t the best tree for these parts. Another advantage Tn se- lectine the Satsuma Is the fact that 1t Is an early fruit, coming into the mar ket when the groves of California and Florida are not yet in a position to supply ripe oranges.
 The climate and soil of Southwest Texas have. as far as the North Am erican continent is concerned, practic- ally Insured a monopoly to the1 parts in the growing of oceans. The pecan nut is a native of Southwest Texas and along the river banks and in the flats 1t Is found In 6 wild state.
 The efforts of agriculturalists to re- duce the growth of wood in the tree and covert the energy thus saved into nuts have been very successful and a tree bearing about nine times the num- Der of nuts In proportion to the wood as compared with the wild species has been produced. Incidentally the size of the nuts as well as their flavor has greatly benefited by the process.
 There are now 14,000 acres planted with oceans. though only e very small number of trees are mature enough to bear. Reliable. authorities are of the opinion that within the next two years at least 45,00o acres will be planted with oceans. Like practically every other wood derived from nut trees. that of the pecan is very useful. its beauti- ful grain and suspectfbility to very high polish making 1t first class ma- terial for high type wood work.

Since that time I have cultivated thal sail both ways with a section harrow every week and the result has been as -i tonishing.

SAN ANTONIO MAY GET
 AEOPLANE STATION

San Antonio, Texas Sept. 1S.-(Spec- ial, ,)-General James Allen, chief of the United States Army Signal Corps. Is in favor of San Antonio as an aerial navi- gation statin. According to correspon- dence between him and Congressman Elayden, he considers the meteorological conditions at Fort Sam Houston the most favorable for the pursuing of aeronautical work.
 Major Allen Buell., in charge of the local Weather Bureau, has prepared a complete survey of the air currents, wind velocity and storms for the War Department with the result that Fort Sam Houston looks the most likely spot for the establishment of the station.
 General Allen intends to have the Wright Brothers train some of the officers of the Signal Corps in the handling of the aeroplane. If the necessary arrangements can be made in time this Is to take place during the coming winter season.
 Company I, United States Army Sig nal Corps, stationed at Fort Sam Hous- ton since last November. has recently been supplied with all the material necessary to conduct captive ballonn manouYers. ..lL.AlA-~

WESTON AGAIN LEADS
 MRECELPTS OF COTTON

Galveston, Tex, Sept 1s.-Ths cot tdn season for 1908 shows that the port of jGalveston has established another big record in the matter of receipts
 { The statement compiled by Secretary |. O. Young. of the Galveston Cotton bxchange. shows that during the last twelve months a total of 3.657,156 bales of the staple were received. Last years total was 2.saa42s, or over 100000 bales less.
 This report also shows that the rece- ipts for last year exceeded the com bined receipts of the ports of New Or leans and Savannah by SEATS bales, the receipts of the two latter ports be- ing: New Orleans. 2,1o0,57S; Savannah. 1,520,105.
 The end of this season shows that Galveston croweded very close to the banner year of the port, 1907. when a total of 3.S91,695 bales were received.
 In Secretary Young's report the fact is shown that during the past year every port In the United States was exceeded in receipts 10000 bales for

German empire. It has long been known that the empire Is growing rap idly in population. wealth and com merce, but these figures indicate that Its progress is being made at a steadily and. indeed, rapidly increasing rate.
 The population in 1882 was 45,232,113 in 1895 1t was 51.770.2s4 and in 1907 1t was 61,720.529. Thus in the former period of thirteen years the increase was 14.4S per cent, and in the latter period of twelve years 1t was 1922 per cent.
 This increase was due not so much to a growing birth rate as to the P1s- sening of the death rate through im- proved sanitation and advanced medi- cal and surgical knowledge.
 It Is to be observed also that the in- crease of the male population Is great CT than that of the female, although the female population is still in the ma jority. Thus, from 1882 to 1895 the in crease of the males was 14.71 per cent and of females 14.26 per cent, and from 1895 to 1907 the figures were respective ly 1888 and 1855 per cent. The result Is that while in 1882 the excess of fe- males over the males was 920,615, in 1907 1t was only 79S.32s.
 To what extent this state of affairs is due to the military service of men and to the increasing engagement of women in business pursuits is an in teresting topic of speculation and pos sible investigation.
