Horse Meat for Export.

Trenton, N. j., Sept 25.-That
New Jersey has within its borders
an establishment engaged in the
business of canning and picking
horseflesh shipped to Holland for
food purposes, was officially brought
to the attention Of the state board
of health at its meeting here today.
The board referred the case to At
torney General Wilson, requesting
him to take such action as the cir
cumstances would warrant. The
complaint was presented by DR.. H.
B. Fitzgerald, head of the pure food
department of the state board, and
was based upon evidence furnished
by the bureau of chemistry of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, which had been secretly
watching the establishment for sew
eral months. The federal authori-
ties had collected evidence which
satisfied them that the Schwartz
Bros. Co., of Kearney, had been
carrying on an illicit business. The
government alleged that the most
insanitary conditions prevailed at
the plant. According to the evil
dence obtained by secret service
men worn out, emaciated animals
found their way to the plant. The
investigation started by DR.. Harvey
Nv. Wiley, chief of the chemistry
bureau, practically had to be aban-
doned by the government because
of leak through which Schwartz
Bros. were warned that they were
being watched, After this, it is al
legged, no more shipments were
made abroad, and the government
being left without jurisdiction, the
case was placed in the hands of the
state authorities for prosecution
under its laws.

Large Production of Lime.

One OF our practically ineXhausti-
bic natural resources is lime. The
available iimestonce rock widely
distributed over the the United
States cannot be estimated even in
millions or billions of tons. 1t is a
fact also that the more lime is
thrown away" scattered over the
ground the better it is for the
country. Lime is a great soil reno
VatOr, and while 1t is believed to
have no actual fertilizing value in
the sense of being in itself a plant
food, it is a well-known fact not on
ly among farmers. but among soil
scientists, that spreading it upon
the fields and blowing it under
makes many soils more productive
by rendering available the plant
food they already contain. Lime
has also a great variety of other
highly important uses; in fact, few
mineral products have so wide a
scope of usefulness.
A little more than half the lime
manufactured IN the United States
is used as structural material in
lime mortarS. Portland cement NOR
tars, concrete, gypsum plasters, and
whitewash. Large quantities are
also used in the manufacture OF
chemicals, in clarifying many
products, in the milling and paper
industries, in sanitation, in the
smelling and thinning industries, il
sugar-beet manufacture, etc.
The total production of lime il
1910, according to figures compiled
by Ernest F. Burchard and just Civ
en- out by the United States Geolog
Iical Survey, was 9,469.416 shor
tons, valued at $13,8O9,29O, a Sigh
decrease in both tonnage and value
as compared with the figures TO
1909. The average price per ton
in 1910 was $398.

When Frenchmen so inquire;
While Egypt's friendly greeting

A Playground for Children.

A suitable playground for chill
dren has long been accepted as a
definite need in our cities and larg-
er towns. But it is only recently
that the need of the country child
for regulated play has been recog-
nized. 1t has been assumed that
boys and girls who live in the coun-
try among the many resources that
nature offers need nothing further
in their play development. But the
fact has to be faced that the coun.
try child knows often less than the
city child how to play, and needs
equally direction and guidance if
the play life is to have its greatest
value.
The solving of this problem in a
small Vermont town is full of
suggestiveness.
The village is a small one, having
a few thousand inhabitants. There
was no park or public square of any
kind. but there was an energetic

Much of the best literature has

The OreamaWay Place.

The DreamaWay Place.
The Dreamaway Place is down by
the brook,
In a cool retreat where tall trees
grow;
The moss is soft in the shadowy
nook,
And there's music made by the
waters flow,
And you lie at ease and upward
look,
And dream the happiest dreams
you know
A great rock shelters the Dreama-
away Place,
Affording ever the coolest shade
The green leaves waver like filmy
lace,
A fairy veil Ger the whole spot
laid
And lilies bow with winning grace
On the edge of the brook in the
quiet glade.
Oh, the Dreamaway Place is a rem
edy sure
For worry and heartache and
petty care.
And the wild bird, song can al

And a tonic |. rks in the scented

The spirit groweth strong and pure,

Free Scholarship In the
School OF Your
Choice.

of Moberly, Mo, is positively the
only business college in the state
which teaches thorough course Of
practical, modern bookkeeping and
business training. Other schools
teach theoretical bookkeeping; some
of them call it actual business, but
it is not. The commercial room of
the Moberly Commercial College is
a community of business houses of
various kinds: Banks, wholesale,
commission, real estate, retail in
suranCe, etc. Each student is en-
Gagged in real active business work,

try made by the student during
his entire course is originated by an
actual sale or purchase; it may be
grain, it may be groceries, dry goods,
real estate, or stock in a corpora

performed and every paper Tequir-
ed in the transaction, whether
check, note, draft, receipt, mortgage,
deed or what not, is filled out by
the student; contracts of partner

between the parties forming the
partnership; articles of incorpora-
ton are drawn up. Thru these prac-
tical methods, the student learns
business as well as bookkeeping.
they learn how to meet one anoth-
er face to face and transact bust

copying theoretical transactions
from text book, as is done in every
other commercial school in the

AN Advertising Campaign For
Paris"

terests of Paris, in a very truthful
and sensible manner last week.
What is said of conditions at Paris
is practic lily true OF Monroe. City. |
We hope every business ma in
Monroe City will read and ponder. |
1t has long since been proven that
waiting for luck or a special shower
of providence is not good business
pc icy.
Four years ago Paris merchants,
with no thought of concerted effort,
engaged in a brisk advertising cam
paign through t local papers and
70 a space of two years kept it up.
The results were that tn town en-
joyed the greatest trade revival it
has experienced in a quarter of a
century, custom in number Of in
stances being drawn from adjoining
counties. Just as suddenly, SEEM
ingly content with what had been
accomplished, they quit, and the re-
suits are just as palpable. For a
year past the local papers. which
between them 60 into raCtically
every home within a radius Of
twenty miles of the town, have
been appearing four weeks out of
| five empty to the chases. Three
firms have done practically a the
advertising and that has been mod
est" both as to space and perSisten-
cy, The grocers either carry per-
functory card, sometimes not that
or take a reckless shot at long in
tervals. The clothiers do fairy
well and the dry goods men
better, two firms doing all the per-
sistent advertising done. Hardware
comes in occasionally, drug sundries
seldom ever, and furniture never.
One shoe firm is making a credita-
bic beginnin.. the other does moth
ing, and only a few weeks ago an
Illinois subscriber to the Mercury
wrote to know if there was real
estate firm in town, also whom to
write il regard to insurance. Meth
er line of business carries a line of
advertising here, though papers at
other places carry a big run Of it.
!. Harness well, the list could be
multiplied to include every bust
ness in Paris. The town has prac-
tically laid down and is evidently
depending on a downpour of mama.
At the same time merchants in
towns close by are bombarding
Paris trade territory with live and
bristling page and half page ads,
and it is telling. The Paris papers
turn down foreign advertising and
are expected to. A parcels post
would make them rich (mail order
houses pay stiff ratesl but they are
supposed to have the interests Of
the town at heart first of all things
and to make any sort of sacrifice
necessary. a rather stiff demand SC
long as business is business" They
are expected to boost the town il
