ocALA'S JAMES j. HILL
Mr.. Rentz Pays $4,000 for Shipment
of Steel Rails


of Steel Rails
The last estimate of steel rails
necessary for the completion of the
Ocala and Northern railroad, amount
ing to $4,000 will be accepted and
paid for in Jacksonville today by
President E. p. Rentz, who reach
ed the city yesterday.
The rails are 70-pounders, and were
bought from the Carnegie Steel Com
pany. The laying of rails on the
Ocala and Northern is going on now
at rate of mile a day. The con-
tract calls for the completion of the
work by September Is, and the con-
tractors are already well ahead OF
their schedule.
Indications are that trains will be
operating over the entire distance of
fifty-two miles by the middle of Sep
TENDER. The opening of the road
from Ocala to Palatka will shorten
the distance between Ocala by thirty
miles. President Rentz has placed
orders for Baldwin locomotives of the
best type. The passenger trains will
be electrically lighted and provided
with electric fans and ventilators.
The equipment is to be delivered
about the first of September.
The Ocala and Northern is already
in operation to Orange Springs, and is
regarded as one of the best paying
short lines in the state. Railroad
men have already begun to figure
whether the line will be required in
the future plans of the Seabord Air
Line or Atlantic Coast Line. A rich
territory will be opened up.-Times-

a New Comet

The new comet, l9l1-b, discovered at
Lick Observatory OH the 9th of last July,
may now be seen by the naked eve, says
Alfred Rordame, a Salt Lake astronomer
1t is nearly off the fifth magnitude and
appears i'll the Eastern sky near the
seven stars shortly after | O'Clock III the
morning and moves toward the south
west.
The comet and nucleus are distng-
Unstable but the tail is very faint. 1t is
expected that the comet will shortly be-
come more brilliant and makes a SPLEEN
did spectacle. The planet Venus is now
visible in daylight and on may see It
standing in a shadow at about ) O'Clock
in the afternoon and looking directly
south about half way between the zenith
and the horizon With the aid OF a
small telescope or opera glass 1t appears
as a crescent, or very young moon.

NEVADA AS A
WHEAT STATE

Would it not be great If Nevada should
turn out to be the great wheat state of
the Union? asks the Salt Lake Telegram.
We know a company that has great
ranch in Nevada, and talking to one of
the members recently asked, ''how
much of your land can be irrigated?
His reply was, "A good deal, several
thousand acres But he said that is not
all. There are 30, 600 acres of that land
where by actual experiment there is an
abundance of water four feet below the
surface Now if wheat can be sown
after the first rains i'll the fall enough to
moisten the land, and make the wheat
begin to grow, the wheat roots will
follow down until they find water That
has been done here near Nephi and the
wheat this year is six feet tall and the
owners do not know yet how many
bushels per acre it will yield. The
writer has seen wheat roots where the
bank OF the river has caved out running
down five feet That was on the Yuba
river it will find the water sure. The old
rule was that a wheat root was as long as
the stalk above the ground, which we do
not doubt is true i'll garvelly ground If
there is clay supersoil, ii is not that be
cause it will stop at the clay; but where
it has chance it will follow down to
the water, like a grape. The grape is
the most marvellous of them all. That
will 90 down twenty feet to our certain
knowledge. We have seen it where it
has followed down crevices in rocks and
where the crevices were nearly closed by
the rock on both sides. the grape would
fatten out to an inch wide and perhaps
quarter of an inch in thickness, and then
when it got through that where it could
have room, it would resume its original
shape.
But what we began to say was that if
Nevada has much soil thus equipped it
has an area enough to be the foremost
wheat state in the Union.

"CORNED BEEF"
RAILROAD TIES

The Southern Pacific railroad company
has had 10000 ties picked" in the
Great salt Lake, along the line of the
Ogden-l.ucin cut off The ties have
been in the salt water three years and
are now being loaded on cars for
shipment To the Hazen cutoff to be given
an actual service test in alkali soil, says
the Ogden Standard.
Pilng is also being preserved i'll the
salt water, as excellent results have been
obtained in the great trestle across
the lake, which, since the day II was
placed, has shown deterioration.
There are ties in the old Promontory
line of the Central Pacific, which were
placed there forty years ago and have
not decayed, proving the preservative
qualities of the salt formation i'll which
they were encased.
The preserving of ties and piling in
Great Salt Lake may become an import
ant industry, if the experiments now
being worked out are as successful as
the tests already indicate.
There is one drawback to the use OF
these mineralized ties on the main line
of the Southern Pacific. The ties are SO
heavily impregnated with salt that they
act as ground" to the electric current
in the block signal service. Where the
block signal is not employed the ties can
