Standardizing the Worlds Maps.


The idea of a standard map of the world
was hrst proposed by Prof. Albrecht
Penck at the international geographical
congress, Berne in 1891 He clearly show
ed the advantages that would result il the
nations should cooperate in producing
world map on the comparatively large
scale Of one-mllionth Ill 900, OuO). or 1873
statue miles 40 an inch. The project was
heartily approved BY this and lat .r con-
crosses. committees were appointed to
promote the movement, and Great Brit
ain. Germany and France began to make
maps on the required scale. Little prac-
tlcal progress, however, was made till
after DR.. Gdnnett reported that our gov
eminent could not publish the sheets he
was preparing because no agreement had
been reached "a TO the color scheme and
other essential details. No general plan
lad been adopted for the uniform produc-
ton OF these map-sheets. He therefore
presented. through DR.. Day of Washing
iop, recommendation TO the interna-
iIonal geographical congress at Geneva,
in ig>, To appoint a commission TO work
out uniform plan for producing the
map.
This plan was prepa red b. the Geneva
congress. and il was decided TO submit IL
10 conference of the map-making ma
lions. which was accordingly convened by
the British government in London i'm No
pietely successful, it's decisions were final
and the map-makers OF all nations were
at last in q position TO cooperate in car
Tying out the plan.
This fortunate result involved mutual
concessions. but the plan as perfected was
heartily and unanimously adopted. Green
witch is tn be the initial meridian. The
metric scale for distances and for alti-
tudes above level will be used but
nations not employing metric measure
ments may add in parentheses their
equivalents in miles. feet. versts and SO
on. The symbols adopted to represent
rivers. rail and other roads, towns etc,
practically include all the conventions
used by the United States geological sur
vey on its Topographic survey sheets. The
Latin alphabet alone will be used and
spellings are to be those of the official
maps of each country. We shall see
Roma not Rome; Wien. not Vienna: and
the rule will discourage the tendency OF
German map-makers to spell the name OF
our greatest city 'Neu York. The spell
ing OF Chinese place names will be that OF
the imperial post and customs service
whose maps and yellow books give both
the Chinese characters and their eQuiva
lent in Latin type.

JACKSON. Miss. Nov. 6-Antagonism
within the ranks OF Mississippi DemOc-

has grown to such an extent that cir
eular letter has been sent broadcast over
the state urging Democrats to vote at
the general election Tuesday for the
Socialist nominee. J. T. Lester. grand
son Of former Governor Poindexter.
So widely has the circular been dis
tributed that BilbO's friends issued a
statement from Jackson denouncing it.
BfIho as state senator was tried twice
and exonerated OF the charge Of trib-
cry. and early in the late primary cam
paign which is practically equivalent TO
election IN Mississippi. became entangied
IN a difficulty with John J. Henry. a
former prison guard, IN which Senator
BiIbo was subjected to such a severe
beating that he had to take to his bed.
Apathy on the part OF Democratic Tot-

in the general election is evidently con-
sidsred an asset by those who seek to
dfeat Bilbo.

Cutting Down on
Grain Foods

Farmers and feeders make a Sc
rious mistake when they cut down
on the amount of grain food that
they feed their dairy cattle and
fattening animals during the win
ter. There may be some animals
on the farm that can be carried
along through the winter on mod
crate rations, but dairy cattle and
fattening stock do not belong to
that class.
The farm teams that are not be-
ing worked do not require a full
ration of grain feed during the
winter, but it is costly economy to
rough them through the winter on
short rations. The horse that is
allowed to run down in flesh con-
dition can not do as efficient SER
vice during the springs work as he
could if he were well fed during
the winter. No man ever made
more money feeding live stock just
enough to keep them alive.
In feeding fattening stock and
dairy cows, gain and profit come
in proportion to the amount of food
the animals put to use. The fat
tening animals and dairy cows
should have no set-baclSs. and the
best feeders know when to feed
high priced grain foods and are
not afraid to feed full rations.
Dairy cows should have rich and
liberal feeding every day. If they
are allowed to shrink in their flow
of milk it requires weeks to get
them back to their normal condi-
ton and milk yield. Regular and
liberal feeding are two things that
must not be neglected and no man
can make money out of live stock
who conducts his feeding on any
other basis.

Of Value to HorSemen.

Do you turn your horses out for the
winter? If so, we want to call your
attention to a very important matter.
Horses which have been used steadily
at work, either on the farm or road,
have quite likely had some strains
whereby lameness or engagements have
been caused. Or perhaps new life Is
needed TO be infused into their legs.
Gombault Caustic Balsam applied as
per directions, just as you are turning
the horse out, will be of great benefit;
and this is the time when 1t can be
used very successfully. One great ad-
vantage in using this remedy is that
after it is applied 1t needs no care or
attention. but does it's work we'll and at
a time when the horse is having rest.
of course it can be used with equal sue
cess while horses are in the stable, but
many people in turning their horses out
would use Caustic Balsam if they were
reminded of it. and this article is
given as a reminder.
