demolished by being struck by a
Pennsylvania engine near Etna Green
on July %, was in Warsaw on Sun

owner and driver of the automobile,

and mentally, but is able to walk
around. AS was stated in former re-
ports, Mr.. Brooks was unconscious
for many days and his life was de-
SPARED of for many weeks. His
mind is still affected. 1t will be re-
called that Mr.. Thorning escaped
with practically no injuries.
Attorneys l.. +. Long and ID. j Ca
bic. of Lima, Ohio, were in Warsaw
On Sunday and Monday and on both
days visited the scene Of the acct
dent. On Monday they engaged Geo.
f. Houser, the Wa saw photographer
to take pictures of the crossing.
Much time was spent in taking
measurements and in collecting other

The attorneys returned to Lima Mon
day noon.

WHERE INDIANA LEADS.
Chicago Evening Journal Eritorially
Gives Our State Due Credit.

The following article is taken
from the Chicago Evening Post. 1t
shows the estimation in which the
country school system of our state
is held by that powerful and alert
newspaper:
Unknow to jewellers in cities. and
in the greater part of this country
agricultural area, there has begun
IN the last few years, revolution
that means the ultimate and of the
old-fashioned, one-room district
school, and should prove a strong in-
fiuence toward ending the movement
from the farm to the city.
INDIANA is the leader in the re-
volution, which has spread rapidly
TO other states, and which within a
few years, is likely to replace the
$4,000 country schools with One-third
that number of well-e1uipped two
story schools. each in its miniature
farm of ten acres, and with a staff
of highly-trained specialists.
Public conveyances will bring
children in the morning and take
them home in the afternoon. The
sphere of instruction will be broad
ened. Girls will learn something of
home economies. Boys will be
taught the elements of scientific
farming. Every farm in touch with
the school will be Influenced to pro-
gress.
The revolution of the district school
means ultimately a revolution of
farm methods and farm life. Indi-
ana is to be congratulated on lead
ing movement that promises to
be of such benefit TO the nation.

The rainfall of last week seems to

the new growth caused by the rains,

WEST INDIES SUGAR.

A pamphlet recently issued entitled
West Indies and Canada in 191O' con-
tains the following:
The principal sugar producing is
lands Of the group are Jamaica, Anti
qua, ST. Kits, Barbados, st. Lucia and
Trinidad. The book verifies our es-
innate of 5000 tons for the total pro-
duction of the small islands.
In the presidency, consisting of the
islands of st. Kits, Nevis and An
guilla, about 1900 acres are now de-
voted to sugar production, and the SUI
gar exports in 10000 amounted to
1O,049 tons. Plans are being made
for the erection of a modern central
on st. Kits.
The average sugar production of An
tigua ranges from 10000 to $4,000
tons. Owing to unfavorable weather
conditions the production of sugar in
1909 was considerably below the aver
age, amounting only to $500 tons, of
which 400 tons were SO deg. crystals
and $500 tons muscovados. For the
manufacture of crystals there are two
central factories, both of which are
doing successful work.
On the Island of st. Lucia there are
four centrals equipped with the best
machinery.
On the Virgin Islands there are
about ten very primitive mills driven
by animal power. A small modern
mill worked by an oil engine has re-
