FOR ROAD BUILDING.

AT the council meeting Tuesday
night Mayor Parsons offered an ordi
nance providing that the City OF
Cairo be added to the newly formed
road district. The adoption of this
ordinance is asked by the business
interests Of the city generally, be-
cause il is necessary in order that
Cairo may secure roads in the eoun-
ty that will be feeders to the city.
These roads cannot be built from the
road tax collected in the district
outside OF the city, because the sum
that may be collected under thu law
is too small and Cairo can not con
tribute toward building them, ex-
cept by becoming a part Of the dis.
trict through an ordinance Of the
city council.
The sum collected as road tax in
the city Of Cairo will be about ST. 1000
a year, or this sim one-half is used
by the city for street repairs, etc,
and the other half goes toward ex-
tending or repairing the roads out
side Of the city. If the city does not
Joined itself to- the road district, then
no road tax can be collected, and the
$4,000 which it gets from that source
for street repairs, etc, must be got
ten in some other way or the repair
work cannot be done. and the treets
must suffer accordingly
The demand for "a road to the
hills has been of long standing in
Cairo, and mas been heard with re-
newed Vigor at intervals. 1t is gen
orally recognized that one effective
way to build up a city commercially
Is to make it accessible from all d.
rectons, by neighboring communl.
ties and especially by the farming
element in the vicinity. Cairo az
we'll as the farmers in the central
and upper portion OF the county haH
long felt the need Of roads that
would permit them to establish clos
er relationship, and the people d
this city have made efforts in this
direction at various times, buidina
what is known as the Mound Cit,
road to point four miles beyond the
city limit. at one time, and at an
other even contributing $1,000 to builC
a road in Kentucky from East Cairo
eastward
The ordinance now before the cit,
council is in line with t11is spirit, ant
in line also with the petition numer
ously signed by the business men o
Cairo and presented recently to tn
Board Of County Commissioner ask
ing that body to extend the boundar

Tho Use Of tho Paragraph on Aero.
planes and Balloons.

What the compass is to the mariner
the Paragraph is to the aviator. The
Paragraph is IN instrument for meas
uring attitudes The pressure Of the
air us it increases or decreases causes
delicate needle to trace wavy line
clockwork. This line indicates not
only the exact height that is reached
by the aviator, but also the speed at
which he is travelling
The Paragraph is kept in weather
proof box with glass front, which is
attached to bar Of the aeroplane or
to a rope on the balloon. 1t is official
ly sealed before the aviator embarks,
so there is no possibility of tampering
with it, and the seal is taken off in
the presence Of witnesses at the emo
of the flight. In this way it is posi-
BILE to establish absolutely and graph
1cally the altitude which an aviator
attains in his aeroplane or balloon.
1t is necessary for the aviator to
watch the ba rograph constantly, as it
indicates change in the elevation al
most to the foot. The sky pilot has to
keep his eye on the indicator much as
the man at the wheel of the seagoing
ship watches his compass. Should the
aeroplane or the balloon rise or fall
ten or twenty feet the aviator would
not be conscious Of it unless he looked
at the wavering needle tracing its
permanent record on a chart before
him. This tells him Immediately Of
any changes in the nature of the air
currents and gives him timely warning
of aerial dangers.
These Instruments are so delicate
and so accurate. it Is said, that a man
might hang one Of them about his
neck in it's glass case or carry it in his
hand and climb fight Of stairs, the
height Of his ascent being graphically
indicated by the linked needle on the
machine.-New York Press.

ISSUES ITS ANNUAL REPORT

Washington, D. c., Nov. 10.-Bum-
per crops, led by corn with the great
est harvest ever gathered, were pro-
duced by the farmers of the United
States during this year. In general
review of the crop conditions issued
today the bureau of statistics of the
department of agriculture says:
Harvests of 1910 have been prac-
tically completed with results exceed
ing expectations during the growing
period. Preliminary estimates have
been made of the production of the
most of the important crops from
which it appears that the aggregate
production of the crops in 1910 are
approximately rs per cent greater
than the crops of 1909. And about 81
greater than the average annual pro-
duction of the preceding five years.
Prices for important crops averaged
on November 1 about 5.4 per cent
lower than year ago.
