DREDGE. -'WiLL ARRIVE HERE
NEXT WEEK TO START ON
PLANTATION CREEK
New Canal TO Be Cut Through to Al
tamaha River Which Will Avoid
Rough Trip Across Sound by the
Fresh Water Boats.

The government is preparing to be-
gin active work on Club and Plan
tatlon creeks, under an appropriation
made by congress at the last session.
1t is understood that large dredge,
which is now at work in Savannah,
will ar; in Brunswick next week
and at oE - begin work under the
supervision OF the local engineers
Office.
As is we'll known. this aproria-
tion NY congress was made for the
purpose of widening and deepening
the two creeks mentioned, making
them navigable to fresh water BOATS,
and the work will be extended from
the mouth of Plantation creek. lust
north of the quarantine station, all
the way through to the Altaihaha
river. 1t will be necessary in sever
al places to do considerable dredg-
ing and in quite a. large number of
places in 10th creeks changes will
have to be made, that is the creeks
will more or less be Strengthened.
thus reducing the distance from the
Alamaha river to the Brunswick
river.
sWhen this work is completed
fresh water boats will be able to en-
ter the port of Brunswick without
passing through ST. Simon sound,
which is now necessary and which
is dangerous to these craft. In
rough weather it is almost impossi-
BILE for these stern-wheel Eoats to
pass over the sound and any time
they are liable to be swamped. Con
gresham Brantley used his efforts In
congress to secure an appropriation
to connect Plantation and Club
creeks and make them navigable in
order to avoid the trip across the
sound. The appropriation was made
some time ago and survey of the
two creeks was completed ty the To-
cal engineers several weeks age.
1t is not known which dredge will
he sent here to do this important
piece of work, but it is understood
that one has been ordered out from
Savannah and will arrive here next
week.

MANY CITIZENS
FAVOR THE PLAN
OF HAVING TEST VOTE ON COM.
MISSION FORM OF GOVERN.
MENT AT PRIMARY.
Believed That the Voters Will Be
Given Opportunity to Say Whether
or Not They Favor Change in the
Form of Government.

Leading business men OF Bruins
wick yesterday heartily inGorsed
the article in The News, suggesting
that a test vote on the commission
form OF government be made at the
November primary, and it is now
believed that the questions will be
added to the tickets and the volers
VIII be given. an opportunity to say
whether or not they are in favor of
operating their city by a commission
rather than ty a mayor and council.
A News reporter yesterday discus.
sed the question with a number of
the best known business men in the
city. and everyone of them seemed
to be in favor of the plan of making
test vote. All OF them. however.
We're not in favor of the commission
form of government. but they were
all willing to submit the question to
the voters.
AS stated in the article Yesterday
morning. it will not cost a cent to
have this test made. as the two uues.
tions, for and against the plan. can
be added to the regular tickets to be
voted for mayor and aldermen at the
primary.
1t is more than probable that some
definite steps will be taken to have
the city executive committee add
these questions to the tickets. The
con mittee will not meet until after
the registration books close. which is
more than a month hence.
Brunswick business men are evinc-
ing much interest in this new form
Of operating city and which has al
ready been adopted by large num-
Der of cities, and it IS believed that
a test vote will show that large
majority of the voters of the city are
in favor of adopting the new plan and
thus eliminating, if possible, the con
tinual political fights in Brunswick.
The question is not at all a new one,
having been tried by other cities
years ago, and though there has
never been any active steps taken
here, various Brunswick business
men have been advocating the plan
for many months.
There is no reason why the voters
should not be given an opportunity to
express themselves. and it is beliey-
ed that the executive committee will
order the two questions placed on
the hottom of the tickets to be vot-
ed in November

HOUSEHOLD NOTES
BY Mrs. Maud E. ciIIsy.

Many delicate and nervous people.
who cannot digest iron tonic. should
eat spinach, which contains more iron
than even the yoke of an egg. Onions
are also an excellent nervine.
Woollen blankets should be put away
in boxes lined with newspapers and "a
few pieces Of cotton, saturated with
turpentine. should be put in the corners
of the boxes to keep out moths.
Tablecloths. napkins and towels
should be darned neatly on the wrong
side as soon as they become thin and
worn and before the thread breaks
1t viii make them last much better and
look better.
n the lamp smokes or gives n poor
light. it may be merely dirty. Take
the lamp apart, boil the burner in
soda water and pour scalding hot wa
ter through the tubes and connecting
rods.
Flatirons should not be left on the
back of the stove where they have no
chance to lose their heat They should
be put away in a cool place where 1t
is dry, so that they will not rust.
Small white Spots on the finger nails
may be removed by bandaging them at
night with a linen cloth spread with
a mixture of myrrh and turpentine. In
the morning bathe the fingers in olive
oil.
Salt and vinegar added to the water
in which fish is boiled, will serve to
whiten and harden the fish. A tea
spoonful Of salt and a tablespoonful of
vinegar TO two quarts of water is the
right proportion.
Bananas are nourishing. but many
children cannot eat them without pro-
longed indigestion. If they arc mash
ed with a fork and beaten to a cream
they will not harm the smallest child,
and can be eaten with a spoon
Stains can be removed from marble
with the following mixture: a gill of
soapsuds and oxgall. half a gill of tur-
pentine and as much fullers earth as
will make a paste. Rub on the stains
and leave for a few days.
When pressing seams on heavy ma
terial. put the iron down heavily, hold
it there a moment then lift il up and
put it down a little further along. This
does not put the seam out Of shape
as running 1t along does.
A suggestion in whipping cream is
10 whip it in the upper part of double
boiler. with fine ice or cold water
placed in the lower part. An added
advantage of this arrangement is that
the boiler is deeper than bowl, and
there is less spattering.
To test butter, take clean piece
Of white paper. smear a little Of the
butter on Il. roll the paper up and set
on fire. If the butter be pure. the
smell will be rather pleasant but If it
is made up wholly OF In part Of animal
fat Il will smell like tallow.
When the milk supply is limited for
any cause, save the water in which the
rice is boiled. When this is allowed
to stand until 1t is jellied it makes an
economical substitute for milk and can
be used in all the cream soups and need
not the thickening with butter and -four
/ that milk must have.
