COMPETING DETECTIVE
SYSTEMS TO CRUSH OUT
THE AST cPIMIMAIc

From the Philadelphia North American.
No more chance for the bank robber.
Agile, elusive, astute, fiealike as his
whole history has shown this arch
crook of America to be. he is at least
between the upper and the neither mill
stones Of the guardians Of the law, and
it looks as though the grinding, SO long
delayed, is at last to crush him into
nothingnesS.
1t comes about through competition.
1t may be the life of trade; but both
the laws authorities and the crooks
experts are saying just about now that
competition is the death of the crook.
Not his WI competition-far from
that. 1t is the newly developed compe-
Itition which now prevails between rival
organizations for the protection of the
banks of the United States. Two rival
organizations, one of years of expert
ence and the other Of recent formation,
but headed by famous thieftakers, are
strain1ng like hounds on the scent to
prove that no forger, bank snatcher,
burglar or yegg can infringe upon the
sanctity of bank funds and get away
with it immune.
One Of them is fighting for the enor-
nous prestige and the immense profits
which should ultimately attach to the
business of a protective system known
as the dependence OF American bank
ers; the other to maintain the distinc-

With Its castles gleamy golden
In the sltnlight's misty fire,
And the glory OF this city
WiIn Irs portals rich anu rare
Fills the soul with dreamy visions,

O! the sunburst OF the glories
From the city's golden strand,
Where the air Is filed with doors
From across the fioWery land;
AS We journey toward the dawning
BY the murmuring restless sea.
Where the. bil1owy waters roll
Past Gods eternity.
We can e the sounds immortal
As we watch the oceans swell.
And our hearts are filled with yearnings
AS we glance q sad farewell,
Oh the glory that is beaming
From this city far-away
As we peer into its portals
In the harbor by the bay.

USES OF AGRICULTURAL LIME
Aid to Fertility Of Land Realized By the
Southern Farmers.

Atlanta, Capitalization by farm
ers of the southeast of the great
benefits to be secured by the use Of
agricultural lime and consequent
.'apid increase in the consumption Of
that product, are indicated in the re-
port of the freight traffic department
of the Southern Railway Company for
May. The report shows that plants
turning out this products at points on
the Southern Railway in Virginia now
have daily capacity of 5000 barrels
and that additions and Improvements
now in progress and prospect will in
crease this output to 5000 barrels dai-
ly in a short time, while only few
years ago the entire capacity was
rs barrels per day.
The use of agricultural lime and its
benefcent effects, particularly on sour
soil lacking nitrogen and consequent
ly deficient in plant food, is attracting
the attention of soil experts and agri-
cultural writer's as are few other sub
jects at this time A most interest
ing paper showing the good effects to
be obtained, entitled bulletin No. l."
mas been issued by the Virginia Truck
Experiment Station, located at Nor
folk. A number of bulletins on the
same subject have been issued by the
means of soils of the United States
department of agriculture from which
copies can be procured by farmers and
anyone interested in soil improve
ment.
The government experiments and
the experiences of individual farmers
which are dealt with in these bulle-
tins should prove of unusual interest
to planters and farm land owners vi
the South Atlantic States, since it is
declared that in great many sections
of this territory, where land is less
productive than in more favored pOr
tions of the southeast, the lack of fer
tility is, in a large measure, due to
the acidity of the soil. Experiments
by the federal and state department
of agriculture have developed the fact
that this can be corrected by the
application of lime and the growing
of leguminous plants. Lands which
had been abandoned as practically
worthless have been brought to a
high state of productiveness in this
manner as pointed out in the state
and government publications, which
Lime is not used in place of man
ure or commercial fertilizers, its use
being entirely supplementary, and one
of it's chief advantages being the
power which it gives soil to retain
the manure or fertilizer applied to it.
There are large deposits of lime
rock in practically every section OF
the southeast and its use for agricul-
tural purposes has been the basis of
the great fertility of the famous Blue
Grass region of Kentucky, the Great
Valley of Virginia, the fertile coun-
try of Tennessee and northern Ala
bama and other notably productive
areas. The Southern Railway Compa-
ny is endeavoring to encourage the
use of this product, which the farm
ers of the south can find practically
at their doors both by urging the
erection of more plants for it's prep
aration and by granting favorable
tariffs for the transportation of the
product,

ANTI-TYPH0D VACCINE.
French Doctor Discovers Preventlv
for Typhoid Fever

CItSu 1OStOI DISNONCIo
for Typhoid Fever,
Paris, France.-Professor Vincent
announced before the Academy OF
Medicine the discovery Of an effective
anti-typhoid vaccine which is prepar-
ed by sleeping typnus bacilli in a
weak solution of water and sodium
chloride common SALTY with an ad-
mixture of ether.
Professor Vincent made number
of experimnets with animals which,
after being vaccinated, witbstood sub
sequent innocufation with typhoid
germs. He then vaccinated 13 per-
sons, an examination of whose blood
after the operation showed that it
possessed to high degree properties
destructive of the typhoid bacillus.
Further experiments demonstrated
the fact that typhoid bacilli when plac-
ed in contact with the serum of the
blood taken from the person vacci-
mated, lost all vitality.
New York City-The announce.
ment from Paris of the discovery of
a new anti-typhoid vaccine is likely
to prove of considerable interest to
American medical men. According to
an announcement by Commissioner
Eugene H. Porter of the New York
state department of health, there are
more cases Of typhoid in the United
States than any other country. Thir-
teen hundred deaths from typhoid
were reported in this state in 1909
